All share and per-share information, as well as all financial information, contained in this prospectus has been adjusted to give effect to the one-for-eight (1-for-8) reverse stock split effective March 21, 2022.

Overview of the Company

 

With operations concentrated in India, Southeast Asia and Latin America, we help businesses in emerging markets leverage the “gig” or task economy by providing both technology solutions and a network of workers required to fulfill those tasks. We provide software as a service that enables clients to build and manage a network of contract task workers. This platform can also be used by business clients to manage their employees who are performing services, such as PC repair or food delivery. In addition, our Mimo service operates a network of over 14,000 task workers in India who make deliveries, collect payments, do background verifications, and fulfill tasks across the supply chain, as needed by business clients to deliver their products and services to their respective markets and customers.

 

Our TraQSuite software platform powers the last mile distribution network, allowing business users to target customers, facilitate and validate transactions, track and manage task workers, manage funds and run a distribution network. Key features of the TraQSuite software include:

 

  Last Mile delivery: TraQSuite’s Last-Mile software module enables a business to manage thousands of task workers across multiple geographies to deliver products and services to the users. The software platform, operating through mobile apps, allows for data sharing, delivery validation, geo-tagging and know-your-customer (KYC) requirements and can even measure customer satisfaction.
     
  Transact: TraQSuite enables task workers to facilitate transactions by meeting the end customers. They can collect payments via credit cards, smart-phone swipes, SMS messages or cash. Both banked and unbanked users can buy products and services and pay with their mobile devices.
     
  Target: TraQSuite enables customer transactions to be rewarded with loyalty credits, tokens or points that can be redeemed by the customer for free products, discounts and benefits. The software analyzes these transactions and purchase behaviors by using leading AI models and can deliver real time, automated and targeted offers and recommendations for additional purchases and customer retention.

 

The Mimo delivery and task service in India runs on the TraQSuite platform and performs deliveries and fulfills tasks for some of the largest businesses in India. Mimo provides delivery and pickup services for the banking and insurance industry, performing verifications, field investigations for loan requests, business verification, employment verification, collection of documents and customer data and assistance in filling out forms for banks. Mimo works with microfinance institutions to collect cash, such as loan payments, convert cash to digital forms such as debit cards, and conduct data collection and surveys. For consumer goods companies, Mimo does promotional marketing, last mile (hyper-local) delivery, merchant onboarding or activation, store audits, and route optimization for delivery.

RISK FACTORS

 

Investing in our securities includes a high degree of risk. Prior to making a decision about investing in our securities, you should consider carefully the risk factors discussed below, together with all of the other information contained in this prospectus. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially and adversely affected by these risks.

 

General Risks Relating to Our Business, Operations of Financial Condition

 

We have a limited operating history and are subject to the risks encountered by early-stage companies.

 

Our company has a limited operating history, and you should consider and evaluate our operating prospects in light of the risks and uncertainties frequently encountered by early-stage companies in rapidly evolving markets. For us, these risks include:

 

  risks that we may not have sufficient capital to achieve our growth strategy;
     
  risks that we may not develop our product and service offerings in a manner that enables us to be profitable and meet our customers’ requirements;
     
  risks that our growth strategy may not be successful; and
     
  risks that fluctuations in our operating results will be significant relative to our revenues.

 

These risks are described in more detail below. Our future growth will depend substantially on our ability to address these and the other risks described in this section. If we do not successfully address these risks, we will be unable to sustain our business growth to date and you could lose your investment.

 

Our operating losses and working capital deficiency raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we do not continue as a going concern, investors could lose their entire investment.

 

Our operating losses and working capital deficiency raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We have an accumulated deficit of $8,953,768 as of December 31, 2021. We may never achieve profitability. If we do not generate sufficient revenues, do not achieve profitability and do not have other sources of financing for our business, we may have to curtail or cease our development plans and operations, which could cause investors to lose the entire amount of their investment.

 

If we are unable to integrate our acquisitions or manage the growth of those companies effectively, our business could be adversely affected.

 

Our business has grown mostly through acquisition of other companies, both in the United States and in India. These companies, particularly in India, are currently expanding rapidly. Our future operating results depend to a large extent on our ability to manage this expansion and growth successfully. For us to continue to manage such growth, we must put in place legal and accounting systems, and implement human resource management and other tools. We may be unable to successfully manage this anticipated rapid growth. A failure to manage our growth effectively could materially and adversely affect our business.

 

Increasing competition within our emerging industry could have an impact on our business prospects.

 

The artificial intelligence, mobile payment and “gig” worker markets are emerging industries where new competitors are entering the market frequently. These competing companies may have significantly greater financial and other resources than we have and may have been developing their products and services longer than we have been developing ours, and we may be unable to successfully compete.

Our current and future operations are subject to certain risks that are unique to operating in a foreign country.

 

We currently have international operations in India, Latin America, and Africa, among other places, and have a large concentration of employees and task workers in India. Therefore, we are exposed to risks inherent in international business operations. The risks of doing business in foreign countries include the following:

 

  changing regulatory or taxation policies, including changes in tax policies that have been proposed by the current United States administration that may affect the taxation of foreign earnings;
     
  currency exchange risks;
     
  changes in diplomatic relations or hostility from local populations;
     
  seizure of our property by the government or restrictions on our ability to transfer our property or earnings out of the foreign country;
     
  potential instability of foreign governments, which might result in losses against which we are not insured;
     
  difficulty in protecting our intellectual property from infringement in certain foreign countries; and
     
  difficulty of enforcing agreements and collecting receivables through some foreign legal systems.

 

Exchange rates may cause future losses in our international operations.

 

Because we own assets in foreign countries and derive revenue from our international operations, we may incur currency translation losses due to changes in the values of foreign currencies and in the value of the United States dollar. We cannot predict the effect of exchange rate fluctuations upon future operating results.

 

We may not be able to adequately protect our proprietary technology, and our competitors may be able to offer similar products and services, which would harm our competitive position.

 

Our success depends in part upon our proprietary technology. We rely primarily on national and local statutory and common law rights in the jurisdictions in which we operate, as well as contractual restrictions, to establish and protect our proprietary rights, but to date we have not sought or obtained any patents on our proprietary technology or registered any of our trademarks. Despite the precautions we have taken, third parties could copy or otherwise obtain and use our technology without authorization or develop similar technology independently. The protection of our proprietary rights may be inadequate or our competitors may independently develop similar technology, duplicate our products and services or design around any intellectual property rights we hold.

 

If third parties claim that we infringe their intellectual property, it may result in costly litigation.

 

Third parties may claim our current or future products infringe their intellectual property rights. Any such claims, with or without merit, could cause costly litigation that could consume significant management time. As the number of product and services offerings in the artificial intelligence, mobile payments and task worker markets increases and functionalities increasingly overlap, we may become increasingly subject to infringement claims. Such claims also might require us to enter into royalty or license agreements. If required, we may not be able to enter into such royalty or license agreements or obtain them on terms acceptable to us.

 

Pandemics including COVID-19 may adversely affect our business.

 

The unprecedented events related to COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), have had significant health, economic, and market impacts and may have short-term and long-term adverse effects on our business that we cannot predict as the global pandemic continues to evolve. The extent and effectiveness of responses by governments and other organizations also cannot be predicted. During 2021 and 2020, COVID-19 forced us to suspend Last Mile deliveries and other task worker activities for a period of time, and we shifted some of those activities to a virtual, remote-service model until in-person activities could resume safely. The effects of the pandemic may have a particular effect on our business as a result of our extensive operations in India and other emerging markets, where vaccines are less available. While we continue to have the option to shift to virtual activities if necessary, it is unclear whether and to what extent future impacts of COVID-19 or other pandemics will have an adverse effect on our profitability and growth strategy.

 

7

 

 

We may need additional financing. Any limitation on our ability to obtain such additional financing could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

We may need to raise additional capital, which we may be unable to obtain on favorable or reasonable terms, or at all. If we raise additional capital, it could result in dilution to our stockholders. Any limitation on our ability to obtain additional capital as and when needed could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

If we fail to maintain proper and effective internal controls, our ability to produce accurate and timely financial statements could be impaired, which could harm our operating results, our ability to operate our business and investors’ views of us.

 

Ensuring that we have adequate internal financial and accounting controls and procedures in place so that we can produce accurate financial statements on a timely basis is a costly and time-consuming effort. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires public companies to conduct an annual review and evaluation of their internal controls. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of December 31, 2021, and our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of December 31, 2021. Our failure to maintain the effectiveness of our internal controls in accordance with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have a material adverse effect on our business. We could lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, which could have an adverse effect on the price of our common stock. In addition, if our efforts to comply with new or changed laws, regulations, and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to practice, regulatory authorities may initiate legal proceedings against us and our business may be harmed.

 

Our revenue is currently concentrated in a small number of customers.

 

Although our strategy is to expand our business operations and customer base through our 2021 acquisitions of Rohuma and Mimo, most of our revenue has come historically from a few customers. For the year ended December 31, 2021, we had two major customers comprising 50% of our revenues, and at December 31, 2021 and five customers represented 93% of our accounts receivable. For the year ended December 31, 2020 and at the end of that year, these customers accounted for 85% of our revenues and our accounts receivable, respectively. A loss of the business from these customers or any difficulty collecting our accounts receivable from them could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Risks Relating to our Common Stock

 

One shareholder controls a majority of the voting power of our common stock, and his interest may conflict with those of investors.

 

Our Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer and President, Ajay Sikka, beneficially owns shares representing a majority of our common stock. He therefore is in a position to exercise substantial influence over the outcome of all matters submitted to a vote of our shareholders, including the election of directors.

Our common stock may cease to be listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market.

 

We have applied to have our common stock listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “TRIQ.” Our application has not yet been approved, and there can be no assurance that it will be approved. If it is approved and our common stock is listed, we may not be able to meet the continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Market, which require, among other things, a minimum closing price of our common stock and a minimum market capitalization. If we are unable to satisfy the requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market for continued listing, our common stock would be subject to delisting from that market, and we might or might not be eligible to list our shares on another Nasdaq market. A delisting of our common stock from the Nasdaq Capital Market, particularly if we did not qualify to be listed on another Nasdaq market, could negatively impact us by, among other things, reducing the liquidity and market price of our common stock.

 

The difficulties associated with any attempt to gain control of our company could adversely affect the price of our common stock.

 

Ajay Sikka has substantial influence over the decision as to whether a change in control will occur for our company. There are also provisions contained in our articles of incorporation, by-laws and California law that could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of TraQiQ. These restrictions and limitations could adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.

 

There is currently not an active liquid trading market for the Company’s common stock.

 

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Markets QB tier under the symbol “TRIQ”. However, there is currently no regular active trading market in our common stock. Although there are periodic volume spikes from time to time, a consistent, active trading market may not develop. Further, in the event this offering is completed, and our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market, there is no assurance an active trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained or that we will remain eligible for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. If an active market for our common stock develops, there is a significant risk that our stock price may fluctuate in the future in response to any of the following factors, some of which are beyond our control:

 

  variations in our quarterly operating results;
     
  announcements that our revenue or income are below analysts’ expectations;
     
  general economic downturns;
     
  sales of large blocks of our common stock; or
     
  announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments.

 

You may experience dilution of your ownership interest due to future issuance of our securities.

 

We are currently authorized to issue 300,000,000 shares of common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. We may issue additional shares of common stock or other securities that are convertible into or exercisable for common stock in future public offerings or private placements for capital raising purposes or for other business purposes, or upon conversion or exercise of outstanding options, warrants, or preferred stock. The future issuance of a substantial amount of common stock, or the perception that such an issuance could occur, could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our common shares. A decline in the price of our common stock could make it more difficult to raise funds through future offerings of our common stock or securities convertible into common stock.

 

Our board of directors may issue and fix the terms of shares of our preferred stock without stockholder approval, which could adversely affect the voting power of holders of our common stock or any change in control of our company.

 

Our articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, with such designation rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the board of directors. Of these authorized shares, 50,000 shares have been designated Series A Preferred Stock but none of them are currently outstanding (see “Description of Capital Stock”). Our board of directors is empowered, without shareholder approval, to create additional series and issue additional shares of preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of our common stock. In the event of such issuances, the preferred stock could be used, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of our company.

We do not expect to pay dividends and investors should not buy our common stock expecting to receive dividends.

 

We do not anticipate that we will declare or pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, you will only realize an economic gain on your investment in our common stock if the price appreciates, which may not occur. You should not purchase our common stock expecting to receive cash dividends. Since we do not pay dividends, and if an active trading market for our shares does not develop, you may not have any manner to liquidate or receive any payment on your investment. Therefore, our failure to pay dividends may cause you to not see any return on your investment even if we are successful in our business operations. In addition, because we do not pay dividends we may have trouble raising additional funds which could affect our ability to expand our business operations.

 

Risks Related to the Offering

 

Investors in this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution in net tangible book value.

 

The public offering price will be substantially higher than the net tangible book value per share of our outstanding shares of common stock. As a result, investors in this offering will incur immediate dilution of $               per share, based on the assumed public offering price of $                 per share of common stock and the closing price of our common stock on                           , 2022. See “Dilution” for a more complete description of how the value of your investment will be diluted upon the completion of this offering.

 

In addition, during 2021 we agreed to issue up to an additional 216,243 shares of common stock without additional consideration to the former owners of Rohuma contingent on the financial performance of Rohuma and issued warrants to the former owners of Mimo for the purchase of up to 170,942 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.008 per share (of which warrants for 145,301 shares are currently earned and warrants for the other 25,641 shares are contingent on the 2022 performance of the Mimo business). If these shares are all issued, investors in this offering will incur additional dilution of $               per share, based on the assumed public offering price of $                    per share of common stock and the closing price of our common stock on                         , 2022.

 

Our common stock is subject to the “penny stock” rules of the SEC and the trading market in the securities is limited, which makes transactions in the stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in the stock.

 

Our common stock is subject to the “penny stock” rules of the SEC because it has historically had a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:

 

  that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks after compliance with various information collection rules and a suitability evaluation;
     
  the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased; and
     
  the broker or dealer deliver a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC.

 

If we are successful in our application to list our stock for trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market and we are able to maintain that listing, our stock will cease to be a penny stock. However, if we cease to obtain and maintain that listing, we may again be subject to the penny stock rules. Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the penny stock rules. In addition, according to the SEC, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. These factors may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our common stock if it were to become subject to the penny stock rules.

We have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this offering and may not use them effectively.

 

Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds of this offering, including for any of the purposes described in the section of this prospectus entitled “Use of Proceeds.” You will be relying on the judgment of our management with regard to the use of these net proceeds, and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the net proceeds are being used appropriately. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could result in financial losses that could have a material adverse effect on our business and cause the price of our securities to decline. Pending the application of these funds, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in a manner that does not produce income or that loses value.

 

Risks Related to Our Reverse Stock Split

 

Although on March 21, 2022 we implemented a 1 for 8 reverse stock split, we cannot assure you that we will be able to continue to comply with the minimum bid price requirement of the Nasdaq Stock Market tier on which we are listed.

 

We cannot assure you that the market price of our common stock following the reverse stock split will remain at the level required for continuing compliance with the minimum bid price for the Nasdaq market tier on which our common stock is listed or the minimum for listing on any other Nasdaq market. It is not uncommon for the market price of a company’s common stock to decline in the period following a reverse stock split. If the market price of our common stock declines following the completion of the reverse stock split, the percentage decline may be greater than would occur in the absence of the reverse stock split. In any event, other factors unrelated to the number of shares of our common stock outstanding, such as negative financial or operational results, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and jeopardize our ability to meet or maintain Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement for its Capital market tier. In addition to specific listing and maintenance standards, Nasdaq has broad discretionary authority over the initial and continued listing of securities, which it could exercise with respect to the listing of our common stock.

 

The reverse stock split may decrease the liquidity of the shares of our common stock.

 

The liquidity of the shares of our common stock may be affected adversely by the reverse stock split given the reduced number of shares that are outstanding following the reverse stock split. In addition, the reverse stock split increased the number of stockholders who own odd lots (less than 100 shares) of our common stock, creating the potential for such stockholders to experience an increase in the cost of selling their shares and greater difficulty effecting such sales.

 

Following the reverse stock split, the resulting market price of our common stock may not attract new investors, including institutional investors, and may not satisfy the investing requirements of those investors. Consequently, the trading liquidity of our common stock may not improve.

 

Although we believe that a higher market price of our common stock may help generate greater or broader investor interest, there can be no assurance that the reverse stock split will result in a share price that will attract new investors, including institutional investors. In addition, there can be no assurance that the market price of our common stock will satisfy the investing requirements of those investors. As a result, the trading liquidity of our common stock may not improve.

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We estimate that the net proceeds from the sale of the common stock in the offering will be approximately $                       , after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses, or approximately $                            if the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full.

 

We currently expect to use the net proceeds of this offering primarily for the following purposes:

 

  Approximately $8,500,000 to fund sales and marketing activities;
  Approximately $4,000,000 for acquisitions of other companies, products or technologies involving software similar to that offered by TraQiQ or task worker services, although we have not currently entered into agreements or letters of intent for any such acquisitions;
  Approximately $2,000,000 to fund engineering activities;
  Approximately $2,000,000 to pay outstanding invoices and to repay approximately $                     in outstanding debt with a weighted average interest rate of            % and maturities ranging from            to            ;
  Approximately $500,000 for working capital; and
  The remainder for other general corporate purposes.

 

We believe that the expected net proceeds from this offering and our existing cash and cash equivalents, together with interest thereon, will be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months, although we cannot assure you that this will occur.

 

The amount and timing of our actual expenditures will depend on numerous factors, including the status of our development efforts, sales and marketing activities and the amount of cash generated or used by our operations. We may find it necessary or advisable to use portions of the proceeds for other purposes, and we will have broad discretion and flexibility in the application of the net proceeds. Pending these uses, we will invest the proceeds in short-term bank deposits.

MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

 

TraQiQ’s common stock is traded on the OTCQB Market under the symbol “TRIQ.” Because the company’s common stock is not listed on a securities exchange and its quotations on OTCQB are limited and sporadic, there is currently no established public trading market for the common stock. TraQiQ has applied to The Nasdaq Capital Market to list its common stock under the symbol “TRIQ”.

 

On March 21, 2022, we completed a 1-for-8 reverse split of our common stock. All share and per share information gives effect, retroactively, to the reverse stock split.

 

As of                    , 2022, there were approximately            registered holders of record of our common stock, and the last reported sale price of our common stock on the OTCQB was $            per share on                , 2022.

 

Any over-the-counter market quotations of our common stock reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.

 

Dividends

 

The company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its common stock. The company currently intends to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the expansion of its business. As a result, the company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

CAPITALIZATION

 

The following table sets forth our consolidated cash and cash equivalents and capitalization as of December 31, 2021. Such information is set forth on the following basis:

 

  an actual basis (giving effect, on a retroactive basis, to a 1-for-8 reverse stock split which was consummated on March 21, 2022);
     
  a pro forma basis to give effect to (i) the conversion of $2,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of related party notes with the CEO (who has agreed to convert this amount into common shares prior to the closing of this offering) into shares of common stock, using a conversion price of 80% of the public offering price, and (iii) an additional $190,640 in debt from financings completed in January and February, 2022; and
     
  a pro forma as adjusted basis, giving effect to the pro forma adjustments above as well as the sale of the shares in this offering at the assumed public offering price of $               per share which was the last reported sale price of our common stock on the OTCQB on                     , 2022, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other estimated offering expenses payable by us.

 

The as adjusted information below is illustrative only and our capitalization following the completion of this offering will be adjusted based on the actual public offering price and other terms of this offering determined at pricing. You should read this table together with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and our audited and unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this prospectus.

 

   As of December 31, 2021 
   Actual   Pro Forma   Pro Forma As Adjusted(1)

DILUTION

 

Our pro forma net tangible book value (deficit) as of December 31, 2021 was approximately $(7,488,327), or $(1.55) per share of common stock based upon 4,821,638 shares of common stock outstanding on that date after giving pro forma effect to the conversion of $2,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of related party notes with the CEO (who has agreed to convert this amount into common shares prior to the closing of this offering) into shares of common stock, using a conversion price of 80% of the public offering price (estimated to be 650,000 shares). Pro forma net tangible book value per share represents the amount of our total pro forma tangible assets reduced by the amount of our total pro forma liabilities, divided by the total number of shares of common stock outstanding on a pro forma basis, after giving effect to the same conversions and issuances.

 

Our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value will be $                    or $        per share. Pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share represents pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value divided by the total number of shares outstanding on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the sale of the shares in this offering at the assumed public offering price of $           per share, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other estimated offering expenses payable by us. This represents an immediate increase in pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value of $          per share to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of $          per share to investors purchasing shares of common stock in this offering at the assumed public offering price.

 

The following table illustrates this dilution on a per share basis to new investors:

 

Assumed public offering price per share      $ 
Pro forma net tangible book value per share as of December 31, 2021  $     
Increase in net tangible book value per share attributable to new investors  $       
Pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share after giving effect to this offering       $ 
Dilution in net tangible book value per share to new investors       $ 

 

The information above is pro forma as of December 31, 2021 and excludes as of such date the following:

 

  outstanding options to purchase an aggregate of 491,250 shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $0.0416 under our equity compensation plan;
     
  228,310 shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants which were issued in connection with the Mann and MIMO acquisitions, of which 202,669 are currently exercisable and 25,641 are contingent upon achievement of 2022 revenue targets;
     
  124,138 shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants which were issued in connection with the September 2021 and October 2021 financing, and 9,931 shares issuable upon exercise of warrants issued to the placement agent as a part of that financing, all at an exercise price of $11.60
     
  216,243 shares issuable in connection with the Rohuma acquisition contingent upon achievement of future revenue targets, and 43,750 shares issuable to a director for services rendered that are accruing over a three-year period;
     
  124,138 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of convertible notes at a conversion price of $11.60 that were issued as a part of the September 2021 and October 2021 financing;
     
                shares of common stock underlying the warrants to be issued to the underwriters in connection with this offering (            shares if the over-allotment is exercised in full); and
     
                shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option.

 

If the underwriters exercise their overallotment option, our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value following the offering will be $            per share, and the dilution to new investors in the offering will be $          per share.

 

A $1.00 increase or decrease in the assumed public offering price per share would increase or decrease our pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value after this offering by approximately $               , and dilution per share to new investors by approximately $                  .

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This prospectus contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements give our current expectations or forecasts of future events. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and include statements regarding, among other things, our projected revenue growth and profitability, our growth strategies and opportunity, anticipated trends in our market and our anticipated needs for working capital. They are generally identifiable by use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plans,” “potential,” “projects,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expects,” “management believes,” “we believe,” “we intend” or the negative of these words or other variations on these words or comparable terminology. These statements may be found under the sections entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Business,” as well as in this prospectus generally. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, prospective products, market acceptance, future performance or results of current and anticipated products, sales efforts, expenses, and the outcome of contingencies such as legal proceedings and financial results.

 

Examples of forward-looking statements in this prospectus include, but are not limited to, our expectations regarding our business strategy, business prospects, operating results, operating expenses, working capital, liquidity and capital expenditure requirements. Important assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements include, among others, assumptions regarding demand for our products, the cost, terms and availability of components, pricing levels, the timing and cost of capital expenditures, competitive conditions and general economic conditions. These statements are based on our management’s expectations, beliefs and assumptions concerning future events affecting us, which in turn are based on currently available information. These assumptions could prove inaccurate. Although we believe that the estimates and projections reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, our expectations may prove to be incorrect.

 

Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results and events anticipated or implied by such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

 

  changes in the market acceptance of our products;
  increased levels of competition;
  changes in political, economic or regulatory conditions generally and in the markets in which we operate;
  our relationships with our key customers;
  our ability to retain and attract senior management and other key employees;
  our ability to quickly and effectively respond to new technological developments;
  our ability to protect our trade secrets or other proprietary rights, operate without infringing upon the proprietary rights of others and prevent others from infringing on our proprietary rights; and
  other risks, including those described in the “Risk Factors” discussion of this prospectus.

 

We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for us to predict all of those risks, nor can we assess the impact of all of those risks on our business or the extent to which any factor may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. The forward-looking statements in this prospectus are based on assumptions management believes are reasonable. However, due to the uncertainties associated with forward-looking statements, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and unless required by law, we expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to publicly update any of them in light of new information, future events, or otherwise.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Registration Statement on Form S-1.

 

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these estimates, judgments and assumptions are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Our financial statements would be affected to the extent there are material differences between these estimates and actual results. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP and does not require management’s judgment in its application. There are also areas in which management’s judgment in selecting any available alternative would not produce a materially different result.

 

Overview

 

TraQiQ was incorporated in the State of California on September 9, 2009 as Thunderclap Entertainment, Inc. On July 14, 2017, Thunderclap Entertainment, Inc. changed its name to TraQiQ, Inc. On July 19, 2017, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with the stockholders of OmniM2M, Inc. (“OmniM2M”) and TraQiQ Solutions, Inc. dba Ci2i Services, Inc. (formerly Ci2i Services, Inc. – amended November 6, 2019) (“Ci2i”) whereby the stockholders of OmniM2M and Ci2i agreed to exchange all of their respective shares, representing 100% ownership in OmniM2M and Ci2i in exchange for 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively. The OmniM2M Shareholders and the Ci2i Shareholders were issued their respective 1,500,000 shares on a pro rata basis based on their respective holdings in OmniM2M and Ci2i in the Share Exchange Agreement. The Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse merger whereas Ci2i is considered the accounting acquirer and TraQiQ, Inc. is considered the accounting acquiree. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements included the accounts of Ci2i for all periods presented and the accounts of TraQiQ, Inc. and OmniM2M, which was acquired by the Company on July 19, 2017 since the date of acquisition. For accounting purposes, the acquisition of OmniM2M is recorded at historical cost in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 805-50-25-2 as this is considered an acquisition of entities under common control as the management of the Company and OmniM2M control the activities of the respective companies. Prior to the merger with Ci2i and acquisition of OmniM2M, the Company was considered a shell company under Rule 12b-2 of Exchange Act. On December 1, 2017, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Ajay Sikka (“Sikka”), the sole shareholder of Transport IQ, Inc. whereby Sikka sold all of the shares in TransportIQ, Inc. (“TransportIQ”) in exchange for $18,109, in the form of cancellation of all of the debt of TransportIQ that was owed to the Company. The transaction became effective upon the execution of the agreement by Sikka and the Company; and Transport IQ, Inc, is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Because TransportIQ was commonly controlled and owned, the transaction was recorded at the historical carrying value of TransportIQ’s assets and liabilities.

 

Ci2i is a services company founded in 1998 that develops and deploys intelligent technologies and products in order to meet the demand for sustainable, integrated solutions. Ci2i’s primary focus has been in the analytics and intelligence segments. The Company is investing significantly in building products in the area of supply chain and last mile delivery.

 

On May 16, 2019, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with TRAQIQ Solutions Private Limited (TraQ Pvt Ltd), formerly known as Mann-India Technologies Pvt Ltd. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the shares of TRAQ Pvt Ltd. and assumed certain net liabilities in exchange for warrants exercisable over five-years to purchase up to 166,159 shares of common stock of the Company valued at $268 at an exercise price of $0.0008. The warrants are exercisable as follows: (i) 12,596 warrants immediately upon closing; (ii) 107,494 warrants exercisable one-year after the date of closing; and (iii) 46,069 warrants exercisable two-years after the date of closing. This transaction is being recorded as a business combination under ASC 805.

 

17

 

 

The warrants that are exercisable in one-year and two-years were conditioned upon TRAQ Pvt Ltd. achieving certain revenue figures and pre-tax profit percentages. For the warrants to become exercisable, TRAQ Pvt Ltd. was required to achieve target revenue of $1.1 million and pre-tax profit of 25% in 2019 and 2020, respectively, with the amount of such warrants becoming exercisable reduced proportionally to the extent TRAQ Pvt Ltd. failed to achieve these targets. A total of 52,391 of these warrants were cancelled effective May 16, 2021 as a result of these criteria not being achieved. There were 56,400 of these warrants exercised during 2021 and 57,368 warrants remain outstanding as of December 31, 2021.

 

Effective December 31, 2020, Ci2i acquired the net assets of OmniM2M and TransportIQ, and then dissolved those entities in January 2021. The value of those transactions were for the assumed liabilities of Omni and TransportIQ, and no cash was exchanged.

 

On January 22, 2021, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Rohuma, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Rohuma”) and its members, whereby the Rohuma members agreed to exchange all of their respective membership interests in Rohuma in exchange for up to 536,528 shares of common stock, of which the first tranche of 320,285 shares was issued upon closing on March 1, 2021, with the remaining value reflected as contingent consideration until the shares vest at which time they will be issued. The Company issued _____ shares for the second tranche as a result of satisfying the revenue requirement for 2021, and the remaining            shares would be issued upon satisfying the revenue requirement for 2022. The Company, as of March 31, 2022, determined that the criteria for vesting of the second tranche of shares were satisfied.

 

The transaction was valued at $3,433,776 ($6.40 per share). Rohuma has an Indian affiliate that is owned 99% by Rohuma and 1% by its founding member. Rohuma controls this entity and the 1% ownership by the member is now less than 1% upon acquisition by the Company. This amount is reflected as a non-controlling interest.

On February 17, 2021, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Mimo Technologies Private Ltd., an Indian corporation (“Mimo”), and its shareholders, whereby the Mimo shareholders exchanged all of their respective shares in Mimo for warrants to purchase up to 170,942 shares of the Company’s common stock. Of these warrants, 145,301 were earned through March 31, 2022, with the remaining 25,641 warrants to be earned subject to Mimo meeting certain revenue goals for 2022. The Company, as of March 31, 2022, determined that the criteria for vesting of the second tranche of warrants were satisfied.. The warrants have a term of three years and an exercise price of $0.008 and value in the amount of $1,640,447, of which $1,394,380 is reflected in additional paid in capital, with the remaining $246,067 reflected as contingent consideration as of March 31, 2022. In addition to the issuance of the warrants, TRAQ Pvt Ltd, wrote off $258,736 in amounts due from a note receivable, $123,778 in accounts receivable and $40,354 in a debenture from Mimo. In addition, the Company made a cash payment to one of the minority shareholders of Mimo in the amount of $22,338. The Company acquired over 99% of Mimo with the remaining percentage of less than 1% reflected as a non-controlling interest.

 

Mimo provides delivery and task worker solutions across India.

Going Concern

 

The Company has an accumulated deficit of $8,953,768 and a working capital deficit of $9,844,269 as of December 31, 2021, compared to a working capital deficit of $3,168,246 as of December 31, 2020. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, which it has not been able to accomplish to date, and/or obtain additional financing from its stockholders and/or other third parties.

  

18

 

 

Our consolidated 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. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity or debt financing to continue operations, successfully locating and negotiating with other business entities for potential acquisition and /or acquiring new clients to generate revenues. The consolidated financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of the uncertainties.

 

In order to further implement its business plan and satisfy its working capital requirements, the Company will need to raise additional capital. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise additional equity or debt financing at acceptable terms, if at all.

 

There is no assurance that the Company will ever be profitable. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements. Those material accounting estimates that we believe are the most critical to an investor’s understanding of our financial results and condition are discussed immediately below and are particularly important to the portrayal of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by our management to determine the appropriate assumptions to be used in the determination of certain estimates.

 

Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TraQiQ, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The Company applies the guidance of Topic 810 Consolidation of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) to determine whether and how to consolidate another entity. Pursuant to ASC paragraph 810-10-15-10, all majority-owned subsidiaries—all entities in which a parent has a controlling financial interest—are consolidated except when control does not rest with the parent.

 

Pursuant to ASC paragraph 810-10-15-8, the usual condition for a controlling financial interest is ownership of a majority voting interest, and, therefore, as a general rule ownership by one reporting entity, directly or indirectly, of more than 50 percent of the outstanding voting shares of another entity is a condition pointing toward consolidation. The power to control may also exist with a lesser percentage of ownership, for example, by contract, lease, agreement with other stockholders, or by court decree.

 

Noncontrolling Interests

 

In accordance with ASC 810-10-45 Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company classifies noncontrolling interests as a component of equity within the consolidated balance sheet. In January 2021, the acquisition of Rohuma resulted in a less than 1% non-controlling interest of the Indian affiliate of that company. In February 2021, the acquisition of Mimo resulted in a less than 1% non-controlling interest of that company.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 periods. These estimates include, but are not limited to, management’s estimate of provisions required for non-collectible accounts receivable, depreciative lives of our assets, determination of technological feasibility, and valuation allowances of our deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Capitalized Software Costs

 

In accordance with the relevant FASB accounting guidance regarding the development of software to be sold, leased, or marketed, the Company expenses such costs as they are incurred until technological feasibility has been established, at and after which time these costs are capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers. Once the technological feasibility is established per ASC 985-20, the Company capitalizes costs associated with the acquisition or development of major software for internal and external use in the balance sheet. Costs incurred to enhance the Company’s software products, after general market release of the services using the products, is expensed in the period they are incurred. The Company only capitalizes subsequent additions, modifications or upgrades to internally developed software to the extent that such changes allow the software to perform a task it previously did not perform. The Company expenses software maintenance and training costs as incurred.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), specifically ASC 606-10-50-12. This standard provides a single set of guidelines for revenue recognition to be used across all industries and requires additional disclosures. The updated guidance introduces a five-step model to achieve its core principal of the entity recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted the updated guidance effective January 1, 2018 using the full retrospective method, however the new standard did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations, as it did not change the manner or timing of recognizing revenue.

 

Professional Service Revenue

 

TRAQ Pvt Ltd. generally derives a large part of its revenues from professional and support services, which includes revenue generated from software development projects and associated fees for consulting, implementation, training, and project management provided to customers using their systems. Revenue from arrangements with customers is recognized based on the Company’s satisfaction of distinct performance obligations identified in each agreement, generally at a point in time as discussed in ASC 606. In instances where multiple performance obligations are identified, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on relative selling prices of each distinct product or service, and recognizes revenue related to each performance obligation at the points in time that each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company’s performance obligation includes providing customization of software and the selling of licenses, where the Company typically satisfies its performance obligations prior to the submission of invoices to the customer for such services. The Company’s performance obligation for consulting and technical support is delivered on as the work is being performed, which is satisfied prior to invoicing. The Company generally collects payment within 30 to 60 days of completion of the performance obligation and there are no agency relationships.

 

Software development arrangements involving significant customization, modification or production are accounted for in accordance with the appropriate technical accounting guidance issued by the FASB using the percentage-of- completion method. The Company recognizes revenue using periodic reported actual hours worked as a percentage of total expected hours required to complete the project arrangement and applies the percentage to the total arrangement fee.

 

Unbilled revenue represents earnings in excess of billings as at the end of the reporting period. Sales taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and therefore are excluded from revenues in the statements of operations.

 

20

 

 

TRAQ Pvt Ltd. has deferred the revenue and costs attributable to certain process transition activities with respect to its customers where such activities do not represent the culmination of a separate earnings process. Such revenue and costs are subsequently recognized ratably over the period in which the related services are performed. Further, the deferred costs are limited to the amount of the deferred revenues.

 

TRAQ Pvt Ltd. has now started offering an integrated solution for supply chain and last mile. This product called “TraQSuite” is now offered in multiple markets as a cloud-based subscription offering. This is a significant improvement from the earlier professional services business.

 

Software Solution Revenue

 

Revenue from arrangements with customers is recognized based on the Company’s satisfaction of distinct performance obligations identified in each agreement, generally at a point in time as discussed in ASC 606. In instances where multiple performance obligations are identified, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on relative selling prices of each distinct product or service, and recognizes revenue related to each performance obligation at the points in time that each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company’s performance obligation includes providing connectivity to software, generally through a monthly subscription, where the Company typically satisfies its performance obligations prior to the submission of invoices to the customer for such services. The Company’s performance obligation for hardware components that are purchased by the customer in connection with the solution is delivery of the purchased device, which is satisfied prior to invoicing. The Company provides a twelve-month warranty on their hardware. All units deployed by the Company are past the twelve-month period, thus the Company has not accrued for a warranty liability. The Company generally collects payment within 30 to 60 days of completion of the performance obligation and there are no agency relationships.

 

Revenue From Sales of Goods

 

Revenue from arrangements with customers is recognized based on the Company’s satisfaction of distinct performance obligations identified in each agreement, generally at a point in time as discussed in ASC 606. The performance obligations are satisfied upon shipment of the merchandise being sold.

 

Costs of Services Provided

 

Costs of services provided consist of data processing costs, customer support costs including personnel costs to maintain the Company’s proprietary databases, costs to provide customer call center support, hardware and software expense associated with transaction processing systems and exchanges, telecommunication and computer network expense, and occupancy costs associated with facilities where these functions are performed. Depreciation expense is not included in costs of services provided.

 

Foreign Currency Transactions

 

The Company accounts for foreign currency transactions in accordance with ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Matters” (“ASC 830”), specifically the guidance in subsection ASC 830-20, “Foreign Currency Transactions”. The U.S. dollar is the functional and reporting currency for the Company and its subsidiaries other than the Indian subsidiaries whose functional currency is the Indian Rupee. Pursuant to ASC 830, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, with the resulting gains or losses upon settlement reported in foreign exchange gain (loss) in the computation of net income (loss). Gains or losses resulting from translation adjustments are reported under accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

 

Uncertain Tax Positions

 

The Company follows ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”. This requires recognition and measurement of uncertain income tax positions using a “more-likely-than-not” approach. Management evaluates the Company’s tax positions on an annual basis.

 

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal tax jurisdiction and various state and foreign tax jurisdictions. The federal and state income tax returns of the Company are subject to examination by the IRS and state taxing authorities, generally for three years after they were filed. Foreign income tax returns are subject to examination by foreign taxing authorities.

 

21

 

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

ASC 825, “Financial Instruments,” requires the Company to disclose estimated fair values for its financial instruments. Fair value estimates, methods, and assumptions are set forth below for the Company’s financial instruments: The carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, stockholder advances, and short-term financing approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of those instruments. The Company does not utilize derivative instruments.

 

Earnings (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock

 

Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) include additional dilution from common stock equivalents, such as convertible notes, preferred stock, stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options and warrants. Common stock equivalents are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share when the Company reports a loss because to do so would be anti-dilutive for periods presented. An uncertain number of shares underlying convertible debt have been excluded from the computation of loss per share because their impact was anti-dilutive.

 

Related Party Transactions

 

Parties are considered to be related to the Company if the parties directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, control, are controlled by, or are under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal stockholders of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal stockholders of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal where one-party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. The Company discloses all related party transactions. All transactions shall be recorded at fair value of the goods or services exchanged. Property purchased from a related party is recorded at the cost to the related party and any payment to or on behalf of the related party in excess of the cost is reflected as compensation or distribution to related parties depending on the transaction.

 

Lease Obligations

 

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, current portion of operating lease liabilities and operating lease liabilities, less current portion in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

 

ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. For leases in which the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for operating lease arrangements is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are accounted for separately.

BUSINESS

 

Overview

 

TraQiQ (or the “Company”) helps businesses leverage the “gig” or task economy by providing both technology solutions and a network of workers required to fulfill those tasks. TraQiQ offers software that enables clients to build and manage a network of contractors referred to as “task workers.” This platform is also used by business clients to manage their employees who are performing services, such as PC repair or food delivery, for example, in a large geographic area. TraQiQ’s Mimo service operates a network of 14,000+ task workers in India. These task workers are independent contractors who make deliveries, collect payments, do background verifications, and fulfill tasks across the supply chain, as needed by businesses to deliver their products and services to their respective markets and customers.

 

Our Company

 

With current operations concentrated in India, Southeast Asia, and Latin America, we are servicing business supply chains with last mile delivery and mobile commerce. We help businesses in emerging markets leverage the gig economy with a two-prong approach as follows: 1) We offer our software as a service so our customers can build their own delivery networks and 2) We currently offer our network of over 14,000 task workers in India through our Mimo network, with plans to expand this network into other geographic regions within our current operating footprint.

 

The Company has 110 employees focused primarily on software development and Mimo network operations, and a strategic planning team comprised of industry consultants who are looking at ways to further disrupt the supply chain across major industry segments. TraQiQ is continually looking at innovative ways to meet cutomer requirements faster, utilizing artificial intelligence (“AI”) tools to improve the customer experience by trying to predict their requirements in advance, while also regularly experimenting with new hardware technology like drones to improve deliveries. As we identify areas of both improvement and opportunity, our technology team works rapidly to meet those requirements.

 

With a strong team in place, a proven software solution, and an expanding network, as well as a customer base with global opearations, TraQiQ expects to expand into two new countries in the next twelve months. These markets will be in South East Asia and Latin America, where the company already has a presence, and for which this contemplated expansion will be faciltated by and accelerated, in part, with anticipated proceeds from this offering.

 

Market opportunity

 

The gig economy has grown over the last decade with the introduction of notable digital platforms such as Lyft, Uber, DoorDash Ola, Grab, Swiggy, Dunzo, and Task Rabbit, among others. With the rise of technology-enabled gig work platforms, more than 200 million people are now considered part of the global gig workforce, according to data from Mastercard Incorporated and Statista Inc..

 

With the growth of e-commerce, availability of task workers, and changes in general consumer behaviors in favor of “on-demand” products and services, we believe many businesses are increasingly moving towards, or participating in, a gig or task-based model. ASSOCHAM (India), projects the gig sector to grow to $455 billion (a cumulative annual growth rate of 17%) by 2024 in India and has the potential to expand at least two times the pre-pandemic estimates. ASSOCHAM (India) also estimates that India is likely to have 350 million gig jobs by 2025 (growing from the current 15 million as of May 2021), presenting a significant opportunity for job seekers to capitalize and adapt to the changing work dynamics.

 

Ernst & Young estimates that the e-pharma market in India will grow to $18 billion by 2023. We believe the COVID-19 pandemic may have accelerated this growth. Companies such as Amazon and Reliance have entered the medicine delivery market in India. TraQiQ’s Mimo service is preparing to enter the medicine delivery market in India.

 

24

 

 

In India, gig employment is not a novel concept. With its enormous informal economy and casual workers, India has long had the equivalent of gig work in both urban and rural areas, ranging from temporary agricultural workers to daily-wage construction laborers to delivery personnel. What has changed in recent years is the use of technology to match and expand on-demand services.

 

In the current world where so many people are ordering products ranging from food and drinks to medicine to socks online, we believe the “Last Mile” task worker represents a very valuable asset. This is the one and only direct connection to the customer for businesses fulfilling orders online. TraQiQ believes that “Last Mile” task workers are the only way for a business to establish a two-way relationship with the end customer to exchange information, money, transaction data and the actual goods.

 

This is where TraQiQ adds value, and it starts long before the actual delivery. The company’s technology helps our business-to-business customers with deliveries, assists with the financial transactions, and helps to build a long-term customer relationship via the Loyalty and Rewards program.

 

We believe the gig-economy model provides significant benefits for everyone within the gig eco-system:

 

  The consumer gets instant gratification by, for example, receiving their food within an hour of ordering it.
     
  The employers can minimize their costs and have flexibility to increase or decrease their workforce on demand.
     
  Employees/contractors can have flexibility and opportunity, with the full control over their jobs, hours and who they work with provided by gig jobs.

 

We believe the gig economy helps companies, employees, and the economy, with benefits that go beyond traditional conceptions of convenience, on-demand availability, and flexibility. This is due to the underlying economic factors that platform-enabled gig work addresses at scale, as well as the collateral advantages it can provide, which can lead to a virtuous expansion cycle.

Transaction fees averages about $1 per transaction, with discounts for higher volumes. Most customers also pay initial consulting fees upfront for integration of TraQSuite with their legacy software and training of their employees in the use of TraQSuite.

 

Mimo Delivery and Task Services

 

TraQiQ operates the Mimo delivery and task service in India. This service runs on the TraQSuite platform. Mimo has 14,000+ independent contractors across India performing deliveries and fulfilling tasks for the largest corporations in the country. Our team at Mimo uses a sophisticated technology platform and a smartphone app to get their tasks completed. This is coupled with a verification and billing system that allows customers of all sizes to leverage this distribution infrastructure.

 

Mimo offers a broad set of services. These offerings can be classified into three broad categories:

 

  Data collection and client verification (surveys, verification, on-boarding),
     
  Cash management & handling services, and
     
  Distribution and demand generation (order fulfilment, demand generation, delivery services for e-commerce companies)

 

Mimo assists the delivery and pickup segment of the banking and insurance industry by performing verifications, field investigations for loan requests, business verifications and employment verification, and also collects documents, assists in filling forms for banks, and completes data collection from customers.

 

Mimo works with microfinance institutions to collect cash, such as loan payments, convert cash to digital means like debit cards, and conduct data collection and surveys.

 

For consumer goods companies, Mimo does promotional marketing, Last Mile (hyper-local) delivery, merchant onboarding or activation, store audits, and route optimization for delivery. Mimo provides efficient end-to-end transshipment logistics. The framework manages and optimizes last-mile delivery and e-commerce logistics across the entire distribution chain with transparency and seamless integration. Mimo is currently in the planning stages to provide food, alcohol & medicine deliveries as well.

 

During the Covid pandemic, Mimo leveraged video as a platform for verification and document delivery. Now, the task workers include people who are in the field on bikes and trucks, people on a video screen, as well as people on the phone.

 

There are also data digitization tasks being done by Mimo task workers across the country. In a country like India where there are over 20 languages and multiple dialects, the task workers convert paper documents into electronic form in the same language or translate them into another language.

 

26

 

 

Revenue for the Mimo services is entirely based on the number of deliveries or other tasks that are performed. The customer is typically charged a fee of $3-$5 depending upon the geography, duration of task and distance that the task associate must travel. Two thirds of the fee is shared with the task associate, and one-third is retained by Mimo. While this revenue model has worked well in India where the services are currently offered, we may adjust it as needed as the service is offered in other geographic areas.

 

Customers

 

TraQiQ’s geographic focus is emerging and smaller economies. These are markets where we believe the barriers to entry are lower and the market potential is high.

  Companies such as Unilever Cambodia, Ben & Jerry’s, Lakme and others in South East Asia and Australia/New Zealand, for whom TraQiQ facilitates contactless ice cream delivery with a unique wallet and customer retention program, cosmetics products loyalty programs, and virtual point of sale (POS) systems for remote delivery.
     
  A white-labelled delivery service in New Zealand, for whom TraQiQ provided a complete software platform.
     
  Companies in Latin America such as Seguros Bolivar, Panafoto, and BBVA, for whom TraQiQ provides FinTech products and solutions.

 

Although our strategy is to expand our business operations and customer base through our 2021 acquisitions of Rohuma and Mimo, most of our revenue has come historically from a few customers For the year ended December 31, 2021, we had two major customers comprising 50% of our revenues, and at December 31, 2021 five customers represented 93% of our accounts receivable. For the year ended December 31, 2020 and at the end of that year, these customers accounted for 85% of our revenues and our accounts receivable, respectively. We do not believe that the risk associated with these customers will have an adverse effect on our business in the future.

 

Growth Strategy

 

Our gross revenue grew by 50% from 2019 to 2020 to reach the $1 million mark. Our gross revenue then more than doubled from 2020 to 2021 to exceed $2.7 million. In addition to our significant presence in India, Southeast Asia and Latin America, we have recently announced new customers in Australia, New Zealand and parts of Africa.

 

Our strategy is to grow our business through a combination of organic growth and strategic investments that bring new functionality and revenue streams to the company. We plan to enhance the functionality of our existing products, increase sales in the Indian market and enter into new emerging markets. Our data currently shows that within the first six months our business customers have an average increase of transactions of approximately 20%, and their customer’s transactions through our software increase by 15-20% over that period.

 

27

 

 

We believe we can continue to grow the Mimo network of task workers in India and are currently evaluating markets in Southeast Asia & Latin America for launching the Mimo service, as well. We plan to go live in at least two new markets within the next twelve months.

 

As hardware technology evolves, TraQiQ’s strategy is to provide additional delivery services by adding drones, e-bikes and robotic carts. The company has already had conversations with e-bike companies to equip the Mimo delivery team with electric bikes in the future.

 

Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Matters

 

TraQiQ’s Mimo service provides jobs across India. Most of the people who are doing deliveries and performing tasks are not college educated. Based on our records, over 70% of our current task workers do not have a high school diploma. While many of them start with Mimo to supplement their other wages, they migrate towards spending most of their time with Mimo. Mimo gives them an opportunity to earn reasonable wages and they make their own hours. We believe many of these people would have a tough time finding jobs elsewhere due to lack of educational credentials. Many of them have grown into corporate roles at Mimo like trainers and supervisors.

 

Markets

 

In addition to its significant presence in India, Southeast Asia and Latin America, TraQiQ has recently added new customers in Australia, New Zealand and parts of Africa. Management regards Africa as having substantial growth potential. According to World Mobile Ltd., approximately 66% of sub-Saharan Africans do not have a banking relationship, but Plug and Play Tech Center estimates there are over 525 million smart phones in use in that area. We believe these customers would be likely candidates for phone-based mobile payment systems.

 

Competition

 

TraQiQ competes to some extent with several Last mile service providers with established global names as well as other service providers that are established brands in India. Unlike TraQiQ, many of these companies market directly to consumers rather than to other businesses. However, several of these competitors have significantly greater resources and name recognitions than TraQiQ.

 

TraQiQ’s Mimo service has a business-to-business (“B2B”) focus. This inherently results in longer term relationships with clients. We believe this, in turn, has a direct impact on longer term profitability. Mimo also has a deeper focus on semi-urban and rural areas, which we believe is a significant competitive advantage, as we believe most of our competitors have continued to focus on the larger cities. However, there is no assurance we will compete successfully or achieve profitability in the future.

 

We believe Mimo’s technology has some unique elements that provide strong differentiation. There are significant machine learning algorithms that power the service, enabling optimal route planning, reducing time to get a task done and minimizing agent productivity. There are modules in service that enable trackability and audit of all service elements.

 

We also compete with companies offering multiple software products. Larger companies have had software solutions for field-force management for a long time or have extended their products to include workforce management. Similarly, there are multiple fintech companies that offer products to facilitate transactions and payments. In the loyalty & rewards segment, there are also several companies with either a global or regional following.

 

TraQiQ believes its software solution is improved by its service network. We believe running a large-scale service provides a unique advantage to TraQiQ, as the real-time feedback from running the service enables the company to make continuous improvements to its software. In addition, TraQiQ goes beyond just the Last mile delivery. By providing a robust set of fintech and analytics solutions, TraQiQ provides a one-stop-shop for customers and partners.

Employees and Human Capital Resources

 

As of December 31, 2021 TraQiQ had a total of 110 full time employees. Approximately 100 of these employees are based in India. None of our employees is represented by a labor union, and we consider our company culture and employee relations to be strong.

 

In addition, we have independent contractor relationships with approximately 14,000 “gig” workers throughout India who primarily provide delivery services and other tasks for business customers.

 

Intellectual Property

 

To date, TraQiQ has not obtained any patents on the software it has developed or registered any of its trademarks. Instead, the company protects its intellectual property rights by relying on national and local statutory and common law rights in the jurisdictions in which it operates, as well as contractual restrictions. TraQiQ enters into confidentiality and invention assignment agreements with its technical employees and contractors, and confidentiality agreements with third parties who perform technical services. Although the company is not aware that its software or trademarks infringe the patents or trademarks of any other party, it may face allegations by third parties, including its competitors, that aspects of its software or trademarks infringe their trademarks, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property rights in a particular jurisdiction.

 

Facilities

 

TraQiQ does not own any property. The company has an office with approximately 2,800 square feet that accommodates its 100 employees in India (on a rotational basis), which it occupies under a lease with a term through 2027 (with options to renew for an additional 6 years) and rent of $2,100 per month. In addition, it has Executive/Shared space in Bellevue WA, Santa Monica, CA and Bogota Colombia. Its main corporate mailing address is 14205 S.E. 36th St., Suite 100, Bellevue, WA 98006.

 

Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, the company may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm the company’s business. TraQiQ is currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, operating results or cash flows. However, lawsuits or any other legal or administrative proceeding, regardless of the outcome, may result in diversion of the company’s resources, including its management’s time and attention.

 

Corporate History

 

TraQiQ was incorporated as a shell company in the State of California in 2009 under the name Thunderclap Entertainment, Inc. In 2017, Thunderclap Entertainment, Inc. changed its name to TraQiQ, Inc. and the company acquired OmniM2M, Inc. and TraQiQ Solutions, Inc. d/b/a Ci2i Services, Inc. in exchange for TraQiQ common shares, and Transport IQ in exchange for cancellation of indebtedness. In 2019, TraQiQ acquired Mann-India Technologies Private Ltd., an Indian Corporation, for warrants (and assumed debt), which then changed its name to TRAQIQ Solutions Private Limited. Effective December 31, 2020, Ci2i acquired the net assets of OmniM2M and TransportIQ, and then TraQiQ dissolved those subsidiaries in 2021. In the first quarter of 2021, TraQiQ acquired Rohuma LLC, a Delaware company, in exchange for common stock and Mimo-Technologies Pvt Ltd, an Indian corporation, for warrants (and assumed debt).

Corporate Governance

 

Board Independence

 

Our board of directors currently consists of four members. Of these, our board has determined that three (Mr. DuBois, Mr. Berman and Mr. Rankich) qualify as “independent directors” under the listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. and do not have any material relationships with TraQiQ that might interfere with their exercise of independent judgment. In addition, TraQiQ is a “Controlled Company” as defined in the Nasdaq listing standards because more than 50% of the company’s voting power is held by one individual. The company is, therefore, pursuant to Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5615(c)(2), exempt from certain aspects of Nasdaq’s listing standards relating to independent directors. Nevertheless, the company has voluntarily complied with some of such rules, and a majority of the members of the board of directors are “independent directors” under Nasdaq rules.

 

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

 

TraQiQ has adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct to document the ethical principles and conduct we expect from our employees, officers and directors. The Code of Ethics and Business Conduct is applicable to our employees and also includes a Code of Ethics for our chief executive and principal financial officers and any persons performing similar functions. A copy of our Code of Ethics and Business Conduct is available in the Investors section of our website (www.traqiq.com). We will provide a copy of the Code of Ethics to any person without charge, upon request to TraQiQ, Inc., 14205 S.E. 36th St., Suite 100, Bellevue, WA 98006, Attention: Ajay Sikka, CEO.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

 

Under our Articles of Incorporation, we are authorized to issue up to 300,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share, 50,000 shares of which are designated Series A Preferred Stock. As of the date of this prospectus, there are 4,171,638 shares of common stock and no shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.

 

Common Stock

 

Each share of common stock entitles the holder to one vote, either in person or by proxy, at meetings of shareholders. The holders of our common stock:

 

  have equal ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available if and when declared by our Board of Directors;
     
  are entitled to share ratably in all our assets available for distribution to holders of common stock upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs;
     
  do not have preemptive, subscription or conversion rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions or rights; and
     
  are entitled to one non-cumulative vote per share on all matters on which stockholders may vote except for voting for the election of directors.

 

Preferred Stock

 

The authorized shares of preferred stock may be issued with such designations, preferences, limitations and relative rights as the company’s board of directors may authorize, including but not limited to:

 

  the distinctive designation of each series and the number of shares that will constitute such series;
     
  the voting rights, if any, of shares of such series;
     
  the dividend rate on the shares of such series, any restriction, limitation or condition upon the payment of such dividends, whether dividends shall be cumulative, and the dates on which dividends are payable;
     
  the prices at which, and the terms and conditions on which, the shares of such series may be redeemed, if such shares are redeemable;
     
  the purchase or sinking fund provisions, if any, for the purchase or redemption of shares of such series;
     
  any preferential amount payable upon shares of such series in the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company or the distribution of its assets; and
     
  the prices or rates of conversion at which, and the terms and conditions of which, the shares of such series may be converted into other securities, if such shares are convertible.

 

The board of directors of the company has designated a series of preferred shares consisting of up to 50,000 shares, designated Series A Preferred Stock, none of which are currently outstanding. The terms of the Series A Preferred Stock are as follows:

 

  Dividends. No dividends are due and payable on the Series A Preferred Stock.
     
  Liquidation Preference. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the company, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to be paid out of the assets of the company legally available for distribution to its shareholders liquidating distributions in cash or property at its fair market value as determined by the company’s board of directors in the amount of a liquidation preference before any distribution of assets is made to holders of common stock or any other capital shares that rank junior to the Series A Preferred Stock as to liquidation rights. After payment of the full amount of the liquidating distributions to which they are entitled, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock will have no right or claim to any of the remaining assets of the company. Neither the purchase or redemption by the company of stock of any class, by any manner permitted by law, nor the consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other entity or the sale, lease, transfer or conveyance of all or substantially all of the property or business of the company shall be deemed to constitute a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the company.

 

38

 

 

  Conversion. Holders of Series A Preferred Stock may convert their shares at any time into shares of common stock at a ratio equal to the stated value of such shares divided by a conversion price equal to 85% of the average closing bid price of the common stock over the 20 trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion. This conversion price is subject to adjustment upon certain events, including (1) the payment of distributions payable in capital stock on the common stock or any other class of our shares junior to the Series A Preferred Stock; (2) the issuance to all holders of common shares of evidences of our indebtedness or certain rights or warrants entitling them to subscribe for or purchase common stock at a price per share less than the fair market value per share of common stock; or (3) subdivisions, combinations and reclassifications of common shares. If the company is a party to any transaction (including, without limitation, a merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange, tender offer for all or substantially all of its common shares or sale of all or substantially all of its assets), in each case as a result of which the common shares will be converted into the right to receive securities or other property (including cash or any combination of property or securities and cash), each share of Series A Preferred Stock, if convertible after the consummation of the transaction, will then be convertible into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable (including cash) upon the consummation of such transaction by a holder of that number of common shares or fraction of common shares into which one share of Series A Preferred Stock was convertible immediately prior to such transaction.
     
  Voting. In any matter in which the company’s stockholders are entitled to vote, including any action by written consent, each share of Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to 50,000 votes
     
  Other Provisions. The Series A Preferred Stock has no stated maturity and is not subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption provisions.

 

The issuance of Preferred Stock, or the issuance of rights to purchase such shares, could discourage an unsolicited acquisition proposal.

 

Underwriters’ Warrants

 

We have agreed to issue to the representative or its designees, at the closing of this offering, warrants to purchase               shares of common stock (5% of the number of shares sold in the offering). The underwriters’ warrants will be exercisable at any time, and from time to time, in whole or in part, during the four-and-a-half year period commencing six months from the effective date of the registration statement at a per share exercise price equal to 125% of the public offering price per share of common stock in the offering.

 

The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, extraordinary cash dividend or our recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrant exercise price or underlying shares will not be adjusted for issuances of shares of common stock at a price below the warrant exercise price.

 

The underwriters’ warrants and underlying shares are included in this prospectus.

 

Transfer Agent

 

The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Equity Stock Transfer, LLC, located at 237 W 37th St. Suite 602, New York, NY 10018.

California Anti-Takeover Law and Certain Charter and Bylaw Provisions

 

Approval of Merger. Under the California General Corporation Law (the “CGCL”), most business combinations, including mergers, consolidations and sales of substantially all of the assets of a California corporation, must be approved by the vote of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock and any other affected class of stock of such corporation. The articles of incorporation or bylaws of a California corporation may, but are not required to, set a higher standard for approval of such transactions. Our amended articles of incorporation and amended bylaws will not set higher limits.

 

California Law. We are subject to the provisions of Section 1203 of the CGCL, which contains provisions that may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers or delaying or preventing changes in control in which our shareholders could receive a premium for their shares or other changes in our management. First, if an “interested party” makes an offer to purchase the shares of some or all of our existing shareholders, we must obtain an affirmative opinion in writing as to the fairness of the offering price prior to completing the transaction. California law considers a person to be an “interested party” if the person directly or indirectly controls our company, if the person is directly or indirectly controlled by one of our officers or directors, or if the person is an entity in which one of our executive officers or directors holds a material financial interest. If, after receiving an offer from such an “interested person”, we receive a subsequent offer from a neutral third party at least 10 days prior to the date for acceptance of the tendered shares or the vote or notice of shareholder approval of the offer from such an “interested person”, then we must notify our shareholders of such third party offer and afford each of them the opportunity to withdraw their vote, consent or proxy previously given to the “interested party” offer before such vote, consent or proxy becomes effective.

 

We are also subject to other provisions of the CGCL, which include voting requirements that may also have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers, disposing of our assets or delaying or preventing changes in control of our management. Under Section 1101 of the CGCL, except in (i) a short-form merger or (ii) a merger of a corporation into a subsidiary in which it owns at least 90% of the outstanding shares of each class, if a single entity or constituent corporation owns more than 50% of any class of our capital stock and attempts to merge our Company into itself or other constituent corporation, the Company’s non-redeemable securities may only be exchanged for non-redeemable securities of the surviving entity, unless all of the shareholders of the applicable class of non-redeemable securities consent to the transaction and except as provided in Section 407 of the CGCL regarding the issuance and disposition of fractional shares. Section 1001(d) of the CGCL provides that any proposed sale or disposition of all or substantially all of our assets to any other corporation that we are controlled by or under common control with must be consented to by our shareholders holding at least 90% of the of the voting power of our capital stock or approved and determined fair by the DFPI, provided, however that this restriction does not apply if the disposition is to a domestic or foreign corporation or other business entity in consideration of the nonredeemable common shares or nonredeemable equity securities of the acquiring party or its parent. Sections 1101 and 1001 of the CGCL could make it significantly more difficult for a third party to acquire control of our Company by preventing a possible acquirer from cashing out minority shareholders or selling substantially all of our assets to a related party and therefore could discourage a hostile bid, or delay, prevent or deter entirely a merger, acquisition or tender offer in which our shareholders could receive a premium for their shares, or effect a proxy contest for control of us or other changes in our management.

UNDERWRITING

 

ThinkEquity LLC is acting as representative of the underwriters of the offering. We have entered into an underwriting agreement dated             , 2022 with the representative. Subject to the terms and conditions of the underwriting agreement, we have agreed to sell to each underwriter named below, and each underwriter named below has severally agreed to purchase, at the public offering price less the underwriting discounts set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, the number of shares of common stock listed next to its name in the following table:

 

Underwriter  Number of Shares 
ThinkEquity LLC    
      
      
Total     

 

The underwriters are committed to purchase all the shares offered by us, other than those covered by the over-allotment option to purchase additional shares described below, if they purchase any shares. The obligations of the underwriters may be terminated upon the occurrence of certain events specified in the underwriting agreement. Furthermore, pursuant to the underwriting agreement, the underwriters’ obligations are subject to customary conditions, representations and warranties contained in the underwriting agreement, such as receipt by the underwriters of officers’ certificates and legal opinions.

 

We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.

 

The underwriters are offering the shares subject to prior sale, when, as and if issued to and accepted by them, subject to approval of legal matters by their counsel and other conditions specified in the underwriting agreement. The underwriters reserve the right to withdraw, cancel or modify offers to the public and to reject orders in whole or in part.

 

We have granted the underwriters an over-allotment option. This option, which is exercisable for up to 45 days after the date of this prospectus, permits the underwriters to purchase up to an aggregate of additional shares of common stock (equal to 15% of the shares of common stock sold in the offering) in any combination thereof, at the public offering price per share, less underwriting discounts and commissions, solely to cover over-allotments, if any. If this option is exercised in full, the total price to the public will be $             and the total net proceeds, before expenses, to us will be $            .

 

Discounts, Commissions and Reimbursement

 

The following table shows the public offering price, underwriting discount and proceeds, before expenses, to us. The information assumes either no exercise or full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option.

 

   Per Share   Total with No Over-Allotment   Total with Over-Allotment 
Public offering price                                 
Underwriting discount (7.0%)               
Non-accountable expense allowance (1.0%)(1)               
Proceeds, before expenses, to us               

 

 

(1) We have agreed to pay a non-accountable expense allowance to the representative equal to 1.0% of the gross proceeds received in this offering.

 

41

 

 

The underwriters propose to offer the shares to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover of this prospectus. In addition, the underwriters may offer some of the shares to other securities dealers at such price less a concession not in excess of $                           per share. If all of the shares offered by us are not sold at the public offering price, the representative may change the offering price and other selling terms by means of a supplement to this prospectus.

 

We have also agreed to pay certain expenses of the representative relating to the offering, including: (a) fees, expenses and disbursements relating to background checks of our officers and directors, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $15,000; (b) the costs associated with bound volumes of the public offering materials as well as commemorative mementos and Lucite tombstones, up to $3,000; (c) $29,500 for fees and expenses for the underwriters’ use of book-building, prospectus tracking and compliance software for this offering; (d) the fees and expenses of the representative’s legal counsel, up to $125,000; (e) up to $10,000 for data services and communications expenses; (f) up to $30,000 of the representative’s market making and trading and clearing firm settlement expenses for the offering; and (g) up to $10,000 of the representative’s actual accountable road show expenses for the offering.

 

We have paid an advance of $40,000 to the representative, which will be applied against actual out-of-pocket accountable expenses and reimbursed to the Company to the extent any portion thereof is not actually incurred in compliance with FINRA Rule 5110(f)(2)(C).

 

We estimate that the total expenses of the offering payable by us, excluding the total underwriting discount, will be approximately $                   .

 

Underwriters’ Warrants

 

We have also agreed to issue to the representative or its designees, at the closing of this offering, warrants (the “Underwriters’ Warrants”) to purchase                 shares of common stock (5% of the number of shares sold in the offering). The Underwriters’ Warrants will be exercisable at any time and from time to time, in whole or in part, during a four-and-a-half year period commencing six months from the effective date of this offering. The Underwriters’ Warrants will be exercisable at a price equal to 125% of the public offering price per share.

 

The Underwriters’ Warrants provide for registration rights upon request, in certain cases. The sole demand registration right provided will not be greater than five years from the effective date of the registration statement in compliance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(8)(C). The piggyback registration rights provided will not be greater than seven years from the effective date of the registration statement in compliance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(8)(D). We will bear all fees and expenses attendant to registering the securities issuable on exercise of the warrants other than underwriting commissions incurred and payable by the holders. The exercise price and number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend or our recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrant exercise price or underlying shares will not be adjusted for issuances of shares of common stock at a price below the warrant exercise price.

 

Discretionary Accounts

 

The underwriters do not intend to confirm sales of the securities offered hereby to any accounts over which they have discretionary authority.

 

Lock-Up Agreements

 

Pursuant to “lock-up” agreements, we and our executive officers and directors and holders of 5% or more our outstanding common stock have agreed, subject to limited exceptions, without the prior written consent of the representative not to directly or indirectly offer to sell, sell, pledge or otherwise transfer or dispose of any of shares of (or enter into any transaction or device that is designed to, or could be expected to, result in the transfer or disposition by any person at any time in the future of) our common stock, enter into any swap or other derivatives transaction that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic benefits or risks of ownership of shares of our common stock, make any demand for or exercise any right or cause to be filed a registration statement, including any amendments thereto, with respect to the registration of any shares of common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common stock or any of our other securities or publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing, subject to customary exceptions, for a period of 90 days with respect to the Company and holders of 5% or more our outstanding common stock and 180 days from the date of this prospectus with respect to our executive officers and directors. We have also agreed that we will not, for a period of 12 months from the closing of the offering, without the consent of the representative, enter into any “at-the-market”, continuous equity or variable rate transaction, subject to certain exceptions.

 

42

 

 

Right of First Refusal

 

We have granted the representative a right of first refusal, for a period of 24 months from the consummation of this offering, to act as sole investment banker, book-runner and/or placement agent, at the representative’s sole discretion, for each and every future public and private equity offering, including all equity linked financings (each, a “Subject Transaction”), during such 24 month period, of the Company, or any successor to or subsidiary of the Company, on terms and conditions customary to the representative for such Subject Transactions.

 

Electronic Offer, Sale and Distribution of Securities

 

A prospectus in electronic format may be made available on the websites maintained by one or more of the underwriters or selling group members. The representative may agree to allocate a number of securities to underwriters and selling group members for sale to its online brokerage account holders. Internet distributions will be allocated by the underwriters and selling group members that will make internet distributions on the same basis as other allocations. Other than the prospectus in electronic format, the information on these websites is not part of, nor incorporated by reference into, this prospectus or the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, has not been approved or endorsed by us, and should not be relied upon by investors.

 

Stabilization

 

In connection with this offering, the underwriters may engage in stabilizing transactions, over-allotment transactions, syndicate-covering transactions, penalty bids and purchases to cover positions created by short sales.

 

Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase shares so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum, and are engaged in for the purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the shares while the offering is in progress.

 

Over-allotment transactions involve sales by the underwriters of shares in excess of the number of shares the underwriters are obligated to purchase. This creates a syndicate short position which may be either a covered short position or a naked short position. In a covered short position, the number of shares over-allotted by the underwriters is not greater than the number of shares that they may purchase in the over-allotment option. In a naked short position, the number of shares involved is greater than the number of shares in the over-allotment option. The underwriters may close out any short position by exercising their over-allotment option and/or purchasing shares in the open market.

 

Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of shares in the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to cover syndicate short positions. In determining the source of shares to close out the short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of shares available for purchase in the open market as compared with the price at which they may purchase shares through exercise of the over-allotment option. If the underwriters sell more shares than could be covered by exercise of the over-allotment option and, therefore, have a naked short position, the position can be closed out only by buying shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that after pricing there could be downward pressure on the price of the shares in the open market that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering.

 

Penalty bids permit the representative to reclaim a selling concession from a syndicate member when the shares originally sold by that syndicate member are purchased in stabilizing or syndicate covering transactions to cover syndicate short positions.

 

These stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of our shares of common stock or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of our shares of common stock. As a result, the price of our common stock in the open market may be higher than it would otherwise be in the absence of these transactions. Neither we nor the underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of our common stock. These transactions may be effected in the over-the-counter market or otherwise and, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.

 

43

 

 

Passive Market Making

 

In connection with this offering, underwriters and selling group members may engage in passive market making transactions in our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market in accordance with Rule 103 of Regulation M under the Exchange Act, during a period before the commencement of offers or sales of the shares and extending through the completion of the distribution. A passive market maker must display its bid at a price not in excess of the highest independent bid of that security. However, if all independent bids are lowered below the passive market maker’s bid, then that bid must then be lowered when specified purchase limits are exceeded.

 

Other Relationships

 

Certain of the underwriters and their affiliates have in the past and may in the future provide various investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services for us and our affiliates for which they may in the future receive customary fees. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, ThinkEquity LLC acted as the placement agent for the private placement of convertible notes we completed in September 2021, for which it received compensation.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Directors and

Shareholders of TraQiQ Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of TraQiQ, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as on December 31, 2021, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit and cash flows, for the year ended December 31, 2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Going Concern Uncertainty

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a accumulated deficit of $8,953,768 and working capital deficit of $9,844,269, that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting 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.

 

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of financial statement. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

Critical Audit Matters

 

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

See the explanatory paragraph of the opinion paragraph.
How the Critical Audit Matter was addressed in the Audit

NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TraQiQ, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The Company applies the guidance of Topic 810 Consolidation of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) to determine whether and how to consolidate another entity. Pursuant to ASC paragraph 810-10-15-10, all majority-owned subsidiaries—all entities in which a parent has a controlling financial interest—are consolidated except when control does not rest with the parent.

 

Pursuant to ASC paragraph 810-10-15-8, the usual condition for a controlling financial interest is ownership of a majority voting interest, and, therefore, as a general rule ownership by one reporting entity, directly or indirectly, of more than 50 percent of the outstanding voting shares of another entity is a condition pointing toward consolidation. The power to control may also exist with a lesser percentage of ownership, for example, by contract, lease, agreement with other stockholders, or by court decree.

 

F-11

 

 

Noncontrolling Interests

 

In accordance with ASC 810-10-45 Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company classifies noncontrolling interests as a component of equity within the consolidated balance sheet. In January 2021, the acquisition of Rohuma resulted in a less than 1% non-controlling interest of the Indian affiliate of that company. In February 2021, the acquisition of Mimo resulted in a less than 1% non-controlling interest of that company.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 periods. These estimates include, but are not limited to, management’s estimate of provisions required for non-collectible accounts receivable, depreciative lives of our assets, determination of technological feasibility, and valuation allowances of our deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Foreign Currency Transactions

 

The Company accounts for foreign currency transactions in accordance with ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Matters” (“ASC 830”), specifically the guidance in subsection ASC 830-20, “Foreign Currency Transactions”. The U.S. dollar is the functional and reporting currency for the Company and its subsidiaries other than TRAQ Pvt Ltd. whose functional currency is the Indian Rupee. Pursuant to ASC 830, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, with the resulting gains or losses upon settlement reported in foreign exchange gain (loss) in the computation of net income (loss). Gains or losses resulting from translation adjustments are reported under accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

 

Reclassification

 

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation with no effect on the Company’s net loss, total assets, liabilities equity or cash flows.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and on deposit at banking institutions as well as all highly liquid short-term investments with original maturities of 90 days or less of $56,329 and $29,658 as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

 

Restricted Cash

 

The Company’s restricted cash balance consists of time deposits with financial institutions which are valued at cost and approximate fair value. Interest earned on these deposits in included in interest income. The carrying value of our restricted cash at December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $114,199 and $28,746, respectively. The balances consist of time deposits pledged with financial institutions for a Line of Credit facility taken from Andhra Bank, issuance of overdraft limit.

 

Accounts Receivable and Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company considers accounts receivable, net of allowance for returns and doubtful accounts, to be fully collectible. The allowance is based on management’s estimate of the overall collectability of accounts receivable, considering historical losses and economic conditions. Based on these same factors, individual accounts are charged off against the allowance when management determines those individual accounts are uncollectible.

 

Credit extended to customers is generally uncollateralized. Past-due status is based on contractual terms. Management has determined that an allowance of $193,535 and $0 was required for the outstanding accounts receivable as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Property and Equipment and Long-Lived Assets

 

Fixed assets are stated at cost. Depreciation on fixed assets are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to ten years.

 

FASB Codification Topic 360 “Property, Plant and Equipment” (ASC 360), requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by an entity be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The application of ASC 360 has not materially affected the Company’s reported earnings, financial condition or cash flows.

 

Intangible assets with definite useful lives are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Intangible assets represent purchased intangible assets of TRAQ Pvt Ltd., and Mimo which includes customer relationships and trademarks. The Company amortizes these intangible assets on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of up to 15 years.

 

The Company has adopted Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2017-04 Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. The Company reviews recoverability of long-lived assets on a periodic basis whenever events and changes in circumstances have occurred which may indicate a possible impairment. The assessment for potential impairment is based primarily on the Company’s ability to recover the carrying value of its long-lived assets from expected future cash flows from its operations on an undiscounted basis. If such assets are determined to be impaired, the impairment recognized is the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.

 

The Company will assess the impairment of identifiable intangibles whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable at the time they do have intangible assets. Factors the Company considers to be important which could trigger an impairment review include the following:

 

1. Significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results;

 

2. Significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the overall business; and

 

3. Significant negative industry or economic trends.

 

When the Company determines that the carrying value of intangibles may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment and the carrying value of the asset cannot be recovered from projected undiscounted cash flows, the Company records an impairment charge. The Company will measure any impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in the current business model. Significant management judgment is required in determining whether an indicator of impairment exists and in projecting cash flows. Management has determined that no impairment of long-lived assets is required for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.

 

Capitalized Software Costs

 

In accordance with the relevant FASB accounting guidance regarding the development of software to be sold, leased, or marketed, the Company expenses such costs as they are incurred until technological feasibility has been established, at and after which time these costs are capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers. Once the technological feasibility is established per ASC 985-20, the Company capitalizes costs associated with the acquisition or development of major software for internal and external use in the balance sheet.

 

Costs incurred to enhance the Company’s software products, after general market release of the services using the products, is expensed in the period they are incurred.

 

F-13

 

 

The Company only capitalizes subsequent additions, modifications or upgrades to internally developed software to the extent that such changes allow the software to perform a task it previously did not perform. The Company expenses software maintenance and training costs as incurred. The Company acquired $152,027 in software costs in the Mimo transaction.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), specifically ASC 606-10-50-12. This standard provides a single set of guidelines for revenue recognition to be used across all industries and requires additional disclosures. The updated guidance introduces a five-step model to achieve its core principal of the entity recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted the updated guidance effective January 1, 2018 using the full retrospective method, however the new standard did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations, as it did not change the manner or timing of recognizing revenue.

 

Professional Service Revenue

 

TRAQ Pvt Ltd. derives a large part of its revenues from professional and support services, which includes revenue generated from software development projects and associated fees for consulting, implementation, training, and project management provided to customers using their systems. Revenue from arrangements with customers is recognized based on the Company’s satisfaction of distinct performance obligations identified in each agreement, generally at a point in time as discussed in ASC 606. In instances where multiple performance obligations are identified, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on relative selling prices of each distinct product or service, and recognizes revenue related to each performance obligation at the points in time that each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company’s performance obligation includes providing customization of software’s, selling of licenses, where the Company typically satisfies its performance obligations prior to the submission of invoices to the customer for such services. The Company’s performance obligation for consulting and technical support is delivered on as the work is being performed, which is satisfied prior to invoicing.

 

The Company generally collects payment within 30 to 60 days of completion of the performance obligation and there are no agency relationships.

 

Software development arrangements involving significant customization, modification or production are accounted for in accordance with the appropriate technical accounting guidance issued by the FASB using the percentage-of- completion method. The Company recognizes revenue using periodic reported actual hours worked as a percentage of total expected hours required to complete the project arrangement and applies the percentage to the total arrangement fee.

 

Unbilled revenue represents earnings in excess of billings as at the end of the reporting period. Sales taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and therefore are excluded from revenues in the statements of operations.

 

TRAQ Pvt Ltd. has deferred the revenue and costs attributable to certain process transition activities with respect to its customers where such activities do not represent the culmination of a separate earnings process. Such revenue and costs are subsequently recognized ratably over the period in which the related services are performed. Further, the deferred costs are limited to the amount of the deferred revenues.

 

TRAQ Pvt Ltd. has now started offering an integrated solution for supply chain and last mile. This product called “TraQSuite” is now offered in multiple markets as a cloud-based subscription offering. This is a significant improvement from the earlier professional services business.

Software  Solution Revenue

 

Revenue from arrangements with customers is recognized based on the Company’s satisfaction of distinct performance obligations identified in each agreement, generally at a point in time as discussed in ASC 606. In instances where multiple performance obligations are identified, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on relative selling prices of each distinct product or service, and recognizes revenue related to each performance obligation at the points in time that each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company’s performance obligation includes providing connectivity to software, generally through a monthly subscription, where the Company typically satisfies its performance obligations prior to the submission of invoices to the customer for such services. The Company’s performance obligation for hardware components that are purchased by the customer in connection with the solution is delivery of the purchased device, which is satisfied prior to invoicing. The Company provides a twelve-month warranty on their hardware. All units deployed by the Company are past the twelve-month period, thus the Company has not accrued for a warranty liability. The Company generally collects payment within 30 to 60 days of completion of the performance obligation and there are no agency relationships.

 

TraQSuite is a cloud based software platform with a revenue model based on initial and transaction-based licensing fees as well as consulting fees. Licensees pay an initial per-module fee that varies depending on the number of modules that are licensed. This fee is typically $10,000 per module. Customers are also billed on a per-user or per-transaction basis every month. User fees range from a $75 per month fee for the administrator to $5 per month for regular users. Transaction fees averages about $1 per transaction, with discounts for higher volumes. Most customers also pay initial consulting fees upfront for integration of TraQSuite with their legacy software and training of their employees in the use of TraQSuite.

 

Revenue From Sales of Goods

 

Revenue from arrangements with customers is recognized based on the Company’s satisfaction of distinct performance obligations identified in each agreement, generally at a point in time as discussed in ASC 606. The performance obligations are satisfied upon shipment of the merchandise being sold.

 

The following is a summary of revenue for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, disaggregated by type:

  

   2021   2020 
Professional Services Revenue  $1,111,353   $935,214 
Sale of goods   973,485    - 
Software Solution Revenue   627,462    74,735 
   $2,712,300   $1,009,949 

 

Costs of Services Provided

 

Costs of services provided consist of purchase of goods, data processing costs, customer support costs including personnel costs to maintain the Company’s proprietary databases, costs to provide customer call center support, hardware and software expense associated with transaction processing systems and exchanges, telecommunication and computer network expense, and occupancy costs associated with facilities where these functions are performed. Depreciation expense is not included in costs of services provided.

 

Lease Obligations

 

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, current portion of operating lease liabilities and operating lease liabilities, less current portion in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

 

ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. For leases in which the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.

 

F-15

 

 

Lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for operating lease arrangements is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are accounted for separately.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted under the asset and liability method. The current charge for income tax expense is calculated in accordance with the relevant tax regulations applicable to entity. 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 bases and for operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

Uncertain Tax Positions

 

The Company follows ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”. This requires recognition and measurement of uncertain income tax positions using a “more-likely-than-not” approach. Management evaluates their tax positions on an annual basis.

 

TraQiQ, Inc.and TraQiQ Solutions, Inc, file a consolidated income tax return and Rohuma US files a separate tax return in the U.S. federal tax jurisdiction and various state tax jurisdictions. TRAQ Pvt Ltd. as well as Mimo and Rohuma India file separate individual income tax returns in the India tax jurisdictions. The U.S. federal and state income tax returns of the Company are subject to examination by the IRS and state taxing authorities, generally for three years after they were filed. The India tax returns of are subject to examination by the India Income Tax Department and India state taxing authority, generally for 12 months after the relevant tax year, 24 months after the relevant tax year in case transfer pricing provisions are applicable.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

ASC 825, “Financial Instruments,” requires the Company to disclose estimated fair values for its financial instruments. The carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, stockholder advances, short term financing and convertible debt approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of those instruments. The Company does not utilize derivative instruments.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosure about fair value measurements.

 

The following provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which fair value is observable:

 

Level 1- fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted in active markets for identical assets or liabilities);

 

Level 2- fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and

 

Level 3- fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

 

Financial instruments classified as Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets include cash.

 

F-16

 

 

These consolidated financial instruments are measured using management’s best estimate of fair value, where the inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment to estimation. Valuations based on unobservable inputs are highly subjective and require significant judgments. Changes in such judgments could have a material impact on fair value estimates.

 

In addition, since estimates are as of a specific point in time, they are susceptible to material near-term changes. Changes in economic conditions may also dramatically affect the estimated fair values.

 

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management for the respective periods. The respective carrying value of certain financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. These financial instruments include cash, investments, short-term notes payable, accounts payable and accrued expenses.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

Derivatives are recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value. The conversion features of the convertible instruments are embedded derivatives and are separately valued and accounted for on the consolidated balance sheet with changes in fair value recognized during the period of change as a separate component of other income/expense. Fair values for exchange-traded securities and derivatives are based on quoted market prices. Valuations derived from various models are subject to ongoing internal and external verification and review. Model used incorporate market-sourced inputs such as interest rates and stock price volatilities. Selection of these inputs involves management’s judgment and may impact net income (loss).

 

With the issuance of the July 2017 FASB ASU 2017-11, “Earnings Per Share (Topic 260) Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815),” which addresses the complexity of accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features, the Company has chosen the early adopt retroactively the amendments in Part I of the standard whereby fair value derivative liabilities previously recognized were derecognized in the current and comparative periods. Under the amendments included in this update, the Company is no longer required to record changes in fair value during the period of change as a separate component of other income (expense) in the consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

The amendments in Part I of this Update change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments. As a result, a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded conversion option) no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value as a result of the existence of a down round feature. For freestanding equity classified financial instruments, the amendments require entities that present earnings per share (EPS) in accordance with Topic 260 to recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS. Convertible instruments with embedded conversion options that have down round features are now subject to the specialized guidance for contingent beneficial conversion features (in Subtopic 470-20, “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options”), including related EPS guidance (in Topic 260).

 

The amendments in Part II of this Update recharacterize the indefinite deferral of certain provisions of Topic 480 that now are presented as pending content in the Codification, to a scope exception. Those amendments do not have an accounting effect.

 

Under current GAAP, an equity-linked financial instrument with a down round feature that otherwise is not required to be classified as a liability under the guidance in Topic 480 is evaluated under the guidance in Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” to determine whether it meets the definition of a derivative. If it meets that definition, the instrument (or embedded feature) is evaluated to determine whether it is indexed to an entity’s own stock as part of the analysis of whether it qualifies for a scope exception from derivative accounting.

 

F-17

 

 

Generally, for warrants and conversion options embedded in financial instruments that are deemed to have a debt host (assuming the underlying shares are readily convertible to cash or the contract provides for net settlement such that the embedded conversion option meets the definition of a derivative), the existence of a down round feature results in an instrument not being considered indexed to an entity’s own stock. This results in a reporting entity being required to classify the freestanding financial instrument or the bifurcated conversion option as a liability, which the entity must measure at fair value initially and at each subsequent reporting date.

 

The amendments in this Update revise the guidance for instruments with down round features in Subtopic 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity,” which is considered in determining whether an equity-linked financial instrument qualifies for a scope exception from derivative accounting. An entity still is required to determine whether instruments would be classified in equity under the guidance in Subtopic 815-40 in determining whether they qualify for that scope exception. If they do qualify, freestanding instruments with down round features are no longer classified as liabilities and embedded conversion options with down round features are no longer bifurcated.

 

For entities that present EPS in accordance with Topic 260, and when the down round feature is included in an equity-classified freestanding financial instrument, the value of the effect of the down round feature is treated as a dividend when it is triggered and as a numerator adjustment in the basic EPS calculation. This reflects the occurrence of an economic transfer of value to the holder of the instrument, while alleviating the complexity and income statement volatility associated with fair value measurement on an ongoing basis. Convertible instruments are unaffected by the Topic 260 amendments in this Update.

 

Those amendments in Part I of this Update are a cost savings relative to current GAAP. This is because, assuming the required criteria for equity classification in Subtopic 815-40 are met, an entity that issued such an instrument no longer measures the instrument at fair value at each reporting period (in the case of warrants) or separately accounts for a bifurcated derivative (in the case of convertible instruments) on the basis of the existence of a down round feature. For convertible instruments with embedded conversion options that have down round features, applying specialized guidance such as the model for contingent beneficial conversion features rather than bifurcating an embedded derivative also reduces cost and complexity. Under that specialized guidance, the issuer recognizes the intrinsic value of the feature only when the feature becomes beneficial instead of bifurcating the conversion option and measuring it at fair value each reporting period.

 

The amendments in Part II of this Update replace the indefinite deferral of certain guidance in Topic 480 with a scope exception. This has the benefit of improving the readability of the Codification and reducing the complexity associated with navigating the guidance in Topic 480.

 

For public business entities, the amendments in Part I of this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The amendments in Part 1 of this Update should be applied in either of the following ways:

 

  1. retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the statement of financial position as of the beginning of the first fiscal year and interim period(s) in which the pending content that links to this paragraph is effective; or
     
  2. retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature for each prior reporting period presented in accordance with the guidance on accounting changes in paragraphs 250-10-45-5 through 45-10.

 

The amendments in Part II of this Update do not require any transition guidance because those amendments do not have an accounting effect.

 

F-18

 

 

Earnings (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock

 

Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) include additional dilution from common stock equivalents, such as convertible notes, preferred stock, stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options and warrants. Common stock equivalents are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share when the Company reports a loss because to do so would be anti-dilutive for periods presented.

 

Related Party Transactions

 

Parties are considered to be related to the Company if the parties directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, control, are controlled by, or are under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal stockholders of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal stockholders of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal where one-party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. The Company discloses all related party transactions. All transactions shall be recorded at fair value of the goods or services exchanged. Property purchased from a related party is recorded at the cost to the related party and any payment to or on behalf of the related party in excess of the cost is reflected as compensation or distribution to related parties depending on the transaction.

 

Retirement Benefits to Employees

 

Defined Contribution Plan

 

In India, the employees receive benefits from a provident fund, where the employer and employees each make monthly contributions to the plan at a pre-determined rate to the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner. Employer’s contributions to the fund is charged as an expense in the Statements of Operations.

 

Defined Benefit Plan

 

In accordance with the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, applicable for Indian companies, our Indian entities provide for a lump sum payment to eligible employees, at retirement or termination of employment based on the last drawn salary and years of employment with the Company. Current service costs for defined benefit plans are accrued in the period to which they relate. The liability in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated annually by the Indian entities. The Indian entities record annual amounts relating to their defined benefit plans based on calculations that incorporate various actuarial and other assumptions, including discount rates, mortality, assumed rates of return, compensation increases and turnover rates. The Indian entities reserves its assumptions on an annual basis and makes modifications to the assumptions based on current rates and trends when it is appropriate to do so. The Indian entities obligation in respect of the gratuity plan, which is a defined benefit plan, is provided for based on actuarial valuation.

 

Other Long-Term Employee Benefits

 

The Indian entities net obligation in respect of leave encashment is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value, and the fair value of any related assets is deducted. The discount rate is based on the prevailing market yields of Indian government securities at the reporting date that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Indian entities obligations. The calculation is performed using the projected unit credit method. Any actuarial gains or losses are recognized.

 

Investments

 

The Company’s investments are in debt and equity instruments. These investments are accounted for in accordance with ASC 320 Investments – Debt Securities and ASC 321 Investments – Equity Securities. Interest earned under such investments are included in interest income.

 

F-19

 

 

Segment Reporting

 

For purposes of segment disclosures, two or more operating segments should be grouped only if the segments meet all the requirements of paragraph 280-10-50-11, including the requirements for similar economic characteristics.

 

As a result, all operating units perform similar services, and approximately 99% of the Company’s revenue is generated from its Indian subsidiary. The Company believes that no segment reporting is required as all remaining operations outside of the Indian subsidiary is immaterial.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

There were updates recently issued, most of which represent technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries or transactions that are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Going Concern

 

The Company has an accumulated deficit of $8,953,768 and a working capital deficit of $9,844,269, as of December 31, 2021, and a working capital deficit of $3,168,246 as of December 31, 2020. As a result of these factors, management has determined that there is substantial doubt about the Company ability to continue as a going concern.

 

These consolidated 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 over a reasonable period. The consolidated financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of the uncertainties.

 

The Company has recently filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1 and engaged an investment banker to undertake an offering of approximately $15,000,000. The investment banker has assisted the Company in raising a bridge round of debt financing in the amount of $1,200,000, which is net of original issue discount of $240,000. Management intends to use the funds received from the capital raise to grow both organically and inorganically by pursuing potential synergistic companies as well as invest in technology and human capital for their existing operations. The Company’s ability to close on this potential offering to raise additional capital is unknown. Obtaining additional financing and the successful development of the Company’s contemplated plan of operations, ultimately, to profitable operations, are necessary for the Company to continue operations.

 

NOTE 3: ACQUISITIONS

 

ROHUMA

 

On January 22, 2021, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Rohuma, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Rohuma”) and its members, whereby the Rohuma members agreed to exchange all of their respective membership interests in Rohuma in exchange for 536,528 shares of common stock, of which the first tranche of shares were issued on March 1, 2021 totaling 320,285 shares, with the remaining value reflected as contingent consideration until the shares vest at which time they will be issued. The transaction was valued at $3,433,776 ($6.40 per share). The Company is making final determination on the revenue targets to ascertain that the second tranche of shares should be issued. Rohuma has an Indian affiliate that is owned 99% by Rohuma and 1% by its founding member. Rohuma controls this entity and the 1% ownership by the member is now less than 1% upon acquisition by the Company. This amount is reflected as a non-controlling interest.

 

The Company acquired the assets and liabilities noted below in exchange for the shares noted herein and accounted for the acquisition in accordance with ASC 805.

 

F-20

 

 

      
Cash  $6,027 
Accounts receivables, net   4,179 
Prepaid expenses and other current assets   8,943

Cash overdraft   (2,980)
Debt- related parties   (37,776)
Debt   (10,000)
Net assets and liabilities acquired  $(86,496)

 

The difference between the net liabilities acquired of $86,496, and the consideration paid (in the form of shares, inclusive of contingent consideration of $1,383,954) of $3,520,272 represents goodwill. The Company had an independent valuation consultant perform an impairment test and it was determined that no impairment exists on the goodwill as of December 31, 2021.

 

MIMO TECHNOLOGIES

 

On February 17, 2021, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Mimo Technologies Private Ltd., and Indian corporation (“Mimo”) and its shareholders, whereby the Mimo shareholders agreed to exchange all of their respective shares in Mimo in exchange for warrants to purchase 170,942 shares of the Company’s common stock. Of these warrants, 102,565 were earned at the date of acquisition, with the remaining 68,377 expected to be earned over the next two years from grant based on revenue goals for Mimo. The warrants have a term of three years and an exercise price of $0.008 and value in the amount of $1,640,447, of which $984,268 is reflected in additional paid in capital, with the remaining $656,179 reflected as contingent consideration. The Company is making final determination on the revenue targets to ascertain that the second tranche of warrants should be vested.

NOTE 13: CURRENT PORTION - CONVERTIBLE DEBT – RELATED AND UNRELATED PARTIES

 

The following is a summary of current portion - convertible debt - related and unrelated parties as of December 31, 2021 and 2020:

Excess of the fair value of shares issuable over the face value of the convertible notes  (a)   -    48,257 
              
      $-   $241,334 

 

  (a) In connection with the reverse merger in July 2017, the Company and two stockholders, who had provided related party advances to the Company, agreed to exchange their related party advances for 6% Convertible Promissory Notes that were originally due on January 15, 2018 (the “Notes”) in the amount of $68,077. From August 2017 through November 2017, the Company issued additional notes to four different parties (two of which were related parties) in the principal amount of $100,000 ($70,000 to related parties). In January 2018, the holders of the Notes agreed to extend the maturity to April 30, 2018, and in April 2018, agreed to further extend the maturity of certain notes to June or July 2018. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the maturity of the notes were further extended to March 31, 2019 and then again to periods ranging from June 30, 2019 to December 31, 2019. The Notes bear simple interest at 6% unless the Company defaults, which increases the interest rate to 10%. The Holders, at their option, can elect to convert the principal plus any accrued interest, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate equal to eighty percent (80%) of the average closing share price as quoted on the OTC Markets for the five (5) trading days prior to the date of conversion. There are two notes that had a maturity date of June 30, 2019, with the remaining notes having a maturity date of December 31, 2019. These notes had not been extended and were in default until June 30, 2021, when the note holders agreed to extend the debt until October 31, 2021, with no other changes to the notes. The Company has classified these notes as current liabilities. The Company had accrued the default interest on the two notes from July 1, 2019 through March 4, 2021. On March 5, 2021, the Company converted $156,250 in convertible notes which includes the excess of the fair value of shares issuable over the face value of the convertible notes along with $31,046 in accrued interest into 23,412 shares of common stock.
     
   

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company received additional proceeds from a related party of $25,000 (from Dharam V. Sikka, father of CEO) pursuant to a convertible note payable issued in May 2018, with the same interest rate and conversion terms as the Notes described above, initially maturing on December 31, 2018, which has been extended to March 31, 2019 and then again to December 31, 2019. Because the Notes are convertible into a variable number of shares of common stock based on a fixed dollar amount, in accordance with ASC Topic 480-10-50-2, the notes are recorded at the fair value of the shares issuable upon conversion. The excess of the fair value of shares issuable over the face value of the Notes is recorded as a discount to the note to be amortized into interest expense over the term of the note.

 

The remaining notes and all accrued interest were paid in October 2021. As the notes were settled in cash, no additional conversion premium is due.

     
 

In connection with the reverse merger in July 2017, the Company and two stockholders, who had provided related party advances to the Company, agreed to exchange their related party advances for 6% Convertible Promissory Notes that were originally due on January 15, 2018 (the “Notes”) in the amount of $68,077. From August 2017 through November 2017, the Company issued additional notes to four different parties (two of which were related parties) in the principal amount of $100,000 ($70,000 to related parties). In January 2018, the holders of the Notes agreed to extend the maturity to April 30, 2018, and in April 2018, agreed to further extend the maturity of certain notes to June or July 2018. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the maturity of the notes were further extended to March 31, 2019 and then again to periods ranging from June 30, 2019 to December 31, 2019. The Notes bear simple interest at 6% unless the Company defaults, which increases the interest rate to 10%. The Holders, at their option, can elect to convert the principal plus any accrued interest, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate equal to eighty percent (80%) of the average closing share price as quoted on the OTC Markets for the five (5) trading days prior to the date of conversion. There are two notes that had a maturity date of June 30, 2019, with the remaining notes having a maturity date of December 31, 2019. These notes had not been extended and were in default until June 30, 2021, when the note holders agreed to extend the debt until October 31, 2021, with no other changes to the notes. The Company has classified these notes as current liabilities. The Company had accrued the default interest on the two notes from July 1, 2019 through March 4, 2021. On March 5, 2021, the Company converted $156,250 in convertible notes which includes the excess of the fair value of shares issuable over the face value of the convertible notes along with $31,046 in accrued interest into 23,412 shares of common stock. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company received additional proceeds from a related party of $25,000 (from Dharam V. Sikka, father of CEO) pursuant to a convertible note payable issued in May 2018, with the same interest rate and conversion terms as the Notes described above, initially maturing on December 31, 2018, which has been extended to March 31, 2019 and then again to December 31, 2019. Because the Notes are convertible into a variable number of shares of common stock based on a fixed dollar amount, in accordance with ASC Topic 480-10-50-2, the notes are recorded at the fair value of the shares issuable upon conversion. The excess of the fair value of shares issuable over the face value of the Notes is recorded as a discount to the note to be amortized into interest expense over the term of the note. The remaining notes and all accrued interest were paid in October 2021. As the notes were settled in cash, no additional conversion premium is due.

 

Interest expense on these notes for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 are $7,495 and $19,361, respectively.

In accordance with ASC 842 - Leases, effective January 1, 2019, the Company up until May 16, 2019 did not have any long-term lease commitments. On May 17, 2019 with the Company’s acquisition of TRAQ Pvt Ltd., recorded a lease right of use asset and a lease liability at present value of $576,566 and $585,207, respectively. The Company is recording this amount at present value, in accordance with the standard, using an incremental borrowing rate by adjusting the benchmark reference rates with appropriate financing spreads and lease specific adjustments for the effects of collateral. The right of use asset will be composed of the sum of all lease payments plus any initial direct cost and will be straight line amortized over the life of the expected lease term. For the expected term of the lease the Company will use the term of the nine-year lease. This lease will be treated as an operating lease under the standard.

 

The Company has chosen to implement this standard using the modified retrospective model approach with a cumulative-effect adjustment, which does not require the Company to adjust the comparative periods presented when transitioning to the new guidance on January 1, 2019. The Company has also elected to utilize the transition related practical expedients permitted by the new standard. The modified retrospective approach provides a method for recording existing leases at adoption and in comparative periods that approximates the results of a modified retrospective approach.

NOTE 20: PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

 

The provision (benefit) for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 differs from the amount which would be expected as a result of applying the statutory tax rates to the losses before income taxes due primarily to the valuation allowance to fully reserve net deferred tax assets.

 

F-36

 

 

All United States based entities:

 

The following table summarizes the significant differences between the U.S. Federal statutory tax rate and the Company’s effective tax rate for financial statement purposes for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020:

 

   2021   2020 
Federal income taxes at statutory rate   21.00%   21.00%
State income taxes at statutory rate   7.50%   7.50%
Temporary differences   8.92%   0.38%
Permanent differences   (5.24)%   (0.98)%
Change in valuation allowance   (32.18)%   (27.90)%
Totals   0.00%   0.00%

 

Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon sufficient future taxable income during the period that deductible temporary differences and carry-forwards are expected to be available to reduce taxable income. As the achievement of required future taxable income is uncertain, the Company recorded a valuation allowance.

 

   As of   As of 
   December 31,
2021
   December 31,
2020
 
Deferred tax assets:          
Net operating losses before non-deductible items  $1,949,739   $747,748 
Stock-based compensation   683,299    28,174 
Depreciation     -    (1,616)
Total deferred tax assets   2,633,038    774,306 
Less: Valuation allowance   (2,633,038)   (774,306)
           
Net deferred tax assets  $-   $- 

 

As of December 31, 2021, the Company has a net operating loss carry forward of $7,241,371 expiring through 2037. The Company has provided a valuation allowance against the full amount of the deferred tax asset due to management’s uncertainty about its realization. Furthermore, the net operating loss carry forward may be subject to further limitation pursuant to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. The valuation allowance was increased by $1,858,732 in 2021.

 

The Company classifies income tax penalties and interest, if any, as part of other general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company did not expense any penalties or interest during the years ended December 31, 2021 or 2020 and did not accrue any penalties or interest as of December 31, 2021 or 2020.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying values of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.

 

At December 31, 2021, the Company performed an analysis of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance due to management’s uncertainty about its realization. The Company when necessary will record a valuation allowance against this deferred tax asset. Based on the analysis, the Company has determined that a valuation allowance of the Deferred Tax Assets of $116,111 is not necessary.

 

nOTE 21: EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

 

The Company’s Gratuity Plan for all of their Indian based entities provides for lump sum payment to vested employees on retirement or upon termination of employment in an amount based on the respective employee’s salary and years of employment with the Company. Liabilities with regard to the Gratuity Plans are determined by actuarial valuation using the projected unit credit method. Current service costs for the Gratuity Plan are accrued in the year to which they relate. Actuarial gains or losses or prior service costs, if any, resulting from amendments to the plans are recognized and amortized over the remaining period of service of the employees.

B Summary of Significant Accounting Policies i
   
  Basis of Presentation
   
  The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The financial statements and accompanying notes are the representations of the Company’s management, who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity.
   
ii Use of Estimates
   
  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) 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 periods. Management has made material estimates primarily with respect to revenue recognition and deferred revenue, provisions required for non-collectible accounts receivable, depreciative lives of our assets, intangible assets, annual impairment reviews of intangible assets, determination of technological feasibility, contingent liabilities, and the provision for income taxes and valuation allowances of our deferred tax liabilities. Actual results may be materially different from those estimates.
   
iii Reclassifications
   
  The Company has reclassified certain amounts relating to its prior period results to conform to its current period presentation. These reclassifications have not changed the results of operations of prior periods.
   
iv Functional currency
   
  The financial statements are reported in United States Dollar. The functional currency of the Company is Indian Rupees.

vii Accounts Receivable and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Receivable
   
  Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Amounts collected on accounts receivable are included in net cash provided by operating activities in the statements of cash flows. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses inherent in its accounts receivable portfolio. Management specifically analyses the aging of accounts receivable and historical bad debts, write-offs, customer concentrations, customer credit- worthiness, current economic trends, and changes in our customer payment patterns when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable. The Company reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts periodically. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to its customers. Allowances for doubtful accounts as on December 31, 2020 was $ 245,798. Bad debt expense was $19,648, for the year ended December 31, 2020.
   
viii Property and Equipment
   
  Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation on Property and Equipment is provided on the Declining Balance Method rates over the assets estimated useful lives. Depreciation on additions to/deductions from property, plant & equipment during the year is charged on pro-rata basis from/up to the month in which the asset is available for use/disposed. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred and major improvements that extend the life of the asset are capitalized and depreciated over the expected remaining life of the related asset. Gains and losses resulting from sales or retirements are recorded as incurred, at which time related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the Company’s accounts. The estimated useful lives applied by the Company for property and equipment are as follows:

 

Asset Category   Life (yrs.)
Computers and peripherals   3 years
Office equipment’s   5 years

 

ix Intangible Assets
   
  Intangible assets represent purchased intangible assets and internally generated intangible assets which includes developed technology, software’s and informational databases. We amortize these intangible assets on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

 

Asset Category   Life (yrs.)
Software/ Developed Technology   7 years

 

x Capitalized software costs
   
  In accordance with the relevant FASB accounting guidance regarding the development of software to be sold, leased, or marketed, the Company expenses such costs as they are incurred until technological feasibility has been established, at and after which time those costs are capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers. Once the technology feasibility is established as per ASC 985-20, the Company capitalizes costs associated with the acquisition or development of major software for internal and external use in the balance sheet. Costs incurred to enhance our software products, after general market release of the services using the products, is expensed in the period they are incurred. The Company only capitalizes subsequent additions, modifications or upgrades to internally developed software to the extent that such changes allow the software to perform a task it previously did not perform. The Company expenses software maintenance and training costs as incurred. The Company has capitalized software development cost during the year ended December 31, 2020.

xi Impairment of long-lived assets and finite life intangibles
   
  Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, and purchased intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long-lived asset or asset group be tested for possible impairment, the Company first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, an impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third party independent appraisals, as considered necessary.
   
xii Commitments and contingencies
   
  Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigations, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred.
   
xiii Income taxes
   
  Income taxes are accounted under the asset and liability method. The current charge for income tax expense is calculated in accordance with the relevant tax regulations applicable to entity.
   
  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 bases and for operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
   
xiv Segment Reporting
   
  Since the Company, from the perspective of its chief operating decision maker, allocates resources and evaluates business performance as a single entity that provides software and related services to various industries on a worldwide basis, the Company reports as a single segment.
   
xv Related Party Transactions
   
  Parties are considered to be related to the Company if the parties directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, control, are controlled by, or are under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal stockholders of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal stockholders of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal where one-party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. The Company discloses all related party transactions. All transactions shall be recorded at fair value of the goods or services exchanged. Property purchased from a related party is recorded at the cost to the related party and any payment to or on behalf of the related party in excess of the cost is reflected as compensation or distribution to related parties depending on the transaction.
   
xvi Revenue recognition
   
  Revenue is recognized when services are provided to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for our services.
   
  Revenue is measured based on consideration specified in a contract with a customer and excludes discounts and amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by providing services to a customer.
   
  Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by the Company from a customer, are excluded from revenue.

Notes to Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2020

 

 

  Revenue from arrangements with customers is recognized based on the Company’s satisfaction of distinct performance obligations identified in each agreement, generally at a point in time as discussed in ASC 606. In instances where multiple performance obligations are identified, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on relative selling prices of each distinct product or service, and recognizes revenue related to each performance obligation at the points in time that each performance obligation is satisfied.
   
  The Company’s performance obligation includes providing customization of software’s, selling of licenses, where the Company typically satisfies its performance obligations prior to the submission of invoices to the customer for such services. The Company’s performance obligation for consulting and technical support is delivered on as the work is being performed, which is satisfied prior to invoicing. The Company generally collects payment within 30 to 60 days of completion of the performance obligation and there are no agency relationships.
   
  Unbilled revenue represents earnings in excess of billings as at the end of the reporting period. Sales taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and therefore are excluded from revenues in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
   
  The Company has deferred the revenue and costs attributable to certain process transition activities with respect to its customers where such activities do not represent the culmination of a separate earnings process. Such revenue and costs are subsequently recognized ratably over the period in which the related services are performed. Further, the deferred costs are limited to the amount of the deferred revenues.
   
xvii Costs of Revenue
   
  Costs of Revenue consist of Payment Gateway Charges, Agent Commissions, customer support costs including personnel costs to maintain our proprietary databases, costs to provide customer call support, and computer network expense, and occupancy costs associated with facilities where these functions are performed. Depreciation expense is not included in costs of services provided.
   
xviii Lease Obligations
   
  The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of- use(“ROU”) assets, current portion of operating lease liabilities and operating lease liabilities, less current portion in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
   
  ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. For leases in which the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for operating lease arrangements is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are accounted for separately.
   
xix Retirement benefits to employees
   
  a) Defined contribution plan
   
  In India, the employees receive benefits from a provident fund, where the employer and employees each make monthly contributions to the plan at a pre-determined rate to the Regional Provident Fund Commissioner. Employer’s contribution to the fund is charged as an expense to the statement of operations.

  b) Defined benefit plan
   
  In accordance with the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972, applicable for Indian companies, the Company provides for a lump sum payment to eligible employees, at retirement or termination of employment based on the last drawn salary and years of employment with the Company. Current service costs for defined benefit plans are accrued in the period to which they relate. The liability in respect of defined benefit plans is calculated annually by the Company. The Company records annual amounts relating to its defined benefit plans based on calculations that incorporate various actuarial and other assumptions, including discount rates, mortality, assumed rates of return, compensation increases and turnover rates. The Company reviews its assumptions on an annual basis and makes modifications to the assumptions based on current rates and trends when it is appropriate to do so. The Company’s obligation in respect of the gratuity plan, which is a defined benefit plan, is provided for based on actuarial valuation.
   
  c) Other long-term employee benefits
   
  Benefits under the Company’s leave encashment constitute other long term employee benefits.
   
  The Company’s net obligation in respect of leave encashment is the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine its present value, and the fair value of any related assets is deducted. The discount rate is based on the prevailing market yields of Indian government securities as at the reporting date that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Company’s obligations. The calculation is performed using the projected unit credit method. Any actuarial gains or losses are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
   
xx Fair Value Measurement
   
  The Company follows the relevant GAAP guidance regarding the determination and measurement of the fair value of assets/liabilities in which fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction valuation hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs when measuring fair value. The guidance describes the following three levels of inputs that may be used in the methodology to measure fair value:
   
  Level 1 — Quoted prices available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date;
  Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date; and,
  Level 3 — Unobservable inputs, which are to be used in situations where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability and wherein the reporting entity makes estimates and assumptions related to the pricing of the asset or liability including assumptions regarding risk.
   
  Financial instruments not carried at fair value:
   
  The Company’s other financial instruments not carried at fair value consist primarily of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses for which fair values approximate their carrying amounts due to their short-term nature.
   
xxi Earnings per share
   
  Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. For the purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share, the treasury stock method is used for stock-based awards except where the results would be anti-dilutive.

xxii Commitments and contingencies
   
  Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties, and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment and/or remediation can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs incurred in connection with such liabilities are expensed as incurred.
   
xxiii Recent Relevant Accounting Pronouncements
   
  In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13 (“ASU 2016-13”) “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, which requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost. ASU 2016-13 replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected loss model which requires the use of forward-looking information to calculate credit loss estimates. It also eliminates the concept of other-than-temporary impairment and requires credit losses related to certain available-for-sale debt securities to be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a reduction in the amortized cost basis of the securities. These changes result in earlier recognition of credit losses. The adoption does not was not material to our financial statements.
   
  There were updates recently issued, most of which represent technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries or transactions that are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
   
2 Significant risks and uncertainties including business and credit concentrations
   
  Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of bank balances, accounts receivable, loan & advance and unbilled revenue. By their nature, all such financial instruments involve risk including credit risk of non-performance by counter parties. In the management’s opinion, as of December 31, 2020 and Janaury 1, 2020, there was no significant risk of loss in the event of non-performance by the counter parties to these financial instruments other than the amounts already provided for in the financial statements.
   
  Accounts receivable are uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms. The carrying amount of receivables is reduced by a valuation allowance that reflects management’s best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected.
   
  For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company had one major customers comprising 40% of revenues. A major customer is defined as a customer that represents 10% or greater of total revenues. There was 87% of accounts receivable for two customers as of December 31, 2020.
   
  The Company does not believe that the risk associated with these customers or vendors will have an adverse effect on the business.

21 Earnings per Share
   
  The basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”), and the basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding for all periods as presented in the accompanying Statements of Operation and Comprehensive Loss are shown below:

 

Earnings per Share 

For Year ended

December 31, 2020

 
Basic earnings per common share  $(45.65)
Diluted earnings per common share  $(45.65)
Basic weighted average shares outstanding   14,943

  Basic EPS is equal to net income attributable to MIMO divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS takes into consideration common stock equivalents.

At December 31, 2020 there were zero potentially issuable shares with respect to common stock equivalents which could dilute EPS in the future but which were excluded from the diluted EPS calculation because presently their effect is anti-dilutive.

25 Impact of Covid 19
   
  In March 2020, the Government of India declared the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic. The outbreak has resulted in government authorities and businesses throughout the world implementing numerous measures intended to contain and limit the spread of COVID-19, including travel restrictions, business limitations and shutdowns. These measures have negatively impacted consumer and business spending and payments activity generally, and have significantly contributed to impact business.
   
  The Company has assessed the impact of COVID-19 on the carrying amount of its assets and revenue recognition.

Based on aforesaid assessment management believes that as per, estimates made conservatively, the Company will continue as a going concern.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

The Company is a California corporation.

 

Section 317 of the CGCL provides that a California corporation may indemnify any person who was or is, or is threatened to be made, a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of such corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was an officer, director, employee or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as an officer, director, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided that such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was illegal. Section 317 of the CGCL further authorizes a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any indemnified person against any liability asserted against and incurred by such person in any indemnified capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, regardless of whether the corporation would otherwise have the power to indemnify such person under the CGCL.

 

Section 204(a)(10) of the CGCL provides that a corporation’s articles of incorporation may include provisions eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duties as a director, except for liability (i) for acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing and culpable violation of law, (ii) for acts or omissions that a director believes to be contrary to the best interests of the corporation or its shareholders or that involve the absence of good faith on the part of the director, (iii) for any transaction from which a director derived an improper personal benefit, (iv) for acts or omissions that show a reckless disregard for the director’s duty to the corporation or its shareholders in circumstances in which the director was aware, or should have been aware, in the ordinary course of performing a director’s duties, of a risk of a serious injury to the corporation or its shareholders, (v) for acts or omissions that constitute an unexcused pattern of inattention that amounts to an abdication of the director’s duty to the corporation or its shareholders, (vi) for interested party transactions that violate Section 310 of the CGCL, (vii) loan guaranties contrary to Section 315 of the CGCL or (viii) for unlawful payment of dividends, distributions or distributions of assets to shareholders after institution of dissolution proceedings that violate Section 316 of the CGCL.

 

Our amended articles of incorporation will provide for the elimination of liability for our directors for monetary damages to the fullest extent permissible under the CGCL and authorize us to indemnify our directors and officers in excess of the indemnification otherwise permitted by Section 317 of the CGCL, subject only to the applicable limits set forth in Section 204 of the CGCL with respect to actions for breach of duty to the corporation and its shareholders.

 

II-1
 

 

Our amended bylaws will provide that we must indemnify any person who is or was our director or officer, or was serving at our request as a director or officer of another corporation or enterprise to the fullest extent authorized by law. Our amended bylaws will further provide that we must pay expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided that, if required by CGCL, such payment of expenses will only be made upon delivery of an undertaking, by or on behalf of an indemnified person, to repay all amounts so advanced if it should be determined ultimately that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under this section or otherwise.

 

We have an insurance policy covering our officers and directors with respect to certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and otherwise.

 

The foregoing is only a general summary of certain aspects of California law and our governing documents and agreements dealing with indemnification of directors and officers, and does not purport to be complete. It is qualified in its entirety by reference to our amended articles of incorporation and amended bylaws, which are filed as an exhibit to this registration statement, and to the relevant provisions of the CGCL.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors and officers or for persons controlling us under any of the foregoing provisions, in the opinion of the SEC, that indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Item 17. Undertakings.

 

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

 

  (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

II-6
 

 

  (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) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
     
  (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.

 

(2) That for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933 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.
   
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, 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, 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.
   
(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 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;
     
  (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

 

II-7
 

 

  (iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

 

(6) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
   
(7) 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 provisions described in Item 14 above, or otherwise, the Registrant has 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. 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 Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
   
(8) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

 

  (i) That 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.
     
  (ii) That 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 this offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
