SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements. Significant estimates made in preparing these financial statements include the estimate of useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, operating lease obligations, impairment of assets, the deferred tax valuation allowance, the fair value of stock options and derivative liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and, effective December 1, 2018 through September 30, 2019, the accounts of EllisLab Corp., its wholly owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with large commercial banks. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insures these balances, up to $250,000. All of the Company’s cash balances at December 31, 2019 and 2018 were insured. At December 31, 2019 and 2018, there were no cash equivalents.

 

Prepaid Expenses

 

Insurance premiums paid in advance of the policy coverage period are recorded as prepaid expenses and expensed over the policy coverage period.

 

Property and Equipment

 

The Company’s property and equipment is stated at cost, and is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the related asset as follows:

 

Computer equipment

3-5 years

Office furniture and equipment

7 years

 

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Significant renewals and betterments will be capitalized. At the time of retirement or other disposition of equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation will be removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss, if any, will be reflected in operations.

 

The Company assesses the recoverability of property and equipment by determining whether the depreciation and amortization of these assets over their remaining life can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows. The amount of equipment impairment, if any, will be measured based on fair value and is charged to operations in the period in which such impairment is determined by management.

 

Derivative Liabilities

 

We have identified the conversion features of our convertible notes payable and Series B preferred stock and certain stock options and warrants as derivatives. Where the number of common shares to be issued under these agreements is indeterminate, the Company has concluded that the equity environment is tainted, and all additional options, warrants and convertible debt and equity are included in the value of the derivatives. We estimate the fair value of the derivatives using the Black-Scholes pricing model and a multinomial lattice model based on projections of various potential future outcomes. We estimate the fair value of the derivative liabilities at the inception of the financial instruments, at the date of conversions to equity and at each reporting date, recording a derivative liability, debt discount, additional paid-in capital and a gain or loss on change in derivative liabilities as applicable. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements and probabilities of certain outcomes based on management projections. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management’s judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments require disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, we believe the amounts reported for cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, accrued interest, notes payable and convertible note payable approximate fair value because of their short maturities.

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

 

 

·             

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

 

 

 

 

·

Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

 

 

 

 

·

Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

  

We measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. Liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows at December 31, 2019 and 2018:

Revenue Recognition

 

On January 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition” (Topic 605). The Company had no operating revenues prior to the Merger. Effective December 1, 2018, the Company’s revenues, included in loss from discontinued operations, were derived primarily from the sale of monthly and annual tech support subscriptions and partnership fees, and from software applications that customers purchase via the Company’s online store. Sales were processed using a real-time payment processing company. Revenue from product sales is recorded net of processing costs.

 

Under Topic 606, revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:

 

 

·             

identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;

 

·

identification of the performance obligations in the contract;

 

·

determination of the transaction price;

 

·

allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

 

·

recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

 

Amounts collected from customers for support subscriptions and partnership fees with a contract life of one month or greater are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized over the life of the contract.

 

Subsequent to the EllisLab Corp. Sale Agreement, which closed on September 30, 2019, the Company does not have any sources of revenues.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk and Major Customers

 

EllisLab Corp. customers were the end-consumers that purchase its products from EllisLab Corp.’s online store. Therefore, the Company does not have any individual customers that represent any more than a fraction of its revenue.

 

Income (Loss) per Share

 

Basic net income or loss per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income or loss per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the dilutive potential common share equivalents then outstanding. Potential dilutive common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants to acquire common stock, using the treasury stock method and the average market price per share during the period, and shares issuable upon exercise of convertible notes payable and convertible preferred stock.

   

Basic weighted average number common shares outstanding are reconciled to diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding as follows:

Operating Lease

 

On September 5, 2017, we entered into an operating sublease for office space. The base rent for the sublease is $1,000 per month for a period of one year and month-to-month thereafter.

 

On January 1, 2019, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 842, “Leases.” ASC 842 requires recognition of assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leases and new disclosures about leases. We adopted ASC 842 using the optional modified retrospective transition method. Under this transition method, we did not recast the prior period financial statements presented.

 

The adoption of ASC 842 resulted in the measurement and recognition of an operating lease liability and corresponding right-of use asset (included in other assets) in the amount of $18,352 as of January 1, 2019. The operating lease liability was measured as the present value of assumed remaining lease payments using an estimated incremental borrowing rate. We amortize the right-of-use asset over the term of the lease.

 

Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, 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. 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.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. We incurred no research and development costs for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

 

Advertising Costs

 

We expense the cost of advertising and promotional materials when incurred. We incurred no material advertising costs for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award granted using either the Black-Scholes option pricing model or a multinomial lattice model based on projections of various potential future outcomes and recognized over the period in which the award vests. For stock awards no longer expected to vest, any previously recognized stock compensation expense is reversed in the period of termination. The stock-based compensation expense is included in general and administrative expenses.

 

Comprehensive Loss

 

Comprehensive loss is the same as net loss for all years presented.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain amounts in the prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes” (Income Taxes Topic 740). The amendments in this ASU simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general provision of Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify General Accepted Accounting Principles for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing practice. For public entities, the amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption of the amendments is permitted. The Company is currently unable to determine the impact on its financial statements of the implementation of this ASU.

 

Although there are several other new accounting pronouncements issued or proposed by the FASB, which the Company has adopted or will adopt, as applicable, the Company does not believe any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
