Accounting Policies [Abstract]    
Use of Estimates and Assumptions  

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (ii) the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and (iii) the reported amount of net revenues and expenses recognized during the periods presented. Adjustments made with respect to the use of estimates often relate to improved information not previously available. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of financial statements; accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates. The Company’s most significant estimate relates to the valuation of its convertible note.

Legal  

Legal

 

The Company is subject to legal proceedings, claims and liabilities which arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues for losses associated with legal claims when such losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. These accruals are adjusted as additional information becomes available or circumstances change. Legal fees are charged to expense as they are incurred.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of December 31, 2018 or September 30, 2018. At December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018, cash includes cash on hand and cash in the bank. The Company maintains its cash in accounts held by large, globally recognized banks which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits as guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The FDIC insures these deposits up to $250,000. At December 31, 2018, $12,802,481 of the Company’s cash balance was uninsured. The Company has not experienced any losses in cash.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of September 30, 2018 and 2017. At September 30, 2018 and 2017, cash includes cash on hand and cash in the bank. The Company maintains its cash in accounts held by large, globally recognized banks which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits as guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The FDIC insures these deposits up to $250,000. As of September 30, 2018, $13,806,346 of the Company’s cash balance was uninsured. The Company has not experienced any losses on cash.

Fixed Assets  

Fixed Assets

 

Fixed assets are recorded at cost and depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method for financial statement purposes. Equipment and furniture are depreciated over an estimated useful life of three (3) to five (5) years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of the related lease term or a useful life of ten (10) years. Software is depreciated over an estimated useful life of three (3) years.

Long-Lived Assets  

Long-Lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable or that the useful lives of these assets are no longer appropriate. Each impairment test is based on a comparison of the undiscounted future cash flows to the recorded value of the asset. If impairment is indicated, the asset is written down to its estimated fair value. There was no impairment recorded during the years ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments  

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments consisted primarily of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, deferred revenue, convertible note payable, as well as embedded conversion features. The carrying amounts of such financial instruments approximate their respective estimated fair value due to the short-term maturities and approximate market interest rates of these instruments.

 

Fair value is focused on an exit price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Within the measurement of fair value, the use of market-based information is prioritized over entity specific information and a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements is used based on the nature of inputs used in the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date.

 

The three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements is defined as follows:

 

  Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
     
  Level 2 – inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability other than quoted prices, either directly or indirectly, including inputs in markets that are not considered to be active;
     
  Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

 

The fair values of the embedded conversion features in the Company’s convertible notes and of the warrants issued by the Company were determined using level 2 measurements and are discussed in further detail in Notes 5 and 8, respectively.

Convertible Debt and Embedded Derivatives

Convertible Debt and Embedded Derivatives

 

Convertible debt is accounted for under the guidelines established by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options. ASC 470-20 governs the calculation of an embedded beneficial conversion, which is treated as an additional discount to the instruments where derivative accounting does not apply. This applies during the period for which embedded conversion features are either fixed or not yet available to the holder. The amount of the beneficial conversion feature may reduce the carrying value of the instrument. The discounts relating to the initial recording of the derivatives or beneficial conversion features are accreted over the term of the debt.

 

When equity instruments, such as common stock and/or warrants, are issued with convertible debt, the net proceeds from the transaction are allocated to the convertible debt and equity instruments based on their relative fair values. The proceeds allocated to the equity instruments may reduce the carrying value of the convertible debt, and such discount is amortized to interest expense over the term of the debt.

 

In the event a convertible note has an embedded conversion feature which, among other features, allows an unlimited number of common shares to be issued upon conversion since the conversion price is based on the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock, the Company records a derivative liability, which is marked to market at each reporting period and charged to the statement of operations in accordance with ASC 815, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities.

Convertible Debt

 

Convertible debt is accounted for under the guidelines established by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options. ASC 470-20 governs the calculation of an embedded beneficial conversion, a derivative instrument, which is treated as an additional discount to the instruments where derivative accounting does not apply. This applies during the period for which embedded conversion features are either fixed, contingently convertible, or cash or net settlement is in control of the Company. When equity instruments, such as warrants, are issued with convertible debt, the net proceeds from the transaction are allocated to the convertible debt and equity instruments based on their relative fair values. The proceeds allocated to the equity instruments may reduce the carrying value of the convertible debt, and such discount is amortized to interest expense over the term of the debt. The amount of the warrants and beneficial conversion feature will reduce the carrying value of the debt instrument to zero, but no further. In the event the Company has the option to pay the convertible note at a premium ranging within the first six (6) months before they become convertible, the Company will record the prepayment if intended. The discount relating to the initial recording of the original issue discount, issue cost, warrant and beneficial conversion feature are accreted, together with the premium, over the estimated term of the debt, which is generally 180 days from the date of issuance.

 

The conversion feature embedded in the Company’s note may become variable upon the event of default or upon the passage of time in the event the Company does not repay the notes, at a premium, at 180 days from issuance of the note. If the conversion price is adjusted based on a discount to the market price of the Company’s common stock, the number of shares upon conversion is potentially unlimited. In the event we cannot control the net share settlement and cash settlement, we record the embedded conversion feature as a derivate instrument, at fair value. The excess of fair value of the embedded conversion feature, together with the original issue discounts, warrants, and issue costs over the face value of the debt, is recorded as an immediate charge in the accompanying statements of operations and cash flows. Each reporting period, the Company will compute the estimated fair value of derivatives and record changes to operations. The discounts are accreted over the term of the debt, which is generally nine months after the notes become convertible, using the effective interest method.

 

ASC 470-50, Extinguishments, require entities to record an extinguishment when the terms of the original note are significantly modified, defined as a greater than 10% change in expected cash flows. As a result of modifications made to one of the Company’s convertible notes during the reporting period, we recorded a loss as reported in the accompanying statements of operations and cash flows. 

Customer Concentration  

Customer Concentration

 

During the years ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, one customer accounted for 100% of revenues. The loss of this customer will have a significant impact on operations.

Revenue Recognition  

Revenue Recognition

 

Software license revenue is generally recognized when a signed contract or other persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the software has been electronically delivered, the license fee is fixed or is measured on a paid user basis, and collection of the resulting receivable is probable. When contracts contain multiple elements wherein Vendor-Specific Objective Evidence (“VSOE”) exists for all undelivered elements, we account for the delivered elements in accordance with the “Residual Method.” VSOE of fair value for maintenance and support is established by a stated renewal rate, if substantive, included in the license arrangement or rates charged in stand-alone sales of maintenance and support. Revenue from subscription license agreements, which include software, rights to unspecified future products and maintenance, is recognized ratably over the term of the subscription period. When the fair value of VSOE of post contract customer support cannot be determined, the revenue is recognized ratably over the contract period. In June 2014, the Company entered into an agreement to provide software and support to a third party for which no VSOE for any elements is known. Since the customer requested additional modifications to the software before it could be used, delivery of the use of the license was not achieved until December 2015. The only remaining undelivered element was post contract support services, and accordingly, the revenues were recognized on a pro rata basis prospectively over the 30 months ending June 10, 2018 per the terms of the related contracts. Deferred revenue results from fees billed to or collected from customers for which revenue has not yet been recognized.

 

The Company had deferred revenue of $0 and $316,248 as of September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation  

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company measures the cost of services provided by employees and non-employees in exchange for an award of an equity instrument based on the grant-date fair value of the award. All equity awards granted to employees and non-employees during the years ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 were fully vested upon grant. As such, compensation cost was recognized at the time of the grant.

Income Taxes  

Income Taxes

 

The Company utilizes the asset and liability method in accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards and 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 year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets unless it is more likely than not that the value of such assets will be realized.

 

The Company uses the two-step approach to recognize and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not, that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount, which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating the Company’s tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments. The Company did not record any liabilities for uncertain tax positions during the years ended September 30, 2018 or 2017.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

 

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. The weighted average number of shares is calculated by taking the number of shares outstanding and weighting them by the amount of time that they were outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options, warrants, and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised or equity awards vest, resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the earnings of the Company. As of December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018, the Company had 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock outstanding, which are convertible into 1,500,000 shares of common stock.

 

Diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share during periods where net losses are incurred since the inclusion of the potential common stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive as a result of the net loss. During the three months ended December 31, 2018, 25,015,866 warrants and 1,000,000 shares of convertible preferred stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive. During the three months ended December 31, 2017, 874,000 warrants and 1,000,000 shares of convertible preferred stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

 

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. The weighted average number of shares is calculated by taking the number of shares outstanding and weighting them by the amount of time that they were outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options, warrants, and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised or equity awards vest resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the earnings of the Company. As of September 30, 2018, and 2017, the Company had 1,000,000 and 10,000,000 shares, respectively, of preferred stock outstanding, which are convertible into 1,500,000 and 15,000,000 shares, respectively, of common stock.

 

Diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share during periods where net losses are incurred since the inclusion of the potential common stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive as a result of the net loss. During the year ended September 30, 2018, 25,015,866 warrants and 1,000,000 shares of convertible preferred stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive. During the year ended September 30, 2017, 725,000 warrants and 10,000,000 shares of convertible preferred stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Recent Accounting Announcements

Recent Accounting Announcements

 

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issues Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) to amend the authoritative literature in the ASC. There have been a number of ASUs to date that amend the original text of the ASC. Other than those discussed below, the Company believes those updates issued-to-date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to the Company, or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820) – Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, to modify the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The ASU removes certain disclosure requirements related to transfers between fair value hierarchy levels and valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. It modifies certain disclosure requirements for investments in entities that calculate net asset value. It adds certain disclosure requirements regarding gains and losses for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements and unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the effect this guidance will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) – Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, to expand the scope of Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, which currently only includes share-based payments to employees, to include share-based payments issued to nonemployees for goods or services. Thus, accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees and employees will be substantially aligned. ASU 2018-07 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the effect this guidance will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 840), to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. Early adoption of the amendments in this standard is permitted for all entities, and the Company may recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 840): Targeted Improvements, to provide a new transition method and practical expedient for separating components of a contract. The amendments in this standard are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the effect this guidance will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Under this guidance, revenue is recognized when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. Early adoption is not permitted. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2014-09 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements or related disclosures.

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260) – Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features, to change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments. As a result, a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value as a result of the existence of a down round feature. For freestanding equity-classified instruments, the amendments require the effect of the down round feature to be recognized in earnings per share when it is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS. ASU 2017-11 is effective in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and in interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company early adopted ASU 2017-11 during the year ended September 30, 2017.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820) – Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, to modify the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements.

It modifies certain disclosure requirements for investments in entities that calculate net asset value. It adds certain disclosure requirements regarding gains and losses for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements and unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements.
