PRELIMINARY
PROSPECTUS
SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS TO PURCHASE UP TO
300,000,000 UNITS
CONSISTING OF UP
TO 300,000,000 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
AND WARRANTS TO PURCHASE UP TO 210,000,000 SHARES OF COMMON
STOCK
We
are distributing to holders of our common stock, $0.001 par value, at no charge, up to 300,000,000 non-transferable subscription
rights to purchase units. Each unit consists of one share of common stock and 0.70 of a warrant. Each whole warrant will be exercisable
for one share of our common stock. We refer to the offering that is the subject of this prospectus as the rights offering. In
the rights offering, you will receive two subscription rights for every share of common stock owned at 5:00 p.m., Eastern
Time, on February 22, 2018, the record date of the rights offering. The common stock and the warrants comprising the units
will be separate upon the closing of the rights offering and will be issued separately but may only be purchased as a unit, and
the units will not trade as a separate security. The subscription rights will not be tradable. Each subscription right consists
of a basic subscription right and an over-subscription privilege, which we refer to as the subscription right.
Each
subscription right will entitle you to purchase one unit, which we refer to as the basic subscription right, at a subscription
price per unit equal to $[●]. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one whole share of common stock
at an exercise price of per share equal to $[●] from the date of issuance through its expiration 5 years from the
date of issuance. In the event that holders exercise subscription rights for in excess of $5 million (not including the over-subscription
privilege), the amount subscribed for by each person will be proportionally reduced, based on the amount subscribed for by each
person (not including any over-subscription privilege subscribed for). If you exercise your basic subscription rights in full,
and any portion of the units remain available under the rights offering, you will be entitled to an over-subscription privilege
to purchase a portion of the unsubscribed units at the subscription price, subject to proration based on the number of shares
of common stock owned on the record date, which we refer to as the over-subscription privilege.
You
may only purchase the number of whole units purchasable upon exercise of the number of basic subscription rights distributed to
you in the rights offering, plus the over-subscription privilege, if any. Accordingly, the number of units that you may purchase
in the rights offering is limited by the number of shares of our common stock you held on the record date and by the extent to
which other stockholders exercise their basic subscription rights and over-subscription privileges, which we cannot determine
prior to completion of the rights offering.
The
subscription rights will expire if they are not exercised by 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on March 27, 2018, unless the rights
offering is extended or earlier terminated by the Company. There is no minimum number of subscription rights that must be exercised
in this rights offering, no minimum number that any subscription rights holder must exercise, and no minimum number of units that
we will issue at the closing of this rights offering. If we elect to extend the rights offering, we will issue a press release
announcing the extension no later than 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on the next business day after the most recently announced expiration
date of the rights offering. We may extend the rights offering for a period not to exceed 30 days in our sole discretion. Once
made, all exercises of subscription rights are irrevocable.
We
have engaged Advisory Group Equity Services, Ltd., d/b/a RHK Capital (referred to herein as “RHK Capital”) as dealer-manager
for this offering.
We
are conducting the rights offering to raise capital that we intend to use for general corporate purposes. Our independent registered
public accounting firm in its report on the January 1, 2017 financial statements has raised substantial doubt about our ability
to continue as a going concern. We had cash on hand in the amount of $104,135 as of October 1, 2017. We estimate that the current
funds on hand will be sufficient to continue operations through January 2018. See “Use of Proceeds”.
You
should carefully consider whether to exercise your subscription rights prior to the expiration of the rights offering. All exercises
of subscription rights are irrevocable, even if the rights offering is extended by our board of directors.
If
we amend the rights offering to allow for an extension of the rights offering for a period of more than 30 days or make a fundamental
change to the terms of the rights offering set forth in this prospectus, you may cancel your subscription and receive a refund
of any money you have advanced. Our board of directors may cancel the rights offering at any time prior to the expiration of the
rights offering for any reason. In the event the rights offering is cancelled, all subscription payments received by the subscription
agent will be returned, without interest, as soon as practicable.
In
the event that the exercise by a stockholder of the basic subscription right or the over-subscription privilege could, as determined
by the Company in its sole discretion, potentially result in a limitation on the Company’s ability to use net operating
losses, tax credits and other tax attributes, which we refer to as the “Tax Attributes,” under the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, which we refer to as the “Code”, and rules promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service,
the Company may, but is under no obligation to, reduce the exercise by such stockholder of the basic subscription privilege or
the over-subscription privilege to such number of shares of common stock as the Company in its sole discretion shall determine
to be advisable in order to preserve the Company’s ability to use the Tax Attributes.
Our
board of directors is making no recommendation regarding your exercise of the subscription rights. The subscription rights may
not be sold, transferred or assigned and will not be listed for trading on any stock exchange or market.
Shares
of our common stock are traded on the OTCQB under the symbol “GIGL”. On February 7 , 2018, the closing sales
price for our common stock was $0.019 per share. The shares of common stock issued in the rights offering will also be traded
on the OTCQB under the same symbol.

TABLE
OF CONTENTS
COMPANY
OVERVIEW
Business
Overview
Giggles
N Hugs is a unique restaurant concept that brings together high-end, organic food with the play elements and entertainment for
children. Giggles N Hugs offers an upscale, family-friendly atmosphere with a play area dedicated to children ages 10 and younger.
The restaurant has a high-quality menu made from fresh, organic foods that are enjoyed by both children and adults. With nightly
entertainment, such as magic shows, concerts, puppet shows, face painting and arts and crafts, Giggles N Hugs is a destination
for families seeking healthy food in a casual and fun atmosphere.
In
addition to its family-friendly vibe, Giggles N Hugs is also known for its own creation called “Mom’s Tricky Treat
Sauce,” which hides pureed vegetables in kids’ favorite meals such as pizza, pastas and macaroni and cheese.
The
founders, Joey Parsi and his wife, Dorsa, conceived the idea when they tried dining out with their own children, but spent the
entire evening attending to quieting their kids and avoiding disapproving stares. From this frustrating experience, they discovered
that there was a significant need for high-quality restaurants where play time, healthy food, and happy parents could converge.
This idea led to the creation of Giggles N Hugs, a destination for parents and kids to play and have fun while enjoying a gourmet
meal.
Our
restaurant offers a combination of high quality food and beverage with attentive service to ensure a memorable experience. Our
play areas are supervised by staff members who promote positive interaction, fun, and activities in such a way that their presence
often overshadows the presence of the vast number of toys and daily entertainment we offer. Our restaurant features kid-size castles,
giant climbers, a pirate ship, and a walk-on dragon, as well as tricycles, swings, bounces, and an abundant selection of
toys in each location. The Giggles N Hugs team is a group of individuals that have been hired and trained to reflect our core
beliefs of creating an environment for families to bond and interact with one another. We encourage our staff members to be more
than just employees, but instead to become friends with our guests. The family-friendly feel of the restaurant and play space
reflects its image and individuality in the marketplace.

of the rights offering.
Securities
Offered

We
are distributing to holders of our common stock, $0.001 par value, at no charge, non-transferable subscription rights to purchase
units. Each unit consists of one share of common stock and 0.70 warrant. Each whole warrant will be exercisable for one share

whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one whole share of common stock at an exercise
price of per share equal to $[●] from the date of issuance through its expiration
5 years from the date of issuance. A holder may not exercise any portion of the warrant
to the extent that the holder would beneficially own more than 4.99% of our outstanding
common stock after exercise, except that upon at least 61 days’ prior notice from
the holder to us, the holder may increase the amount of ownership of outstanding stock
after exercising the holder’s warrants up to 9.99% of the number of shares of our
common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage
ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the warrants. The foregoing limitation
on exercise does not apply to any holder who beneficially owns in excess of 4.99% of
our outstanding common stock immediately prior to the rights offering.

Procedures

to the subscription agent to be received before 5:00 PM Eastern Time, on March 27, 2018. You may deliver the documents

dealer, custodian bank, or other nominee to exercise your subscription rights on your behalf. Please follow the instructions

|
|
|
Subscription
Right
|
Each
subscription right consists of a basic subscription right and an over-subscription privilege.
|
|
|
Basic
Subscription Right
|
Each basic subscription right
will entitle you to purchase one unit at the subscription price per unit held by you
on the record date of February 22, 2018, subject to proration described elsewhere.
|
Use
of Proceeds
|
We
are conducting the offering to raise capital that we intend to use for general corporate purposes. Our independent registered
public accounting firm in its report on the January 1, 2017 financial statements has raised substantial doubt about our ability
to continue as a going concern. We had cash on hand in the amount of $104,135 as of October 1, 2017. We estimate that the current
funds on hand will be sufficient to continue operations through January 2018. See “Use of Proceeds”.
|
|
|
No
Board Recommendation
|
Our
board of directors is not making a recommendation regarding your exercise of the subscription rights. You are urged to make
your decision to invest based on your own assessment of our business and the rights offering. Please see “Risk Factors”
for a discussion of some of the risks involved in investing in our securities.
|
|
|
No
Revocation
|
All
exercises of subscription rights are irrevocable, even if you later learn information that you consider to be unfavorable
to the exercise of your subscription rights and even if the rights offering is extended for a period not to exceed 30 days
by our board of directors.
|
|
|
U.S.
Federal Income Tax Considerations
|
Our
U.S. tax counsel, Libertas Law Group, Inc., is of the opinion that the rights offering will not be part of a disproportionate
distribution, but certain aspects of that determination are not certain. This position is not binding on the Internal Revenue
Service (the “IRS”) or the courts, however. You should consult your own tax advisor as to the tax consequences
of the rights offering in light of your particular circumstances. See “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”
on page 34 . For further information, please see “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences”.
|
Extension,
Cancellation and Amendment
|
Although
we do not presently intend to do so, we may extend the rights offering for a period not to exceed 30 days. Our board of directors
may for any reason terminate the rights offering at any time before the completion of the rights offering.

common stock owned at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on February 22, 2018. Each subscription right will entitle the holder
to a basic subscription privilege and an over-subscription privilege.
What
are the basic subscription rights?
Basic
subscription right will entitle you to purchase one unit, at the subscription price, per share of common stock held by you on
the record date of February 22, 2018. Each unit consists of one share of common stock and 0.70 of a warrant. Each whole
warrant will be exercisable for one share of our common stock. For example, if you owned 100 shares of common stock as of the
record date, you will receive 100 subscription rights and will have the right to purchase 100 units consisting of 100 shares of
common stock and warrants to purchase 70 additional shares of our common stock. You may exercise all or a portion of your basic
subscription rights or you may choose not to exercise any basic subscription rights at all.
If
you are a record holder, the number of units you may purchase pursuant to your basic subscription rights is indicated on the enclosed
subscription rights certificate. If you hold your shares in the name of a broker, dealer, bank, or other nominee who uses the
services of the Depository Trust Company, or DTC, you will not receive a subscription rights statement. Instead, DTC will issue
two subscription rights to your nominee record holder for each share of our common stock that you own as of the
record date. If you are not contacted by your nominee, you should contact your nominee as soon as possible.
If
sufficient units are available, we will seek to honor your basic subscription request in full. In the event that holders exercise
subscription rights for in excess of $5 million (not including the over-subscription privilege), the amount subscribed
for by each person will be proportionally reduced, based on the amount subscribed for by each person (not including any over-subscription
privilege subscribed for).
See
“The Rights Offering — Limitation on the Purchase of Units” for a description of certain limitations on purchase.
What
is the over-subscription privilege?
If
you exercise your basic subscription rights in full, you may also choose to exercise your over-subscription privilege to purchase
a portion of any units that the other record holders do not purchase through the exercise of their basic subscription rights.
You should indicate on your subscription rights certificate, or the form provided by your nominee if your shares are held in the
name of a nominee, the aggregate amount you would like to apply to purchase units pursuant to your over-subscription privilege.
If
sufficient units are available, we will seek to honor your over-subscription request in full. If over-subscription requests exceed
the number of units available, however, we will allocate the available units pro-rata among the record holders exercising the
over-subscription privilege in proportion to the number of shares of our common stock each of those record holders owned on the
record date, relative to the number of shares owned on the record date by all record holders exercising the over-subscription
privilege. If this pro-rata allocation results in any record holders receiving a greater number of units than the record holder
subscribed for pursuant to the exercise of the over-subscription privilege, then such record holder will be allocated only that
number of units for which the record holder oversubscribed, and the remaining units will be allocated among all other record holders
exercising the over-subscription privilege on the same pro rata basis described above. The proration process will be repeated
until all units have been allocated. See “The Rights Offering — Limitation on the Purchase of Units” for a description
of certain limitations on purchase.
To
properly exercise your over-subscription privilege, you must deliver to the subscription agent the subscription payment related
to your over-subscription privilege before the rights offering expires. See “The Rights Offering — The Subscription
Rights — Over-Subscription Privilege.” To the extent you properly exercise your over-subscription privilege for a
number of units that exceeds the number of unsubscribed units available to you, any excess subscription payments will be returned
to you as soon as practicable after the expiration of the rights offering, without interest or penalty.
Our
subscription agent for the rights offering, will determine the over-subscription allocation based on the formula described above.
What
are the terms of the warrants?
Each
whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one whole share of common stock at an exercise price of per share equal to
$[●] from the date of issuance through its expiration 5 years from the date of issuance. A holder may not exercise any
portion of the warrant to the extent that the holder would beneficially own more than 4.99% of our outstanding common stock
after exercise, except that upon at least 61 days’ prior notice from the holder to us, the holder may increase the
amount of ownership of outstanding stock after exercising the holder’s warrants up to 9.99% of the number of shares of
our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in
accordance with the terms of the warrants. The foregoing limitation on exercise does not apply to any holder who beneficially
owns in excess of 4.99% of our outstanding common stock immediately prior to the rights offering.
May
I sell my warrants?
Subject
to applicable laws and the restriction on transfer set forth in the warrant, the warrant may be transferred at the option of the
holder upon surrender of the warrant to us together with the appropriate instruments of transfer. The warrants will not be listed
for trading on any stock exchange or market.
Will
fractional shares or warrants be issued upon exercise of subscription rights or upon the exercise of warrants?
No.
We will not issue fractional shares of common stock or warrants in the rights offering. Rights holders will only be entitled to
purchase a number of units representing a whole number of shares of common stock, rounded up to the nearest whole number of units
a holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase. Fractional warrants will be rounded down to the nearest whole number. Any excess
subscription payments received by the subscription agent will be returned as soon as practicable after expiration of the rights
offering, without interest or penalty. Similarly, no fractional shares of common stock will be issued in connection with the exercise
of a warrant. If, upon exercise of a warrant, the holder thereof would be entitled to receive a fractional share of common stock,
upon exercise, the holder will only be entitled to receive a whole number of shares of common stock, rounded up to the nearest
whole number.
What
effect will the rights offering have on our outstanding common stock?
On
February 2, 2018, 145,602,251 shares of our common stock were outstanding. Based on the foregoing, and assuming no other transactions
by us involving our common stock prior to the expiration of the rights offering, is fully subscribed for the maximim number of units available, approximately 445,602,251 shares of our
common stock will be issued and outstanding and warrants to purchase approximately 210,000,000 additional shares of our common
stock will be outstanding (excluding the currently outstanding warrants). The exact number of shares of common stock, warrants
that we will issue in this rights offering will depend on subscription price and the number of units that are subscribed for in
the rights offering.
How
was the subscription price formula determined?
Our
board of directors determined the subscription, taking into consideration, among other things, the following factors:
●
the current and historical trading prices of our common stock;
●
the price at which stockholders might be willing to participate in the rights offering;
●
the value of the warrant being issued as a component of the unit;
●
our need for additional capital and liquidity;
●
the cost of capital from other sources; and
●
comparable precedent transactions, including the percentage of shares offered, the terms of the subscription rights being offered,
the subscription price and the discount that the subscription price represented to the immediately prevailing closing prices for
those offerings.
In
conjunction with the review of these factors, our board of directors reviewed our history and prospects, including our past and
present earnings and cash requirements, our prospects for the future, the outlook for our industry and our current financial condition.
Our board of directors believes that the subscription price should be designed to provide an incentive to our current stockholders
to participate in the rights offering and exercise their basic subscription right and their over-subscription privilege.
The
subscription price does not necessarily bear any relationship to any established criteria for value. You should not consider the
subscription price as an indication of actual value of the Company or our common stock. We cannot assure you that the market price
of our common stock will not decline during or after the rights offering. You should obtain a current price quote for our common
stock before exercising your subscription rights and make your own assessment of our business and financial condition, our prospects
for the future, and the terms of this rights offering. Once made, all exercises of subscription rights are irrevocable.
Am
I required to exercise all of the basic subscription rights I receive in the rights offering?
No.
You may exercise any number of your basic subscription rights, or you may choose not to exercise any basic subscription rights.
If you do not exercise any basic subscription rights, the number of shares of our common stock you own will not change. However,
if you choose to not exercise your basic subscription rights in full, your proportionate ownership interest in the Company will
decrease. If you do not exercise your basic subscription rights in full, you will not be entitled to exercise your over-subscription
privilege.
How
soon must I act to exercise my subscription rights?
If
you received a subscription rights certificate and elect to exercise any or all of your subscription rights, the subscription
agent must receive your completed and signed subscription rights certificate and payment for both your basic subscription rights
and any over-subscription privilege you elect to exercise before the rights offering expires on March 27, 2018, at 5:00
PM Eastern Time. If you hold your shares in the name of a broker, dealer, custodian bank, or other nominee, your nominee may establish
a deadline before the expiration of the rights offering by which you must provide it with your instructions to exercise your subscription
rights, along with the required subscription payment.
May
I transfer my subscription rights?
No.
The subscription rights may be exercised only by the stockholders to whom they are distributed, and they may not be sold, transferred,
assigned or given away to anyone else, other than by operation of law. As a result, a subscription rights certificate may be completed
only by the stockholder who receives the statement. The subscription rights will not be listed for trading on any stock exchange
or market.
Will
our directors and executive officers participate in the rights offering?
To
the extent they hold common stock as of the record date, our directors and executive officers will be entitled to participate
in the rights offering on the same terms and conditions applicable to other rights holders. None of our directors or executive
officers has entered into any binding commitment or agreement to exercise subscription rights received in the rights offering.
Has
the board of directors made a recommendation to stockholders regarding the rights offering?
No.
Our board of directors is not making a recommendation regarding your exercise of the subscription rights. Stockholders who exercise
subscription rights will incur investment risk on new money invested. We cannot predict the price at which our shares of common
stock will trade after the rights offering. On February 2, 2018 the closing price of our common stock was $0.01975
per share. The market price for our common stock may be above the subscription price or may be below the subscription price. If
you exercise your subscription rights, you may not be able to sell the underlying shares of our common stock or warrants in the
future at the same price or a higher price. You should make your decision based on your assessment of our business and financial
condition, our prospects for the future, the terms of the rights offering and the information contained in this prospectus. See
“Risk Factors” for discussion of some of the risks involved in investing in our securities.
How
do I exercise my subscription Rights?
If
you are a stockholder of record (meaning you hold your shares of our common stock in your name and not through a broker, dealer,
bank, or other nominee) and you wish to participate in the rights offering, you must deliver a properly completed and signed subscription
rights certificate, together with payment of the subscription price for both your basic subscription rights and any over-subscription
privilege you elect to exercise, to the subscription agent before 5:00 PM Eastern Time, on March 27, 2018. If you are exercising
your subscription rights through your broker, dealer, bank, or other nominee, you should promptly contact your broker, dealer,
bank, or other nominee and submit your subscription documents and payment for the units subscribed for in accordance with the
instructions and within the time period provided by your broker, dealer, bank or other nominee.
What
if my shares are held in “street name”?
If
you hold your shares of our common stock in the name of a broker, dealer, bank, or other nominee, then your broker, dealer, bank,
or other nominee is the record holder of the shares you own. The record holder must exercise the subscription rights on your behalf.
Therefore, you will need to have your record holder act for you.
If
you wish to participate in this rights offering and purchase units, please promptly contact the record holder of your shares.
We will ask the record holder of your shares, who may be your broker, dealer, bank, or other nominee, to notify you of this rights
offering.
What
form of payment is required?
You
must timely pay the full subscription price pursuant to the exercise of subscription rights by delivering to the subscription
agent a:
|
●
|
cashier’s
check drawn on a U.S. bank; or
|
|
●
|
wire
transfer.
|
When
will I receive my new shares of common stock and warrants?
The
subscription agent will arrange for the issuance of the common stock and warrants as soon as practicable after the expiration
of the rights offering, payment for the units subscribed for has cleared, and all prorating calculations and reductions contemplated
by the terms of the rights offering have been effected. All shares and warrants that you purchase in the rights offering will
be issued in book-entry, or uncertificated, form meaning that you will receive a direct registration (DRS) account statement from
our transfer agent reflecting ownership of these securities if you are a holder of record of shares. If you hold your shares in
the name of a broker, dealer, bank, or other nominee, DTC will credit your account with your nominee with the securities you purchase
in the rights offering.
After
I send in my payment and subscription rights certificate to the Subscription Agent, may I cancel my exercise of Subscription Rights?
No.
Exercises of subscription rights are irrevocable unless the rights offering is terminated, even if you later learn information
that you consider to be unfavorable to the exercise of your subscription rights. You should not exercise your subscription rights
unless you are certain that you wish to participate in the rights offering.
How
much will the Company receive from the rights offering?
Assuming
the rights offering is fully subscribed, we estimate that the net proceeds from the rights offering will be approximately $4,250,000,
after deducting fees and expenses payable to the dealer-manager, and after deducting other expenses payable by us and excluding
any proceeds received upon exercise of any warrants issued in the rights offering.
What
are the limitations on the exercise of the basic subscription privilege and over-subscription privilege?
In
the event that the exercise by a stockholder of the basic subscription privilege or the over-subscription privilege could, as
determined by the Company in its sole discretion, potentially result in a limitation on the Company’s ability to use net
operating losses, tax credits and other tax attributes, which we refer to as the “Tax Attributes,” under the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which we refer to as the “Code”, and rules promulgated by the Internal Revenue Service,
the Company may, but is under no obligation to, reduce the exercise by such stockholder of the basic subscription privilege or
the over-subscription privilege to such number of shares of common stock as the Company in its sole discretion shall determine
to be advisable in order to preserve the Company’s ability to use the Tax Attributes.
Are
there risks in exercising my subscription rights?
Yes.
The exercise of your subscription rights involves risks. Exercising your subscription rights involves the purchase of additional
shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase common stock and you should consider this investment as carefully as you
would consider any other investment. We cannot assure you that the market price of our common stock will exceed the subscription
price, nor can we assure you that the market price of our common stock will not further decline after the rights offering. We
also cannot assure you that you will be able to sell shares of our common stock or warrants purchased in the rights offering at
a price equal to or greater than the subscription price. In addition, you should carefully consider the risks described under
the heading “Risk Factors” for discussion of some of the risks involved in investing in our securities.
Can
the board of directors terminate or extend the rights offering?
Yes.
Our board of directors may decide to terminate the rights offering at any time and for any reason before the expiration of the
rights offering. We also have the right to extend the rights offering for period not to exceed 30 days. We do not presently intend
to extend the rights offering. We will notify stockholders if the rights offering is terminated or extended by issuing a press
release.
If
the rights offering is not completed or is terminated, will my subscription payment be refunded to me?
Yes.
The subscription agent will hold all funds it receives in a segregated bank account until completion of the rights offering. If
we will cancel the offering, you will receive a refund of the money you have advanced, without interest. If
you own shares in “street name,” it may take longer for you to receive your subscription payment because the
subscription agent will return payments through the record holder of your shares.
How
do I exercise my subscription rights if I live outside the United States?
The
subscription agent will hold subscription rights certificates for stockholders having addresses outside the United States.
To exercise subscription rights, foreign stockholders must notify the subscription agent and timely follow other procedures
described in the section entitled “The Rights Offering — Foreign Stockholders”.
What
fees or charges apply if I purchase shares of our common stock?
We
are not charging any fee or sales commission to issue subscription rights to you or to issue shares to you if you exercise your
subscription rights. If you exercise your subscription rights through the record holder of your shares, you are responsible for
paying any fees your record holder may charge you.
What
are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of exercising subscription rights?
For
U.S. federal income tax purposes you will not recognize income or loss in connection with the receipt or exercise of subscription
rights in the rights offering. Our U.S. tax counsel, Libertas Law Group, Inc., is of the opinion that the rights offering will
not be part of a disproportionate distribution, but certain aspects of that determination are not certain. This position is not
binding on the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) or the courts, however. You should consult your tax advisor as
to the tax consequences of the rights offering in light of your particular circumstances. For a more detailed discussion, see
“Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” on page 46.
To
whom should I send my forms and payment?
If
your shares are held in the name of a broker, dealer or other nominee, then you should send your subscription documents, rights
certificate, notices of guaranteed delivery and subscription payment to that record holder. If you are the record holder, then
you should send your subscription documents, rights certificate, notices of guaranteed delivery and subscription payment by hand
delivery, first class mail or courier service to:
West
Coast Stock Transfer, Inc.
721
N. Vulcan Ave. Ste. 205
Encinitas,
CA 92024
You
are solely responsible for completing delivery to the subscription agent of your subscription documents, rights certificate and
payment. We urge you to allow sufficient time for delivery of your subscription materials to the subscription agent.
Whom
should I contact if I have other questions?
If
you have any questions about the rights offering, including questions about subscription procedures and requests for additional
copies of this prospectus or other documents,
please contact the information agent, Mackenzie Partners, Inc., at (212) 929-5500, (800) 322-2885 (toll free) or rightsoffer@mackenziepartners.com.
Who
is the dealer-manager?
RHK
Capital will act as dealer-manager for the rights offering. RHK Capital is not underwriting or placing any of the subscription
rights or the units being sold in this offering and does not make any recommendation with respect to such rights or units (including
with respect to the exercise of such subscription rights). As contemplated by the dealer-manager agreement, RHK Capital will not
solicit any holders of the securities (including the rights) or engage in the offer and sale of such securities in any jurisdiction
in which such securities are not qualified or registered for sale in accordance with, or exempt from, the state securities or
blue sky laws or Canadian provincial securities laws of such jurisdiction unless and until (i) the Company has advised RHK Capital
that such securities have been qualified or registered in accordance with, or are exempt from application of, the state securities
or blue sky laws or the Canadian provincial securities laws of such jurisdiction, as applicable, and (ii) RHK Capital possesses
all required licenses and registrations to solicit or offer such securities in that jurisdiction. See “Plan of Distribution”
on page 41 for a discussion of the fees and expenses to be paid to the dealer-manager in connection with this rights
offering.

NOTE
REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This
prospectus contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of the Federal securities laws, which involve substantial risks
and uncertainties. Any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking
statements. Without limiting the foregoing, the words “outlook”, “believes”, “plans”, “intends”,
“expects”, “goals”, “potential”, “continues”, “may”, “should”,
“seeks”, “will”, “would”, “approximately”, “predicts”, “estimates”,
“anticipates” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking
statements contain these words. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss our plans,
strategies, prospects and expectations concerning our business, operating results, financial condition and other similar matters.
We believe that it is important to communicate our future expectations to our investors. There will be events in the future, however,
that we are not able to predict accurately or control. The factors listed under “Risk Factors” in this prospectus
and in any documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus as well as any cautionary language in this prospectus, provide

|
●
|
inability
to raise additional financing for working capital;

|
●
|
our
ability to attract key personnel;

our
ability to operate profitably;

Before
you invest in our securities, you should be aware that the occurrence of the events described in these risk factors and elsewhere
in this prospectus under the heading “Risk Factors” could have a material adverse effect on our business, results
of operations and financial position. Any forward-looking statement made by us in this prospectus speaks only as of the date on
which we make it. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ will emerge from time to time, and it is not
possible for us to predict all of them. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. All forward-looking statements
should be evaluated with the understanding of their inherent uncertainty. You are advised to consult any further disclosures we

RISK
FACTORS
An
investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below, together
with the other information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, before making a decision to invest in our
common stock or to exercise your subscription rights to purchase shares of our common stock. If any of these risks actually occur,
our business, results of operations and financial condition could suffer. In that case, the market price of our common stock could
decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.
RISKS
RELATED TO THE RIGHTS OFFERING
Your
interest in our company may be diluted as a result of this offering.
Common
stockholders who do not fully exercise their respective rights should expect that they would, at the completion of this offering,
own a smaller proportional interest in our Company than would otherwise be the case had they fully exercised their basic subscription
rights.
The
market price of our common stock is volatile and may decline before or after the subscription rights expire.
The
market price of our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to numerous factors, some of which are beyond
our control. These factors include, among other things, actual or anticipated variations in our costs of doing business, operating
results and cash flow, the nature and content of our earnings releases and our competitors’ earnings releases, customers,
competitors or markets, changes in financial estimates by securities analysts, business conditions in our markets and the general
state of the securities markets and the market for similar stocks, changes in capital markets that affect the perceived availability
of capital to companies in our industry, governmental legislation or regulation, as well as general economic and market conditions,
such as continued downturns in our economy and recessions.
We
cannot assure you that the market price of our common stock will not decline after you elect to exercise your subscription rights.
If that occurs, you may have committed to buy shares of our common stock in the rights offering at a price greater than the prevailing
market price, and could have an immediate unrealized loss. Moreover, we cannot assure you that following the exercise of your
subscription rights you will be able to sell your common stock at a price equal to or greater than the subscription price. Until
shares are delivered upon expiration of the rights offering, you will not be able to sell the shares of our common stock that
you purchase in the rights offering. Certificates (physical, electronic or book entry from) representing shares of our common
stock purchased will be delivered as soon as practicable after expiration of the rights offering. We will not pay you interest
on funds delivered to the subscription agent pursuant to the exercise of subscription rights.
Completion
of this offering is not subject to us raising a minimum offering amount and therefore proceeds may be insufficient to meet our
objectives, thereby increasing the risk to investors in this offering.
Completion
of this offering is not subject to us raising a minimum offering amount. As such, proceeds from this rights offering may not be
sufficient to meet the objectives we state in this prospectus or other corporate milestones that we may set.
The
subscription rights are not transferable and there is no market for the subscription rights.
You
may not sell, transfer or assign your subscription rights. Because the subscription rights are non-transferable, there is no market
or other means for you to directly realize any value associated with the subscription rights. You must exercise the subscription
rights and acquire additional shares of our common stock to realize any value that may be embedded in the subscription rights.
None
of our officers, directors or significant stockholders are obligated to
exercise
their
subscription
right and, as
a result, the offering may be undersubscribed.
As
a group, our officers and directors own approximately 19.25% of our outstanding common stock. None of our officers or directors
are obligated to participate in this offering. We cannot guarantee you that any of our officers or directors or significant stockholders
will exercise their basic or over-subscription rights to purchase any shares issued in connection with this offering. As a result,
the offering may be undersubscribed and proceeds may not be sufficient to meet the objectives we state in this prospectus or other
corporate milestones that we may set.
This
offering may cause the price of our common stock to decrease.
Depending
upon the trading price of our common stock at the time of our announcement of the rights offering and its terms, including the
subscription price, together with the number of shares of common stock we propose to issue and ultimately will issue if this offering
is completed, may result in an immediate decrease in the market value of our common stock. This decrease may continue after the
completion of this offering. If that occurs, you may have committed to buy shares of common stock in the rights offering at a
price greater than the prevailing market price. Further, if a substantial number of rights are exercised and the holders of the
shares received upon exercise of those rights choose to sell some or all of those shares, the resulting sales could depress the
market price of our common stock. Your purchase of shares of our common stock in the rights offering may be at a price greater
than the prevailing trading price. There is no assurance that following the exercise of your rights you will be able to sell your
common stock at a price equal to or greater than the subscription price.
You
could be committed to buying shares of common stock above the prevailing market price.
Once
you exercise your basic and any over-subscription rights, you may not revoke such exercise even if you later learn information
that you consider to be unfavorable to the exercise of your rights. We cannot assure you that the market price of our shares of
common stock will not decline prior to the expiration of this offering or that a subscribing rights holder will be able to sell
shares of common stock purchased in this offering at a price equal to or greater than the subscription price.
If
we terminate this offering for any reason, we will have no obligation other than to return subscription monies promptly.
We
may decide, in our discretion and for any reason, to cancel or terminate the rights offering at any time prior to the expiration
date. If this offering is terminated, we will have no obligation with respect to rights that have been exercised except to return
promptly, without interest or deduction, the subscription monies deposited with the subscription agent. If we terminate this offering
and you have not exercised any rights, such rights will expire worthless.
Our
common stock price may be volatile as a result of this rights offering.
The
trading price of our common stock may fluctuate substantially. The price of the common stock that will prevail in the market after
this offering may be higher or lower than the subscription price depending on many factors, some of which are beyond our control
and may not be directly related to our operating performance. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
|
●
|
price
and volume fluctuations in the overall stock market from time to time;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
significant
volatility in the market price and trading volume of our securities;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
actual
or anticipated changes or fluctuations in our operating results;

We
will have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this offering and may not use the proceeds effectively.
Although
we plan to use the proceeds of this offering primarily for strategic acquisitions and working capital, we will not be restricted
to such use and will have broad discretion in determining how the proceeds of this offering will be used. Our discretion is not
substantially limited by the uses set forth in this prospectus in the section entitled “Use of Proceeds”. While our
board of directors believes the flexibility in application of the net proceeds is prudent, the broad discretion it affords entails
increased risks to the investors in this offering. Investors in this offering have no current basis to evaluate the possible merits
or risks of any application of the net proceeds of this offering. Our stockholders may not agree with the manner in which we choose
to allocate and spend the net proceeds.
If
you do not act on a timely basis and follow subscription instructions, your exercise of rights may be rejected.
Holders
of shares of common stock who desire to purchase shares of our common stock in this offering must act on a timely basis to ensure
that all required forms and payments are actually received by the subscription agent prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the
expiration date, unless extended. If you are a beneficial owner of shares of common stock and you wish to exercise your rights,
you must act promptly to ensure that your broker, dealer, custodian bank, trustee or other nominee acts for you and that all required
forms and payments are actually received by your broker, dealer, custodian bank, trustee or other nominee in sufficient time to
deliver such forms and payments to the subscription agent to exercise the rights granted in this offering that you beneficially
own prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time on the expiration date, as may be extended. We will not be responsible if your broker, dealer,
custodian bank, trustee or other nominee fails to ensure that all required forms and payments are actually received by the subscription
agent prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the expiration date, as may be extended.
If
you fail to complete and sign the required subscription forms, send an incorrect payment amount, or otherwise fail to follow the
subscription procedures that apply to your exercise in this offering, the subscription agent may, depending on the circumstances,
reject your subscription or accept it only to the extent of the payment received. Neither we nor the subscription agent undertakes
to contact you concerning an incomplete or incorrect subscription form or payment, nor are we under any obligation to correct
such forms or payment. We have the sole discretion to determine whether a subscription exercise properly follows the subscription
procedures.
If
you make payment of the subscription price by uncertified check, your check may not clear in sufficient time to enable you to
purchase shares in this rights offering.
Any
uncertified check used to pay for shares to be issued in this rights offering must clear prior to the expiration date of this
rights offering, and the clearing process may require five or more business days. If you choose to exercise your subscription
rights, in whole or in part, and to pay for shares by uncertified check and your check has not cleared prior to the expiration
date of this rights offering, you will not have satisfied the conditions to exercise your subscription rights and will not receive
the shares you wish to purchase.
The
tax treatment of the rights offering is somewhat uncertain and it may be treated as a taxable event to our stockholders.
If
the rights offering is deemed to be part of a “disproportionate distribution” under section 305 of the Internal Revenue
Code, our stockholders may recognize taxable income for U.S. federal income tax purposes in connection with the receipt of subscription
rights in the rights offering depending on our current and accumulated earnings and profits and our stockholders’ tax basis
in our common stock. A “disproportionate distribution” is a distribution or a series of distributions, including deemed
distributions, that has the effect of the receipt of cash or other property by some stockholders or holders of debt instruments
convertible into stock and an increase in the proportionate interest of other stockholders in a company’s assets or earnings
and profits. It is unclear whether the fact that we have outstanding options and certain other equity-based awards could cause
the receipt of subscription rights to be part of a disproportionate distribution. Please see “Material U.S. Federal Income
Tax Consequences” for further information on the treatment of the rights offering.
We
may amend or modify the terms of the rights offering at any time prior to the expiration of the rights offering in our sole discretion.
Our
board of directors reserves the right to amend or modify the terms of the rights offering in its sole discretion. Although we
do not presently intend to do so, we may choose to amend or modify the terms of the rights offering for any reason, including,
without limitation, in order to increase participation in the rights offering. Such amendments or modifications may include a
change in the subscription price, although no such change is presently contemplated. If we should make any fundamental changes
to the terms of the rights offering set forth in this prospectus, we will file a post-effective amendment to the registration
statement in which this prospectus is included, offer potential purchasers who have subscribed for rights the opportunity to cancel
such subscriptions and issue a refund of any subscription payments advanced by such stockholder and recirculate an updated prospectus
after the post-effective amendment is declared effective by the SEC. In addition, upon such event, we may extend the expiration
date of the rights offering to allow holders of rights ample time to make new investment decisions and for us to recirculate updated
documentation. Promptly following any such occurrence, we will issue a press release announcing any changes with respect to the
rights offering and the new expiration date. The terms of the rights offering cannot be modified or amended after the expiration
date of the rights offering.
RISKS
ASSOCIATED WITH OUR BUSINESS AND MARKETPLACE
We
have a limited operating history in the restaurant industry on which to evaluate our potential and determine if we will be able
to execute our business plan, and depends on our two restaurant locations to generate all of our restaurant revenues.
Although
we plan on identifying and opening new restaurant locations, we will initially rely on the Woodland Hills, California and Glendale,
California locations for all of our revenue. Investments in our securities should be considered in light of the risks and difficulties
we will encounter as we attempt to penetrate the restaurant industry.
In
addition, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to achieve our expansion goals or that new restaurants will generate sufficient
revenues or be operated profitably. Our ability to expand will depend on a number of factors many of which are beyond our control.
These risks may include, but are not limited to:
|
●
|
Locating
suitable restaurant sites in new and existing markets;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Obtaining
acceptable financing for construction of new restaurants or negotiating acceptable lease terms;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Recruiting,
training and retaining qualified corporate and restaurant personnel and management;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Cost
effective and timely planning, design and build-out of restaurants;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Obtaining
and maintaining required local, state and federal government approvals;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Creating
guest awareness of our restaurants in new markets;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Competition
in our markets; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
General
economic conditions.
|
If
we are unable to expand our restaurant concept, our potential for growth and our results of operations could be harmed significantly.
A
critical factor in our future viability will be our ability to expand our Giggles N’ Hugs restaurant concept. Our growth
plans contemplate opening a number of additional restaurants in future months and years. If we do not open and operate new restaurants,
our growth and results of operations could be harmed significantly. Our ability to open new restaurants in a timely manner and
operate them profitably depends upon a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the following:
|
●
|
The
success of this rights offering;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
The
availability and cost of suitable restaurant locations for development, our ability to compete effectively for those locations,
and enter into purchase or long-term lease agreements for such locations on acceptable terms;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
The
timing of delivery of leased premises from our landlords so we can commence our build-out constructions activities;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Construction
and development costs;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Obtaining
and maintaining required local, state and federal governmental approvals and permits related to the construction of restaurant
sites and the sale of prepared food products;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Labor
shortages or disputes experienced by our landlords or outside contractors; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Unforeseen
engineering or environmental problems with the leased premises.
|
Our
auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Our
consolidated financial statements for the period ended October 1, 2017 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which
contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As
reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2017, the
Company incurred a net loss of 1,314,909, used cash in operations of $213,887, and had a stockholders’ deficit of
$1,626,577 as of that date. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise
additional funds and implement its business plan. In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting
firm in its report on the January 1, 2017 financial statements has raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the
Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
The
Company had cash on hand in the amount of $104,135 as of October 1, 2017. Management estimates that the current funds on hand
will be sufficient to continue operations through January 2018. Management is currently seeking additional funds, primarily through
the issuance of debt and equity securities for cash to operate our business. No assurance can be given that any future financing
will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able
to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial
dilution for our stock holders, in case or equity financing.
Our
expansion into new markets may present increased risks due to our unfamiliarity with the geographic area.
As
a part of our expansion strategy, we expect we will be opening restaurants in markets in which we have no prior operating experience.
These new markets may have different competitive conditions, consumer tastes and discretionary spending patterns. In addition,
any new restaurants may take several months to reach budgeted operating levels due to problems associated with new restaurants,
including lack of market awareness, inability to hire sufficient staff and other factors. Although we will attempt to mitigate
these factors by paying careful attention to training and staffing needs, there can be no assurance that we will be able to operate
new restaurants on a profitable basis.
We
may be unable to compete effectively in both our current Woodland Hills, California, and Glendale, California locations and at
those sites where we may establish and operate additional restaurants. Our inability to compete could adversely affect your investment.
The
restaurant industry is intensely competitive and fragmented. We believe that we compete primarily with casual and quick-casual
establishments with play areas. We also compete with play areas without restaurants such as Under the Sea Indoor Playgrounds.
Many of our direct and indirect competitors in our Woodland Hills, California and Glendale, California locations, where our restaurants
are located, are well-established national, regional or local chains with a greater market presence than us. Further, many of
these competitors have substantially greater financial, marketing and other resources than us, have been in business longer, have
greater name recognition and are better established in the markets where our existing restaurants are located and in those markets
where our future restaurants are planned to be located.
We
will need additional capital in the future to finance our planned growth, which we may not be able to raise or it may only be
available on terms unfavorable to us or our stockholders. Ultimately, this may result in our inability to fund our working capital
requirements and harm our operational results.
We
have and expect to continue to have substantial capital expenditure and working capital needs. We will need to raise additional
funds to fund our anticipated development needs and implement our growth strategy, or to respond to competitive pressures and/or
perceived opportunities, such as investment, acquisition, marketing and development activities.
We
will require additional financing, in addition to anticipated cash generated from our operations, to fund our planned growth.
Additional financing might not be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. If adequate funds were not available or were
not available on acceptable terms, our ability to fund our operations, take advantage of unanticipated opportunities, develop
or enhance our business or otherwise respond to competitive pressures would be significantly limited. In such a capital restricted
situation, we may curtail our marketing, development, and operational activities or be forced to sell some of our assets on an
untimely or unfavorable basis.
We
have debt financing arrangements, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial health and our ability to obtain
financing in the future, and may impair our ability to react quickly to changes in our business.
Our
exposure to debt financing could limit our ability to satisfy our obligations, limit our ability to operate our business and impair
our competitive position. For example, it could:
|
●
|
increase
our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions, including interest rate fluctuations, because a portion of
our borrowings are at variable rates of interest;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
require
us to dedicate future cash flows to the repayment of debt, reducing the availability of cash to fund working capital, capital
expenditures or other general corporate purposes;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
limit
our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and industry; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
limit
our ability to obtain additional debt or equity financing due to applicable financial and restrictive covenants contained
in our debt agreements.
|
We
may also incur additional indebtedness in the future, which could materially increase the impact of these risks on our financial
condition and results of operations.
We
may not be able to refinance our current debt obligations which are currently due and in default. Failure to successfully recapitalize
the business could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer serves as our sole director and we are not required to implement and have
not otherwise adopted any NYSE/Nasdaq-level corporate governance standards.
Our
sole director is also our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. He will be able to determine his own salary and
perquisites. The absence of standards of corporate governance increase the risk of related party transactions and conflicts of
interest and reluctance by investors to provide capital to the company in the future.
RISKS
RELATED TO THE RESTAURANT INDUSTRY
Fluctuations
in the cost, availability and quality of our raw ingredients and natural resources such as energy affect our results of operations.
The
cost, availability and quality of the ingredients that we use to prepare our food are subject to a range of factors, many of which
are beyond our control. Fluctuations in economic and political conditions, weather and demand could adversely affect the cost
of our ingredients. We have limited control over these changes in the price and quality of commodities, since we typically do
not enter into long-term pricing agreements for our ingredients. We may not be able to pass through any future cost increase by
increasing menu prices. These factors could adversely affect our business, reputation and financial results.
Litigation
and unfavorable publicity could negatively affect our results of operations as well as our future business.
We
are subject to potential for litigation and other customer complaints concerning our food safety, service and/or other operational
factors. Guests may file formal litigation complaints that we are required to defend, whether or not we believe them to be true.
Substantial, complex or extended litigation could have an adverse effect on our results of operations if we incur substantial
defense costs and our management is distracted. Employees may also, from time to time, bring lawsuits against us regarding injury,
discrimination, wage and hour, and other employment issues. Additionally, we are subject to the risk of litigation by our stockholders
as a result of factors including, but not limited to, performance of our stock price.
In
recent years there has been an increase in the use of social media platforms and similar devices that allow individuals’
access to a broad audience of consumers and other interested persons. The availability of information on social media platforms
is virtually immediate in its impact. A variety of risks are associated with the use of social media, including the improper disclosure
of proprietary information, negative comments about our Company, exposure of personally identifiable information, fraud or outdated
information. The inappropriate use of social media platforms by our guests, employees or other individuals could increase our
costs, lead to litigation, or result in negative publicity that could damage our reputation. If we are unable to quickly and effectively
respond, we may suffer declines in guest traffic, which could materially affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Food
safety and foodborne illness concerns could have an adverse effect on our business.
We
cannot guarantee that our internal controls and training will be fully effective in preventing all food safety issues at our restaurants,
including any occurrences of foodborne illnesses such as salmonella, E. coli and hepatitis A. In addition, there is no guarantee
that our franchise restaurants will maintain the high levels of internal controls and training we require at our company-operated
restaurants.
Furthermore,
we and our franchisees rely on third-party vendors, making it difficult to monitor food safety compliance and increasing the risk
that foodborne illness would affect multiple locations rather than a single restaurant. Some foodborne illness incidents could
be caused by third-party vendors and transporters outside of our control. New illnesses resistant to our current precautions may
develop in the future, or diseases with long incubation periods could arise, that could give rise to claims or allegations on
a retroactive basis. One or more instances of foodborne illness in any of our restaurants or markets or related to food products
we sell could negatively affect our restaurant revenue nationwide if highly publicized on national media outlets or through social
media.
This
risk exists even if it were later determined that the illness was wrongly attributed to us or one of our restaurants. A number
of other restaurant chains have experienced incidents related to foodborne illnesses that have had a material adverse effect on
their operations. The occurrence of a similar incident at one or more of our restaurants, or negative publicity or public speculation
about an incident, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our
business could be adversely affected by declines in discretionary spending and may be affected by changes in consumer preferences.
Our
success depends, in part, upon the popularity of our food products. Shifts in consumer preferences away from our restaurants or
cuisine could harm our business. Also, our success depends to a significant extent on discretionary consumer spending, which is
influenced by general economic conditions and the availability of discretionary income. Accordingly, we may experience declines
in sales during economic downturns or during periods of uncertainty. A continuing decline in the amount of discretionary spending
could have a material adverse effect on our sales, results of operations, and business and financial condition.
Increases
in costs, including food, labor and energy prices, will adversely affect our results of operations.
Our
profitability is dependent on our ability to anticipate and react to changes in our operating costs, including food, labor, occupancy
(including utilities and energy), insurance and supplies costs. Various factors beyond our control, including climatic changes
and government regulations, may affect food costs. Specifically, our dependence on frequent, timely deliveries of fresh meat and
produce subject us to the risks of possible shortages or interruptions in supply caused by adverse weather or other conditions
which could adversely affect the availability and cost of any such items. In the past, we have been able to recover some of our
higher operating costs through increased menu prices. There have been, and there may be in the future, delays in implementing
such menu price increases, and competitive pressures may limit our ability to recover such cost increases in their entirety.
Our
ability to maintain consistent price and quality throughout our restaurants depends in part upon our ability to acquire specified
food products and supplies in sufficient quantities from third-party vendors, suppliers and distributors at a reasonable cost.
We do not control the businesses of our vendors, suppliers and distributors, and our efforts to specify and monitor the standards
under which they perform may not be successful. If any of our vendors or other suppliers are unable to fulfill their obligations
to our standards, or if we are unable to find replacement providers in the event of a supply or service disruption, we could encounter
supply shortages and incur higher costs to secure adequate supplies, which would have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations.
Furthermore,
if our current vendors or other suppliers are unable to support our expansion into new markets, or if we are unable to find vendors
to meet our supply specifications or service needs as we expand, we could likewise encounter supply shortages and incur higher
costs to secure adequate supplies, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results
of operations.
Changes
in employment laws and minimum wage standards may adversely affect our business.
Labor
is a primary component in the cost of operating our restaurants. If we face labor shortages or increased labor costs because of
increased competition for employees, higher employee turnover rates, increases in the federal, state or local minimum wage or
other employee benefits costs (including costs associated with health insurance coverage), our operating expenses could increase
and our growth could be negatively impacted.
In
addition, our success depends in part upon our ability to attract, motivate and retain a sufficient number of well-qualified restaurant
operators and management personnel, as well as a sufficient number of other qualified employees, including customer service and
kitchen staff, to keep pace with our expansion schedule. In addition, restaurants have traditionally experienced relatively high
employee turnover rates. Although we have not yet experienced significant problems in recruiting or retaining employees, our ability
to recruit and retain such individuals may delay the planned openings of new restaurants or result in higher employee turnover
in existing restaurants, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Various
federal and state labor laws govern the relationship with our employees and impact operating costs. These laws include employee
classification as exempt or non-exempt for overtime and other purposes, minimum wage requirements, unemployment tax rates, workers’
compensation rates, immigration status and other wage and benefit requirements. Significant additional government-imposed increases
in the following areas could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations:
|
●
|
minimum
wages;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
mandatory
health benefits;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
vacation
accruals;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
paid
leaves of absence, including paid sick leave; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
tax
reporting.
|
We
could also become subject to fines, penalties and other costs related to claims that we did not fully comply with all recordkeeping
obligations of federal and state immigration compliance laws. These factors could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations.
We
are subject to all of the risks associated with leasing space subject to long-term non-cancelable leases.
We
lease substantially all of the real property and we expect the new restaurants we open in the future will also be leased. We are
obligated under non-cancelable leases for our restaurants and our corporate headquarters. Our restaurant leases generally require
us to pay a proportionate share of real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance charges and other operating costs. Some
restaurant leases provide for contingent rental payments based on sales thresholds, although we generally do not expect to pay
significant contingent rent on these properties based on the thresholds in those leases. Additional sites that we lease are likely
to be subject to similar long-term non-cancelable leases.
If
an existing or future restaurant is not profitable, and we decide to close it, we may nonetheless be committed to perform our
obligations under the applicable lease including, among other things, paying the base rent for the balance of the lease term.
In addition, as each of our leases expires, we may fail to negotiate renewals, either on commercially acceptable terms or at all,
which could cause us to pay increased occupancy costs or to close restaurants in desirable locations. These potential increased
occupancy costs and closed restaurants could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
Labor
shortages or increases in labor costs could restrict our ability to grow or adversely affect our results of operations.
We
expect that our success will depend in part on our ability to attract, motivate, and retain a sufficient number of qualified restaurant
employees, necessary to build and grow our operations. If we are unable to identify, and attract a sufficient number of qualified
employees, we will be unable to open and operate the locations called for by our development plans. Competition for qualified
restaurant employees could require us to pay higher wages and benefits, which could result in higher labor costs.
We
may not be able to protect our trademarks and other proprietary rights.
We
believe that our trademarks and other proprietary rights, including our restaurant and mascot designs, are important to our brand
and our competitive position. Accordingly, we devote substantial resources to the development and protection of our trademarks
and proprietary rights. However, the actions taken by us may be inadequate to prevent infringement or other unauthorized use of
our trademarks and other proprietary rights by others, which may thereby dilute our trademarks in the marketplace and/or diminish
the value of such proprietary rights. We may also be unable to prevent others from claiming infringement or other unauthorized
use of our trademarks and other proprietary rights by us. In addition, others may assert rights in our trademarks and other proprietary
rights. Our rights to our trademarks may in some cases be subject to the common law rights of any other person who began using
the trademark (or a confusingly similar mark) prior to both the date of our registration and our first use of such trademarks
in the relevant territory. We cannot assure you that third parties will not assert claims against our trademarks and other proprietary
rights or that we will be able to successfully resolve each claim, which could result in our inability to use certain trademarks
or other proprietary rights in certain jurisdictions or in connection with certain goods or services. Future actions by third
parties may diminish the strength of our trademarks or other proprietary rights, injure the goodwill associated with our business
and decrease our competitive strength and performance. We could also incur substantial costs to defend or pursue legal actions
relating to the use of our trademarks and other proprietary rights, which could have a material adverse effect on our business,
results of operations or financial condition.
Data
privacy breaches may result in additional costs.
The
Company relies on information systems across its operations, including for marketing programs, administration, point-of-sale and
other payment processing systems, and various other processes and transactions. Disruptions, failures or other performance issues
with these technology systems could negatively affect the Company’s our relationship with its our customers, employees,
vendors and others. A material network breach in the security of these systems as a result of a cyber attack, or any other
failure to maintain a secure network could result in substantial harm or inconvenience to the Company, including the improper
use of personal information or other “identity theft.” Each of these situations or data privacy breaches may result
in additional costs.
RISKS
RELATING TO OUR COMMON STOCK
Because
our common stock is deemed a low-priced “Penny” stock, an investment in our common stock should be considered high
risk and subject to marketability restrictions.
Since
our common stock is currently under $5 per share, it is considered a penny stock, as defined in Rule 3a51-1 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), it will be more difficult for investors to liquidate their investment
even if and when a market develops for the common stock. Until the trading price of the common stock rises above $5.00 per share,
if ever, trading in the common stock is subject to the penny stock rules of the Exchange Act specified in rules 15g-1 through
15g-10. Those rules require broker-dealers, before effecting transactions in any penny stock, to:
|
●
|
Deliver
to the customer, and obtain a written receipt for, a disclosure document;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Disclose
certain price information about the stock;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Disclose
the amount of compensation received by the broker-dealer or any associated person of the broker-dealer;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Send
monthly statements to customers with market and price information about the penny stock; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
In
some circumstances, approve the purchaser’s account under certain standards and deliver written statements to the customer
with information specified in the rules.
|
Consequently,
the penny stock rules may restrict the ability or willingness of broker-dealers to sell the common stock and may affect the ability
of holders to sell their common stock in the secondary market and the price at which such holders can sell any such securities.
These additional procedures could also limit our ability to raise additional capital in the future.
Our
common stock may experience extreme price and volume fluctuations, which could lead to costly litigation for us and make an investment
in us less appealing.
|
●
|
The
market price of our common stock may fluctuate substantially due to a variety of factors, including:
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
our
business strategy and plans;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
changing
factors related to doing business in various jurisdictions within the United States;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
new
regulatory pronouncements and changes in regulatory guidelines and timing of regulatory approvals;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
general
and industry-specific economic conditions;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
additions
to or departures of our key personnel;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
variations
in our quarterly financial and operating results;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
changes
in market valuations of other companies that operate in our business segments or in our industry;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
lack
of adequate trading liquidity;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
announcements
about our business partners;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
changes
in accounting principles; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
general
market conditions.
|
The
market prices of the securities of early-stage companies, particularly companies like ours without consistent product revenues
and earnings, have been highly volatile and are likely to remain highly volatile in the future. This volatility has often been
unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. In the past, companies that experience volatility in the market
price of their securities have often faced securities class action litigation. Whether or not meritorious, litigation brought
against us could result in substantial costs, divert our management’s attention and resources and harm our financial condition
and results of operations.
FINRA
sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.
In
addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) has adopted
rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing
that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional
customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax
status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high
probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The FINRA requirements make
it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy
and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.
If
we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements or maintain a minimum bid price of $0.01, we could be removed from
the OTCQB, which would limit the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their
securities in the secondary market.
Companies
trading on the OTCQB, such as us, generally must be reporting issuers under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, and must be current
in their reports under Section 13, in order to maintain price quotation privileges on the OTCQB. More specifically, FINRA has
enacted Rule 6530, which determines eligibility of issuers quoted on the OTCQB by requiring an issuer to be current in its filings
with the SEC. Pursuant to Rule 6530(e), if we file our reports late with the SEC three times in a two-year period or our securities
are removed from the OTCQB for failure to timely file twice in a two-year period, we will be ineligible for quotation on the OTCQB.
As a result, the market liquidity for our securities could be severely adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers
to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market. As of the date of this
filing, we have two late filings reported by FINRA.
We
may issue additional shares of our common stock, which could depress the market price of our common stock and dilute your ownership.
Market
sales of large amounts of our common stock, or the potential for those sales even if they do not actually occur, may have the
effect of depressing the market price of our common stock. In addition, if our future financing needs require us to issue additional
shares of common stock or securities convertible into common stock, the amount of common stock available for resale could be increased
which could stimulate trading activity and cause the market price of our common stock to drop, even if our business is doing well.
Furthermore, the issuance of any additional shares of our common stock, or securities convertible into our common stock could
be substantially dilutive to holders of our common stock.
Director
and officer liability is limited.
As
permitted by Nevada law, our bylaws limit the liability of our directors for monetary damages for breach of a director’s
fiduciary duty except for liability in certain instances. As a result of our bylaw provisions and Nevada law, stockholders may
have limited rights to recover against directors for breach of fiduciary duty.
Failure
to establish and maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have a material
adverse effect on our business and stock price.
As
a publicly traded company, we are required to comply with the SEC’s rules implementing Sections 302 and 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act, which requires management to certify financial and other information in our quarterly and annual reports and provide an annual
management report on the effectiveness of controls over financial reporting. We have identified internal control weaknesses and
may need to undertake various actions, such as implementing new internal controls, new systems and procedures and hiring additional
accounting or internal audit staff, which could increase our operating expenses. In addition, we may identify additional deficiencies
in our internal control over financial reporting as part of that process.
In
addition, if we are unable to resolve internal control deficiencies in a timely manner, investors could lose confidence in the
accuracy and completeness of our financial reports and the market price of our common stock could be negatively affected. We only
have two individuals performing the functions of all officers and directors. These individuals developed our internal control
procedures and are responsible for monitoring and ensuring compliance with those procedures.
Because
we have never paid dividends on our common stock and have no plans to do so, the only return on an investment in our common stock
will come from any increase in the value of the common stock.
Since
beginning our business, we have not paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable
future. Rather, we currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance operations. Therefore, any return on an investment
in our common stock would come only from an increase in the value of our common stock.
THE
RIGHTS OFFERING
The
Subscription Rights
We
are distributing to the record holders, at no charge, non-transferable subscription rights to purchase units at a subscription
price per unit to be determined. The subscription price will be equal to $[●]. Each subscription right will entitle
you to purchase one share of our common stock and 0.70 warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one whole share
of common stock at an exercise price of per share equal to $[●] from the date of issuance through its expiration
5 years from the date of issuance. Each record holder will receive two subscription rights for each whole share
of our common stock owned by such record holder as of the record date. Each subscription right entitles the record holder to a
basic subscription right and an over-subscription privilege.
Basic
Subscription Rights
Your
basic subscription right will entitle you to purchase one unit, at the subscription price, per share of common stock held by you
on the record date of February 22, 2018. Each unit consists of one share of common stock and 0.70 of a warrant. Each whole
warrant will be exercisable for one share of our common stock. For example, if you owned 100 shares of common stock as of the
record date, you will receive 100 subscription rights and will have the right to purchase 100 units consisting of 100 shares of
common stock and warrants to purchase 70 additional share of our common stock. You may exercise all or a portion of your basic
subscription rights or you may choose not to exercise any basic subscription rights at all. Subject to proration, if applicable,
we will seek to honor your basic subscription request in full. In the event that holders exercise subscription rights in excess
of $5 million of units (not including the over-subscription privilege), the amount subscribed for by each person will be proportionally
reduced, based on the amount subscribed for by each person (not including any Over-Subscription Privilege subscribed for). See
“The Rights Offering — Limitation on the Purchase of Units” for a description of certain limitations on purchase.
Over-Subscription
Privilege
If
you exercise your basic subscription rights in full, you may also choose to exercise your over-subscription privilege. Subject
to proration, if applicable, we will seek to honor the over-subscription privilege requests in full. If over-subscription privilege
requests exceed the number of units available, however, we will allocate the available units pro rata among the record holders
exercising the over-subscription privilege in proportion to the number of shares of our common stock each of those record holders
owned on the record date, relative to the number of shares owned exercising the over-subscription privilege. If this pro rata
allocation results in any record holder receiving a greater number of units than the record holder subscribed for pursuant to
the exercise of the over-subscription privilege, then such record holder will be allocated only that number of units for which
the record holder oversubscribed, and the remaining units will be allocated among all other record holders exercising the over-subscription
privilege on the same pro rata basis described above. The proration process will be repeated until all units
have been allocated.
West
Coast Stock Transfer, Inc., the subscription agent for the rights offering, will determine the over-subscription allocation based
on the formula described above.
To
the extent the aggregate subscription payment of the actual number of unsubscribed units available to you pursuant to the over-subscription
privilege is less than the amount you actually paid in connection with the exercise of the over-subscription privilege, you will
be allocated only the number of unsubscribed units available to you, and any excess subscription payments will be returned to
you, without interest or penalty, as soon as practicable after expiration of the rights offering.
We
can provide no assurances that you will actually be entitled to purchase the number of units issuable upon the exercise
of your over-subscription privilege in full at the expiration of the rights offering. We will not be able to satisfy any requests
for units pursuant to the over-subscription privilege if all of our stockholders exercise their basic subscription rights
in full, and we will only honor an over-subscription privilege to the extent sufficient units are available following
the exercise of basic subscription rights.
Limitation
on the Purchase of Units
You
may only purchase the number of whole units purchasable upon exercise of the number of basic subscription rights distributed to
you in the rights offering, plus the over-subscription privilege, if any. Accordingly, the number of units that you may purchase
in the rights offering is limited by the number of shares of our common stock you held on the record date and by the extent to
which other stockholders exercise their basic subscription rights and over-subscription privileges, which we cannot determine
prior to completion of the rights offering.
Subscription
Price
The
subscription price will be equal to $ [●] . The subscription price does not necessarily bear any relationship to our past
or expected future results of operations, cash flows, current financial condition, or any other established criteria for value.
Determination
of Subscription Price
In
the determining the subscription price, the board of directors negotiated with the backstop purchaser and considered a variety
of factors including those listed below:
|
●
|
our
need to raise capital in the near term to continue our operations;
|
|
●
|
the
current and historical trading prices of our common stock;
|
|
●
|
a
price that would increase the likelihood of participation in the rights offering;
|
|
●
|
the
cost of capital from other sources;
|
|
●
|
the
value of the warrant being issued as a component of the unit;
|
|
●
|
comparable
precedent transactions, including the percentage of shares offered, the terms of the subscription rights being offered, the
subscription price and the discount that the subscription price represents to the immediately prevailing closing prices for
these offerings;
|
|
●
|
an
analysis of stock price trading multiples for companies similar to us that, among other things, did not need to raise capital
in the near-term; and
|
|
●
|
our
most recently forecasted revenue relative to our peer group.
|
The
subscription price does not necessarily bear any relationship to any established criteria for value. No valuation consultant or
investment banker has opined upon the fairness or adequacy of the subscription price. You should not consider the subscription
price as an indication of actual value of the company or our common stock. you should not assume or expect that, after the rights
offering, our shares of common stock will trade at or above the subscription price in any given time period. The market price
of our common stock may decline after the rights offering. We cannot assure you that you will be able to sell the shares of our
common stock purchased during the rights offering at a price equal to or greater than the subscription price. You should obtain
a current price quote for our common stock before exercising your subscription rights and make your own assessment of our business
and financial condition, our prospects for the future, and the terms of this rights offering. Once made, all exercises of subscription
rights are irrevocable.
No
Recombination
The
common stock and warrants comprising the units will separate upon the effectiveness of the exercise of the subscription rights
and will be issued as separate securities, and the units will not trade as a separate security. Holders may not recombine shares
of common stock and warrants to receive a unit.
Non-Transferability
of Subscription Rights
The
subscription rights are non-transferable (other than by operation of law) and, therefore, you may not sell, transfer, assign or
give away your subscription rights to anyone. The subscription rights will not be listed for trading on any stock exchange or
market.
Expiration
Date; Extension
The
subscription period, during which you may exercise your subscription rights, expires at 5:00 PM Eastern Time, on March 27,
2018, which is the expiration of the rights offering. If you do not exercise your subscription rights before that time, your subscription
rights will expire and will no longer be exercisable. We will not be required to issue shares to you if the subscription agent
receives your subscription rights statement or your subscription payment after that time. We have the option to extend the rights
offering in our sole discretion, for a period not to exceed 30 days although we do not presently intend to do so. We may extend
the rights offering by giving oral or written notice to the subscription agent before the rights offering expires. If we elect
to extend the rights offering, we will issue a press release announcing the extension no later than 9:00 AM Eastern Time, on the
next business day after the most recently announced expiration date of the rights offering.
If
you hold your shares of common stock in the name of a broker, dealer, custodian bank or other nominee, the nominee will exercise
the subscription rights on your behalf in accordance with your instructions. Please note that the nominee may establish a deadline
that may be before 5:00 PM Eastern Time, on March 27, 2018, which is the expiration date that we have established for the
rights offering.
Termination
We
may terminate the rights offering at any time and for any reason prior to the completion of the rights offering. If we terminate
the rights offering, we will issue a press release notifying stockholders and the public of the termination.
Return
of Funds upon Completion or Termination
The
subscription agent will hold funds received in payment for shares in a segregated account pending completion of the rights offering.
The subscription agent will hold this money until the rights offering is completed or is terminated. You will not be able to rescind
your subscription. Any excess subscription payments, including refunds resulting from will be returned to you as soon as practicable
after the expiration of the rights offering, without interest or penalty. If the rights offering is terminated for any reason,
all subscription payments received by the subscription agent will be returned as soon as practicable, without interest or penalty.
Shares
of Our Common Stock Outstanding After the Rights Offering
On
February 2, 2018, 145,602,251 shares of our common stock were outstanding. Based on the foregoing, and assuming no other transactions
by us involving our common stock prior to the expiration of the rights offering, if the rights offering is fully subscribed for
the maximum number of units available , approximately 445,602,251 shares of our common stock will be issued and outstanding
and warrants to purchase approximately 210,000,000 additional shares of our common stock will be outstanding (excluding
the currently outstanding warrants). The exact number of shares of common stock, warrants that we will issue in this rights offering
will depend on subscription price and the number of units that are subscribed for in the rights offering.

of our common stock so instructs, you should complete the subscription rights statement and submit it to the subscription
agent with the proper subscription payment by the expiration date. You may exercise the number of subscription rights to
which all beneficial owners in the aggregate otherwise would have been entitled had they been direct holders of our common stock
on the record date, provided that you, as a nominee record holder, make a proper showing to the subscription agent by submitting
the form entitled “nominee holder certification,” which is provided with your rights offering materials. If
you did not receive this form, you should contact our subscription agent to request a copy.

will have no rights as a holder of the shares of our common stock you purchase in the rights offering until shares are issued
in book-entry form or your account at your broker, dealer, bank, or other nominee is credited with the shares of our common stock

of our common stock until such warrants are exercised and the shares of common stock underlying the warrants are issued to the
holder.
Foreign

We
will not mail this prospectus or any subscription rights certificates to stockholders with addresses that are outside the United

certificates for their account. To exercise subscription rights, our foreign stockholders must notify the subscription agent prior
5:00 PM Eastern Time, on December 12, 2017, the third business day prior to the expiration date, of your exercise of Subscription
Rights and provide evidence satisfactory to us, such as a legal opinion from local counsel, that the exercise of such Subscription
Rights does not violate the laws of the jurisdiction in which such stockholder resides and payment by a U.S. bank in U.S. dollars
before the expiration of the offer. If no notice is received by such time or the evidence presented is not satisfactory to us,
the Subscription Rights represented thereby will expire.
No
Revocation or Change

you submit the subscription rights certificate or have instructed your nominee of your subscription request, you are not
allowed to revoke or change the exercise or request a refund of monies paid. All exercises of subscription rights are irrevocable,

unless you are certain that you wish to purchase shares at the subscription price.
U.S.
Federal Income Tax Treatment of Rights Distribution
For
U.S. federal income tax purposes, we do not believe holders of shares of our common stock should recognize income or loss upon
receipt or exercise of a subscription right. See “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” on page 34 .
No
Recommendation to Rights Holders
Our
board of directors is not making a recommendation regarding your exercise of the subscription rights. Stockholders who exercise
subscription rights risk investment loss on money invested. We cannot assure you that the market price of our common stock will
reach or exceed the subscription price after the offering, and even if it does so, that it will not subsequently decline. We also
cannot assure you that you will be able to sell shares of our common stock or warrants purchased in the rights offering at a price
equal to or greater than the subscription price. You should make your investment decision based on your assessment of our business
and financial condition, our prospects for the future and the terms of this rights offering. Please see “Risk Factors”
on page 14 for a discussion of some of the risks involved in investing in our common stock.
Fees
and Expenses
We
will pay all fees charged by the subscription agent and by the dealer-manager. You are responsible for paying any other commissions,
fees, taxes or other expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of your subscription rights.
Listing
The
subscription rights may not be sold, transferred, assigned or given away to anyone, and will not be listed for trading on any
stock exchange or market. The shares of our common stock, including the shares to be issued in the rights offering and the shares
underlying the warrants to be issued in the rights offering, are traded on OTCQB under the symbol “GIGL”. We do not
intend to list the warrants for trading on any stock exchange or seek to have them quoted on any market.
Important
Please
follow the directions regarding delivery of subscription rights certificates and payments described above. Do not send subscription
rights certificates directly to us. You are responsible for choosing the payment and delivery method for your subscription rights
certificate and you bear the risks associated with such delivery. If you choose to deliver your subscription rights certificate
and payment by mail, we recommend that you use registered mail, properly insured, with return receipt requested. We also recommend
that you allow a sufficient number of days to ensure delivery to the subscription agent prior to the expiration time.
Distribution
Arrangements
RHK
Capital is the dealer-manager for the rights offering. The dealer-manager will provide marketing assistance and advice to us in
connection with the rights offering. RHK Capital is not underwriting or placing any of the rights or the units being sold in this
offering and does not make any recommendation with respect to such rights or units (including with respect to the exercise of
such rights).
As contemplated by the dealer-manager agreement, RHK Capital will not solicit any
holders of the securities (including the rights) or engage in the offer and sale of such securities in any jurisdiction in which
such securities are not qualified or registered for sale in accordance with, or exempt from, the state securities or blue sky
laws or Canadian provincial securities laws of such jurisdiction unless and until (i) the Company has advised RHK Capital that
such securities have been qualified or registered in accordance with, or are exempt from application of, the state securities
or blue sky laws or the Canadian provincial securities laws of such jurisdiction, as applicable, and (ii) RHK Capital possesses
all required licenses and registrations to solicit or offer such securities in that jurisdiction. See “Plan of Distribution”
on page 41 for a discussion of the fees and expenses to be paid to the dealer-manager in connection with this rights
offering.
Other
Matters
We
are not making the rights offering in any state or other jurisdiction in which it is unlawful to do so, nor are we distributing
or accepting any offers to purchase any shares of our common stock from subscription rights holders who are residents of those
states or other jurisdictions or who are otherwise prohibited by federal or state laws or regulations from accepting or exercising
the subscription rights. We may delay the commencement of the rights offering in those states or other jurisdictions, or change
the terms of the rights offering, in whole or in part, in order to comply with the securities laws or other legal requirements
of those states or other jurisdictions. Subject to state securities laws and regulations, we also have the discretion to delay
allocation and distribution of any shares you may elect to purchase by exercise of your subscription privileges in order to comply
with state securities laws. We may decline to make modifications to the terms of the rights offering requested by those states
or other jurisdictions, in which case, if you are a resident in those states or jurisdictions or if you are otherwise prohibited
by federal or state laws or regulations from accepting or exercising the subscription rights, you will not be eligible to participate
in the rights offering. However, we are not currently aware of any states or jurisdictions that would preclude participation in
the rights offering.

DILUTION
Purchasers
of our common stock in the rights offering will experience an immediate and substantial dilution of the net tangible book value
of the shares purchased. At October 1, 2017, we had a net tangible book value (deficit) of approximately $(1,626,577) or ($0.011)
per share of our common stock. After giving effect to the sale of 300,000,000 shares of our common stock in the rights offering
at a price per share of $0.017 and after deducting transaction and offering expenses, the pro forma net tangible book value
at October 1, 2017, attributable to common stockholders would have been $2,623,423, or $0.006 per share of our common stock.
This amount represents an immediate dilution to purchasers in the rights offering of $0.011. The following table illustrates
this per-share dilution.

MATERIAL
U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES
The
following discussion is a summary of material U.S. federal income tax consequences relating to the receipt and exercise (or expiration)
of the subscription rights acquired through the rights offering and the ownership and disposition of shares of our common stock
and warrants received upon exercise of the subscription rights or warrants. Unless otherwise noted below, the following discussion
is the opinion of Libertas Law Group, Inc., our U.S. tax counsel, insofar as such discussion relates to matters of U.S. federal
income tax law and legal conclusions with respect to those matters.
This
summary deals only with subscription rights acquired through the rights offering, shares of our common stock and Warrants acquired
upon exercise of subscription rights and shares of our common stock acquired upon exercise of the warrants, in each case, that
are held as capital assets by a beneficial owner. This discussion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation
that may be relevant to such a beneficial owner in light of their personal circumstances, including the alternative minimum tax
and the Medicare contribution tax on investment income. This discussion also does not address tax consequences to holders that
may be subject to special tax rules, including, without limitation, insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, regulated
investment companies, grantor trusts, tax-exempt organizations, employee stock purchase plans, partnerships and other pass-through
entities, persons holding subscription rights, shares of our common stock or Warrants as part of a hedging, integrated, conversion
or constructive sale transaction or a straddle, financial institutions, brokers, dealers in securities or currencies, traders
that elect to mark-to-market their securities, persons that acquired subscription rights, shares of our common stock, or warrants
in connection with employment or other performance of services, U.S. Holders (as defined below) that have a functional currency
other than the U.S. dollar, U.S. expatriates, and certain former citizens or residents of the United States. In addition, the
discussion does not describe any tax consequences arising out of the tax laws of any state, local or foreign jurisdiction, or
any U.S. federal tax considerations other than income taxation (such as estate, generation skipping or gift taxation).
The
discussion below is based upon the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, the United States
Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, rulings and judicial decisions, as of the date hereof, and such authorities may be
repealed, revoked or modified, perhaps retroactively. We have not sought, and will not seek, any rulings from the Internal Revenue
Service, or the IRS, regarding the matters discussed below. There can be no assurance that the IRS or a court (if the matter were
contested) will not take positions concerning the tax consequences of the receipt of subscription rights acquired through the
rights offering by persons holding shares of our common stock, the exercise (or expiration) of the subscription rights, the acquisition,
ownership and disposition of shares of our common stock and the acquisition, ownership and disposition (or expiration) of warrants
acquired upon exercise of the subscription rights that are different from those discussed below.
As
used herein, a “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of shares of our common stock, subscription rights, shares of
our common stock, and warrants acquired upon exercise of subscription rights or shares of our common stock acquired upon exercise
of warrants, as the case may be, that is for U.S. federal income tax purposes: (1) an individual who is a citizen or resident
of the United States; (2) a corporation (or other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created
or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia; (3) an estate the income
of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or (4) a trust (a) the administration of which is
subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and one or more United States persons as described in Section
7701(a)(30) of the Code have authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (b) that has a valid election under
the Treasury Regulations in effect to be treated as a United States person. A “Non-U.S. Holder” is such a beneficial
owner (other than an entity or arrangement that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that is not
a U.S. Holder.
If
any entity or arrangement that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes is the record owner, the U.S.
federal income tax treatment of a partner generally will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership.
Holders that are partnerships (and partners in such partnerships) are urged to consult their own tax advisors.
HOLDERS
OF SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE APPLICATION OF THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAWS
TO THEIR PARTICULAR SITUATIONS AND THE CONSEQUENCES UNDER FEDERAL ESTATE AND GIFT TAX LAWS, FOREIGN, STATE AND LOCAL LAWS AND
TAX TREATIES OF THE RECEIPT, OWNERSHIP AND EXERCISE OF SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS AND THE ACQUISITION, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF SHARES
OF OUR COMMON STOCK, AND WARRANTS ACQUIRED UPON EXERCISE OF SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS AND SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK ACQUIRED UPON EXERCISE
OR WARRANTS.
Tax
Consequences to U.S. Holders
Taxation
of Subscription Rights
Receipt
of Subscription Rights
Although
the authorities governing transactions such as this rights offering are complex and do not speak directly to the consequences
of certain aspects of this rights offering, including the inclusion of the right to purchase Warrants in the subscription rights
(rather than the right to purchase only shares of our common stock), the distribution of subscription rights and the effects of
the over-subscription privilege, we do not believe your receipt of subscription rights pursuant to the rights offering should
be treated as a taxable distribution with respect to your existing shares of common stock for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Pursuant to Section 305(a) of the Code, in general, the receipt by a stockholder of a right to acquire stock or warrants should
not be included in the taxable income of the recipient. The general rule of non-recognition in Section 305(a) is subject to exceptions
in Section 305(b), which include “disproportionate distributions.” A disproportionate distribution is a distribution
or a series of distributions, including deemed distributions, that has the effect of the receipt of cash or other property by
some stockholders and an increase in the proportionate interest of other stockholders in a corporation’s assets or earnings
and profits. During the last 36 months, we have not made any distributions of cash or non-stock property with respect to: (i)
our common stock or (ii) our options or warrants to acquire common stock. Currently we do not intend to make any future distributions
of cash or non-stock property with respect to: (i) our common stock or (ii) our options or warrants to acquire common stock; however,
there is no guarantee that we will not make such distributions in the future.
Our
position regarding the tax-free treatment of the subscription rights distribution is not binding on the IRS or the courts. If
this position is finally determined by the IRS or a court to be incorrect, whether on the basis that the issuance of the subscription
rights is a “disproportionate distribution” or otherwise, the fair market value of the subscription rights would be
taxable to holders of our common stock as a dividend to the extent of the holder’s pro rata share of our current and accumulated
earnings and profits, if any, with any excess being treated as a return of capital to the extent thereof and then as capital gain.
Although no assurance can be given, it is anticipated that we will not have current and accumulated earnings and profits through
the end of 2017.
The
following discussion is based upon the treatment of the subscription rights issuance as a non-taxable distribution with respect
to your existing shares of common stock for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Tax
Basis in the Subscription Rights
If
the fair market value of the subscription rights you receive is less than 15% of the fair market value of your existing shares
of common stock (with respect to which the subscription rights are distributed) on the date you receive the subscription rights,
the subscription rights will be allocated a zero dollar basis for U.S. federal income tax purposes, unless you elect to allocate
your basis in your existing shares of common stock between your existing shares of common stock and the subscription rights in
proportion to the relative fair market values of the existing shares of common stock and the subscription rights, determined on
the date of receipt of the subscription rights. If you choose to allocate basis between your existing common shares and the subscription
rights, you must make this election on a statement included with your timely filed tax return (including extensions) for the taxable
year in which you receive the subscription rights. Such an election is irrevocable.
However,
if the fair market value of the subscription rights you receive is 15% or more of the fair market value of your existing shares
of common stock on the date you receive the subscription rights, then you must allocate your basis in your existing shares of
common stock between those shares and the subscription rights you receive in proportion to their fair market values determined
on the date you receive the subscription rights.
The
fair market value of the subscription rights on the date that the subscription rights are distributed is uncertain,
and we have not obtained, and do not intend to obtain, an appraisal of the fair market value of the subscription rights on that
date. In determining the fair market value of the subscription rights, you should consider all relevant facts and circumstances,
including any difference between the subscription price of the subscription rights and the trading price of our shares of
common stock on the date that the subscription rights are distributed, the exercise price of the warrants, the length of
the period during which the subscription rights may be exercised and the fact that the subscription rights are non-transferable.
Exercise
of Subscription Rights
Generally,
you will not recognize gain or loss upon the effectiveness of the exercise of a subscription right in the rights offering. Your
adjusted tax basis, if any, in the subscription right plus the subscription price should be allocated between the new common stock
and warrant acquired upon exercise of the subscription right. The basis in the stock upon which the subscriptions rights were
issued which is allocated to the subscription rights under the prior section entitled “Tax Basis in the Subscription Rights”
would be further allocated between the new common stock and the warrant acquired upon exercise of the subscription right in proportion
to their relative fair market values on the date the subscription rights were distributed. The subscription price should be allocated
between the new common stock and warrant acquired upon exercise of the subscription right in proportion to their relative fair
market values on the exercise date. These allocations will establish your initial tax basis for U.S. federal income tax purposes
in your new common stock and warrants. The holding period of shares of common stock or a warrant acquired upon exercise of a subscription
right in the rights offering will begin on the date of exercise.
If
you exercise a subscription right received in the rights offering after disposing of the shares of our common stock with respect
to which such subscription right is received, then certain aspects of the tax treatment of the exercise of the subscription right
are unclear, including (1) the allocation of the tax basis between the shares of common stock previously sold and the subscription
right, (2) the impact of such allocation on the amount and timing of gain or loss recognized with respect to the shares of our
common stock previously sold and (3) the impact of such allocation on the tax basis of the shares of our common stock and warrants
acquired upon exercise of the subscription right. If you exercise a subscription right received in the rights offering after disposing
of shares of our common stock with respect to which the subscription right is received, you should consult with your own tax advisor.
Expiration
of Subscription Rights
If
you allow subscription rights received in the rights offering to expire, you should not recognize any gain or loss for U.S. federal
income tax purposes, and you should re-allocate any portion of the tax basis in your existing common stock previously allocated
to the subscription rights that have expired to the existing common stock.
Taxation
of Warrants
Sale,
Exchange, Redemption or other Taxable Disposition of Warrants
Upon
the sale, exchange, redemption or other taxable disposition of a warrant, in general, you will recognize taxable gain or loss
measured by the difference, if any, between (i) the amount of cash and the fair market value of any property received upon such
taxable disposition and (ii) your adjusted tax basis in the warrant as determined pursuant to the rules discussed above. Your
gain or loss generally will be capital gain or loss and generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if, at the time of the
sale or other disposition, your holding period for the warrant is more than one year. The deductibility of capital losses is subject
to limitations.
Exercise
of Warrants
Upon
the exercise of a warrant by paying the exercise price in cash, in general, you will not recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal
income tax purposes, except to the extent you receive a cash payment for any such fractional share that would otherwise have been
issuable upon exercise of the warrant. Your initial tax basis in common stock received will equal your adjusted tax basis in the
warrant exercised (as determined pursuant to the rules discussed above), increased by the amount of cash paid to exercise the
warrant and decreased by the adjusted tax basis allocable to any fractional share that would otherwise have been issuable upon
exercise of the warrant. Your holding period for the shares of our common stock received on exercise generally will commence on
the day of exercise.
The
tax consequences of a cashless exercise are not clear and could differ from the consequences described above, including the possibility
that a cashless exercise could be a taxable event. You should consult your own tax advisor regarding the tax consequences of a
cashless exercise of a Warrant.
Expiration
of Warrants
If
you allow a warrant to expire, you will generally recognize a loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes equal to your adjusted
tax basis in the warrant. In general, such a loss will be a capital loss and will be a short-term or long-term capital loss depending
on your holding period for the warrant.
Certain
Adjustments to the Warrants
Under
Section 305 of the Code, an adjustment to the number of common shares that will be issued on the exercise of the warrants, or
an adjustment to the exercise price of the warrants, may be treated as a constructive distribution to you if, and to the extent
that, such adjustment has the effect of increasing your proportionate interest in our earnings and profits or assets, depending
on the circumstances of such adjustment (for example, if such adjustment is to compensate for a distribution of cash or other
property to our stockholders). Adjustments to the exercise price of warrants made pursuant to a bona fide reasonable adjustment
formula that has the effect of preventing dilution of the interest of the holders of the warrants should generally not be considered
to result in a constructive distribution. Any such constructive distribution would be taxable whether or not there is an actual
distribution of cash or other property. See the more detailed discussion of the rules applicable to distributions made by us under
the heading “Taxation of Common Stock — Distributions” below.
Taxation
of Common Stock
Distributions
Distributions
with respect to shares of our common stock acquired upon exercise of subscription rights or upon exercise of warrants will be
taxable as dividend income when actually or constructively received to the extent of our current or accumulated earnings and profits
as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Dividend
income received by certain non-corporate U.S. holders with respect to shares of our common stock generally will be “qualified
dividends” subject to preferential rates of U.S. federal income tax, provided that the U.S. holder meets applicable holding
period and other requirements. Subject to similar exceptions for short-term and hedged positions, dividend income on our shares
of common stock paid to U.S. Holders that are domestic corporations generally will qualify for the dividends-received deduction.
To the extent that the amount of a distribution exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits, such distribution will
be treated first as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of your adjusted tax basis in such shares of our common stock and
thereafter as capital gain.
Dispositions
If
you sell or otherwise dispose of shares of common stock acquired upon exercise of subscription rights or upon exercise of warrants
in a taxable transaction, you will generally recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized
and your adjusted tax basis in the shares. Such capital gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if your holding period
for such shares is more than one year at the time of disposition. Long-term capital gain of a non-corporate U.S. Holder is generally
taxed at preferential rates of U.S. federal income tax. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.
Information
Reporting and Backup Withholding
You
may be subject to information reporting and/or backup withholding with respect to the gross proceeds from the disposition of Warrants,
shares of our common stock acquired through the exercise of Subscription Rights or through the exercise of Warrants, or dividend
payments. Backup withholding (currently at the rate of 28%) may apply under certain circumstances if you (1) fail to furnish your
social security or other taxpayer identification number, or TIN, (2) furnish an incorrect TIN, (3) fail to report interest or
dividends properly or (4) fail to provide a certified statement, signed under penalty of perjury, that the TIN provided is correct,
that you are not subject to backup withholding and that you are a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes on IRS Form
W-9. Any amount withheld from a payment under the backup withholding rules is allowable as a credit against (and may entitle you
to a refund with respect to) your U.S. federal income tax liability, provided that the required information is timely furnished
to the IRS. Certain persons are exempt from information reporting and backup withholding, including corporations and certain financial
institutions, provided that they demonstrate this fact, if requested. You are urged to consult your own tax advisor as to your
qualification for exemption from backup withholding and the procedure for obtaining such exemption.
Tax
Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders
Taxation
of the Subscription Rights
Receipt,
Exercise and Expiration of the Subscription Rights
The
discussion below assumes that the receipt of Subscription Rights will be treated as a non-taxable distribution. See “Tax
Consequences to U.S. Holders — Taxation of Subscription Rights — Receipt of Subscription Rights” above.
Exercise
and Expiration of Warrants and Certain Adjustments to Warrants
Exercise
of Warrants
In
general, a Non-U.S. Holder will not recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes upon exercise of a Warrant, except
to the extent the Non-U.S. Holder receives a cash payment for any such fractional share that would otherwise have been issuable
upon exercise of the Warrant, which will be treated as a sale subject to the rules described under “Sale or Other Disposition
of our Common Stock or Warrants” below.
Expiration
of Warrants
In
general, a Non-U.S. Holder will not be able to utilize a loss recognized upon expiration of a Warrant against the Non-U.S. Holder’s
U.S. federal income tax liability unless the loss is effectively connected with the Non-U.S. Holder’s conduct of a trade
or business within the United States (and, if an income tax treaty so provides, is attributable to a permanent establishment in
the United States) or is treated as a U.S.-source loss and the Non-U.S. Holder is present 183 days or more in the taxable year
of disposition and certain other conditions are met.
Certain
Adjustments to the Warrants
Under
Section 305 of the Code, an adjustment to the number of common shares that will be issued on the exercise of the Warrants, or
an adjustment to the exercise price of the Warrants, may be treated as a constructive distribution to a Non-U.S. Holder of the
Warrants if, and to the extent that, such adjustment has the effect of increasing such Non-U.S. Holder’s proportionate interest
in our “earnings and profits” or assets, depending on the circumstances of such adjustment (for example, if such adjustment
is to compensate for a distribution of cash or other property to our stockholders). Adjustments to the exercise price of Warrants
made pursuant to a bona fide reasonable adjustment formula that has the effect of preventing dilution of the interest of the holders
of the Warrants should generally not be considered to result in a constructive distribution. Any such constructive distribution
would be taxable whether or not there is an actual distribution of cash or other property. See the more detailed discussion of
the rules applicable to distributions made by us under the heading “— Taxation of Distributions on Common Stock”
below.
Taxation
of Distributions on Common Stock
Any
distributions of cash or property (including any adjustments to the Warrants described in the immediately preceding paragraph)
made with respect to our Common Stock generally will be subject to withholding tax to the extent paid out of our current or accumulated
earnings and profits as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes, if any, at a rate of 30% (or a lower rate prescribed
by an applicable income tax treaty). In order to obtain a reduced withholding tax rate, if applicable, you will be required to
provide a properly completed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, certifying your entitlement to benefits under
a treaty. In addition, you will not be subject to withholding tax if you provide an IRS Form W-8ECI certifying that the distributions
are effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if an applicable income tax
treaty so provides, are attributable to a permanent establishment within the United States); instead, you generally will be subject
to U.S. federal income tax, net of certain deductions, with respect to such income at the same rates applicable to U.S. persons.
If you are a corporation, a “branch profits tax” of 30% (or a lower rate prescribed by an applicable income tax treaty)
also may apply to such effectively connected income.
Non-U.S.
Holders may be required to periodically update their IRS Forms W-8.
Any
distribution will also be subject to the discussion below under the headings “Information Reporting and Backup Withholding”
and “FATCA.”
Sale
or Other Disposition of Our Common Stock or Warrants
Subject
to the discussion below regarding backup withholding and FATCA, you generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on
any gain realized on a sale or other disposition of shares of our common stock or warrants unless:
●
the gain is effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if an applicable income
tax treaty so provides, is attributable to a permanent establishment in the United States);
●
you are an individual, you hold your Subscription Rights, shares of Common Stock or Warrants as capital assets, you are present
in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of disposition and certain other conditions are met (in which case
you will be subject to a 30% tax, or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty, on the net gain derived
from the disposition, which may be offset by your U.S.-source capital losses, if any); or
●
we are or have been a “United States real property holding corporation,” or USRPHC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes
unless an exception for 5% or less stockholders applies.
Gain
that is effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if an applicable income
tax treaty so provides, is attributable to a permanent establishment within the United States) generally will be subject to U.S.
federal income tax, net of certain deductions, at the same rates applicable to U.S. persons. If you are a corporation, a “branch
profits tax” of 30% (or a lower rate prescribed in an applicable income tax treaty) also may apply to such effectively connected
gain.
A
domestic corporation is treated as a USRPHC if the fair market value of its United States real property interests equals or exceeds
50% of the sum of (1) the fair market value of its United States real property interests, (2) the fair market value of its non-United
States real property interests and (3) the fair market value of any other of its assets which are used or held for use in a trade
or business. We believe that we are not currently, and have not been within the relevant testing period, a USRPHC. However, no
assurance can be given that we will not become a USRPHC in the future. If we are a USRPHC or become a USRPHC in the future, a
Non-U.S. Holder may still not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a sale or other disposition if an exception for 5% or less
stockholders applies. You are urged to consult your own tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax considerations that
could result if we are, or become, a USRPHC and with respect to the exception for 5% or less stockholders.
Information
Reporting and Backup Withholding
Distributions
on our common stock and the amount of tax withheld, if any, with respect to such distributions will generally be subject to information
reporting. If you comply with certification procedures to establish that you are not a United States person, additional information
reporting and backup withholding should not generally apply to distributions on our Common Stock and information reporting and
backup withholding should not generally apply to the proceeds from a sale or other disposition of warrants or shares of our common
stock. Generally, a Non-U.S. Holder will comply with such procedures if it provides a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E,
as applicable, (or other applicable IRS Form W-8) or otherwise meets documentary evidence requirements for establishing that it
is a Non-U.S. Holder, or otherwise establishes an exemption. The amount of any backup withholding will generally be allowed as
a refund or credit against your U.S. federal income tax liability, provided that the required information is timely furnished
to the IRS.
FATCA
Payments
of dividends on our common stock to a Non-U.S. Holder will be subject to a 30% withholding tax if the Non-U.S. Holder fails to
provide the withholding agent with documentation sufficient to show that it is compliant with FATCA. Generally such documentation
is provided on an executed and properly completed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable. If dividends are subject
to the 30% withholding tax under FATCA, they will not be subject to the 30% withholding tax described above under “Tax Consequences
to Non-U.S. Holders — Taxation of Distributions on Common Stock.” Starting in 2019, payments of the gross proceeds
from a sale or exchange of our Common Stock or other securities may also be subject to FATCA withholding absent proof of FATCA
compliance prior to January 1, 2019.
THE
PRECEDING DISCUSSION OF MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES IS NOT TAX ADVICE. HOLDERS OF SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS, SHARES
OF OUR COMMON STOCK SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE APPLICATION OF THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAWS TO THEIR
PARTICULAR SITUATIONS AND THE CONSEQUENCES UNDER FEDERAL ESTATE AND GIFT TAX LAWS, FOREIGN, STATE AND LOCAL LAWS AND TAX TREATIES
OF THE RECEIPT, OWNERSHIP AND EXERCISE OF SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS AND THE ACQUISITION, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF SHARES OF OUR
COMMON STOCK, AND WARRANTS ACQUIRED UPON EXERCISE OF SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS AND SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK ACQUIRED UPON EXERCISE
WARRANTS.
Tax
Consequences to the Company
At
January 1, 2017 , we had NOL carryforwards of approximately $7,859,000 for U.S. federal income tax purposes. An
ownership change generally occurs and produces an annual limitation on the utilization of our pre-ownership change NOLs and certain
other tax assets if the aggregate stock ownership of holders of at least 5% of our stock increases by more than 50 percentage
points over the preceding three-year period. The amount of annual limitation generally is equal to the value of our stock immediately
prior to the ownership change multiplied by the adjusted federal long-term tax-exempt rate. The purchase of shares of our common
stock pursuant to the rights offering may trigger an ownership change with respect to our stock.
USE
OF PROCEEDS
Assuming
full participation in the rights offering, we estimate that the net proceeds from the rights offering will be approximately $4,250,000,
after deducting expenses related to this rights offering payable by us estimated at approximately $750,000, including dealer-manager
fees.
We
are conducting the rights offering to raise capital that we intend to use for general corporate purposes.. If we are fully subscribed,
we expect to allocate $3,600,000 to opening new stores and the remainder of $650,000 to general corporate purposes.
We
have broad discretion in determining how the proceeds of this rights offering will be used, and our discretion is not limited
by the aforementioned possible uses. The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures will depend on numerous contingencies,
including the extent to which the rights offering is subscribed, the aggregate amount raised in the rights offering, the cost
to implement of our intended plans for growth, and the amount of cash used by our operations.
To
the extent that the rights offering is not fully subscribed, we will not realize sufficient capital to fund all of the proposed
uses of proceeds (including opening of new stores), and will necessarily have to prioritize and otherwise limit our uses of proceeds
to accommodate our immediate capital demands until such time as additional funds can be raised.
Our
board of directors believes the flexibility in application of the net proceeds is prudent.
PLAN
OF DISTRIBUTION
Promptly
after the record date for the rights offering, we will distribute the subscription rights and subscription documents to stockholders
of record as of 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on February 22, 2018. If you wish to exercise your subscription rights, you should

LEGAL
PROCEEDINGS
We are not party to any
lawsuits or legal proceedings, the adverse outcome of which, in management’s opinion, individually or in the aggregate,
would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position, and have no knowledge of any
threatened or potential lawsuits or legal proceedings against us. From time to time, we may be involved in litigation relating
to claims arising out of operations in the ordinary course of business.
DESCRIPTION
OF SECURITIES
Our
authorized capital stock consists of 1,125,000,000 shares of common stock, having a $0.001 par value per share. The holders of
our common stock are entitled to receive dividends out of assets or funds legally available for the payment of dividends at such
times and in such amounts as the Board from time to time may determine. Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for
each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. There is no cumulative voting of the election of directors
then standing for election. Our common stock is not entitled to pre-emptive rights and is not subject to conversion or redemption.
Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the assets legally available for distribution to stockholders are
distributable ratably among the holders of our common stock after payment of liabilities, accrued dividends and liquidation preferences,
if any. Each outstanding share of our common stock is duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
Anti-Takeover
Effects of Provisions of Nevada State Law
We
may in the future become subject to Nevada’s control share laws. A corporation is subject to Nevada’s control share
law if it has more than 200 stockholders of record, at least 100 of whom are residents of Nevada, and if the corporation does
business in Nevada, including through an affiliated corporation. This control share law may have the effect of discouraging corporate
takeovers. The Company currently has fewer than 100 stockholders of record who are residents of Nevada and does not do business
in Nevada.
The
control share law focuses on the acquisition of a “controlling interest,” which means the ownership of outstanding
voting shares that would be sufficient, but for the operation of the control share law, to enable the acquiring person to exercise
the following proportions of the voting power of the corporation in the election of directors: (1) one-fifth or more but less
than one-third; (2) one-third or more but less than a majority; or (3) a majority or more. The ability to exercise this voting
power may be direct or indirect, as well as individual or in association with others.
The
effect of the control share law is that an acquiring person, and those acting in association with that person, will obtain only
such voting rights in the control shares as are conferred by a resolution of the stockholders of the corporation, approved at
a special or annual meeting of stockholders. The control share law contemplates that voting rights will be considered only once
by the other stockholders. Thus, there is no authority to take away voting rights from the control shares of an acquiring person
once those rights have been approved. If the stockholders do not grant voting rights to the control shares acquired by an acquiring
person, those shares do not become permanent non-voting shares. The acquiring person is free to sell the shares to others. If
the buyer or buyers of those shares themselves do not acquire a controlling interest, the shares are not governed by the control
share law any longer.
If
control shares are accorded full voting rights and the acquiring person has acquired control shares with a majority or more of
the voting power, a stockholder of record, other than the acquiring person, who did not vote in favor of approval of voting rights
for the control shares, is entitled to demand fair value for such stockholder’s shares.
In
addition to the control share law, Nevada has a business combination law, which prohibits certain business combinations between
Nevada corporations and “interested stockholders” for two years after the interested stockholder first becomes an
interested stockholder, unless the corporation’s board of directors approves the combination in advance. For purposes of
Nevada law, an interested stockholder is any person who is: (a) the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of
the voting power of the outstanding voting shares of the corporation, or (b) an affiliate or associate of the corporation and
at any time within the previous two years was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of the voting power
of the then-outstanding shares of the corporation. The definition of “business combination” contained in the statute
is sufficiently broad to cover virtually any kind of transaction that would allow a potential acquirer to use the corporation’s
assets to finance the acquisition or otherwise to benefit its own interests rather than the interests of the corporation and its
other stockholders.
The
effect of Nevada’s business combination law is to potentially discourage a party interested in taking control of the Company
from doing so if it cannot obtain the approval of our Board.
Warrants
Included in Units Issuable in the Rights Offering
The
Warrants to be issued as a part of this rights offering will be separately transferable following their issuance and through their
expiration 5 years from the date of issuance. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock at
an exercise price of per share equal to $[●] from the date of issuance. We do not intend to list the warrants on
any stock exchange or seek to have them quoted on the OTC Markets. The common stock underlying the warrants, upon issuance, will
also be traded on OTCQB under the symbol “GIGL”, subject to the continued quotation of our common stock on the OTC
Markets. Without a trading market, the liquidity of the warrants will be limited.
All
warrants that are purchased in the rights offering as part of the Units will be issued in book-entry, or uncertificated, form
meaning that you will receive a direct registration (DRS) account statement from our transfer agent reflecting ownership of warrants
if you are a holder of record of shares. The subscription agent will arrange for the issuance of the warrants as soon as practicable
after the expiration of the rights offering, payment for the units subscribed for has cleared, and all prorating calculations
and reductions contemplated by the terms of the rights offering have been effected. If you hold your shares of common stock in
the name of a custodian bank, broker, dealer, or other nominee, DTC will credit your account with your nominee with the warrants
you purchased in the rights offering.
The
warrants will be exercisable by paying the exercise price in cash, or exercisable on a cashless basis.
The
exercise price of the warrants and the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants are subject to
adjustment in certain circumstances, including a stock split of, stock dividend on, or a subdivision, combination or recapitalization
of the common stock.
Except
as described below, a holder may not exercise any portion of the warrant to the extent that the holder would beneficially own
more than 4.99% of our outstanding common stock after exercise, except that upon at least 61 days’ prior notice from the
holder to us, the holder may increase the amount of ownership of outstanding stock after exercising the holder’s warrants
up to 9.99% of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage
ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the warrants. The foregoing limitation on exercise does not apply to any
holder who beneficially owns in excess of 4.99% of our outstanding common stock immediately prior to the rights offering.
Subject
to applicable laws and the restriction on transfer set forth in the warrant, the warrant may be transferred at the option of the
holder upon surrender of the warrant to us together with the appropriate instruments of transfer.
The
warrants do not confer upon the holder any voting or any other rights of a stockholder of the Company. Upon notice to the warrants
holders, we have the right at any time and from time to time, to reduce the exercise price or to extend the warrants termination
date.
The
warrants will be issued pursuant to a warrant agreement by and between us and West Coast Stock Transfer Inc. as the warrant
agent.

Indemnification

Our
Bylaws provide for the indemnification of our officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law.
Limitation
of Liability of Directors
Pursuant
to the Nevada General Corporation Law, our Articles of Incorporation exclude personal liability for our Directors for monetary
damages based upon any violation of their fiduciary duties as Directors, except as to liability for any breach of the duty of
loyalty, acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, or any transaction
from which a Director receives an improper personal benefit. This exclusion of liability does not limit any right which a Director
may have to be indemnified and does not affect any Director’s liability under federal or applicable state securities laws.
We have agreed to indemnify our directors against expenses, judgments, and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any claim
against a Director if he acted in good faith and in a manner he believed to be in our best interests.

Officers are appointed to serve until the meeting of the Board of Directors following the next annual meeting of stockholders

Section
16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section
16(a) of the Exchange Act, requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent
of our common stock, to file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership with the SEC. Executive officers,
directors and greater-than-ten-percent beneficial owners are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section
16(a) forms they file. Based upon a review of the copies of such forms furnished to us and written representations from our executive
officers and directors, we believe that as of the date of this filing they were all current in their filings.
Code
of Ethics
A
code of ethics relates to written standards that are reasonably designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:
|
1)
|
Honest
and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional
relationships;
|
|
|
|
|
2)
|
Full,
fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that are filed with, or submitted to, the Commission
and in other public communications made by an issuer;
|
|
|
|
|
3)
|
Compliance
with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;
|
|
|
|
|
4)
|
The
prompt internal reporting of violations of the code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the code; and
|
|
|
|
|
5)
|
Accountability
for adherence to the code.
|
We
have not adopted a corporate code of ethics that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal
accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions.
Our
decision to not adopt such a code of ethics results from our having a small management structure for the Company. We believe that
the limited interaction which occurs having such a small management structure for the Company eliminates the current need for
such a code, in that violations of such a code would be reported to the party generating the violation.
Corporate
Governance
Our
board of directors is comprised of one director, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. We do not have any independent
directors or a standing audit, nominating or compensation committee and, as a company
whose
shares are listed on the OTC Market Group’s OTCQB
, we are not required to implement
NYSE/Nasdaq-level
corporate governance standards.
Involvement
in Certain Legal Proceedings
To
the best of our knowledge, none of our executive officers or directors are parties to any material proceedings adverse to Giggles,
have any material interest adverse to Giggles or have, during the past ten years been subject to legal or regulatory proceedings
required to be disclosed hereunder.
SECURITY
OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
The
following table presents information, to the best of our knowledge, about the beneficial ownership of our common stock on February
2, 2018 by those persons known to beneficially own more than 5% of our capital stock and by our Directors and executive officers.
The percentage of beneficial ownership for the following table is based on 145,602,251 shares of common stock outstanding.
Beneficial
ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and does not necessarily indicate
beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under these rules, beneficial ownership includes those shares of common stock over
which the stockholder has sole or shared voting or investment power. It also includes shares of common stock that the stockholder
has a right to acquire within 60 days after February 2, 2018 pursuant to options, warrants, conversion privileges or other
rights. The percentage of ownership of the outstanding common stock, however, is based on the assumption, expressly required by
the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, that only the person or entity whose ownership is being reported has converted
options or warrants into shares of our common stock.

DESCRIPTION
OF BUSINESS
Business
Development
Giggles
N Hugs, Inc. was formed as a Nevada corporation on September 17, 2004. On August 2010, Giggles changed its name from Teacher’s
Pet, Inc. to Giggles N Hugs, Inc. Effective December 30, 2011, Giggles completed the acquisition of GNH, Inc. (“GNH”)
through the acquisition of 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of GNH.
Giggles
currently owns and operates kid-friendly restaurants named Giggles N Hugs in the Westfield Topanga Shopping Center located in
Woodland Hills, California, and the Glendale Galleria located in Glendale, California, and owns the intellectual property rights
for Giggles N Hugs facilities.
Business
Overview
Giggles
N Hugs is a unique restaurant concept that brings together high-end, organic food with the play elements and entertainment for
children. Giggles N Hugs offers an upscale, family-friendly atmosphere with a play area dedicated to children ages 10 and younger.
The restaurant has a high-quality menu made from fresh, organic foods that are enjoyed by both children and adults. With nightly
entertainment, such as magic shows, concerts, puppet shows, face painting and arts and crafts, Giggles N Hugs is a destination
for families seeking healthy food in a casual and fun atmosphere.
In
addition to its family-friendly vibe, Giggles N Hugs is also known for its own creation called “Mom’s Tricky Treat
Sauce,” which hides pureed vegetables in kids’ favorite meals such as pizza, pastas and macaroni and cheese.
The
founders, Joey Parsi and his wife, Dorsa, conceived the idea when they tried dining out with their own children, but spent the
entire evening attending to quieting their kids and avoiding disapproving stares. From this frustrating experience, they discovered
that there was a significant need for high-quality restaurants where play time, healthy food, and happy parents could converge.
This idea led to the creation of Giggles N Hugs,a destination for parents and kids to play and have fun while enjoying a gourmet
meal.
Our
restaurant offers a combination of high quality food and beverage with attentive service to ensure a memorable experience. Our
play areas are supervised by staff members who promote positive interaction, fun, and activities in such a way that their presence
often overshadows the presence of the vast number of toys and daily entertainment we offer. Our restaurant features kid-size castles,
giant climbers, a pirate ship, and a walk-on dragon, as well as tricycles, swings, bounces, and an abundant selection of
toys in each location. The Giggles N Hugs team is a group of individuals that have been hired and trained to reflect our core
beliefs of creating an environment for families to bond and interact with one another. We encourage our staff members to be more
than just employees, but instead to become friends with our guests. The family-friendly feel of the restaurant and play space
reflects its image and individuality in the marketplace.
Restaurant
Concept:
Our
operating restaurants are located in the Westfield Topanga Mall, in Woodland Hills, California and in Glendale Galleria in Glendale,
California. Our restaurants have approximately 6,000 square feet of space, of which roughly 2,000 square feet are
allocated for the play area, roughly 2,500 square feet for the dining area, and roughly 1,500 square feet for the kitchen.
Dining
Area:
Giggles
N Hugs has arranged its spacious dining area so that every table has a view of the play area. Parents have the convenience of
watching their children from a distance without having to leave their seats. Parents can sit down and enjoy their meals comfortably
while their kids play. Sleek and modern white chairs and colorful utensils are used to appeal to the kids. All utensils are unbreakable
and kid-friendly.
Menu:
We
pride ourselves in our upscale entrée selections that are both nutritious and appetizing. For children, we offer macaroni
and cheese, turkey dogs, and turkey burgers. We incorporate nutritious vegetables into typical children favorites, such as pureed
butternut squash in the macaroni and cheese, pureed spinach in our pizza and spaghetti sauce, and whole wheat bread buns for our
sandwiches. We also offer delicious salads, such as “Goat Cheese and Beet Salad,” “Chinese Chicken Salad,”
and “Honey Peanut and Apple Salad.” Some of our gourmet entrees include grilled salmon, “Chicken Milanese,”
and fresh paninis. For guests who have specific dietary restrictions, we offer a variety of alternative menu items including
non-dairy milk, gluten free pasta, and whole grain breads.
Play
area:
The
uniqueness of a child’s imagination can run wild in our exceptionally designed play space. In the center of our restaurant
is our padded 2,000 approximate square foot children’s play area. The magical play space includes a life-size pirate
ship for boys and girls to climb into and slide off of, a fairytale play castle for the princes and princesses to let their imaginations
run wild, and a green dragon for the smaller kids to climb. Along with the signature pieces, the play area also highlights kids’
favorite toys, play kitchens, and cars. Safety is a priority when it comes to our guests. Our highly skilled and inspirational
staff understands the importance of each child’s safety and genuine joy while at Giggles N Hugs. They make balloon animals,
paint faces, and give temporary tattoos to the kids. They also sing songs, read books, and play games to keep the fun times rolling.
The overall design of the restaurant exudes a magical, whimsical feeling, while maintaining an aura of sophistication and detail,
particularly in the dining area, to appeal to parents. With a small admission fee, children can play all day and enjoy activities
and entertainment in the Giggles N Hugs play area.
Activities
and Entertainment:
Entertainment
is a fundamental part of our restaurant. Story-telling, singing, and game sessions conducted by the staff members are just a few
of our options. For a more calm and relaxing experience, we offer movie nights. For those guests looking for a more upbeat experience,
we have “Disco Night” and “Kids Karaoke.” We also offer magic shows, puppet shows, arts and crafts, Play-Doh,
and contests such as talent shows and “Simon Says,” as well as other impromptu games that allow our staff and parents
to bond with their children.
Birthday
Parties and other Special Events:
Each
Giggles ‘N Hugs location has the capacity to host up to 500 guests for birthday parties and special events for two hours
or more. Packages include food, cake, facility use, party favors, and activities. Giggles ‘N Hugs goes to great lengths
to make birthday parties worry-free for parents. This includes sending out invitations, arranging entertainment, and providing
catering and staffing. Giggles ‘N Hugs is great for all special events including holiday parties, fundraisers, family get-togethers,
and other celebrations.
History
The
original Giggles N Hugs opened its doors in February of 2008 and was located in the posh Brentwood district of Los Angeles. The
unique design and 1,500 square-foot play area was a huge success and solidified our proof of concept. However, due to the limited
size of the location, our ability to offer “drop-off” services, one of our most popular features, was hindered. Drop-off
services allow parents to drop their children off in our play area and go shopping while their children play in a supervised environment.
In addition, other factors such as lack of available parking, the location’s strip mall characteristics, and isolated location
became problematic. As a result, we decided it was in our best interest to close the restaurant and secure a larger venue elsewhere.
With
the successful launch and proof of concept that was realized at our Brentwood location, the Company decided to expand to the Westfield
Shopping Mall in Century City in December of 2010. This ideal location highlights a play space two times the size of the original
location and includes additional sources of revenue including, food and beverage sales, beer and wine sales, admission and monthly
membership fees, private party rentals, and in-store merchandise.
Expansion
Our
intent is to expand and open new stores either through the Company-owned approach, using the franchise model, or both, but such
expansion will be limited to our ability to raise capital to meet this need. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to achieve
our expansion goals or that new restaurants will generate sufficient revenues or be operated profitably.
Company-owned
stores
.
We estimate that we would have to expend $700,000 - $900,000 (net of any – landlord-tenant improvement allowances)
to construct, staff, and open each new restaurant, excluding rent. Our build- out cost of new restaurants will vary depending
on a number of factors, including the size of the location, whether we are converting an existing restaurant space as we did with
our Brentwood location, or moving into a “build to suit” location constructed from a building shell, typically with
a monetary contribution (also typically referred to as a tenant improvement allowance) from the landlord. While the latter development
model generally involves greater costs (depending on the level of landlord contribution) and time to open (because the permitting
process is typically significantly longer), we believe that positioning our restaurants in popular, “marquee” locations
(which typically operate on the “build to suit” model) will greatly increase public awareness and recognition of the
Giggles brand, which we believe is critical to our continued growth.
We
cannot guarantee that we will be able to achieve our expansion goals or that new restaurants will generate sufficient revenues
or be operated profitably.
Marketing
and Advertising
To
date, our marketing and advertising has been extremely limited as we have conserved working capital for operational purposes.
Our primary marketing has been through word-of-mouth from existing customers and some limited print-based advertising.
Once
we have sufficient financing, we plan to market our products and services through a multi-pronged campaign. To this end, Giggles
N Hugs will directly engage local preschools, kindergartens, and elementary schools. We believe our cause and community marketing
would better root our presence in the minds of area locals. With additional marketing capital, Giggles N Hugs plans to advertise
on television channels such as Disney and Nickelodeon, as well as in additional print publications, radio, and satellite radio.
Our first store has been frequented by numerous celebrities, which provides free and invaluable publicity. We believe a large
scale marketing campaign that increases exposure to Giggles N Hugs could result in a significant increase in our revenue.
With
sufficient financing allocated to marketing efforts, of which there can be no assurance, we
intend to design an aggressive and creative promotional strategy aimed to maximize our exposure to the target audience. We believe
the following direct and indirect advertising methods could increase exposure and visibility of the “Giggles N Hugs”
brand in our community:
|
●
|
Viral
Marketing:
Word-of-mouth advertising in conjunction with other secondary advertising methods functions to spread our already-popular
name. Celebrity patronage is especially useful in this regard.
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Internet
Advertising:
We would allot portions of our marketing budget for strategic Internet marketing, including search engine
optimization. This tactic involves organically improving the quality and volume of traffic to a website through search engine
searches. Search engine optimization can also target different kinds of searches, including image, local, and industry- specific
vertical search engines.
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Television
advertising:
We recognize that television advertising is an effective means of reaching a large target population. For
this reason we plan to advertise on local cable channels, such as The Disney Channel and Nickelodeon.
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Special
events/sponsorships:
We may sponsor local events and organizations in an effort to contribute to surrounding neighborhoods
and the overall community, which concurrently builds community awareness of our stores.
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Print
media-magazines:
Print advertisements will continue to be placed in select magazines and newspapers for weekly and/or
monthly distribution. These advertisements include a brief description of the Company, comprehensive explanatory images and/or
text detailing products, and also offer limited time discounts.
|
Also,
through our recent engagement of Domain and Michelle Steinburg, who joined our team in early 2016, we’ve brought on two
high-profile brand ambassadors, Jillian Michaels and Tia Mowry-Hardict. We hope to attract other celebrities to help us spread
the Giggles N’ Hugs story further, extending our reach. With Domain’s help, we intend on having our brand ambassadors
appear on national talk and entertainment shows on major networks and cable TV outlets.
Competition
Giggles
N’ Hugs faces competition from other family-oriented establishments, especially businesses that operate under the
national franchise model. This is primarily populated by the industry giant Chuck E. Cheese, which caters to older children and
only serves pizza and related foods. Most play areas have minimal food preparation areas, if any, consisting only of a microwave
oven or toaster.
The
major competitors in the Company’s immediate area are Child’s Play and Under the Sea Indoor Playground. These businesses
operate under the play area model and are mostly used as birthday party venues or weekend playgrounds, as opposed to a food and
entertainment destination like Giggles N Hugs. To our knowledge, these businesses are so popular among children that they are
booked for months in advance in most cases for birthday parties and other celebrations. These businesses provide an excellent
insight into the demand for our business model, which improves upon the competition by providing healthy food choices in a true
restaurant environment.
We
enjoy numerous advantages in our target market that other companies fail to deliver. The following list describes each advantage:
Delicious,
but also nutritious, food.
Sundry,
novel, child-oriented toys and overall environment.
Quality
offerings for adults while waiting.
Theme
nights such as “Disco Night”.
Entertainment
such as puppet shows, magic shows and music shows.
“Aides”
to assist in the kids’ enjoyment while parents relax.
We
are aware that many of our competitors and potential competitors have greater financial and other resources, have been in business
longer, have greater name recognition and are better established in the markets where our first restaurant is located and where
our future restaurants will be located. Although we believe that our restaurant concept offers features and advantages not currently
available elsewhere, and we have taken reasonable steps to adequately protect our proprietary concepts and other intellectual
property, we cannot assure you that these companies will not seek to copy aspects of our restaurant concept, or develop similar
or competing features, in the future.
Government
Regulation
Our
restaurant operations will be subject to licensing and regulation by state and local departments and health, sanitation, zoning
and fire, and to periodic review by the state and municipal authorities for areas in which the restaurants are located. In addition,
we will be subject to local land use, zoning, building, planning and traffic ordinances and regulations in the selection and acquisition
of suitable sites for developing new restaurants. Delays in obtaining, or denials of, or revocation or temporary suspension of,
necessary licenses or approvals could have a material adverse impact on our development of restaurants.
Our
restaurant operations will also be subject to regulation under the Fair Labor Standards Act, which governs such matters as working
conditions and minimum wages. An increase in the minimum wage rate or the cost of workers’ compensation insurance, or changes
in tip-credit provisions, employee benefit costs (including costs associated with mandated health insurance coverage), or other
costs associated with employees could adversely affect our Company.
In
addition, our restaurant operations will be subject to the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. The ADA may require us to
make certain installations in our planned restaurants to meet federally and state mandated requirements.
Intellectual
Property
We
have filed and received a United States federal trademark registration for “GIGGLES N HUGS, INC.,” “GIGGLES
N HUGS,” and other marks. We have registered the www.gigglesnhugs.com domain name. We consider our trademarks and other
intellectual property rights to be important to our branding strategy and business success.
Personnel
As
of the date of this filing, and as a result of our recent organizational establishment, we have 50 employees.
MANAGEMENT’S

Net
Sales
. During the fiscal year ended January 1, 2017, net sales reflected a drop of $428,278, a decline of 12.4%, from the
fiscal year ended December 27, 2015. Due to the major remodeling of the Century City Westfield Mall, our Century City store
closed on June 30, 2016. Of the decrease in sales of $428,278, $555,287 relates to the closure of the Century City location. The
increase of $127,009 is due to the same store sale growth at our other two locations. The Topanga and Glendale stores had
increased sales of 5.3% and 5.7%, respectively.
Cost
and operating expenses.
Total costs and operating expenses of $3,953,942 for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2017,
reflected a substantial drop from $5,480,307 for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2015. The decline of $1,526,365 (28%)
was due to multiple factors such as the closing of the Century City store; lower general and administrative costs; lower other
operating expenses; and lower depreciation.
Cost
of Operations.
Cost of operations decreased by $543,460 (18%), of which $356,772 was attributable to the closing of the Century
City store on June 30, 2016. Costs of food and other operating expenses decreased, which was offset slightly by higher labor costs.
General
and Administrative costs.
Total general and administrative costs decreased by $501,543 (36%). Again, the closing of the Century
City store, contributed proportionately ($163,250), to this decline. Additionally, non-employee stock compensation was accountable
of much of the remaining difference.
Depreciation
and other operating expenses.
Depreciation and other operating expenses declined by $127,948 (38%), which was mostly reflected
by the closing of the Century City store.
Loss
on Impairment.
The loss on impairment of $353,414 that occurred in the fiscal year ended December 27, 2015, also contributed
to the lower overall cost and operating expenses. There was no such impairment for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2017.
Loss
from Operations.
The loss from operations dropped $1,098,087 (54%) for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2017
compared to the fiscal year ended December 27, 2015, due to the various factors previously noted.
Other
Expenses
. Other expenses reflected a net increase in the fiscal year ended January 1, 2017 over the fiscal year
ended December 27, 2015. Finance and interest expense of $497,714 increased by $384,275 (339%) over the prior year, and change
in the fair value of derivatives caused a loss of $369,861. These expenses were partially offset by gains from the Century City
lease termination ($214,111), as well as the extinguishment of the derivatives ($190,370).
Net
Loss
. The net loss declined from $2,068,687 in the fiscal year ended December 27, 2015, to $1,386,955 for the fiscal
year ended January 1, 2017 an improvement of $681,732 (33%) due to the factors noted above.

Notes
to Costs and Operating Expenses Table:
The
net sales for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2017 and September 25, 2016 were $1,890,505, and $2,338,755, respectively.
The 19.2% decrease was solely attributable to the closing of the Century City store at the end of the 2
nd
quarter,
2016. However, the Glendale and Topanga stores reflect sales increases of $89,879 (9.7%) and $46,551 (5.7%), respectively. Together
there was a total increase of $136,430 (7.8%) for our two remaining stores during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2017.
Cost
of operations
. Cost of operations were $1,418,263 and $2,014,766 for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2017 and September
25, 2016, respectively. The decrease of $596,503 (-29.6%) was mostly attributable to the closing of the Century City store at
the end of the 2
nd

and administrative expenses
. General and administrative expenses for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2017 and September
25, 2016 were $1,463,397 and $892,098, respectively. The substantial increase of 64.0% was mostly due to the fair value of $531,000
for warrants granted for services and a $109,096 charge relating to settlement of an outstanding payable.
Depreciation
and amortization
. Depreciation and amortization were $49,608 less than the same period in the previous year. The decline was
mostly due to the closing of the Century City store at the end of the second quarter of 2016.
Finance
and interest expense
. The total finance and operating expenses were $76,919 and $424,352 for the thirty-nine weeks ended October
1, 2017 and September 25, 2016, respectively. The decrease of $347,433 (-81.9%) was mostly attribute to lower debt.
Net
Loss
. The overall net loss of $1,314,909 and $1,218,841 for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2017 and September 25,
2016, respectively, reflects an increase in the net loss of $96,068, or 7.9%. The increase in the loss is mostly attributable
to the fair value of $531,000 for warrants grated for services and a $109,096 charge to settlement of outstanding payable.
Liquidity

Operating
activities
Net
cash used in operating activities was $213,887 for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2017 compared to $578,502 used in operating
activities for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 25, 2016. This improvement of $364,615 mostly resulted from reduced costs
from the closing of our Century City store, and warrants granted for services offset by a gain on extinguishment of derivatives.
Investing
activities
The
cash provided by investing activities for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 25, 2016 was $360,500, which consisted of cash
received for the closure of the Century City store under the lease termination agreement with Westfield and the sales of remaining
fixed assets. There were no investing activities or the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2017.
Financing
activities
Net
cash provided by financing activities for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2017 was $173,502
from cash receipts from investors for future common stock issuable and the promissory note settlement. For the same period
in the previous year, the financing activities were the payments to promissory note and notes payable-lessor.
The
Company is not required to provide a tabular disclosure of contractual obligations, as it is a smaller reporting company as defined
under Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act.
Going
Concern and Liquidity
The
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates
the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in
the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2017,
the Company incurred a net loss of $1,314,909, used cash in operations of $213,887 and had a stockholders’
deficit of $1,626,577 as of that date. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue
as a going concern for one year from the date that the financial statements are issued. The ability of the Company to continue
as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional funds and implement its business plan. In
addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm in its report on the January 1, 2017 financial
statements has raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements
do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
At
October 1, 2017, the Company had cash on hand in the amount of $104,135. Management estimates that the current funds on hand would
be sufficient to continue operations through January 2018. Management is currently seeking additional funds through sponsorships
and promotions to operate our business. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available,
that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it
may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for our stock holders,
in case or equity financing.
Notes
Payable
On
February 12, 2013, the Company entered into a $700,000 Promissory Note Payable Agreement with GGP Limited Partnership (“Lender”)
to be used by the Company for a portion of the construction work to be performed by the Company under the lease by and between
the Company and Glendale II Mall Associates, LLC. The Note Payable accrued interest at a rate of 10% through October 15, 2015,
12% through October 31, 2017, and 15% through October 31, 2023 and matures on October 31, 2023.
On
March 1, 2015, the Company and the lender renegotiated the terms of the Promissory Note and agreed to a new note with a principal
balance due of $683,316. As part of the new agreement, the Lender waived principal and interest payments for two years beginning
March 1, 2015.
On
August 12, 2016, the Company entered into a third amendment on its lease at The Glendale Galleria. The amendment covered several
areas, including adjustment to percentage rent payable, reduced the minimum rent payable, along with the payment and principal
of Promissory Note. The Promissory Note was adjusted to a balance due of $763,261 from $683,316, with zero percent interest, payable
in equal monthly installments of $5,300 through maturity of Note on May 31, 2028. The Company imputed interest using a
discount rate of 10% to determine a fair value of the note of $443,521, resulting in a valuation discount of $319,740. As of October
1, 2017, the balance of the note was $695,968, and unamortized note discount was $273,607, with a net
balance due of $422,361.
The
lender under the Note is GGP Limited Partnership (GGP). GGP is an affiliate of Glendale II Mall Associates, the lessor of the
Company’s Glendale Mall restaurant location. In accordance with the note agreement, an event of default would occur if the
Borrower defaults under the lease between the Company and Glendale II Mall Associates. Upon the occurrence of an event of default,
the entire balance of the Note payable and accrued interest would become due and payable, and the balance due becomes subject
to a default interest rate (which is 5% higher than the defined interest rate).
Convertible
Notes Payable
J&N
Invest LLC
- On August 24, 2015, the Company entered into an unsecured Note Payable Agreement with an investor for which the
Company issued a $50,000 Convertible Note Payable, which accrues interest at a rate of 5% per annum and matures on August 31,
2016. The Lender may also convert all or a portion of the Note Payable at any time into shares of common stock at a price of $0.10
per share.
Promissory
Note
On
December 18, 2015, the Company issued a six-month unsecured promissory note in the principal sum of $265,000 in favor of St. George
Investments, LLC, pursuant to the terms of a securities purchase agreement of the same date. The Note went into default when the
Company failed to make payment on the due date. Consequently, on July 8, 2016, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement
with St. George Investments, LLC, to replace the original Promissory Note with a new Convertible Promissory Note (“Note”).
The Note carries a Conversion clause that allows the Holder to have a cashless conversion into shares of Common Stock for all
or part of the principal, at a price equal to the average market price for 20 days prior to the conversion. The company determined
that since the conversion floor had no limit to the conversion price, that the company could no longer determine if it had enough
authorized shares to fulfill the conversion obligation. As such, the Company determined that the conversion feature created
a derivative at the date of the modification.
During
the period ended October 1, 2017, the Holder converted $48,914 of debt into 15,660,611 shares of Common Stock. In addition, the
Company paid $7,517 of the principal balance. On March 23, 2017, St. George Investments, LLC (“St. George”) served
an arbitration demand and summons claiming that the Company had breached its obligations under a convertible note by preventing
St. George from converting the remaining balance of the note to common stock. The parties disagreed as to the conversion price
set in the note agreement due to execution by the parties of different versions of the document. St. George claimed for additional
damages. The Company believed these claims lacked merit and the Company retained counsel to vigorously defend this action. Effective
May 3, 2017, the Company counter-sued for full damages for breaching the contract, claiming mistakes, rescission, breach of the
covenant of good faith and fair dealing and unjust enrichment.
On
August 14, 2017, the Company and St. George entered into a settlement agreement whereby the Company agreed to deliver 7,900,000
unrestricted free-trading shares to SGI Immediately upon signing a final settlement agreement and St. George agreed to purchase
an additional 1,100,000 shares of the companies restricted common stock for a purchase price of $110,000 at $0.10 per share. These
shares shall be delivered pursuant to a conversion under the existing outstanding note. The shares had a fair value of $0.07 per
share as of the settlement date, or $553,000 in the aggregate. At the time of the settlement, the outstanding balance under the
note was $132,928 and accrued interest was $10,818.

Accounting Pronouncements

Note 3 of the consolidated financial statements for discussion of recent accounting pronouncements.
Critical
Accounting Policies
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies and
methods used in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, impairment
analyses, accounting for contingencies and equity instruments issued for services. Actual results could differ materially from
those estimates. The following critical accounting policies are impacted significantly by judgments, assumptions, and estimates
used in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Long-Lived
Assets
Our
management regularly reviews property, equipment and other long-lived assets, including identifiable amortizing intangibles, for
possible impairment. This review occurs quarterly or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying
amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If there is indication of impairment of property and equipment or amortizable intangible
assets, then management prepares an estimate of future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) expected to result
from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If these cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an
impairment loss is recognized to write down the asset to its estimated fair value. The fair value is estimated at the present
value of the future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with management’s estimates of the business risks. Quarterly,
or earlier, if there is indication of impairment of identified intangible assets not subject to amortization, management compares
the estimated fair value with the carrying amount of the asset. An impairment loss is recognized to write down the intangible
asset to its fair value if it is less than the carrying amount. Preparation of estimated expected future cash flows is inherently
subjective and is based on management’s best estimate of assumptions concerning expected future conditions.
Management
believes that the accounting estimate related to impairment of our long lived assets, including our trademark license and trademarks,
is a “critical accounting estimate” because: (1) it is highly susceptible to change from period to period because
it requires management to estimate fair value, which is based on assumptions about cash flows and discount rates; and (2) the
impact that recognizing an impairment would have on the assets reported on our balance sheet, as well as net income, could be
material. Management’s assumptions about cash flows and discount rates require significant judgment because actual revenues
and expenses have fluctuated in the past and we expect they will continue to do so.
Stock-Based
Compensation
The
Company periodically issues stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for
services and for financing costs. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to employees based
on the authoritative guidance provided by the Financial Accounting Standards Board whereas the value of the award is measured
on the date of grant and recognized over the vesting period. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and
vesting to non-employees in accordance with the authoritative guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board whereas the
value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance
commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. Non-employee
stock-based compensation charges generally are amortized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. In certain circumstances
where there are no future performance requirements by the non-employee, option grants are immediately vested and the total stock-based
compensation charge is recorded in the period of the measurement date.
The
fair value of the Company’s common stock option grants is estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing model, which
uses certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life of the common stock options,
and future dividends. Compensation expense is recorded based upon the value derived from the Black-Scholes Option Pricing model,
and based on actual experience. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes Option Pricing model could materially affect compensation
expense recorded in future periods.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We
did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial
condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital
resources that is material to investors.
Without
sufficient cash flow from operations we will require additional cash resources, including the sale of equity or debt securities,
to meet our planned capital expenditures and working capital requirements through January 2018. We will require additional
cash resources due to changed business conditions to implement of our strategy to successfully expand our operations. If our own
financial resources and then-current cash-flows from operations are insufficient to satisfy our capital requirements, we may seek
to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain additional credit facilities. The sale of additional equity securities
will result in dilution to our existing stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness will result in increased debt service obligations
and could require us to agree to operating and financial covenants that could restrict our operations or modify our plans to grow
the business. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any failure by us to raise additional
funds on terms favorable to us, or at all, will limit our ability to expand our business operations and could harm our overall
business prospects.
CERTAIN
RELATIONSHIPS
AND
RELATED TRANSACTIONS
From
time to time, the Company has received advances from certain of its officers to meet short term working capital needs. These advances
may not have formal repayment terms or arrangements. During the last three years, there have been no advances from related persons.
Executive
Compensation
Overview
of Compensation Program
We
currently have not appointed members to serve on the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Until a formal committee
is established, our entire Board of Directors has responsibility for establishing, implementing and continually monitoring adherence
with the Company’s compensation philosophy. The Board of Directors ensures that the total compensation paid to the executives
is fair, reasonable and competitive.
Compensation
Philosophy and Objectives
The
Board of Directors believes that the most effective executive compensation program is one that is designed to reward the achievement
of specific annual, long-term and strategic goals by the Company, and which aligns executives’ interests with those of the
stockholders by rewarding performance above established goals, with the ultimate objective of improving stockholder value. As
a result of the size of the Company and only having two executive officers, the Board evaluates both performance and compensation
on an informal basis. Upon hiring additional executives, the Board intends to establish a Compensation Committee to evaluate both
performance and compensation to ensure that the Company maintains its ability to attract and retain superior employees in key
positions and that compensation provided to key employees remains competitive relative to the compensation paid to similarly-
situated executives of our peer companies. To that end, the Board believes executive compensation packages provided by the Company
to its executives, including the named executive officers, should include both cash and stock-based compensation that reward performance
as measured against established goals.
Role
of Executive Officers in Compensation Decisions
The
Board of Directors makes all compensation decisions for, and approves recommendations regarding equity awards to, the executive
officers and Directors of the Company. Decisions regarding the non-equity compensation of other employees of the Company are made
by management.

Stock Incentive Plan
We
have reserved for issuance an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of common stock under our 2012 Stock Incentive Plan (“the Plan”)
that was adopted in February 23, 2012. During the year ended December 29, 2013, 225,000 stock options were granted under this
Plan at $4.50, with a four-year vesting period.
As
of the fiscal year ended January 1, 2017, there were no changes during the year, and 115,000 stock options remain outstanding.
Purposes
of the Plan
The
purposes of the Plan are (a) to enhance the Company’s ability to attract and retain the services of qualified employees,
officers and directors, contractors and other service providers upon whose judgment, initiative and efforts the successful conduct
and development of the Company’s business largely depends, and (b) to provide additional incentives to such persons or entities
to devote their utmost effort and skill to the advancement and betterment of the Company by providing them an opportunity to participate
in the ownership of the Company and thereby have an interest in the success and increased value of the Company.
Stock
Subject to the 2012 Plan
Shares
that are eligible for grant under the Plan to participants include Incentive Stock Options, Non- Qualified Stock Options and Restricted
Stock. “Incentive Options” are any options designated and qualified as an “incentive stock option” as
defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. “Non-Qualified Options” are any options that are not an Incentive
Option. To the extent that any option designated as an Incentive Option fails in whole or in part to qualify as an Incentive Option,
including, without limitation, for failure to meet the limitations applicable to a ten percent stockholder or because it exceeds
the annual limit, it shall to that extent constitute a Non-Qualified Option. “Restricted Stock” are shares of common
stock issued pursuant to any restrictions and conditions as established in the Plan.
The
Plan provides that a maximum of Five Million (5,000,000) shares of common stock are available for grant as awards under the Plan.
The
following table sets forth information about the 2012 stock incentive plan as of January 1, 2017.

Eligibility
Incentive

of Directors if they are employees of the Company or of an affiliated company) are eligible to receive Incentive Options under
the Plan.
Non-Qualified

the Board of Directors (whether or not employed by the Company or an affiliated company), and service providers are eligible to

Equity
Compensation Plan Information
We
maintain the Plan to allow the Company to compensate employees, directors, consultants and certain other individuals providing
bona fide services to the Company or to compensate officers, directors and employees for accrual of salary through the award of
common stock.
The
Plan is intended to encourage directors, officers, employees and consultants to acquire ownership of common stock. The opportunity
so provided is intended to foster in participants a strong incentive to put forth maximum effort for its continued success and
growth, to aid in retaining individuals who put forth such effort, and to assist in attracting the best available individuals
to the Company in the future.
Dividend
Policy
We
have not declared any cash dividends since inception and do not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. The
payment of dividends is within the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our earnings, capital requirements,
financial condition and other relevant factors. There are no restrictions that currently limit our ability to pay dividends on
our common stock other than those generally imposed by applicable state law.

NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For
the Thirty-Nine Weeks ended October 1, 2017 and September 25, 2016
(Unaudited)
NOTE
1 – HISTORY AND ORGANIZATION
Giggles
N’ Hugs, Inc. (“GIGL Inc.” or the “Company”) was originally organized on September 17, 2004 under
the laws of the State of Nevada, as Teacher’s Pet, Inc. GIGL Inc. was organized to sell teaching supplies and learning tools.
On August 20, 2010, GIGL Inc. filed an amendment to its articles of incorporation to change its name to Giggles N’ Hugs,
Inc.
On
December 30, 2011, GIGL Inc. completed the acquisition of all the issued and outstanding shares of GNH, Inc. (“GNH”),
a Nevada corporation, pursuant to a Stock Exchange Agreement. For accounting purposes, the acquisition of GNH by GIGL Inc. has
been recorded as a reverse merger. Giggles N Hugs restaurant concept brings together high-end, organic food with the play elements
and entertainment for children. Giggles N Hugs offers an upscale, family-friendly atmosphere with a play area dedicated to children
ages 10 and younger with nightly entertainment, such as magic shows, concerts, puppet shows, as well as activities and games which
include face painting, dance parties, karaoke, and arts and crafts,
The
Company adopted a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Sunday closest to December 31
st
for financial reporting purposes.
Fiscal year 2017 and 2016 consists of a year ending December 31, 2017 and January 1, 2017.
NOTE
2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The
interim financial statements included herein, presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles
and stated in US Dollars, have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared
in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
These
statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary
for fair presentation of the information contained therein. It is suggested that these interim financial statements be read in
conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended January 1, 2017 and notes thereto included in the
Company’s annual report on Form 10-K. The Company follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim reports.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2017 included herein was derived from the audited consolidated financial
statements as of that date, but does not included all disclosures, including notes, required by GAAP.
Results
of operations for the interim periods may not be indicative of annual results.
NOTE
3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Going
concern
The
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization
of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying
condensed consolidated financial statements, during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2017, the Company incurred a net loss
of $1,314,909, used cash in operations of $213,887, and had a stockholders’ deficit of $1,626,577 as of that date. These
factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to
continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional funds and implement its business
plan. In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm in its report on the January 1, 2017 financial
statements has raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from
the date that the financial statements are issued. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary
if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
The
Company had cash on hand in the amount of $104,135 as of October 1, 2017. Management estimates that the current funds on hand
will be sufficient to continue operations through January 2018. Management is currently seeking additional funds, primarily
through the issuance of debt and equity securities for cash to operate our business. No assurance can be given that any future
financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company
can obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial
dilution for our stock holders, in case or equity financing.
Principles
of consolidation
The
condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Giggles N Hugs, Inc., GNH, Inc., GNH CC, Inc. for restaurant
operations in Westfield Mall in Century City, California (which was closed June 30, 2016 due to a complete remodel of the Mall),
GNH Topanga, Inc. for restaurant operations in Westfield Topanga Shopping Center in Woodland Hills, California, and Glendale Giggles
N Hugs, Inc. for restaurant operations in Glendale Galleria in Glendale, California. Intercompany balances and transactions have
been eliminated. Giggles N Hugs, Inc., GNH, Inc., GNH CC, Inc., GNH Topanga, Inc., and Glendale Giggles N Hugs, Inc. will be collectively
referred herein to as the “Company”.
Use
of estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates
and assumptions used by management including assumptions made in impairment analysis of fixed assets, accruals of potential liabilities,
valuation of derivative liability and equity securities issued for services and realization of deferred tax assets. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
NOTE
3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Derivative
Financial Instruments
The
Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify
as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument
is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported
in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments
should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities
are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument
could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
The
Company uses Level 2 inputs for its valuation methodology for the warrant derivative liabilities as their fair values were determined
by using a probability weighted average Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model based on various assumptions. The Company’s derivative
liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded
in results of operations as adjustments to fair value of derivatives.
Loss
per common share
Net
loss per share is provided in accordance with ASC Subtopic 260-10. We present basic loss per share (“EPS”) and diluted
EPS on the face of statements of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing reported losses by the weighted average shares
outstanding. Except where the result would be anti-dilutive to income from continuing operations, diluted earnings per share has
been computed assuming the conversion of the convertible long-term debt and the elimination of the related interest expense, and
the exercise of stock options and warrants. Loss per common share has been computed using the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the year. For the period ended October 1, 2017 and September 25, 2016, the assumed conversion of convertible
notes payable and the exercise of stock warrants are anti-dilutive due to the Company’s net losses and are excluded in determining
diluted loss per share.
NOTE
3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Recent
Accounting Standards
In
May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts
with Customers. ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive revenue recognition standard that will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition
guidance under current U.S. GAAP and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09
will require that companies recognize revenue based on the value of transferred goods or services as they occur in the contract.
The ASU also will require additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising
from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to
obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early
adoption is permitted only in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods therein. Entities
will be able to transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption.
The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09 on the Company’s financial statements and disclosures.
In
February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to record
a right of use asset and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months.
ASU 2016-02 is effective for all interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted.
A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered
into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients
available. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02 on the Company’s financial statements and
disclosures. The Company anticipates that this will add significant liabilities to the balance sheet.
In
July 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities
from Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down
Round Features; (Part II) Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic
Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception (“ASU 2017-11”). ASU 2017-11
allows companies to exclude a down round feature when determining whether a financial instrument (or embedded conversion feature)
is considered indexed to the entity’s own stock. As a result, financial instruments (or embedded conversion features) with
down round features may no longer be required to be accounted for as derivative liabilities. A company will recognize the value
of a down round feature only when it is triggered, and the strike price has been adjusted downward. For equity-classified freestanding
financial instruments, an entity will treat the value of the effect of the down round as a dividend and a reduction of income
available to common shareholders in computing basic earnings per share. For convertible instruments with embedded conversion features
containing down round provisions, entities will recognize the value of the down round as a beneficial conversion discount to be
amortized to earnings. ASU 2017-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within
those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance in ASU 2017-11 can be applied using a full or modified retrospective
approach. The adoption of ASU 2017-11 is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s financial statement presentation
or disclosures.
Other
recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact
on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

NOTE
5 – NOTE PAYABLE, LESSOR
On
February 12, 2013, the Company entered into a $700,000 Promissory Note Payable Agreement with GGP Limited Partnership (“Lender”)
to be used by the Company for a portion of the construction work to be performed by the Company under the lease by and between
the Company and Glendale II Mall Associates, LLC. The Note Payable accrued interest at a rate of 10% through October 15, 2015,
12% through October 31, 2017, and 15% through October 31, 2023 and matures on October 31, 2023.
On
March 1, 2015, the Company and the lender renegotiated the terms of the Promissory Note and agreed to a new note with a principal
balance due of $683,316. As part of the new agreement, the Lender waived principal and interest payments for two years beginning
March 1, 2015.
On
August 12, 2016 the Company entered into a third amendment on its lease at The Glendale Galleria. The amendment covered several
areas, including adjustment to percentage rent payable, reduced the minimum rent payable, along with the payment and principal
of Promissory Note. The Promissory Note was adjusted to a balance due of $763,261 from $683,316, with no interest, payable in
equal monthly instalments of $5,300 through maturity of Note on May 31, 2028. The Company imputed interest using a discount rate
of 10% to determine a fair value of the note of $443,521, resulting in a valuation discount of $319,740. As of October 1, 2017,
the balance of note payable was $695,968, and unamortized note discount was $273,607, with a net balance due of $422,361.
The
exchange of the notes in fiscal 2016 was treated as a debt extinguishment as the change in terms constituted more than a 10% change
in the fair value of the original note, and the difference between the fair value of the new note and the old note (including
eliminating all remaining unamortized discount) of $220,668 was treated as a gain on debt extinguishment. The Company determined
that since the GGP Promissory Note and the related revision of the lease were agreed to at the same time, that the change in the
lease payment terms and the reduced rent, and the issuance of the new note are directly related. As such the gain on the termination
of the note of $220,668 was deferred, and is being amortized over the remaining life of the lease as an adjustment to rent expense.
The
lender under the Note is GGP Limited Partnership (GGP). GGP is an affiliate of Glendale II Mall Associates, the lessor of the
Company’s Glendale Mall restaurant location. In accordance with the note agreement, an event of default would occur if the
Borrower defaults under the lease between the Company and Glendale II Mall Associates. Upon the occurrence of an event of default,
the entire balance of the Note payable and accrued interest would become due and payable, and the balance due becomes subject
to a default interest rate (which is 5% higher than the defined interest rate). As of October 1, 2017, the Company was delinquent
in its payments to GGP under the note, but has subsequently brought the note current.

Iconic
Holdings, LLC
- On December 21, 2015, the Company issued an 8% unsecured convertible promissory note in favor of Iconic Holdings,
LLC, in the principal sum of $161,250. The note was subject to an original issue discount of $11,250, plus another $11,250 retained
by the lender for fees and costs, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $138,500. The note carried a guaranteed 10% interest
rate per annum, matured on December 21, 2016 and was subject to pre-payment penalties. The note may be converted, in whole or
in part, at any time at the option of the holder into the Registrant’s common stock at a price per share equal to 65% of
the lowest volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock during the 10 consecutive trading days prior to the
date on which Holder elects to convert all or part of the note. The conversion floor price was set at $0.08 per share.
On
July 11, 2016, the Company modified the conversion feature of the Iconic note eliminating the conversion floor. The Company determined
that since the conversion floor had been eliminated, that the Company could no longer determine if it had enough authorized shares
to fulfil the conversion obligation. As such, the Company determined that the conversion feature created a derivative liability
(see Note 9).
During
the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2017, the Company converted the remaining balance of the principal of $81,491 and accrued
interest of $39,741into 38,457,435 shares of common stock at average conversion price $0.00259 per share. Upon extinguishment
of note, the derivative of $118,873 was eliminated.
J&N
Invest LLC
- On August 24, 2015, the Company entered into an unsecured Note Payable Agreement with an investor for which the
Company issued a $50,000 Convertible Note Payable, which accrues interest at a rate of 5% per annum and matured on August 31,
2016. The Lender may also convert all or a portion of the Note Payable at any time into shares of common stock at a price of $0.10
per share. As the market price of the stock on the date of issuance was $0.23, the Company recognized a debt discount at the date
of issuance in the amount of $50,000 related to the fair value of the beneficial conversion feature. The discount was fully amortized
as of January 1, 2017.
NOTE
7 – PROMISSORY NOTE
On
December 18, 2015, the Company issued a six-month unsecured promissory note in the principal sum of $265,000 in favor of St. George
Investments, LLC, pursuant to the terms of a securities purchase agreement of the same date. The Note went into default when the
Company failed to make payment on the due date. Consequently, on July 8, 2016, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement
with St. George Investments, LLC, to replace the original Promissory Note with a new Convertible Promissory Note (“Note”).
The Note carries a Conversion clause that allows the Holder to have a cashless conversion into shares of Common Stock for all
or part of the principal, at a price equal to the average market price for 20 days prior to the conversion. The company determined
that since the conversion floor had no limit to the conversion price, that the company could no longer determine if it had enough
authorized shares to fulfil the conversion obligation. As such, the Company determined that the conversion feature created a derivative
at the date of the modification.
As
of January 1, 2017, the amount due under the promissory note was $193,450. During January and February of 2017. the Holder converted
$48,914 of its debt into 15,660,611 shares of Common Stock with a fair value of $48,914. In addition, the Company paid $7,517
of the principal balance. On March 23, 2017, St. George Investments, LLC (“St. George”) served an arbitration demand
and summons claiming that the Company had breached its obligations under a convertible note by preventing St. George from converting
the remaining balance of the note to common stock. The parties disagreed as to the conversion price set in the note agreement
due to execution by the parties of different versions of the document. St. George claimed for additional damages. The Company
believed these claims lacked merit and the Company retained counsel to vigorously defend this action. Effective May 3, 2017, the
Company counter-sued for full damages for breaching the contract, claiming mistakes, rescission, breach of the covenant of good
faith and fair dealing and unjust enrichment. On August 14, 2017, the Company and St. George entered into a settlement agreement
whereby the Company agreed to deliver 7,900,000 unrestricted free-trading shares to St. George upon signing a final settlement
agreement. The fair value of shares issued was determined to be $553,000 based on the trading price of the shares at the date
of the settlement. The company considered the settlement as a debt extinguishment and accounted for the issuance of the 7,900,000
shares valued at $553,000 offset by the extinguishment of the aggregate face value of the note and accrued interest of $143,740,
and the remaining value of the derivative liability of $222,436, resulting in a loss on extinguishment of $186,818.
As
part of the settlement agreement, St. George agreed to purchase an additional 1,100,000 shares of common stock for a purchase
price of $110,000 at $0.10 per share.
As
of October 1, 2017, all the terms and conditions of the settlement have been completed.
NOTE
8 – BUSINESS LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
In
August 2015, the Company entered into a Business Loan and Security Agreement with American Express Bank, which allows the Company
to borrow up to $174,000. The loan originally matured in August 2016 but will remain in effect for successive one-year periods
unless terminated by either party. The loan is secured by credit card collections from the Company’s store operations. The
agreement provides that the Company will receive an advance of up to $180,000 at the beginning of each fiscal month, and requires
the Company to repay the loan from the credit card deposits it receives from its customers. Assuming the balance has been paid
off by the end of the month, the Company will receive another advance up to the face amount of the note at the beginning of the
next fiscal month.
The
loan requires a loan fee of 0.5% of the outstanding balance as of each disbursement date. At October 1, 2017 and January 1, 2017,
$424 and $136,629 was outstanding and is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheets.
NOTE
9 - DERIVATIVE LIABILITY
Under
authoritative guidance used by the FASB on determining whether an instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s
own stock, instruments which do not have fixed settlement provisions are deemed to be derivative instruments. The Company has
issued certain convertible notes whose conversion price is based on a future market price. However, since the number of shares
to be issued is not explicitly limited, the Company is unable to conclude that enough authorized and unissued shares are available
to share settle the conversion option. The result is that the conversion option is classified as a liability and bifurcated from
the debt host and accounted for as a derivative liability in accordance with ASC 815 and will be re-measured at the end of every
reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations.
The
fair value of the derivative liability related to the St. George note was determined to be $238,538 at January 1, 2017. During
2017, and through April 2, 2017, the Company settled principal balance amounting to $48,914. As a result, the Company extinguished
the fair value of the corresponding derivative liability of $66,731 prior to conversion as a gain on settlement. At April 2, 2017,
the Company determined the FV of the remaining DL to be $222,346. After the conversions through April 2, 2017, the Company and
St. George had a dispute as to ultimate settlement of this obligation. During the period, the Company and St. George agreed to
settle the outstanding amount of convertible notes due for the issuance of 7,900,000 shares of common stock at which time the
fair value of derivative was determined to be $222,346. As a result, the Company recorded a cost of $50,629 to account for the
change in fair value up to the date of extinguishment.
The
settlement was accounted for as a debt extinguishment. As such, given that the debt was extinguished, the extinguishment of the
remaining derivative liability of $222,346 was included in the calculation of loss on debt extinguishment.
The
fair value of the derivative liability related to the Iconic note was determined to be $118,873 at January 1, 2017. In January
2017, the lender converted all outstanding principal and interest due him in exchange for 38,457,435 shares of common stock. As
a result, the Company extinguished the recorded derivative liability of $118,873 and recorded as a gain on extinguishment.

On
May 17, 2016, GIGL entered into a Strategic Alliance Agreement with Kiddo, Inc., a Florida corporation (“consultant”)
whereby consultant will provide marketing and branding services as well as introductions to potential strategic partners and investors.
As consideration for consultant’s services pursuant to the Strategic Alliance Agreement, GIGL agreed to issue to consultant
a warrant to purchase up to 4,400,000 shares of GIGL’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.075 per share, which warrant
vests in increments based upon the achievement of certain milestones. As of January 1, 2017, 440,000 of these warrants with a
fair value of $31,000 were deemed have been achieved and are included in the table of outstanding warrants above. At October 1,
2017, the achievement of the corresponding milestones for the remaining warrants to acquire 3,960,000 has been determined to be
remote or undeterminable, as such, the warrants have not been included as outstanding in the table above.
During
the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2017, the Company entered into agreements to issue warrants to acquire 5,150,000 shares
of common stock for celebrity services to promote the Company’s business. The warrants were fully vested upon issuance,
expire 5 years from the date of issuance, and 5,000,000 of the warrants are exercisable at $0.10 per share and 150,000 of the
warrants are exercisable at $0.20 per share. The total fair value of these warrants at grant date was $531,000 using the Black-Scholes
Option Pricing model with the following assumptions: life of 5 years; risk free interest rate of 1.73%; volatility of 350% and
dividend yield of 0%.
NOTE
11 – LEASES
The
Company currently leases its restaurant locations. The Company evaluates teach lease to determine its appropriate classification
as an operating or capital lease for financial reporting purposes.
Minimum
base rent for the Company’s operating leases, which generally have escalating rentals over the term of the lease, is recorded
on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The initial rent term includes the build-out, or rent holiday period, for the Company’s
leases, where no rent payments are typically due under the terms of the lease. Deferred rent liabilities are recorded to the extent
it exceeds minimum base rent per the lease agreement. Rent expense for the Company’s restaurant operating leases was $84,773
and $98,405 for the thirteen weeks ended October 1, 2017 and September 25, 2016, respectively, and $255,738 and $488,700 for the
thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2017 and September 25, 2016, respectively.
The
Company disburses cash for leasehold improvements and furniture, fixtures and equipment to build out and equip its leased premises.
The Company also expends cash for structural additions that it makes to leased premises of which $506,271 and $475,000 were initially
reimbursed Topanga and Glendale by its landlords, respectively, as construction contributions pursuant to agreed-upon terms in
the lease agreements. Landlord construction contributions usually take the form of up-front cash. Depending on the specifics of
the leased space and the lease agreement, amounts paid for structural components are recorded during the construction period as
leasehold improvements or the landlord construction contributions are recorded as an incentive from lessor.
On
August 12, 2016, the Company entered into a third amendment on its lease at The Glendale Galleria. The amendment covered several
areas, including adjustment to percentage rent payable, reduced the minimum rent payable and payment and principal of the Promissory
Note payable to GGP which resulted in an aggregate gain of $455,287 which has been deferred, and will be amortized on the straight-line
basis over the remaining life of the lease as an adjustment to rent expense. During the year ended January 1, 2017, $26,172 of
the deferred gain was amortized and offset to rent expense, resulting in a remaining deferred gain balance of $429,115 as of January
1, 2017. During the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2017, an additional adjustment of outstanding rent of $37,937 was added
to the deferred gain and will be amortized on the straight-line basis. During the thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2017, $48,594
of the deferred gain was amortized and offset to rent expense, resulting in a remaining deferred gain balance of $418,456 as of
October 1, 2017.
The
balance of the incentive from lessor as of October 1, 2017 and January 1, 2017, were $675,826 and $740,428, and included deferred
rent of $129,841 and $117,056, respectively. As of October 1, 2017, $98,450 of the incentive from lessor was current and $577,376
was long term. Amortization of the incentive from lessor was $22,059 and $18,495 for the thirteen weeks ended October 1, 2017
and September 25, 2016, respectively, and $64,602 and $80,148 for thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2017 and September 25, 2016,
respectively.

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the
Board of Directors
Giggles
N’ Hugs, Inc.
Los Angeles,
California
We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Giggles N’ Hugs, Inc. and subsidiaries as of January 1, 2017
and December 27, 2015 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the
fiscal periods then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control
over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing
audit procedures that we considered appropriate under the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit
includes examining on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion
In
our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of Giggles N’ Hugs, Inc. and subsidiaries as of January 1, 2017 and December 27, 2015, and the results of their operations
and their cash flows for the fiscal periods then ended, in conformity with generally accepted in the United States of America.
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has experienced recurring operating losses and negative
operating cash flows, and has a stockholders’ deficit as of January 1, 2017. These conditions raise substantial doubt about
the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described
in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that
might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE
1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization
Giggles
N Hugs, Inc. (“GIGL Inc.”) was originally organized on September 17, 2004 (Date of Inception) under the laws of the
State of Nevada, as Teacher’s Pet, Inc. GIGL Inc. was organized to sell teaching supplies and learning tools. On August
20, 2010, GIGL Inc. filed an amendment to its articles of incorporation to change its name to Giggles N Hugs, Inc. The Company
is authorized to issue 1,125,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock.
The
Company adopted a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Sunday closest to December 31st for financial reporting purposes. Fiscal
year 2016 consists of a year ending January 1, 2017. Fiscal year 2015 consists of a year ending December 27, 2015.
Going
Concern
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization
of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements, during the year ended January 1, 2017, the Company incurred a net loss of $1,386,955 used cash
in operations of $518,526 and had a stockholders’ deficit of $2,093,025 as of that date. These factors raise substantial
doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements
are issued. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional
funds and implement its business plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the
Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
The
Company has and will continue to use significant capital to grow and acquire market share At January 1, 2017, the Company had
cash on hand in the amount of $144,520. Management estimates that the current funds on hand will be sufficient to continue operations
through May 2017. Management continues to seek additional funds, primarily through the issuance of debt and equity securities
for cash to operate our business. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that
it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain
undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for our stock holders, in case
or equity financing.
Principles
of consolidation
For
the years ended January 1, 2017 and December 27, 2015, the consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Giggles N
Hugs, Inc., GNH, Inc., GNH CC, Inc. for restaurant operations in Westfield Mall in Century City, California, GNH Topanga, Inc.

Use
of estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates
and assumptions used by management include estimates made for impairment analysis for fixed assets and other long term assets,
estimates of potential liabilities and, assumptions made in valuing derivative liabilities and the valuation of issuance of debt
and equity securities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Concentration
of Credit Risk
The
Company has no significant off-balance-sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts
or other foreign hedging arrangements. The Company maintains the majority of its cash balances with financial institutions, in
the form of demand deposits. The Company believes that no significant concentration of credit risk exists with respect to these
cash balances because of its assessment of the creditworthiness and financial viability of these two financial institutions.
Fair
value of financial instruments
The
Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial
instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to
measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value
measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37
establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three
(3) broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs.
The
three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:
Level
1: Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
Level
2: Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable
as of the reporting date.
Level
3: Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data.
The
carrying amount of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, inventory, prepaid
expenses, and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair value due to their short term nature. The carrying
values financing obligations approximate their fair values due to the fact that the interest rates on these obligations are based
on prevailing market interest rates.

Income
taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of ASC 740 “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires a
company to first determine whether it is more likely than not (which is defined as a likelihood of more than fifty percent) that
a tax position will be sustained based on its technical merits as of the reporting date, assuming that taxing authorities will
examine the position and have full knowledge of all relevant information. A tax position that meets this more likely than not
threshold is then measured and recognized at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely to be realized
upon effective settlement with a taxing authority.
Deferred
income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences related to temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and
liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for tax purposes at each year end, based on enacted tax laws
and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. A valuation
allowance is recognized when, based on the weight of all available evidence, it is considered more likely than not that all, or
some portion, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company evaluates its valuation allowance requirements based
on projected future operations. When circumstances change and cause a change in management’s judgment about the recoverability
of deferred tax assets, the impact of the change on the valuation is reflected in current income. Income tax expense is the sum
of current income tax plus the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Cash
and cash equivalents
For
the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are
considered to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of these investments approximates fair value.
Inventories
Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost or market on a first-in, first-out basis and consist of restaurant food and other supplies.
Property
and equipment
The
Company records all property and equipment at cost less accumulated depreciation. Improvements are capitalized while repairs and
maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful
life of the assets or the lease term, whichever is shorter. Leasehold improvements include the cost of the Company’s internal
development and construction department. Depreciation periods are as follows:
Leasehold
improvements
|
10
years
|
Restaurant
fixtures and equipment
|
10
years
|
Computer
software and equipment
|
3
to 5 years
|
Management
assesses the carrying value of property and equipment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value
may not be recoverable. If there is indication of impairment, management prepares an estimate of future cash flows expected to
result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If these cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset,
an impairment loss is recognized to write down the asset to its estimated fair value. For the year ended December 27, 2015 the
Company took a loss on impairment of $353,414. For the year ended January 1, 2017, there were no indications of further impairment
based on management’s assessment of these assets.

Leases
The
Company currently leases its restaurant locations. The Company evaluates the lease to determine its appropriate classification
as an operating or capital lease for financial reporting purposes. The Company currently has two leases, which are classified
as operating leases.
Minimum
base rent for the Company’s operating leases, which generally have escalating rentals over the term of the lease, is recorded
on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The initial rent term includes the build-out, or rent holiday period, for the Company’s
leases, where no rent payments are typically due under the terms of the lease. Deferred rent expense, which is based on a percentage
of revenue, is also recorded to the extent it exceeds minimum base rent per the lease agreement.
The
Company disburses cash for leasehold improvements and furniture, fixtures and equipment to build out and equip its leased premises.
The Company also expends cash for structural additions that it makes to its leased premises, which are reimbursed to the Company
by its landlords, as construction contributions pursuant to agreed-upon terms in the lease agreements. Landlord construction contributions
usually take the form of up-front cash. Depending on the specifics of the leased space and the lease agreement, amounts paid for
structural components are recorded during the construction period as leasehold improvements or the landlord construction contributions
are recorded as an incentive from lessor.

Stock-based
compensation
The
Company periodically issues stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for
services and for financing costs. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to employees based
on the authoritative guidance provided by the Financial Accounting Standards Board whereas the value of the award is measured
on the date of grant and recognized over the vesting period. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and
vesting to non-employees in accordance with the authoritative guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) whereas
the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance
commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. Non-employee
stock-based compensation charges generally are amortized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. In certain circumstances
where there are no future performance requirements by the non-employee, option grants are immediately vested and the total stock-based
compensation charge is recorded in the period of the measurement date.
The
fair value of the Company’s stock option and warrant grants is estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing model, which
uses certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life of the stock options or warrants,
and future dividends. Compensation expense is recorded based upon the value derived from the Black-Scholes Option Pricing model,
and based on actual experience. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes Option Pricing model could materially affect compensation
expense recorded in future periods.
The
Company also issues restricted shares of its common stock for share-based compensation programs to employees and non-employees.
The Company measures the compensation cost with respect to restricted shares to employees based upon the estimated fair value
at the date of the grant, and is recognized as expense over the period, which an employee is required to provide services in exchange
for the award. For non-employees, the Company measures the compensation cost with respect to restricted shares based upon the
estimated fair value at measurement date which is either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the
date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete.
Loss
per common share
Net
loss per share is provided in accordance with ASC Subtopic 260-10. We present basic loss per share (“EPS”) and diluted
EPS on the face of statements of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing reported losses by the weighted average shares
outstanding. Except where the result would be anti-dilutive to income from continuing operations, diluted earnings per share has
been computed assuming the conversion of the convertible long-term debt and the elimination of the related interest expense, and
the exercise of stock options and warrants. Loss per common share has been computed using the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the year. For the years ended January 1, 2017 and December 27, 2015, the assumed conversion of convertible
note payable and the exercise of warrants to acquire shares of common stock were 606,500 shares and 166,500 shares, respectively,
and the employee stock options to acquire 115,000 shares are anti-dilutive due to the Company’s net losses and are excluded
in determining diluted loss per share.

Revenue
recognition
Our
revenues consist of sales from our restaurant operations and sales of memberships entitling members unlimited access to our play
areas for the duration of their membership. As a general principle, revenue is recognized when the following criteria are met:
(i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred and services have been rendered, (iii) the price
to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.
With
respect to memberships, access to our play area extends throughout the term of membership. The vast majority of memberships sold
are for one month terms. Revenue is recognized on a straight line basis over the membership period. The company receives payment
from its customers at the start of the subscription period and the company records deferred revenue for the unearned portion of
the subscription period.
Revenues
from restaurant sales are recognized when payment is tendered at the point of sale. Revenues are presented net of sales taxes.
The obligation is included in other accrued expenses until the taxes are remitted to the appropriate taxing authorities.
We
recognize a liability upon the sale of our gift cards and recognize revenue when these gift cards are redeemed in our restaurants.
As of January 1, 2017 and December 27, 2015, the amount of gift cards sales were $172 and $4,448, respectively, and were recorded
as deferred revenue.
For
party rental agreements, we rely upon a signed contract with the customer as the persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement.
Party rental deposits are recorded as deferred revenue upon receipt and recognized as revenue when the service has been rendered.
Additionally,
revenues are recognized net of any discounts, returns, allowances and sales incentives, including coupon redemptions and complimentary
meals.
Advertising
costs
Advertising
costs are expensed as incurred. During the fiscal years ended January 1, 2017 and December 27, 2015, there were $30,308 and $29,946,
respectively in advertising costs included in general and administrative expenses.
Derivative
Financial Instruments
The
Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify
as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument
is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported
in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments
should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities
are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument
could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
Convertible
Debentures
If
the conversion features of conventional convertible debt provide for a rate of conversion that is below market value, this feature
is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”). A BCF is recorded by the Company as a debt discount pursuant
to ASC Topic 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options.” In those circumstances, the convertible debt is recorded
net of the discount related to the BCF and the Company amortizes the discount to interest expense over the life of the debt on
the effective interest method.

Recent
Accounting Standards
In
May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts
with Customers. ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive revenue recognition standard that will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition
guidance under current U.S. GAAP and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09
will require that companies recognize revenue based on the value of transferred goods or services as they occur in the contract.
The ASU also will require additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising
from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to
obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early
adoption is permitted only in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods therein. Entities
will be able to transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption.
The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09 on the Company’s financial statements and disclosures.
In
June 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-12, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718). The pronouncement
was issued to clarify the accounting for share-based payments when the terms of an award provide that a performance target could
be achieved after the requisite service period. The pronouncement is effective for reporting periods beginning after December
15, 2015. The adoption of ASU 2014-12 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial
position or results of operations.
In
February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to record
a right of use asset and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months.
ASU 2016-02 is effective for all interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted.
A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered
into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients
available. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02 on the Company’s financial statements and
disclosures. The Company anticipates that this will add significant liabilities to the balance sheet.
Other
recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact
on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

4 – NOTE PAYABLE LESSOR
On
February 12, 2013, the Company entered into a $700,000 Promissory Note Payable Agreement with GGP Limited Partnership (“Lender”)
to be used by the Company for a portion of the construction work to be performed by the Company under the lease by and between
the Company and Glendale II Mall Associates, LLC. The Note Payable accrued interest at a rate of 10% through October 15, 2015,
12% through October 31, 2017, and 15% through October 31, 2023 and matures on October 31, 2023.
On
March 1, 2015, the Company and the lender renegotiated the terms of the Promissory Note and agreed to a new note with a principal
balance due of $683,316. As part of the new agreement, the Lender waived principal and interest payments for two years beginning
March 1, 2015. Thereafter, principal and interest will be paid in equal monthly installments of $12,707, within increasing interest
rates. As of June 26, 2016 and December 27, 2015, the principal balance due under the note was $683,316.
Due
to the two-year interest free period, the Company recalculated the fair value of the note taking into account the payment stream
and the incremental changes in the interest rate and determined the fair value of the new note on the date of modification of
March 1, 2015 to be $619,377, net of a discount of $63,939. The Company determined that the discount should be amortized over
the two year period where no interest was due or payable. As such, the Company amortized $28,845 of the discount during the fiscal
year ended December 27, 2015, resulting in an unamortized balance of $35,094 at December 27, 2015. The Company further amortized
$15,985 of the discount during 2016. The unamortized discount at June 26, 2016 was $19,109, and the net balance due was $664,207.
On
August 12, 2016, the Company entered into a third amendment on its lease at The Glendale Galleria. The amendment covered several
areas, including adjustment to percentage rent payable, reduced the minimum rent payable, along with the payment and principal
of Promissory Note. The Promissory Note was adjusted to a balance due of $763,262 from $683,316, with zero percent interest, payable
in equal monthly installments of $5,300 through maturity of Note on May 31, 2028. The Company imputed interest using a
discount rate of 10% to determine a fair value of the note of $433,521, resulting in a valuation discount of $329,740. As of January
1, 2017, the balance of the note payable was $723,270, and the unamortized note discount was $290,553, resulting in a balance
due of $432,717, of which, $21,544 was reported as part of current liabilities and $411,173 as long-term liabilities in the accompanying
balance sheets.
The
exchange of the notes was treated as a debt extinguishment as the change in terms constituted more than a 10% change in the fair
value of the original note, and the difference between the fair value of the new note and the old note (including eliminating
all remaining unamortized discount) of $220,668 was treated as a gain on debt extinguishment. The Company determined that since
the GGP Promissory Note and the related revision of the lease (see Note 10) were agreed to at the same time, that the change in
the lease payment terms and the reduced rent, and the issuance of the new note are directly related. As such the gain on the termination
of the note of $220,668 is being deferred and amortized on the straight line basis over the remaining life of the lease as an
adjustment to rent expense.
The
lender under the Note is GGP Limited Partnership (GGP). GGP is an affiliate of Glendale II Mall Associates, the lessor of the
Company’s Glendale Mall restaurant location. In accordance with the note agreement, an event of default would occur if the
Borrower defaults under the lease between the Company and Glendale II Mall Associates. Upon the occurrence of an event of default,
the entire balance of the Note payable and accrued interest would become due and payable, and the balance due becomes subject
to a default interest rate (which is 5% higher than the defined interest rate). Landlord shall have the unconditional right to
terminate the Lease by giving Tenant at least 120 days’ advance written notice of Landlord’s election to terminate
the Lease, under lease amendment in the event of default. As of January 1, 2017, the Company was current in its rental obligation.

Iconic
Holdings, LLC
- On December 21, 2015, Giggle N Hugs, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Registrant”), issued an
8% unsecured convertible promissory note in favor of Iconic Holdings, LLC, in the principal sum of $161,250. The note was subject
to an original issue discount of $11,250, plus another $11,250 retained by the lender for fees and costs, resulting in net proceeds
to the company of $138,500. The note carries a guaranteed 10% interest rate, matures on December 21, 2016 and is subject to pre-payment
penalties. The note may be converted, in whole or in part, at any time at the option of the holder into the Registrant’s
common stock at a price per share equal to 65% of the lowest volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock
during the 10 consecutive trading days prior to the date on which Holder elects to convert all or part of the note. The conversion
floor price was set at $0.08 per share. The note also contains a make-good provision requiring the Registrant to make a payment
to the holder in the event the Registrant’s trading price at the time the conversion notice is submitted is below $0.11.
Any shares issued upon conversion of the note shall have piggyback registration rights and failure to do so could result in damages
up to 30% of the principal sum of the note, but not less than $20,000. The note contains various default provisions including
a requirement for the Company to maintain a prescribed closing bid price for a certain number of days, and a continued listing
in a principal market.
The
Company determined that the ability of the holder to convert the note to common shares at 65% of the market created a beneficial
conversion feature upon issuance. The Company also considered if the conversion feature required liability accounting under current
accounting guidelines but determined that the conversion of the shares were indexed to the Company’s stock, and that the
floor of $0.08 per share would not allow the conversion to exceed the Company’s authorized share limit. Based on the current
market price on the date of issuance of the note of $0.13 and the discount of 65%, the Company calculated an initial beneficial
conversion feature of $86,827. The total note discount was $109,327 including the $22,500 discussed above, of which $107,691 was
unamortized at December 27, 2015. The Company amortized the remaining discount during the year ended January 1, 2017.
On
July 11, 2016, the Company modified the conversion feature of the Iconic note eliminating the conversion floor. The Company determined
that since the conversion floor had been eliminated, that the company could no longer determine if it had enough authorized shares
to fulfill the conversion obligation. As such, the Company determined that the conversion feature created a derivative
with a fair value of $79,376 at the date of the modification, and the value of such conversion feature should be considered a

5 – CONVERTIBLE NOTE PAYABLE (CONTINUED)
J&N
Invest LLC
- On August 24, 2015, the Company entered into an unsecured Note Payable Agreement with an investor for which the
Company issued a $50,000 Convertible Note Payable, which accrues interest at a rate of 5% per annum and matures on August 31,
2016. The Lender may also convert all or a portion of the Note Payable at any time into shares of common stock at a price of $0.10
per share. As the market price of the stock on the date of issuance was $0.23, the Company recognized a debt discount at the date
of issuance in the amount of $50,000 related to the fair value of the conversion feature. The discount will be amortized over
the life of the note. The balance of the unamortized note discount was $32,181 at December 27, 2015 The Company amortized the
remaining discount to interest expense during the year ending January 1, 2017.
NOTE
6 – PROMISSORY NOTE
On
December 18, 2015, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in the principal sum of $265,000 in favor of St. George Investments,
LLC, pursuant to the terms of a securities purchase agreement of the same date. The note was subject to an original issue discount
of $60,000 and a $5,000 fee to cover certain expenses of lender. The note matured in six months and carries no interest unless
there is an event of default. GNH may prepay the note in full within 90 days of the issuance date for $235,000. The Company has
accounted for the discount as a contra account to the note and will be amortized to interest expense over the life of the note.
As such, the Company amortized $4,694 of the discount during the year ended December 27, 2015. The balance of the note outstanding
at December 27, 2015, was $265,000 net of an unamortized discount of $60,306.
The
Note went into default when the Company failed to make payment on the due date. Consequently, on July 8, 2016, The Company entered
into an Exchange Agreement with St. George Investments, LLC, to replace the original Promissory with a new Promissory Note (“Note”)
carrying the following terms and conditions:
1.
|
The
new Note added 10% ($26,500) to the original principal as an Exchange Fee, making the new principal amount $291,500, and the
Note shall carry an interest rate of 8% per annum. The amount of the exchange fee was recognized as a finance cost.
|
|
|
2.
|
The
Note carries a Conversion clause that allows the Holder to have a cashless conversion into shares of Common Stock for all
or part of the principal, at a price equal to the average market price for 20 days prior to the conversion.
|
|
|
3.
|
In
conjunction with the conversion provision, the Company agreed to an Irrevocable Letter of Instructions to Transfer Agent,
along with a Secretary’s Certificate and Board Resolution, which allows a Share Reserve equal to three times the number
of shares of Common Stock divided by outstanding debt by the defined conversion price, but not less than 18,000,000 shares.
|
|
|
4.
|
In
addition, the Company executed a Share Issuance Resolution Authorizing the Issuance of New Shares of Common Stock. This document,
in effect, allows the Holder to provide, at their discretion, a Conversion Notice directly to the Transfer Agent to receive
unrestricted shares under the terms of this Exchange Agreement.
|
|
|
5.
|
Further
to this Exchange Agreement, the Company executed an Authorization to Initiate ACH Debit Entries that allowed the Holder to
receive a daily payment of $312.50 ($7,500 per month). The Company can cancel such authorization with five days’ written
notice.

NOTE
6 – PROMISSORY NOTE (CONTINUED)
The
Company determined that since the conversion floor had no limit to the conversion price, that the Company could no longer determine
if it had enough authorized shares to fulfill the conversion obligation. As such, the Company determined that the conversion
feature created a derivative with a fair value of $98,544 at the date of the modification, and the value of such conversion feature
should be considered a finance cost.
During
the fiscal year ended January 1, 2017, the Holder converted $81,300 of debt into 9,261,973 shares of Common Stock. In addition,
the Company paid $20,841 of the principal balance. The balance outstanding as of January 1, 2017 was $183,359 plus $9,981 of accrued
interest, and is past its maturity date of September 15, 2016.
Subsequent
to January 1, 2017, additional balance of $48,914 was converted to approximately 15.7 million shares of common stock pursuant
to the terms of the note (See Note 10 and 12). The Balance as of this filling was $132,000 and is being disputed (See Legal Proceedings).
NOTE
7 – BUSINESS LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
In
August 2015, the Company entered into a Business Loan and Security Agreement with American Express Bank, which allows the Company
to borrow up to $174,000. The loan matures in August 2016 and will remain in effect for successive one year periods unless terminated
by either party. In August 2016, the loan amount was amended up to $180,000. The loan is secured by credit card collections from
the Company’s store operations. The agreement provides that the Company will receive an advance of up to $180,000 at the
beginning of each fiscal month, and requires the Company to repay the loan from the credit card deposits it receives from its
customers. Assuming the balance has been paid off by the end of the month, the Company will receive another advance up to the
face amount of the note at the beginning of the next fiscal month.
The
loan requires a loan fee of 0.5% of the outstanding balance as of each disbursement date. At January 1, 2017, the advance for
the month of December 2016 was $136,629 and is included in accounts payable on the accompanying balance sheet.

NOTE
8 - DERIVATIVE LIABILITY
Under
authoritative guidance used by the FASB on determining whether an instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s
own stock, instruments which do not have fixed settlement provisions are deemed to be derivative instruments. The Company has
issued certain convertible notes whose conversion price is based on a future market price. However, since the number of shares
to be issued is not explicitly limited, the Company is unable to conclude that enough authorized and unissued shares are available
to share settle the conversion option. The result is that the conversion option is classified as a liability and bifurcated from
the debt host and accounted for as a derivative liability in accordance with ASC 815 and will be re-measured at the end of every
reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations.
As
of January 1, 2017, and upon issuance, the derivative liabilities were valued using a probability weighted average Black-Scholes-Merton
pricing model with the following assumptions:

The
risk-free interest rate was based on rates established by the Federal Reserve Bank. The Company uses the historical volatility
of its common stock to estimate the future volatility for its common stock. The expected life of the conversion feature of the
notes was based on the remaining term of the notes, or an estimate of until such notes would be converted. The expected dividend
yield was based on the fact that the Company has not customarily paid dividends in the past and does not expect to pay dividends
in the future.
During
the fiscal year ended January 1, 2017, convertible notes and accrued interest totaling $158,359 were converted into shares of
common stock or paid off in cash, and the Company recorded a gain of $190,370 related to the extinguishment of the corresponding
derivative liabilities. Also during the fiscal year ended January 1, 2017, the Company recorded a change in fair value of derivatives
of $369,861. At January 1, 2017, the balance of the derivative liabilities was $357,411.

10 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Westfield
Century City
. On January 13, 2010, the Company entered into a 10-year lease agreement with Westfield
Century City for a lease for a restaurant operation. In October 2015, Westfield Group, the landlord of the Century City location,
embarked on a massive $700 million renovation of the mall. In March 2016 they approached the Company about recapturing its Century
City space due to this remodeling. Currently, approximately 90% of the mall is closed or being remodeled with the completion expected
sometime during 2017. On May 13, 2016, Giggles N’ Hugs, Inc. entered into a Termination of Lease Agreement with Century
City Mall, LLC (“landlord”), accelerating the termination date of the Lease dated January 13, 2010 for its store located
in Westfield Century City, Los Angeles, California. Pursuant to the agreement, the lease was terminated in June, 2016 and the
landlord agreed to a monetary reimbursement of $350,000, which was received on June 26, 2016. For accounting purposes, the Company
has removed all the leasehold improvements (net of accumulated amortization) and removed the deferred incentive due the lessor
relating to tenant improvements and the remaining deferred rent existing at the date of termination resulting in a gain of $214,111.
Westfield
Topanga
. During the year ended December 31, 2012, GNH Topanga entered into a Lease Agreement with Westfield Topanga Owner,
LP, a Delaware limited partnership, to lease approximately 5,900 square feet in the Westfield Topanga Shopping Center. The lease
includes land and building shells, provides a construction reimbursement allowance of up to $475,000, requires contingent rent
above the minimum base rent payments based on a percentage of sales ranging from 7% to 10% and require other expenses incidental
to the use of the property. The lease also has a renewal option, which GNH Topanga may exercise in the future. The Company’s
current lease provides early termination rights, permitting the Company and its landlord to mutually terminate the lease prior
to expiration if the Company does not achieve specified sales levels in certain years. The lease commenced on March 23, 2013 and
expires on April 30, 2022.
Glendale
Mall Associates
. On April 1, 2013, the Company entered into a Lease Agreement with GLENDALE II MALL ASSOCIATES, LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company, to lease approximately 6,000 square feet in the Glendale Galleria in the City of Glendale, County of
Los Angeles, and State of California. The lease includes land and building shells, provides a construction reimbursement allowance
of up to $475,000, requires contingent rent above the minimum base rent payments based on a percentage of sales ranging from 4%
to 7% and require other expenses incidental to the use of the property. The lease commenced on November 21, 2013 and expires on
October 31, 2023.
On
August 12, 2016 the Company entered into a third amendment on its lease at The Glendale Galleria. The amendment covered several
areas, including adjustment to percentage rent payable, reduced the minimum rent payable and payment and principal of the Promissory
Note payable to GGP. The Promissory Note was adjusted to a balance due of $763,262 from $683,316, with zero percent interest,
payable in equal monthly installments of $5,300 through maturity of Note on May 31, 2028, creating a gain on extinguishment
of the old note of $220,686. (see Note 6). The change in the payment terms of the lease caused a change in the previously calculated
deferred rent of $69,614. For reporting purposes, the Company determined that since the GGP Promissory Note and the related revision
of the lease were agreed to at the same time, that the change in the lease payment terms and the reduced rent, and the issuance
of the new note are directly related. In addition, past due rent of $164,987 was forgiven. As such the gain on the termination
of the note of $220,686, the adjustment to the deferred rent in the aggregate amount of $69,614, and the forgiveness of past due
rent of $164,987, resulting in an aggregate gain of $455,287 had been deferred, and will amortized on the straight-line basis
over the remaining life of the lease as an adjustment to rent expense. During the year ended January 1, 2017, $26,172 of the deferred
gain was amortized and offset to rent expense, resulting in a remaining deferred gain balance of $429,115 as of January 1, 2017,
which will be amortized over the remainder of the lease.
Rent
expense for the Company’s restaurant operating leases for the year ended January 1, 2017 and December 27, 2015 was $514,275
and $629,783, respectively.

On
March 23, 2017, St. George Investments, LLC ("St. George") served an arbitration demand and summons claiming that the
Company had breached its obligations under a convertible note by preventing St. George from converting the remaining balance of
the note to common stock. The parties disagree as to the conversion price set in the note agreement due to execution by the parties
of different versions of the document. St. George has claimed for additional damages. We believe these claims lack merit
and have retained counsel to vigorously defend this action and present cross claims for mistake, rescission, breach
of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing and unjust enrichment.

was effectuated on December 30, 2011. Instead, its earnings and losses are allocated to and reported on the individual returns
of the member’s tax returns. Accordingly, no provision for income tax is included in the consolidated financial statements.
For
the fiscal years ended January 1, 2017 and December 27, 2015 GNH, Inc. incurred net operating losses and, accordingly, no provision
for income taxes has been recorded. In addition, no benefit for income taxes has been recorded due to the uncertainty of the realization
of any tax assets. At January 1, 2017 the Company had $7,859,000 of federal and state net operating losses. The net operating
loss carryforwards, if not utilized, will begin to expire in 2023.
Deferred
tax liabilities and assets are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial
statement or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between
financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences
are expected to reverse

NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE
11 – INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)
The
Company has provided a valuation reserve against the full amount of the net deferred tax assets, because in the opinion of management,
it is more likely than not that these tax assets will not be realized.
The
Company’s NOL and tax credit carryovers may be significantly limited under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). NOL and tax
credit carryovers are limited under Section 382 when there is a significant “ownership change” as defined in the IRC.
During the fiscal year January 1, 2017 and in prior years, the Company may have experienced such ownership changes, which could
impose such limitations.
The
limitation imposed by the IRC would place an annual limitation on the amount of NOL and tax credit carryovers that can be utilized.
When the Company completes the necessary studies, the amount of NOL carryovers available may be reduced significantly. However,
since the valuation allowance fully reserves for all available carryovers, the effect of the reduction would be offset by a reduction
in the valuation allowance.
The
Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and the State of Nevada.

14. INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
Nevada
Revised Statutes (NRS) Sections 78.7502 and 78.751 provide us with the power to indemnify any of our directors, officers, employees
and agents. The person entitled to indemnification must have conducted himself in good faith, and must reasonably believe that
his conduct was in, or not opposed to, our best interests. In a criminal action, the director, officer, employee or agent must
not have had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.
Under
NRS Section 78.751, advances for expenses may be made by agreement if the director or officer affirms in writing that he has met
the standards for indemnification and will personally repay the expenses if it is determined that such officer or director did
not meet those standards.
Our
Articles of Incorporation, provide a limitation of liability such that no director or officer of the Company shall be personally
liable to the Company or any of its stockholders for damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer or for any
act or omission of any such director or officer; however, the foregoing provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of
a director or officer for (a) acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law, or
(b) the payment of dividends in violation of NRS Section 78.300.
Our
By-Laws state that we shall indemnify every (i) present or former director or officer of us, (ii) any person who while serving
in any of the capacities referred to in clause (i) served at our request as a director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor,
trustee, employee, agent or similar functionary of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust,
employee benefit plan or other enterprise, and (iii) any person nominated or designated by (or pursuant to authority granted by)
the Board of Directors or any committee thereof to serve in any of the capacities referred to in clauses (i) or (ii), each an
Indemnitee.
Our
By-Laws provide that we shall indemnify an Indemnitee against all judgments, penalties (including excise and similar taxes), fines,
amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses actually incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with any proceeding in which
he was, is or is threatened to be named as defendant or respondent, or in which he was or is a witness without being named a defendant
or respondent, by reason, in whole or in part, of his serving or having served, or having been nominated or designated to serve,
if it is determined that the Indemnitee (a) conducted himself in good faith, (b) reasonably believed, in the case of conduct in
his official capacity, that his conduct was in our best interests and, in all other cases, that his conduct was at least not opposed
to our best interests, and (c) in the case of any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was
unlawful; provided, however, that in the event that an Indemnitee is found liable to us or is found liable on the basis that personal
benefit was improperly received by the Indemnitee, the indemnification (i) is limited to reasonable expenses actually incurred
by the Indemnitee in connection with the proceeding and (ii) shall not be made in respect of any proceeding in which the Indemnitee
shall have been found liable for willful or intentional misconduct in the performance of his duty to us.
Other
than in the limited situation described above, our By-Laws provide that no indemnification shall be made in respect to any proceeding
in which such Indemnitee has been (a) found liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received by him, whether
or not the benefit resulted from an action taken in the Indemnitee’s official capacity, or (b) found liable to us. The termination
of any proceeding by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or on a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, is not of itself
determinative that the Indemnitee did not meet the requirements set forth in clauses (a) or (b) above. An Indemnitee shall be
deemed to have been found liable in respect of any claim, issue or matter only after the Indemnitee shall have been so adjudged
by a court of competent jurisdiction after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom. Reasonable expenses shall, include, without limitation,
all court costs and all fees and disbursements of attorneys for the Indemnitee. The indemnification provided shall be applicable
whether or not negligence or gross negligence of the Indemnitee is alleged or proven.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers or persons controlling
us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification
is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

|
To
include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”);
|
|
|
|
|
(ii)
|
To
reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information
set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered
(if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low
or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant
to Rule 424(b) (§ 230.424(b) of this chapter) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more
than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table
in the effective registration statement.
|
|
|
|
|
(iii)
|
To
include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement
or any material change to such information in the registration statement;
|
provided,
however,
that
(1)
|
Paragraphs

by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to section

by reference in the registration statement.
|
|
|
(2)
|
That,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that
time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
|
|
|
(3)
|
To
remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold
at the termination of the offering.
|
|
|
(5)
|
That,
for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:
|
If
the registrant is subject to Rule 430C (§230.430C of this chapter), each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part
of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses
filed in reliance on Rule 430A (§230.430A of this chapter), shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration
statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness.
Provided, however,
that no statement made in a registration
statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by
reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with
a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement
or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first
use.
(6)
|
That,
for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution
of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant
pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser,
if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant
will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
|
|
(i)
|
Any
preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant
to Rule 424 (§230.424 of this chapter);
|
|
|
|
|
(ii)
|
Any
free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred
to by the undersigned registrant;
|
|
|
|
|
(iii)
|
The
portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned
registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
|
|
|
|
|
(iv)
|
Any
other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
|
The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing
of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable,
each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated
by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to supplement the prospectus, after the expiration of the subscription period, to set
forth the results of the subscription offer, the transactions by the underwriters during the subscription period, the amount of
unsubscribed securities to be purchased by the underwriters, and the terms of any subsequent reoffering thereof. If any public
offering by the underwriters is to be made on terms differing from those set forth on the cover page of the prospectus, a post-effective
amendment will be filed to set forth the terms of such offering.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons
of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding)
is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant
will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed
by the final adjudication of such issue.
The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
(1)
|
For
purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed
as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant
pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement
as of the time it was declared effective.
|
|
|
(2)
|
For
the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus
shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
