VIVA ENTERTAINMENT GROUP INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

As of and For the Nine Months Ended July 31, 2019 and 2018

  

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Description of Business and History

 

The Company was incorporated on October 26, 2009 in the State of Nevada. The Company originally engaged in the development of a website and also the design and development of a catalogue to sell over the counter and prescription medications, and supplements. In 2012, the Company undertook a change in focus to the natural resources sector where it was engaged in the acquisition and exploration of base metals and mineral mining properties.

 

On April 5, 2016, the Company completed the purchase of Viva Entertainment Group, Inc. (“Viva Entertainment”), a Delaware corporation, from EMS Find, Inc. (“EMS”) pursuant to a stock purchase agreement. Viva Entertainment’s Chief Executive Officer, Johnny Falcones, was appointed as the Company’s sole director, President and Chief Executive Officer to manage the development and marketing of Viva Entertainment’s over the top (IPTV/OTT) application for connected TV’s, desktop computers, tablets, and smart phones.

 

Pursuant to the stock purchase agreement, the Company and EMS agreed to transfer control of Viva Entertainment to the Company through the purchase of all outstanding shares of stock of Viva Entertainment by the Company in exchange for the issuance to EMS of a 10% promissory note in the principal amount of $100,000, due six months from the Closing (the “EMS Note”), and the issuance of 22,000,000 shares of common stock to Johnny Falcones. For accounting purposes, the transaction was treated as a reverse merger since the acquired entity now forms the basis for operations and the transaction resulted in a change in control, with the acquired company electing to become the successor issuer for reporting purposes. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared to reflect the assets, liabilities and operations of Viva Entertainment Group, Inc. exclusive of Black River Petroleum since all predecessor operations were discontinued. As part of the transaction, stock payable and amounts due to former officers were forgiven, with the balances recorded as Contributed Capital. For equity purposes, additional paid-in capital and retained deficit shown are those of Viva, exclusive of Black River Petroleum. Viva had no operations prior to the quarter ended April 30, 2016.

 

In management’s opinion, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the presented periods have been made.  All adjustments made were of a normal recurring nature.

 

Viva Entertainment Group Inc. (F/K/A Black River Petroleum Corp.) (the “Company”) develops and markets Viva Entertainment’s over the top (IPTV/OTT) application for connected TV’s, desktop computers, tablets, and smart phones. The Company is based in Briarwood, New York.

 

Going Concern

 

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next fiscal year.  Realization value may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.  As of July 31, 2019, the Company has a working capital deficiency and has an accumulated deficit of $31,440,797.  The continuation of Viva Entertainment Group as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations.  These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim information Regulation S-K. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of a normal and recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2018.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net revenue and expenses in the reporting period. We regularly evaluate our estimates and assumptions related to the useful life and recoverability of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. We base our estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by us may differ materially and adversely from our estimates. To the extent there are material differences between our estimates and the actual results, our future results of operations will be affected.

 

Loss Per Common Share

 

The Company reports net loss per share in accordance with provisions of the FASB.  The provisions require dual presentation of basic and diluted loss per share. Basic net loss per share excludes the impact of common stock equivalents. Diluted net loss per share utilizes the average market price per share when applying the treasury stock method in determining common stock equivalents. As of July 31, 2019 and 2018, there were no dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Pursuant to ASC No. 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, the Company is required to estimate the fair value of all financial instruments included on its balance sheet as of July 31, 2019 and October 31, 2018. The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and derivative liabilities.  The Company considers the carrying value of such amounts in the financial statements to approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

 

6

 

 

The Company adopted ASC No. 820-10 (ASC 820-10), Fair Value Measurements.  ASC 820-10 relates to financial assets and financial liabilities.ASC 820-10 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The provisions of this standard apply to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and are to be applied prospectively with limited exceptions.

 

ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. This standard is now the single source in GAAP for the definition of fair value, except for the fair value of leased property as defined in SFAS 13. ASC 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions, about market participant assumptions, that are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820-10 are described below:

 

Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
     
Level 2 Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
     
Level 3 Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. These inputs rely on management’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. (The unobservable inputs are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances and July include the Company’s own data.)

 

The following presents the Company’s fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of July 31, 2019 and October 31, 2018:

 

July 31, 2019:

    Level 1     Level 2     Level 3     Total  
Convertible Notes Payable, net of discount   $ 1,122,560     $ -     $ -     $ 1,122,560  
Derivative Liability     3,050,601                       3,050,601  
Total   $ 4,173,161     $ -     $ -     $ 4,173,161  

 

October 31, 2018: 

    Level 1     Level2     Level 3     Total  
Convertible Notes Payable, net of discount   $ 931,056     $     $     $ 931,056  
Derivative Liability     2,878,931                       2,878,931  
Total   $ 3,809,987     $     $     $ 3,809,987

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

Fair value accounting requires bifurcation of embedded derivative instruments such as conversion features in convertible debt or equity instruments, and measurement of their fair value for accounting purposes. In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. In assessing the convertible debt instruments, management determines if the convertible debt host instrument is conventional convertible debt and further if there is a beneficial conversion feature requiring measurement. If the instrument is not considered conventional convertible debt, the Company will continue its evaluation process of these instruments as derivative financial instruments.

 

Once determined, derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each reporting period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as an adjustment to fair value of derivatives.

Overview

 

Viva Entertainment Group Inc. (the “Company”) develops and markets Viva Entertainment’s over the top (IPTV/OTT) application for connected TV’s, desktop computers, tablets, and smart phones. The Company is based in Briarwood, New York.

 

Internet Protocol Television (IPTV/OTT) is a system through which television services are delivered using the Internet protocol suite over a network such as the Internet, instead of being delivered through traditional terrestrial, satellite signal, and cable television formats.

 

IPTV services may be classified into three main groups: 1) Live television, with or without interactivity related to the current TV show; 2) Time-shifted television: catch-up TV (replays a TV show that was broadcast hours or days ago), start over TV (replays the current TV show from its beginning); 3) Video On Demand (VOD): browse a catalog of videos, not related to TV programming.

A Content Delivery Network (CDN) is an interconnected system of computers on the Internet that provides Web content rapidly to numerous users by duplicating the content on multiple servers and directing the content to users based on proximity. CDNs are used by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to deliver static or dynamic Web pages but the technology is especially well suited to streaming audio, video, and Internet Television (IPTV) programming Over-The-Top (OTT) content, describes broadband delivery of video and audio without a multiple system operator being involved in the control or distribution of the content itself. Consumers can access OTT content through internet-connected devices such as PCs, laptops, tablets, smart phones including iPhones and Droid phones, set-top boxes, Smart TVs and gaming consoles. 

 

During the year ended October 31, 2018, the Company has completed the interface redesign as part of the revenue sharing and service agreement with FlixFling, LLC, allowing subscribers access to the FlixFling catalogue through the VIVA portal starting at 11am today. The Company signed a five-year agreement with FlixFling which provides for a share of 20% of sales by the Company of FlixFling subscriptions and 30% from video-on-demand downloads sold through the Company. The agreement also provides for the Company and FlixFling to work together to promote and market the product and also develop an integrated user experience between the two services.

 

Johnny Falcones, Chief Executive Officer of the Company has spent six months since signing the revenue share agreement with FlixFling in December 2017, working together to develop a seamless and integrated platform so that the Company’s customers can access one of the best streaming services in the industry for the latest movies and music videos on demand.

 

From the beginning, the Company’s goal has been to create an affordable solution giving our customers access to the broadest possible range of meaningful content. FlixFling’s platform of movies-on-demand combined with music video channels makes the Company one of the best OTT providers on the market. The redesigned app will allow customers to easily access both Company and FlixFling content without having to switch between apps. It is just one more way in which the Company is setting itself apart from the rest of the OTT community.

 

Philadelphia-based FlixFling offers over 15,000 movies and television shows across all genres in an OTT format. Their unique service gives customers a choice between video-on-demand and monthly subscription services. They are currently the only streaming service to offer both movies and music to customers at one low price and the only service to offer streaming music video channels.

 

In addition, the Company announces that it has entered into a partnership with Comcast, Communications Management LLC d/b/a Comcast Technologies Solutions Inc. The partnership began January 2019.

 

The Company and its Vivalivetv system will begin working on content, logistical and other technology services provided solely by Comcast Communications Management. This partnership will help enhance our subscriber base in order to create more revenue. A joint press release will be available by both parties in early 2019.

 

On June 24, 2019, the Company signed an agreement with Kudu Creative Agency, SAS contracting them to redesign the vivalivetv.com website. The site will consist of new features with new look and feel tailored to the evolving nature of OTT content delivery and services. These changes represent an effort to give new and existing subscribers the ultimate television experience. The new vivalivetv website will specifically facilitate the Company’s interface and coordination with new content and advertising partners who are looking to help not only create revenues but integrate services and provide enhanced visibility to their millions of customers already using their products.

Plan of Operation

 

As of July 31, 2019, the Company has a working capital deficiency of $5,422,512 and accumulated deficit of $31,440,797. We had revenues from subscriptions in the amount of $1,020 and $17,175 for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2019, respectively, compared to the revenues of $8,470 and $35,921 during the three and nine months ended July 31, 2018, respectively.

 

Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that our auditors believe there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have not generated any material revenues or profits.

 

We have only four officers and directors. They are responsible for our managerial and organizational structure which will include preparation of disclosure and accounting controls under the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002. When these controls are implemented, they will be responsible for the administration of the controls. Should they not have sufficient experience, they may be incapable of creating and implementing the controls which may cause us to be subject to sanctions and fines by the SEC which ultimately could cause you to lose your investment.

 

Limited Operating History

 

There is no historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. The revenues generated to date was small. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources.

Other Income and Expense

 

Other Income and Expense for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2019 included a change in derivative liabilities of $2,530,627 and $(398,056), respectively, compared to $(1,129,269) and $(1,177,385) during the three and nine months ended July 31, 2018, respectively.  The decrease resulted primarily from a difference in the value of the Company’s common stock between October 31, 2018 and July 31, 2019.  Also included is a loss on settlement of debt in amount of $(177,241) and $(363,970) during the three and nine months ended July 31, 2019, respectively, compared to $(73,336) and $(107,098) for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2018, respectively. The loss on settlement of debt arises from the recalculation of derivative expense when a convertible debt is paid off, sold, or renegotiated.  Interest and derivative expense for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2019 was $(558,778) and $(1,424,390), respectively, compared to $231,060 and $(134,809) for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2018, respectively. Derivative expense includes the difference between the derivative liability recorded at issuance and the amount of recorded debt discount.

 

Net Income/(Loss)

 

We had net income of $1,286,448 and a net loss of $(3,474,072) during the three and nine months ended July 31, 2019, respectively, compared to net loss of $(2,385,583) and $(5,521,029) during the same periods ended July 31, 2018, respectively. The decrease in net loss in 2019 was due primarily to the gain on change in derivative liability as a result of an increase in the value of the Company’s common stock between October 31, 2018 and July 31, 2019.

Inflation

 

We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our results of operations.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources  

 

As of July 31, 2019, we had cash of $13,450 on hand. Current liabilities exceeded current assets by $5,422,512 at July 31, 2019, which included derivative liabilities of $3,050,601, accrued salaries due to officers of $488,928, net convertible debt of $1,122,560, accrued interest of $199,526, and accounts payable and accrued expenses of $589,347. Other long-term assets consisted of capitalized software development costs of $68,553, net of accumulated amortization of $26,159.

 

Net cash provided by operating activities was $670,532 during the nine months ended July 31, 2019, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $375,250 during the same period ended July 31, 2018. The net gain in cash provided by operations during the nine months ended July 31, 2019 was primarily attributable to the decrease in net loss of $2,700,863 offset by non-cash loss from derivative expense of $766,398, change in derivative liabilities of $398,056, and other non-cash expenses including amortization of debt discount of $641,365, loss on debt conversion of $363,970, common stock issued for services of $426,599. Comparatively, net cash used in operations during the nine months ended July 31, 2018 was primarily attributable to net loss of $5,521,029, partially offset by non-cash expense including amortization of debt discount of $632,886, loss on debt conversion of $107,098, changes in derivative liabilities in amount of $818,014 and common stock issued for services of $2,969,412.

 

Cash flow used in investing activities was $15,000 during the nine months ended July 31, 2019. There was no cash flows from investing activities during the nine months ended July 31, 2018.

 

Cash flows provided by financing activities were $698,660 and $378,250 for the nine months ended July 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Positive cash flows from financing activities during the nine months ended July 31, 2019 were due primarily to proceeds of $762,930 from convertible notes, offset by the repayment of $64,270 to related parties’ loan. Comparatively, positive cash flows from financing activities during the nine months ended July 31, 2018 was due to proceeds of $375,550 from convertible notes and proceeds of $12,700 from related parties’ loan.

 

We had revenues from subscriptions in amount of $1,020 and $17,175 for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2019, respectively, compared to the revenues of $8,470 and $35,921 during the three and nine months ended July 31, 2018, respectively, and had four salaried employees including Johnny Falcones, our officer and director. We currently require very limited resources but intend to hire employees and consultants in the latter part of 2019 for the Viva Entertainment operations. In due course, should we require capital for these operations, we will need to raise additional capital. There is no guarantee that we will be able to raise further capital. At present, we have not made any arrangements to raise additional capital but are diligently working on this.

 

If we need additional capital and cannot raise it, we will either have to suspend operations until we do raise the capital or cease operations entirely. Other than as described in this paragraph, we have no other financing plans.

Future Contractual Obligations and Commitment

 

We incur contractual obligations and financial commitments in the normal course of our operations and financing activities. Contractual obligations include future cash payments required under existing contracts, such as debt and lease agreements. These obligations may result from both general financing activities and from commercial arrangements that are directly supported by related operating activities.

 

As of the date of this prospectus, we have no future contractual obligations or commitments.

  

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of the date of this prospectus, we have not entered into any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement with an entity unconsolidated under which it has:

 

  a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to the unconsolidated entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit;

 

  liquidity or market risk support to such entity for such assets;

 

  an obligation, including a contingent obligation, under a contract that would be accounted for as a derivative instrument; or

 

  an obligation, including a contingent obligation, arising out of a variable interest in an unconsolidated entity that is held by, and material to us, where such entity provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support to or engages in leasing, hedging, or research and development services with us.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting”. The standard is intended to simplify several areas of accounting for share-based compensation arrangements, including the income tax impact, classification on the statement of cash flows and forfeitures. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is permitted. The Company elected to early adopt the new guidance in the second quarter of fiscal year 2016 which requires us to reflect any adjustments as of January 1, 2016, the beginning of the annual period that includes the interim period of adoption. The primary impact of adoption was the recognition of additional stock compensation expense and paid-in capital for all periods in fiscal year 2016. Additional amendments to the recognition of excess tax benefits, accounting for income taxes and minimum statutory withholding tax requirements had no impact to retained earnings as of January 1, 2016, where the cumulative effect of these changes is required to be recorded. We have elected to account for forfeitures as they occur to determine the amount of compensation cost to be recognized in each period.

 

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230).” ASU No. 2016-18 requires that restricted cash be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the change in cash flow. This guidance is reflected in these financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which removes the second step of the two-step goodwill impairment test. Under ASU 2017-04, an entity will apply a one-step quantitative test and record the amount of goodwill impairment as the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 does not amend the optional qualitative assessment of goodwill impairment. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019; early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company has not elected early adoption of this standard and is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2017-04 and cannot currently estimate the financial statement impact of adoption.

 

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting.” The amendments in this update provide guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. The guidance will be effective for the Company for its fiscal year 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect this ASU to materially impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

 

Subsequent Events

 

None noted.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

 

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 8 of Regulation S-X, we are not required to provide information required by this Item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act (defined below)). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

 

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting.

 

In addition, our management with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have determined that no change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during or subsequent to the three and six months ended April 30, 2019 that has materially affected, or is (as that term is defined in Rules 13(a)-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise, in the ordinary course of business.

We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.
