VIDEO RIVER NETWORKS,
INC.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Video
River Networks, Inc. (the “Company”) is a technology firm that operates and
manages a portfolio of Electric Vehicles, Artificial Intelligence, Machine
Learning and Robotics (“EV-AI-ML-R”) assets, businesses and operations in North
America. The Company’s current and target portfolio businesses and assets
include operations that design, develop, manufacture and sell high-performance
fully electric vehicles and design, manufacture, install and sell Power
Controls, Battery Technology, Wireless Technology, and Residential utility
meters and remote, mission-critical devices mostly engineered through
Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotic technologies. The Company
currently maintains minor
equity interest in: (1) Tesla, Inc. (TSLA), a California based maker of
high-performance fully electric vehicles; (2) Electrameccanica
Vehicles Corp. (SOLO), a British Columbia, Canada headquartered company that
designs and builds the all-electric SOLO and the Tofino all-electric sport
coupe; (3) Lordstown Motors Corp. (RIDE), a Lordstown, Ohio based company that
designs and manufactures electric vehicles; (4) Fisker Inc. (FSR), a Los
Angeles, California headquartered company that designs and builds all-electric,
zero-emissions vehicles; (5) Nikola Corporation (NKLA), a Phoenix, Arizona
company that designs and manufactures electric components, drivetrains and
vehicles.
Our current technology-focused business model was a result of our
board resolution on September 15, 2020 to spin-in our specialty real estate
holding business to an operating subsidiary and then pivot back to being a
technology company. The Company has now returned
back to its original technology-focused businesses of Power Controls, Battery Technology, Wireless Technology, and
Residential utility meters and remote, mission-critical devices. In addition
to above list, the Company intends to spread its wings into the Electric
Vehicles, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotics (“EV-AI-ML-R”)
businesses/markets, targeting acquisition, ownership and operation of acquired
EV-AI-ML-R businesses or portfolio of EV-AI-ML-R businesses.
Video
River Networks, prior to September 15, 2020, used to be a specialty real estate
holding company, focuses on the acquisition, ownership, and management of
specialized industrial properties. Prior to its real estate business model, the Company’s Power Controls Division has
used wireless technology to control both residential utility meters and remote,
mission-critical devices since 2002.
The
current management of the Company resulted from a purchase of voting control of
the Company by Community Economic Development Capital LLC, (“CED Capital”) a
California limited liability company. After the change of control transaction,
CED Capital spun out the control-stock to its sole unitholder before being sold
to the Company for $1. Thereafter CED Capital became an operating subsidiary of
the Company. We used the acquisition of method of accounting for acquisition
of subsidiaries by the Group method to account for this transaction. The cost
of the acquisition was measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity
instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange.
As
previously disclosed on our Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, on December 8, 2019, on October 29, 2019, the company sold one (1)
Special 2019 series A preferred share (one preferred share is convertible
150,000,000 share of common stocks) of the company for Fifty Thousand and
00/100 ($50,000/00) Dollars, to Community Economic Development Capital LLC, a
California limited liability company. The Special preferred share controls 60%
of the company’s total voting rights. The issuance of
the preferred share to Community Economic Development Capital LLC gave to
Community Economic Development Capital LLC, the controlling vote to control and
dominate the affairs of the company theretofor.
Following
the completion of above mentioned transactions, the company pivoted the
business model of NIHK to become a specialty real estate holding company for
specialized assets including, affordable housing, opportunity zones properties,
hemp and cannabis farms, dispensaries facilities, CBD related commercial
facilities, industrial
and commercial real estate, and other real estate related services.
On September 15, 2020, Video
River Networks, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a stock purchase agreement
with Kid Castle Educational Corporation (“Kid Castle”), an entity related to,
and controlled by our President and CEO with respect to the purchase through
private placement, of 900,000 shares of its preferred stock at a purchase price
of $3 in cash and a transfer of 100% interest in, and control of Community
Economic Development Capital, LLC (a California Limited Liability Company).
The shares were issued to the investors without registration under the
Securities Act of 1933 based upon exemptions from registration provided under
Section 4(2) of the Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The issuances
did not involve any public offering; no general solicitation or general
advertising was used in connection with the offering. As at the time of this
transaction, all four businesses involved in the transaction were controlled by
Mr. Frank I Igwealor. Because both the buyer and seller in the above acquisitions
were under the control of the same person, the transaction was classified as
“common control transaction and therefore fall under “Transactions Between
Entities Under Common Control“ subsections of ASC 805-50. Following the
acquisition, the Company now has 55% of the voting control of and 100% of
operating and financial control of Kid Castle.
The consolidated financial
statements of the Company therefore include Kid Castle Educational Corporation
and its subsidiary, GiveMePower Corporation, and all wholly owned (or majority
owned) subsidiaries of GiveMePower including Alpharidge Capital LLC.
(“Alpharidge”), Community Economic Development Capital, LLC. (“CED Capital”),
and Cannabinoid Biosciences, Inc. (“CBDX”), and subsidiaries, in which it has a
controlling voting interest and entities consolidated under the variable
interest entities (“VIE”) provisions of ASC 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”),
after elimination of intercompany transactions and accounts.
Following the completion
of the transaction with Kid Castle, the Company having been partly freed of the
internally-managed real estate holding business that focused on the
acquisition, ownership and management of specialized industrial properties,
affordable housing and opportunity zone real estate properties and businesses,
has decided to return back to its original technology-focused businesses of Power Controls, Battery Technology, Wireless Technology,
and Residential utility meters and remote, mission-critical devices. In
addition to above list, the Company is spreading its wings into the Electric
Vehicles, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotics (“EV-AI-ML-R”)
businesses/markets, targeting acquisition, ownership and operation of acquired
EV-AI-ML-R businesses or portfolio of EV-AI-ML-R businesses.
Crypto Currency Mining Operation
During the period
between March 3 to March 16 2021, the Company tried unsuccessfully, to acquire
Bitcentro/Buzzmehome’s CryptoCurrency mining operations in Canada for $500,000
in cash. The deal fell through because of misunderstanding between parties as
to the timing and duration of due diligence period.
After the failed
acquisition attempt, the Company contracted with Brady Fernandes, a Los Angeles
resident who claimed expertise in the crypto mining industry. The Company
contracted with Brady for $9,200 to commence the
project of helping the company to build out its own in-house cryptocurrency
mining farm. Brady has commenced building our first rig and has also ordered
the necessary equipment to add rigs to our crypto currency mining farm. Crypto
Currency Mining Operation is already generating revenue.
We have dedicated a line-item, “Crypto Currency Mining
Rigs,” on
our balance to track all our investments in the Crypto Currency Mining
Operation. We plan to build out a fully operating farm in California, using
solar energy to mitigate the high cost of energy in California.
The
consolidated financial statements of the Company therefore include Kid Castle
Educational Corporation, whose main operating subsidiary is GiveMePower
Corporation, a Nevada corporation with operating subsidiaries that includes
Alpharidge Capital LLC. (“Alpharidge”), Community Economic Development Capital,
LLC. (“CED Capital”), and Cannabinoid Biosciences, Inc. (“CBDX”). and
subsidiaries, in which GiveMePower has a controlling voting interest and
entities consolidated under the variable interest entities (“VIE”) provisions
of ASC 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”), after elimination of intercompany
transactions and accounts.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, in which
the Company has a controlling voting interest and entities consolidated under
the variable interest entities (“VIE”) provisions of ASC 810, “Consolidation”
(“ASC 810”). Inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon
consolidation.
ASC 810 requires that the
investor with the controlling financial interest should consolidate the
investee/affiliate. ASC 810-10 requires that an equity interest investor
consolidates a VIE when it retains an investment in the entity, is considered a
variable interest investor in the entity, and is the primary beneficiary of the
entity. An investor in a VIE is a “variable interest beneficiary” when, per an
arrangement’s governing documents, the investor will absorb a portion of the
VIE’s expected losses or will receive a portion of the entity’s “residual
returns.” The variable interest beneficiary retaining a controlling financial
interest in the VIE is designated as its “primary beneficiary” and must
consolidate the VIE. A variable interest beneficiary retains a “controlling financial
interest” in a VIE when that beneficiary retains the power to direct the
activities of the VIE that have the greatest influence over the VIE’s economic
performance and retains an obligation to absorb the VIE’s significant losses or
the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant
to the VIE. Based on the ASC 810 test above, Video River Networks Inc. is the primary beneficiary
of Kid Castle Educational Corporation (the “VIE”) because Video
River Networks
retained a controlling financial interest in the VIE and has the power to
direct the activities of the VIE, having the greatest influence over the VIE’s
economic performance and retains an obligation to absorb the VIE’s significant
losses and the right to determine and receive benefits from the VIE.
Since Video
River Networks, Inc.
exercises control of 55% of the voting shares and 100% of the operational and
financial control of Kid Castle Educational Corporation, the consolidation
rule requires that the Revenue, Assets and Liabilities recognized and disclosed
on the financial statements of Kid Castle Educational Corporation are also
recognized and disclosed on the financial statements of Video
River Networks, Inc. pursuant
to ASC 810.
NOTE
2. GOING CONCERN
Our financial statements are prepared using accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going
concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of
liabilities in the normal course of business. Our electric vehicles operations
are yet to start and may never commence at all. We have limited ongoing
business and income. For the period ended March 31, 2021, we reported net
income of $414,555 and accumulated deficit of $18,971,301 as of March 31, 2021.
These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a
going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to
reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of
assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from
the outcome of these uncertainties. Our ability to continue as a going concern
is dependent upon our ability to raise additional debt or equity funding to
meet our ongoing operating expenses and ultimately in merging with another
entity with experienced management and profitable operations. No assurances can
be given that we will be successful in achieving these objectives.
NOTE 3.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of Presentation
The summary of
significant accounting policies is presented to assist in the understanding of
the financial statements. These policies conform to accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently
applied. The Company has elected a calendar year of December 31 year-end.
Principles
of Consolidation
The consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its subsidiaries, in
which the Company has a controlling voting interest and entities consolidated
under the variable interest entities (“VIE”) provisions of ASC 810,
“Consolidation” (“ASC 810”). The consolidated financial statements include the
Company and Kid Castle Educational Corporation and all of its controlled
subsidiary companies. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions
have been eliminated. Investments in business entities in which we do not have
control, but we have the ability to exercise significant influence over
operating and financial policies (generally 20% to 50% ownership) are accounted
for using the equity method of accounting. Operating results of acquired
businesses are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income from the date
of acquisition. We consolidate variable interest entities if we have
operational and financial control, and are deemed to be the >50.1%
beneficiary of the profit and loss of the entity. Operating results for
variable interest entities in which we are determined to be the primary
beneficiary are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income from the date
such determination is made.
COVID-19 Risks, Impacts and Uncertainties
COVID-19
Risks, Impacts and Uncertainties — We are subject to the
risks arising from COVID-19's impacts on the residential real estate industry.
Our management believes that these impacts, which include but are not limited
to the following, could have a significant negative effect on our future
financial position, results of operations, and cash flows: (i) prohibitions
or limitations on in-person activities associated with residential real estate
transactions; (ii) lack of consumer desire for in-person interactions and
physical home tours; and (iii) deteriorating economic conditions, such as
increased unemployment rates, recessionary conditions, lower yields on
individuals' investment portfolios, and more stringent mortgage financing
conditions. In addition, we have considered the impacts and uncertainties
of COVID-19 in our use of estimates in preparation of our consolidated
financial statements. These estimates include, but are not limited to,
likelihood of achieving performance conditions under performance-based equity
awards, net realizable value of inventory, and the fair value of reporting
units and goodwill for impairment.
In
April 2020, following the government lockdown order, we asked all employees to
begin to work from their homes and we also reduced the number of hours
available to each of our employees by approximately by approximately 75%. These
actions taken in response to the economic impact of COVID-19 on our business
resulted in a reduction of productivity for the period
ended March 31, 2021 . All cost related to these actions are included in
general and administrative expenses, as these costs were determined to be
direct and incremental.
Use of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
We maintain cash balances in a
non-interest-bearing account that currently does not exceed federally insured
limits. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid
investments with a maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash
equivalents. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we did maintain
$89,021.00 and $1,630.00 balance of cash equivalents respectively.
Financial
Instruments
The estimated fair
values for financial instruments were determined at discrete points in time
based on relevant market information. These estimates involved uncertainties
and could not be determined with precision. The carrying amount of the our
accounts payable and accruals, our accruals- related parties and loans –
related parties approximate their fair values because of the short-term
maturities of these instruments.
Fair
Value Measurements:
ASC Topic 820,
Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820"), provides a
comprehensive framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures which
are required about fair value measurements. Specifically, ASC 820
sets forth a definition of fair value and establishes a hierarchy prioritizing
the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest priority to quoted
prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest
priority to unobservable value inputs. ASC 820 defines the hierarchy
as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in
active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date. The
types of assets and liabilities included in Level 1 are highly liquid and
actively traded instruments with quoted prices, such as equities listed on the
New York Stock Exchange.
Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than
quoted prices in active markets but are either directly or indirectly
observable as of the reported date. The types of assets and
liabilities in Level 2 are typically either comparable to actively traded
securities or contracts or priced with models using highly observable inputs.
Level 3 – Significant inputs to pricing
that are unobservable as of the reporting date. The types of assets
and liabilities included in Level 3 are those with inputs requiring significant
management judgment or estimation, such as complex and subjective models and
forecasts used to determine the fair value of financial transmission rights.
Our financial instruments consist of accounts payable and accruals
and our accruals- related parties. The carrying amount of the out accounts
payable and accruals, accruals- related parties and loans – related parties
approximates their fair values because of the short-term maturities of these
instruments.
The Company’s financial instruments
consisted of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and line of credit. The
estimated fair value of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to
or from affiliated companies, and notes payable approximates its carrying
amount due to the short maturity of these instruments. The table below describes
the Company’s valuation of financial instruments using guidance from ASC
820-10:

Financial Instruments
In the normal course of business, the
Investment Funds may trade various financial instruments and enter into certain
investment activities, which may give rise to off-balance-sheet risks, with the
objective of capital appreciation or as economic hedges against other
securities or the market as a whole. The Investment Funds’ investments may
include futures, options, swaps and securities sold, not yet purchased. These
financial instruments represent future commitments to purchase or sell other
financial instruments or to exchange an amount of cash based on the change in
an underlying instrument at specific terms at specified future dates. Risks
arise with these financial instruments from potential counterparty non-performance
and from changes in the market values of underlying instruments.
Credit concentrations may arise from
investment activities and may be impacted by changes in economic, industry or
political factors. The Investment Funds routinely execute transactions with
counterparties in the financial services industry, resulting in credit
concentration with respect to the financial services industry. In the ordinary
course of business, the Investment Funds may also be subject to a concentration
of credit risk to a particular counterparty. The Investment Funds seek to
mitigate these risks by actively monitoring exposures, collateral requirements
and the creditworthiness of its counterparties.
The Investment Funds have entered into
various types of swap contracts with other counterparties. These agreements
provide that they are entitled to receive or are obligated to pay in cash an
amount equal to the increase or decrease, respectively, in the value of the
underlying shares, debt and other instruments that are the subject of the
contracts, during the period from inception of the applicable agreement to its
expiration. In addition, pursuant to the terms of such agreements, they are
entitled to receive or obligated to pay other amounts, including interest,
dividends and other distributions made in respect of the underlying shares,
debt and other instruments during the specified time frame. They are also
required to pay to the counterparty a floating interest rate equal to the
product of the notional amount multiplied by an agreed-upon rate,
and they receive interest on any cash collateral that they post to the
counterparty at the federal funds or LIBOR rate in effect for such period.
The Investment Funds may trade futures
contracts. A futures contract is a firm commitment to buy or sell a specified
quantity of a standardized amount of a deliverable grade commodity, security,
currency or cash at a specified price and specified future date unless the
contract is closed before the delivery date. Payments (or variation margin) are
made or received by the Investment Funds each day, depending on the daily
fluctuations in the value of the contract, and the whole value change is
recorded as an unrealized gain or loss by the Investment Funds. When the
contract is closed, the Investment Funds record a realized gain or loss equal
to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened
and the value at the time it was closed.
The Investment Funds may utilize forward
contracts to seek to protect their assets denominated in foreign currencies and
precious metals holdings from losses due to fluctuations in foreign exchange
rates and spot rates. The Investment Funds’ exposure to credit risk associated
with non-performance of such forward contracts is limited to the unrealized
gains or losses inherent in such contracts, which are recognized in other
assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities in our consolidated balance
sheets.
The Investment Funds may also enter into
foreign currency contracts for purposes other than hedging denominated
securities. When entering into a foreign currency forward contract, the
Investment Funds agree to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign
currency for an agreed-upon price on an agreed-upon future date unless the
contract is closed before such date. The Investment Funds record unrealized
gains or losses on the contracts as measured by the difference between the
forward foreign exchange rates at the dates of entry into such contracts and
the forward rates at the reporting date.
Furthermore, the Investment Funds may
also purchase and write option contracts. As a writer of option contracts, the
Investment Funds receive a premium at the outset and then bear the market risk
of unfavorable changes in the price of the underlying financial instrument. As
a result of writing option contracts, the Investment Funds are obligated to
purchase or sell, at the holder’s option, the underlying financial instrument.
Accordingly, these transactions result in off-balance-sheet risk, as the Investment
Funds’ satisfaction of the obligations may exceed the amount recognized in our
consolidated balance sheets.
Certain terms of the Investment Funds’
contracts with derivative counterparties, which are standard and customary to
such contracts, contain certain triggering events that would give the
counterparties the right to terminate the derivative instruments. In such
events, the counterparties to the derivative instruments could request
immediate payment on derivative instruments in net liability positions.
Derivatives
From time to
time, our subsidiaries enter into derivative contracts, including purchased and
written option contracts, swap contracts, futures contracts and forward
contracts. U.S. GAAP requires recognition of all
derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet at their fair
value. The accounting for changes in fair value depends on the intended use of
the derivative and its resulting designation. For those derivative instruments
that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, a company must
designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as a
fair value hedge, cash flow hedge or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign
operation. Gains and losses related to a hedge are either recognized in income
immediately to offset the gain or loss on the hedged item or are deferred and
reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and
subsequently recognized in earnings when the hedged item affects earnings. The
change in fair value of the ineffective portion of a financial instrument,
determined using the hypothetical derivative method, is recognized in earnings
immediately. The gain or loss related to financial instruments that are not
designated as hedges are recognized immediately in earnings. Cash flows related
to hedging activities are included in the operating section of the consolidated
statements of cash flows. For further information regarding our derivative
contracts, see Note 6, “Financial Instruments.”
Marginal Loan Payable
The Company
entered into a marginal loan agreement as part of its new trading account
process in 2019 with TD Ameritrade, the Company’s brokerage to continue the
purchase of securities and to fund the underfunded balance. The marginal loan
payable bears interest at 0% per annum and interest and unpaid principal
balance is payable on the maturity date. The balance of this account as of
March 31, 2021 is $538.
Investment – Trading Securities
All investment
securities are classified as trading securities and are carried at fair value
in accordance with ASC 320 Investments — Debt and Equity Securities. Investment
transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses on
sales of investments are based on the first-in, first-out or the specific
identification method. Realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments
are recorded in the statements of operations as realized and unrealized gains
or losses as net revenue. All investment securities are held and transacted by
the Company’s broker firm, TD Ameritrade. The Company did not hold more than 3%
of equity of the shares of any public companies as investments as of March 31,
2021
All investments that
are listed on a securities exchange are valued at their last sales price on the
primary securities exchange on which such securities are traded on such date.
Securities that are not listed on any exchange but are traded over-the-counter
are valued at the mean between the last “bid” and “ask” price for such security
on such date. The Company does not have any investment securities for which
market quotes are not readily available.
The Company’s trading
securities are held by a third-party brokerage firm, TD Ameritrade, and
composed of publicly traded companies with readily available fair value which
are quoted prices in active markets.
Related
Party Transactions:
A related party is
generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of our membership
interests including such person's immediate families, (ii) our management,
(iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is
under common control with us, or (iv) anyone who can significantly
influence our financial and operating decisions. A transaction is considered to
be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or
obligations between related parties. As at March 31, 2021, the Company has a
loan balance of $555,284 from company that is controlled by the Company’s
majority stockholder. Additionally, during the period under review, the
Company paid rent $1,793 to a company that is controlled by the Company’s majority
stockholder. See NOTE 7 for more details of our related party transactions.
Leases:
In February 2016,
the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases" that requires for leases longer
than one year, a lessee to recognize in the statement of financial condition a
right-of-use asset, representing the right to use the underlying asset for the
lease term, and a lease liability, representing the liability to make lease
payments. The accounting update also requires that for finance leases, a lessee
recognize interest expense on the lease liability, separately from the
amortization of the right-of-use asset in the statements of earnings, while for
operating leases, such amounts should be recognized as a combined expense. In
addition, this accounting update requires expanded disclosures about the nature
and terms of lease agreements. The Company has reviewed the new standard and
does not expect it to have a material impact to the statement of financial
condition or its net capital.
Income
Taxes:
The provision for
income taxes is computed using the asset and liability method, under which
deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax
consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax
bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating losses and tax credit
carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the
currently enacted tax rates that apply to taxable income in effect for the
years in which those tax assets are expected to be realized or settled. We
record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that
is believed more likely than not to be realized.
Uncertain
Tax Positions:
We evaluate tax
positions in a two-step process. We first determine whether it is more likely
than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, based on the
technical merits of the position. If a tax position meets the
more-likely-than-not recognition threshold it is then measured to determine the
amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The tax position is
measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of
being realized upon ultimate settlement. We classify gross interest and
penalties and unrecognized tax benefits that are not expected to result in
payment or receipt of cash within one year as long term liabilities in the
financial statements.
Revenue
Recognition:
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with
the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards
Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires
that five basic steps be followed to recognize revenue: (1) a legally
enforceable contract that meets criteria standards as to composition and substance
is identified; (2) performance obligations relating to provision of goods or
services to the customer are identified; (3) the transaction price, with
consideration given to any variable, noncash, or other relevant consideration,
is determined; (4) the transaction price is allocated to the performance
obligations; and (5) revenue is recognized when control of goods or services is
transferred to the customer with consideration given, whether that control
happens over time or not. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on
our management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of
the products and services delivered and the collectability of
those amounts. The adoption of ASC 606 did not result in a change to the
accounting for any of the in-scope revenue streams; as such, no cumulative
effect adjustment was recorded.
The Company generates
revenue primarily from: (1) the sale of homes/properties, (2) commissions
and fees charged on each real estate services transaction closed by our lead
agents or partner agents, and (3) sales of trading securities using its broker
firm, TD Ameritrade less original purchase cost. Net trading revenues primarily
consist of revenues from trading securities earned upon completion of trade, net
of any trading fees. A trading is completed when earned and recognized at a
point in time, on a trade-date basis, as the Company executes trades. The
Company records trading revenue on a net basis, trading sales less original
purchase cost. Net realized gains and losses from securities transactions are
determined for federal income tax and financial reporting purposes on the
first-in, first-out method and represent proceeds on disposition of investments
less the cost basis of investments. Sale of real estate properties are
recognized at the sales price/amount and the total cost (including cost of
rehabilitations) associated with the property acquisition and rehabilitation
are classified in Cost of Goods Sold (COGS).
During the periods
ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company did recognized revenue of $665,667 and $495,000.00
respectively.
Advertising
Costs:
We expense advertising costs when advertisements
occur. During the
periods ended March 31, 2021 or 2020, the Company did recognized advertising costs of $1,649 and $0.00 respectively.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company's
financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk
primarily consist of its cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash
and cash equivalents with financial institutions of high credit worthiness. The
Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions within the United
States which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)
up to limits of approximately $250,000. The Company has not experienced any
losses with regard to its bank accounts and believes it is not exposed to any
risk of loss on its cash bank accounts. It is possible that at times, the
company’s cash and cash equivalents with a particular financial institution may
exceed any applicable government insurance limits. In such situation, the
Company's management would assess the financial strength and credit worthiness
of any parties to which it extends funds, and as such, it believes that any associated
credit risk exposures would be addressed and mitigated.
Stock
Based Compensation:
The cost of equity instruments issued to
non-employees in return in accordance with ASC 505-50 “Equity-Based Payments to
Non-Employees” for goods and services is measured by the fair value of the
goods or services received or the measurement date fair value of the equity
instruments issued, whichever is the more readily determinable. Measurement
date for non-employees is the earlier of performance commitment date or the
completion of services. The cost of employee services received in exchange for
equity instruments is based on the grant date fair value of the equity
instruments issued in accordance with ASC 718 “Compensation - Stock
Compensation.”

NOTE
8. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Net
Loss per Share Calculation:
Basic net loss per common share ("EPS")
is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Dilutive
earnings per share include the effect of any potentially dilutive debt or
equity under the treasury stock method, if including such instruments is
dilutive, assuming all dilutive potential common shares were issued. Dilutive
loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is
anti-dilutive. The Company’s diluted earnings
(loss) per share is the same as the basic earnings/loss per share for the
period January 1, 2021 to March 31, 2021, as there are no potential shares
outstanding that would have a dilutive effect.

Deferred income
taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying
amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the
amounts used for income tax purposes. A full valuation allowance is established
against all net deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020
based on estimates of recoverability. While the Company has optimistic plans
for its business strategy, it determined that such a valuation allowance was
necessary given the current and expected near term losses and the uncertainty
with respect to its ability to generate sufficient profits from its business
model.
We did not provide
any current or deferred US federal income tax provision or benefit for any of
the periods presented in these financial statements because we have accumulated
substantial operating losses over the years. When it is more likely than
not, that a tax asset cannot be realized through future income, we must record
an allowance against any future potential future tax benefit. We have
provided a full valuation allowance against the net deferred tax asset,
consisting of net operating loss carry forwards, because management has
determined that it is more likely than not that we will not earn income
sufficient to realize the deferred tax assets during the carry forward periods.
The Company has
not taken a tax position that, if challenged, would have a material effect on
the financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2021 or December 31,
2020 as defined under ASC 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes."
We did not recognize any adjustment to the liability for uncertain tax position
and therefore did not record any adjustment to the beginning balance of the
accumulated deficit on the balance sheet.

The Company has recorded as of March 31, 2021 and December 31,
2020, a valuation allowance of $7,398,808 and $7,560,484 respectively, as it
believes that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not
be realized in future years. Management has based its assessment on the
Company’s lack of profitable operating history.
The valuation
allowance $7,398,808 as at March 31, 2021 decreased compared to December 31,
2020 of $7,560,484 as a result of the Company generating additional net
operating income of $414,555.
The Company conducts an analysis of its
tax positions and has concluded that it has no uncertain tax positions as of
ended March 31, 2021 or December 31, 2020.
For the period
ended March 31, 2021 or December 31, 2020, the Company has net operating loss
carry-forwards of approximately $18,971,301and $19,385,856
respectively. Such amounts are subject to IRS code section 382 limitations and
expire in 2033.
NOTE
10. RECENTLY ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Recently Issued
Accounting Standards
ASU 2019-12 — In December 2019, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2019- 12,
Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The amendments in ASU 2019-12
simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the
general principles in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic
740, Income Taxes. The amendments also improve consistent application of and
simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing
guidance. ASU 2019-12 will be effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning
October 1, 2021, with early adoption permitted. The transition requirements are
dependent upon each amendment within this update and will be applied either
prospectively or retrospectively. The Company does not expect this ASU to have
a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-13 — In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU
2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,
which amends FASB ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit
Losses. In addition, in May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, Targeted
Transition Relief, which updates FASB ASU 2016-13. These ASU’s require
financial assets measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount
to be collected and broadens the information, including forecasted information
incorporating more timely information, that an entity must consider in
developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured. These ASU’s
are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including
interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Most of our financial assets
are excluded from the requirements of this standard as they are measured at
fair value or are subject to other accounting standards. In addition, certain
of our other financial assets are short-term in nature and therefore are not
likely to be subject to significant credit losses beyond what is already
recorded under current accounting standards. As a result, we currently do not
anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated
financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU
2018-13, Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements
for Fair Value Measurements, which amends FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair
Value Measurements. This ASU eliminates, modifies and adds various
disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. This ASU is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within
those fiscal years. Certain disclosures are required to be applied using a
retrospective approach and others using a prospective approach. Early adoption
is permitted. The various disclosure requirements being eliminated, modified or
added are not significant to us. As a result, we currently do not anticipate
this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU
2018-15, Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a
Cloud Computing Arrangement That is a Service Contract, which amends FASB
ASC Subtopic 350-40, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software.
This ASU adds certain disclosure requirements related to implementation costs
incurred for internal-use software and cloud computing arrangements. The
amendment aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs
incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the
requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or
obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an
internal-use software license). This ASU is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal
years. The amendments in this ASU should be applied either using a
retrospective or prospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. We
currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our
consolidated financial statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15 on “Presentation
of Financial Statements Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) – Disclosure of
Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”.
Currently, there is no guidance in U.S. GAAP about management’s responsibility
to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to
continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. The amendments
in this update provide such guidance. In doing so, the amendments are intended
to reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures. The
amendments require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a
going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are
currently in U.S. auditing standards. Specifically, the amendments (1) provide
a definition of the term substantial doubt, (2) require an evaluation every
reporting period including interim periods, (3) provide principles for
considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans, (4) require certain
disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration
of management’s plans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures
when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a
period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or
available to be issued). The amendments in this update are effective for public
and nonpublic entities for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016. Early
adoption is permitted. We currently do not anticipate this standard to have a
significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-01,
"Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about
Offsetting Assets and Liabilities." This ASU clarifies that the scope
of ASU No. 2011-11, "Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about
Offsetting Assets and Liabilities." applies only to derivatives,
repurchase agreements and reverse purchase agreements, and securities borrowing
and securities lending transactions that are either offset in accordance with
specific criteria contained in FASB Accounting Standards Codification or subject
to a master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The amendments in this
ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years,
beginning on or after January 1, 2013. We currently do not anticipate this
standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No.
2013-02, "Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts
Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income." The ASU
adds new disclosure requirements for items reclassified out of accumulated
other comprehensive income by component and their corresponding effect on net
income. The ASU is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2013. We currently do not anticipate this standard to have
a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2013, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board, or FASB, issued ASU No. 2013-04, "Liabilities (Topic
405): Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for
which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date." This
ASU addresses the recognition, measurement, and
disclosure of certain obligations resulting from joint and several arrangements
including debt arrangements, other contractual obligations, and settled
litigation and judicial rulings. The ASU is effective for public entities for
fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December
15, 2013. We currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant
impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-05,
"Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent's Accounting for the
Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or
Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign
Entity." This ASU addresses the accounting for the cumulative
translation adjustment when a parent either sells a part or all of its
investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial
interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a
business within a foreign entity. The guidance outlines the events when
cumulative translation adjustments should be released into net income and is
intended by FASB to eliminate some disparity in current accounting practice.
This ASU is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods
within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. We currently do not
anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated
financial statements.
In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-07, “Presentation
of Financial Statements (Topic 205): Liquidation Basis of Accounting.” The
amendments require an entity to prepare its financial statements using the
liquidation basis of accounting when liquidation is imminent. Liquidation is
imminent when the likelihood is remote that the entity will return from
liquidation and either (a) a plan for liquidation is approved by the person or
persons with the authority to make such a plan effective and the likelihood is
remote that the execution of the plan will be blocked by other parties or (b) a
plan for liquidation is being imposed by other forces (for example, involuntary
bankruptcy). If a plan for liquidation was specified in the entity’s governing
documents from the entity’s inception (for example, limited-life entities), the
entity should apply the liquidation basis of accounting only if the approved
plan for liquidation differs from the plan for liquidation that was specified
at the entity’s inception. The amendments require financial statements prepared
using the liquidation basis of accounting to present relevant information about
an entity’s expected resources in liquidation by measuring and presenting
assets at the amount of the expected cash proceeds from liquidation. The entity
should include in its presentation of assets any items it had not previously
recognized under U.S. GAAP but that it expects to either sell in liquidation or
use in settling liabilities (for example, trademarks). The amendments are
effective for entities that determine liquidation is imminent during annual
reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013, and interim reporting
periods therein. We currently do not anticipate this standard to have a
significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
We have reviewed all the recently issued, but not
yet effective, accounting pronouncements. Management does not believe that any
recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a
material effect on the accompanying financial statements. As new accounting
pronouncements are issued, we will adopt those that are applicable under the
circumstances.
NOTE
11. INVESTMENT SECURITIES (TRADING)
Investment
Investments and securities purchased,
not yet sold consist of equities, bonds, bank debt and other corporate
obligations, all of which are reported at fair value in our consolidated
balance sheets. These investments are considered trading securities. In
addition, our Investment segment has certain derivative transactions which are
discussed below in “Financial Instruments.”
Investment Securities (Trading): The Company
applied the fair value accounting treatment for trading securities per ASC 320,
with unrealized gains and losses recorded in net income each period. Debt
securities classified as trading should be measured at fair value in the
currency in which the debt securities are denominated and re-measured into the
investor’s functional currency using the spot exchange rate at the balance
sheet date. Investments in equity securities as of March 31, 2021 are
summarized based on the following:

DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Forward-Looking
Statements
This Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) contains forward-looking statements. The
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) encourages companies to disclose
forward-looking information so that investors can better understand a company’s
future prospects and make informed investment decisions. This Quarterly Report
and other written and oral statements that we make from time to time contain
such forward-looking statements that set out anticipated results based on
management’s plans and assumptions regarding future events or performance. We
have tried, wherever possible, to identify such statements by using words such
as “anticipate,”“estimate,”“expect,”“project,”“intend,”“plan,”“believe,”“will”
and similar expressions in connection with any discussion of future operating
or financial performance. In particular, these include statements relating to
future actions, future performance or results of current and anticipated sales
efforts, expenses, the outcome of contingencies, such as legal proceedings, and
financial results.
We caution that the
factors described herein, and other factors could cause our actual results of
operations and financial condition to differ materially from those expressed in
any forward-looking statements we make and that investors should not place
undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Further, any
forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is
made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to
reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made
or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or
circumstances. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for
us to predict all of such factors. Further, we cannot assess the impact of each
such factor on our results of operations or the extent to which any factor, or
combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from
those contained in any forward-looking statements.
General
Business Overview
Video
River Networks, Inc. (“NIHK,” “PubCo” or “Company”), previously known as
Nighthawk Systems Inc., a Nevada corporation, used to be a provider of wireless
and IP-based control solutions for the utility and hospitality industries. On
October 29, 2019, Video River Networks, Inc. sold one (1) Special 2019 series A
preferred share (one preferred share is convertible 150,000,000 share of common
stocks) of the company for an agreed upon purchase price to Community Economic
Development Capital LLC, (“CED Capital”) a California limited liability company
CED. The Special preferred share controls 60% of the company’s total voting rights
and thus, gave to CED Capital the controlling vote power to control and
dominate the affairs of the company theretofor. Upon the closing of the
transaction, the business of CED Capital was merged into the Company and CED
Capital became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
Following
the completion of above mentioned transactions, the Company added real estate
operations to its business model and started devoting capital to real estate
holding operations for specialized assets including, affordable housing,
opportunity zones properties, medical real estate investments, industrial and
commercial real estate, and other real estate related services.
On June 10, 2020, the Company filed Form 10-12g,
General Form for Registration of Securities, which became effective on August
10, 2020, and as a result, the Company is required to file all required SEC
forms since August 10, 2020.
On
September 15, 2020, the Company spun-off its specialty real estate holding
business to an operating subsidiary and then pivot back to being a technology
company.
Subsequent to the above spinoff, the Company has now
returned back to its original technology-focused businesses of Power Controls, Battery Technology, Wireless
Technology, and Residential utility meters and remote, mission-critical devices
in addition to a primary focus of building a portfolio businesses and assets
and operations that source, design, develop, manufacture and distribute
affordable, high-performance fully electric vehicles in North America.
Going forward, the Company intends to focus its
business model to operate and manage a portfolio of Electric Vehicles,
Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotics (“EV-AI-ML-R”) assets,
businesses and operations in addition to its Power Controls, Battery
Technology, Wireless Technology, and Residential utility meters and remote,
mission-critical devices businesses in North America.
Most Recent Addition to Our Business and Organization
Crypto Currency Mining Operation
During the period
between March 3 to March 16 2021, the Company tried unsuccessfully, to acquire
Bitcentro/Buzzmehome’s CryptoCurrency mining operations in Canada for $500,000
in cash. The deal fell through because of misunderstanding between parties as
to the timing and duration of due diligence period.
After the failed
acquisition attempt, the Company contracted with Brady Fernandes, a Los Angeles
resident who claimed expertise in the crypto mining industry. The Company paid
Brady $9,200 to commence the project of helping the company to build out its
own inhouse cryptocurrency mining farm. Brady has commenced build our first
rig and has also ordered the necessary equipment to add rigs to our crypto
currency mining farm. Crypto Currency Mining Operation is already generating
revenue.
We have dedicated a
line-item, “Crypto Currency Mining Rigs,” on our balance to
track all our investments in the Crypto Currency Mining Operation. We plan to
build out a fully operating farm in California, using solar energy to mitigate
the high cost of energy in California.
Environmental, Social and Governance
(“ESG”)
We endeavor to provide a richly diverse
work environment that employs the highest performers, cultivates the best ideas
and creates the widest possible platform for success. We are committed to

actively engaging in these areas. Each member of the executive team maintains
an annual goal related to these core values, which is evaluated by the
Company’s Board of Trustees. Our goal is to create and sustain an inclusive
environment where diversity will thrive, employees will want to work and
tenants will want. We are committed to providing our employees with
encouragement, guidance, time and resources to learn and apply the skills
required to succeed in their jobs. We provide many classroom and on-line training
courses to assist our employees in interacting with prospects and tenants as
well as extensive training for our customer service specialists in maintaining
our properties and improvements, equipment and appliances. We actively promote

engagement by surveying them annually and find most employees say they are
proud to work at the Company, value one another as colleagues, believe in our
mission and values and feel their skills meet their job requirements.

we have a dedicated in-house team that initiates and applies sustainable
practices in all aspects of our business, including investment activities,
development, property operations and property management activities. With its
high density, multifamily housing is, by its nature, an environmentally
friendly property type. Our recent acquisition and development activities have
been primarily concentrated in pedestrian-friendly urban and close-in suburban
locations near public transportation. When developing and renovating our
properties, we strive to reduce energy and water consumption by investing in
energy saving technology while positively impacting the experience of our
tenants and the value of our assets. We continue to implement a combination of
irrigation, lighting, HVAC and renewable energy improvements at our properties
that will reduce energy and water consumption. For 2020, we continue to have
an express company-wide goal for Total Well-Being, which includes enhanced ESG
efforts. Employees, including our executives, will have their performance
against our various Total Well - Being goals evaluated as part of our annual
performance review process
Our corporate office is located at 370 Amapola
Ave., Suite 200A, Torrance, California 90501. Our telephone number is (310)
895-1839. As of March 31, 2021, we had no W-2 employee, but three of our
officers and directors provide all the services without pay until we formally
enter into employment contract with them as full-time employees.
Basis
of Presentation
The following discussion and analysis are based
on Video River Networks’ financial statements contained in this Current Report,
which we have prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted
accounting principles. Accompanying
financial statements for Video River Networks for the three months ended March
31, 2021 include a summary of our significant accounting policies and should be
read in conjunction with the discussion below. In the opinion of management,
all material adjustments necessary to present fairly the results of operations
for such periods have been included in these audited financial statements. All
such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, in which
the Company has a controlling voting interest and entities consolidated under
the variable interest entities (“VIE”) provisions of ASC 810, “Consolidation”
(“ASC 810”). Inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon
consolidation.
ASC
810 requires that the investor with the controlling financial interest should
consolidate the investee/affiliate. ASC 810-10 requires that an equity interest
investor consolidates a VIE when it retains an investment in the entity, is
considered a variable interest investor in the entity, and is the primary
beneficiary of the entity. An investor in a VIE is a “variable interest
beneficiary” when, per an arrangement’s governing documents, the investor will
absorb a portion of the VIE’s expected losses or will receive a portion of the
entity’s “residual returns.” The variable interest beneficiary retaining a
controlling financial interest in the VIE is designated as its “primary
beneficiary” and must consolidate the VIE. A variable interest beneficiary retains
a “controlling financial interest” in a VIE when that beneficiary retains the
power to direct the activities of the VIE that have the greatest influence over
the VIE’s economic performance and retains an obligation to absorb the VIE’s
significant losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could
potentially be significant to the VIE. Based on the ASC 810 test above, Video
River Network, Inc. is the primary beneficiary of Kid Castle Educational
Corporation (“VIE-2”), Kid Castle Educational Corporation is the primary
beneficiary of GiveMePower Corporation (the “VIE-1”) because Video River retained
a controlling financial interest in the VIE-2 and has the power to direct the
activities of the VIE-2, having the greatest influence over the VIE-2’s
economic performance and retains an obligation to absorb the VIE-2’s
significant losses and the right to determine and receive benefits from the VIE-2.
Similarly, Kid Castle Educational Corporation is the primary beneficiary of
GiveMePower Corporation (the “VIE-1”). Kid Castle retained a controlling
financial interest in the VIE-1 and has the power to direct the activities of
the VIE-1, having the greatest influence over the VIE-1’s economic performance
and retains an obligation to absorb the VIE-1’s significant losses and the
right to determine and receive benefits from the VIE-1.
Because GiveMePower Corporation
is 88% controlled by Kid Castle Educational Corporation, the consolidation rule
requires that the Revenue, Assets and Liabilities recognized and disclosed on
the financial statements of GiveMePower Corporation are also recognized and
disclosed on the financial statements of Kid Castle Educational Corporation
pursuant to ASC 810.
Our Business Objectives and Growth Strategies
General – Electric Vehicles (EV) Business
The Company’s Electric Vehicles (EV) business model is a newly
created business model created in the 3rd quarter of 2020, for the purpose of
effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase,
reorganization or similar Business acquisition with one or more EV
manufacturers and related businesses, which we refer to throughout this
prospectus as our EV Business acquisition plan. We have not selected any
specific EV Business acquisition target and we have not, nor has anyone on our
behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any
EV Business acquisition target. We have generated no revenues to date and we do
not expect that we will generate operating revenues at the earliest until we
consummate our initial EV Business acquisition. While we may pursue an
acquisition opportunity in the Electric Vehicles, Artificial Intelligence,
Machine Learning and Robotics (“EV-AI-ML-R”) industry or sector, we intend to
focus on: (1) businesses that source, design, develop, manufacture and
distribute high-performance, affordable and fully electric vehicles; and (2) businesses
that design, manufacture, install and sell Power Controls, Battery Technology,
Wireless Technology, and Residential utility meters and remote,
mission-critical devices mostly engineered using Artificial Intelligence,
Machine Learning and Robotic technologies.
Our management team is comprised of two business professionals
that have a broad range of experience in executive leadership, strategy
development and implementation, operations management, financial policy and
corporate transactions. Our management team members have worked together in
the past, at Goldstein Franklin, Inc. and other firms as executive leaders and
senior managers spearheading turnarounds, rollups and
industry-focused consolidation while generating shareholder value for many for
investors and stakeholders.
We believe that our management team is well positioned to identify
acquisition opportunities in the marketplace. Our management team's industry
expertise, principal investing transaction experience and business acumen will
make us an attractive partner and enhance our ability to complete a successful Business
acquisition. Our management believes that its ability to identify and implement
value creation initiatives has been an essential driver of past performance and
will remain central to its differentiated acquisition strategy.
Although our management team is well positioned and have experience
to identify acquisition opportunities in the marketplace, past performance of
our management team is not a guarantee either (i) of success with respect to
any EV Business acquisition we may consummate or (ii) that we will be able to
identify a suitable candidate for our initial EV Business acquisition. You
should not rely on the historical performance record of our management team as
indicative of our future performance. Additionally, in the course of their
respective careers, members of our management team have been involved in
businesses and deals that were unsuccessful. Our officers and directors have
not had management experience with EV companies in the past.
General – Real Estate Business
Our
real estate operations has two lines of business: (1) promote and preserve
affordable housing and economic development across urban neighborhoods in the
United States; and (2) acquire, hold and manage specialized assets. To achieve our objectives, we
plan to acquire, own, renovate, develop, redevelop, operate, dispose of, and
manage specialized assets including
industrial and commercial real estate, affordable housing and rental
property and multi-family properties both on our own
and through our investment management platform. We focus primarily on commercial and multifamily properties
located in urban and high-density suburban markets throughout the United
States. Our real estate platform is internally
managed with primarily focused on: (1) the acquisition, ownership and
management of specialized industrial properties; and (2) ownership, operation
and development of multi-family affordable housing properties.
Our Business Plan
Returning back to its foremost business model of technology
focused operations, Video River Networks, Inc. (the “Company”), a technology
firm intends to operate and manage a portfolio of Electric Vehicles, Artificial
Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotics (“EV-AI-ML-R”) assets, businesses
and operations in North America. The Company’s current targeted portfolio
businesses include those that source, design, develop, manufacture and
distribute high-performance, affordable and fully electric vehicles; and
design, manufacture, install and sell Power Controls, Battery Technology,
Wireless Technology, and Residential utility meters and remote,
mission-critical devices mostly engineered using Artificial Intelligence,
Machine Learning and Robotic technologies.
Our current technology-focused business model was a result of our
board resolution on September 15, 2020 to spin-in our specialty real estate
holding business to an operating subsidiary and then pivot back to being a
technology company. The Company has now returned back to its original
technology-focused businesses of Power Controls, Battery Technology, Wireless
Technology, and Residential utility meters and remote, mission-critical
devices. In addition to above list, the Company intends to spread its wings
into the Electric Vehicles, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and
Robotics (“EV-AI-ML-R”) businesses/markets, targeting acquisition, ownership
and operation of acquired EV-AI-ML-R businesses or portfolio of EV-AI-ML-R
businesses.
Video River Networks, Inc., prior to September 15, 2020, used to
be a specialty real estate holding company, focuses on the acquisition,
ownership, and management of specialized industrial properties. The Company’s
real estate business objective is to maximize stockholder returns through a
combination of (1) distributions to our stockholders, (2) sustainable long-term
growth in cash flows from increased rents, which we hope to pass on to
stockholders in the form of increased distributions, and (3) potential
long-term appreciation in the value of our properties from capital gains upon
future sale. As a real estate holding company, the Company is engaged
primarily in the ownership, operation, management, acquisition, development and
redevelopment of predominantly multifamily housing and specialized industrial
properties in the United States.
Having partially freed itself from the day-to-day operation of the
real estate operations, the Company now returns to its technology root with a
primary purpose of acquiring Electric Vehicles manufacturer or doing a joint
venture (JV) with Electric Vehicles businesses that source, design, develop,
manufacture and distribute high-performance, affordable and fully electric
vehicles; and design, manufacture, install and sell Power Controls, Battery
Technology, Wireless Technology, and Residential utility meters and remote,
mission-critical devices mostly engineered using Artificial Intelligence,
Machine Learning and Robotic technologies.
Business Strategy and Deal Origination
We have not finalized an acquisition target yet,
but making progress in identifying several potential candidates from which we intend
to pick those that meet our criteria for acquisition. Our acquisition and value creation strategy will be to
identify, acquire and, after our initial EV Business acquisition, build an EV
company that source, design, develop, manufacture and distribute
high-performance, affordable and fully electric vehicles that
suit the experience of our management team and can benefit from their
operational expertise. Our Business acquisition strategy will leverage our
management team's network of potential transaction sources, where we believe a
combination of our relationships, knowledge and experience could effect a
positive transformation or augmentation of existing businesses to improve their
overall value proposition.
Our management team's objective is to generate
attractive returns and create value for our shareholders by applying our
disciplined strategy of underwriting intrinsic worth and implementing changes
after making an acquisition to unlock value. While our approach is focused on the
EV-AI-ML-R
industries where we have differentiated insights, we also
have successfully driven change through a comprehensive value creation plan
framework. We favor opportunities where we can accelerate the target's growth
initiatives. As a management team we have successfully applied this approach
over approximately 16 years and have deployed capital successfully in a range
of market cycles.
We plan to utilize the network and Finance industry
experience of our Chief Executive Officer and our management team in seeking an
initial EV Business acquisition and employing our Business acquisition strategy
described below. Our CEO is a top financial professional with designations that
include, CPA, CMA, and CFM. He’s very knowledgeable in the fields of corporate
law, real estate, lending, turnarounds and restructuring. Over the course of
their careers, the members of our management team have developed a broad
network of contacts and corporate relationships that we believe will serve as a
useful source of EV acquisition opportunities. This network has been developed
through our management team's extensive experience:
·
investing in and operating a wide range of businesses;
·
growing brands through repositioning, increasing household
penetration and geographic expansion; expanding into new distribution channels,
such as e-Commerce, in an increasingly omni-channel world;
·
identifying lessons learned and applying solutions across product
portfolios and channels;
·
sourcing, structuring, acquiring, operating, developing,
growing, financing and selling businesses;
·
developing relationships with sellers, financing providers,
advisors and target management teams; and
·
executing transformational transactions in a wide range of
businesses under varying economic and financial market conditions.
In addition, drawing on their extensive investing
and operating experience, our management team anticipates tapping four major
sources of deal flow:
·
directly identifying potentially attractive undervalued
situations through primary research into EV industries and companies;
·
receiving information from our management team's global
contacts about a potentially attractive situation;
·
leads from investment bankers and advisors regarding
businesses seeking a combination or added value that matches our strengths; and
·
inbound opportunities from a company or existing stakeholders
seeking a combination, including corporate divestitures.
We expect this network will provide our
management team with a robust flow of EV acquisition opportunities. In
addition, we anticipate that target EV Business candidates will be brought to
our attention by various unaffiliated sources, which may include investment
market participants, private equity groups, investment banking firms,
consultants, accounting firms and large business enterprises. Upon completion
of this offering, members of our management team will communicate with their
network of relationships to articulate the parameters for our search for a
target company and a potential Business acquisition and begin the process of
pursuing and reviewing potential leads.
Acquisition/Business
acquisition Criteria
Consistent with this strategy, we have identified
the following general criteria and guidelines that we believe are important in
evaluating prospective target EV businesses. We will use these criteria and
guidelines in evaluating acquisition opportunities. While we intend to acquire EV
companies that we believe exhibit one or more of the following characteristics,
we may decide to enter into our initial EV Business acquisition with a target EV
business that does not meet these criteria and guidelines. We intend to acquire
EV companies that source, design, develop, manufacture and distribute
high-performance, affordable and fully electric vehicles:
·
have potential for significant growth, or can act as an
attractive EV acquisition platform, following our initial EV Business
acquisition;
·
have demonstrated market segment, category and/or cost
leadership and would benefit from our extensive network and insights;
·
provide operational platform and/or infrastructure for variety
of EV models and/or services, with the potential for revenue, market share,
footprint and/or distribution improvements;
·
are at the forefront of EV evolution around changing consumer
trends;
·
offer marketing, pricing and product mix optimization
opportunities across distribution channels;
·
are fundamentally sound companies that could be
underperforming their potential and/or offer compelling value;
·
offer the opportunity for our management team to partner with
established target management teams or business owners to achieve
long-term strategic and operational excellence, or, in some cases, where
our access to accomplished executives and the skills of the management of
identified targets warrants replacing or supplementing existing management;
·
exhibit unrecognized value or other characteristics,
desirable returns on capital and a need for capital to achieve the company's
growth strategy, that we believe have been misevaluated by the marketplace
based on our analysis and due diligence review; and
·
will offer an attractive risk-adjusted return for our
shareholders.
These criteria are not intended to be exhaustive.
Any evaluation relating to the merits of a particular initial EV Business
acquisition may be based, to the extent relevant, on these general guidelines as
well as other considerations, factors and criteria that our management may deem
relevant. In the event that we decide to enter into our initial EV Business
acquisition with a target EV Business that does not meet the above criteria and
guidelines, we will disclose that the target EV Business does not meet the
above criteria in our shareholder communications related to our initial EV Business
acquisition.
Acquisition/Business acquisition Process
In evaluating a prospective target EV business, we expect to
conduct a thorough due diligence review that will encompass, among other
things, meetings with incumbent management and employees, document reviews,
inspection of EV manufacturing facilities, as well as a review of financial and
other information. We will also utilize our operational and capital allocation
experience.
In order to execute
our business strategy, we intend to:
Assemble a team of EV
industry and financial experts: For each potential transaction, we
intend to assemble a team of EV industry and financial experts to supplement
our management's efforts to identify and resolve key issues facing a target EV
Business. We intend to construct an operating and financial plan that optimizes
the potential to grow shareholder value. With extensive experience investing in
both healthy and underperforming businesses, we expect that our management will
be able to demonstrate to the target EV business and its stakeholders that we
have the resources and expertise to lead the combined company through complex
and potentially turbulent market conditions and provide the strategic and
operational direction necessary to grow the business in order to maximize cash
flows and improve the overall strategic prospects for the company.
Conduct rigorous
research and analysis: Performing
disciplined, fundamental research and analysis is core to our strategy, and we
intend to conduct extensive due diligence to evaluate the impact that a
transaction may have on a target EV Business.
Business
acquisition driven by trend analysis: We intend to
understand the underlying purchase and industry behaviors that would enhance a
potential transaction's attractiveness. We have extensive experience in identifying
and analyzing evolving industry and consumer trends, and we expect to perform
macro as well as bottoms-up analysis on consumer and industry trends.
Acquire the target
company at an attractive price relative to our view of intrinsic
value: Combining rigorous analysis as well as input from industry and
financial experts, our management team intends to develop its view of the
intrinsic value of a potential Business acquisition. In doing so, our
management team will evaluate future cash flow potential, relative industry
valuation metrics and precedent transactions to inform its view of intrinsic
value, with the intention of creating a Business acquisition at an attractive
price relative to its view of intrinsic value.
Implement
operational and financial structuring opportunities: Our
management team has the ability to structure and execute a Business acquisition
that will establish a capital structure that will support the growth in
shareholder value and give it the flexibility to grow organically and/or
through strategic acquisitions. We intend to also develop and implement
strategies and initiatives to improve the business' operational and financial
performance and create a platform for growth.
Seek strategic
acquisitions and divestitures to further grow shareholder
value: Our management team intends to analyze the strategic direction
of the company, including evaluating potential non-core asset sales to
create financial and/or operational flexibility for the company to engage in
organic and/or inorganic growth. Our management team intends to evaluate
strategic opportunities and chart a clear path to take the EV business to the
next level after the Business acquisition.
After the initial EV Business acquisition, our management team
intends to apply a rigorous approach to enhancing shareholder value, including
evaluating the experience and expertise of incumbent management and making
changes where appropriate, examining opportunities for revenue enhancement,
cost savings, operating efficiencies and strategic acquisitions and
divestitures and developing and implementing corporate strategies and
initiatives to improve profitability and long-term value. In doing so, our
management team anticipates evaluating corporate governance, opportunistically
accessing capital markets and other opportunities to enhance liquidity,
identifying acquisition and divestiture opportunities and properly aligning
management and board incentives with growing shareholder value. Our management
team intends to pursue post-merger initiatives through participation on
the board of directors, through direct involvement with company operations
and/or calling upon a stable of former managers and advisors when necessary.
Strategic Approach
to Management. We intend to approach the management of a company as
strategy consultants would. This means that we approach business with
performance-based metrics based on strategic and operational goals, both
at the overall company level and for specific divisions and functions.
Corporate Governance
and Oversight. Active participation as board members can include many
activities ranging from conducting monthly or quarterly board meetings to
chairing standing (compensation, audit or investment committees) or special
committees, replacing or supplementing company management teams when necessary,
adding outside directors with industry expertise which may or may not include
members of our own board of directors, providing guidance on strategic and
operational issues including revenue enhancement opportunities, cost savings,
brand repositioning, operating efficiencies, reviewing and testing annual
budgets, reviewing acquisitions and divestitures and assisting in the accessing
of capital markets to further optimize financing costs and fund expansion.
Direct Operational
Involvement. Our management team members, through ongoing board service,
intend to actively engage with company management. These activities may
include: (i) establishing an agenda for management and instilling a sense of
accountability and urgency; (ii) aligning the interest of management with
growing shareholder value; (iii) providing strategic planning and management
consulting assistance, particularly in regards to re-invested capital and
growth capital in order to grow revenues, achieve more optimal operating scale
or eliminate costs; (iv) establishing measurable key performance metrics; and
(v) complementing product lines and brands while growing market share in
attractive market categories. These skill sets will be integral to shareholder
value creation.
M&A Expertise
and Add-On Acquisitions. Our management team
has expertise in identifying, acquiring and integrating synergistic,
margin-enhancing and transformational businesses. We intend to, wherever
possible, utilize M&A as a strategic tool to strengthen the financial
profile of an EV business we acquire, as well as its competitive positioning.
We would seek to enter into accretive Business
acquisitions where our management team or an acquired company's management team
can seamlessly transition to working together as one organization and team.
Access to Portfolio
Company Managers and Advisors. Through their
combined 32+ year history of investing in and controlling businesses, our
management team members have developed strong professional relationships with
former company managers and advisors. When appropriate, we intend to bring in
outside directors, managers or consultants to assist in corporate governance
and operational turnaround activities. The use of supplemental advisors should
provide additional resources to management to address time intensive issues
that may be delaying an organization from realizing its full potential
shareholder returns.
Our acquisition criteria, due diligence processes and value
creation methods are not intended to be exhaustive. Any evaluation relating to
the merits of a particular initial EV Business acquisition may be based, to the
extent relevant, on these general guidelines as well as other considerations,
factors and criteria that our management may deem relevant. In the event that
we decide to enter into our initial EV Business acquisition with a target EV
Business that does not meet the above criteria and guidelines, we will disclose
that the target EV Business does not meet the above criteria in our shareholder
communications related to our initial EV Business acquisition, which, as
discussed in this prospectus, would be in the form of tender offer documents or
proxy solicitation materials that we would file with the SEC.
Sourcing of
Potential Business acquisition Targets
We believe that the operational and transactional experience of
our management team and their respective affiliates, and the relationships they
have developed as a result of such experience, will provide us with a
substantial number of potential Business acquisition targets. These individuals
and entities have developed a broad network of contacts and corporate
relationships around the world. This network has grown through sourcing,
acquiring and financing businesses and maintaining relationships with sellers,
financing sources and target management teams. Our management team members have
significant experience in executing transactions under varying economic and
financial market conditions. We believe that these networks of contacts and
relationships and this experience will provide us with important sources of
investment opportunities. In addition, we anticipate that target EV Business
candidates may be brought to our attention from various unaffiliated sources,
including investment market participants, private equity funds and large
business enterprises seeking to divest noncore assets or divisions.
Other Acquisition
Considerations
We are not prohibited from pursuing an initial EV Business
acquisition with a company that is affiliated with our sponsor, officers or
directors. In the event we seek to complete our initial EV Business acquisition
with a company that is affiliated with our officers or directors, we, or a
committee of independent directors, will obtain an opinion from an independent
investment banking firm or another independent firm that commonly renders
valuation opinions for the type of company we are seeking to acquire or an
independent accounting firm that our initial EV Business acquisition is fair to
our company from a financial point of view.
Unless we complete our initial EV Business acquisition with an
affiliated entity, or our Board of Directors cannot independently determine the
fair market value of the target EV Business or businesses, we are not required
to obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm, another
independent firm that commonly renders valuation opinions for the type of
company we are seeking to acquire or from an independent accounting firm that
the price we are paying for a target is fair to our company from a financial
point of view. If no opinion is obtained, our shareholders will be relying on
the business judgment of our Board of Directors, which will have significant
discretion in choosing the standard used to establish
the fair market value of the target or targets, and different methods of
valuation may vary greatly in outcome from one another. Such standards used
will be disclosed in our tender offer documents or proxy solicitation materials,
as applicable, related to our initial EV Business acquisition.
Members of our management team may directly or indirectly own
our ordinary shares and/or private placement warrants following this offering,
and, accordingly, may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a
particular target EV Business is an appropriate business with which to
effectuate our initial EV Business acquisition. Further, each of our officers
and directors may have a conflict of interest with respect to evaluating a
particular Business acquisition if the retention or resignation of any such
officers and directors was included by a target EV Business as a condition to
any agreement with respect to our initial EV Business acquisition.
In the future any of our directors and our officers may have
additional, fiduciary or contractual obligations to other entities pursuant to
which such officer or director is or will be required to present acquisition
opportunities to such entity. Accordingly, subject to his or her fiduciary
duties, if any of our officers or directors becomes aware of an acquisition
opportunity which is suitable for an entity to which he or she has then current
fiduciary or contractual obligations, he or she will need to honor his or her
fiduciary or contractual obligations to present such acquisition opportunity to
such entity, and only present it to us if such entity rejects the opportunity.
We do not believe, however, that any fiduciary duties or contractual
obligations of our directors or officers would materially undermine our ability
to complete our Business acquisition.
Plan of Operations
While our major focus
is to find, acquire and manage an EV business, our real estate portfolio is
still alive and must figure in our plan of operation. We bought three single family residences (SFR) with a cost/carrying
amount of $1,452,897, in Los Angeles in 2019. We bought a fourth property in
June 2020. During the last fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, we sold two of
the four properties for a total amount of $1,205,000. We also exchanged one
property for debt owned the party. In the next twelve months, we plan on
selling the remaining property and adding the proceeds obtained from the sales
to finance our electric vehicles business plan.
The Company will
continue to evaluate its projected expenditures relative to its available cash
and to seek additional means of financing in order to satisfy the Company’s
working capital and other cash requirements.
Upon completion of
the acquisition of an Electric Vehicles
manufacturer or doing a joint venture (JV) with Electric Vehicles businesses
that source, design, develop, manufacture and distribute high-performance,
affordable and fully electric vehicles, our strategy will subsequently
include distribution of the electric vehicles
and related product lines to retailers and consumers across North America.
Insurance
We carry comprehensive general liability
coverage on our properties, with limits of liability customary within the
multi-family properties industry to insure against liability claims and related
defense costs. We are also insured, with limits of liability customary within
the real estate industry, against the risk of direct physical damage in amounts
necessary to reimburse us on a replacement cost basis for costs incurred to
repair or rebuild each property, including loss of rental income during the
reconstruction period.
Our primary lines of insurance coverage
are property, general liability and workers’ compensation. We believe that our
insurance coverages adequately insure our properties against the risk of loss
attributable to fire, earthquake, hurricane, tornado,
flood, terrorism and other perils, and adequately insure us against other risk.
Our coverage includes deductibles, retentions and limits that are customary in
the industry. We have established loss prevention, loss mitigation, claims
handling and litigation management procedures to manage our exposure.
Seasonality
Our business has not been, and we do not
expect it to become subject to, material seasonal fluctuations.
Employees
We
do not have a W-2 employee at the present. Frank Ikechukwu Igwealor, our
President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is our only
full-time staff As of March 31, 2021, pending when we could formalize an
employment contract for him. In addition to Mr. Igwealor, we
have three part-time unpaid staff who helps with bookkeeping and administrative
chores. Most of our part-time staff, officers, and directors will devote their
time as needed to our business and are expect to devote at least 15 hours per
week to our business operations. We plan on formalizing employment contract
for those staff currently helping us without pay. Furthermore, in the
immediate future, we intend to use independent contractors and consultants to
assist in many aspects of our business on an as needed basis pending financial
resources being available. We may use independent contractors and consultants
once we receive sufficient funding to hire additional employees. Even then, we
will principally rely on independent contractors for substantially all of our
technical and marketing needs.
The
Company has no written employment contract or agreement with any person.
Currently, we are not actively seeking additional employees or engaging any
consultants through a formal written agreement or contract. Services are
provided on an as-needed basis to date. This may change in the event that we
are able to secure financing through equity or loans to the Company. As our
company grows, we expect to hire more full-time employees.
Plan of Operations
Plan of
Operation for the Next Twelve (12) Months
While our major focus
is to find, acquire and manage an EV business, our real estate portfolio is
still alive and must figure in our plan of operation. As of the date of this
S-1 Registration, we have two available-for-sale
real estate properties with a carrying amount of $970,148. We bought three
single family residences (SFR) with a cost/carrying amount of $1,452,897, in
Los Angeles in 2019. We bought a fourth property in June 2020. During the
nine months ended September 30, 2020, we sold two of the four properties for a
total amount of $1,205,000. In the next twelve months, we plan on selling the
remaining property and use part of the proceeds to finance our electric
vehicles business plan.
The Company will
continue to evaluate its projected expenditures relative to its available cash
and to seek additional means of financing in order to satisfy the Company’s
working capital and other cash requirements.
Upon completion of
the acquisition of an Electric Vehicles
manufacturer or doing a joint venture (JV) with Electric Vehicles businesses
that source, design, develop, manufacture and distribute high-performance,
affordable and fully electric vehicles, our strategy will subsequently
include distribution of the electric vehicles
and related product lines to retailers and consumers across North America.
NIHK through CED Capital, currently own one real
property in Los Angeles County. The total cost of the property as at March 31,
2021 is $674,846.
Using the real
properties as collateral, we believe that we could always obtain the capital
needed to complete the rehabilitation of these three properties. Although
there is no assurance that we would be able to put the property to good use
such as renting them to tenants. If we are unable to put them to productive
use, we would be forced to sell them and use the money generated from the sales
to pay off the loans used to acquire them.
To effectively fund our business plan,
we must raise additional capital. But there can be no assurance that we will
be able to raise the capital necessary to acquire, own or hold these
specialized real properties. Moreover, there can be no assurance that we will
be able to raise the capital necessary to execute our business plan and also to
acquire, own or hold specialized real properties.
Our operations will be conducted on five
platforms comprising of: (Electric Vehicles, (2) Battery Technology, (3) (1)
specialized real properties; and (2) affordable housing real estate operation.
Within the next twelve months, we intend to use income generated from our three
properties to hire employees that would help us to raise capital to build our
company.
We
intend to implement the following tasks within the next twelve months:
-
Month 1-3: Phase 1 (1-3 months in duration; execute
the JV agreement and put it to good use)
-
Rollout the SPAC Offering;
-
Transform the design of the
website to become a marketplace for EV;
-
Acquire and consolidate revenue-generating

Operating expenses during the twelve months

-

the three months through June 30, 2021, we anticipate to incur general
and other operating expenses of $238,000.

For
the nine months through December 31, 2021 we anticipate to incur
additional general and other operating expenses of $728,000.
As noted above, the execution of our
current plan of operations requires us to raise significant additional capital
immediately. If we are successful in raising capital through the sale of shares
offered for sale in this Filing we believe that the Company will have
sufficient cash resources to fund its plan of operations for the next twelve
months. If we are unable to do so, our ability to continue as a going concern will
be in jeopardy, likely causing us to curtail and possibly cease operations.
We continually evaluate our plan of
operations discussed above to determine the manner in which we can most
effectively utilize our limited cash resources. The timing of completion of any
aspect of our plan of operations is highly dependent upon the availability of
cash to implement that aspect of the plan and other factors beyond our control.
There is no assurance that we will successfully obtain the required capital or
revenues, or, if obtained, that the amounts will be sufficient to fund our
ongoing operations. The inability to secure additional capital would have a
material adverse effect on us, including the possibility that we would have to
sell or forego a portion or all of our assets or cease operations. If we
discontinue our operations, we will not have sufficient funds to pay any
amounts to our stockholders.
Even if we raise additional capital in
the near future, if our current business plan is not successfully executed, our
ability to fund our biopharmaceutical research and development, or our
financial product deployment and services efforts would likely be seriously
impaired.
Because our working capital requirements
depend upon numerous factors there can be no assurance that our current cash
resources will be sufficient to fund our operations. At present, we have no
committed external sources of capital, and do not expect any significant
product revenues for the foreseeable future. Thus, we will require immediate additional
financing to fund future operations. There can be no assurance, however, that
we will be able to obtain funds on acceptable terms, if at all.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2021,
the Company had a working capital of $418,767, consisting of $89,021 in cash,
$387,376 in Trading Securities, and $57,630 in short-term liabilities.
For the three months

on financing activities, resulting in an increase in total cash of $87,392 and
a cash balance of $89,018 for the period. For the three months period ended

2020.
As of March 31, 2021,
the Company had a cash balance of $89,021 (i.e. cash is used to fund operations).
The Company does believe our current cash balances will be sufficient to allow
us to fund our operating plan for the next twelve months. However, our ability
to continue as a going concern is still dependent on us obtaining adequate
capital to fund operation or maintaining consecutive quarterly profitability.
If we are unable to obtain adequate capital, or maintaining consecutive
quarterly profitability, we could be forced to cease operations or
substantially curtail its drug development activities. These conditions could raise
substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. The
accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to
the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and
classification of liabilities should we be unable to continue as a going
concern.
Our principal sources
of liquidity are: (1) Crypto Currency Mining, (2) Real Estate Sales, and (3) Trading
Securities. In the past, we have been generating cash from loans to us by our
major shareholder. In order to be able to achieve our strategic goals, we need
to further expand our business and implement our business plan. To continue to
develop our business plan and generate sales, significant capital has been and
will continue to be required. Management intends to fund future operations
through private or public equity and/or debt offerings. We continue to engage
in preliminary discussions with potential investors and broker-dealers, but no
terms have been agreed upon. There can be no assurances, however, that
additional funding will be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Any
equity financing may be dilutive to existing shareholders. We do not currently
have any contractual restrictions on our ability to incur debt and, accordingly
we could incur significant amounts of indebtedness to finance operations. Any
such indebtedness could contain covenants which would restrict our operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
There are no
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 or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital
expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of
financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) requires estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,
revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and
liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.
The SEC has defined a company’s critical accounting policies as the ones that
are most important to the portrayal of the company’s financial condition and
results of operations, and which require the company to make its most difficult
and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of
matters that are inherently uncertain.
Based on this
definition, we have identified the critical accounting policies and judgments
addressed which are described in Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial
statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly
Report. Although we believe that our estimates, assumptions and judgments are
reasonable, they are based upon information presently available. Actual results
may differ significantly from these estimates under different assumptions,
judgments or conditions.
