2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions
to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain
information or footnote disclosures normally included in condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP
have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do
not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations,
or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments,
consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial position,
operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2021, as filed with the SEC on August 31, 2021. The interim results for the nine months ended
February 28, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending May 31, 2022 or for any future interim
periods.
Correction
of Previously Issued Financial Statements
The
accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended February 28, 2021 have been corrected
for a reclassification of depreciation expense of $78,093 and $151,342, respectively, to cost of goods sold related to assets utilized
in the production of inventory. The Company assessed the materiality of the misstatement quantitatively and qualitatively and has concluded
that the correction of the classification error is immaterial to the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. As a result
of the correction, cost of goods sold for the three months ended February 28, 2021 increased from $108,187 to $186,280 with a corresponding
decrease of general and administrative expenses, resulting in a decrease to gross profit from $320,292 to $242,199. For the nine months
ended February 28, 2021, cost of goods sold increased from $216,355 to $367,697, with a corresponding decrease of general and administrative
expenses, resulting in a decrease to gross profit from $709,271 to $557,929. The correction had no impact on loss from operations and
net loss.
Emerging
Growth Company
Section
102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) exempts emerging growth companies from being
required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a registration
statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), declared effective or do not have a class
of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), are required to comply
with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition
period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable.
The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it
has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised
standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard.

Basis
of Consolidation
The
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the operations of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, its 76%
owned subsidiary (Simplicity One Brasil Ltda), its 79% owned subsidiaries (Simplicity Happy Valley, LLC and Simplicity Redmond, LLC),
and its 51% owned subsidiary (Simplicity El Paso, LLC).
All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Cash
and cash equivalents
The
Company considers short-term interest-bearing investments with initial maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The
Company has no cash equivalents as of February 28, 2022 and May 31, 2021.
Concentration
of Credit Risk
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.
Cash and cash equivalents in a financial institution, which at times, may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000.
The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such
accounts through February 28, 2022.
Financial
Instruments
The
fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,”
approximates the carrying amounts represented in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s 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 condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue
Recognition
In
accordance with ASC 606, Revenues from Contracts with Customers, the
Company recognizes revenue when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied. Product sales
occur once control is transferred upon delivery to the customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects
to receive in exchange for transferring goods and services. Our revenue is derived from the three sources listed below.
The
following describes principal activities, separated by major product or service, from which the Company generates its revenues:
Company-owned Stores and Other
The
Company-owned stores principally generate revenue from retail esports gaming centers. Revenues from Company-owned stores are recognized
when the products are delivered, or the service is provided. Company-owned stores are typically in shopping malls with typical retail
hours of operations. After hours, the Company also mines for crypto currency using the computer equipment at the company-owned stores.
Crypto mining revenue is recognized as the mining occurs,
Franchise
Revenues
Franchise
revenues consist of royalties, fees and initial license fee income. Franchise royalties are based on six percent of franchise store sales
after a minimum level of sales occur and are recognized as sales occur. Any royalty reductions, including waivers or those offered as
part of a new store development incentive or as incentive for other behaviors, are recognized at the same time as the related royalty,
as they are not separately distinguishable from the full royalty rate. Franchise royalties are billed on a monthly basis.
The
Company recognizes initial franchise license fee revenue when the Company has performed substantially all the services required in the
franchise agreement. Fees received that do not meet these criteria are recorded as deferred revenues until earned. The pre-opening services
provided to franchisees do not contain separate and distinct performance obligations from the franchise right; thus, the fees collected
will be amortized on a straight-line basis beginning at the store opening date through the term of the franchise agreement, which is
typically 10 years. Franchise license renewal fees, which generally occur every 10 years, are billed before the renewal date. Fees received
for future license renewal periods are amortized over the life of the renewal period.

ESPORTS AND GAMING COMPANY
NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
The
Company offers various incentive programs for franchisees including royalty incentives, new store opening incentives (i.e., development
incentives) and other support initiatives. Royalties and franchise fees sales are reduced to reflect any royalty incentives earned or
granted under these programs that are in the form of discounts.
Commissary
sales are comprised of gaming equipment and supplies sold to franchised stores and are recognized as revenue upon shipment or delivery
of the related products to the franchisees. Payments are generally due within 30 days.
Fees
for information services, including software maintenance fees, marketing fees and website maintenance, graphic and promotion fees are
recognized as revenue as such services are provided.
Esports
Revenue
Esports
is a form of competition using video games. Most commonly, esports takes the form of organized, single player and multiplayer video game
tournaments or leagues, particularly between professional players, individually or as teams. Revenues from Esports revenues are recognized
when the competition is completed, and prize money is awarded. Revenues earned from team sponsorships, prize winnings, league sponsorships,
and from the Company’s share of league revenues are included in esports revenue.
Deferred
Revenues
Deferred
revenues are classified as current or long-term based on when management estimates the revenues will be recognized.
The
Company receives payments from franchisees in advance of all performance obligations having been met, including but not limited to franchise
locations being opened. As certain conditions agreed to in franchise agreements are performed, revenues are recognized.
During
the quarter the Company entered into a consulting agreement to provide services to a third party interested in opening a video games
related store. The third party paid for such services and the Company has deferred this revenue until its obligations are fulfilled.
These operating funds are included in the current portion of deferred revenues on the Balance Sheet.
Deferred
costs include commissions paid to brokers related to the sale of specific new franchises which have not met revenue recognition criteria
as of February 28, 2022. These costs are recognized in the same period as the initial franchise fee revenue is recognized.

Accounts
Receivable
The
Company estimates the allowance for doubtful accounts based on an analysis of specific customers (i.e., franchisees), taking into consideration
the age of past due accounts and an assessment of the customer’s ability to pay. Accounts receivable are written off against the
allowance when management determines it is probable the receivable is worthless. Customer account balances with invoices dated over 90
days old are considered delinquent and considered in the allowance assessment. The Company performs credit evaluations of its customers
and, generally, requires no collateral. As of February 28, 2022, management has recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $45,901.
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment and leasehold improvements are recorded at their historical cost. The cost of property and equipment is depreciated over
the estimated useful lives, when placed in service (ranging from 3 -5 years), of the related assets utilizing the straight-line method
of depreciation. The cost of leasehold improvements is depreciated (amortized) over the lesser of the length of the related leases or
the estimated useful lives of the assets. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed when incurred and major repairs will be capitalized
and expensed if they benefit future periods.
Intangible
Assets and Impairment
Intangible
assets that are subject to amortization are reviewed for potential impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that carrying
amounts may not be recoverable. Assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment at least annually. These costs are included
in intangible assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheet and amortized on a straight-line basis when placed into service over
their estimated useful lives of the costs, which is 2 to 10 years.
The
Company periodically reviews its intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future
cash flows is less that the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s
estimated fair value and its book value.
Goodwill
Goodwill
is the excess of our purchase cost over the fair value of the net assets of acquired businesses. We do not amortize goodwill, but we
assess our goodwill for impairment at least annually. We have assessed goodwill and qualitative considerations indicated no impairment.
Franchise
Locations
Through
PLAYlive, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, the Company has entered into franchise agreements with third parties. As of February
28, 2022, 12 franchise locations were operational in various states, including Arizona, California, Florida, Maryland, Ohio, South Carolina,
Texas and Washington.
Stock-based
Compensation
The
Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation and ASC 505-50, Equity-Based
Payments to Non-Employees. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity
instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued,
whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration
are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued and are recognized over the employees required service
period, which is generally the vesting period.

Non-employee
stock-based payments
The
Company records stock-based payments made to non-employees in accordance with FASB’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)
2018-07, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which aligns
accounting for share-based payments issued to nonemployees to that of employees under the existing guidance of Topic 718, with certain
exceptions.
Related
parties
Parties
are related to the Company if the parties, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, control, are controlled by, or
are under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the
immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal with if one
party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting
parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.
Basic
Loss Per Share
The
Company complies with accounting and disclosure requirements ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Net income (loss) - per
share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during
the period. Diluted earnings or loss per common share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income or loss available to common
stockholders by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The diluted weighted average number
of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. For this calculation
potentially dilutive securities consist primarily of warrants, outstanding options and shares into which the company’s convertible
notes payable are convertible. When the Company records a loss from operations, all potentially dilutive shares are anti-dilutive and
are consequently excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per common share.
Income
Taxes
The
Company complies with the accounting and reporting requirements of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires an
asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed
for differences between the consolidated financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable
or deductible amounts, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect
taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
ASC
Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the consolidated financial statements recognition and measurement
of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not
to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities.

Recently
Issued and Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting
standards promulgated by the FASB are subject to change. Changes in such standards may have an impact on the Company’s future financial
statements. The following is summary of recent accounting developments.
The
Company periodically reviews new accounting standards that are issued. Although some of these accounting standards may be applicable
to the Company, the Company has not identified any other new standards that it believes merit further discussion, and the Company expects
that none would have a significant impact on its financial statements.
Going
Concern, Liquidity and Management’s Plan
The
Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a
going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course
of business.
As
reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $20,586,755,
a working capital deficit of $2,548,029
and a net loss of $8,446,927
as of February 28, 2022. Management believes
that these matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months from the
issuance date of this report.
The
Company has commenced operations and generates revenue; however, the Company’s cash position may not be sufficient to support the
Company’s daily operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of private debt offerings and/or public equity
offerings. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy and its ability to generate sufficient revenue and to raise additional
funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. Should the Company fail to raise additional capital, it may be compelled to reduce
the scope of its planned future business activities.
The
ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to further implement its business
plan, to generate sufficient revenue and to raise additional funds by way of public and/or private offerings.
The
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification
of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue
as a going concern.
In
December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) emerged in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. Since that time, infections have been
reported globally. Previously, certain federal, state and local governmental authorities issued stay-at-home orders, proclamations and/or
directives aimed at minimizing the spread of COVID-19. As a result, all of our corporate and franchised Simplicity gaming centers were
closed effective April 1, 2020. We commenced reopening Simplicity gaming centers as of May 1, 2020 and have since reopened 17 corporate
and 12 franchised locations. Although our franchise agreements with franchisees of Simplicity gaming centers require a minimum monthly
royalty payment to us from the franchisees regardless of whether the franchised Simplicity gaming centers are operating, there is a potential
risk that franchisees of Simplicity gaming centers will default in their obligations to pay their minimum monthly royalty payment to
us, resulting in either an increase in accounts receivables or a bad debt expense where account receivables are no longer collectible
due to a franchisee’s inability to pay the minimum monthly royalty payments owed by the franchisee. Additional and/or more restrictive
orders, proclamations and/or directives may be issued in the future.
The
ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s operations is unknown and will depend on future developments, which are
highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration of the COVID-19 outbreak, new information which may
emerge concerning the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, and any additional preventative and protective actions that governments, or
the Company, may direct, which may result in an extended period of continued business disruption, reduced customer traffic and reduced
operations. Any resulting financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time but is anticipated to have a material adverse
impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The
measures taken to date have negatively impacted the Company’s business during the nine months ended February 28, 2022 and will
potentially continue to impact the Company’s business. Management expects that all of its business segments, across all of its
geographies, will be impacted to some degree, but the significance of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the Company’s business
and the duration for which it may have an impact cannot be determined at this time.
