2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The significant accounting policies of the Company are disclosed in Note 2 to the Notes to Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 20, 2023. The following summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s interim 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 of SCS, its wholly owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Intangible Assets

 

The identifiable intangible assets acquired in the SCS acquisition are amortized using the straight-line method over an estimated life of 5 years.

 

Derivative Liabilities

 

We have identified the conversion features of our convertible notes payable and certain stock options 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, 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.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, all convertible notes payable that created a tainted equity environment were extinguished; therefore, all derivative liabilities were eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

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 March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we believe the amounts reported for cash, accounts payable, accounts payable – related party, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, accrued interest, notes payable and certain notes 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.  Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“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 1 measurements) 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. As of March 31, 2023, we had no liabilities measured at fair value.  Liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2022:

Revenue Recognition

 

We have adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606) pursuant to which 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.

 

Through its wholly owned subsidiary, the Company acts as an intermediary or agent to facilitate a platform through which property owners market billboards to wireless telephone carriers for placement of wireless communications network equipment. Contracts have been signed among the Company, the property owner, and the wireless telephone operator.  Monthly payments are received by the Company from the wireless carriers, with the Company paying the property owner a percentage of revenues ranging from 70% to 85%.  The net amount is retained by the Company as consideration for its intermediary services and recorded as revenues in the accompanying statements of operations.

 

Lease Accounting

 

Pursuant to the underlying contracts, the Company does not own the property and equipment which is leased by the cell phone carriers but acts as an intermediary or agent between the property owner and the cell phone carriers.  Therefore, in accordance with ASC 840 and 841, “Leases,” the Company records revenues net of amounts received from cell phone carriers and payments made to property owners.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk, Major Customers, and Major Vendors

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company received payments from two cell phone carriers, with one carrier representing substantially all payments.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had one landlord receiving all Company payments for lease of billboard site locations.

 

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 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.

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

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 or straight-line. 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.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

There were no new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and through the date of filing of this report that the Company believes will have a material impact on its financial statements.
