FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. We use words such as "anticipate," "believe," "plan," "expect," "future," "intend," and similar expressions to identify such forward-looking statements. Investors should be aware that all forward-looking statements contained within this filing are good faith estimates of management as of the date of this filing and actual results may differ materially from historical results or our predictions of future results.

General Financial Matters

Our auditor’s report on our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 contained a going concern qualification expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our liabilities significantly exceed our assets and we have yet to generate revenue from operations. Our primary creditor has claimed a default under the Promissory Note we issued to such creditor. For us to continue to achieve our business plan we need to raise significant additional capital of which there can be no assurance. An investment in the Company would create a significant risk of loss to an investor.

Overview

Spirits Time International, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on October 18, 2005 under the laws of the State of Nevada. The Company was formed under the name of Sears Oil and Gas Corporation but effective October 22, 2018, our name was changed to Spirits Time International, Inc. to reflect our new business direction.

At the time the Company was organized, its principal business objective was to engage in the oil and gas business. The Company became a public reporting company by filing a Form S-1 Registration Statement with the SEC that was declared effective July 25, 2008. The Company’s business operations in the oil and gas business were not successful and its initial principals sold controlling interest in the Company. Prior to the Asset Acquisition (as defined below), we were a “shell company” (as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). As a result of the Asset Acquisition, we ceased to be a “shell company” and intend to commence operations in the beverage industry (initially in the tequila beverage industry).

We have limited operating history, no revenue, and negative working capital.

On September 28, 2018, we completed and closed upon an Asset Acquisition Transaction (the “Acquisition”) and a Loan Transaction pursuant to which we intend to engage in the business of marketing tequila products under the brand name of Tequila Alebrijes. We acquired the Tequila Alebrijes brand name, trademark and certain other assets from Human Brands International, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Human Brands”).

We intend to look for other beverage brand acquisition transactions in the future.

On April 14, 2023 the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Merger Agreement”) with BioSculpture Technology, Inc. (“BioSculpture”) to, subject to a number of conditions, acquire 100% of the ownership of BioSculpture, as further described in the Company’s Form 8-K filed April 20, 2023. There will be many conditions to closing of the Merger Agreement, many of which are outside of the parties’ control, and we cannot predict whether these conditions will be satisfied. There are no assurances when or if closing of the merger as set out in the Merger Agreement will occur.

Plan of Operations

Prior to the Asset Acquisition transaction, we were a shell company with no substantive operations. The purpose of the Company was to seek and investigate potential assets, properties or businesses to acquire while complying with the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for so long as we are subject to those requirements.

We have developed a business plan to obtain rights to develop a portfolio of beverage (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) product brands and to distribute and market beverage products nationally and internationally. Our first brand is the “Tequila Alebrijes” brand of tequila. We obtained the trademark for this brand and the rights to market and distribute Tequila Alebrijes products. Currently, the “Tequila Alebrijes” brand of tequila is our only product brand.

We do not intend to produce beverage products but rather we intend to acquire brand and marketing rights for beverage products and thereafter commercialize our products either directly by selling to retailers and point of sale locations or through brand management agreements and/or distribution agreements with other companies involved in the beverage distribution business.

Acquisition of Assets

On September 13, 2018, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement to purchase inventory and intangible assets from Human Brands, as described above. As of the periods presented and date of this filing, we have no additional assets, other than a nominal amount of cash.

The Company’s Business Plan - General

Our current business plan is to engage in the business of acquiring rights to market non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverage brands. As described above, our first acquisition was the Tequila Alebrijes brand of tequila. Currently, that is our only product brand.

Demand for premium distilled spirits brands is driving growth and transforming the distilled spirits industry, driven by several key trends including an increasingly global market for alcoholic beverages, better and more well-defined channels of distribution, an international and domestic rise of cocktail culture, the growing popularity for distilled spirits, a greater desire among consumers wanting to know more about the history and production methods behind what they drink, an increase in the willingness of consumers to enjoy experimenting and trying new brands, categories and styles of alcoholic beverages, the identifiable industry trend showing increasing demand for a broader variety and new brands at the point of sale, and a higher level of appreciation of quality over quantity, with premium and above offerings gaining market share.

Amidst the background where industry leading producers are shifting more emphasis on premium brand offerings, an emerging wave of small craft distillers is capturing an increasing market share. As the craft boom continues, we anticipate that larger brands will increase their emphasis on craft qualities and will look to emerging brands gaining consumer support as acquisition candidates.

We intend, subject to adequate financing, to build a portfolio of beverage brands of non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages. We anticipate that we may be able to use our securities to acquire interests in additional beverage brands and as incentive for brand managers and other product distributors.

Ultimate Business Goal

One of our ultimate business goals is to develop critical mass and a diverse portfolio of distilled spirits and non-alcoholic brands to make us an attractive acquisition target or an attractive partner for other companies in the beverage industry.

To achieve this goal, we plan on developing diverse channels of distribution by building relationships with strong regional and local distributors. To support our distributors, we plan to work with brand managers to create marketing, support consumer awareness, and to develop demand at the retail level in liquor stores and bars.

Our planned operating strategy

Our business strategy relates to our Tequila Alebrijes product and potentially other distilled spirits brands and non-alcoholic brands. We have developed a strategy to commence and build operations in the premium spirits industry. Our strategy is as follows:

We anticipate that in order to achieve our marketing strategy for our Tequila Alebrijes brand and acquire and market other brands, we will be required to obtain significant capital from equity and debt sources. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain adequate additional capital as we need it or even if it is available, that it will be on terms and conditions that are acceptable and commercially reasonable. We anticipate that we will issue shares of our capital stock to raise additional capital, to attract third party distribution networks, attempt to acquire interests in other brands and for employee compensation.

Results of Operations

We have yet to generate any revenue from the acquisition of the tequila related assets and there can be no assurance we will be able to generate meaningful revenues in the near future. We anticipate that we must raise additional capital to develop a meaningful marketing program for our products and there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise adequate capital to market our products and develop active business operations.

Three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2023

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company had no revenue. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company incurred $564,639 of professional fees compared to $19,261 for the three months ended June 30, 2023. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company incurred $581,721 of professional fees compared to $37,787 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Such expenses consist primarily of legal and accounting fees, as well as annual fees required to maintain the Company’s corporate status. The increase is mainly the result of professional fees associated with the Merger Agreement described in the overview above and increased professional fees related to the Company maintaining its status and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company incurred $3,477 of selling, general and administrative expenses compared to $4,182 for the three months ended June 30, 2023. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company incurred $5,799 of selling, general and administrative expenses compared to $6,261 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company incurred $32,105 of interest expense on all notes payable compared to $30,453 for the three months ended June 30, 2023. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company incurred $63,689 of interest expense on all notes payable compared to $59,999 for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

As a result of the foregoing, the Company incurred a loss of $600,221 and $53,896, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 and a loss of $651,209 and $104,047, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Liquidity

As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $1,367 of cash and negative working capital of $1,551,170. This compares with cash of $493 and negative working capital of $1,434,561 as of December 31, 2023.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company used cash of $44,326 in operations consisting of the loss of $651,209 and a decrease in accounts payable – related party of $7,000 which was offset by non-cash stock based compensation of 534,600, changes in accounts payable and accrued interest of $73,192 and changes in accrued interest due to related parties of $6,091. This compares with $29,794 used in operations for the six months ended June 30, 2023 consisting of the loss of $104,047 and a decrease in accounts payable – related party of $2,000 which was offset by changes in accounts payable and accrued interest of $58,380 and changes in accrued interest due to related parties of $17,873.

There were no investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, financing activities provided $45,200 which consisted of proceeds from notes payable of $25,000 and proceeds from loans payable to related parties of $20,200. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, financing activities provided $29,200 which consisted of proceeds from notes payable of $8,000 and proceeds from loans payable to related parties of $21,200.

As a result of the foregoing, there was an increase in cash of $874 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 from the cash on hand as of December 31, 2023.

From the date of inception (October 18, 2005) to June 30, 2024, the Company has accumulated a deficit of $3,080,077, most of which were expenses relating to the initial development of the Company and maintaining reporting company status with the SEC. In order to survive as a going concern, the Company will require additional capital investments or borrowed funds to meet cash flow projections and carry forward our business objectives. There can be no guarantee or assurance that we can raise adequate capital from outside sources to fund the proposed business. Failure to secure additional financing would result in business failure and a complete loss of any investment made into the Company.

Our ability to continue as a going concern in the next 12 months depends on our ability to obtain sources of capital to fund our continuing operations and to fund our operations in the beverage industry. As of June 30, 2024, our remaining cash balance is not sufficient to cover our current liabilities, obligations and working capital needs for the balance of 2024. We will continue to rely on loans from management and/or affiliated shareholders or we may raise additional capital through an interim financing to meet our general cash flow requirements until such time as we are able to complete the acquisition of an operating company.

As described in Part II Item 3, the lender under the Secured Promissory Note has notified us of a claimed default under the Note. The Note is secured by all of the assets of the Company. We currently do not have cash available to repay the Note and there is no assurance that we will ever have liquid assets necessary to repay the Note.

Employees

As of the date of this report, we have no employees. Subject to adequate financing and business needs we will retain employees, third party consultants, agents and other service providers on an as needed basis.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that had or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company's financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. The term "off-balance sheet arrangement" generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with the Company is a party, under which the Company has (i) any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest; or (ii) a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.

Item 4. Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Securities and Exchange Commission defines the term “disclosure controls and procedures” to mean a Company's controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company maintains such a system of controls and procedures in an effort to ensure that all information which it is required to disclose in the reports it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified under the SEC's rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to principal executive and principal financial officers to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the objectives of timely alerting them to material information required to be included in the Company’s periodic SEC reports and of ensuring that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified. The Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer also concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report to provide reasonable assurance of the achievement of these objectives.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and includes those policies and procedures that:

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

We carried out an assessment, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and Interim CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our internal controls over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of June 30, 2024. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013). Based on that assessment and on those criteria, our CEO and Interim CFO concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of June 30, 2024. The principal basis for this conclusion is (i) failure to engage sufficient resources regarding our accounting and reporting obligations during our startup and (ii) failure to fully document our internal control policies and procedures.

This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. The management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only the management’s report in this quarterly report.

The Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and Interim CFO, does not expect that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree or compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Changes in Internal Controls

There were no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or, to the Company's knowledge, in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company is currently not a party to any pending legal proceedings. As described in Part II, Item 3 of this Form 10-Q, we have been notified that Auctus Fund, LLC has claimed a default under the Promissory Note we issued to Auctus in September 2018. Although we are attempting to resolve this issue with Auctus, there can be no assurance that Auctus will not commence a legal proceeding in connection with such claimed default.

No director, officer, or affiliate of the Company and no owner of record or beneficial owner of more than 5% of the securities of the Company, or any associate of any such director, officer or security holder is a party adverse to the Company or has a material interest adverse to the Company in reference to pending litigation.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

This item is not applicable to smaller reporting companies.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

None

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities

On September 24, 2018, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Auctus Securities Purchase Agreement") under which it issued a Senior Secured Convertible Promissory note in an aggregate principal amount of $300,000 (the "Auctus Note") to Auctus Fund, LLC ("Auctus"). The principal amount of the Auctus Note accrues interest at the rate of 10% per annum. The Auctus Note calls for default interest at the rate of 24% per annum. The maturity date of the Auctus Note was September 24, 2019. The Auctus Note is secured by all of the assets of the Company. Auctus has the option to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal amount and accrued and unpaid interest of the Auctus Note into shares of the Company's common stock at the Auctus Conversion Price. The Auctus Conversion Price, subject to the adjustments described in the Auctus Note, shall equal the lesser of:

The Note provides that the conversion price may be adjusted downward upon the occurrence of certain events or the failure of certain events to occur.

The Auctus Note contains provisions relating to events and actions that, if to occur or not occur, would result in an Event of Default under the Auctus Note. One Event of Default is as follows:

The Company fails to (i) file a registration statement covering the Auctus (or a successor holder’s) (“Holder”) resale of all of the shares underlying the Auctus Note (the “Registration Statement”) within ninety (90) days following the Issue Date (as defined in the Auctus Note), (ii) cause the Registration Statement to become effective within one hundred ninety (190) days following the Issue Date, (iii) cause the Registration Statement to remain effective until the Note is satisfied in full, (iv) comply with the Registration Rights Agreement between the Company and Holder entered into in connection with the issuance of this Note, or (v) immediately amend the Registration Statement or file a new Registration Statement (and cause such Registration Statement to become immediately effective) if there are no longer sufficient shares registered under the initial Registration Statement for the Holder’s resale of all of the shares underlying the Note.

Under the Auctus loan documents, the registration statement for the shares underlying the Auctus Note was required to be filed by the Company on or about December 23, 2018. The Company did not file the required registration statement on that date. Subsequent to December 23, 2018, the Company had communication with Auctus in connection with a potential agreed upon delay in the filing of the registration statement, but no written agreement relating to a waiver or forbearance was entered into by the Company and Auctus.

Notification of Default

On April 25, 2019, the Company received a demand letter from Auctus’s legal counsel that stated, among other things, that the Company has defaulted on the Auctus Note pursuant to:

The demand letter further stated that as a result of such breaches and the default remedy provisions of the Note set forth therein at pages 20 and 21 thereof, as of April 25, 2019, the Company, owed Auctus at least $490,767 calculated as follows:

Outstanding principal of $300,000 + accrued interest of $12,178 + $15,000 liquidated damages relating back to the Auctus Note issuance date for breach of Section 3.1 + 50% liquidated damages of $163,589 for default under Sections other than Section 3.2.

Uncertainty of Outcome. We have communicated with Auctus regarding the matters described in this Item 3 but are unable to predict whether we will be able to enter into a workable resolution with Auctus. If not, Auctus could commence collection action against the Company and seek to foreclose on our assets and seek other remedies.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures

None.
