BANG
HOLDINGS CORP.
NOTES
TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS
OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2017
NOTE
1 – ORGANIZATION, NATURE OF BUSINESS AND GOING CONCERN
(A)
Organization
Bang
Holdings Corp. was incorporated in the State of Colorado on May 13, 2014. The Company was organized to develop and sell E-Cigarette
products.
Bang
Vapor, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Florida on October 27, 2014. The Company was organized to develop and sell E-Cigarette
products.
Bang
Digital Media, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Florida on November 23, 2015. The Company was organized to develop digital
and electronic media.
(B)
Basis of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States for interim information Regulation S-K. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of a normal and recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included. Operating results for the nine month period ended September 30, 2017 may not necessarily be indicative of
the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017.
These
condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related
disclosures of the Company as of December 31, 2016 and for the year then ended, which were filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (“SEC”) on Form 10-K on April 10, 2017.
(C)
Principles of Consolidation
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bang Holdings Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiaries Bang
Vapor, Inc. and Bang Digital Media, Inc. and are hereafter referred to as (the “Company’). All intercompany accounts
have been eliminated in the consolidation.
(D)
Going Concern
For
the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company has incurred net operating losses and used cash in operations. As of September
30, 2017, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $4,285,608 and used cash in operations of $247,125. As of November 15, 2017,
the company is also in default on the repayment of its convertible notes payable totaling $585,000. Losses have principally occurred
as a result of the substantial resources required for marketing of the Company’s products and services which included the
general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development.
These
conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These condensed consolidated
financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability and classification
of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Management
believes that the actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plan provides the opportunity
for the Company to continue as a going concern.
NOTE
2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(A)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash instruments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
(B)
Use of Estimates in Financial Statements
The
presentation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America (“U.S. 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 condensed consolidated
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates. Significant estimates during the period covered by these condensed consolidated financial statements include
the valuation of website costs, valuation of deferred tax asset, stock based compensation and beneficial conversion features on
convertible debt.
(C)
Fair value measurements and Fair value of Financial Instruments
The
Company adopted FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. ASC Topic 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes
methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as
follows:
Level
1-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.
Level
2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar
assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived
from or corroborated by observable market data.
Level
3-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants
would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.
The
Company did not identify any assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheets at fair value in accordance
with ASC Topic 820.
Due
to the short-term nature of all financial assets and liabilities, their carrying value approximates their fair value as of the
balance sheet dates.
(D)
Computer and Equipment and Website Costs
Computer
Equipment and Website Costs are capitalized at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated by using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which is three to five years for all categories. Repairs and
maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for betterments and renewals are capitalized. The cost of computer
equipment and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts upon retirement or disposal with any resulting
gain or loss being recorded in operations.
Software
maintenance costs are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for enhanced functionality are capitalized.
The
Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 350-50-15, “Accounting for Web Site Development Costs.” Costs incurred in
the planning stage of a website are expensed as research and development while costs incurred in the development stage are capitalized
and amortized over the life of the asset, estimated to be three years.

and recorded an inventory valuation allowance of $72,332. In July 2017, the inventory was sold for $15,000 to a third party.
(F)
Revenue Recognition
The
Company recognizes revenue on arrangements in accordance with FASB ASC Topic. 605 “Revenue Recognition”. In all
cases, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the
service is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes revenue when
the products are shipped to the customers and collectability is reasonable assured.
The
Company recognizes revenue from advertising transactions when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred,
the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.
(G)Accounts
Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts
receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. The Company generally does not require
collateral to support customer receivables. The Company does not provide an allowance for doubtful. The Company determines if
receivables are past due based on days outstanding, and amounts are written off when determined to be uncollectible by management.
(H)
Significant Customers
The
Company’s business focuses on securing a smaller number of high quality, highly profitable projects, which sometimes results
in having a concentration of sales and accounts receivable among a few customers. This concentration is customary among the design
and build industry for a company of our size. As we continue to grow and are awarded more projects, this concentration will continue
to decrease.
At
September 30, 2017, the Company had two customers representing 62% and 38% of the total accounts receivable balance.
At
December 31, 2016, the Company had no accounts receivable balance.
For

(J)
Segments
The
Company operates in one segment and therefore segment information is not presented.
(K)
Loss Per Share
The
basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average
number of common shares during the period. The diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss by
the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding
is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. The Company had 1,769,107 shares
issuable upon the exercise of options and warrants and 1,937,495 shares issuable upon conversion of convertible notes payable
that were not included in the computation of dilutive loss per share because their inclusion is anti-dilutive for nine months
ended September 30, 2017. The Company had 969,277 shares issuable upon the exercise of options and warrants and 1,468,571 shares
issuable upon conversion of convertible notes payable that were not included in the computation of dilutive loss per share because
their inclusion is anti-dilutive for nine months ended September 30, 2016.
(L)
Stock-Based Compensation
The
Company recognizes compensation costs to employees under FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Under
FASB ASC Topic. 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based
on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required
to provide services. Share based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance based awards,
share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their
fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.
Equity
instruments issued to other than employees are recorded on the basis of the fair value of the instruments, as required by FASB
ASC Topic 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees. In general, the measurement date is when either a (a) performance commitment,
as defined, is reached or (b) the earlier of (i) the non-employee performance is complete or (ii) the instruments are vested.
The measured value related to the instruments is recognized over a period based on the facts and circumstances of each particular
grant as defined in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.
(M)
Income Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes under FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC 740-10-25”). Under ASC 740-10-25,
deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial
statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities
are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are
expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax
rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
(N)
Shipping and Handling Costs
The
Company includes shipping and handling fees billed to customers as revenue and shipping and handling costs to customers as cost
of revenue.
(O)
Reclassifications

(P)
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In
August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-15,
Presentation of
Financial Statements-Going Concern.
The Update provides U.S. GAAP guidance on management’s responsibility in evaluating
whether there is substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern and about related footnote disclosures.
For each reporting period, management will be required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial
doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date the financial statements are
issued. This Accounting Standards Update is the final version of Proposed Accounting Standards Update 2013-300-Presentation of
Financial Statements (Topic 205): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Going Concern Presumption, which has been
deleted. The amendments in this update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual
periods and interim periods thereafter. We adopted the provisions of ASU 2014-15 on January 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU
2014-15 did not materially impact our condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In
March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-06, “Derivatives and Hedging” (topic 815). The FASB issued this update to
clarify the requirements for assessing whether contingent call (put) options that can accelerate the payment of principal on debt
instruments are clearly and closely related to their debt hosts. An entity performing the assessment under the amendments in this
update is required to assess the embedded call (put) options solely in accordance with the four-step decision sequence. The updated
guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years.
Early adoption of the update is permitted. We adopted the provisions of ASU 2016-06 on January 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2016-06
did not materially impact our condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In
April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (topic 718). The FASB issued
this update to improve the accounting for employee share-based payments and affect all organizations that issue share-based payment
awards to their employees. Several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions are simplified, including:
(a) income tax consequences; (b) classification of awards as either equity or liabilities; and (c) classification on the statement
of cash flows. The updated guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods
within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the update is permitted. We adopted the provisions of ASU 2016-09 on January 1, 2017.
The adoption of ASU 2016-06 did not materially impact our condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or
cash flows.
In
August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash
Payments.” ASU No. 2016-15 addresses specific cash flow classification issues where there is currently diversity in practice
including debt prepayment and proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims. ASU 2016-15 is effective for annual periods beginning
after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on
its condensed consolidated financial statements.
Other
recent accounting pronouncements issued by FASB (including the Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA and the SEC, did not or
are not believed by the Company management, to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future condensed consolidated
financial statements.

Corp. and the notes to those financial statements that are included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. This discussion includes forward-looking
statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and
intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements
as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under the Risk Factors and Business sections in the financial statements
and footnotes included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed on April 10, 2017 for the year ended December 31, 2016 Words such
as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,”

Business
Overview
Bang
Holdings Corp was incorporated in the state of Colorado on May 13, 2014. It is a brand management and digital advertising company
that provides content and an influencer-based marketing network to the cannabis industry. We are a development-stage company and
since our inception we have generated only minimal revenues from business operations.
Bang
Holdings Corp wholly owns, Bang Digital Media, a cannabis focused digital media company. Bang Holdings Corp. dissolved a wholly
owned subsidiary Bang Vapor, an e-juice company, In July 2017.
Bang
Digital Media is the hub for all ‘cannabusiness’ related advertising, content creation, technology and marketing.
It consists of two divisions, the multi-platform 4TTnetwork, and a network of social media influencers that we call the Green
Monkey Network.
The
4TTnetwork is comprised primarily of specifically targeted audiences. These are 4TwentyToday, VaporBang, AmericanToker and 4TT/V
which cross the social media platforms of Facebook, Twitter, Massroots, Instagram, SnapChat and YouTube.
4TwentyToday
and AmericanToker are digital, multi-platform channels that enables us to target advertising for Bang Holdings products and services
across social media platforms. We currently have in excess of 2.6M users of our network, with a steady growth rate of around three
thousand subscribers per week. By continuing to create targeted, quality content for this community on a daily basis. 4TwentyToday
has, for example, created one of the most actively engaged marijuana pages on Facebook. This has built high levels of trust and
goodwill in the community, which will be convertible to revenues once we have reached a critical mass of users.
Using
the same skillset, we developed VaporBang – a digital, multi-platform community for vaping enthusiasts. At more than 86,900
strong, one of the largest vaping communities on Facebook. This enables us to carry out beta testing of products to this targeted
audience and to develop strong recognition for the Bang brand.
Our
most successful post on Facebook in 2016 had 15.6 million views, leading to 1,832,507 “reactions,” 610,000 “shares,”
and 164,000 “comments.” The post was created to build upon our social media footprint related to our business, not
specifically towards our products.
On Facebook alone between July 2016 and June 2017, Bang Digital
Media’s pages accumulated 478.9M impressions, 46.2M engagements, and 65.1M video views.
The
‘Green Monkey Network’ is a network of social media influencers who are open to working as ambassadors in the marijuana
industry. These influencers expand the Bang network by more than 12 million users.
Ultimately,
the KPI (Key Performance Indicator) of Bang Digital Media is in the direct and expanded growth of our networks. By continuing
to grow 4TwentyToday and the ‘Green Monkey Network’ to 100 million users we will have the digital reach to propel
marijuana-friendly brands into the spotlight.
Bang Vapor was a marketer of vaporizer
pens and E-liquid for the vaporizer industry, through the use of a razor and razor blade model. “Electronic cigarettes”
or “e-cigs” and “vaporizers” are battery-powered products that enable users to inhale nicotine vapor without
smoke, tar, ash or carbon monoxide.
Bang
Vapor completed its soft launch in the first quarter of 2016. Due to costs involved in meeting the new deeming regulations imposed
by the FDA on E-liquid, Bang Vapor will not be sustainable or profitable moving forward. During the first quarter of 2017, all
Bang Vapor digital property - i.e. Facebook and other social media pages, created content, subscriber lists, etc. have been transferred
to Bang Digital Media.

Company’s marketing strategy is a multi-pronged approach that includes viral marketing strategies, celebrity & social

2,600,000 subscribers across various social media platforms, including, but not limited to, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, and
MassRoots.
Viral
Marketing:
The marketing team aims to produce “hits” through the release of content developed by the company
on 4TwentyToday’s “YouTube” and “Facebook” pages, other social media, and our website. A portion
of our marketing budget will be allocated to developing viral videos produced by our CEO, Steve Berke. Mr. Berke has had significant
successes popularizing YouTube videos in the past, including, “Pot Shop,” which generated around 14.5 million views.
In addition to Mr. Berke’s YouTube successes, his two campaigns for mayor of Miami Beach received national coverage, including
the cover of the New York Times, the cover of the Huffington Post and a 6-page spread in Maxim magazine. Mr. Berke was named one
of the top eight comedians to ever run for office by ABC News. We intend to capitalize on his popularity, and reputation as a
leading advocate for medical marijuana, through 4TwentyToday, a channel on YouTube and Facebook to promote the Company.
Our
research has shown there are three distinct user groups in the vapor space; the hardcore vapor, ex-smokers/smokers wanting to
replace their nicotine addiction, and marijuana users. Marijuana enthusiasts are familiar with vaping technology and are
a niche market that is easy for us to reach and promote our flavors and products to with limited competition from other competitors
in the vaporizer and e-liquid space.
Celebrity
and Social Influencer Endorsements:
We will build partnerships with influential social media personalities and celebrities
in several key genres to serve as brand ambassadors. Each brand ambassador will have their own affiliate website to sell Bang
products and make commissions off of each sale. By giving a unique platform to social media influencers to monetize their followings,
Bang Vapor will be able to build brand awareness and employ an army of influencers to sell product in order to become a leading
brand in the e-cig/vaporizer space.
Plan
of Operations
We intend to develop our business in the following areas:
|
●
|
Bang Digital Media
entered into an agreement with Elevation Ministries to run their digital marketing, social media, and to manage exploitation
rights of their ‘Church of Cannabis’ launching in Q2 2017. The two-year contract signed and announced in Q1 2017,
will be worth a minimum of $250K and potentially more than a $1 million with bonuses.
|
|
●
|
Bang Digital Media will continue to pursue new clients to coordinate digital strategy, social media management,
video production, web development, and other online marketing services.
|
|
●
|
Bang Digital Media
is building out a fully automated digital advertising platform, with a projected Q4 2017 launch. The platform allows publishers
to always receive the highest price for their advertising space, while advertisers can reach the maximum number of targeted
customers, including cannabis customers, at the best price.
|
If
we are unable to build our customer base or gain any clients, we will be forced to cease our development and/or marketing operations
until we raise money. Attempting to raise capital after failing in any phase of our development plan could be difficult. As such,
if we cannot secure additional proceeds, we will have to cease operations and investors would lose their entire investment.
We
intend to raise additional capital through private placements now that we have a quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board. If we need
additional cash but are unable to raise it, we will either suspend marketing operations until we do raise the cash, or cease operations
entirely. Other than as described in this paragraph, we have no other financing plans.
Financing
On August 22, 2014, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Platinum Partners Liquid
Opportunity Master Fund LP (“Platinum”) whereby the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock to the Company
at $0.35 per share for a purchase price of $350,000. In consideration for Platinum agreeing to purchase the 1,000,000 shares, the
Company agreed to issue to Platinum share purchase warrants entitling Platinum the right to acquire 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s
Common stock, at $0.35 per share. In October 2014, Platinum purchased the 10% Convertible Debenture for the aggregate amount of
$500,000. On September 25, 2015, Platinum exercised 285,714 warrants for cash proceeds of $100,000. On January 26, 2016 the related
party exercised 28,581 warrants for cash proceeds of $10,000. On March 16, 2016 the related party exercised 285,714 warrants for
cash proceeds of $100,000. The outstanding principal balance on the note at September 30, 2017 was $500,000. Accrued and unpaid
interest on the note at September 30, 2017 was $155,616. The Company is currently in default of the note, making the entire unpaid
principal and interest due and payable.
Results
of Operations
For
the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016
Revenue:
We have generated advertising revenue of $45,000 for the three month period ending September 30, 2017
compared to zero revenue of for the comparable three month period ended September 30, 2016.
In
July 2017, Bang Vapor liquidated inventory for $15,000 and ceased all operations.
Operating
Expenses:
We incurred operating expenses of
$164,212 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to $242,966 during the three months ended September 30,
2016, a decrease of $78,754 The decrease in operating expenses is primarily attributable to a decrease of $8,181 in sales and
marketing expenses, a decrease of $46,055 in general and administrative expenses, and a decrease of $24,518 in professional
fees. The decrease in sales and marketing is primarily due to a decrease in advertising and promotional expense of $11,870
offset by an increase in web development costs of $3,689. The decrease in general and administrative expense is primarily due
to a decrease in payroll and payroll related expenses of $36,334 and a decrease in transfer agent fees of $3,982. The
decrease in our professional fess was primarily due to higher consulting fees and accounting fees in 2016. These amounts were
higher by $40,015 and $13,095, respectively.
Interest
Expense:
Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was $14,925, primarily attributable to
the Company’s convertible notes. During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recorded interest expense
of $20,464 which included the amortization of loan discounts in interest expense.
Net
Loss:
We
had a net loss of $119,137 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to $263,430 for the three months ended September

for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to $699,802 during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, a decrease
of $8,755. The decrease in operating expenses is primarily attributable to a decrease of $47,528 in professional fees offset by
an increase of $9,621 in sales and marketing expenses and an increase of $29,152 in general and administrative expenses. The decrease
in professional fees is primarily due to a decrease in consulting fees of $45,250. The increase in sales and marketing is primarily
due to an increase in seminars and conferences of $4,538, an increase in advertising and promotion expense of $2,969, and an increase
in web development costs of $1,434. The increase in general and administrative expense is primarily due to an increase of $13,095
in stock options expenses.

30, 2016, a decrease of $112,919. The decrease in net loss is primarily due increase in revenue and to the decrease in operating
expenses.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Liquidity
is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise
operate on an ongoing basis. We have been funding our operations through the sale of our common stock and loans.
Our
primary uses of cash have been for payroll and operating expenses. The following trends are reasonably likely to result in a material
decrease in our liquidity in the near term:
|
●
|
Development of a
Company website
|
|
●
|
Exploration of potential
marketing and advertising opportunities, and
|
|
●
|
The cost of being
a public company
|
Our
net revenues are not sufficient to fund our operating expenses. At September 30, 2017, we had a cash balance of $142,943.
We currently have no material commitments for capital expenditures. We estimate that based on current plans and assumptions, our
available cash will not be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements under our present operating expectations without further
financing. Other than working capital, we presently have no other alternative source of working capital. We may need to raise
significant additional capital to fund our operating expenses, pay our obligations, and grow our company. Therefore,
our future operations may be dependent on our ability to secure additional financing. Financing transactions may include
the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. However, the trading price
of our common stock and a downturn in the U.S. equity and debt markets could make it more difficult to obtain financing through
the issuance of equity or debt securities. Even if we are unable to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur
unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force
us to seek alternative financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional
dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common
stock. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we will likely be required to curtail our marketing and development plans
and possibly cease our operations.
We
anticipate that depending on market conditions and our plan of operations, we may incur operating losses in the foreseeable future.
Management has determined that additional capital will be required in the form of equity or debt securities. In addition, if we
cannot raise additional short term capital we will be forced to continue to further accrue liabilities due to our limited cash
reserves. There are no assurances that management will be able to raise capital on terms acceptable to the Company. If we are
unable to obtain sufficient amounts of additional capital, we may be required to reduce the scope of our planned development,
which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results. If we obtain additional funds by selling any of our
equity securities or by issuing common stock to pay current or future obligations, the percentage ownership of our stockholders
will be reduced, stockholders may experience additional dilution, or the equity securities may have rights preferences or privileges
senior to the common stock. If adequate funds are not available to us when needed on satisfactory terms, we may be required to
cease operating or otherwise modify our business strategy.
Our
liquidity may be negatively impacted by the significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements, costs
associated with newly applicable corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002
and other rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We expect all of these applicable rules and regulations
to significantly increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time consuming and costly.
Going
Concern and Management’s Liquidity Plans
As
reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $4,285,608 at September
30, 2017 and a net loss of $637,917 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The Company has generated only minimal revenues
since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The
ability of the Company to continue its operations is dependent on management’s plans, which include the raising of capital
through debt and/or equity markets, with some additional funding from other traditional financing sources, including term notes,
until such time that funds provided by operations are sufficient to fund working capital requirements. The Company may need to
incur additional liabilities with certain related parties to sustain the Company’s existence. There can be no assurance
that the Company will be able to raise any additional capital.
The
Company may also require additional funding to finance the growth of our anticipated future operations as well as to achieve its
strategic objectives. There can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or terms acceptable to the Company,
if at all. In that event, the Company would be required to change its growth strategy and seek funding on that basis, if at all.
The
Company’s plan regarding these matters is to raise additional debt and/or equity financing to allow the Company the ability
to cover its current cash flow requirements and meet its obligations as they become due. There can be no assurances that financing
will be available or if available, that such financing will be available under favorable terms. In the event that the Company
is unable to generate adequate revenues to cover expenses and cannot obtain additional financing in the near future, the Company
may seek protection under bankruptcy laws. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis,
which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial
statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities
that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
Use
of Estimates in Financial Statements
The
presentation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America 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. Significant estimates
during the period covered by these financial statements include the valuation of website costs, valuation of deferred tax asset,
and stock based compensation.
Fair
value measurements and Fair value of Financial Instruments
The
Company adopted FASB ASC Topic 820,
Fair Value Measurements
. ASC Topic 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes
methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as
follows:
Level
1-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.
Level
2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar
assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived
from or corroborated by observable market data.
Level
3-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants
would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.
The
Company did not identify any assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheets at fair value in accordance
with ASC Topic 820.
Due
to the short-term nature of all financial assets and liabilities, their carrying value approximates their fair value as of the
balance sheet date.
Revenue
Recognition
The
Company recognizes revenue on arrangements in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 605,
Revenue Recognition
. In all cases,
revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service
is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes revenue when the products
are shipped to the customers and collectability is reasonable assured.
The
Company recognizes revenue from advertising transactions when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred,
the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.
Stock-Based
Compensation
The
Company recognizes compensation costs to employees under FASB ASC Topic 718,
Compensation – Stock Compensation.
Under FASB ASC Topic. 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements
based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees
are required to provide services. Share based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance
based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date
of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option
grant.
Equity
instruments issued to other than employees are recorded on the basis of the fair value of the instruments, as required by FASB
ASC Topic 505,
Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees
. In general, the measurement date is when either a (a) performance
commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) the earlier of (i) the non-employee performance is complete or (ii) the instruments
are vested. The measured value related to the instruments is recognized over a period based on the facts and circumstances of
each particular grant as defined in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-15,
Presentation of
Financial Statements-Going Concern.
The Update provides U.S. GAAP guidance on management’s responsibility in evaluating
whether there is substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern and about related footnote disclosures.
For each reporting period, management will be required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial
doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date the financial statements are
issued. This Accounting Standards Update is the final version of Proposed Accounting Standards Update 2013-300-Presentation of
Financial Statements (Topic 205): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Going Concern Presumption, which has been
deleted. The amendments in this update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual
periods and interim periods thereafter. We adopted the provisions of ASU 2014-15 on January 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU
2014-15 did not materially impact our condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In
March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-06, “Derivatives and Hedging” (topic 815). The FASB issued this update to
clarify the requirements for assessing whether contingent call (put) options that can accelerate the payment of principal on debt
instruments are clearly and closely related to their debt hosts. An entity performing the assessment under the amendments in this
update is required to assess the embedded call (put) options solely in accordance with the four-step decision sequence. The updated
guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years.
Early adoption of the update is permitted. We adopted the provisions of ASU 2016-06 on January 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2016-06
did not materially impact our condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In
April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (topic 718). The FASB issued
this update to improve the accounting for employee share-based payments and affect all organizations that issue share-based payment
awards to their employees. Several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions are simplified, including:
(a) income tax consequences; (b) classification of awards as either equity or liabilities; and (c) classification on the statement
of cash flows. The updated guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods
within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the update is permitted. We adopted the provisions of ASU 2016-09 on January 1, 2017.
The adoption of ASU 2016-06 did not materially impact our condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or
cash flows.
In
August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash
Payments.” ASU No. 2016-15 addresses specific cash flow classification issues where there is currently diversity in practice
including debt prepayment and proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims. ASU 2016-15 is effective for annual periods beginning
after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on
its condensed consolidated financial statements.
Other
recent accounting pronouncements issued by FASB (including the Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA and the SEC, did not or
are not believed by the Company management, to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future condensed consolidated
financial statements.
