NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Alpha Investment Inc, formerly GoGo Baby, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated on February 22, 2013 under the laws of the State of Delaware to develop, create, manufacture and market, toys for small children which would be designed to attach to car seats and amuse and entertain children during a drive, without distracting the attention of the driver. The Company, however, encountered significant constraints in raising sufficient capital to fully implement its business plan.
On March 17, 2017, Omega Commercial Finance Corp. (Omega) purchased all 35,550,000 outstanding restricted shares of the Companys common stock (the Control Share Sale) from Malcolm Hargrave (35,000,000 shares), DTH International Corporation (500,000 shares) and Lisa Foster (50,000 shares) for aggregate consideration of $295,000. The Control Share Sale was consummated in a private transaction pursuant to a common stock purchase agreement entered between Omega and Mr. Hargrave, acting individually and on behalf of the other selling stockholders. Upon completion of the Control Share Sale, a Change in Control of the Company took place and the Company became a subsidiary of Omega. The Company did not elect to apply push-down accounting. In connection therewith, Mr. Hargrave resigned as the Companys sole director and officer and Omega, as the new majority stockholder of the Company, elected Timothy R. Fussell, Ph.D. as President, Chairman of the Board and a director and Todd C. Buxton, Omegas Chief Executive Officer, as Chief Executive Officer, Vice Chairman of the Board and a director.
In addition to the foregoing, new management elected to shift the focus of the Companys business to real estate and other commercial lending, which they believed offered better opportunities for shareholder growth. In connection therewith, on March 30, 2017, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State changing its name from Gogo Baby, Inc. to Alpha Investment Inc. to better reflect the new business focus. The name change and a corresponding change in the Companys OTC markets trading symbol from GGBY to ALPC received approval from FINRA and became effective as of April 19, 2017.
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements are prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which we considered as necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future periods or the full year.
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 certain 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 periods presented. The Company is required to make judgments and estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the useful life and recoverability of long-lived assets, deferred income tax asset valuations and loss contingences. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Although, we believe our judgments and estimates are appropriate, actual future results may be different; if
different
assumptions or conditions were to prevail, the results could be materially different from our reported results.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of acquisition. As of March 31, 2018, the Company had no cash equivalents.
Restricted Cash Held in Escrow
The Company has $2,500,000 of restricted cash held in escrow from the sale of commons stock to an investor that has the right to require the Company to repurchase the common stock for $2,500,000 through May 15, 2018.
7
Loans Receivable, net
The Company records its investments in loans receivable at cost less unamortized costs of issuance and deferred origination fees. Origination fees collected at the time of investment are recorded against the loans receivable and amortized into net interest income over the lives of the related loans. Issuance costs incurred are capitalized along with the initial investment and amortized against net interest income over the lives of the related loans.
When a loan receivable is placed on non-accrual status, the related interest receivable is reversed against interest income of the current period. If a non-accrual loan is returned to accrual status, the accrued interest existing at the date the residential loan is placed on non-accrual status and interest during the non-accrual period are recorded as interest income as of the date the loan no longer meets the non-accrual criteria. As of March 31, 2018, since all loans receivable are considered performing according to their payment terms, no accounts receivable aging schedule or credit quality indicators are necessary.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses on its investments in real estate loans for estimated credit impairment. Managements estimate of losses is based on a number of factors including the types and dollar amounts of loans in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrowers ability to repay, prevailing economic conditions and the underlying collateral securing the loan. Additions to the allowance are provided through a charge to earnings and are based on an assessment of certain factors, which may indicate estimated losses on the loans. Actual losses on loans are recorded first as a reduction to the allowance for loan losses. Generally, subsequent recoveries of amounts previously charged off are recognized as income.
Estimating allowances for loan losses requires significant judgment about the underlying collateral, including liquidation value, condition of the collateral, competency and cooperation of the related borrower and specific legal issues that affect loan collections or taking possession of the property on an individual loan receivable basis. Management determined that no allowance for loan losses was necessary as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Equipment and fixtures will be depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated asset lives, 5 years.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for its income taxes in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) No. 740, "Income Taxes". Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax balances. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantially enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of enactment or substantive enactment.
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
The Company applies the provisions of ASC Topic 740-10-25, Income Taxes Overall Recognition (ASC Topic 740-10-25) with respect to the accounting for uncertainty of income tax positions. ASC Topic 740-10-25 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a companys financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740-10-25 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As December 31, 2017, tax years since 2013 remain open for IRS audit. The Company has received no notice of audit from the Internal Revenue Service for any of the open tax years.
Revenue Recognition and Investment Income
Origination fees collected at the time of investment are recorded against the loans receivable and amortized into net interest income over the lives of the related loans. Issuance costs incurred are capitalized along with the initial investment and amortized against net interest income over the lives of the related loans. The Company records interest income in accordance with ASC subtopic 835-30 "Imputation of Interest", using the effective interest method.
8
When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, the related interest receivable is reversed against interest income of the current period. If a non-accrual loan is returned to accrual status, the accrued interest existing at the date the residential loan is placed on non-accrual status and interest during the non-accrual period are recorded as interest income as of the date the loan no longer meets the non-accrual criteria.
The Company suspends recognizing interest income when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all payments according to the contractual terms of the underlying agreements. Management considers all information available in assessing collectability. Collectability is measured on a receivable-by-receivable basis by either the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the effective rate, the observable market price for the receivable or the fair value of the collateral if the receivable is collateral dependent. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous receivables, such as pre-settlement funding transactions, are collectively assessed for collectability. A receivable is charged off when in the Company's judgment, the receivable or portion of the receivable is considered uncollectible.
Payments received on past due receivables and finance receivables the Company has suspended recognizing interest income on are applied first to principal and then to accrued interest. Interest income on past due receivables and finance receivables, if received, is recorded using the cash basis method of accounting. Additionally, the Company generally does not resume recognition of interest income once it has been suspended.
Fair Value
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash, accounts payable and notes payable approximate their estimated fair market value based on the short-term maturity of this instrument. The carrying value of the Companys loans receivable approximate fair value because their terms approximate market rates.
Net Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year. Dilutive loss per share reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the losses of the Company. Common stock warrants to purchase 350,000 shares of common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2018, because their impact was anti-dilutive. There were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2017.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and loans receivable. The Company maintains its cash in bank and financial institution deposits that at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts through December 31, 2017. 100% of the Companys loans receivables are with related parties.
Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Recent accounting pronouncements that the Company has adopted or that will be required to adopt in the future are summarized below.
On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2014-09
Revenue From Contracts with Customers
, which did not have a significant impact on its results of operations.
The Company's revenue is mainly derived from interest income on our investments in our loan receivable portfolio, which are not impacted by this standard.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01,
Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825- 10), Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
. The provisions of the update require equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. However, an entity may choose to measure equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values at cost minus impairment. The update also simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment. It also eliminates the requirement to disclose the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost for entities that are not public business entities, and eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet. ASU No. 2016-01 requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. It also requires an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. The update requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by category and form on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements. In addition, the update clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entitys other deferred tax assets. For an emerging growth company, the amendments in the update
9
are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Companys financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,
Leases (Topic 842), Conforming Amendments Related to Leases
. This ASU amends the codification regarding leases in order to increase transparency and comparability. The ASU requires companies to recognize lease assets and liabilities on the statement of condition and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. A lessee would recognize a liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the leased asset for the lease term. For an emerging growth company, the amendments in the update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material effect on the Companys financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13,
Financial Instruments Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments
. The amendments introduce an impairment model that is based on expected credit losses (ECL), rather than incurred losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments (ex. loans and held to maturity securities), including certain off-balance sheet financial instruments (ex. commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit that are not unconditionally cancellable). The ECL should consider historical information, current information, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of prepayments, over the contractual term. An entity must use judgment in determining the relevant information and estimation methods that are appropriate in its circumstances. Financial instruments with similar risk characteristics may be grouped together when estimating the ECL. The ASU also amends the current available for sale security impairment model for debt securities whereby credit losses relating to available for sale debt securities should be recorded through an allowance for credit losses. For an emerging growth company, the amendments in the update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The amendments will be applied through a modified retrospective approach, resulting in a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. The Company is currently planning for the implementation of this accounting standard. It is too early to assess the impact this guidance will have on the Companys financial statements.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15,
Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments
. The amendments in this ASU clarify the proper classification for certain cash receipts and cash payments, including clarification on debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims, and proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, including bank-owned life insurance policies, among others. For an emerging growth company, the amendments in the update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently assessing the amendment and does not anticipate it will have a material impact on the Companys Financial Statements.
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 5 GOING CONCERN
Future issuances of the Companys equity or debt securities will be required in order for the Company to continue to finance its operations and continue as a going concern. The Companys present revenues are insufficient to meet operating expenses. The financial statements of the Company have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $1,629,940 as of March 31, 2018 and requires capital for its contemplated operational and marketing activities to take place. The Company's ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of common stock is unknown. Securing additional financing, the successful development of the Company's contemplated plan of operations, and its transition, ultimately, to the attainment of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.

NOTE 7 STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY
Incentive Plan
The Companys Incentive Plan provides for equity incentives to be granted to its employees, executive officers or directors or to key advisers or consultants. Equity incentives may be in the form of stock options with an exercise price not less than the fair market value of the underlying Shares as determined pursuant to the Incentive Plan, restricted stock awards, other stock-based awards, or any combination of the foregoing. The Incentive Plan is administered by the board of directors. 5,000,000 Shares are reserved for issuance pursuant to the exercise of awards under the Incentive Plan. The number of shares so reserved automatically adjusts upward on January 1 of each year, so that the number of shares covered by the Incentive Plan is equal to 15% of our issued and outstanding common stock. As of March 31, 2018, there are 1,375,000 shares available for issuance under the plan and no options outstanding.
Common Stock
On September 20, 2017, 166,667 shares of common stock were issued at a value of $15.00 per share to one company in exchange for cash of $2,500,000. Pursuant to the subscription agreement the investor had the right to require the Company to repurchase the shares for $2.5 million at any time through December 2017. Accordingly, the amounts received are presented as a temporary equity as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. In December 2017, the Company negotiated and amended its agreement with the investor to extend this right through May 15, 2018. As part of this extension, the investor was granted warrants to purchase 170,000 shares of common stock for an exercise price of $15.00 per share over a five-year term. Because the shares are classified as a temporary equity, and the investors rights to require repurchase of the shares initially expired in 2017 the Company recorded the fair value of these warrants were recorded as a discount against the proceeds to be amortized as interest expense through February 2018, the initial extension date. In March 2018, the Company entered into a third amendment to the subscription agreement, extending the option period to May 15, 2018. The option was further extended in May 2018. See Note 8. As consideration for the extension, the Companys parent company, Omega Commercial Finance Corporation, agreed to issue to the investor, 32,500 shares of its Series Z preferred stock, and the Company agreed to reimburse the investor for $21,894 of legal fees incurred related to the extension. The Company estimated the fair value of the Series Z preferred stock based on recent sales for cash, and recorded an additional discount of $103,144, including the accrued legal fees, against the common stock to be amortized into interest expense through the extended expiration of the option in May 2018. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company amortized $929,108 of the discounts. The cash, as of March 31, 2018, is held in an escrow account and the shares are carried at $2,401,245, net of unamortized discount of $98,755.
Preferred Stock
In November 2017, the Companys board of directors designated 100,000 authorized shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (Series A). Each share of Series A has a par value of $15.00 and have no voting or dividend rights. Upon liquidation, dissolution or wining up, the holders of Series A shares are entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company, if any, ratably with the common stock holders. Each share of Series A is convertible within one year of issuance into two shares of common stock of the Company. At any time after 180 days of issuance, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to redeem all, but not less than all, of the outstanding Series A shares by paying cash, common stock, or a a combination of both an amount equal to the par value of the Series A shares. On the one-year anniversary of issuance, the Company has an obligation to redeem the Series A shares for an amount equal to the par value of the Series A shares.
During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company sold 1,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock for cash proceeds of $15,000. Because of the redemption obligation after one year, absent an election by the holders to convert, the Company has reflected the redemption amount as temporary equity in the accompanying balance sheet.
Capital Contributions
During the three months ended March 31, 2018, Omega Commercial Finance Corp made a cash contribution to the company of $5,000. This was classified as capital contribution and recorded in additional paid-in capital.
Common Stock Warrants
As of March 31, 2018, there are warrants outstanding to purchase 520,000 shares for an exercise price of $15.00 over five years.

NOTE 8 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In May 2018, the Company and the holder of 1,666,667 shares of common stock subject to an option granted to the holder through May 15, 2018, to have the Company repurchase such shares for $2.5 million as described in Note 7 above, agreed to extend the expiration of such option until June 29, 2018, for no additional consideration.
