DIAMONDHEAD CASINO CORPORATION

AND SUBSIDIARIES

 

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

 

Note 1. Organization and Business

 

Diamondhead Casino Corporation (the “Company”) owns, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Mississippi Gaming Corporation, an approximate 400-acre undeveloped property located at 7051 Interstate 10, Diamondhead, Mississippi 39525 (hereafter “the Diamondhead Property” or “the Property”). The Company’s intent was and is to construct a casino resort and other amenities on the Property unilaterally or in conjunction with one or more joint venture partners. However, the Company has been unable, to date, to obtain financing to move the project forward and/or enter into a joint venture partnership. There can be no assurance that the substantial funds required for the design and construction of the project can be obtained or that such funds can be obtained on acceptable terms. In addition, the Company has been unable to obtain financing to sustain the Company. Due to its lack of financial resources, the Company was forced to explore other alternatives, including a sale of part or all of the Property. The Company’s preference is to sell only part of the Property inasmuch as this would appear to be in the best interest of the stockholders of the Company. However, there can be no assurance the Company will be able to sell only part of the Property. The Company intends to continue to pursue a joint venture partnership and/or other financing while seeking a viable purchaser for part or all of the Property. Finally, there can be no assurance that if the requisite financing for the project were obtained and the project were constructed, that the project would be successful.

 

Note 2. Liquidity and Going Concern

 

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses over the past several years, has no operations, generates no operating revenues and, as reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, incurred a net loss applicable to common stockholders of $1,326,975 and $1,316,710 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 respectively. In addition, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $46,678,350 on September 30, 2023. Due to its lack of financial resources, the Company has been forced to explore other alternatives, including a sale of part or all of the Property.

 

The Company has had no operations since it ended its gambling cruise ship operations in 2000. Since that time, the Company has concentrated its efforts on the development of its Diamondhead, Mississippi property. That development is dependent upon the Company obtaining the necessary capital, through either equity and/or debt financing, unilaterally or in conjunction with one or more partners, to master plan, design, obtain permits for, construct, open, and operate a casino resort.

 

In the past, in order to raise capital to continue to pay on-going costs and expenses, the Company has borrowed funds, through Private Placements of convertible instruments as well as through other secured notes which are more fully described in Notes 5 through 10 to these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company is in default with respect to payment of both principal and interest under the terms of most of these instruments. In addition, at September 30, 2023, the Company had $13,488,928 of accounts payable and accrued expenses and $25,112 in cash on hand.

 

The above conditions raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Note 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X and the related rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, we believe that the disclosures included in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this document have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion, reflect all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation in accordance with GAAP and SEC regulations for interim financial statements. The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that we will have for any subsequent period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, attached to our annual report on Form 10-K.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Diamondhead Casino Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Land

 

Land held for development is carried at cost. Costs directly related to site development, such as licensing, permitting, engineering, and other costs, are capitalized.

 

Land development costs, which have been capitalized, consist of the following at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

 

Land  $4,934,323 
Licenses   77,000 
Engineering and costs associated with permitting   464,774 
   $5,476,097 

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurements” for financial assets and liabilities. This standard defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. The standard discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). The standard utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

 

7

 

 

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2: Input other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

 

Level 3: Unobservable input that reflects management’s own assumptions.

 

Financial instruments included in current assets and liabilities are reported at carrying value in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, which approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company reviews long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows projected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount the carrying value exceeds the fair value of such assets determined by appraisal, discounted cash flow projections, or other means. As of September 30, 2023, there was a triggering event due to recurring losses and an impairment test was conducted. However, the fair value of the long-lived assets exceeded the carrying value and the Company determined that no impairment existed at September 30, 2023.

 

Net Loss per Common Share

 

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus other potentially dilutive securities. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of diluted loss per shares since their effect would be antidilutive. Common shares outstanding consist of issued shares, including allocated and committed shares held by the ESOP trust, less shares held in treasury. Common shares outstanding excludes the 910,000 shares subject to be issued in connection with notes payables (see note 9) and 185,000 shares subject to be issued to the Chairman of the Board of Directors. (see note 11). The dilutive securities below do not include 5,055,555 potentially convertible Debentures since the requirements for possible conversion have not yet been met and may never be met.

 

The table below summarizes the components of potential dilutive securities at September 30, 2023 and 2022.

 

         
   September 30, 
Description  2023   2022

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivative and Hedging (Topic 815, and Leases (Topic 841). This new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods. This pronouncement was amended under ASU 2019-10 to allow an extension on the adoption date to entities that qualify as a small reporting company. The Company has elected this extension and the effective date for the Company to adopt this standard will be for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Accordingly, the Company has adopted this standard as of January 1, 2023 and it did not have an effect on its consolidated financial statements.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

On March 27, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-01, which amends certain provisions of ASC 842 that apply to arrangements between related parties under common control. Specifically, the ASU:

 

  Offers private companies, as well as not-for-profit entities that are not conduit bond obligors, a practical expedient that gives them the option of using the written terms and conditions of a common-control arrangement when determining whether a lease exists and the subsequent accounting for the lease, including the lease’s classification
     
  Amends the accounting for leasehold improvements in common-control arrangements for all entities.

 

The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company has not completed its assessment of the standard, but does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

 

No other recent accounting pronouncements were issued by FASB that are believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

Note 5. Convertible Notes and Line of Credit

 

Line of Credit

 

In 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with an unrelated third party for an unsecured Line of Credit up to a maximum of $1,000,000. The Line of Credit carries an interest rate on amounts borrowed of 9% per annum. All funds originally advanced under the facility were due and payable by November 1, 2012. As an inducement to provide the facility, the lender was awarded an immediate option to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock of the Company at $1.75 per share. In addition, the lender received an option to purchase a maximum of 250,000 additional shares of common stock of the Company at $1.75 per share. The options expire following repayment in full by the Company of the amount borrowed. The Company is in default under the repayment terms of the agreement. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the unpaid principal and accrued interest due on the obligation totaled $2,280,490 and $2,213,422, respectively.

 

Convertible Notes

 

The Convertible Notes issued pursuant to the two Private Placements discussed above total $962,500 in principle and became due and payable beginning in March 2012 and extending to various dates through June 2013. As of the date of the filing of this report, all the aforementioned debt obligations remain unpaid and in default under the repayment terms of the notes. In November 2020, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware awarded Judgments in favor of certain holders of these Promissory Notes who filed suit against the Company. As a result, the Company must carry an aggregate of $486,796 (total principal and interest) as debt owed to these noteholders. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, all Notes issued had a total outstanding principal of $962,500 and accrued interest, including the additional interest awarded pursuant to the Court Judgments, of $1,120,169 and $1,043,547 respectively.

 

The table below summarizes the Company’s debt arising from the above-described sources as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

   $962,500   $962,500 

 

* Of the 2010 placements above, $75,000 is due to a related party.

 

Note 6. Convertible Debentures

 

Pursuant to a Private Placement Memorandum dated February 14, 2014 (the “Private Placement”), the Company offered up to a maximum of $3,000,000 of Collateralized Convertible Senior Debentures to accredited or institutional investors. The Offering was conducted contingent on the deposit into Escrow of the purchase price for all the Debentures offered in the principal amount of $3,000,000. The Debentures, once issued, originally bore interest at 4% per annum after 180 days, matured six years from the date of issuance, and were secured by a lien on the Company’s Mississippi property. The interest rate on these debentures was raised pursuant to subsequent agreements. The debentures were offered in three tranches as follows:

 

(a) $1,000,000 of First Tranche Collateralized Convertible Senior Debentures convertible into an aggregate of 3,333,333 shares of Common Stock of the Company at a conversion price of $.30 per share (the “First Tranche Debentures”);

 

(b) $1,000,000 of Second Tranche Collateralized Convertible Senior Debentures, convertible into an aggregate of 2,222,222 shares of Common Stock of the Company at a conversion price of $.45 per share (the “Second Tranche Debentures”); and

 

10

 

 

(c) $1,000,000 of Third Tranche Collateralized Convertible Senior Debentures, convertible into either 1,818,182 shares of Common Stock or 1,333,333 shares of Common Stock of the Company, at a conversion price of $.55 or $.75 per share depending upon certain conditions described in the Private Placement Memorandum (the “Third Tranche Debentures”).

 

The conversion rights on each issued Debenture carried an Anti-Dilution Provision. If the Company issued any shares of Common Stock or other securities after March 31, 2014 at a price per security that was less than the conversion price of a Debenture, then the Debenture would have had a new conversion price equal to the price per security that was less than the Conversion Price of the Debenture. The foregoing provision did not apply to the following:

 

(a) The issuance of any of the other Debentures in the Offering or the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of any of the Debentures in the Offering.

 

(b) The issuance of any shares of Common Stock if such issuance relates to an agreement, arrangement or grant to issue shares of Common Stock entered into by the Company prior to the Issue Date of the First Tranche Debentures in the Offering, including but not limited to, for example, previously issued convertible promissory notes, previously issued warrants, previously issued options to purchase Common Stock, or common stock vested or to be issued pursuant to a pre-existing Employee Stock Ownership Plan.

 

The Anti-Dilution Provisions with respect to a Debenture terminate the earlier of (a) the date (if ever) the Company receives an “Approval to Proceed” from the Mississippi Gaming Commission to develop a casino/hotel on the Property, (b) the date on which the Debenture is converted in full, (c) the date on which the Debenture is paid in full, or (d) the Final Maturity Date of the Debenture (as defined in the Debenture).

 

Since the issuance of the Debentures, there have been no events that would trigger the above anti-dilution provisions.

 

The First Tranche Debentures were issued on March 31, 2014. The Final Maturity Date of the First Tranche Debentures was six years from the issuance date of the Debentures, or March 31, 2020. Therefore, the anti-dilution provisions of the First Tranche Debentures have expired.

 

The Second Tranche Debentures were issued on December 31, 2014. The Final Maturity Date of the Second Tranche Debentures was six years from the issuance date of the Debentures, or December 31, 2020. Therefore, the anti-dilution provisions of the Second Tranche Debentures have expired.

 

When originally issued, in the event the Company failed to meet the conditions for conversion of the Debentures, the First Tranche Convertible Debentures, which total $950,000, would have been due on March 31, 2020 and the Second Tranche Convertible Debentures, which total $850,000, would have been due December 31, 2020. The sole remaining non-convertible Debenture in the amount of $50,000 would have been due March 31, 2020. However, the Company is in default with respect to interest payments due under the Debenture agreements in the amount of $427,081 and as a result, the Debentures payable are reported as current liabilities.

 

On or about October 25, 2016, certain Debenture holders sued the Company for failing to make payments due under the terms of the Debentures. On or about December 12, 2019, the parties entered into a Settlement Agreement and on January 13, 2020, the parties filed a Stipulation of Voluntary Dismissal with Prejudice in the case.

The total amount advanced was $67,628.

 

The Chairman is one of the secured parties under that Land Deed of Trust recorded on September 26, 2014 in Hancock County, Mississippi, to secure Tranche I and Tranche II Debentures issued by the Company in 2014. Under paragraph 5 of the Land Deed of Trust, a secured party who advances sums for taxes due on the Property is secured by the same Land Deed of Trust, but only at that interest rate specified in the note representing the primary indebtedness, namely 4% per annum.

 

The Chairman advanced the $67,628 on condition that: (i) the advance constitute a lien with interest at 4% per annum under that Land Deed of Trust recorded September 26, 2014; (ii) he be paid additional interest of 11% per annum on the amount advanced and owing and that the full 11% interest per annum is payable during any calendar year in which all or part of the amount advanced and owing or interest due thereon remains unpaid; (iii) this additional interest obligation be treated as a separate and secured debt of the Company, to be evidenced by a separate note and is secured with a separate and third lien to be placed on the Property (hereafter “the Third Lien”); (iv) the entire obligation will be treated as an advance to be paid out of any subsequent incoming financing obtained by the Company or any amounts recovered by the Company from a defendant in that collection action brought by the Company in the Circuit Court of Montgomery County, Maryland; and (v) he be indemnified for any losses sustained on the sale of that common stock sold to cover the payment of real estate property taxes and any credit card fees associated with payment (“the indemnification”). The Chairman identified the common stock sold and provided the Company with the documentation required to document the sale of said stock and to calculate the loss, if any, on said stock. The fair value measurement of the derivative indemnification liability at December 31, 2021 was developed using Level 1 inputs, which was valued at $0. On February 4, 2022, the Board of Directors entered into an agreement with the Chairman to issue 35,000 shares of common stock of the Company to the Chairman to repurchase the indemnification. See Note 11.

The Chairman identified the common stock sold and provided the Company with the documentation required to document the sale of said stock and to calculate the loss, if any, on said stock. On February 4, 2022, the Board of Directors entered into an agreement with the Chairman to issue 35,000 shares of common stock of the Company to the Chairman to repurchase the indemnifications.

The Company has accrued $542,575 and $429,750 on the current delinquent filings as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company intends to bring its ESOP-required filings current and when current, will attempt to enroll in a voluntary compliance program with the Department of Labor with respect to any penalties or fines incurred. However, there can be no assurance the Company will be able to enroll in any such program or obtain a reduction of the fines and penalties that may be due.

The Company believes this Agreement is no longer in effect. However, there can be no assurance that CAMC will not attempt to maintain otherwise which would lead to litigation.

 

Letter of Intent with an Unrelated Third Party

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Financial Results

 

Forward Looking Statements

 

This section should be read together with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto, for the year ended December 31, 2022 included with our annual report filed on Form 10-K.

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for which the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about our plans, objectives, representations and intentions and are not historical facts and typically are identified by use of terms such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “plans,” “intends,” “objectives,” “goals,” “aims,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “possible,” “seeks,” “may,” “could,” “should,” “might,” “likely,” “enable,” or similar words or expressions, as well as statements containing phrases such as “in our view,” “there can be no assurance,” “although no assurance can be given,” or “there is no way to anticipate with certainty.” These statements include, among other things, statements regarding our ability to implement our business plan and business strategy, our ability to obtain financing to sustain the Company, our ability to finance any future development, construction or operations, our ability to attract key personnel, and our ability to operate profitably in the future. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties which could cause our actual results to differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements. In evaluating these forward-looking statements, you should consider risks and uncertainties relating to various factors, including, but not limited to, financing, licensing, construction and development, competition, legal actions, federal, state, county and/or city government actions, general financing conditions, and general economic conditions.

 

The Company’s actual results may differ significantly from results projected in the forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to revise or update forward-looking statements, except as required by law. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

 

Throughout this Annual Report references to “we,” “our,” “us,” “Diamondhead Casino Corporation,” the “Company,” and similar terms refer to Diamondhead Casino Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise.

 

The Company’s current priority is the development of a casino resort on its Property located in Diamondhead, Mississippi. The Company’s management, financial resources and assets will be devoted towards the development of this Property. There can be no assurance that the property can be developed or, that if developed, that the project will be successful.

 

Liquidity

 

The Company has incurred continued losses over the years and certain conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has had no operations since it ended its gambling cruise ship operations in 2000. Since that time, the Company has concentrated its efforts on the development of its Diamondhead, Mississippi Property. The development of the Diamondhead Property is dependent on obtaining the necessary capital, through equity and/or debt financing, unilaterally, or in conjunction with one or more partners, to master plan, design, obtain permits for, construct, staff, open, and operate a casino resort. In the past, the Company has been able to sustain itself through various short term borrowings, however, as of September 30, 2023, the Company had cash of $25,112, while accounts payable and accrued expenses totaled $13,488,928 and the Company had an accumulated deficit of $46,678,350 In addition, the Company reported a net loss applicable to common shareholders of $1,326,975 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Therefore, in order to sustain itself, it is imperative that the Company secure a source of funds to provide further working capital.

 

Management of the Company believes it will be difficult to secure suitable financing that would allow it to continue to pursue ultimate development of the Property. Therefore, on March 25, 2019, Mississippi Gaming Corporation entered into a brokerage agreement with an unrelated third party to seek a buyer for all or part of the Property or, alternatively, to seek a joint venture partner for the project. The brokerage agreement has expired, but the Company continues to work with the broker on the same terms that applied under the contract.

 

The above conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and its ability to generate cash to meet its cash requirements for the following twelve months as of the date of this Form 10-Q.

Financial Results and Analysis

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred net losses applicable to common stockholders of $1,326,975 and $1,316,710 respectively. The increase in the loss, which totaled $10,265 is primarily due to an increase in administrative and general expenses.

 

Administrative and general expenses incurred totaled $589,744 and $552,467 for the nine months ending September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The table below depicts the major categories comprising these expenses:

 

   September 30, 
   2023   2022 
Payroll and Related Taxes  $225,000   $225,000 
Director Fees   67,500    67,500 
Professional Services   121,027    86,518 
Rents and Insurances   65,797    63,584 
Fines and Penalties   97,700    84,950 
All Other Expenses   12,720    24,915 
Total General and Administrative Expenses  $589,744   $552,467 

 

Other Income and Expense

 

Interest expense incurred totaled $609,968 and $636,829 for the nine months ending September 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively, a decrease of $26,861. The decrease in 2023 is primarily attributable to non-interest bearing borrowings and amortization of debt discount during the last three quarters of 2022 and the three quarters of 2023.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

Management Agreement

 

On June 19, 1993, two subsidiaries of the Company, Casino World Inc. and Mississippi Gaming Corporation, entered into a Management Agreement with Casinos Austria Maritime Corporation (CAMC). Subject to certain conditions, under the Management Agreement, CAMC would operate, on an exclusive basis, all of the Company’s proposed dockside gaming casinos in the State of Mississippi, including any operation fifty percent (50%) or more of which is owned by the Company or its affiliates. Unless terminated earlier pursuant to the provisions of the Agreement, the Agreement terminates five years from the first day of actual Mississippi gaming operations and provides for the payment of an annual operational term management fee of 1.2% of all gross gaming revenues between zero and $100,000,000; plus 0.75% of gross gaming revenue between $100,000,000 and $140,000,000; plus 0.5% of gross gaming revenue above $140,000,000; plus two percent of the net gaming revenue between zero and $25,000,000; plus three percent of the net gaming revenue above twenty-five million dollars $25,000,000. The Company believes this Agreement is no longer in effect. However, there can be no assurance that CAMC will not attempt to maintain otherwise which would lead to litigation.

 

Related Party

 

In July 2017, the Chairman of the Board paid $67,628 for all property taxes due, together with all interest due thereon, to Hancock County, Mississippi for an approximate 400-acre tract of land (“the Diamondhead Property”), owned by Mississippi Gaming Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In 2018, the Chairman advanced additional funds totaling $205,250 to the Company. In 2019, the Chairman advanced additional funds totaling $125,396 to the Company. In 2020, the Chairman advanced additional funds totaling $69,679 to the Company. The conditions of the notes under which the Chairman agreed to make the foregoing payments and advances are discussed in full detail in Note 8 of the attached unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

22

 

 

Of particular note to these conditions is that the Company agreed to indemnify the Chairman for losses, if any, sustained on the sale of certain common stock sold in an unrelated company to pay the property taxes due on the Diamondhead, Mississippi Property and to lend additional funds to the Company. On February 4, 2022, the Board of Directors entered into an agreement with the Chairman to issue 35,000 shares of common stock of the Company to the Chairman to repurchase the indemnification. This repurchase eliminated any risk to the Company arising from the indemnification which could have been material. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded stock-based compensation of $0 for the fair value of these shares, which have not yet been issued as of the issuance date of the attached unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

There are no other off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues and expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources, that are material to our stockholders.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

 

As a smaller reporting company, information under this item is not required to be presented.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

In connection with the preparation of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, who also serves as Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2023. Disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that the information that we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s Rules and Forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on the results of this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2023.

 

The management, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with existing policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

23

 

 

The Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer conducted, under the supervision of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, commonly referred to as the “COSO” criteria. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer concluded that material weaknesses over financial reporting existed as of September 30, 2023. Management identified the following two material weaknesses that have caused management to conclude that, as of September 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures, and our internal control over financial reporting, were not effective at the reasonable assurance level:

 

  1. We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions.

 

 

2. We have not been timely in our financial reporting functions. Management has not developed and effectively communicated its accounting policies and procedures. This has resulted in inconsistent practices with regards to complex debt and equity transactions.

 

The Company has designed and instituted policies and procedures to eliminate and/or mitigate the foregoing.

 

As a result of the material weaknesses identified above, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 2023. The Company has initiated policies and procedures to address the above weakness. While segregation of duties is very difficult in a small company, the Company intends to file timely reports and utilize third-party consultants to ensure effective financial reporting and disclosures are met.

 

To address the material weaknesses identified, management performed additional analyses and other procedures to ensure that the consolidated financial statements included herein fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Accordingly, we believe that the financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) during the quarter ended September 30, 2023 that are expected to materially affect, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On March 31, 2023, the Company entered into a Letter of Intent with an unrelated third party. The Agreement provided for purchases of Common Stock of Diamondhead Casino Corporation and purchases of Common Stock of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Mississippi Gaming Corporation. As of the issuance date of these financial statements, no payment has been made by the third party investor, no transactions pursuant to the Letter of Intent have occurred and no shares of common stock have been issued. The Company does not expect the Agreement to be honored.

Note 1. Organization and Business

 

Diamondhead Casino Corporation (the “Company”) owns, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Mississippi Gaming Corporation, an approximate 400-acre undeveloped property located at 7051 Interstate 10, Diamondhead, Mississippi 39525 (hereafter “the Diamondhead Property” or “the Property”). The Company’s intent was and is to construct a casino resort and other amenities on the Property unilaterally or in conjunction with one or more joint venture partners. However, the Company has been unable, to date, to obtain financing to move the project forward and/or enter into a joint venture partnership. There can be no assurance that the substantial funds required for the design and construction of the project can be obtained or that such funds can be obtained on acceptable terms. In addition, the Company has been unable to obtain financing to sustain the Company. Due to its lack of financial resources, the Company was forced to explore other alternatives, including a sale of part or all of the Property. The Company’s preference is to sell only part of the Property inasmuch as this would appear to be in the best interest of the stockholders of the Company. However, there can be no assurance the Company will be able to sell only part of the Property. The Company intends to continue to pursue a joint venture partnership and/or other financing while seeking a viable purchaser for part or all of the Property. Finally, there can be no assurance that if the requisite financing for the project were obtained and the project were constructed, that the project would be successful.

Liquidity and Going Concern

Note 2. Liquidity and Going Concern

 

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses over the past several years, has no operations, generates no operating revenues and, as reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, incurred a net loss applicable to common stockholders of $1,326,975 and $1,316,710 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 respectively. In addition, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $46,678,350 on September 30, 2023. Due to its lack of financial resources, the Company has been forced to explore other alternatives, including a sale of part or all of the Property.

 

The Company has had no operations since it ended its gambling cruise ship operations in 2000. Since that time, the Company has concentrated its efforts on the development of its Diamondhead, Mississippi property. That development is dependent upon the Company obtaining the necessary capital, through either equity and/or debt financing, unilaterally or in conjunction with one or more partners, to master plan, design, obtain permits for, construct, open, and operate a casino resort.

 

In the past, in order to raise capital to continue to pay on-going costs and expenses, the Company has borrowed funds, through Private Placements of convertible instruments as well as through other secured notes which are more fully described in Notes 5 through 10 to these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company is in default with respect to payment of both principal and interest under the terms of most of these instruments. In addition, at September 30, 2023, the Company had $13,488,928 of accounts payable and accrued expenses and $25,112 in cash on hand.

 

The above conditions raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Note 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X and the related rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, we believe that the disclosures included in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this document have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion, reflect all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation in accordance with GAAP and SEC regulations for interim financial statements. The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that we will have for any subsequent period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, attached to our annual report on Form 10-K.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Diamondhead Casino Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Land

 

Land held for development is carried at cost. Costs directly related to site development, such as licensing, permitting, engineering, and other costs, are capitalized.

 

Land development costs, which have been capitalized, consist of the following at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

 

Land  $4,934,323 
Licenses   77,000 
Engineering and costs associated with permitting   464,774 
   $5,476,097 

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurements” for financial assets and liabilities. This standard defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. The standard discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). The standard utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

 

 

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2: Input other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

 

Level 3: Unobservable input that reflects management’s own assumptions.

 

Financial instruments included in current assets and liabilities are reported at carrying value in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, which approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company reviews long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows projected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount the carrying value exceeds the fair value of such assets determined by appraisal, discounted cash flow projections, or other means. As of September 30, 2023, there was a triggering event due to recurring losses and an impairment test was conducted. However, the fair value of the long-lived assets exceeded the carrying value and the Company determined that no impairment existed at September 30, 2023.

 

Net Loss per Common Share

 

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus other potentially dilutive securities. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of diluted loss per shares since their effect would be antidilutive. Common shares outstanding consist of issued shares, including allocated and committed shares held by the ESOP trust, less shares held in treasury. Common shares outstanding excludes the 910,000 shares subject to be issued in connection with notes payables (see note 9) and 185,000 shares subject to be issued to the Chairman of the Board of Directors. (see note 11). The dilutive securities below do not include 5,055,555 potentially convertible Debentures since the requirements for possible conversion have not yet been met and may never be met.

 

The table below summarizes the components of potential dilutive securities at September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivative and Hedging (Topic 815, and Leases (Topic 841). This new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods. This pronouncement was amended under ASU 2019-10 to allow an extension on the adoption date to entities that qualify as a small reporting company. The Company has elected this extension and the effective date for the Company to adopt this standard will be for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Accordingly, the Company has adopted this standard as of January 1, 2023 and it did not have an effect on its consolidated financial statements.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

On March 27, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-01, which amends certain provisions of ASC 842 that apply to arrangements between related parties under common control. Specifically, the ASU:

 

  Offers private companies, as well as not-for-profit entities that are not conduit bond obligors, a practical expedient that gives them the option of using the written terms and conditions of a common-control arrangement when determining whether a lease exists and the subsequent accounting for the lease, including the lease’s classification
     
  Amends the accounting for leasehold improvements in common-control arrangements for all entities.

 

The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company has not completed its assessment of the standard, but does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

 

No other recent accounting pronouncements were issued by FASB that are believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

Line of Credit

 

In 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with an unrelated third party for an unsecured Line of Credit up to a maximum of $1,000,000. The Line of Credit carries an interest rate on amounts borrowed of 9% per annum. All funds originally advanced under the facility were due and payable by November 1, 2012. As an inducement to provide the facility, the lender was awarded an immediate option to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock of the Company at $1.75 per share. In addition, the lender received an option to purchase a maximum of 250,000 additional shares of common stock of the Company at $1.75 per share. The options expire following repayment in full by the Company of the amount borrowed. The Company is in default under the repayment terms of the agreement. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the unpaid principal and accrued interest due on the obligation totaled $2,280,490 and $2,213,422, respectively.

 

Convertible Notes

 

The Convertible Notes issued pursuant to the two Private Placements discussed above total $962,500 in principle and became due and payable beginning in March 2012 and extending to various dates through June 2013. As of the date of the filing of this report, all the aforementioned debt obligations remain unpaid and in default under the repayment terms of the notes. In November 2020, the Superior Court of the State of Delaware awarded Judgments in favor of certain holders of these Promissory Notes who filed suit against the Company. As a result, the Company must carry an aggregate of $486,796 (total principal and interest) as debt owed to these noteholders. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, all Notes issued had a total outstanding principal of $962,500 and accrued interest, including the additional interest awarded pursuant to the Court Judgments, of $1,120,169 and $1,043,547 respectively.

 

The table below summarizes the Company’s debt arising from the above-described sources as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

Convertible Debentures

Note 6. Convertible Debentures

 

Pursuant to a Private Placement Memorandum dated February 14, 2014 (the “Private Placement”), the Company offered up to a maximum of $3,000,000 of Collateralized Convertible Senior Debentures to accredited or institutional investors. The Offering was conducted contingent on the deposit into Escrow of the purchase price for all the Debentures offered in the principal amount of $3,000,000. The Debentures, once issued, originally bore interest at 4% per annum after 180 days, matured six years from the date of issuance, and were secured by a lien on the Company’s Mississippi property. The interest rate on these debentures was raised pursuant to subsequent agreements. The debentures were offered in three tranches as follows:

 

(a) $1,000,000 of First Tranche Collateralized Convertible Senior Debentures convertible into an aggregate of 3,333,333 shares of Common Stock of the Company at a conversion price of $.30 per share (the “First Tranche Debentures”);

 

(b) $1,000,000 of Second Tranche Collateralized Convertible Senior Debentures, convertible into an aggregate of 2,222,222 shares of Common Stock of the Company at a conversion price of $.45 per share (the “Second Tranche Debentures”); and

 

 

(c) $1,000,000 of Third Tranche Collateralized Convertible Senior Debentures, convertible into either 1,818,182 shares of Common Stock or 1,333,333 shares of Common Stock of the Company, at a conversion price of $.55 or $.75 per share depending upon certain conditions described in the Private Placement Memorandum (the “Third Tranche Debentures”).

 

The conversion rights on each issued Debenture carried an Anti-Dilution Provision. If the Company issued any shares of Common Stock or other securities after March 31, 2014 at a price per security that was less than the conversion price of a Debenture, then the Debenture would have had a new conversion price equal to the price per security that was less than the Conversion Price of the Debenture. The foregoing provision did not apply to the following:

 

(a) The issuance of any of the other Debentures in the Offering or the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of any of the Debentures in the Offering.

 

(b) The issuance of any shares of Common Stock if such issuance relates to an agreement, arrangement or grant to issue shares of Common Stock entered into by the Company prior to the Issue Date of the First Tranche Debentures in the Offering, including but not limited to, for example, previously issued convertible promissory notes, previously issued warrants, previously issued options to purchase Common Stock, or common stock vested or to be issued pursuant to a pre-existing Employee Stock Ownership Plan.

 

The Anti-Dilution Provisions with respect to a Debenture terminate the earlier of (a) the date (if ever) the Company receives an “Approval to Proceed” from the Mississippi Gaming Commission to develop a casino/hotel on the Property, (b) the date on which the Debenture is converted in full, (c) the date on which the Debenture is paid in full, or (d) the Final Maturity Date of the Debenture (as defined in the Debenture).

 

Since the issuance of the Debentures, there have been no events that would trigger the above anti-dilution provisions.

 

The First Tranche Debentures were issued on March 31, 2014. The Final Maturity Date of the First Tranche Debentures was six years from the issuance date of the Debentures, or March 31, 2020. Therefore, the anti-dilution provisions of the First Tranche Debentures have expired.

 

The Second Tranche Debentures were issued on December 31, 2014. The Final Maturity Date of the Second Tranche Debentures was six years from the issuance date of the Debentures, or December 31, 2020. Therefore, the anti-dilution provisions of the Second Tranche Debentures have expired.

 

When originally issued, in the event the Company failed to meet the conditions for conversion of the Debentures, the First Tranche Convertible Debentures, which total $950,000, would have been due on March 31, 2020 and the Second Tranche Convertible Debentures, which total $850,000, would have been due December 31, 2020. The sole remaining non-convertible Debenture in the amount of $50,000 would have been due March 31, 2020. However, the Company is in default with respect to interest payments due under the Debenture agreements in the amount of $427,081 and as a result, the Debentures payable are reported as current liabilities.

 

On or about October 25, 2016, certain Debenture holders sued the Company for failing to make payments due under the terms of the Debentures. On or about December 12, 2019, the parties entered into a Settlement Agreement and on January 13, 2020, the parties filed a Stipulation of Voluntary Dismissal with Prejudice in the case. The case was dismissed with the Court maintaining continuing jurisdiction over the Settlement Agreement.

 

In or about December 2022, the parties entered into an Amendment to Settlement Agreement. The Amendment provides, in pertinent part, as follows: that on or before March 31, 2023, the Plaintiffs would be paid the principal due under their debentures of $1.5 million, plus interest of four percent (4%) per annum on the principal due from January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2019, plus interest of six percent (6%) per annum on the principal due from January 1, 2020 through March 31, 2022, plus interest of eight percent (8%) per annum on the principle due from April 1, 2022 through the date of payment. In addition the Company agreed to pay legal costs and fees of $175,000 plus 50,000 shares of common stock. In the event payment was not made on or before March 31, 2023, judgment would be entered in the case. Post judgment interest shall only apply to the $1.5 million principle due. Total accrued interest due on all outstanding Debentures amounted to $717,473 and $617,733 at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 respectively. Payment was not made on or before March 31, 2023. On July 5, 2023, the Plaintiffs filed a Motion to Reopen the Action, Vacate Dismissal, and Enter Judgment on Consent. The Company did not object to the Motion. On September 20, 2023, the Court entered an Order Granting Plaintiffs’ Motion to Reopen this Action, Vacate Dismissal, and Compel Enforcement of the Settlement Agreement and entered a Consent Judgment previously agreed to by the Company.

Bank Credit Facility

 

Wells Fargo Bank provided an unsecured credit facility of up to $15,000 to the Company. The facility required a variable monthly payment of amounts borrowed plus interest, which was applied at 11.24% on direct charges and 24.99% on any cash advanced through the facility. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, a principal balance of $18,004 remained outstanding on the facility. The lending bank has since cancelled privileges under the facility for non-payment.

 

Interest Bearing Advances

 

In 2016, the Company received cash advances totaling $47,500 from seven lenders which included $22,500 from third parties (see Note 8 for related party advances). The proceeds from the cash advances were earmarked for the payment of accounting and auditing fees and other expenses required to file the Company’s Form 10-Q. On August 25, 2016, the Company issued a Note to the foregoing lenders, which matures four years from the date of issuance and bears interest at 8% per annum, with a full year of interest accruing in any year in which the advance remains unpaid. Accrued interest due on the above notes amounted to $16,400 and $14,200 at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

 

On February 2, 2017, the Company borrowed $25,000 from an unrelated third party. The Note carries an annual interest rate of approximately 12.5% and is past due. The Company is in default and as such, the lender may increase the interest rate due by an amount of up to 3% per annum in excess of the rate then otherwise applicable. The Company does not have the funds to repay the advance. The President of the Company has agreed to personally secure the note with an assignment of proceeds due to her under the first lien on the Property. Accrued interest on this obligation amounted to $20,856 and $18,493 at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

 

Of the amounts discussed above, $65,504 in short-term notes and advances are in default under the original agreed to terms.

In 2016, the Company received cash advances totaling $47,500 from seven lenders which included $25,000 from three Current Directors of the Company (see Note 7). The proceeds from the cash advances were earmarked for the payment of accounting and auditing fees and other expenses required to file the Company’s Form 10-Q. On August 25, 2016, the Company issued a Note to the foregoing lenders, which matures four years from the date of issuance and bears interest at 8% per annum, with a full year of interest accruing in any year in which the advance remains unpaid. Accrued interest due on the above notes amounted to $16,000 and $14,000 at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. These amounts are included in current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. This note is secured by a second lien on the Diamondhead Property.

 

 

In the third quarter of 2016, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company loaned the Company $90,000. On August 25, 2016, the Company issued a Note to the Chairman of the Board. The Note bears interest at 14% per annum effective August 1, 2016 and matures four years from the date of issuance.

The total amount advanced was $67,628.

 

The Chairman is one of the secured parties under that Land Deed of Trust recorded on September 26, 2014 in Hancock County, Mississippi, to secure Tranche I and Tranche II Debentures issued by the Company in 2014. Under paragraph 5 of the Land Deed of Trust, a secured party who advances sums for taxes due on the Property is secured by the same Land Deed of Trust, but only at that interest rate specified in the note representing the primary indebtedness, namely 4% per annum.

 

The Chairman advanced the $67,628 on condition that: (i) the advance constitute a lien with interest at 4% per annum under that Land Deed of Trust recorded September 26, 2014; (ii) he be paid additional interest of 11% per annum on the amount advanced and owing and that the full 11% interest per annum is payable during any calendar year in which all or part of the amount advanced and owing or interest due thereon remains unpaid; (iii) this additional interest obligation be treated as a separate and secured debt of the Company, to be evidenced by a separate note and is secured with a separate and third lien to be placed on the Property (hereafter “the Third Lien”); (iv) the entire obligation will be treated as an advance to be paid out of any subsequent incoming financing obtained by the Company or any amounts recovered by the Company from a defendant in that collection action brought by the Company in the Circuit Court of Montgomery County, Maryland; and (v) he be indemnified for any losses sustained on the sale of that common stock sold to cover the payment of real estate property taxes and any credit card fees associated with payment (“the indemnification”). The Chairman identified the common stock sold and provided the Company with the documentation required to document the sale of said stock and to calculate the loss, if any, on said stock. The fair value measurement of the derivative indemnification liability at December 31, 2021 was developed using Level 1 inputs, which was valued at $0. On February 4, 2022, the Board of Directors entered into an agreement with the Chairman to issue 35,000 shares of common stock of the Company to the Chairman to repurchase the indemnification. See Note 11.

The Chairman identified the common stock sold and provided the Company with the documentation required to document the sale of said stock and to calculate the loss, if any, on said stock. On February 4, 2022, the Board of Directors entered into an agreement with the Chairman to issue 35,000 shares of common stock of the Company to the Chairman to repurchase the indemnifications.

The Company is currently delinquent in filing those documents and forms required to be filed in connection with its Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) for the year ended December 31, 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016 and 2015. The Company did not have the funds to pay professionals to prepare, audit and file these documents and forms when due. Although these required filings normally do not result in any tax due to an agency of the government, the Company could be subject to significant penalties for failure to file these forms when due. Penalties are assessed by the Department of Labor on a per diem basis from the original due dates for the required informational filings until the filings are actually made. The Company has accrued $542,575 and $429,750 on the current delinquent filings as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company intends to bring its ESOP-required filings current and when current, will attempt to enroll in a voluntary compliance program with the Department of Labor with respect to any penalties or fines incurred. However, there can be no assurance the Company will be able to enroll in any such program or obtain a reduction of the fines and penalties that may be due.

 

The Company and its subsidiaries file their federal tax return on a consolidated basis. The Company has not filed its consolidated federal tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017 and 2016.

 

The Company believes no tax will be due with these federal returns. The Company has not filed its annual reports together with its franchise tax due with the state of Delaware for 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019 and 2018. Mississippi Gaming Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, has not filed its annual reports, together with its franchise tax due, with the state of Delaware for 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019 and 2018. Casino World, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, has not filed its annual reports, together with its franchise tax due, with the state of Delaware for 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017 and 2016. Mississippi Gaming Corporation has not filed its corporate income and franchise tax returns, together with the tax due, with the state of Mississippi for 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, or 2018.

Management Agreement

 

On June 19, 1993, two subsidiaries of the Company, Casino World Inc. and Mississippi Gaming Corporation, entered into a Management Agreement with Casinos Austria Maritime Corporation (CAMC). Subject to certain conditions, under the Management Agreement, CAMC would operate, on an exclusive basis, all of the Company’s proposed dockside gaming casinos in the State of Mississippi, including any operation fifty percent (50%) or more of which is owned by the Company or its affiliates.

 

 

Unless terminated earlier pursuant to the provisions of the Agreement, the Agreement terminates five years from the first day of actual Mississippi gaming operations and provides for the payment of an annual operational term management fee of 1.2% of all gross gaming revenues between zero and $100,000,000; plus 0.75% of gross gaming revenue between $100,000,000 and $140,000,000; plus 0.5% of gross gaming revenue above $140,000,000; plus two percent of the net gaming revenue between zero and $25,000,000; plus three percent of the net gaming revenue above twenty-five million dollars $25,000,000. The Company believes this Agreement is no longer in effect. However, there can be no assurance that CAMC will not attempt to maintain otherwise which would lead to litigation.

 

Letter of Intent with an Unrelated Third Party

 

On March 31, 2023, the Company entered into a Letter of Intent with an unrelated third party. The Agreement provided for purchases of Common Stock of Diamondhead Casino Corporation and purchases of Common Stock of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Mississippi Gaming Corporation. As of the issuance date of these financial statements, no payment has been made by the third party investor, no transactions pursuant to the Letter of Intent have occurred and no shares of common stock have been issued. The Company does not expect the Agreement to be honored.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and in conformity with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X and the related rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, we believe that the disclosures included in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this document have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion, reflect all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation in accordance with GAAP and SEC regulations for interim financial statements. The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that we will have for any subsequent period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, attached to our annual report on Form 10-K.

 

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Diamondhead Casino Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Estimates

Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Land

Land

 

Land held for development is carried at cost. Costs directly related to site development, such as licensing, permitting, engineering, and other costs, are capitalized.

 

Land development costs, which have been capitalized, consist of the following at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

 

Land  $4,934,323 
Licenses   77,000 
Engineering and costs associated with permitting   464,774 
   $5,476,097 

 

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurements” for financial assets and liabilities. This standard defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. The standard discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). The standard utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

 

 

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2: Input other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

 

Level 3: Unobservable input that reflects management’s own assumptions.

 

Financial instruments included in current assets and liabilities are reported at carrying value in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, which approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

 

Long-Lived Assets

Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company reviews long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows projected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount the carrying value exceeds the fair value of such assets determined by appraisal, discounted cash flow projections, or other means. As of September 30, 2023, there was a triggering event due to recurring losses and an impairment test was conducted. However, the fair value of the long-lived assets exceeded the carrying value and the Company determined that no impairment existed at September 30, 2023.

 

Net Loss per Common Share

Net Loss per Common Share

 

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus other potentially dilutive securities. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of diluted loss per shares since their effect would be antidilutive. Common shares outstanding consist of issued shares, including allocated and committed shares held by the ESOP trust, less shares held in treasury. Common shares outstanding excludes the 910,000 shares subject to be issued in connection with notes payables (see note 9) and 185,000 shares subject to be issued to the Chairman of the Board of Directors. (see note 11). The dilutive securities below do not include 5,055,555 potentially convertible Debentures since the requirements for possible conversion have not yet been met and may never be met.

 

The table below summarizes the components of potential dilutive securities at September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivative and Hedging (Topic 815, and Leases (Topic 841). This new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods. This pronouncement was amended under ASU 2019-10 to allow an extension on the adoption date to entities that qualify as a small reporting company. The Company has elected this extension and the effective date for the Company to adopt this standard will be for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Accordingly, the Company has adopted this standard as of January 1, 2023 and it did not have an effect on its consolidated financial statements.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

On March 27, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-01, which amends certain provisions of ASC 842 that apply to arrangements between related parties under common control. Specifically, the ASU:

 

  Offers private companies, as well as not-for-profit entities that are not conduit bond obligors, a practical expedient that gives them the option of using the written terms and conditions of a common-control arrangement when determining whether a lease exists and the subsequent accounting for the lease, including the lease’s classification
     
  Amends the accounting for leasehold improvements in common-control arrangements for all entities.

 

The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company has not completed its assessment of the standard, but does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

 

No other recent accounting pronouncements were issued by FASB that are believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

Other commitments description                   Unless terminated earlier pursuant to the provisions of the Agreement, the Agreement terminates five years from the first day of actual Mississippi gaming operations and provides for the payment of an annual operational term management fee of 1.2% of all gross gaming revenues between zero and $100,000,000; plus 0.75% of gross gaming revenue between $100,000,000 and $140,000,000; plus 0.5% of gross gaming revenue above $140,000,000; plus two percent of the net gaming revenue between zero and $25,000,000; plus three percent of the net gaming revenue above twenty-five million dollars $25,000,000. The Company believes this Agreement is no longer in effect. However, there can be no assurance that CAMC will not attempt to maintain otherwise which would lead to litigation.
