Part I

Item 1.Business

Reorganization Agreement

On September 6, 2016, BlackRidge Technology International, Inc. and BlackRidge Technology Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”, or “BlackRidge”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the "Reorganization Agreement") originally dated as of September 6, 2016 and amended on February 22, 2017 to update the number of common shares, warrants, and options granted and outstanding as of the closing date.

On February 22, 2017, we completed the actions contemplated by the Reorganization Agreement and merged with and into BlackRidge with BlackRidge continuing as the surviving corporation (“Reorganization”). Upon completion of the Agreement, we issued 3,783,791 shares of our newly designated Series A Preferred Stock and 12,825,683 shares of Common Stock to the stockholders of BlackRidge in exchange for all the issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Common Stock of BlackRidge.  Additionally, certain stockholders of the Company returned for cancellation a total of 16,284,330 shares of our Common Stock.  Upon the completion of the Reorganization, BlackRidge became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company had a total of 3,783,791 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and 21,790,683 shares of Common Stock outstanding, with the former BlackRidge stockholders owning 3,783,791 shares or 100% of Series A Preferred Stock and 12,825,683 shares or approximately 58.9% of Common Stock.  Upon completion of the Reorganization, we also had outstanding warrants entitling the holders to acquire a total of 18,541,579 shares of the Company's Common Stock at an average exercise price of $0.46 per share.  The Reorganization resulted in a change of control of the Company.  For accounting purposes, BlackRidge will be treated as the acquirer and the historical financial statements of BlackRidge will become the Company's historical financial statements.  The acquisition is intended to constitute a tax-free reorganization pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

At the closing of the Reorganization, Robert Graham was appointed as President, and John Bluher was appointed Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary.  In addition, Bruce Crane resigned from his position as a director and Robert Graham was appointed as a director of the Company to fill the vacancy created by such resignation.  John Hofman, our remaining director, resigned from such position effective following our compliance with rule 14f-1 promulgated under the Exchange Act, and John Hayes and Robert Lentz were appointed as directors of the Company effective at such time as Mr. Hofman's resignation became effective.

On March 31, 2017, the Company completed the sale of substantially all assets, other than cash, used in or connection with the Company's home grain mill and kitchen mixer business to John Hofman and Bruce Crane, former officers and directors of the Company, in consideration for the assumption by such persons of substantially all the liabilities incurred by the Company in connection with such business.  The assets divested consisted of the non-cybersecurity assets of the Company and included accounts receivable, inventory, deposits, property and equipment and intangible assets.  The liabilities divested included the non-cybersecurity liabilities of the Company and included accounts payable and accrued expenses and long and short-term notes payable and accrued interest thereon. 

On July 2, 2017, the Company filed Restated Articles with the Secretary of State of Nevada to, among other things, change the Company’s name to BlackRidge Technology International, Inc.

Overview

BlackRidge Technology International Inc., a Nevada company, headquartered in Reno Nevada, was incorporated in April 2010 under the name “Grote Molen, Inc.” to commercialize its military grade and patented network security technology.

BlackRidge develops and markets next generation cyber defense solutions that enables our customers to deliver more secure and resilient business services in today’s rapidly evolving cyber threat environments. Our network, server, IoT and cloud security products are based on our patented Transport Access Control technology and are designed to isolate, cloak and protect cloud services, enterprise servers and Internet of Things (IoT) devices; and segment and segregate enterprise Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT) networks from cyber-attacks and unauthenticated access. BlackRidge products are used in enterprise and government computing environments, the industrial IoT, critical infrastructure and other cloud service provider and network systems.

The general telephone number for BlackRidge is 1-855-807-8776 and our website is www.blackridge.us.

Business

The Company develops, markets and supports a family of products that provide a next generation cyber security solution for protecting enterprise networks and cloud services, and more recently, healthcare, industrial controls and critical infrastructure systems. With our patented technology, network connected devices and server resources located in the enterprise and datacenters, factory and hospital floors, and cloud systems are better protected, less expensive to protect, and less vulnerable to compromise from cyber-attacks and insider threats. We believe that our identity-based approach to cyber defense offers superior performance compared to legacy network security approaches and greatly reduces business risk and operational costs for organizations by eliminating malicious and unwanted traffic from their networks and systems.

BlackRidge and our partners sell network security products and solutions based on our proprietary BlackRidge Transport Access Control (TAC) software. BlackRidge “TAC” provides high throughput and low latency network security that operates pre-session, in real time, before other security defenses engage. BlackRidge products can be deployed inside an IT or OT network or a cloud to cloak and protect servers and IoT devices and segment networks, in front of existing security stacks to filter anonymous traffic, or as part of cloud or managed service provider or OEM (as defined below) solutions.

The Company believes its technology is first to market with an authenticated identity-based approach of addressing this implicit trust problem in networks, that is now commonly called “zero trust” network environments. BlackRidge TAC authenticates identity before allowing a network connection to proceed to ensure that only identified and authorized users are allowed to establish network connections.

Technology and Products

Our proprietary and patented technology, TAC, authenticates user or device identity and applies security policies across networks and cloud services before application sessions are established. Underlying BlackRidge TAC is our patented First Packet Authentication™ which conveys and authenticates identity in the "first packet" of a TCP network session request. This fundamental invention addresses the trust model in how the Internet operates: the inability to authenticate network traffic sources and network connections. Without authentication, unidentified and unauthorized users and devices can scan, probe and access networks and cloud services. This implicit trust security gap is exploited in all cyber-attacks through the process of network scanning and reconnaissance, and it has been further exposed and magnified by cloud services, mobile connectivity, and the IoT.

BlackRidge products provide advanced identity-based cyber defense capabilities compared to advanced firewalls and VPNs in applications such as network segmentation, software defined networks, and protecting cloud services, IoT, and critical infrastructure devices. BlackRidge conceals network resources from network mapping, reconnaissance and other forms of unauthorized access and attacks which cannot be blocked by advanced firewalls or malware detection systems. This significantly reduces their cyber-attack surface which is the ability for their systems to be found and attacked. Furthermore, unlike VPN and tunneling technologies that encrypt network traffic, our solution enables customers to continue to use their advanced analytical and machine learning tools. This is also important for Industrial Control Systems and IIoT environments that need to deploy advanced IoT analytics tools to support digital transformation and automation initiatives such as condition-based monitoring.

5

For Industrial IoT and critical infrastructure environments, BlackRidge products effectively let organizations establish end-to-end trust by transporting authenticated identity through the stack – across already installed sensors to clouds and IoT analytics servers – cost effectively and with minimal latency added to the network. This ability to add security to legacy or brownfield environments addresses the risk of the increasing attack surface from the convergence of Operational Technology with IT networks. Organizations tasked with operating and managing factory automation or critical infrastructure systems can now secure legacy equipment long shelf life and known vulnerabilities.

The BlackRidge solution is available in the following product configurations, with additional platform support and endpoints under development:

● 1U rack-mountable 1GbE or 10GbE network appliance;

● 1GbE fanless desktop appliance;

● VMware ESXi™, KVM, and IBM z/VM® virtual appliances;

● Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure cloud virtual appliances; and

● Windows and Linux software endpoints; and

 ● IoT endpoints and devices.

BlackRidge products are priced and licensed per gateway appliance or endpoint device, and on the total number of user and device identities supported in an implementation. We offer annual subscription pricing at a preferred rate with perpetual, enterprise site and Original Equipment Manufacturer (“OEM”) licensing also available. BlackRidge gateways can support up to 100,000 identities and 4,000,000 sessions, providing a highly scalable enterprise solution that operates with low latency and high throughput compared to current network security devices.

Network and cloud deployments options include deploying in-line as a network protection or segmentation device or logically inline for cloud deployments. BlackRidge’s software and systems are designed to be highly resilient and can be configured for high availability and failover. Deployment risk is addressed by monitoring and verifying security policies during deployment with progressive modes of bridge, monitor and audit, and then enforce policy; and by logging all policy enforcement actions.

Our products are protected by multiple U.S. Patents including "First Packet Authentication," "Concealing a Network Connected Device," "Digital Identity Authentication," and "Statistical Object Identification," and "Method for Directing Requests to Trusted Resources."

Support and Maintenance

BlackRidge offers standard and premium support to our end-customers and channel partners, where our channel partners typically deliver the initial or level one support and we provide the advanced or level two and three product support. The support for our end customers includes annual contracts for ongoing maintenance services for both hardware and software to receive software upgrades, bug fixes, and repairs. End customers typically purchase these services for a one year or longer term at the time of the initial product sale and typically renew for successive one year or longer periods.

Professional Services. 

Professional services are primarily delivered through our channel partners and include experts who plan, design, and deploy effective security solutions tailored to our end-customers' specific requirements. These services include solution design and planning, configuration, and installation. Our education services provide online and classroom-style training and are also primarily delivered through our internal team.

Technology Alliance Partners

BlackRidge participates in an ecosystem of technology alliance partners such as Cisco Systems, Inc. and Juniper Networks, Inc to extend the breadth and depth of our products and partner solutions, and to help ease the complications that organizations face when implementing multi-layered security solutions. Our technology alliances facilitate integrated solution design, accelerate the implementation time to realize value, provide vertical industry knowledge and credibility, and enhance our role as a strategic security partner.

Markets, Customers and Distribution Channels

The BlackRidge network security and adaptive cyber defense solution is broadly applicable to virtually all enterprise, government and industrial control, and critical infrastructure or utility market segments. Whether deployed directly in a customer's environment or embedded as part of partner’s cloud service or solution, BlackRidge products provide a new level of cyber defense not available in the market today.

BlackRidge markets and sells its products to government and commercial users through multiple channels, including direct sales, integrator and reseller channel partners, cloud and managed service providers, and through strategic OEM partners. The initial sales focus and market entry strategy for BlackRidge was the U.S. Department of Defense, which is a key leverage point for the company's current commercial, government, and international sales efforts. Our customers and strategic technology partners include Cisco, Federal Resources, healthcare providers such as ImagineMed, IBM, I-NET, Marist College, Microsoft, National Instruments, Oracle, PTC, SafeLogic, Splunk, the U.S. Department of Defense, the U.S. Department of Energy, and VMware. Our global channel partners include Atrion, B&D Consulting, LRS IT Solutions, Network Runners, Nihon Cornet Technology, NTT AT, and Presidio.

Within the commercial markets, BlackRidge sells both direct and through our strategic partners to large enterprise accounts, and indirect through certain channel partners to specific verticals and international market segments. Our initial market entry strategy for the commercial market is to sell direct in order to establish customer references with large enterprises that have high security and compliance requirements.  These include more complex regulated enterprises such as Financial Services, Healthcare, Insurance, Manufacturing and Utility companies. Our channel partners are recruited to expand enterprise sales, commercializing specific vertical markets, and penetrating the international markets. Revenue from commercial sales includes subscription and perpetual product licensing fees, installation services, and annual support based on a standard price list.

In the government markets, BlackRidge sells its standard commercial products through a wholly owned subsidiary, BlackRidge Technology Government, to government resellers, integrators and contractors who resell to the Department of Defense (DOD) and civilian agencies. BlackRidge’s government revenue is net of government discounts, contracting fees, and channel and service partner discounts. BlackRidge has been involved with the DOD for over nine years, including our initial product development funding which was provided by the U.S. DOD. The BlackRidge products have been designed for several large DOD programs and they have been extensively tested and validated for use by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) labs and other agencies.

In 2018 we achieved several significant product milestones with the DOD including receiving Federal Information Processing Standard 140-2 (FIPS 140-2) certification, and our TAC gateway was certified and added to the Department of Defense Information Network Approved Products List (DoDIN APL). This DoDIN APL designation identifies products that have completed interoperability and cyber security certification via a rigorous testing process, and it allows the DoD both domestic and abroad to purchase and operate BlackRidge products within DoD networks.

The BlackRidge OEM and service provider partnership strategy is to make targeted investments to capitalize on opportunities in specific market segments such as the industrial Internet of Things (IoT), blockchain networks, and cloud solution providers. For these markets and our partners, BlackRidge TAC can be deployed as an integrated or embedded capability in the partners' equipment and vertical market solutions and sold and supported by our partner. BlackRidge provides unique, integrated identity-based cyber defense for these OEM products or service offerings that provides their end user customer with a competitive market advantage in the face of today's advanced cyber threats. Revenue from OEM offerings flows from embedded product licensing fees and support fees and add-on product sales that are somewhat unique to each OEM offering.

Marketing and Product Management

Our marketing is focused on building our brand reputation and market awareness for our company and our unique technology capabilities and platform, driving customer demand and building a strong sales pipeline, and working with our channel and OEM partners to facilitate their sales efforts. Our marketing team consists of corporate marketing, product marketing and product management, digital marketing operations, and corporate communications. Marketing and product management activities include sales training and enablement, market and customer requirements, competitive market analysis, content creation for marketing programs, demand generation programs including digital marketing programs and trade shows and conferences, product launch activities, managing our corporate and investor website, social media, and press and analyst relations.

Research and Development

We continue to enhance our BlackRidge TAC software, the core software used in the BlackRidge products. This software is responsible for the TAC token generation, token validation, the token cache, packet processing and the insertion of TAC tokens into TCP connection requests. The TAC software has been developed domestically within the U.S. using only U.S. citizens. This software includes implementations of granted and pending patents owned by BlackRidge.

We continue to pursue research and development to improve our existing products. These improvements include making our products easier to manage, easier to deploy in large numbers, incorporating feedback from customers and partners for new market segments such as Industrial IoT, and improvements in our integrations with 3rd party products that communicate with BlackRidge products.

Our product development efforts release software with new features from time to time. When a new feature is significant enough, we produce a major software release.  In between major software releases, there may be one or more minor software releases that also introduce less significant new features.

Intellectual Property

BlackRidge focuses on developing patent protection for products it develops and for products and features that are anticipated. We constantly perfect and file new applications where appropriate.

The granted patents focus on the communication of identity tokens at the network layer (6,973,496, 8,346,951), combining identity authentication at different security layers (8,281,127, 8,635,445), insuring the integrity of token authentication (8,572,697,9,973,499) and using identity to select amongst a set of trusted resources (9,118,644). The pending applications focus on extending the above protections (14/544,987, 15/732,282, 15/998,262), using network identity in a firewall (14/545,988) and making network routing policy decisions using identity (16/350,200).

As of release 4.0, our products use the technology described in patents 6,973,496, 8,346,951, 8,572,697 and 9,973,499 as well as technology described in some of our pending applications.  As we continue to add products and features, we will be incorporating technology described in additional patents and applications. All patents and completed applications are assigned to BlackRidge Technology Holdings, Inc.

Competition

BlackRidge TAC operates at the Transport Layer to provide a highly scalable, non-interactive authentication protocol that does not rely on signatures, sandboxing, or deep packet inspection of content. This provides key competitive differentiators including high through-put with very low latency, compatibility with existing network and security technologies, address and topology independent, ability to work with encrypted content, and it supports cloud environments with network address translation (NAT).

We compete with other technology research and development, and sales companies for enterprise security spending and for financing from a limited number of investors that are prepared to invest in such companies. The presence of competing companies in our field of endeavor may impact our ability to raise additional capital to fund our operations or further acquisitions, if investors perceive that investments in our competitors are more attractive based on the merit of their technologies, or the advanced stage of marketing or development or the price of the investment opportunity. We face competition from many companies, major universities and research institutions in the United States and abroad. Many of our competitors have substantially greater resources, experience in conducting research, experience in obtaining regulatory approvals for their products, operating experience, research and development and marketing capabilities, name recognition and production capabilities. We will face competition from companies marketing existing products or developing new products which may render our technologies (and products) obsolete.

9

These companies may have numerous competitive advantages, including:

● significantly greater name recognition;

● established distribution networks;

● more advanced technologies and product development;

● additional lines of products, and the ability to offer rebates, higher discounts or incentives; and

● greater experience in conducting research and development, manufacturing, and obtaining regulatory approval for products.

Our commercial success depends on our ability to compete effectively in product development areas such as, but not limited to, safety, price, marketing and distribution. There can be no assurance that competitors will not succeed in developing products that are more effective than our cyber security technology, therefore rendering our products obsolete and noncompetitive.  Accordingly, in addition to our research and development efforts, we believe we need to create a public relations/advertising program designed to establish our “brand” name recognition; we intend to continue to develop and market our brand name pending commercialization of products, if any, we may derive from our research and development efforts.

Our strategy drives the marketing, distribution and public acceptance of any products we may derive from our research and development.  Competition with respect to our technologies is and will be based, among other things, on effectiveness, latency, reliability, availability, price, marketing, distribution and patent position. Another important factor will be the timing of market introduction of any new versions of the software or development of new products and cyber security solutions new markets such industrial control systems (ICS) and the Industrial IoT.

Accordingly, the speed with which we can distribute and sell products and the speed to market with new or updated versions of the existing software, complete testing and proof of concept processes and ultimately supply commercial quantities of our products to the market and channels is expected to be an important competitive factor.

Our competitive position will also depend upon our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel, to obtain patent protection or otherwise develop proprietary products or processes, and to secure sufficient capital resources for the often-substantial period between technological conception and commercial sales.

Cybersecurity Enterprise Risk Management

The BlackRidge cybersecurity Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) is an Office of Information Security (OIS) program comprised of established policies, procedures and controls.  The backbone of the program applies approved techniques to measure cyber risk and respond with controls to mitigate those risks.   Measurement of risk is executed by trained cyber security staff.  Each risk is calculated using industry norm values (Severity, Occurrence, Detection) which produces a Risk Priority Number (RPN).  The entire portfolio of risks is organized into a four-block configuration visibly denoting actions to Improve, Optimize, Monitor or Accept each individual risk.  The aggregate of risk visualization data is a dynamic representation for review by various corporate constituencies.

Current consumers of BlackRidge aggregated corporate cybersecurity program are Audit / Finance, CVP Internal Audit, CEO, BlackRidge ERM management team and the engineering group.  Each entity in turn provides specific feedback relative to the consumption of the data.  The feedback is used to normalize the data and subsequently provide inputs to design and implementation of controls to maintain risk at an acceptable corporate level.  As controls are applied continually, measurements and reevaluations are taken by the OIS team at various intervals across the spectrum of risk to ensure applied controls are effective and stabilizing to the agreed corporate risk tolerance.  The evolution of the OIS ERM program strives for the right balance of control to maintain security, while also providing continuous improvement to the BlackRidge Governance, Risk, Compliance and Security Programs.

Employees of BlackRidge

As of March 29, 2019, we have 49 full time and two part time employees.  We also engage a number of independent contractors as engineers, system architects, or developers. BlackRidge employees are not represented by unions and it considers its relationship with its employees to be good.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors

Risk Factors

BlackRidge has had operating losses each year since its inception, and may not achieve or maintain profitability in the future.

BlackRidge has incurred operating losses each year since its inception, including net losses of $17,150,967 and $15,345,644 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Our operating expenses have increased as we have expanded our sales and marketing efforts and we continue to invest in research and development of our technologies. These efforts may be more costly in the future than we expect, and we may not be able to increase our revenue to offset our increased operating expenses. Our revenue growth may slow or our revenue may decline for a number of other reasons, including reduced demand for our platform, increased competition, a decrease in the growth or size of the IT security market, particularly the market for solutions that target the next generation of advanced cyber-attacks, or any failure to capitalize on growth opportunities. Any failure to increase our revenue as we grow our business could prevent us from achieving or maintaining profitability. If we are unable to meet these risks and challenges as we encounter them, our business, financial condition and results of operations may suffer.

BlackRidge audited financial statements contain a "going concern" qualification noting that during the year ended December 31, 2018, we incurred a net loss of $17,150,967 and inception to date losses are $67,047,343, which factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

The independent registered public accounting firm for BlackRidge for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, has included an explanatory paragraph in their opinion that accompanies the BlackRidge audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018, indicating that we incurred a net loss of $17,150,967 and inception to date losses are $67,047,343, which factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. In this regard, management is proposing to raise any necessary additional funds not provided by operations through investment capital.  There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising this additional capital or in achieving profitable operations.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements of BlackRidge do not include any adjustments that might result if we are unable to continue as a going concern and, therefore, be required to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities other than in the normal course of business which could cause investors to suffer the loss of all or a substantial portion of their investment.

We may be unsuccessful in raising additional capital.   If we are unable to raise additional financing, we will be under-capitalized and will not be able to execute our business plan as forecast. Such financing difficulties would likely reduce the value of your investment in the Registrant.

BlackRidge is a recently formed company, with limited operating history.BlackRidge was formed in 2010 and has generated limited revenue. To date, BlackRidge has operated at a loss. Prior to BlackRidge, management of BlackRidge has not previously worked together in a company.  There is, therefore, no guarantee that management will work well together and execute the business plan of BlackRidge successfully.

11

BlackRidge is likely to lose money for a period of time.

BlackRidge, like many early stage companies, is projected to lose money for several months before it reaches cash-flow break even.   Such projections may turn out to be too optimistic and BlackRidge may lose more money or for longer than forecast, hurting the value of an investment. 

To the extent that BlackRidge's business plan relies on future access to financing, investors are incurring the risk of future dilution. 

The market for raising capital for small public companies is currently challenging and may remain challenging for the indefinite future.  Therefore, future financings by the Registrant may either be not possible or only done on terms that are detrimental to existing debt and equity holders of the Company.

Our business plan is dependent on the success of BlackRidge's existing technologies and new technologies which may be developed by BlackRidge's engineering team.

There is no guarantee that BlackRidge's technologies will achieve wide acceptance at an economically attractive price point or that BlackRidge's engineering department will develop new technologies which are commercially feasible.   BlackRidge's technologies also run the risk of technological obsolescence as they are based on the current architecture of the internet.

Competitors’ technologies may render our technologies obsolete

We face competition from many companies, major universities and research institutions in the United States and abroad. Many of our competitors have substantially greater resources, experience in conducting research, experience in obtaining regulatory approvals for their products, operating experience, research and development and marketing capabilities, name recognition and production capabilities. We will face competition from companies marketing existing products or developing new products which may render our technologies (and products) obsolete.

Real or perceived defects, errors or vulnerabilities in our platform or the failure of our platform to block DDOS attacks, malware or prevent a security breach could harm our reputation and adversely impact our business, financial position and results of operations.

Because the techniques used by computer hackers to access or sabotage networks change frequently and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, there is a risk that an advanced attack could emerge that our platform is unable to detect or prevent. Moreover, as our platform is adopted by an increasing number of enterprises and governments, it is possible that the individuals and organizations behind advanced malware attacks will begin to focus on finding ways to defeat our software. If this happens, our networks, products, subscriptions and services could be targeted by attacks specifically designed to disrupt our business and undermine the perception that our platform is capable of providing superior IT security, which, in turn, could have a serious impact on our reputation as a provider of virtual machine-based security solutions.

If any of our customers becomes infected with malware after adopting our platform, even if our platform has blocked the theft of any of such customer's data, such customer could nevertheless be disappointed with our platform. Furthermore, if any enterprises or governments that are publicly known to use our platform are the subject of an advanced cyber-attack that becomes publicized, our other current or potential customers may look to our competitors for alternatives to our platform. Real or perceived security breaches of our customers' networks could cause disruption or damage to their networks or other negative consequences and could result in negative publicity to us, damage to our reputation, declining sales, increased expenses and customer relations issues.

Furthermore, our software may fail to detect or prevent malware, viruses, worms or similar threats for any number of reasons, including our failure to enhance and expand our software to reflect industry trends, new technologies and new operating environments. Failure to keep pace with technological changes in the IT security industry and changes in the threat landscape could adversely affect our ability to protect against security breaches and could cause us to lose customers.

12

Any real or perceived defects, errors or vulnerabilities in our software, or any other failure of our software to detect an advanced threat, could result in:

● a loss of existing or potential customers or channel partners;

● delayed or lost revenue;

● a delay in attaining, or the failure to attain, market acceptance;

● the expenditure of significant financial and product development resources in efforts to analyze, correct, eliminate, or work around errors or defects, to address and eliminate vulnerabilities, or to identify and ramp up production with alternative third-party manufacturers;

● an increase in warranty claims, or an increase in the cost of servicing warranty claims, either of which would adversely affect our gross margins;

● harm to our reputation or brand; and

● litigation, regulatory inquiries, or investigations that may be costly and further harm our reputation.

Our CEO and CTO have limited prior experience with government sales.

BlackRidge's business plan is, in part, to sell to government contractors, the Department of Defense and other "government" clients as well as to the commercial marketplace.   Mr. Graham, the Company's CEO and co-founder of BlackRidge has past experience in government sales and contracting groups. Mr. Hayes, the Company's CTO and co-founder of BlackRidge, has no prior experience selling to the government.   Government sales have several unique aspects which require a different approach than commercial sales and may have a longer sales cycle.  In order to mitigate this risk, we have hired proven professionals with experience selling to and contracting with the government, including a senior vice president with experience in government sales, and with appropriate security clearances to manage business in a classified environment.  We have also appointed an advisory council with experience in government sales, as well partnered with companies experienced in government contracts, including a retired Army General who headed up Army Cyber Command, and former senior executive from the office of SecDef who is an expert in supply chain risk management.

Pending patent applications may be denied.

While BlackRidge owns issued U.S. patents on its core technology, there is no guarantee that other applications will result in granted patents. Furthermore, given the nature of the US Patent Office, the determination of patentability may take several years.  Even with its existing patents, enforcing patent rights can be an expensive and time-consuming process, involving years of litigation and large legal fees.

Fluctuating economic conditions make it difficult to predict revenue for a particular period, and a shortfall in revenue may harm our operating results.

Our revenue depends significantly on general economic conditions and the demand for products in the IT security market. Economic weakness, customer financial difficulties, and constrained spending on IT security may result in decreased revenue and earnings. Such factors could make it difficult to accurately forecast our sales and operating results and could negatively affect our ability to provide accurate forecasts to our contract manufacturers and manage our contract manufacturer relationships and other expenses. In addition, concerns regarding the impact of tight budgetary constraints and the new Trump Administration on the IT budgets of various agencies of the U.S. government, as well as continued budgetary challenges in the United States and geopolitical turmoil in many parts of the world have and may continue to put pressure on global economic conditions and overall spending on IT security. Currently, most enterprises and governments have not allocated a fixed portion of their budgets to protect against next-generation advanced cyber-attacks. If we do not succeed in convincing customers that our platform should be an integral part of their overall approach to IT security and that a fixed portion of their annual IT budgets should be allocated to our platform, general reductions in IT spending by our customers are likely to have a disproportionate impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition. General economic weakness may also lead to longer collection cycles for payments due from our customers, an increase in customer bad debt, restructuring initiatives and associated expenses, and impairment of investments.

Uncertainty about future economic conditions also makes it difficult to forecast operating results and to make decisions about future investments. Future or continued economic weakness for us or our customers, failure of our customers and markets to recover from such weakness, customer financial difficulties, and reductions in spending on IT security could have a material adverse effect on demand for our platform and consequently on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

13

Our results of operations are likely to vary significantly from period to period, which could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline.

Our results of operations have varied significantly from period to period, and we expect that following the Reorganization, our results of operations will continue to vary as a result of a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control and may be difficult to predict, including:

● our ability to attract and retain new customers;

● the budgeting cycles, seasonal buying patterns and purchasing practices of customers;

● the timing of shipments of our products and length of our sales cycles;

● changes in customer or reseller requirements or market needs;

● changes in the growth rate of the IT security market, particularly the market for threat protection solutions like ours that target next-generation advanced cyber-attacks;

● the timing and success of new product and service introductions by us or our competitors or any other change in the competitive landscape of the IT security market, including consolidation among our customers or competitors;

● the level of awareness of IT security threats, particularly advanced cyber-attacks, and the market adoption of our software;

14

● deferral of orders from customers in anticipation of new products or product enhancements announced by us or our competitors;

● our ability to successfully expand our business domestically and internationally;

● reductions in customer renewal rates for our subscriptions;

● decisions by organizations to purchase IT security solutions from larger, more established security vendors or from their primary IT equipment vendors;

● changes in our pricing policies or those of our competitors;

● any disruption in, or termination of, our relationship with channel partners;

● decreases in our customers' subscription renewal rates;

● our inability to fulfill our customers' orders due to supply chain delays or events that impact our manufacturers or their suppliers;

● insolvency or credit difficulties confronting our customers, affecting their ability to purchase or pay for our products, subscriptions and services, particularly our sole source suppliers, which could disrupt our supply chain;

● the cost and potential outcomes of existing and future litigation;

● seasonality in our business;

● general economic conditions, both domestic and in our foreign markets;

● future accounting pronouncements or changes in our accounting policies or practices;

● the amount and timing of operating costs and capital expenditures related to the expansion of our business;

● a change in our mix of products, subscriptions and services; and

● increases or decreases in our expenses caused by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

Any of the above factors, individually or in the aggregate, may result in significant fluctuations in our financial and other operating results from period to period. As a result of this variability, our historical results of operations should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance. Moreover, this variability and unpredictability could result in our failure to meet our operating plan or the expectations of investors or analysts for any period. If we fail to meet such expectations for these or other reasons, the market price of our common stock could fall substantially, and we could face costly lawsuits, including securities class action suits.

We face intense competition and could fail to gain market share from our competitors, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The market for security products and services is intensely competitive and characterized by rapid changes in technology, customer requirements, industry standards and frequent new product introductions and improvements. We anticipate continued challenges from current competitors, which in many cases are more established and enjoy greater resources than us, as well as by new entrants into the industry. If we are unable to anticipate or effectively react to these competitive challenges, our competitive position could weaken, and we could experience a decline in our growth rate or revenue that could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Our competitors and potential competitors include large networking vendors that we are also partnering with such as Cisco Systems, Inc. and Juniper Networks, Inc. that may emulate or integrate features similar to ours into their own products; large companies such as Intel and HP that have acquired large IT security specialist vendors in recent years and have the technical and financial resources and broad customer bases needed to bring competitive solutions to the market; independent IT security vendors such as FireEye, Symantec, and Palo Alto Networks that offer products that claim to perform similar functions to our platform; and small and large companies that offer point solutions that compete with some of the features present in our platform. Other IT providers offer, and may continue to introduce, security features that compete with our platform, either in stand-alone security products or as additional features in their network infrastructure products. Many of our existing competitors have, and some of our potential competitors could have, substantial competitive advantages such as:

15

● greater name recognition, longer operating histories and larger customer bases;

● larger sales and marketing budgets and resources;

● broader distribution and established relationships with channel and distribution partners and customers;

● greater customer support resources;

● greater resources to make acquisitions;

● lower labor and research and development costs;

● larger and more mature intellectual property portfolios; and

● substantially greater financial, technical and other resources.

In addition, some of our larger competitors have substantially broader product offerings and may be able to leverage their relationships with distribution partners and customers based on other products or incorporate functionality into existing products to gain business in a manner that discourages users from purchasing our products, subscriptions and services, including by selling at zero or negative margins, product bundling or offering closed technology platforms. Potential customers may also prefer to purchase from their existing suppliers rather than a new supplier regardless of product performance or features. As a result, even if the features of our platform are superior, customers may not purchase our products. In addition, new innovative start-up companies, and larger companies that are making significant investments in research and development, may invent similar or superior products and technologies that compete with our platform. Our current and potential competitors may also establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties that may further enhance their resources. If we are unable to compete successfully, or if competing successfully requires us to take costly actions in response to the actions of our competitors, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our sales cycles can be long and unpredictable, and our sales efforts require considerable time and expense. As a result, our sales and revenue are difficult to predict and may vary substantially from period to period, which may cause our results of operations to fluctuate significantly.

Our results of operations may fluctuate, in part, because of the resource intensive nature of our sales efforts, the length and variability of our sales cycle and the short-term difficulty in adjusting our operating expenses. Our results of operations depend in part on sales to large organizations. The length of our sales cycle, from proof of concept to delivery of and payment for our platform, is typically six to twelve months but can be more than a year. To the extent our competitors develop products that our prospective customers view as equivalent to ours, our average sales cycle may increase. Because the length of time required to close a sale varies substantially from customer to customer, it is difficult to predict exactly when, or even if, we will make a sale with a potential customer. As a result, large individual sales have, in some cases, occurred in quarters subsequent to those we anticipated, or have not occurred at all. The loss or delay of one or more large transactions in a quarter could impact our results of operations for that quarter and any future quarters for which revenue from that transaction is delayed. As a result of these factors, it is difficult for us to forecast our revenue accurately in any quarter. Because a substantial portion of our expenses are relatively fixed in the short term, our results of operations will suffer if our revenue falls below our or analysts' expectations in a particular quarter, which could cause the price of our common stock to decline.

16

If we do not accurately anticipate and respond promptly to changes in our customers' technologies, business plans or security needs, our competitive position and prospects could be harmed.

Many of our customers operate in markets characterized by rapidly changing technologies and business plans, which require them to add numerous network access points and adapt to increasingly complex IT networks, incorporating a variety of hardware, software applications, operating systems and networking protocols. As their technologies and business plans grow more complex, we expect these customers to face new and increasingly sophisticated methods of attack. We face significant challenges in ensuring that our platform effectively identifies and responds to these advanced and evolving attacks without disrupting our customers' network performance. As a result of the continued rapid innovations in the technology industry, including the rapid growth of smart phones, tablets and other devices and the trend of "bring your own device" in enterprises, we expect the networks of our customers to continue to change rapidly and become more complex.

We have identified a number of new products and enhancements to our platform that we believe are important to our continued success in the IT security market. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in developing and marketing, on a timely basis, such new products or enhancements, or that our new products or enhancements will adequately address the changing needs of the marketplace. In addition, some of our new products and enhancements may require us to develop new hardware architectures that involve complex, expensive and time-consuming research and development processes. Although the market expects rapid introduction of new products and enhancements to respond to new threats, the development of these products and enhancements is difficult and the timetable for commercial release and availability is uncertain, as there can be significant time lags between initial beta releases and the commercial availability of new products and enhancements. We may experience unanticipated delays in the availability of new products and enhancements to our platform and fail to meet customer expectations with respect to the timing of such availability. If we do not quickly respond to the rapidly changing and rigorous needs of our customers by developing, releasing and making available on a timely basis new products and enhancements to our platform that can adequately respond to advanced threats and our customers' needs, our competitive position and business prospects will be harmed. Furthermore, from time to time, we or our competitors may announce new products with capabilities or technologies that could have the potential to replace or shorten the life cycles of our existing products. There can be no assurance that announcements of new products will not cause customers to defer purchasing our existing products.

Additionally, the process of developing new technology is expensive, complex and uncertain. The success of new products and enhancements depends on several factors, including appropriate component costs, timely completion and introduction, differentiation of new products and enhancements from those of our competitors, and market acceptance. To maintain our competitive position, we must continue to commit significant resources to developing new products or enhancements to our platform before knowing whether these investments will be cost-effective or achieve the intended results. There can be no assurance that we will successfully identify new product opportunities, develop and bring new products or enhancements to market in a timely manner, or achieve market acceptance of our platform, or that products and technologies developed by others will not render our platform obsolete or noncompetitive. If we expend significant resources on researching and developing products or enhancements to our platform and such products or enhancements are not successful, our business, financial position and results of operations may be adversely affected.

If we are unable to sell additional products, licenses, subscriptions and services, as well as renewals of our licenses, subscriptions and services, to our customers, our future revenue and operating results will be harmed.

Our future success depends, in part, on our ability to expand the deployment of our platform with existing customers by selling them additional products, subscriptions and services. This may require increasingly sophisticated and costly sales efforts and may not result in additional sales. In addition, the rate at which our customers purchase additional products, subscriptions and services depends on a number of factors, including the perceived need for additional IT security as well as general economic conditions. If our efforts to sell additional products, subscriptions and services to our customers are not successful, our business may suffer.

Further, existing customers that purchase our platform have no contractual obligation to renew their subscriptions and support and maintenance services after the initial contract period, and given our limited operating history, we may not be able to accurately predict our renewal rates. Our customers' renewal rates may decline or fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, including the level of their satisfaction with our platform, our customer support, customer budgets and the pricing of our platform compared with the products and services offered by our competitors. If our customers renew their subscriptions, they may renew for shorter contract lengths or on other terms that are less economically beneficial to us. We cannot assure you that our customers will renew their subscriptions, and if our customers do not renew their subscriptions or renew on less favorable terms, our revenue may grow more slowly than expected, if at all.

17

If we are unable to increase sales of our platform to large organizations while mitigating the risks associated with serving such customers, our business, financial position and results of operations may suffer.

Our growth strategy is dependent, in part, upon increasing sales of our platform to large enterprises and governments. Sales to large customers involve risks that may not be present (or that are present to a lesser extent) with sales to smaller entities. These risks include:

● increased purchasing power and leverage held by large customers in negotiating contractual arrangements with us;

● more stringent or costly requirements imposed upon us in our support service contracts with such customers, including stricter support response times and penalties for any failure to meet support requirements;

● more complicated implementation processes;

● longer sales cycles and the associated risk that substantial time and resources may be spent on a potential customer that ultimately elects not to purchase our platform or purchases less than we hoped;

● closer relationships with, and dependence upon, large technology companies who offer competitive products; and

● more pressure for discounts and write-offs.

In addition, because security breaches with respect to larger, high-profile enterprises are likely to be heavily publicized, there is increased reputational risk associated with serving such customers. If we are unable to increase sales of our platform to large enterprise and government customers while mitigating the risks associated with serving such customers, our business, financial position and results of operations may suffer.

Our current research and development efforts may not produce successful products or enhancements to our platform that result in significant revenue, cost savings or other benefits in the near future, if at all.

We must continue to dedicate significant financial and other resources to our research and development efforts if we are to maintain our competitive position. However, developing products and enhancements to our platform is expensive and time consuming, and there is no assurance that such activities will result in significant new marketable products or enhancements to our platform, design improvements, cost savings, revenue or other expected benefits. If we spend significant time and effort on research and development and are unable to generate an adequate return on our investment, our business and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

We may be unable to protect our intellectual property adequately, which could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We believe that our intellectual property is an essential asset of our business. We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, as well as confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions, to establish and protect our intellectual property rights in the United States and abroad. The efforts we have taken to protect our intellectual property may not be sufficient or effective, and our trademarks, copyrights and patents may be held invalid or unenforceable. Any U.S. or other patents issued to us may not be sufficiently broad to protect our proprietary technologies. We may not be effective in policing unauthorized use of our intellectual property, and even if we do detect violations, litigation may be necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights. Any enforcement efforts we undertake, including litigation, could be time-consuming and expensive, could divert management's attention and may result in a court determining that our intellectual property rights are unenforceable. If we are not successful in cost-effectively protecting our intellectual property rights, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed.

Claims by others that we infringe their proprietary technology or other rights could harm our business.

Technology companies frequently enter into litigation based on allegations of patent infringement or other violations of intellectual property rights. In addition, patent holding companies seek to monetize patents they have purchased or otherwise obtained. As we face increasing competition and gain an increasingly higher profile, the possibility of intellectual property rights claims against us grows. From time to time, we expect that third parties may assert, claims of infringement of intellectual property rights against us.  Third parties may in the future also assert claims against our customers or channel partners, whom our standard license and other agreements obligate us to indemnify against claims that our products infringe the intellectual property rights of third parties. While we intend to increase the size of our patent portfolio, many of our competitors and others may now and in the future have significantly larger and more mature patent portfolios than we have. In addition, future litigation may involve patent holding companies or other patent owners who have no relevant product offerings or revenue and against whom our own patents may therefore provide little or no deterrence or protection. Any claim of intellectual property infringement by a third party, even a claim without merit, could cause us to incur substantial costs defending against such claim, could distract our management from our business and could require us to cease use of such intellectual property. Furthermore, because of the substantial amount of discovery required in connection with intellectual property litigation, there is a risk that some of our confidential information could be compromised by the discovery process.

18

Although third parties may offer a license to their technology or other intellectual property, the terms of any offered license may not be acceptable, and the failure to obtain a license or the costs associated with any license could cause our business, financial condition and results of operations to be materially and adversely affected. In addition, some licenses may be non-exclusive, and therefore our competitors may have access to the same technology licensed to us. If a third party does not offer us a license to its technology or other intellectual property on reasonable terms, or at all, we could be enjoined from continued use of such intellectual property. As a result, we may be required to develop alternative, non-infringing technology, which could require significant time (during which we could be unable to continue to offer our affected products, subscriptions or services), effort, and expense and may ultimately not be successful. Furthermore, a successful claimant could secure a judgment or we may agree to a settlement that prevents us from distributing certain products, providing certain subscriptions or performing certain services or that requires us to pay substantial damages, royalties or other fees. Any of these events could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We rely on our management team and other key employees and will need additional personnel to grow our business, and the loss of one or more key employees or our inability to attract and retain qualified personnel could harm our business.

Our future success is substantially dependent on our ability to attract, retain and motivate the members of our management team and other key employees throughout our organization. We may not be successful in attracting qualified personnel to fulfill our current or future needs. Our competitors may be successful in recruiting and hiring members of our management team or other key employees, and it may be difficult for us to find suitable replacements on a timely basis, on competitive terms, or at all. Also, to the extent we hire employees from mature public companies with significant financial resources, we may be subject to allegations that such employees have been improperly solicited, or that they have divulged proprietary or other confidential information or that their former employers own such employees' inventions or other work product.

In addition, we believe that it is important to establish and maintain a corporate culture that facilitates the maintenance and transfer of institutional knowledge within our organization and also fosters innovation, teamwork, a passion for customers and a focus on execution. Our Chief Executive Officer and certain other key members of our management and finance teams have only been working together for a relatively short period of time, and we expect to add additional vice presidents and other members of management in the foreseeable future. If we are not successful in integrating these key employees into our organization, such failure could delay or hinder our product development efforts and the achievement of our strategic objectives, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Most of our employees, including some of our executive officers, work for us on an "at-will" basis, which means they may terminate their employment with us at any time. We do not maintain key person life insurance policies on any of our key employees. If one or more of our key employees resigns or otherwise ceases to provide us with their service, our business could be harmed.

19

If we are unable to maintain successful relationships with our channel partners and technology alliance partners, or if our channel partners or technology alliance partners fail to perform, our ability to market, sell and distribute our platform will be limited, and our business, financial position and results of operations will be harmed.

In addition to our direct sales force, we rely on our indirect channel partners to sell and support our platform. We expect that sales through channel partners will be a significant percentage of our revenue. We also partner with our technology alliance partners to design go-to-market strategies that combine our platform with products or services provided by our technology alliance partners.

Our agreements with our channel partners and our technology alliance partners are generally non-exclusive, meaning our partners may offer customers products from several different companies, including products that compete with ours. If our channel partners do not effectively market and sell our platform, choose to use greater efforts to market and sell their own products or those of our competitors, or fail to meet the needs of our customers, our ability to grow our business and sell our platform may be adversely affected. Our channel partners and technology alliance partners may cease marketing our platform with limited or no notice and with little or no penalty, and new channel partners require extensive training and may take several months or more to achieve productivity. The loss of a substantial number of our channel partners, our possible inability to replace them, or the failure to recruit additional channel partners could materially and adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, sales by channel partners are more likely than direct sales to involve collectability concerns, particularly in developing markets. Our channel partner structure could also subject us to lawsuits or reputational harm if, for example, a channel partner misrepresents the functionality of our platform to customers or violates applicable laws or our corporate policies.

Our ability to achieve revenue growth in the future will depend in part on our success in maintaining successful relationships with our channel partners, and to train our channel partners to independently sell and deploy our platform. If we are unable to maintain our relationships with these channel partners or otherwise develop and expand our indirect sales channel, or if our channel partners fail to perform, our business, financial position and results of operations could be adversely affected.

U.S. federal, state and local government sales are subject to a number of challenges and risks that may adversely impact our business.

Sales to U.S. federal, state, and local governmental agencies have in the past accounted for, and may in the future account for, a significant portion of our revenue. Sales to such government entities are subject to the following risks:

● selling to governmental agencies can be highly competitive, expensive and time consuming, often requiring significant upfront time and expense without any assurance that such efforts will generate a sale;

● government certification requirements applicable to our products may change and in doing so restrict our ability to sell into the U.S. federal government sector until we have attained the revised certification;

● government demand and payment for our products and services may be impacted by public sector budgetary cycles and funding authorizations, with funding reductions or delays adversely affecting public sector demand for our products and services;

● we sell our software to governmental agencies through our indirect channel partners, and these agencies may have statutory, contractual or other legal rights to terminate contracts with our distributors and resellers for convenience or due to a default, and any such termination may adversely impact our future results of operations; and

● governments routinely investigate and audit government contractors' administrative processes, and any unfavorable audit could result in the government refusing to continue buying our platform, which would adversely impact our revenue and results of operations, or institute fines or civil or criminal liability if the audit uncovers improper or illegal activities.

●
Government and department of defense contracts can be changed and altered by the government at any time and therefore may not be completed as initially indicated or agreed.

Our failure to adequately protect personal information could have a material adverse effect on our business.

A wide variety of provincial, state, national, and international laws and regulations apply to the collection, use, retention, protection, disclosure, transfer and other processing of personal data. These data protection and privacy-related laws and regulations are evolving and may result in ever-increasing regulatory and public scrutiny and escalating levels of enforcement and sanctions. Our failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations, or to protect such data, could result in enforcement action against us, including fines, imprisonment of company officials and public censure, claims for damages by customers and other affected individuals, damage to our reputation and loss of goodwill (both in relation to existing customers and prospective customers), any of which could have a material adverse effect on our operations, financial performance and business. Evolving and changing definitions of personal data and personal information within the European Union, the United States, and elsewhere, especially relating to classification of IP addresses, machine identification, location data and other information, may limit or inhibit our ability to operate or expand our business, including limiting technology alliance partners that may involve the sharing of data. Even the perception of privacy concerns, whether or not valid, may harm our reputation and inhibit adoption of our products by current and future customers.

20

If the general level of DDOS and advanced cyber-attacks declines, or is perceived by our current or potential customers to have declined, our business could be harmed.

Our business is substantially dependent on enterprises and governments recognizing that DDOS and advanced cyber-attacks are pervasive and are not effectively prevented by legacy security solutions. High visibility attacks on prominent enterprises and governments have increased market awareness of the problem of DDOS and advanced cyber-attacks and help to provide an impetus for enterprises and governments to devote resources to protecting against DDOS and advanced cyber-attacks, such as testing our platform, purchasing it, and broadly deploying it within their organizations. If DDOS and advanced cyber-attacks were to decline, or enterprises or governments perceived that the general level of DDOS and advanced cyber-attacks have declined, our ability to attract new customers and expand our offerings within existing customers could be materially and adversely affected. A reduction in the threat landscape could increase our sales cycles and harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We are exposed to the credit risk of some of our distributors and resellers and to credit exposure in weakened markets, which could result in material losses.

Most of our sales are on an open credit basis. Although we have programs in place that are designed to monitor and mitigate these risks, we cannot assure you these programs will be effective in reducing our credit risks, especially as we expand our business internationally. If we are unable to adequately control these risks, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be harmed.

Our failure to raise additional capital or generate the significant capital necessary to expand our operations and invest in new products could reduce our ability to compete and could harm our business.

We intend to continue to make investments to support our business growth and may require additional funds to respond to business challenges, including the need to develop new products and enhancements to our platform, improve our operating infrastructure or acquire complementary businesses and technologies. Accordingly, we may need to engage in equity or debt financings to secure additional funds. If we raise additional equity financing, our stockholders may experience significant dilution of their ownership interests and the per share value of our common stock could decline. Furthermore, if we engage in debt financing, the holders of debt would have priority over the holders of common stock, and we may be required to accept terms that restrict our ability to incur additional indebtedness. We may also be required to take other actions that would otherwise be in the interests of the debt holders and force us to maintain specified liquidity or other ratios, any of which could harm our business, results of operations, and financial condition. If we need additional capital and cannot raise it on acceptable terms, we may not be able to, among other things:

● develop or enhance our products and subscriptions;

● continue to expand our sales and marketing and research and development organizations;

● acquire complementary technologies, products or businesses;

● expand operations, in the United States or internationally;

● hire, train and retain employees; or

● respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated working capital requirements.

Our failure to do any of these things could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If our products do not effectively interoperate with our customers' IT infrastructure, installations could be delayed or cancelled, which would harm our business.

Our products must effectively interoperate with our customers' existing or future IT infrastructure, which often has different specifications, utilizes multiple protocol standards, deploys products from multiple vendors, and contains multiple generations of products that have been added over time. As a result, when problems occur in a network, it may be difficult to identify the sources of these problems. If we find errors in the existing software or defects in the hardware used in our customers' infrastructure or problematic network configurations or settings, we may have to modify our software or hardware so that our products will interoperate with our customers' infrastructure. In such cases, our products may be unable to provide significant performance improvements for applications deployed in our customers' infrastructure. These issues could cause longer installation times for our products and could cause order cancellations, either of which would adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, government and other customers may require our products to comply with certain security or other certifications and standards. If our products are late in achieving or fail to achieve compliance with these certifications and standards, or our competitors achieve compliance with these certifications and standards, we may be disqualified from selling our products to such customers, or may otherwise be at a competitive disadvantage, either of which would harm our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

21

Failure to comply with governmental laws and regulations could harm our business.

Our business is subject to regulation by various U.S. federal, state, local and foreign governments. In certain jurisdictions, these regulatory requirements may be more stringent than those in the United States. Noncompliance with applicable regulations or requirements could subject us to investigations, sanctions, mandatory product recalls, enforcement actions, disgorgement of profits, fines, damages, civil and criminal penalties, or injunctions. If any governmental sanctions are imposed, or if we do not prevail in any possible civil or criminal litigation, our business, results of operations, and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. In addition, responding to any action will likely result in a significant diversion of management's attention and resources and an increase in professional fees. Enforcement actions and sanctions could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our ability to use our net operating losses to offset future taxable income may be subject to certain limitations which could negatively impact future tax expense.

In general, under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, a corporation that undergoes an "ownership change" is subject to limitations on its ability to utilize its pre-change net operating losses, or NOLs, to offset future taxable income. Our existing NOLs may be subject to limitations arising from previous ownership changes, and if we undergo an ownership change, our ability to utilize NOLs could be further limited by Section 382 of the Code. Future changes in our stock ownership, some of which are outside of our control, could result in an ownership change under Section 382 of the Code. Furthermore, our ability to utilize NOLs of companies that we may acquire in the future may be subject to limitations. There is also a risk that due to regulatory changes, such as suspensions on the use of NOLs, or other unforeseen reasons, our existing NOLs could expire or otherwise be unavailable to offset future income tax liabilities. There is also a risk that due to regulatory changes in the tax rates, the value of our NOLs could change substantially.  For these reasons, we may not be able to utilize a material portion of our NOLs, even if we attain profitability. 

Risks Related to the Securities Markets and Ownership of Our Common Stock

The price of our common stock may be volatile, and the value of your investment could decline.

Technology stocks have historically experienced high levels of volatility. The trading price of our common stock following the Reorganization may fluctuate substantially, depending on many factors, some of which are beyond our control and may not be related to our operating performance. These fluctuations could cause you to lose all or part of your investment in our common stock. Factors that could cause fluctuations in the trading price of our common stock include the following:

● announcements of new products, services or technologies, commercial relationships, acquisitions or other events by us or our competitors;

● changes in how customers perceive the effectiveness of our platform in protecting against advanced cyber-attacks or other reputational harm;

● price and volume fluctuations in the overall stock market from time to time;

● significant volatility in the market price and trading volume of technology companies in general and of companies in the IT security industry in particular;

● fluctuations in the trading volume of our shares or the size of our public float;

● actual or anticipated changes or fluctuations in our results of operations;

● whether our results of operations meet the expectations of securities analysts or investors;

● actual or anticipated changes in the expectations of investors or securities analysts;

● litigation involving us, our industry, or both;

● regulatory developments in the United States, foreign countries or both;

● general economic conditions and trends;

● major catastrophic events;

● sales of large blocks of our common stock; or

● departures of key personnel.

In addition, if the market for technology stocks or the stock market in general experiences a loss of investor confidence, the trading price of our common stock could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, results of operations or financial condition. The trading price of our common stock might also decline in reaction to events that affect other companies in our industry even if these events do not directly affect us. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company's securities, securities class action litigation has often been brought against that company. If our stock price is volatile, we may become the target of securities litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and divert our management's attention and resources from our business. This could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public markets, or the perception that such sales might occur, could reduce the price that our common stock might otherwise attain and may dilute your voting power and your ownership interest in us.

We may issue our shares of common stock or securities convertible into our common stock from time to time in connection with a financing, acquisition or otherwise. Any such issuance could result in substantial dilution to our existing stockholders and cause the trading price of our common stock to decline.

Our securities are illiquid meaning that you may not be able to sell your securities when you wish or for a price you like.  

Although the Registrant is a publicly traded company, the current market for its securities is limited and relatively illiquid.   Therefore, you may incur higher trading costs in the form of wider than typical bid-ask spreads and may have difficulty selling a large block of shares in a short period of time.

22

Our common stock is currently considered a "penny" stock and therefore is subject to limitations on trading.  

Stocks that trade below $5.00 per share and are not listed on a major national securities exchange such as the NYSE or NASDAQ, are subject to restrictions on how broker-dealers may handle such stocks including limitations on solicitation and more onerous record-keeping requirements.   As a result, penny stocks tend to have less trading volume and liquidity than stocks which are not subject to penny stock rules.  We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.

We have never declared or paid any dividends on our common stock. We intend to retain any earnings to finance the operation and expansion of our business, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the future. As a result, you may only receive a return on your investment in our common stock if the market price of our common stock increases.

We are an "emerging growth company," and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.

For so long as we remain an "emerging growth company," as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various requirements that are applicable to public companies that are not "emerging growth companies," including not being required to comply with the independent auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We will remain an "emerging growth company" until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the completion of this offering, (ii) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our annual gross revenue is $1 billion or more, (iii) the date on which we have, during the previous rolling three-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt securities or (iv) the date on which we are deemed to be a "large accelerated filer" as defined in the Exchange Act. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock, and our stock price may be more volatile and may decline.

We are obligated to implement and maintain proper and effective internal control over financial reporting. We may not complete our analysis of our internal control over financial reporting in a timely manner, or these internal controls may not be determined to be effective, which may adversely affect investor confidence in our company and, as a result, the value of our common stock.

We are required, pursuant to the Exchange Act, to furnish a report by management on, among other things, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. This assessment needs to include disclosure of any material weaknesses identified by our management in our internal control over financial reporting.

We are currently evaluating our internal controls, identifying and remediating deficiencies in those internal controls and documenting the results of our evaluation, testing and remediation. We may not be able to complete our evaluation, testing and any required remediation in a timely fashion. During the evaluation and testing process, if we identify one or more material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that we are unable to remediate before the end of the same fiscal year in which the material weakness is identified, we will be unable to assert that our internal controls are effective. If we are unable to assert that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, or if our auditors, when required, are unable to attest to management's report on the effectiveness of our internal controls, we could lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, which would cause the price of our common stock to decline.

As a public company, we will be required to disclose material changes made in our internal control and procedures on a quarterly basis. However, our independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to formally attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act until the later of the year following our first annual report required to be filed with the SEC or the date we are no longer an "emerging growth company" as defined in the JOBS Act, if we take advantage of the exemptions contained in the JOBS Act. To comply with the requirements of being a public company, we may need to undertake various actions, such as implementing new internal controls and procedures and hiring accounting or internal audit staff.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research reports about our business, our share price and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for our common stock will, to some extent, depend on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us or our business. We do not have any control over these analysts. If one or more of the analysts who cover us should downgrade our shares or change their opinion of our shares, our share price would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts ceases coverage of our company or fails to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which could cause our share price or trading volume to decline.

There may be other risks which the Company has not identified which could negatively affect the value of your investment in the Company.

While we believe that the risks identified herein are the major risks we face, there are likely other risks which could occur and negatively affect the value of your investment in the company.   Therefore, you should only purchase our securities if you are able to afford to lose part or all of the value of your investment.

23

Our officers, directors and principal stockholders own a large percentage of our issued and outstanding shares and other stockholders have little or no ability to elect directors or influence corporate matters.

As of December 31, 2018, our officers, directors and principal stockholders were deemed to the beneficial owners of approximately 58% of our issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, including Series A Preferred Stock and warrants on an "as converted" basis.  As a result, such persons would be able to determine the outcome of any actions taken by us that require stockholder approval.  For example, they would be able to elect all of our directors and control the policies and practices of the Registrant.

We have the ability to issue additional shares of common stock and to issue shares of preferred stock without stockholder approval

The Company is authorized to issue up to 500,000,000 shares of Common Stock, 96,872,725 of which have been issued and are outstanding.  The Company is also authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, 3,577 of which have been issued and 3,577,370 are outstanding, all of which have been designated as Series A Preferred Stock.  To the extent of such authorization, the officers of the Registrant have the ability, without seeking stockholder approval, to issue additional shares of Common Stock in the future for such consideration as they believe to be sufficient. The issuance of additional Common Stock in the future will reduce the proportionate ownership and voting power of the Registrant's current stockholders.

The shares of common stock available for sale in the future could adversely affect the market price for the Company’s common stock.

Of the 96,872,725 shares of Common Stock outstanding, approximately 83,400,000 shares are freely tradable if held by non-affiliates or eligible for resale under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if held by affiliates.  Sales of substantial amounts of this Common Stock in the public market could adversely affect the market price for the Registrant's common stock.  The approximately 13,500,000 remaining shares will become available for sale under Rule 144 around within one year if held by non-affiliates, and the availability of those shares for sale could also adversely affect the market price for the Registrant's Common Stock.  In addition, the Registrant's outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of the Registrant's Common Stock at the rate of 10 shares (subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments) of Common Stock for each one share of Series A Preferred Stock.  If the Series A Preferred Stock is converted, and the shares are placed for sale, such sales could adversely affect the market price for the Registrant's Common Stock.

Holders

At March 30, 2019, there were approximately 210 shareholders of record of the Company's common stock and 74 holders of the Company’s Series A preferred stock, as reported by the Company's transfer agent.  In computing the number of holders of record, each broker-dealer and clearing corporation holding shares on behalf of its customers is counted as a single stockholder.

Dividends

No dividends have ever been paid on the Company's securities, and the Company has no current plans to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. 

Equity Compensation Plans

In May 2017, the Board recommended and its shareholders approved the 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2017 Plan"), which became effective immediately. See Note 10 – Share Based Compensation for options issued under this plan.

Under the 2017 Plan, the term of an option grant shall not exceed ten years from the date of its grant and options generally vest over a five-year period, with vesting on a monthly interval. Under the 2017 Plan, up to 20,000,000 shares of common stock can be reserved for issuance to eligible participants. The Company has no other equity compensation plans.

Special Sales Practice Requirements with Regard to “Penny Stocks”

In order to protect investors from patterns of fraud and abuse that have occurred in the market for low priced securities commonly referred to as “penny stocks,” the SEC has adopted regulations that generally define a “penny stock” to be any equity security having a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share, or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions.  The price of our stock is currently below $5.00 per share and our stock is subject to the “penny stock” regulations.  As a result, broker-dealers selling our common stock are subject to additional sales practices when they sell our stock to persons other than established clients and “accredited investors.”  For transactions covered by these rules, before the transaction is executed, the broker-dealer must make a special customer suitability determination, receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction and deliver a risk disclosure document relating to the penny stock market.  The broker-dealer must also disclose the commission payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative taking the order, current quotations for the securities and, if applicable, the fact that the broker-dealer is the sole market maker and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market.  Monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.  Such “penny stock” rules may restrict trading in our common stock and may deter broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our common stock.

Transfer Agent

Issuer Direct Corporation, 1981 Murray Holladay Road, Suite 100, Salt Lake City, UT 84117, Telephone:  (801) 272-9294, serves as the transfer agent and registrar for our common stock.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

The following contains a list of our sales of unregistered securities not otherwise disclosed by the Company in previous Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and /or Current Reports on Form 8-K filings.

The Company has authorized 200 million shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value, and 10 million shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value.  Each share of the Company’s preferred stock is convertible into 10 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment, has voting rights equal to its common stock equivalent, 7% cumulative dividend rights, and has liquidation rights that entitle the recipient to the receipt of net assets on a pro-rata basis.  The Company has 96,872,725 and 77,063,171 common shares issued and outstanding and 3,577,370 and 3,639,783 preferred shares issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. 

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company issued an aggregate 1,771,666 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to consulting contracts valued at $614,516, or an average of $0.35 per share. 

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company received advances of $50,000 from Mag Ventures, a company controlled by Tom Bruderman, a director and shareholder.  These advances along with the previous balance were converted into 460,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.25 per share on November 9, 2018.

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company issued an aggregate 661,071 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $228,800 as satisfaction of payables in the amount of $241,067.  The company recognized gain on settlement of $12,267 in relation to these transactions.

We believe that the foregoing transactions were exempt from the registration requirements under exemption 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("the Act"), based on the following facts: there was no general solicitation, there was a limited number of purchasers, each of whom the Registrant believes was an "accredited investor" (within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) and was sophisticated about business and financial matters, and all shares issued were subject to restriction on transfer, so as to take reasonable steps to assure that the purchaser was not an underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(11) under the Act.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

We have not adopted a stock repurchase plan and we did not repurchase any shares of our equity securities during our 2018 or 2017 fiscal years.

Item 6.  Selected Financial Data

Not Applicable. 

Item 7.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, which are included elsewhere in this report.  The following information contains forward-looking statements. (See “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Item 1A. Risk Factors.”)

General

BlackRidge Technology International, Inc., formerly known as Grote Molen, Inc., (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada in April 2010. 

BlackRidge develops and markets next generation cyber defense solutions that enables our customers to deliver more secure and resilient business services in today’s rapidly evolving cyber threat environments. Our network, server, IoT and cloud security products are based on our patented Transport Access Control technology and are designed to isolate, cloak and protect cloud services, enterprise servers and IoT devices; and segment and segregate enterprise Information Technology (“IT”) and Operational Technology (“OT”) networks from cyber-attacks and unauthenticated access. BlackRidge products are used in enterprise and government computing environments, the industrial IoT, critical infrastructure and other cloud service provider and network systems.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We consider our critical accounting policies to be those that require the more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of financial statements, including the following:

Accounts Receivable

Trade accounts receivable are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful accounts. We determine the allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying potential troubled accounts and by using historical experience and future expectations applied to an aging of accounts. Trade accounts receivable are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade accounts receivable previously written off are recorded as income when received. We determined that no allowance for doubtful accounts was required at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

28

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined using primarily average cost method.

Prepaid Expenses

Prepaid expenses consist mainly of payments to vendors made in advance and deposits held on account for the Company.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets or, in the case of leasehold improvements, the remaining lease term, if shorter. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the assets and related accumulated depreciation are removed, and the resulting gains or losses are recorded as part of other income or expense in the statements of operations. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

The estimated useful lives of the property and equipment are as follows:

Property and Equipment	Estimated Useful Life
Building improvements	15 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment	7 years
Computer equipment	5 years

 Intangible Assets

Acquired intangible assets are recorded at estimated fair value, net of accumulated amortization. Costs incurred in obtaining certain patents and intellectual property as well as software development expenses, are capitalized and amortized over their related estimated useful lives, using a straight-line basis consistent with the underlying expected future cash flows related to the specific intangible asset. Costs to renew or extend the life of intangible assets are capitalized and amortized over the remaining useful life of the asset. Amortization expenses are included as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.  The Company’s continued ability to extend and/or renew the rights associated with these intangible assets may have an impact on future cash flows.

Useful life estimates for the Company’s significant intangible asset classes are as follows:

	Useful Life
Patent Costs	20 years
Software Licenses	7 years
Software Development Costs	15 years

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets, at least annually, to determine if impairment has occurred and whether the economic benefit of the asset (fair value of assets to be used and fair value less disposal cost for assets to be disposed of) is expected to be less than the carrying value.  Triggering events, which signal further analysis, consist of a significant decrease in the asset's market value, a substantial change in the use of an asset, a significant physical change in the asset, a significant change in the legal or business climate that could affect the asset, an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected to acquire or construct the asset, or a history of losses that imply continued loss associated with assets used to generate revenue.

29

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable. Revenue generally is recognized net of allowances for returns and any taxes collected from customers and subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.

Revenue recognition for multiple-element arrangements requires judgment to determine if multiple elements exist, whether elements can be accounted for as separate units of accounting, and if so, the fair value for each of the elements.

The Company may enter into arrangements that can include various combinations of software, services, and hardware. Where elements are delivered over different periods of time, and when allowed under U.S. GAAP, revenue is allocated to the respective elements based on their relative selling prices at the inception of the arrangement, and revenue is recognized as each element is delivered. We use a hierarchy to determine the fair value to be used for allocating revenue to elements: (i) vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value (“VSOE”), (ii) third-party evidence, and (iii) best estimate of selling price (“ESP”). For software elements, we follow the industry specific software guidance which only allows for the use of VSOE in establishing fair value. Generally, VSOE is the price charged when the deliverable is sold separately or the price established by management for a product that is not yet sold if it is probable that the price will not change before introduction into the marketplace. ESPs are established as best estimates of what the selling prices would be if the deliverables were sold regularly on a stand-alone basis. Our process for determining ESPs requires judgment and considers multiple factors that may vary over time depending upon the unique facts and circumstances related to each deliverable.

Any revenue received that does not yet meet the above recognition standards is recorded to unearned revenue, and held as a liability until recognition occurs.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, requires us to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more-likely-than-not threshold is met, we must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in our consolidated financial statements. We performed a review of our material tax positions in accordance with recognition and measurement standards established by ASC Topic 740 and concluded we had no unrecognized tax benefit that would affect the effective tax rate if recognized for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.

We include interest and penalties arising from the underpayment of income taxes, if any, in our consolidated statements of operations in general and administrative expenses. As of and December 31, 2018 and 2017, we had no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable and convertible debt.  The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value because of the short-term nature of these items.

Results of Operations

Sales

Total sales during the year ended December 31, 2018 were $247,869, as compared to net sales during the year ended December 31, 2017 of $81,968.  Management believes historical sales to not be indicative of future expectations due to historically limited business operations.  We believe that future sales will be significantly increased as we market our new suite of products.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2018 were $16,983 as compared to $10,260 during the year ended December 31, 2017, an increase of $6,723 or 65%.  This increase was due to an increase in sales containing hardware in the current year ended December 31, 2018.

Operating Expenses

Our selling, general and administrative expenses were $14,167,995 for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $13,323,460 for the year ended December 31, 2017, an increase of $844,535, or approximately 6%.  The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in the current year is primarily attributable to an approximate $1,257,000 increase in salaries and wage expense, an increase of $1,808,000 in depreciation and amortization, an increase of $1,161,000 in share based compensation expense, and an increase of $54,000 in warrant expense, partially offset by decreases of $195,000 in engineering expense, $1,100,000 in onetime, non-cash stock compensation accruals, $78,000 in stock issued for contracts, and a decrease of $851,000 in professional fees and an overall decrease in other general and administrative costs of $1,207,000.  The decrease in, and professional fees and onetime stock compensation accruals is reflective of higher costs in the previous years related to our corporate restructure and business acquisition.

Interest Income (Expense)

Other expense includes interest expense on our indebtedness, a portion of which is indebtedness to related parties.  Total net interest expense was $2,635,160 and $686,990 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.  The increase in interest expense of $1,948,170 in the current year is attributable primarily to an increase in borrowing coupled with an increase in debt discount amortized as interest.

Loss on extinguishment of debt

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company renegotiated the conversion terms and interest rate of a convertible note due to a non-affiliated investor so as to match the terms of a subsequent note granted to the same investor.  The Company recognized a loss on extinguishment related to the transaction of $95,804.  During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company also converted notes payable totaling $1,038,000 to the Company’s Chief Technology Officer and significant shareholder and a note payable of $32,000 to one of the Company’s Directors into common stock at a rate matching that of currently offered convertible debt.  The Company recognized losses on the conversions of $486,201 and $8,960, respectively.  Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company agreed to settle payables of $21,067 for stock valued at $8,800 generating a gain on settlement of $12,267.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company renegotiated the conversion terms of a convertible note due to the Company’s Chief Technology Officer and significant shareholder.  The Company converted the note principal of $3,712,637 and accrued interest of $1,665,991 into 10,757,254 shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate of $0.50 per share.  The Company also issued a 5 year warrant to purchase an additional 5,378,627 shares of the Company s common stock at a purchase price of $0.50 per share as further consideration for this conversion.  The Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt related to this transaction of $913,238.

Loss on disposal of discontinued operations

On March 31, 2017, the Company completed the sale of substantially all the assets, other than cash, used in or connection with the Company's home grain mill and kitchen mixer business to John Hofman and Bruce Crane, former officers and directors of the Company, in consideration for the assumption by such persons of substantially all the liabilities incurred by the Company in connection with such business.  The assets divested consisted of the non-cybersecurity assets of the Company and included accounts receivable, inventory, deposits, property and equipment and intangible assets.  The liabilities divested included the non-cybersecurity liabilities of the Company and included accounts payable and accrued expenses and long and short-term notes payable and accrued interest thereon.  Upon completion of the divestiture, the Company recognized a $484,927 non-cash loss on disposal.

31

Loss from discontinued operations

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recognized a loss from discontinued operations of $8,737.  This loss was primarily driven by lower than anticipated product sales of the entity that was eventually sold.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At December, 2018, we had total current assets of $4,974,958, including cash of $4,693,950, and current liabilities of $8,806,325, resulting in working capital deficit of $3,831,367.  Our current assets and working capital include receivables of $1022,292, inventory of $56,003 and prepaid expenses of $122,713. 

In addition, at December 31, 2018, we had total stockholders' equity of $5,167,814.  As we have worked toward our new product launches, we have primarily financed recent operations, the development of technologies, and the payment of expenses through the issuance of our debt, common stock, preferred stock and warrants.

For the year ended December 31, 2018, net cash used in operating activities was $10,652,541, as a result of our net loss from continued operations of $17,150,967 and increases in inventory of $15,595 and decreases in deferred revenue of $5,225, accounts payable of $241,897 and accounts payable and accrued expenses – related party of $58,370, partially offset by non-cash expenses totaling $4,960,515, decreases in accounts receivable of $115,088 and prepaid expenses of $238,929, and increases in accrued interest of $682,916, accrued interest - related party of $121,263 and wages payable of $700,802.

Cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2018 was $2,309,377 compared to $1,425,276 for the year ended December 31, 2017.  The increase of $884,101 in the current period is due primarily to an increase in capitalized engineering costs related to the Company's technology development.

For the year ended December 31, 2018, net cash provided by financing activities was $17,233,999, comprised of proceeds from short term convertible notes of $16,832,000, short term convertible notes from related party of $732,000, and advances from related parties of $75,000, partially offset by the repayment of short-term notes of $5,000 and repayments of long-term notes of $400,001.

For the year ended December 31, 2017, net cash provided by financing activities was $9,538,718, comprised of proceeds from the sale of common stock of $8,482,450, preferred stock of $275,000 and warrants exercised of $43,334, proceeds from short term convertible notes of $1,250,000 and advances – related party of $115,000, partially offset by the repayment of short-term notes of $38,989, repayments of short-term convertible notes of $100,000, repayments of long-term notes of $433,342 and cash outflows from discontinued operations of $54,735.

Based on our current business plan, we anticipate that our operating activities will use approximately $900,000 in cash per month over the next twelve months, or $10.8 million. Currently we do not have enough cash on hand to fully implement our business plan, and will require additional funds within the next year. We believe that our operations will not begin to generate significant cash flows until the second quarter of 2019 when we expect to begin new product contracts. 

In order to remedy this liquidity deficiency, we are actively seeking to raise additional funds through the sale of equity and debt securities, and ultimately plan to generate substantial positive operating cash flows. Our internal sources of funds will consist of cash flows from operations, but not until we begin to realize substantial revenues from sales. If we are unable to raise additional funds in the near term, we may not be able to fully implement our business plan, and it is unlikely that we will be able to continue as a going concern.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by FASB that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date.  If not discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements upon adoption.

32

During August 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of this new pronouncement on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which supersedes Topic 840, Leases ("ASU 2016-02"). The guidance in this new standard requires lessees to put most leases on their balance sheets but recognize expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to the current accounting and eliminates the current real estate-specific provisions for all entities. The guidance also modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases for lessors. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02.

In May 2014, in addition to several amendments issued during 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." This pronouncement updated the accounting guidance related to revenue from contracts with customers, which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. The standard defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. In accordance with allowed public company guidelines, these updates are effective for the Company for its annual period ending December 2018 and after, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the pronouncement.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) (“ASU 2016-08”) which clarified the revenue recognition implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations and is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-09. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing (“ASU 2016-10”) which clarified the revenue recognition guidance regarding the identification of performance obligations and the licensing implementation and is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-09. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients (“ASU 2016-12”) which narrowly amended the revenue recognition guidance regarding collectability, noncash consideration, presentation of sales tax and transition. ASU 2016-12 is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-09. Based on our preliminary assessment, we do not expect the new standard to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In July 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which among other things, these amendments require the measurement of all expected credit losses of financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward-looking information to better inform their credit loss estimates. In addition, the ASU amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. ASU 2016-13 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the pronouncement.

In July 2017, the FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480);Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features, (Part II) Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception (ASU 2017-11).  Among others, Part I of ASU 2017-11 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features, a provision in an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) that provides a downward adjustment of the current exercise price based on the price of future equity offerings. Current accounting guidance creates cost and complexity for organizations that issue financial instruments with down round features by requiring, on an ongoing basis, fair value measurement of the entire instrument or conversion option. ASU 2017-11 require companies to disregard the down round feature when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to its own stock, for purposes of determining liability or equity classification. Companies that provide earnings per share (EPS) data will adjust their basic EPS calculation for the effect of the feature when triggered (i.e., when the exercise price of the related equity-linked financial instrument is adjusted downward because of the down round feature) and will also recognize the effect of the trigger within equity.  ASU 2017-11 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of the pronouncement.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("the Exchange Act") as of December 31, 2018, the end of the period covered by this report.  Based upon that evaluation, we have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2018 were effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.  A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined under Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f).  Our internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements.  Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.  Based on our evaluation under that framework, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2018.

Annual Awards

Under the Director Compensation Policy, each eligible director shall receive an annual award of $20,000 for their service to the Company.  In addition, the Lead Independent Director and each director servings as committee chair will receive an additional $2,000 to their annual award.

Item 13.  Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence

Unless otherwise indicated, the terms of the following transactions during our 2018 fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, between related parties were not determined as a result of arm’s length negotiations.

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company received advances of $50,000 from Mag Ventures, a company controlled by Tom Bruderman, a director and shareholder.  These advances along with the previous balance were converted into 460,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.25 per share on November 9, 2018.

Director Independence

Our board of directors consists of seven persons, Robert Graham, John Hayes, Robert Lentz Thomas Bruderman, J. Allen Kosowsky, Robert Zahm and Brent Bunger.  Messrs. Graham and Hayes are not “independent” within the meaning of Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Marketplace because they are officers and employees of the Company.  Messrs. Lentz, Bruderman, Kosowsky, Zahm and Bunger are considered independent.

Indemnification

Our articles of incorporation provide that to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law, now or hereafter in force, no director of the Company shall be personally liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director.  In addition, Section 78.037 of the Nevada corporation law, Article Fourteenth of our articles of incorporation, and Section VII of our bylaws generally provide for indemnification of our directors and officers in a variety of circumstances, which may include liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC,” the “Commission” or the “Securities and Exchange Commission”) such indemnification is contrary to public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and, therefore, is unenforceable.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Blackridge Technology International, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Blackridge Technology International, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2018, and 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2018, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Consideration of the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred losses since inception, has negative cash flows from operations, and has negative working capital. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2 to the financial statements.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

BLACKRIDGE TECHNOLOGY INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2018 AND 2017

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization – BlackRidge Technology International, Inc. (the "Company" or, “we”, “us”, “our” and similar terminology) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on March 15, 2004 under the name “Grote Molen, Inc.”   The Company develops and markets next generation cyber defense solutions that stop cyber-attacks and block unauthenticated access. The Company’s network and server security products are based on patented Transport Access Control technology (the “Blackridge Technology”) and are designed to isolate, cloak and protect servers and cloud services and segment networks for regulatory compliance. The Company’s products are used in enterprise and government computing environments, the industrial “internet of things” and other cloud service provider and network systems.

On September 6, 2016, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of reorganization with BlackRidge Technology International, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Grote Merger Co., a Delaware corporation providing for the Company’s acquisition of BlackRidge in exchange for a controlling number of shares of the Company’s preferred and common stock pursuant to the merger of Grote Merger Co. with and into BlackRidge, with BlackRidge continuing as the surviving corporation.    The transaction contemplated in the agreement closed on February 22, 2017.

On July 2, 2017, the Company filed a Certificate to Accompany Restated Articles or Amended and Restated Articles with the Secretary of State of Nevada to, among other things, change the Company’s name to BlackRidge Technology International, Inc.

On September 22, 2017, the Company formed a new business subsidiary called BlackRidge Secure Blockchain, Inc. to pursue new market opportunities for securing blockchain applications.  On August 31, 2018, the Company filed for the dissolution of Blackridge Secure Blockchain Inc. after determining it would not be utilized.

On October 13, 2017, the Company formed a new business subsidiary called BlackRidge Secure Services, Inc. to work with partners on Secure Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition Systems (“SCADA”) infrastructure and to design and deliver secure systems using BlackRidge Technology products for use by the utilities industry.

Principles of Consolidation - The Company and its subsidiaries consist of the following entities, which have been consolidated in the accompanying financial statements:

BlackRidge Technology International, Inc.

BlackRidge Technology Holding, Inc.

BlackRidge Technology, Inc.

BlackRidge Technology Government, Inc.

BlackRidge Secure Services, Inc.

All intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The Company's financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable and convertible debt.  The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value because of the short-term nature of these items.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of 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, the disclosures 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 estimated by management.

Concentrations - Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable. The Company minimizes its credit risk associated with cash by periodically evaluating the credit quality of its primary financial institution. The cash balance at times may exceed federally insured limits. Management believes the financial risk associated with these balances is minimal and has not experienced any losses to date.  At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had cash balances in excess of FDIC insured limits of $4,110,236 and $169,751. 

F -7

Significant customers are those which represent more than 10% of the Company’s revenue for each period presented, or the Company’s accounts receivable balance as of each respective balance sheet date. For each significant customer, revenue as a percentage of total revenue and accounts receivable as a percentage of total net accounts receivable are as follows:

	Revenue						Accounts Receivable
	Year Ended December 31,						December 31,
Customers	2018			2017			2018			2017
Customer A		77	%		-	%		-	%		-	%
Customer B		10	%		12	%		-	%		15	%
Customer C		4	%		41	%		-	%		-	%
Customer D		-	%		34	%		-	%		-	%

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid debt investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - Accounts receivable represents trade obligations from customers that are subject to normal trade collection terms and are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of any allowance for doubtful accounts, and do not typically bear interest. The Company assesses the collectability of the accounts by taking into consideration the aging of accounts receivable, changes in customer credit worthiness, general market and economic conditions, and historical experience. Bad debt expenses are recorded as part of selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company writes off the receivable balance against the allowance when management determines a balance is uncollectible. The Company also reviews its customer discounts and an accrual is made for discounts earned but not yet utilized at each period end.  The Company does not believe there to be any question as to the collectability of its receivables as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 and has, therefore, not created an allowance as of this date.

Inventory - Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market value. Product-related inventories are primarily maintained using the average cost method.  When market value is determined to be less than cost, the Company records an allowance for obsolescence.  The company’s inventory assets December 31, 2018 and 2017 consisted primarily of hardware appliances valued as follows:

	As of December 31, 2018			As of December 31, 2017
Inventory	$	391,658		$	376,063
Less: allowance for obsolescence		(335,655	)		(335,655	)
	$	56,003		$	40,408

Revenue Recognition - We account for product revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 605, Revenue Recognition, and all related interpretations.  Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable. Revenue generally is recognized net of allowances for returns and any taxes collected from customers and subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.

Revenue recognition for multiple-element arrangements requires judgment to determine if multiple elements exist, whether elements can be accounted for as separate units of accounting, and if so, the fair value for each of the elements.

The Company may enter into arrangements that can include various combinations of software, services, and hardware. Where elements are delivered over different periods of time, and when allowed under U.S. GAAP, revenue is allocated to the respective elements based on their relative selling prices at the inception of the arrangement, and revenue is recognized as each element is delivered. We use a hierarchy to determine the fair value to be used for allocating revenue to elements: (i) vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value ("VSOE"), (ii) third-party evidence, and (iii) best estimate of selling price ("ESP"). For software elements, we follow the industry specific software guidance which only allows for the use of VSOE in establishing fair value. Generally, VSOE is the price charged when the deliverable is sold separately, or the price established by management for a product that is not yet sold if it is probable that the price will not change before introduction into the marketplace. ESPs are established as best estimates of what the selling prices would be if the deliverables were sold regularly on a stand-alone basis. Our process for determining ESPs requires judgment and considers multiple factors that may vary over time depending upon the unique facts and circumstances related to each deliverable.

F -8

Any revenue received that does not yet meet the above recognition standards is recorded to unearned revenue and held as a liability until recognition occurs.

Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets or, in the case of leasehold improvements, the remaining lease term, if shorter. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the assets and related accumulated depreciation are removed, and the resulting gains or losses are recorded as part of other income or expense in the statements of operations. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

The estimated useful lives of the property and equipment are as follows:

Property and Equipment	Estimated Useful Life
Building improvements	15 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment	7 years
Computer equipment	5 years

Intangible Assets - Acquired intangible assets are recorded at estimated fair value, net of accumulated amortization. Costs incurred in obtaining certain patents and intellectual property as well as software development expenses, are capitalized and amortized over their related estimated useful lives, using a straight-line basis consistent with the underlying expected future cash flows related to the specific intangible asset. Costs to renew or extend the life of intangible assets are capitalized and amortized over the remaining useful life of the asset. Amortization expenses are included as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.  The Company's continued ability to extend and/or renew the rights associated with these intangible assets may have an impact on future cash flows.

Useful life estimates for the Company's significant intangible asset classes are as follows:

	Useful Life
Patent Costs	20 years
Software Licenses	7 years
Software Development Costs	15 years

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Company reviews long-lived assets, at least annually, to determine if impairment has occurred and whether the economic benefit of the asset (fair value of assets to be used and fair value less disposal cost for assets to be disposed of) is expected to be less than the carrying value.  Triggering events, which signal further analysis, consist of a significant decrease in the asset's market value, a substantial change in the use of an asset, a significant physical change in the asset, a significant change in the legal or business climate that could affect the asset, an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected to acquire or construct the asset, or a history of losses that imply continued loss associated with assets used to generate revenue.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share – The basic computation of loss per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period presented in accordance with ASC 260, "Earnings Per Share”.  The computation of diluted earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period plus the common stock equivalents which would arise from the exercise of stock options and warrants outstanding using the treasury stock method and the average market price per share during the period.  Common stock equivalents are not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation when their effect is antidilutive.

F -9

Income Taxes - Income taxes are provided in accordance with ASC 740 Accounting for Income Taxes. A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net change during the year of deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion of all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Provision for income taxes consists of federal and state income taxes in the United States. Due to uncertainty as to the realization of benefits from our deferred tax assets, including net operating loss carry-forwards and other tax credits, we have a full valuation allowance reserved against such assets. We expect to maintain this full valuation allowance at least in the near term.

Share-Based Payments and Stock-Based Compensation – Share-based compensation awards, including stock options and restricted stock awards, are recorded at estimated fair value on the applicable award’s grant date, based on estimated number of awards that are expected to vest. The grant date fair value is amortized on a straight-line basis over the time in which the awards are expected to vest, or immediately if no vesting is required. Share-based compensation awards issued to non-employees for services are recorded at either the fair value of the services rendered or the fair value of the share-based payments whichever is more readily determinable. The fair value of restricted stock awards is based on the fair value of the stock underlying the awards on the grant date as there is no exercise price.

Recently Enacted Accounting Standards - From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by FASB that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date.  If not discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which supersedes Topic 840, Leases (“ASU 2016-02”). The guidance in this new standard requires lessees to put most leases on their balance sheets but recognize expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to the current accounting and eliminates the current real estate-specific provisions for all entities. The guidance also modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases for lessors. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02.

In May 2014, in addition to several amendments issued during 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” This pronouncement updated the accounting guidance related to revenue from contracts with customers, which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. The standard defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP.  These updates are effective for the Company for its annual period ending December 31, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09.

NOTE 2 –GOING CONCERN

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, during the year ended December 31, 2018 the Company incurred a net loss of $17,150,967 and inception to date losses are equal to $67,047,343.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.  In this regard, management is proposing to raise any necessary additional funds not provided by operations through investment capital.  There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising this additional capital or in achieving profitable operations.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

NOTE 4 – INTANGIBLE ASSETS

In accordance with ASC 350-40, ASC 350-50, and ASC 985-20, during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company capitalized $2,332,715 and $1,563,122, respectively, towards the development of software, intellectual property, and patent expenses.

The Company amortizes these costs over their related useful lives (approximately 7 to 20 years), using a straight-line basis. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques, including market and income approaches as considered necessary. The Company recorded amortization of $455,999 and $443,021 related to intangible assets during years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Intangible assets consisted of the following at December 31, 2018 and 2017:

Restricted Stock Commitments

The Company has committed to settling a significant portion of its current accounts payable balances through the future issuance of restricted stock units.  While the terms of these agreements have not yet been formalized with employees and outside contractors, they could have a potentially dilutive effect to current shareholders.

Contingent Liability

On October 15, 2011, the Company entered into an agreement with a consultant by which the consultant’s invoices for the previous four months would be accrued as a liability to be paid out upon (a) the Company’s successful raising of $10,000,000 in capital funding, or (b) the Company reaching total revenues of $10,000,000.  The Company had a balance due under this agreement of $37,500 December 31, 2017.  In 2018, the Company reached its capital funding threshold under the agreement and reclassified the entire $37,500 liability to a payable. 

Legal Proceedings

On December 2, 2016, AltEnergy Cyber, LLC ("Plaintiff") instituted a legal action in Connecticut against the Company and Robert Zahm.  The complaint alleged that (i) the Company improperly extended the maturity date of the Plaintiff’s convertible note in the amount of $1,500,000 and (ii) improperly converted the loan into the Company’s stock. The Complaint alleges that the Company is liable to the Plaintiff for $4,500,000 plus interest.  During the year ended December 31, 2017, Robert Zahm was dismissed from the proceedings for lack of personal jurisdiction.

On March 29, 2018, the AltEnergy Cyber, LLC’s legal action was dismissed through a motion for summary judgement.

NOTE 12 – EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Net earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period.

Since the Company reflected a net loss for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, the effect of considering any common stock equivalents, if exercisable, would have been anti-dilutive. Therefore, a separate computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share is not presented.

The Company has the following common stock equivalents as of December 31, 2018 and 2017:

	As of December 31, 2018		As of December 31, 2017

NOTE 13 – BUSINESS ACQUISITION

On September 6, 2016, the Company and BlackRidge entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Reorganization Agreement”) originally dated as of September 6, 2016, and amended on February 22, 2017 to update the number of common shares, warrants, and options granted and outstanding as of the closing date. 

On February 22, 2017, we completed the actions contemplated by the Reorganization Agreement and merged with and into BlackRidge with BlackRidge continuing as the surviving corporation (“Reorganization”). Upon completion of the Agreement, we issued 3,783,791 shares of our newly designated Series A Preferred Stock and 12,825,683 shares of Common Stock to the stockholders of BlackRidge in exchange for all the issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Common Stock of BlackRidge.  Additionally, certain stockholders of BlackRidge returned for cancellation a total of 16,284,330 shares of our Common Stock.  Upon the completion of the Reorganization, BlackRidge became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company had a total of 3,783,791 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and 21,790,683 shares of Common Stock outstanding, with the former BlackRidge stockholders owning 3,783,791 shares or 100% of Series A Preferred Stock and 12,825,683 shares or approximately 58.9% of Common Stock.  Upon completion of the Reorganization, we also had outstanding warrants entitling the holders to acquire a total of 18,541,579 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an average exercise price of $0.46 per share.  The Reorganization resulted in a change of control of the Company.  For accounting purposes, BlackRidge was treated as the acquirer and the historical financial statements of BlackRidge became the Company’s historical financial statements.  The acquisition is intended to constitute a tax-free reorganization pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

NOTE 14 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On March 31, 2017, the Company completed the sale of substantially all the assets, other than cash, used in or connection with the Company's home grain mill and kitchen mixer business to John Hofman and Bruce Crane, former officers and directors of the Company, in consideration for the assumption by such persons of substantially all the liabilities incurred by the Company in connection with such business.  The assets divested consisted of the non-cybersecurity assets of the Company and included accounts receivable, inventory, deposits, property and equipment and intangible assets.  The liabilities divested included the non-cybersecurity liabilities of the Company and included accounts payable and accrued expenses and long and short-term notes payable and accrued interest thereon.  Upon completion of the divestiture, the Company recognized a $484,927 loss on disposal.  Additionally, during the period from February 22, 2017 through March 31, 2017, the Company incurred a loss from discontinued operations of $8,737.

The following table shows the value of assets and liabilities divested:

NOTE 15 – INCOME TAXES

Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due.  Deferred taxes relate to differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting which will be either taxable or deductible when the assets or liabilities are recovered or settled.

At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had net operating loss (“NOL”) carry-forwards for Federal income tax purposes approximating $51,417,242 and $34,394,555 respectively. At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company’s NOL carry-forwards for state income purposes are approximating $59,104,026 and $26,508,562, respectively. These losses are available for future years and expire through 2037. The Federal NOL generated for the tax year ended 12/31/2018 of $11,491,743 will not expire due to NOLs having an indefinite life as enacted in the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

The deferred tax asset at December 31, 2018 and 2017 is summarized as follows:

	December 31, 2018			December 31, 2017
Net operating loss & credit carry forwards	$	11,878,168		$	7,897,392
Inventory obsolescence reserve		72,645			77,993
Accrued wages, related party		990,408			1,216,954
Accrued interest – convertible debt, related party		270,904			290,845
Depreciation and amortization		(508,882	)		(125,749	)
Other tax adjustments		4,119			3,566
Deferred Revenue		(4,363	)		(4,625	)
Valuation allowance		(12,702,998	)		(9,356,375	)
	$	-		$	-

The Company has taken a 100% valuation allowance against the deferred asset attributable to the NOL carry-forwards and other temporary differences of approximately $12,702,998 and $9,356,375 at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, due to the uncertainty of realizing the future tax benefits.  The decrease and increase in valuation allowances for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 of approximately $3,346,623 and ($2,390,872), respectively, are primarily attributable to the Company’s net operating loss during the years then ended, and true ups for state NOLs.

The following table displays a reconciliation from the U.S. statutory rate to the effective tax rate and the provision for (benefit from) income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively:

	2018			2017
Tax (expense)/benefit at the US statutory rate of 21%	$	(3,346,623	)	$	2,390,872
Change in valuation allowance		3,346,623			(2,390,872	)
	$	-		$	-

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes.”  This standard requires the Company to provide a net deferred tax asset or liability equal to the expected future tax benefit or expense of temporary reporting differences between book and tax accounting and any available operating loss or tax credit carryforwards.

The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.  During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recognized no interest and penalties.  The Company had no accruals for interest and penalties at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

The tax years 2019, 2018, 2017, and 2016 remain open to examination for federal income tax purposes and by the other major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.

Note 1 - Summary of Signicant Accounting Policies

Note 1 - Summary of Signicant Accounting Policies

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization – BlackRidge Technology International, Inc. (the "Company" or, “we”, “us”, “our” and similar terminology) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on March 15, 2004 under the name “Grote Molen, Inc.”   The Company develops and markets next generation cyber defense solutions that stop cyber-attacks and block unauthenticated access. The Company’s network and server security products are based on patented Transport Access Control technology (the “Blackridge Technology”) and are designed to isolate, cloak and protect servers and cloud services and segment networks for regulatory compliance. The Company’s products are used in enterprise and government computing environments, the industrial “internet of things” and other cloud service provider and network systems

On September 6, 2016, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of reorganization with BlackRidge Technology International, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Grote Merger Co., a Delaware corporation providing for the Company’s acquisition of BlackRidge in exchange for a controlling number of shares of the Company’s preferred and common stock pursuant to the merger of Grote Merger Co. with and into BlackRidge, with BlackRidge continuing as the surviving corporation.    The transaction contemplated in the agreement closed on February 22, 2017.

On July 2, 2017, the Company filed a Certificate to Accompany Restated Articles or Amended and Restated Articles with the Secretary of State of Nevada to, among other things, change the Company’s name to BlackRidge Technology International, Inc.

On September 22, 2017, the Company formed a new business subsidiary called BlackRidge Secure Blockchain, Inc. to pursue new market opportunities for securing blockchain applications.  On August 31, 2018, the Company filed for the dissolution of Blackridge Secure Blockchain Inc. after determining it would not be utilized.

On October 13, 2017, the Company formed a new business subsidiary called BlackRidge Secure Services, Inc. to work with partners on Secure Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition Systems (“SCADA”) infrastructure and to design and deliver secure systems using BlackRidge Technology products for use by the utilities industry.

Principles of Consolidation - The Company and its subsidiaries consist of the following entities, which have been consolidated in the accompanying financial statements:

BlackRidge Technology International, Inc.

BlackRidge Technology Holding, Inc.

BlackRidge Technology, Inc.

BlackRidge Technology Government, Inc.

BlackRidge Secure Services, Inc.

All intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The Company's financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable and convertible debt.  The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value because of the short-term nature of these items.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of 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, the disclosures 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 estimated by management.

Concentrations - Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable. The Company minimizes its credit risk associated with cash by periodically evaluating the credit quality of its primary financial institution. The cash balance at times may exceed federally insured limits. Management believes the financial risk associated with these balances is minimal and has not experienced any losses to date.  At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had cash balances in excess of FDIC insured limits of $4,110,236 and $169,751. 

Significant customers are those which represent more than 10% of the Company’s revenue for each period presented, or the Company’s accounts receivable balance as of each respective balance sheet date. For each significant customer, revenue as a percentage of total revenue and accounts receivable as a percentage of total net accounts receivable are as follows:

	Revenue						Accounts Receivable
	Year Ended December 31,						December 31,
Customers	2018			2017			2018			2017
Customer A		77	%		-	%		-	%		-	%
Customer B		10	%		12	%		-	%		15	%
Customer C		4	%		41	%		-	%		-	%
Customer D		-	%		34	%		-	%		-	%

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid debt investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - Accounts receivable represents trade obligations from customers that are subject to normal trade collection terms and are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of any allowance for doubtful accounts, and do not typically bear interest. The Company assesses the collectability of the accounts by taking into consideration the aging of accounts receivable, changes in customer credit worthiness, general market and economic conditions, and historical experience. Bad debt expenses are recorded as part of selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company writes off the receivable balance against the allowance when management determines a balance is uncollectible. The Company also reviews its customer discounts and an accrual is made for discounts earned but not yet utilized at each period end.  The Company does not believe there to be any question as to the collectability of its receivables as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 and has, therefore, not created an allowance as of this date.

Inventory - Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market value. Product-related inventories are primarily maintained using the average cost method.  When market value is determined to be less than cost, the Company records an allowance for obsolescence.  The company’s inventory assets December 31, 2018 and 2017 consisted primarily of hardware appliances valued as follows:

	As of           December 31,     2018		As of December 31, 2017
Inventory	$	391,658	$	376,063
Less: allowance for obsolescence		(335,655)		(335,655)
	$	56,003	$	40,408

Revenue Recognition - We account for product revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 605, Revenue Recognition, and all related interpretations.  Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable. Revenue generally is recognized net of allowances for returns and any taxes collected from customers and subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.

Revenue recognition for multiple-element arrangements requires judgment to determine if multiple elements exist, whether elements can be accounted for as separate units of accounting, and if so, the fair value for each of the elements.

The Company may enter into arrangements that can include various combinations of software, services, and hardware. Where elements are delivered over different periods of time, and when allowed under U.S. GAAP, revenue is allocated to the respective elements based on their relative selling prices at the inception of the arrangement, and revenue is recognized as each element is delivered. We use a hierarchy to determine the fair value to be used for allocating revenue to elements: (i) vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value ("VSOE"), (ii) third-party evidence, and (iii) best estimate of selling price ("ESP"). For software elements, we follow the industry specific software guidance which only allows for the use of VSOE in establishing fair value. Generally, VSOE is the price charged when the deliverable is sold separately, or the price established by management for a product that is not yet sold if it is probable that the price will not change before introduction into the marketplace. ESPs are established as best estimates of what the selling prices would be if the deliverables were sold regularly on a stand-alone basis. Our process for determining ESPs requires judgment and considers multiple factors that may vary over time depending upon the unique facts and circumstances related to each deliverable.

Any revenue received that does not yet meet the above recognition standards is recorded to unearned revenue and held as a liability until recognition occurs.

Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets or, in the case of leasehold improvements, the remaining lease term, if shorter. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the assets and related accumulated depreciation are removed, and the resulting gains or losses are recorded as part of other income or expense in the statements of operations. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

The estimated useful lives of the property and equipment are as follows:

Property and Equipment	Estimated Useful Life
Building improvements	15 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment	7 years
Computer equipment	5 years

Intangible Assets - Acquired intangible assets are recorded at estimated fair value, net of accumulated amortization. Costs incurred in obtaining certain patents and intellectual property as well as software development expenses, are capitalized and amortized over their related estimated useful lives, using a straight-line basis consistent with the underlying expected future cash flows related to the specific intangible asset. Costs to renew or extend the life of intangible assets are capitalized and amortized over the remaining useful life of the asset. Amortization expenses are included as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.  The Company's continued ability to extend and/or renew the rights associated with these intangible assets may have an impact on future cash flows.

Useful life estimates for the Company's significant intangible asset classes are as follows:

	Useful Life
Patent Costs	20 years
Software Licenses	7 years
Software Development Costs	15 years

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Company reviews long-lived assets, at least annually, to determine if impairment has occurred and whether the economic benefit of the asset (fair value of assets to be used and fair value less disposal cost for assets to be disposed of) is expected to be less than the carrying value.  Triggering events, which signal further analysis, consist of a significant decrease in the asset's market value, a substantial change in the use of an asset, a significant physical change in the asset, a significant change in the legal or business climate that could affect the asset, an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected to acquire or construct the asset, or a history of losses that imply continued loss associated with assets used to generate revenue.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share – The basic computation of loss per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period presented in accordance with ASC 260, "Earnings Per Share”.  The computation of diluted earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period plus the common stock equivalents which would arise from the exercise of stock options and warrants outstanding using the treasury stock method and the average market price per share during the period.  Common stock equivalents are not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation when their effect is antidilutive.

Income Taxes - Income taxes are provided in accordance with ASC 740 Accounting for Income Taxes. A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net change during the year of deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion of all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Provision for income taxes consists of federal and state income taxes in the United States. Due to uncertainty as to the realization of benefits from our deferred tax assets, including net operating loss carry-forwards and other tax credits, we have a full valuation allowance reserved against such assets. We expect to maintain this full valuation allowance at least in the near term.

Share-Based Payments and Stock-Based Compensation – Share-based compensation awards, including stock options and restricted stock awards, are recorded at estimated fair value on the applicable award’s grant date, based on estimated number of awards that are expected to vest. The grant date fair value is amortized on a straight-line basis over the time in which the awards are expected to vest, or immediately if no vesting is required. Share-based compensation awards issued to non-employees for services are recorded at either the fair value of the services rendered or the fair value of the share-based payments whichever is more readily determinable. The fair value of restricted stock awards is based on the fair value of the stock underlying the awards on the grant date as there is no exercise price.

Recently Enacted Accounting Standards - From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by FASB that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date.  If not discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which supersedes Topic 840, Leases (“ASU 2016-02”). The guidance in this new standard requires lessees to put most leases on their balance sheets but recognize expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to the current accounting and eliminates the current real estate-specific provisions for all entities. The guidance also modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases for lessors. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02.

In May 2014, in addition to several amendments issued during 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” This pronouncement updated the accounting guidance related to revenue from contracts with customers, which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. The standard defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP.  These updates are effective for the Company for its annual period ending December 31, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09.

NOTE 2 –GOING CONCERN

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, during the year ended December 31, 2018 the Company incurred a net loss of $17,150,967 and inception to date losses are equal to $67,047,343.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.  In this regard, management is proposing to raise any necessary additional funds not provided by operations through investment capital.  There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising this additional capital or in achieving profitable operations.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

NOTE 12 – EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Net earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period.

Since the Company reflected a net loss for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, the effect of considering any common stock equivalents, if exercisable, would have been anti-dilutive. Therefore, a separate computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share is not presented.

NOTE 13 – BUSINESS ACQUISITION

On September 6, 2016, the Company and BlackRidge entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Reorganization Agreement”) originally dated as of September 6, 2016, and amended on February 22, 2017 to update the number of common shares, warrants, and options granted and outstanding as of the closing date. 

On February 22, 2017, we completed the actions contemplated by the Reorganization Agreement and merged with and into BlackRidge with BlackRidge continuing as the surviving corporation (“Reorganization”). Upon completion of the Agreement, we issued 3,783,791 shares of our newly designated Series A Preferred Stock and 12,825,683 shares of Common Stock to the stockholders of BlackRidge in exchange for all the issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Common Stock of BlackRidge.  Additionally, certain stockholders of BlackRidge returned for cancellation a total of 16,284,330 shares of our Common Stock.  Upon the completion of the Reorganization, BlackRidge became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company had a total of 3,783,791 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and 21,790,683 shares of Common Stock outstanding, with the former BlackRidge stockholders owning 3,783,791 shares or 100% of Series A Preferred Stock and 12,825,683 shares or approximately 58.9% of Common Stock.  Upon completion of the Reorganization, we also had outstanding warrants entitling the holders to acquire a total of 18,541,579 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an average exercise price of $0.46 per share.  The Reorganization resulted in a change of control of the Company.  For accounting purposes, BlackRidge was treated as the acquirer and the historical financial statements of BlackRidge became the Company’s historical financial statements.  The acquisition is intended to constitute a tax-free reorganization pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

Note 15 - Income Taxes

NOTE 15 – INCOME TAXES

Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due.  Deferred taxes relate to differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting which will be either taxable or deductible when the assets or liabilities are recovered or settled.

At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had net operating loss (“NOL”) carry-forwards for Federal income tax purposes approximating $51,417,242 and $34,394,555 respectively. At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company’s NOL carry-forwards for state income purposes are approximating $59,104,026 and $26,508,562, respectively. These losses are available for future years and expire through 2037. The Federal NOL generated for the tax year ended 12/31/2018 of $11,491,743 will not expire due to NOLs having an indefinite life as enacted in the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

The deferred tax asset at December 31, 2018 and 2017 is summarized as follows:

		December 31, 2018		December 31, 2017
Net operating loss & credit carry forwards	$	11,878,168	$	7,897,392
Inventory obsolescence reserve		72,645		77,993
Accrued wages, related party		990,408		1,216,954
Accrued interest – convertible debt, related party		270,904		290,845
Depreciation and amortization		(508,882)		(125,749)
Other tax adjustments		4,119		3,566
Deferred Revenue		(4,363)		(4,625)
Valuation allowance		(12,702,998)		(9,356,375)
	$	-	$	-

The Company has taken a 100% valuation allowance against the deferred asset attributable to the NOL carry-forwards and other temporary differences of approximately $12,702,998 and $9,356,375 at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, due to the uncertainty of realizing the future tax benefits.  The decrease and increase in valuation allowances for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 of approximately $3,346,623 and ($2,390,872), respectively, are primarily attributable to the Company’s net operating loss during the years then ended, and true ups for state NOLs .

The following table displays a reconciliation from the U.S. statutory rate to the effective tax rate and the provision for (benefit from) income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively:

		2018		2017
Tax (expense)/benefit at the US statutory rate of 21%	$	(3,346,623)	$	2,390,872
Change in valuation allowance		3,346,623		(2,390,872)
	$	-	$	-

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes.”  This standard requires the Company to provide a net deferred tax asset or liability equal to the expected future tax benefit or expense of temporary reporting differences between book and tax accounting and any available operating loss or tax credit carryforwards.

The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.  During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recognized no interest and penalties.  The Company had no accruals for interest and penalties at December 31, 2018 and 2017.

The tax years 2019, 2018, 2017, and 2016 remain open to examination for federal income tax purposes and by the other major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.

Concentrations

Concentrations - Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable. The Company minimizes its credit risk associated with cash by periodically evaluating the credit quality of its primary financial institution. The cash balance at times may exceed federally insured limits. Management believes the financial risk associated with these balances is minimal and has not experienced any losses to date.  At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had cash balances in excess of FDIC insured limits of $4,110,236 and $169,751. 

Significant customers are those which represent more than 10% of the Company’s revenue for each period presented, or the Company’s accounts receivable balance as of each respective balance sheet date. For each significant customer, revenue as a percentage of total revenue and accounts receivable as a percentage of total net accounts receivable are as follows:

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - Accounts receivable represents trade obligations from customers that are subject to normal trade collection terms and are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of any allowance for doubtful accounts, and do not typically bear interest. The Company assesses the collectability of the accounts by taking into consideration the aging of accounts receivable, changes in customer credit worthiness, general market and economic conditions, and historical experience. Bad debt expenses are recorded as part of selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company writes off the receivable balance against the allowance when management determines a balance is uncollectible. The Company also reviews its customer discounts and an accrual is made for discounts earned but not yet utilized at each period end.  The Company does not believe there to be any question as to the collectability of its receivables as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 and has, therefore, not created an allowance as of this date.

Revenue Recognition, Policy

Revenue Recognition - We account for product revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 605, Revenue Recognition, and all related interpretations.  Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable. Revenue generally is recognized net of allowances for returns and any taxes collected from customers and subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.

Revenue recognition for multiple-element arrangements requires judgment to determine if multiple elements exist, whether elements can be accounted for as separate units of accounting, and if so, the fair value for each of the elements.

The Company may enter into arrangements that can include various combinations of software, services, and hardware. Where elements are delivered over different periods of time, and when allowed under U.S. GAAP, revenue is allocated to the respective elements based on their relative selling prices at the inception of the arrangement, and revenue is recognized as each element is delivered. We use a hierarchy to determine the fair value to be used for allocating revenue to elements: (i) vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value ("VSOE"), (ii) third-party evidence, and (iii) best estimate of selling price ("ESP"). For software elements, we follow the industry specific software guidance which only allows for the use of VSOE in establishing fair value. Generally, VSOE is the price charged when the deliverable is sold separately, or the price established by management for a product that is not yet sold if it is probable that the price will not change before introduction into the marketplace. ESPs are established as best estimates of what the selling prices would be if the deliverables were sold regularly on a stand-alone basis. Our process for determining ESPs requires judgment and considers multiple factors that may vary over time depending upon the unique facts and circumstances related to each deliverable.

Any revenue received that does not yet meet the above recognition standards is recorded to unearned revenue and held as a liability until recognition occurs.

Depreciation and amortization is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets or, in the case of leasehold improvements, the remaining lease term, if shorter. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the assets and related accumulated depreciation are removed, and the resulting gains or losses are recorded as part of other income or expense in the statements of operations. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

Costs incurred in obtaining certain patents and intellectual property as well as software development expenses, are capitalized and amortized over their related estimated useful lives, using a straight-line basis consistent with the underlying expected future cash flows related to the specific intangible asset. Costs to renew or extend the life of intangible assets are capitalized and amortized over the remaining useful life of the asset. Amortization expenses are included as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.  The Company's continued ability to extend and/or renew the rights associated with these intangible assets may have an impact on future cash flows.

Income Tax, Policy

Income Taxes - Income taxes are provided in accordance with ASC 740 Accounting for Income Taxes. A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net change during the year of deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion of all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Provision for income taxes consists of federal and state income taxes in the United States. Due to uncertainty as to the realization of benefits from our deferred tax assets, including net operating loss carry-forwards and other tax credits, we have a full valuation allowance reserved against such assets. We expect to maintain this full valuation allowance at least in the near term.

The grant date fair value is amortized on a straight-line basis over the time in which the awards are expected to vest, or immediately if no vesting is required. Share-based compensation awards issued to non-employees for services are recorded at either the fair value of the services rendered or the fair value of the share-based payments whichever is more readily determinable.

Recently Enacted Accounting Standards

Recently Enacted Accounting Standards - From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by FASB that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date.  If not discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which supersedes Topic 840, Leases (“ASU 2016-02”). The guidance in this new standard requires lessees to put most leases on their balance sheets but recognize expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to the current accounting and eliminates the current real estate-specific provisions for all entities. The guidance also modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases for lessors. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02.

In May 2014, in addition to several amendments issued during 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” This pronouncement updated the accounting guidance related to revenue from contracts with customers, which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. The standard defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP.  These updates are effective for the Company for its annual period ending December 31, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09.
