SPARTA
COMMERCIAL SERVICES, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 2019
(Unaudited)
NOTE
A – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A
summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the
preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements follows.
Business
Sparta
Commercial Services, Inc. (“Sparta,” “we,” “us,” or the “Company”)
is a Nevada corporation serving three markets. Sparta is a
technology company that develops, markets and manages business
mobile application (mobile apps) for smartphones and tablets. The
Company also owns and manages websites which sell on-demand
motorcycle, recreational vehicle, power-sport vehicle and truck
title history reports for consumers, retail dealers, auction
houses, insurance companies and banks/finance companies.
Notwithstanding our discontinuance of consumer financing, we
continue to offer, on a pass through basis, an equipment-leasing
product for local and state agencies throughout the country seeking
an alternative and economical way to finance their essential
equipment needs, including police motorcycles and cruisers, buses
and EMS equipment. The Company also introduced a new business line
in the rapidly expanding Hemp-CBD (cannabidiol) market.
Our
roots are in the Powersports industry and our original focus was
providing consumer and municipal financing to the powersports,
recreational vehicle, and automobile industries (see Discontinued
Operations). Presently, through our subsidiary, iMobile Solutions,
Inc. (“IMS”), we offer mobile application development, sales,
marketing and support, and Vehicle Title History
Reports.
Our
mobile application (mobile app) offerings have broadened our base
beyond vehicle dealers to a wide range of businesses including, but
not limited to, racetracks, private clubs, country clubs,
restaurants and grocery stores. We also offer a private label
version of our mobile app framework to enable other businesses to
offer custom apps to their customers.
The
Company also designs, launches, maintains, and hosts websites for
businesses. We provide specific, tailored action plans for our
clients’ websites that include services such as eCommerce, CRM
(Customer Relationship Management) development and integration,
ordering system creation and integration, SEO (search engine
optimization), social media marketing, and online reviews to
improve their presence online. In addition, we offer text messaging
services which are vital for businesses’ marketing, retention and
loyalty strategies. Our text messaging platform allows our clients
to easily manage, schedule, and analyze text message
performance.
Our
vehicle history reports include Cyclechex (Motorcycle History
Reports at www.cyclechex.com); RVchecks (Recreational
Vehicle History Reports at www.rvchecks.com); CarVINreport
(Automobile at www.carvinreport.com) and Truckchex (Heavy
Duty Truck History Reports at www.truckchex.com). Our
Vehicle History Reports are designed for consumers, retail dealers,
auction houses, insurance companies and banks/finance
companies.
New
World Health Brands, Inc. (NWHB) was formed in April 2019 as a
subsidiary and new business line of Sparta Commercial Services,
Inc. While anticipating, and with the passing of the 2018 Farm
Bill, which resulted in the removal of hemp (CBD) from Schedule 1
of the Controlled Substances Act. Sparta’s management recognized a
substantial potential business opportunity in the rapidly expanding
Hemp-CBD (Cannabinol) market in the United States. During
2018-2019, management sourced, developed and tested 5 CBD product
categories totaling 31 products, procured product packaging,
labeling, implemented fulfillment and launched an on-line B to C
website, www.newworldhealthcbd.com.
Basis of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
as of October 31, 2019 and for the three and six month periods
ended October 31, 2019 and 2018 have been prepared by the Company
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, including Form 10-Q and Regulation S-K. The
information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals and adjustments), which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the operating
results for the respective periods. Certain information and
footnote disclosures normally present in annual financial
statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America have been
omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The Company
believes that the disclosures provided are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading. These unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the audited consolidated financial statements and explanatory
notes for the year ended April 30, 2019 as disclosed in the
Company’s Form 10-K for that year as filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The results of operations for the six months
ended October 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for any other interim period or the full
year ending April 30, 2019.
SPARTA COMMERCIAL SERVICES, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 2019
(Unaudited)
The
condensed consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 2019 contained
herein has been derived from the audited consolidated financial
statements as of April 30, 2019, but do not include all disclosures
required by the U.S. GAAP.
Principles of Consolidation
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its majority owned subsidiary. All material
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in
consolidation. The third party ownership of the Company’s
subsidiary is accounted for as noncontrolling interest in the
consolidated financial statements. Changes in the noncontrolling
interest are reported in the statement of changes in
deficit.
Estimates
These
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in United States of
America which require management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and the
disclosures of revenues and expenses for the reported period.
Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Included in these estimates are assumptions about collection of
accounts receivable, useful life of property and equipment,
beneficial conversion feature of convertible notes payable,
deferred income tax asset valuation allowances, and valuation of
derivative liabilities
Discontinued Operations
As
discussed in Note C, in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 the
Company’s Board of Directors approved management’s recommendation
to discontinue the Company’s consumer lease and loan lines of
business and the sale of the Company’s entire portfolio of
performing RISCs, and a portion of its portfolio of leases. The
sale was consummated in that quarter. The assets and liabilities
have been accounted for as discontinued operations in the Company’s
consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. The
operating results related to these lines of business have been
included in discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated
statements of operations for all periods presented.
Revenue Recognition
During
the first quarter of 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue
from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), using the
cumulative-effect method. The new standard requires an entity to
recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to
customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the
entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or
services. The adoption did not have an impact in our consolidated
financial statements, other than the enhancement of our disclosures
related to our revenue-generating activities. The Company acts as a
principal in its revenue transactions as the Company is the primary
obligor in the transactions.
Revenues
from mobile app products are generally recognized upon delivery.
Revenues from history reports are generally recognized upon
delivery / download. Prepayments received from customers before
delivery (if any) are recognized as deferred revenue and recognized
upon delivery.
Cash Equivalents
For
the purpose of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements, all highly liquid investments with an
original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash
equivalents.
Fair Value Measurements
The
Company has adopted ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements (“ASC
820”).” ASC 820 establishes a three-level fair value
hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used
to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to
unadjusted quoted prices in active markets the lowest priority to
unobservable inputs to fair value measurements of certain assets
and Liabilities. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under
ASC 820 are described below:
· |
Level
1 — Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 1 assets and liabilities include debt and equity securities
and derivative contracts that are traded in an active exchange
market, as well as certain securities that are highly liquid and
are actively traded in over-the-counter markets. |
SPARTA COMMERCIAL SERVICES, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 2019
(Unaudited)
· |
Level
2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets;
quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that
are not active; and model derived valuations in which all
significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in
active markets. |
|
|
· |
Level
3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no
market activity and that are significant to the fair value
measurements. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial
instruments whose value is determined using pricing models,
discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques based on
significant unobservable inputs, as well as management judgments or
estimates that are significant to valuation. |
This
hierarchy requires the Company to use observable market data, when
available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when
determining fair value. For some products or in certain market
conditions, observable inputs may not always be
available.
Income Taxes
We
utilize ASC 740 “Income Taxes” which requires the
recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected
future tax consequences of events that have been included in the
financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred
income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future
years of differences between the tax bases of assets and
liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at year-end based
on enacted laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods
in which the differences are expected to affect taxable
income.
The
Company recognizes the impact of a tax position in the financial
statements only if that position is more likely than not of being
sustained upon examination by taxing authorities, based on the
technical merits of the position. Our practice is to recognize
interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income
tax expense.
Stock Based Compensation
We
account for our stock based compensation under ASC 718
“Compensation – Stock Compensation” using the fair value
based method. Under this method, compensation cost is measured at
the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized
over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. This
guidance establishes standards for the accounting for transactions
in which an entity exchanges it equity instruments for goods or
services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs
liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the
fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be
settled by the issuance of those equity instruments.
We
use the fair value method for equity instruments granted to
non-employees and use the Black-Scholes model for measuring the
fair value of options. The stock based fair value compensation is
determined as of the date of the grant or the date at which the
performance of the services is completed (measurement date) and is
recognized over the vesting periods.
Inventories
The
Company’s inventories represent finished goods, consist of products
available for sale and are accounted for using the first-in,
first-out (FIFO) method and valued at the lower of cost or net
realizable value. Inventory consists of finished goods for the
Company’s New World Health business.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial
instruments and related items, which potentially subject the
Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of
cash, cash equivalents and receivables. The Company places its cash
and temporary cash investments with high credit quality
institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of the
FDIC insurance limit.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 2019
(Unaudited)
Net Loss Per Share
The
Company uses ASC 260-10, “Earnings Per Share” for
calculating the basic and diluted loss per share. The Company
computes basic loss per share by dividing net loss and net loss
attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding. Common equivalent shares are excluded
from the computation of net loss per share if their effect is
anti-dilutive.
At
October 31, 2019 and 2018, approximately 4.280 billion potential
shares (including 81,786,511 shares to be issued on the balance
sheet) and 1.728 billion potential shares (including 78,786,511
shares to be issued on the balance sheet), respectively, were
excluded from the shares used to calculate diluted earnings per
share as their inclusion would reduce net loss per
share.
Derivative Liabilities
The
Company assessed the classification of its derivative financial
instruments as of October 31, 2019 and April 30, 2019, which
consist of convertible instruments and rights to shares of the
Company’s common stock, and determined that such derivatives meet
the criteria for liability classification under ASC 815.
ASC
815 generally provides three criteria that, if met, require
companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host
instruments and account for them as freestanding derivative
financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances
in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded
derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the
economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the
hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative
instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value
under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles
with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and
(c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded
derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument
subject to the requirements of ASC 815. ASC 815 also provides an
exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be
conventional, as described.
Convertible Instruments
The
Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in
its convertible instruments in accordance with professional
standards for “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities”.
The
Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has
determined that the embedded conversion options should not be
bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with
professional standards when “Accounting for Convertible Securities
with Beneficial Conversion Features,” as those professional
standards pertain to “Certain Convertible Instruments.”
Accordingly, the Company records, when necessary, discounts to
convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options
embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the
fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of
the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in
the note. Debt discounts under these arrangements are amortized
over the term of the related debt to their earliest date of
redemption. The Company also records when necessary deemed
dividends for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in
preferred shares based upon the differences between the fair value
of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note
transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the
note. ASC 815-40 provides that, among other things, generally, if
an event is not within the entity’s control could or require net
cash settlement, then the contract shall be classified as an asset
or a liability.
Reclassifications
Certain
reclassifications have been made to conform to prior periods’ data
to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no effect
on reported losses.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In
February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No.
2016-02 (Topic 842) “Leases.” Topic 842 supersedes the lease
requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 840,
“Leases.” Under Topic 842, lessees are required to recognize assets
and liabilities on the balance sheet for most leases and provide
enhanced disclosures. Leases will continue to be classified as
either finance or operating. The Company adopted Topic 842
effective May 1, 2019 using a modified retrospective method and
will not restate comparative periods. Adoption of this ASU did not
have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements.

(Unaudited)
A
variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are
currently under study by standard setting organizations and various
regulatory agencies. Due to the tentative and preliminary nature of
those proposed standards, we have not determined whether
implementation of such proposed standards would be material to our
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
NOTE
B – GOING CONCERN MATTERS
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the
realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the
normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has
incurred recurring losses and generated negative cash flows from
operating activities since inception. As of October 31, 2019, the
Company had an accumulated deficit of $62,790,069 and a working
capital deficit (total current liabilities exceeded total current
assets) of $12,010,426. The Company’s cash balance and revenues
generated are not currently sufficient and cannot be projected to
cover its operating expenses for the next twelve months from the
filing date of this report. These factors among others raise
substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a
going concern for a reasonable period of time.
The
Company’s existence is dependent upon management’s ability to
develop profitable operations. Management is devoting substantially
all of its efforts to developing its business and raising capital
and there can be no assurance that the Company’s efforts will be
successful. No assurance can be given that management’s actions
will result in profitable operations or the resolution of its
liquidity problems. The accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a
going concern.
In
order to improve the Company’s liquidity, the Company’s management
is actively pursuing additional equity financing through
discussions with investment bankers and private investors. There
can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its
effort to secure additional equity financing.
NOTE
C – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In
the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors
approved management’s recommendation to discontinue the Company’s
consumer lease and loan lines of business and the sale of all of
the Company’s portfolio of performing RISCs and a portion of its
portfolio of leases. The sale was consummated in that quarter. The
assets and liabilities have been accounted for as discontinued
operations in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets for all
periods presented.
The
operating results related to these lines of business have been
included in discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated
statements of operations for all periods presented. The following
table presents summarized operating results for the discontinued
operations.

Certain
of the notes payable contain variable conversion rates and the
conversion features are classified as derivative liabilities. The
conversion prices are based on the market price of the Company’s
common stock, at discounts of 30% - 48% to market value. At October
31, 2019, the Company has reserved 238,630,500 shares of its common
stock for issuance upon the conversion of debentures.
Amortization
of debt discount for the three month periods ended October 31, 2019
and 2018 was $975 and $22,552, respectively.
Amortization
of debt discount for the six month periods ended October 31, 2019
and 2018 was $7,800 and $50,685, respectively.
The
Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of embedded
derivatives related to the outstanding short term Convertible Notes
Payable. These embedded derivatives include certain conversion
features indexed to the Company’s common stock. The accounting
treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the
Company record the derivatives and related items at their fair
values as of the inception date of the Convertible Notes Payable
and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. In
addition, under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification
subtopic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging; Contracts in Entity’s Own
Equity (“ASC 815-40”), as a result of entering into the Convertible
Notes Payable, the Company is required to classify all other
non-employee stock options and warrants as derivative liabilities
and mark them to market at each reporting date. Any change in fair
value inclusive of modifications of terms will be recorded as
non-operating, non-cash income or expense at each reporting date.
If the fair value of the derivatives is higher at the subsequent
balance sheet date, the Company will record a non-operating,
non-cash charge. If the fair value of the derivatives is lower at
the subsequent balance sheet date, the Company will record
non-operating, non-cash income.
The
change in fair value of the derivative liabilities at October 31,
2019 was calculated with the following average assumptions, using a
Black-Scholes option pricing model are as follows:

NOTE
G – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The
Company follows the guidance established pursuant to ASC 820 which
established a framework for measuring fair value and expands
disclosure about fair value measurements. ASC 820 defines fair
value as the amount that would be received for an asset or paid to
transfer a liability (i.e., an exit price) in the principal or most
advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants on the measurement date.
ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an
entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the
use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820
describes the following three levels of inputs that may be
used:
Level
1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible
at the measurement date for identical assets and liabilities. The
fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1
inputs.
Level
2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active
markets but corroborated by market data.
Level
3: Unobservable inputs when there is little or no market data
available, thereby requiring an entity to develop its own
assumptions. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to
Level 3 inputs.

I – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Operating Lease Commitments
Our
executive offices are located in New York, NY. We have an agreement
for use of office space at this location under a sub-lease which
expired on July 31, 2018, and continues on a month-to-month basis
thereafter. The monthly base rent is $4,800.
Rent
expense was $13,650 and $9,000 for the three month periods ended
October 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Rent expense was $27,200
and $22,250 for the six month periods ended October 31, 2019 and
2018, respectively.
Litigation
The
Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims which arise in
the ordinary course of its business. Sparta can make no
representations about the potential outcome of such
proceedings.
As of
October 31, 2019, we were not a party to any material pending legal
proceeding except as stated below. From time to time, we may become
involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in
the ordinary course of business.
The
Company has received notices dated April 1, 2016, May 13, 2016 and
July 22, 2016 from two lenders claiming defaults relating to
conversion requests of $8,365 principal and $643 interest and
$5,000 principal, with regard to notes in the total amounts of
$55,125 and $27,500, respectively, which the Company has refused to
process and believes it has defenses in that regard. The company
believes these claims are contingent, unliquidated and disputed.
There can be no assurance that the Company would prevail should
litigation with regard to any of these requests occur. These
liabilities have been recorded in the unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements.
On
September 22, 2016, a motion for summary judgment in lieu of
complaint was filed in the Supreme Court of The State of New York
County of Kings, against the Company by a lender for the amount of
$102,170.82 in principal and interest; accrued and unpaid interest
thereupon in the amount from the date of filing to entry of
judgment herein; lender’s reasonable attorney’s fees, costs, and
expenses; and any such other relief as the Court deems just and
proper. Plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment in lieu of
complaint was denied on May 5, 2017. On August 22, 2018,
Plaintiff brought a second motion seeking summary judgment on the
issue of liability which was denied on March 14, 2019. The Court
found that there existed issues of fact warranting a trial. The
Company believes the claim is contingent, unliquidated and
disputed. There is no assurance that the Company will prevail in
this litigation. These liabilities have been recorded in the
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
On
October 26, 2018, a lender commenced an action in the Supreme Court
of the State of New York in New York County alleging damages from
unpaid principal and interest, attorney’s fees, costs, and expenses
arising from a promissory note dated February 26, 2015 in the
amount of $50,000.00. The case is presently in the discovery phase
of the litigation. The Company believes the claim is contingent,
unliquidated and disputed.

RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Comparison
of the Three Months Ended October 31, 2019 to the Three Months
Ended October 31, 2018
For
the three months ended October 31, 2019 and 2018, we have generated
limited sales revenues, have incurred significant expenses, and
have sustained significant losses.
Revenues
Revenues
totaled $94,788 during the three months ended October 31, 2019 as
compared to $106,325 during the three months ended October 31,
2018, an $11,537 or 10.8% decrease. Revenues from continuing
operations in both periods were from the sale of Information
technology products. NWHB products were not offered in the prior
year. Information technology product revenues declined $28,651 or
26.9% while NWHB revenues were $17,144 for the current period.
Other income in the 2019 and 2018 three month periods was comprised
primarily of municipal lease fee income.
Cost of Revenue
Cost
of revenue consists of costs and fees incurred to third parties to
construct and maintain mobile apps, as well as fees for
subscription services related to vehicle history reports and costs
of NWHB products inventoried for resale. Cost of revenue was
$16,884 during the three months ended October 31, 2019 as compared
to $5,938 during the three months ended October 31, 2018. This
$10,946 or 184.3% increase was due to a decrease in third party
costs incurred for Information technology products and the cost of
NWHB inventory.
Operating Expenses
General
and administrative expenses were $279,006 during the three months
ended October 31, 2019, compared to $304,915 during the three
months ended October 31, 2019, a decrease of $25,909 or 8.5%,
primarily due to overall reductions in expense due to management’s
efforts to reduce overhead. Expenses incurred during the current
three month period consisted primarily of the following expenses:
Compensation and related costs, $146,512; Accounting, audit and
professional fees, $6,947; Consulting fees, $32,899; and Rent,
utilities and telecommunication expenses $19,924. Expenses incurred
during the comparative three month period in 2018 consisted
primarily of the following expenses: Compensation and related
costs, $162,680; Accounting, audit and professional fees, $34,040;
Consulting fees, $39,118; Rent, utilities and telecommunication
expenses $24,852.
Other (income) expense
Other
(income) expense is comprised primarily of interest and financing
costs and expense related to the change in fair value of our
derivative liabilities. Other income was $1,078,790 for the three
months ended October 31, 2019, compared to a loss of $1,329,807 for
the three months ended October 31, 2018, a decrease in other
expense of $2,408,597 or 181.1%. The decrease results from our
borrowing activities and the related costs, primarily an increase
in gain from the change in fair value of our derivative instruments
of $1,873,954, or 387.5%. The change in the fair value of our
derivative liabilities resulted primarily from our borrowing
activities and the changes in our stock price and the volatility of
our common stock during the reported periods.
Discontinued Operations
As
discussed in NOTE C to the unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements, in August 2013, the Company’s Board of
Directors approved management’s recommendation to discontinue the
Company’s consumer lease and loan lines of business and the sale of
all of the Company’s portfolio of RISCs, and a portion of its
portfolio of leases. The sale was consummated in that quarter. The
assets and liabilities have been accounted for as discontinued
operations in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets for all
periods presented.
The
operating results related to these lines of business have been
included in discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated
statements of loss for all periods presented. The following table
presents summarized operating results for those discontinued
operations.

Net income (loss)
Our
net income attributable to common stockholders for the three months
ended October 31, 2019 increased by $2,414,360 or 156.6% to
$873,016 from a loss of $1,541,344 for the three months ended
October 31, 2018. This increase attributable to common stockholders
for the three months ended October 31, 2019 was primarily due to
the factors discussed above.
Comparison
of the Six Months Ended October 31, 2019 to the Six Months Ended
October 31, 2018
For
the six months ended October 31, 2019 and 2018, we have generated
limited sales revenues, have incurred significant expenses, and
have sustained significant losses.
Revenues
Revenues
totaled $180,017 during the six months ended October 31, 2019 as
compared to $209,992 during the six months ended October 31, 2018,
a decrease of $29,975 or 14.3%. Revenues from continuing operations
in both periods were from the sale of Information technology
products while the current period includes revenues from NWHB
products. Revenues Information technology revenue declined $59,351,
28.3% from $209,992 to $150,641. NWHB revenues were $29,376. Other
income in the 2019 and 2018 six month periods was comprised
primarily of municipal lease fee income.
Cost of Revenue
Cost
of revenue consists of costs and fees incurred to third parties to
construct and maintain mobile apps, as well as fees for
subscription services related to vehicle history reports and costs
of NWHB products inventoried for resale. Cost of revenue was
$31,671 during the six months ended October 31, 2019 as compared to
$17,699 during the six months ended October 31, 2018. This $13,972
or 78.9% increase was due to an increase in third party costs
incurred and the cost of NWHB inventory.
Operating Expenses
General
and administrative expenses were $503,715 during the six months
ended October 31, 2019, compared to $619,281 during the six months
ended October 31, 2018, a decrease of $115,566 or 18.7%, primarily
due to overall reductions in expense due to management’s efforts to
reduce overhead. Expenses incurred during the current six month
period consisted primarily of the following expenses: Compensation
and related costs, $297,943; Accounting, audit and professional
fees, $24,078; Consulting fees, $40,034; and Rent, utilities and
telecommunication expenses $42,168. Expenses incurred during the
comparative six month period in 2018 consisted primarily of the
following expenses: Compensation and related costs, $333,871;
Accounting, audit and professional fees, $41,680; Consulting fees,
$103,119; Rent, utilities and telecommunication expenses
$43,013.
Other (income) expense
Other
(income) expense is comprised primarily of interest and financing
costs and expense related to the change in fair value of our
derivative liabilities. We also reported other income of $311,127
of debt forgiveness. Net other expense was $511,335 for the six
months ended October 31, 2019, compared to $661,299 for the six
months ended October 31, 2018, a decrease in net other expense of
$149,964 or 22.68%. The decrease results from our borrowing
activities and the related costs. The change in the fair value of
our derivative liabilities resulted primarily from our borrowing
activities and the changes in our stock price and the volatility of
our common stock during the reported periods and the addition of
derivative warrant liabilities.
Discontinued Operations
As
discussed in NOTE C to the unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements, in August 2013, the Company’s Board of
Directors approved management’s recommendation to discontinue the
Company’s consumer lease and loan lines of business and the sale of
all of the Company’s portfolio of RISCs, and a portion of its

Net loss
Our
net loss attributable to common stockholders for the six months
ended October 31, 2019 decreased by $226,440 or 20.6% to $875,307
from a loss of $1,101,747 for the six months ended October 31,
2018. This decrease in net loss attributable to common stockholders
for the six months ended October 31, 2019 was primarily due to the
factors discussed above.
LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of
October 31, 2019, we had an accumulated deficit of $62,790,069 and
a total deficit of $12,436,281. We generated a deficit in cash flow
from operations of $331,541 for the six months ended October 31,
2019. This deficit results primarily from our net loss of $867,061,
partially offset by noncash net expense of $525,069 and an increase
of $373,844 in accounts payables and accrued expenses.
We
met our cash requirements during the period through proceeds from
the issuances of convertible and other notes of $50,000, and we
sold preferred stock for proceeds of $299,000, we repaid notes in
the amount of $5,500.
We do
not anticipate incurring significant research and development
expenditures, and we do not anticipate the sale or acquisition of
any significant property, plant or equipment, during the next
twelve months. At October 31, 2019, we had 7 full time employees.
If we fully implement our business plan, we anticipate our
employment base may increase during the next twelve months. As we
continue to expand, we will incur additional cost for personnel.
This potential increase in personnel is dependent upon our
generating increased revenues and obtaining sources of financing.
There is no guarantee that we will be successful in raising the
funds required or generating revenues sufficient to fund the
potential increase in the number of employees. Our employees are
not represented by a union.
While
we have raised capital to meet our working capital and financing
needs in the past, additional financing is required in order to
meet our current and potential future cash flow deficits from
operations.
We
continue to seek additional financing, which may be in the form of
senior debt, subordinated debt or equity. We currently have no
commitments for financing that are not at the investor’s election.
There is no guarantee that we will be successful in raising the
funds required to support our operations.
We
estimate that we will need approximately $1,000,000 in addition to
our normal operating cash flow to conduct operations during the
next twelve months. However, there can be no assurance that
additional private or public financing, including debt or equity
financing, will be available as needed, or, if available, on terms
favorable to us. Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to
stockholders and such additional equity securities may have rights,
preferences or privileges that are senior to those of our existing
common or preferred stock. Furthermore, debt financing, if
available, will require payment of interest and may involve
restrictive covenants that could impose limitations on our
operating flexibility. However, if we are not successful in
generating sufficient liquidity from operations or in raising
sufficient capital resources, on terms acceptable to us, this could
have a material adverse effect on our business, results of
operations, liquidity and financial condition, and we will have to
adjust our planned operations and development on a more limited
scale.
The
effect of inflation on our revenue and operating results was not
significant. Our operations are located in North America and there
are no seasonal aspects that would have a material effect on our
financial condition or results of operations.
GOING
CONCERN ISSUES
The
independent auditors report on our April 30, 2019 and 2018
consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual
Report states that the Company’s historical losses and the lack of
revenues raise substantial doubts about the Company’s ability to
continue as a going concern, due to the losses incurred and its
lack of significant operations. If we are unable to develop our
business, we have to discontinue operations or cease to exist,
which would be detrimental to the value of the Company’s common
stock. We can make no assurances that our business operations will
develop and provide us with significant cash to continue
operations.
In
order to improve the Company’s liquidity, the Company’s management
is actively pursuing additional financing through discussions with
investment bankers, financial institutions and private investors.
There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in its
effort to secure additional financing.
We
continue to experience net operating losses. Our ability to
continue as a going concern is subject to our ability to develop
profitable operations. We are devoting substantially all of our
efforts to developing our business and raising capital. Our net
operating losses increase the difficulty in meeting such goals and
there can be no assurances that such methods will prove
successful.
The
primary issues management will focus on in the immediate future to
address this matter include: seeking additional credit facilities
from institutional lenders; seeking institutional investors for
debt or equity investments in our Company; short term interim debt
financing: and private placements of debt and equity securities
with accredited investors.
To address these issues, the Company has, from time to time, engage
a financial advisory firms to advise and assist us in negotiating
and raising capital.
INFLATION
The
impact of inflation on the costs of the Company, and the ability to
pass on cost increases to its customers over time is dependent upon
market conditions. The Company is not aware of any inflationary
pressures that have had any significant impact on the Company’s
operations over the past quarter, and the Company does not
anticipate that inflationary factors will have a significant impact
on future operations.
OFF-BALANCE
SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
The
Company does not maintain off-balance sheet arrangements nor does
it participate in non-exchange traded contracts requiring fair
value accounting treatment.
CRITICAL
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The
preparation of our financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our
reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our
estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various
other assumptions, we believe to be reasonable under the
circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from our
current expectations and assumptions. While there are a number of
significant accounting policies affecting our financial statements,
we believe the following critical accounting policy involves the
most complex, difficult and subjective estimates and
judgments.
Revenue Recognition
Information
Technology:
The
Company recognizes revenue when the following criteria have been
met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, no significant
Company obligations remain, collection of the related receivable is
reasonably assured, and the fees are fixed or determinable. The
Company acts as a principal in its revenue transactions as the
Company is the primary obligor in the transactions.
Revenues
from mobile app products are generally recognized upon delivery.
Revenues from History Reports are generally recognized upon
delivery / download. Prepayments received from customers before
delivery (if any) are recognized as deferred revenue and recognized
upon delivery.
Stock-Based Compensation
The
Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting
Standard Codification Topic 718 (“ASC 718-10”), which records
compensation expense on a straight-line basis, generally over the
explicit service period of three to five years.
ASC
718-10 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based
payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model.
The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected
to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods
in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company
is using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as its method of
valuation for share-based awards. The Company’s determination of
fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using
an option-pricing model is affected by the Company’s stock price as
well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and
subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited
to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of
the awards, and certain other market variables such as the risk
free interest rate.
Convertible Instruments
The
Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in
its convertible instruments in accordance with professional
standards for “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities” (“ASC 815-40”).
The
Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has
determined that the embedded conversion options should not be
bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with
professional standards when “Accounting for Convertible Securities
with Beneficial Conversion Features,” as those professional
standards pertain to “Certain Convertible Instruments.”
Accordingly, the Company records, when necessary, discounts to
convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options
embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the
fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of
the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in
the note. Debt discounts under these arrangements are amortized
over the term of the related debt to their earliest date of
redemption. The Company also records when necessary deemed
dividends for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in
preferred shares based upon the differences between the fair value
of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note
transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the
note. ASC 815-40 provides that, among other things, generally, if
an event is not within the entity’s control could or require net
cash settlement, then the contract shall be classified as an asset
or a liability.
Derivative Liabilities
The
Company assessed the classification of its derivative financial
instruments as of October 31, 2019 and April 30, 2019, which
consist of convertible instruments and rights to shares of the
Company’s common stock, and determined that such derivatives meet
the criteria for liability classification under ASC 815.
ASC
815 generally provides three criteria that, if met, require
companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host
instruments and account for them as freestanding derivative
financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances
in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded
derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the
economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the
hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative
instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value
under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles
with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and
(c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded
derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument
subject to the requirements of ASC 815. ASC 815 also provides an
exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be
conventional, as described.

RISK
Not
applicable.
ITEM
4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We
maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule
13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act that are designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the
reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods
specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is
accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief
Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate
to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We carried
out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation
of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and
Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure
controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e)
and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of October 31, 2019. Based
on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, and
in light of the material weaknesses found in our internal controls,
the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer
concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end
of the period covered by this report were not effective.
A
material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies,
in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a
reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual
or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected
on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a
combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial
reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet
important enough to merit attention by those responsible for
oversight of the company’s financial reporting. In our assessment
of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting
as of October 31, 2019, we determined that control deficiencies
existed that constituted material weaknesses, as described
below:
● |
lack
of documented policies and procedures; |
● |
we
have no audit committee; |
● |
there
is a risk of management override given that our officers have a
high degree of involvement in our day-to-day
operations; |
● |
there
is no effective separation of duties, which includes monitoring
controls, between the members of management. |
Due to our
size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not
always be possible and may not be economically feasible. As a
result, we have not been able to take steps to improve our internal
controls over financial. However, to the extent possible, we will
implement procedures to assure that the initiation of transactions,
the custody of assets and the recording of transactions will be
performed by separate individuals. Management is currently
evaluating what steps can be taken in order to address these
material weaknesses.
Accordingly,
we concluded that these control deficiencies resulted in a
reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual
or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected
on a timely basis by our internal controls.
As a
result of the material weaknesses described above, management has
concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over
financial reporting as of October 31, 2019 based on criteria
established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission
(COSO).
In
light of these significant deficiencies, we performed additional
analyses and procedures in order to conclude that our consolidated
financial statements for the six months ended October 31, 2019
included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q were fairly stated
in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, management believes that
despite our significant deficiency, our consolidated financial
statements for the six months ended October 31, 2019 are fairly
stated, in all material respects, in accordance with U.S.
GAAP.
There
was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as
defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during
the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that has materially
affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our
internal control over financial reporting.
Management
does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our
internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect
all error and fraud. Any control system, no matter how well
designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can
provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its
objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can
provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud
will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud,
if any, within the Company have been detected.

1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
As at
October 31, 2019, we were not a party to any material pending legal
proceeding except as stated below. From time to time, we may become
involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in
the ordinary course of business.
The
Company has received notices dated April 1, 2016, May 13, 2016 and
July 22, 2016 from two lenders claiming defaults relating to
conversion requests of $8,365 principal and $643 interest and
$5,000 principal, with regard to notes in the total amounts of
$55,125 and $27,500, respectively, which the Company has refused to
process and believes it has defenses in that regard. The company
believes these claims are contingent, unliquidated and disputed.
There can be no assurance that the Company would prevail should
litigation with regard to any of these requests occur. These
liabilities have been recorded in the unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements.
On
September 22, 2016, a motion for summary judgment in lieu of
complaint was filed in the Supreme Court of The State of New York
County of Kings, against the Company by a lender for the amount of
$102,170.82 in principal and interest; accrued and unpaid interest
thereupon in the amount from the date of filing to entry of
judgment herein; lender’s reasonable attorney’s fees, costs, and
expenses; and any such other relief as the Court deems just and
proper. Plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment in lieu of
complaint was denied on May 5, 2017. On August 22, 2018,
Plaintiff brought a second motion seeking summary judgment on the
issue of liability which was denied on March 14, 2019. The Court
found that there existed issues of fact warranting a trial. The
Company believes the claim is contingent, unliquidated and
disputed. There is no assurance that the Company will prevail in
this litigation. These liabilities have been recorded in the
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
On
October 26, 2018, a lender commenced an action in the Supreme Court
of the State of New York in New York County alleging damages from
unpaid principal and interest, attorney’s fees, costs, and expenses
arising from a promissory note dated February 26, 2015 in the
amount of $50,000.00. The case is presently in the discovery phase
of the litigation. The Company believes the claim is contingent,
unliquidated and disputed.
