METALERT INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2023 AND 2022

(Unaudited)

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

During the periods covered by these financial statements, MetAlert, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”, “MetAlert”, “we”, “us”, and “our”) were engaged in business operations that design, manufacture and sell various interrelated and complementary products and services in the wearable technology and Personal Location Services marketplace. MetAlert owns 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of its two subsidiaries - Global Trek Xploration, Inc. and LOCiMOBILE, Inc.

 

Global Trek Xploration, Inc. focuses on the design, manufacturing and sales distribution of its hardware, software, and connectivity, Global Positioning System (“GPS”) and Bluetooth Low Energy (“BLE”) monitoring and tracking platform, which provides real-time tracking and monitoring of people and high valued assets. Utilizing a miniature quad-band GPRS transceiver, antenna, circuitry, battery and inductive charging pad our solutions can be customized and integrated into numerous products whose location and movement can be monitored in real time over the Internet through our 24x7 tracking portal or on a web enabled cellular telephone. Our core products and services are supported by an intellectual property (“IP”) portfolio of patents, patents pending, registered trademarks, copyrights, URLs and a library of software source code, all of which is also managed by Global Trek.

 

LOCiMOBILE, Inc., is the Companies digital platform which has been at the forefront of Smartphone application (“App”) development since 2008. With a suite of mobile applications that turn the iPhone, iPad, Android and other GPS enabled handsets into a tracking device which can be tracked from handset to handset or through our tracking portal or on any connected device with internet access. LOCiMOBILE has launched over 20 Apps across multi mobile device operating systems and continues to launch consumer and enterprise apps.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of MetAlert have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and applicable regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of financial position and results of operations have been included. Our operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts of MetAlert, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Going Concern

 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has a stockholders’ deficit of $3,505,487 and negative working capital of $3,418,734 as of March 31, 2023 and used cash in operations during the period then ended. The Company anticipates further losses in the development of its business. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional funds and implement its business plan until such time as revenues and related cash flows are sufficient to fund our operations.

 

The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm has also included explanatory language in their opinion accompanying the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company’s 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 from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. The Company’s ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of debt or equity is unknown. The ability to obtain additional financing, the successful development of the Company’s contemplated plan of operations, or its ability to achieve profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations, and there is no assurance that these can be achieved. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), (“ASC 606”). The underlying principle of ASC 606 is to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at the amount expected to be collected. ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contract(s), which include (1) identifying the contract or agreement with a customer, (2) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied.

 

The Company does not have any significant contracts with customers requiring performance beyond delivery, and contracts with customers contain no incentives or discounts that could cause revenue to be allocated or adjusted over time. Shipping and handling activities are performed before the customer obtains control of the goods and therefore represent a fulfillment activity rather than a promised service to the customer. Revenue and costs of sales are recognized when control of the products transfers to our customer, which generally occurs upon shipment from our facilities. The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied at that time.

 

All of the Company’s products are offered for sale as finished goods only, and there are no performance obligations required post-shipment for customers to derive the expected value from them.

 

The Company does not allow for returns, except for damaged products when the damage occurred pre-fulfillment. Damaged product returns have historically been insignificant. Because of this, the stand-alone nature of our products, and our assessment of performance obligations and transaction pricing for our sales contracts, we do not currently maintain a contract asset or liability balance for obligations. We assess our contracts and the reasonableness of our conclusions on a quarterly basis.

 

We derive our revenues primarily from hardware sales, subscription services fees, IP licensing and professional services fees. Hardware includes our SmartSole, Military and other Stand-Alone Devices. Subscription services revenues consist of fees from customers accessing our cloud-based software solutions and subscription or license fees for our platform. Professional services and other revenues consist primarily of fees from implementation services, configuration, data services, training and managed services related to our solutions. IP licensing is related to our agreement with Inventergy whereby we have partnered in order to monetize our IP portfolio.

 

Product sales

 

At the inception of each contract, we assess the goods and services promised in our contracts and identify each distinct performance obligation. The Company recognizes revenue upon the transfer of control of promised products or services to the customer in an amount that depicts the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to for the related products or services. For the large majority of the Company’s sales, transfer of control occurs once product has shipped and title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer.

 

Services Income

 

The Company’s software solutions are available for use as hosted application arrangements under subscription fee agreements without licensing perpetual rights to the software. Subscription fees from these applications are recognized over time on a ratable basis over the customer agreement term beginning on the date the Company’s solution is made available to the customer. Our subscription contracts are generally one to three months in length. Amounts that have been invoiced are recorded in accounts receivable and deferred revenues or revenues, depending on whether the revenue recognition criteria have been met.

 

The majority of our professional services arrangements are recognized on a time and materials basis. Professional services revenues recognized on a time and materials basis are measured monthly based on time incurred and contractually agreed upon rates. Certain professional services revenues are based on fixed fee arrangements and revenues are recognized based on the proportional performance method. In some cases, the terms of our time and materials and fixed fee arrangements may require that we defer the recognition of revenue until contractual conditions are met. Data services and training revenues are generally recognized as the services are performed.

IP Licensing Revenue

 

Licensing revenue recorded by the Company relates exclusively to the Company’s License and Partnership agreement with Inventergy which provides for ongoing royalties based on monetization of IP licenses. The Company recognizes revenue for royalties under ASC 606, which provides revenue recognition constraints by requiring the recognition of revenue at the later of the following: 1) sale or usage of the products or 2) satisfaction of the performance obligations. The Company has satisfied its performance obligations and therefore recognizes licensing revenue when the sales to which the license(s) relate are completed. During the periods ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, the Company did not recognize any licensing revenue.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

We extend credit based on our evaluation of the customer’s financial condition. We carry our accounts receivable at net realizable value. We monitor our exposure to losses on receivables and maintain allowances for potential losses or adjustments. We determine these allowances by (1) evaluating the aging of our receivables; and (2) reviewing high-risk customers financial condition. Past due receivable balances are written off when our internal collection efforts have been unsuccessful in collecting the amount due. Our allowance for doubtful accounts was $12,431 as of March 31, 2023 and $12,431 as of December 31, 2022. The allowance fully reserves our accounts receivable balances over 90 days.

 

Shipping and Handling Costs

 

Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

 

Product Warranty

 

The Company’s warranty policy provides repair or replacement of products (excluding GPS Shoe devices) returned for defects within ninety days of purchase. The Company’s warranties are of an assurance-type and come standard with all Company products to cover repair or replacement should product not perform as expected. Provisions for estimated expenses related to product warranties are made at the time products are sold. These estimates are established using historical information about the nature, frequency and average cost of warranty claim settlements as well as product manufacturing and recovery from suppliers. Management actively studies trends of warranty claims and takes action to improve product quality and minimize warranty costs. The Company estimates the actual historical warranty claims coupled with an analysis of unfulfilled claims to record a liability for specific warranty purposes. As of March 31, 2023 and 2022, products returned for repair or replacement have been immaterial. Accordingly, a warranty liability has not been deemed necessary.

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the accompanying unaudited financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates include, but are not limited to, estimates related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation, tangible and intangible long-term asset valuation, warranty and other obligations and commitments. Estimates are updated on an ongoing basis and are evaluated based on historical experience and current circumstances. Changes in facts and circumstances in the future may give rise to changes in these estimates which may cause actual results to differ from current estimates.

 

Fair Value Estimates

 

Pursuant to the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 820, “Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, the Company records its financial assets and liabilities at fair value. ASC No. 820 provides a framework for measuring fair value, clarifies the definition of fair value and expands disclosures regarding fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date. ASC No. 820 establishes a three-tier hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:

 

  Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
     
  Level 2 - Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level 1) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the asset/liability’s anticipated life.
     
  Level 3 - Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.

 

The carrying values for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, investment in marketable securities, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to their short maturities. The carrying values of notes payable and other financing obligations approximate their fair values because interest rates on these obligations are based on prevailing market interest rates.

 

Concentrations

 

We currently rely on one manufacturer to supply us with our GPS SmartSole and one manufacturer to supply us with the GPS device included in the GPS SmartSole. The loss of either of these manufacturers could severely impede our ability to manufacture the GPS SmartSole.

 

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had four customers representing approximately 29%, 29%, 15% and 14% of sales, respectively, and three customers representing approximately 14%, 8%, and 7% of total accounts receivable, respectively. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had three customers representing approximately 40%, 26% and 13% of sales, respectively, and four customers representing approximately 15%, 14%, 12% and 10% of total accounts receivable.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for share-based awards to employees and nonemployees directors and consultants in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation., and under the recently issued guidance following FASB’s pronouncement, ASU 2018-07, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. Under ASC 718, and applicable updates adopted, share-based awards are valued at fair value on the date of grant and that fair value is recognized over the requisite service, or vesting, period. The Company values its equity awards using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and accounts for forfeitures when they occur.

Marketable Securities

 

The Company’s securities investments that are acquired and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are recorded at fair value based on quoted market price (level 1) on the balance sheet in current assets, with the change in fair value during the period included in earnings. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the fair value of our investment in marketable securities was $649 and $683, respectively.

 

Derivative Liabilities

 

Our derivative instrument liabilities are re-valued at the end of each reporting period, with changes in the fair value of the derivative liability recorded as charges or credits to income, in the period in which the changes occur. For bifurcated conversion options that are accounted for as derivative instrument liabilities, we determine the fair value of these instruments using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This model requires assumptions related to the remaining term of the instrument and risk-free rates of return, our current Common Stock price and expected dividend yield, and the expected volatility of our Common Stock price over the life of the option.

 

At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the balance of the derivative liabilities was $0. It was determined at December 31, 2020 that the Preferred A shareholders having the majority vote, can agree to increase the number of authorized shares, if needed, to settle any convertible debt, and thus the liability is $0.

 

Net Loss Per Common Share

 

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Shares of restricted stock are included in the basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding from the time they vest. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued. Shares of restricted stock are included in the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding from the date they are granted unless they are antidilutive. Diluted loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. The following potentially dilutive shares were excluded from the shares used to calculate diluted earnings per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive:

Total   84,566,448    72,130,699 

 

Segments

 

The Company operates in one segment for the manufacture and distribution of its products. In accordance with the “Segment Reporting” Topic of the ASC, the Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer and President, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. Existing guidance, which is based on a management approach to segment reporting, establishes requirements to report selected segment information quarterly and to report annually entity-wide disclosures about products and services, major customers, and the countries in which the entity holds material assets and reports revenue. All material operating units qualify for aggregation under “Segment Reporting” due to their similar customer base and similarities in: economic characteristics; nature of products and services; and procurement, manufacturing and distribution processes. Since the Company operates in one segment, all financial information required by “Segment Reporting” can be found in the accompanying financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Credit Losses - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASC 326”). The standard significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets, including accounts and notes receivables. The standard will replace today’s “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model, under which companies will recognize allowances based on expected rather than incurred losses. Entities will apply the standard’s provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. As small business filer, the standard will be effective for us for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022.

 

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

(a) Paycheck Protection Program Loan

 

On April 30, 2020, the Company executed a note (the “PPP Note”) for the benefit of MUFG Union Bank, NA (the “Lender”) in the aggregate amount of $67,870 under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). The PPP is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (the “SBA”). The interest rate of the loan is 1.00% per annum and accrues on the unpaid principal balance computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. Commencing seven months after the effective date of the PPP Note, MetAlert is required to pay the Lender equal monthly payments of principal and interest as required to fully amortize any unforgiven principal balance of the loan by the two-year anniversary of the effective date of the PPP Note (the “Maturity Date”). The Maturity Date can be extended to five years if mutually agreed upon by both the Lender and MetAlert. The PPP Note contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, making materially false or misleading representations to the SBA or the Lender, or breaching the terms of the PPP Note. The occurrence of an event of default may result in the repayment of all amounts outstanding under the PPP Note, collection of all amounts owing from MetAlert, or filing suit and obtaining judgment against MetAlert. Under the terms of the CARES Act, PPP loan recipients can apply for and be granted forgiveness for all or a portion of the loan granted under the PPP. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations, based on the use of loan proceeds for payment of payroll costs and any payments of mortgage interest, rent, and utilities. Recent modifications to the PPP by the U.S. Treasury and Congress have extended the time period for loan forgiveness beyond the original eight-week period, making it possible for MetAlert to apply for forgiveness of its PPP loan. No assurance can be given that MetAlert will be successful in obtaining forgiveness of the loan in whole or in part, as such the Company has moved the PPP Loan into short-term liabilities, until further instructions are received. The Company was in compliance with the terms of the PPP loan as of December 31, 2021, and has accrued interest on the loan of $1,160 as of December 31, 2021.

 

15
 

 

During the period ended March 31, 2022, the Company received notification that the loan was forgiven, and as such, $68,870 of principal has been recognized on the income statement under other income, as of March 31, 2022.

 

(b) Economic Injury Disaster Loan

 

On June 10, 2020, the Company executed a secured loan with the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) under the Economic Injury Disaster Loan program in the amount of $150,000. The loan is secured by all tangible and intangible assets of the Company and payable over 30 years at an interest rate of 3.75% per annum. Installment payments, including principal and interest, started in December 2022. As part of the loan, the Company also received an advance of $10,000 from the SBA. While the SBA refers to this program as an advance, it was written into law as a grant. This means that the amount given through this program does not need to be repaid and has been recognized as Other Income.

 

As of March 31, 2023, the Company calculated that 22 months of the 360 periods on the 30-year loans should be considered short-term, and as such moved $9,153 to short-term liabilities, and has accrued interest on the loan of $16,884 as of March 31, 2023, or until the Company has received more definitive correspondence related to any potential forgiveness.

 

10. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Convertible Notes Due to Related Parties

 

During the period ended December 31, 2022, the Company relieved the outstanding payables due to related parties by $706,248 and converted those amounts into additional notes with an aggregate amount of $706,248. As the conversion price embedded in the note agreements was below the trading price of the common stock on the dates of issuance, a beneficial conversion feature (BCF) was recognized at the date of issuance. The Company recognized a debt discount at the date of issuance in the aggregate amount of $167,339 related to the intrinsic value of beneficial conversion feature. The related parties converted $108,602 of debt for 4,269,600 shares of common stock. Additionally, the Company’s executives transferred $100,000 of their outstanding employee notes for cash to a third party, which lowered the related party notes and increased the convertible note balance by $100,000. The transferred notes had no change in terms, thus resulting in no gain or loss on the extinguishment related to the transfer of debt, making the outstanding balance on the related party notes on December 31, 2022 as $1,206,738, net of debt discounts. During the period ending March 31, 2023 another $40,000 of employee notes and $2,696 of accrued interest were converted for 4,269,600 in common stock, leaving a balance on the related party notes on March 31, 2023 of $1,187,761, net of debt discounts.

 

During the period ended December 31, 2021, the Company relieved the outstanding payables due to related parties by $200,000 and converted those amounts into additional notes with an aggregate amount of $200,000. As the conversion price embedded in the note agreements was below the trading price of the common stock on the dates of issuance, a beneficial conversion feature (BCF) was recognized at the date of issuance. The Company recognized a debt discount at the date of issuance in the aggregate amount of $38,000 related to the intrinsic value of beneficial conversion feature. Additionally, the Company’s executives transferred $70,000 of their outstanding employee notes for cash to a third party, which lowered the related party notes and increased the convertible note balance by $70,000. The transferred notes had no change in terms, thus resulting in no gain or loss on the extinguishment related to the transfer of debt, making the outstanding balance on the related party notes on December 31, 2021 as $976,546, net of debt discounts.

 

Accrued wages and costs - In order to preserve cash for other working capital needs, various officers, members of management, employees and directors agreed to defer portions of their wages and sometimes various out-of pocket expenses since 2011. As of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the Company owed $83,733 and $26,948, respectively, for such deferred wages and other expenses owed for other services which are included in the accrued expenses – related parties on the accompanying balance sheet.

11. DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

 

Under authoritative guidance used by the FASB on determining whether an instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own stock, instruments which do not have fixed settlement provisions are deemed to be derivative instruments. The Company has issued certain convertible notes which conversion prices are based on a future market price. However, since the number of shares to be issued is not explicitly limited, the Company is unable to conclude that enough authorized and unissued shares are available to share settle the conversion option. As a result, the conversion option is classified as a liability and bifurcated from the debt host and accounted for as a derivative liability in accordance with ASC 815 and will be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations.

 

At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the balance of the derivative liabilities was $0. It was determined at December 31, 2020 that the Preferred A shareholders having the majority vote, can agree to increase the number of authorized shares, if needed, to settle any convertible debt, and thus the liability is $0.

 

12. EQUITY

 

The Company has 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized. From this pool the following preferred shares have been classified as:

 

Preferred Stock – Series A

 

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company authorized 1,000,000 of Series A preferred shares, which shares have voting rights equal to two-thirds of all the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, shall be entitled to vote on all matters of the corporation, and shall have the majority vote of the board of directors. The subject preferred stock lacks any dividend rights, does not have liquidation preference, and is not convertible into common stock. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company issued one million shares to certain officers and board members. The Company retained a third-party valuation firm whose input was utilized in determining the related per share valuation of the preferred shares. Based on Management’s assessment and the valuation report, the fair value of the preferred shares was determined to be $0.0463 per share or an aggregate of $46,363. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, 100,000 shares (1,539 with the reverse stock split), were returned to treasury and of the 900,000 shares (13,846 after the reverse stock split) all remain outstanding as of March 31, 2023.

 

At December 31, 2020 is was determined that the Preferred A shareholders having the majority vote, can agree to increase the number of authorized shares, if needed, to settle any convertible debt, and thus any derivative liabilities are not necessary to reserve for this.

 

Preferred Stock – Series B

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company authorized 10,000 shares of preferred stock to be designated available for Series B preferred shares that have a value of $1,000 each and are convertible into common shares at fixed price of $0.0025. Holders shall be entitled to receive, and the Company shall pay, dividends on shares of Series B Preferred Stock equal (on an as-if-converted-to-Common-Stock basis) to and in the same form as dividends actually paid on shares of the Common Stock when, as and if such dividends are paid on shares of the Company’s Common Stock. No other dividends shall be paid on shares of Series B Preferred Stock, and they shall have no voting rights and have liquidation preference. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company issued 150 Series Preferred B shares and 30,000,000 warrants to an accredited investor for their financings for an aggregate value of $150,000.

 

During the period ended December 31, 2020, the Company issued 100 Series B preferred shares and 20,000,000 warrants to an accredited investor for their financings for an aggregate value of $50,000. The Series B preferred shares and warrants shall have a fixed conversion price equal to $0.0025 of common stock, subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock. The warrants are exercisable at a price of $0.0025 per share through March 2025. The Company considered the accounting effects of the existence of the conversion feature of the Series B Preferred Stock, and the issuance of warrants at the date of issuance. In accordance with the current accounting standards, the Company determined that it should account for the fair value of the conversion feature and relative fair value of the issued warrants (up to the face amount of the Series B Preferred Stock) as a deemed dividend of $50,000 and a charge to paid in capital.

 

During the period ended December 31, 2021, the two accredited investors converted 70 Series B preferred shares into 28,000,000 common shares at the conversion price of $0.0025, leaving a balance of 180 Series B as of December 31, 2022, which with the reverse stock split leaves a balance of 2 as of December 31, 2022 and as of the period ending March 31, 2023.

Preferred Stock – Series C

 

During the period ended December 31, 2020, the Company authorized 1,000 shares of preferred stock to be designated available for Series C preferred shares that have a stated value of $1,000 each and are convertible into common shares at fixed price of $0.015. Holders shall be entitled to receive, and the Company shall pay, dividends on shares of Series C Preferred Stock equal (on an as-if-converted-to-Common-Stock basis) to and in the same form as dividends actually paid on shares of the Common Stock when, as and if such dividends are paid on shares of the Company’s Common Stock. No other dividends shall be paid on shares of Series C Preferred Stock, and they shall have no voting rights and have liquidation preference. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company had no Preferred C shares.

 

During the period ended December 31, 2020, the Company issued 150 Series C preferred shares and 10,000,000 warrants to two accredited investors for their financings for an aggregate value of $150,000.

 

During the period ended December 31, 2021, the Company issued 675 Series C preferred shares and 22,500,000 warrants to an accredited investor for their financings for an aggregate value of $675,000. The Series C preferred shares and warrants shall have a fixed conversion price equal to $0.004 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock. The warrants are exercisable through May 2024. The Company considered the accounting effects of the existence of the conversion feature of the Series C Preferred Stock, and the issuance of warrants at the date of issuance. In accordance with the current accounting standards, the Company determined that it should account for the fair value of the conversion feature and relative fair value of the issued warrants (up to the face amount of the Series C Preferred Stock) as a deemed dividend of $675,000 and a charge to paid in capital.

 

During the period ended December 31, 2021, the two accredited investors converted 150 Series C preferred shares into 10,000,000 common shares at the conversion price of $0.01, leaving a balance of 675 Series C as of December 31, 2022, which with the reverse stock split leaves a balance of 19 as of December 31, 2022 and as of the period ending March 31, 2023.

13. COMMITMENTS & CONTINGENCIES

 

Bonuses

 

The Company has an employment agreement with its CEO which, among other provisions, provide for the payment of a bonus, as determined by the Board of Directors, in amounts ranging from 15% to 50% of the executive’s yearly compensation, to be paid in cash or stock at the Company’s sole discretion, if the Company has an increase in year over year revenues and the Executive performs his duties (i) within the time frame budgeted for such duties and (ii) at or below the cost budgeted for such duties. No such bonuses were declared or accrued during the periods ending March 31, 2023 or 2022.

 

Contingencies

 

From time to time, we may be involved in routine legal proceedings, as well as demands, claims and threatened litigation that arise in the normal course of our business. The ultimate amount of liability, if any, for any claims of any type (either alone or in the aggregate) may materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. In addition, the ultimate outcome of any litigation is uncertain. Any outcome, whether favorable or unfavorable, may materially and adversely affect us due to legal costs and expenses, diversion of management attention and other factors. We expense legal costs in the period incurred. We cannot assure you that additional contingencies of a legal nature or contingencies having legal aspects will not be asserted against us in the future, and these matters could relate to prior, current or future transactions or events. As of March 31, 2023, there was no pending or threatened litigation against the Company.

 

COVID-19

 

The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business is highly uncertain and difficult to predict, as the responses that the Company, other businesses and governments are taking continue to evolve. Furthermore, capital markets and economies worldwide have also been negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and it is possible that it could cause a local and/or global economic recession. Policymakers around the globe have responded with fiscal policy actions to support the healthcare industry and economy as a whole. The magnitude and overall effectiveness of these actions remain uncertain.

 

Due to COVID-19, we have experienced some changes in our business, that have been both positive and negative. Specifically, the Company’s IP licensing business has been negatively impacted by the global financial slowdown and many courts, judges and law firms are not working at full capacity, which is creating delays in finalizing licensing agreements or litigation. We have also experienced a small percentage of subscriptions being either cancelled or requested to be put on pause, due to financial hardships. On the positive side we saw an increase in product sales specifically with medical supplies and equipment. Overall, our revenues have not been materially impacted as a whole, however there have been some shifts with certain revenue streams doing better post COVID and others doing worse.

 

The severity of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the duration and severity of the pandemic and the extent and severity of the impact on the Company’s customers, service providers and suppliers, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. As of the date of issuance of Company’s financial statements, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may in the future materially impact the Company’s financial condition, liquidity or results of operations is uncertain.

 

14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

On April 12, 2023, we entered into a convertible note agreement with an investor for $40,000, with a conversion price of $0.04 bearing an interest rate of 10%.

 

On April 26, 2023 the Company consolidated various past-due convertible promissory notes in an aggregate amount of $400,000 inclusive of interest at a 12% interest rate and with conversion rates ranging from .30 to $9.75 with an investor into a new single note. The convertible promissory note agreement bears interest at seven (6%) percent, has a one (1) year maturity date. The note may be repaid in whole or in part any time prior to maturity. The promissory note is convertible at the investor’s sole discretion, into common shares at a conversion price of $4.00.

Introduction

 

Unless otherwise noted, the terms “MetAlert, Inc.”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to the ongoing business operations of MetAlert, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Global Trek Xploration, and LOCiMOBILE, Inc.

 

Organization and Presentation

 

The Company was originally founded in 2002 as Global Trek Xploration, Inc. and, as part of a reverse merger, became publicly traded in 2008 as a 100% wholly owned subsidiary of MetAlert, Inc. (OTC Pinks: MLRT), a Nevada corporation, under its former name “Deeas Resources Inc.” The Company changed its name to GTX Corp. on March 4, 2008. In September 2022, the Company changed its name from GTX Corp to MetAlert, Inc. and effected a 1-for-65 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding stock. During the periods covered by this report, MetAlert, Inc. and its subsidiaries were engaged in business operations that design, manufacture and sell various interrelated and complementary products and services in the wearable technology and Personal Location Services marketplace. MetAlert owns 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of its two subsidiaries - Global Trek Xploration, Inc. and LOCiMOBILE, Inc.

 

Global Trek Xploration, Inc. focuses on the design, manufacturing and sales distribution of its hardware, software, and connectivity, Global Positioning System (“GPS”) and Bluetooth Low Energy (“BLE”) monitoring and tracking platform, which provides real-time tracking and monitoring of people and high valued assets.

Overview

 

As we started planning our 2023 roadmap, we worked with our suppliers to gear up our production for the 4G SmartSoles while preparing them for commercial certification. We conducted meetings with our key suppliers in order to start looking at ways to scale up production and bring down our costs, we came up with several new methods of manufacturing and a design change in the insole itself. We do not expect these proposed changes to impact our production and these improvements will run in parallel to our ongoing production, however we believe once fully implemented we could see a 10% to 18% reduction in costs and a 25% increase in production capacity. We are looking at utilizing labor across the border in Mexico for certain labor intensive processes while also looking at an entire different way to embed the electronics inside the insoles, which will not only reduce costs but add a lot more access to the electronics post production, giving our customer service team more tools to better serve our customers. As we continue to hear from our larger customers, all of this work in process is intended to best position the product for larger government and enterprise applications and contracts. After listening to many of our customers and potential new customers, we believe our new 4G platform with Wi-Fi and BLE is very much in line with current market demands and well positioned once we scale production and lower costs to take advantage of that demand. Historically the SmartSole has always been a very innovative product, but this latest version has the foundation to make it not only innovative but also ready for large scale global commercial deployment.

 

20
 

 

Throughout the quarter we continued selling down our PPE inventory to the point where we sold out of many of our products and in fact had to reorder some products just to fill orders when they came in. Overall, we did not have to take any inventory markdowns as we transitioned out of COVID and continue to be able to supply customers on an as needed basis by buying small quantities from key suppliers we have maintained good relationships with.

 

With businesses opening back up and overall general travel picking back up we saw a 4% increase in B2B sales from Q4 of 2022 in Europe. Overall revenues were down by 57% compared to the previous comparable period but we also recognized a 25% decrease in operating expenses. As we continue to ship back orders and fill new orders we expect our subscriptions to start ramping back up in the second quarter. We also saw continued demand for the new 4G SmartSoles with several thousand units forecasted over the next six months just from our international distributors.

 

Until recently, our NFC product sales have been limited and only sold direct to consumer (B2C). However, during the first quarter of 2022 we expanded our NFC sales into B2B channels and started providing NFC chips along with professional services to a startup company called Endsate. This company designs and manufactures high end sneakers embedded with NFT and NFC technology that unites the experience from digital art to physical products, which provides the ability to wear the sneakers in the metaverse. During the first quarter of 2023 we saw a 76% increase in this part of our business compared to the previous quarter.

 

On the business development front, we have not been able to find a path forward to complete the acquisition of Traktec. Under SEC rules the company being acquired must have auditable financial records for at least 2 previous years, and while conducting our due diligence we realized that their books were not kept in a way that could be easily audited. This is not uncommon with small private companies that they typically do not meet the requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB), but unfortunately that is required to complete an audit and eligible to be acquired. We are still working with their senior management team to explore other paths to work together such as a licensing deal or perhaps an asset purchase.

 

We did continue to work with our Telehealth partner Hands Free Health (HFH) which will provide real-time telehealth access via Walmart Health Virtual Care (WHVC). We expect to get everything finalized in the coming weeks and prepare for the launch of that product/service, which we expect to play a key role in the SmartSole expansion plan. As we drive towards Medicare reimbursement codes having access to a virtual doctor who could diagnose a person with Alzheimer’s or dementia would then be able to provide a prescription for the SmartSoles based on the diagnoses. This should help facilitate access to SmartSoles by people who require financial assistance.

 

There is no way to sugar coat this, our numbers were disappointing and we are being faced with many challenges, which we have little to no control over. The markets are volatile, inflation combined with lingering supply chain issues, increasing interest rates and a possible recession in the forecast, all of which is restricting access to capital.

 

However, we have weathered storms in the past, we know how to keep our expenses low, and our new 4G SmartSoles are the best product we have ever launched. There is a lot of functionality built into the platform that will attract a much wider audience than we were able to attract in the past. This means our mission to positively impact millions of lives is still strong. The product is now made in the U.S. and has better encryption, which opens up more opportunities for us to sell to government agencies. The product works outdoors and indoors, again opening up more opportunities, and several European countries have approved the product for partial or full reimbursement which we see as a possible harbinger for us in the U.S. To all our stakeholders we appreciate your loyalty and support, and we will continue to work tirelessly to navigate through these choppy waters. Thank you.

Revenues

 

Revenues were $72,693 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $168,516 for the three months ended March 31, 2022, representing a decrease of 57%, This decrease was primarily driven from transitioning out of direct-to-consumer PPE sales into our core B2B business.

 

During the period ended March 31, 2023, the Company’s customer base and revenue streams were comprised of approximately 78.43% B2B (Wholesale Distributors and Enterprise Institutions), 21.57% B2C (consumers and government agencies who bought on the behalf of consumers, through our online ecommerce platform and through Amazon, Google and iTunes), 0% IP (our monetization campaign from consulting, licensing and asserting our patents) and 0% Military and Law Enforcement.

 

During the period ended March 31, 2022, the Company’s customer base and revenue streams were comprised of approximately 71.61% B2B (Wholesale Distributors and Enterprise Institutions), 28.39% B2C (consumers and government agencies who bought on the behalf of consumers, through our online ecommerce platform and through Amazon, Google and iTunes), 0% IP (our monetization campaign from consulting, licensing and asserting our patents) and 0% Military and Law Enforcement.

 

Cost of goods sold

 

Cost of goods sold were $30,368 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $94,863 for the three months ended March 31, 2022, representing a decrease of 68%. This decrease was primarily due to the shift form COVID related PPE’s with less margins, to the higher margin 4G SmartSoles. As a result, total gross margin, increased from 44% in fiscal 2022 to 49% in fiscal 2023.

 

22
 

 

We expect our margins to increase once we start ramping up our subscriptions and licensing and sell more of our proprietary products like our SmartSoles, where we have no competition. Our overall gross margin was slightly lower in 2022, predominately because most of our revenues came from product sales which require competitive pricing, and that includes shipping charges. In order to be competitive with the major online retailers (many of them include free shipping) we had to reduce our shipping charges to be in line with competitors.

 

Wages and benefits

 

Wages and benefits stayed consistent with a 0% difference in three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to three months ended March 31, 2022.

 

Professional fees

 

Professional fees consist of costs attributable to consultants and contractors who primarily spend their time on legal, accounting, product development, business development, corporate advisory services and shareholder communications. Such costs decreased $66,637 or 68% in the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to in the three months ended March 31, 2022. Even though some professional fees have decreased as more responsibilities were transferred from outside contractors and consultants to in-house personnel. Those fees related to investor relations and business development have increased due to new products lines and the impending release of the company’s updated SmartSole products.

 

Sales and marketing expenses

 

Sales and marketing expenses decreased by 100% or $10,541 in three months ended March 31, 2023 in comparison to the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to the release of the new 4G SmartSole.

 

General and administrative

 

General and administrative costs in three months ended March 31, 2023 increased by $4,761 or 8% in comparison to the three months ended March 31, 2022, mostly due to increases in investor relations expense.

 

Other income/(expense), net

 

Other expense, net decreased 387% or $94,970 in the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. This decrease was primarily as a result of the gain of $67,870 from the forgiveness of CARE loans in Q1 2022 not realized in Q1 2023, as well as increases in interest expense, the amortization of debt discounts and financing costs.

 

Net income/(loss)

 

Net loss increased by 28% or $53,761 from Q1 2023 to Q1 2022 primarily as a result of the gain of $67,870 from the forgiveness of CARE loans in Q1 2022 not realized in Q1 2023, as well as increases in interest expense, the amortization of debt discounts and financing costs.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of March 31, 2023, we had $4,671 of cash and cash equivalents, and a working capital deficit of $3,418,734, compared to $8,534 of cash and cash equivalents and a working capital deficit of $3,233,210 as of December 31, 2022.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, our net loss was $249,146 compared to a net loss of $195,385 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Net cash used in operating activities in the three months ended March 31, 2023 and in the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $49,301 and $141,695, respectively.

 

Net cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022 was $0, respectively.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $45,437 and consisted of $65,000 received for the issuance of debt, $7,000 from the use of the line of credit, and payments to the line of credit of $26,563. Net cash provided by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $25,000 and consisted of $25,000 received for the conversion of warrants. This represents a decrease of 5% in cash provided by financing activities, which is directly related to the Company working to reduce the reliance on any outside funding.

 

Because revenues from our operations have, to date, been insufficient to fund our working capital needs, we currently rely on the cash we receive from our financing activities to fund our growth, capital expenditures and to support our working capital requirements. The sale of our products and services is expected to enhance our liquidity in 2023, although the amount of revenues we receive in 2023 still cannot be estimated.

 

Until such time as our products and services can support our working capital requirement, we expect to continue to generate revenues from our other licenses, subscriptions, international distributors, hardware sales, professional services and new customers in the pipeline. However, the amount of such revenues is unknown and is not expected to be sufficient to fund our working capital needs. For our internal budgeting purposes, we have assumed that such revenues will not be sufficient to fund all of our planned operating and other expenditures during 2023. In addition, our actual cash expenditures may exceed our planned expenditures, particularly if we invest in the development of improved versions of our existing products and technologies, and if we increase our marketing expenses. Accordingly, we anticipate that we will have to continue to raise additional capital in order to fund our operations in 2023. No assurance can be given that we will be able to obtain the additional funding we need to continue our operations.

 

In order to continue funding our growth, IP and working capital needs and new product development costs, during the first quarter of 2023 we continued to draw down on our credit line to fund purchase orders. However, no assurance can be given that the investor will provide the funding, if and when requested by us.

 

Going Concern

 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has stockholders’ deficit of $3,505,487 and negative working capital of $3,418,734 as of March 31, 2023 and used cash in operations of $49,301 during the current period then ended. A significant part of our negative working capital position at March 31, 2023 consisted of $1,107,454, of amounts due to various accredited investors of the Company for convertible promissory notes, loans and a letter of credit, net of discount. The Company anticipates further losses in the development of its business. Please see the section entitled “Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for more information regarding risks associated with our business.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e)) under the Exchange Act) that is designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

 

Based on the evaluation as of March 31, 2023, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in 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 and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

 

These are not all of the risks associated with the Company and must be used in conjunction with those disclosed in the most recent Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

 

The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business is highly uncertain and difficult to predict, as the responses that the Company, other businesses and governments are taking continue to evolve. Furthermore, capital markets and economies worldwide have also been negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and it is possible that it could cause a local and/or global economic recession. Policymakers around the globe have responded with fiscal policy actions to support the healthcare industry and economy as a whole. The magnitude and overall effectiveness of these actions remain uncertain.

 

Due to COVID-19, we have experienced some changes in our business, that have been both positive and negative. Specifically, the Company’s IP licensing business has been negatively impacted by the global financial slowdown and many courts, judges and law firms are not working at full capacity, which is creating delays in finalizing licensing agreements or litigation. We have also experienced a small percentage of subscriptions being either cancelled or requested to be put on pause, due to financial hardships. On the positive side we saw an increase in product sales specifically with medical supplies and equipment. Overall, our revenues have not been materially impacted as a whole, however there have been some shifts with certain revenue streams doing better post COVID and others doing worse.

 

25
 

 

The severity of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the duration and severity of the pandemic and the extent and severity of the impact on the Company’s customers, service providers and suppliers, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. As of the date of issuance of Company’s financial statements, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may in the future materially impact the Company’s financial condition, liquidity or results of operations is uncertain.
