Description of Business
Worldwide NFT Inc. does not have significant operations. It intends to effect a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization, or similar business combination with one or more businesses. The company was founded in 2012 and is headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Based on our proposed business activities, we are a “blank check” company. The SEC defines those companies as “any development stage company that is issuing a penny stock, within the meaning of Section 3(a)(51) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”) and that has no specific business plan or purpose or has indicated that its business plan is to merge with an unidentified company or companies.” Under SEC Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), we also qualify as a “shell company,” because we have no or nominal assets (other than cash) and no or nominal operations. Many states have enacted statutes, rules and regulations limiting the sale of securities of “blank check” companies in their respective jurisdictions. We intend to comply with the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for so long as we are subject to those requirements.
Corporate Background
We were incorporated on July 12, 2010, under the laws of the State of Nevada. We were never able to raise sufficient capital to engage in the business of providing web-based services to connect employers in and individuals seeking employment in the UK and Ireland. On February 26, 2013, our two founding officers and directors resigned and were replaced by Warwick Calasse who assumed the title of President, CEO, CFO, Secretary, Treasurer and sole member of our Board of Directors. We disclosed that on January 1, 2013, that we had entered into an Assignment Agreement with dated January 21, 2013, between Golden Glory Panama, as assignee, and Sertesaz Ltd. and C&ENER SA, the Colombian owners that owned 60% and 40% of the concession in return for shares of our common stock and cash payments through March 7, 2016, of over $3,000.000 comprised of payments for the option to purchase 100% of the mining concessions and mining development expenditures.
Our last financial report prior to filing a Form 15 discussed below was a Form 10-Q filed February 20, 2013, for the quarter ended December 31, 2012.
On June 29, 2016, we filed a Form 15 with the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to voluntarily effect the deregistration of our common stock. We were eligible to deregister by filing a Form 15 because we had fewer than 300 holders of record of our common stock. Upon the filing of Form 15, our obligation to file certain reports with the SEC, including Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, was immediately suspended.

On May 26, 2021, George Sharp was appointed as our Custodian by Order Granting Motion to (1) Intervene, (2) Remove Custodian, (3) Appoint George Sharp as Custodian, and (4) for Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary Injunction on Order Shortening Time, Case No A-20-815182-B, Dept. No. XVI issued by the District Court of the State of Nevada in and for Clark County (the “Court Order”). Under his authority as Custodian, George Sharp appointed himself as the sole member of the Board and President, Secretary and Treasurer of the Company by resolutions of the registrant’s Board of Directors on May 26, 2021. On August 29, 2021, in recognition of the $50,000 cash invested and $50,000 in consulting fees accrued by George Sharp for professional and regulatory fees to reinstate the registrant in the State of Nevada and to have the registrant become current in its filings under the SEC’s recently imposed requirements for public companies operating under SEC Rule 15c2-11, the Board issued 300,000 shares of the authorized “blank check” preferred stock to George Sharp with 10,000 votes for each share of preferred stock to give voting control to Mr. Sharp. The registrant has engaged BF Borgers as its principal accountant to audit the registrant’s annual financial statements and to review its quarterly financial statements required to be filed with the SEC under the registrant’s reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Since we issued the 300,000 shares of Series A preferred stock to George Sharp we became aware through our transfer agent that in March 2013 the Company issued to a new President, Mr. Warwick Calasse, 5,000,000 shares of Series A preferred stock with each share of Series A preferred stock having the voting power of 294 shares of common stock. We have attempted to contact Mr. Calasse without success. Accordingly, on October 22, 2021, we issued 4,700,000 shares of Series A preferred stock and 1,000,000 shares of common stock to George Sharp to give him voting control of all matters submitted to the shareholders of the Company’s common stock. See “Risk Factors”, below.
It is anticipated that the investigation of specific business opportunities and the negotiation, drafting and execution of relevant agreements, disclosure documents and other instruments will require substantial management time and attention and substantial cost for accountants, attorneys and others. If a decision is made not to participate in a specific business opportunity, the costs theretofore incurred in the related investigation would not be recoverable. Furthermore, even if an agreement is reached for the participation in a specific business opportunity, the failure to consummate that transaction may result in our loss of the related costs incurred.
All such costs for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be paid with money in our treasury, if any, or possibly with additional money contributed by George Sharp, our sole director and officer, or another source identified by him.
Competition
We will remain an insignificant participant among the firms which engage in the acquisition of business opportunities. There are many established venture capital and financial concerns which have significantly greater financial and personnel resources and technical expertise than us. In view of our limited financial resources and limited management availability, we may be at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors.
Employees
We presently have no employees. George Sharp, our President, Secretary and Treasurer, is engaged in outside business activities and anticipates that he will devote to our business a limited time until the acquisition of a successful business opportunity has been identified. We expect no significant changes in the number of our employees other than such changes, if any, incident to a business combination.
Our Principal Office
Our principal office in space provided to us by Mr. Sharp at 3535 Executive Terminal Drive, Henderson, NV 89052 and our telephone number is (702)-840-4433.
Management of the Company will have substantial flexibility in identifying and selecting a prospective new business opportunity. The Company is dependent on the judgment of its management in connection with this process. In evaluating a prospective business opportunity, we would consider, among other factors, the following:
| ● | costs associated with pursuing a new business opportunity; | |
| ● | growth potential of the new business opportunity; | |
| ● | experiences, skills and availability of additional personnel necessary to pursue a potential new business opportunity; | |
| ● | necessary capital requirements; | |
| ● | the competitive position of the new business opportunity; | |
| ● | the competitive position of the new business opportunity; |
| 5 |
| ● | stage of business development; | |
| ● | the market acceptance of the potential products and services; | |
| ● | proprietary features and degree of intellectual property; and | |
| ● | the regulatory environment that may be applicable to any prospective business opportunity. |
The foregoing criteria are not intended to be exhaustive and there may be other criteria that management may deem relevant. In connection with an evaluation of a prospective or potential business opportunity, management may be expected to conduct a due diligence review.
The time and costs required to pursue new business opportunities, which includes negotiating and documenting relevant agreements and preparing requisite documents for filing pursuant to applicable securities laws, cannot be ascertained with any degree of certainty. Management intends to devote such time as it deems necessary to carry out the Company’s affairs. The exact length of time required for the pursuit of any new potential business opportunities is uncertain. No assurance can be made that we will be successful in our efforts. We cannot project the amount of time that our management will actually devote to the Company’s plan of operation.
Effecting a Business Combination
Prospective investors in our common stock will not have an opportunity to evaluate the specific merits or risks of any of the one or more business combinations that we may undertake. A business combination may involve the acquisition of, or merger with, a company which needs to raise substantial additional capital by means of being a publicly trading company, while avoiding what it may deem to be adverse consequences of undertaking a public offering itself. These include time delays, significant expense, loss of voting control and compliance with various Federal and State securities laws. A business combination may involve a company which may be financially unstable or in its early stages of development or growth.
The Company Has Not Identified a Target Business or Target Industry
Our effort in identifying a prospective target business will not be limited to a particular industry and we may ultimately acquire a business in any industry management deems appropriate. To date, the Company has not selected any target business on which to concentrate our search for a business combination. While the Company intends to focus on target businesses in the United States, it is not limited to U.S. entities and may consummate a business combination with a target business outside of the United States. Accordingly, there is no basis for investors in the Company’s common stock to evaluate the possible merits or risks of the target business or the particular industry in which we may ultimately operate. To the extent we effect a business combination with a financially unstable company or an entity in its early stage of development or growth, including entities without established records of sales or earnings, we may be affected by numerous risks inherent in the business and operations of financially unstable and early stage or potential emerging growth companies. In addition, to the extent that we effect a business combination with an entity in an industry characterized by a high level of risk, we may be affected by the currently unascertainable risks of that industry. An extremely high level of risk frequently characterizes many industries which experience rapid growth. In addition, although the Company’s management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular industry or target business, we cannot assure you that we will properly ascertain or assess all significant risk factors.
Sources of Target Businesses
Our management anticipates that target business candidates will be brought to our attention from various unaffiliated sources, including securities broker-dealers, investment bankers, venture capitalists, bankers and other members of the financial community, who may present solicited or unsolicited proposals. Our management may also bring to our attention target business candidates. While we do not presently anticipate engaging the services of professional firms that specialize in business acquisitions on any formal basis, we may engage these firms in the future, in which event we may pay a finder’s fee or other compensation in connection with a business combination. In no event, however, will we pay management any finder’s fee or other compensation for services rendered to us prior to or in connection with the consummation of a business combination.
| 6 |
Selection of a Target Business and Structuring of a Business Combination
Management owns approximately 93% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company and will have broad flexibility in identifying and selecting a prospective target business. In evaluating a prospective target business, our management will consider, among other factors, the following:
| ● | financial condition and results of operation of the target company; | |
| ● | growth potential; | |
| ● | experience and skill of management and availability of additional personnel; | |
| ● | capital requirements; | |
| ● | competitive position; | |
| ● | stage of development of the products, processes or services; | |
| ● | degree of current or potential market acceptance of the products, processes or services; | |
| ● | proprietary features and degree of intellectual property or other protection of the products, processes or services; | |
| ● | regulatory environment of the industry; and | |
| ● | costs associated with effecting the business combination. |
These criteria are not intended to be exhaustive. Any evaluation relating to the merits of a particular business combination will be based, to the extent relevant, on the above factors as well as other considerations deemed relevant by our management in effecting a business combination consistent with our business objective. In evaluating a prospective target business, we will conduct a due diligence review which will encompass, among other things, meetings with incumbent management and inspection of facilities, as well as review of financial and other information which will be made available to us.
We will endeavor to structure a business combination so as to achieve the most favorable tax treatment to us, the target business and both companies’ stockholders. However, there can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service or applicable state tax authorities will necessarily agree with the tax treatment of any business combination we consummate.
The time and costs required to select and evaluate a target business and to structure and complete the business combination cannot presently be ascertained with any degree of certainty. Any costs incurred with respect to the identification and evaluation of a prospective target business with which a business combination is not ultimately completed will result in a loss to us.
Probable Lack of Business Diversification
While we may seek to effect business combinations with more than one target business, it is more probable that we will only have the ability to effect a single business combination, if at all. Accordingly, the prospects for our success may be entirely dependent upon the future performance of a single business. Unlike other entities which may have the resources to complete several business combinations with entities operating in multiple industries or multiple areas of a single industry, it is probable that we will lack the resources to diversify our operations or benefit from the possible spreading of risks or offsetting of losses. By consummating a business combination with only a single entity, our lack of diversification may:
| ● | subject us to numerous economic, competitive and regulatory developments, any or all of which may have a substantial adverse impact upon the particular industry in which we may operate subsequent to a business combination, and | |
| ● | result in our dependency upon the development or market acceptance of a single or limited number of products, processes or services. |
Very Limited Liquidity of Our Common Stock
Our common stock occasionally trades on the OTC Pink Sheet Market, as there is no active market maker in our common stock. As a result, there is only limited liquidity in our common stock.
Limited Ability to Evaluate the Target Business’ Management
We cannot assure you that our assessment of the target business’ management will prove to be correct. In addition, we cannot assure you that the future management will have the necessary skills, qualifications or abilities to manage a public company intending to embark on a program of business development. Furthermore, the future role of our director, if any, in the target business cannot presently be stated with any certainty.
| 7 |
While it is possible that our director will remain associated in some capacity with us following a business combination, it is unlikely that he will devote his full efforts to our affairs subsequent to a business combination. Moreover, we cannot assure you that our director will have significant experience or knowledge relating to the operations of the particular target business.
Following a business combination, we may seek to recruit additional managers to supplement the incumbent management of the target business. We cannot assure you that we will have the ability to recruit additional managers, or that additional managers will have the requisite skills, knowledge or experience necessary to enhance the incumbent management.
Our auditors Has Expressed Substantial Doubt About Our Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
Our audited financial statements for the years ended June 30, 2021 and 2022, were prepared using the assumption that we will continue our operations as a going concern. Our independent accountants in their audit report have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our operations are dependent on our ability to raise sufficient capital or complete business combination as a result of which we become profitable. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. There is not enough cash on hand to fund our administrative expenses and operating expenses for the next twelve months. Therefore, we may be unable to continue operations in the future as a going concern. If we cannot continue as a viable entity, our stockholders may lose some or all of their investment in the Company’s shares of common stock.
Competition and Market Condition
In identifying, evaluating and selecting a target business, we expect to encounter intense competition from other entities having a business objective similar to ours. Many of these entities are well established and have extensive experience identifying and effecting business combinations, either directly or through affiliates. Many if not virtually most of these competitors possess far greater financial, human and other resources compared to our resources. While we believe that there are numerous potential target businesses that we may identify, our ability to compete in acquiring certain of the more desirable target businesses will be limited by our limited financial and human resources. Our inherent competitive limitations are expected by management to give others an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of a target business that we may identify and seek to pursue. Further, any of these limitations may place us at a competitive disadvantage in successfully negotiating a business combination. Our management believes, however, that our status as a reporting public entity with potential access to the United States public equity markets may give us a competitive advantage over certain privately-held entities having a similar business objective in acquiring a desirable target business with growth potential on favorable terms.
If we succeed in effecting a business combination, there will be, in all likelihood, intense competition from existing competitors of the business we acquire. In particular, certain industries which experience rapid growth frequently attract an increasingly larger number of competitors, including those with far greater financial, marketing, technical and other resources than the initial competitors in the industry in which we seek to operate. The degree of competition characterizing the industry of any prospective target business cannot presently be ascertained. We cannot assure you that, subsequent to a business combination, we will have the resources to compete effectively, especially to the extent that the target business is in a high-growth industry.
Employees
George Sharp, our Chief Executive Officer, is our sole executive officer. Mr. Sharp is not obligated to devote any specific number of hours per week and, in fact, intends to devote only as much time as he deems reasonably necessary to administer the Company’s affairs until such time as a business combination is consummated. The amount of time he will devote in any time period will vary based on the availability of suitable target businesses to investigate. We do not intend to have any full-time employees prior to the consummation of a business combination.
Conflicts of Interest
The Company’s management is not required to commit its full time to the Company’s affairs. As a result, pursuing new business opportunities may require a longer period of time than if management would devote full time to the Company’s affairs. management is not precluded from serving as an officer or director of any other entity that is engaged in business activities similar to those of the Company. management has not identified and is not currently negotiating a new business opportunity for us. In the future, management may become associated or affiliated with entities engaged in business activities similar to those we intend to conduct. In such event, management may have conflicts of interest in determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented. In the event that the Company’s management has multiple business affiliations, our management may have legal obligations to present certain business opportunities to multiple entities. In the event that a conflict of interest shall arise, management will consider factors such as reporting status, availability of audited financial statements, current capitalization and the laws of jurisdictions. If several business opportunities or operating entities approach management with respect to a business combination, management will consider the foregoing factors as well as the preferences of the management of the operating company. However, management will act in what it believes will be in the best interests of the shareholders of the Company. The Company shall not enter into a transaction with a target business that is affiliated with management.

Regulation
As of the date of this Report, we are required to file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”).
Depending on the direction management decides to take and a business or businesses we may acquire in the future, we may become subject to other laws or regulations that require us to make material expenditures on compliance including the increasing state-level regulation of privacy. Any such requirements could require us to divert significant human and capital resources on compliance, which could have an adverse effect on our future operating results.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The shares of our common stock are highly speculative in nature, involve a high degree of risk and should be purchased only by persons who can afford to lose the entire amount invested in the common stock. Before purchasing any of the shares of common stock, you should carefully consider the following factors relating to our business and prospects. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or operating results could be materially adversely affected. In such case, you may lose all or part of your investment. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this process before investing in our common stock.
Risks Relating to Our Business and Financial Condition
We currently have no operations, and investors, therefore, have no basis on which to evaluate the Company’s future prospects.
We currently have no operations and will be reliant upon a merger with or acquisition of an operating business to commence operations and generate revenue. Because we have no operations and have not generated revenues, investors have no basis upon which to evaluate our ability to achieve our business objective of locating and completing a business combination with a target business. We have no current arrangements or understandings with any prospective target business concerning a business combination and may be unable to complete a business combination in a reasonable timeframe, on reasonable terms, or at all. If we fail to complete a business combination as planned, we will never generate any operating revenues.
If our business plans are not successful, we may not be able to continue operations as a going concern and our stockholders may lose their entire investment in us.
We have no revenues and no operating business. We had a net loss of ($97,605) and $(20,068,332) for the years ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively, a working capital deficit of ($274,767) and ($177,162) and an accumulated stockholders’ deficit of ($20,941,817) and ($20,844,212) for the years ending June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The report of our independent registered public accountants on our financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2023, states that these conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our continued operations, which is dependent in turn upon our ability to meet our financial requirements, raise additional capital, and the success of our future operations.
Our principal business objective for the next twelve months will be to seek, investigate and, if such investigation warrants, engage in a business combination with a private entity whose business presents an opportunity for our stockholders. We cannot assure you that we can identify a suitable business opportunity and consummate a business combination.
We may require financing to acquire any business.
We may require financing to find an acquisition candidate and consummate a transaction. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in obtaining financing or locating a business to acquire or consummating a transaction or that any business we might acquire will be operated in a profitable manner.
We expect losses in the future because we have no revenue.
As we have no current revenue, we are expecting losses over the next 12 months because we do not yet have any revenues to offset the expenses associated with operating our company. We are not currently engaged in any revenue generating activities and cannot guarantee that we will ever be successful in generating revenues in the future. We recognize that if we are unable to generate revenues, we will not be able to earn profits or continue operations. There is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that we will prove successful, and we can provide investors with no assurance that we will generate any operating revenues or ever achieve profitable operations.

As a blank check company, we must comply with Rule 419 of the Securities Act if we undertake an offering of our common stock.
The Securities Act defines a “blank check company” as a development stage company that has no specific business plan or purpose whose business plan is to merge with an unidentified company or companies. Thus, we are a blank check company. Rule 419 of the Securities Act requires, in the case of a registered offering of our common stock, that we undertake certain procedural steps before any shares of stock or the proceeds of the offering are released. Such requirements include:
Depositing the net offering proceeds in escrow until an acquisition has been completed;
Depositing all securities sold in the public offering into escrow until the acquisition has been completed;
Giving public shareholders an opportunity to consider any proposed acquisition and a chance to either approve the transaction and retain their shares or get at least 90% of their funds returned from the escrow.
The need to comply with the provisions of Rule 419 could deter a target company from seeking to complete a transaction with us.
As a shell company, we are not eligible to rely upon Form S-8 to issue our securities and are subject to enhanced reporting requirements.
As a shell company we are not eligible to rely upon Form S-8 to issue securities. Further, as a blank check we are subject to enhanced specific reporting requirements, including requirements as to the information to be disclosed in connection with any public offering of our securities as specified in Rule 419. These enhanced disclosure provisions and the rights to be provided to any purchaser in a public offering of our securities impose substantial costs on and impediments to a public offering of our common stock.
Because we are a shell company and have no business, holders of our common stock may not rely upon Rule 144 until disclosure provisions applicable to blank check companies are satisfied.
Rule 144 provides that shares of our common stock may not be sold under Rule 144 until we have ceased to be a shell company and one year has elapsed from the date on which we have filed Form 10 information. Thus, a holder of our common stock may be required to hold his shares indefinitely.
The COVID-19 pandemic could materially adversely affect our financial condition, future plans and results of operations.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant adverse effect on the economy in the United States and on most businesses. The Company is not able to predict the ultimate impact that COVID -19 will have on its business; however, if the pandemic and government action in response thereto impose limitations on our operations or result in a prolonged economic recession or depression, the Company’s development and implementation of its business plan and our ability to commence and grow our operations, as well as our ability to generate material revenue therefrom, will be hindered, which would have a material negative impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
Our common stock is eligible for unsolicited quotes only that will limit the ability of a shareholder to purchase or sell our shares of common stock.
Our common stock is quoted on OTC Pink and is not eligible for proprietary broker-dealer quotations. All quotes in our shares of common stock must reflect only unsolicited customer orders. OTC Markets warns prospective purchasers of our common stock that “unsolicited-only stocks” (i) have a higher risk of wider spreads, increased volatility and price dislocations, (ii) investors may have difficulty selling this stock and (iii) an initial review by a broker-dealer under SEC Rule15c2-11 is required for brokers to publish competing quotes and provide continuous market making. Being an unsolicited only stock severely limits the number of investors that might purchase our common stock and effectively prevents the development of an active trading market in our shares. Before soliciting quotations or resuming quotations in an OTC stock that has been subject to a trading suspension, a broker-dealer must file a Form 211 with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) representing that it has satisfied all applicable requirements, including those of Rule 15c2-11 and FINRA Rule 6432. We can provide no assurance as to whether we will be able to find a broker/dealer to submit a Form 15c2-11 .

As a blank check company, our shareholders may face significant restrictions on the resale of our common stock due to state “blue sky” laws and due to the applicability of Rule 419.
There are state “blue sky” regulations that may adversely affect the transferability of our common stock. We have not registered our common stock for resale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any state. We are under no obligation to register or qualify our common stock in any state or to advise the shareholders of any exemptions.
We do not have any agreement for a business combination or other transaction.
We have not yet entered into any definitive agreement, nor do we have any binding commitment or understanding to enter into or become engaged in a merger with, joint venture with or acquisition of, a private or public entity. We cannot assure you that we will successfully identify and evaluate suitable business opportunities or that we will conclude a business combination. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to negotiate a business combination on favorable terms, and there is consequently a risk that future funds allocated to the purchase of our shares will not be invested in a company with active business operations.
Our future success is highly dependent on the ability of management to locate and attract a suitable acquisition.
The success of our proposed plan of operation will depend to a great extent on the operations, financial condition and management of the identified target company. While business combinations with entities having established operating histories are preferred, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in locating candidates meeting such criteria. The decision to enter into a business combination will likely be made without detailed feasibility studies, independent analysis, market surveys or similar information which, if we had more funds available to us, would be desirable. In the event we complete a business combination the success of our operations will be dependent upon management of the target company and numerous other factors beyond our control. We cannot assure you that we will identify a target company and consummate a business combination.
There is competition for those private companies suitable for a merger transaction of the type contemplated by management.
We are in a highly competitive market for business opportunities which could reduce the likelihood of consummating a successful business combination. We are and will continue to be an insignificant participant in the business of seeking mergers with, joint ventures with and acquisitions of small private and public entities. A large number of established and well-financed entities, including Special Purpose Acquisition Corporations (“SPACs”), small public companies and venture capital firms, are active in mergers and acquisitions of companies that may be desirable target candidates for us. Nearly all these entities have significantly greater financial resources, technical expertise and managerial capabilities than we do; consequently, we will be at a competitive disadvantage in identifying possible business opportunities and successfully completing a business combination. These competitive factors may reduce the likelihood of our identifying and consummating a successful business combination.
We are eligible to be treated as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.
We are an “emerging growth company”, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. For as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including (1) not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which we refer to as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (2) reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in this Form S-1 and our periodic reports and proxy statements and (3) exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. In addition, as an emerging growth company, we are only required to provide two years of audited financial statements and two years of selected financial data in this Form S-1. We could be an emerging growth company for up to five years, although circumstances could cause us to lose that status earlier, including if the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of any June 30 before that time or if we have total annual gross revenue of $1.0 billion or more during any fiscal year before that time, in which cases we would no longer be an emerging growth company as of the following December 31 or, if we issue more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during any three-year period before that time, we would cease to be an emerging growth company immediately. Even after we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, we may still qualify as a “smaller reporting company” which would allow us to take advantage of many of the same exemptions from disclosure requirements, including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements. 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.
| 11 |
Our independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to formally attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting until the later of our second annual report or the first annual report required to be filed with the SEC following the date we are no longer an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS “Act. We cannot assure you that there will not be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal controls in the future.
Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can also delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to avail ourselves of this exemption from new or revised accounting standards and, therefore, will not be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.
We have not conducted market research to identify business opportunities, which may affect our ability to identify a business to merge with or acquire.
We have neither conducted nor have others made available to us results of market research concerning prospective business opportunities. Therefore, we have no assurances that market demand exists for a merger or acquisition as contemplated by us. It may be expected that any target business or transaction will present a level of risk that conventional private or public offerings of securities or conventional bank financing will not be available. There is no assurance that we will be able to acquire a business opportunity on terms favorable to us. Decisions as to which business opportunity to participate in will be unilaterally made by our management, which may act without the consent, vote or approval of our stockholders.
Management intends to devote only a limited amount of time to seeking a target company which may adversely impact our ability to identify a suitable acquisition candidate.
While seeking a business combination, George Sharp, our President, Secretary and Treasurer, anticipates devoting a limited time to our affairs. In addition, Mr. Sharp has not entered into a written employment agreement with us and is not expected to do so in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, his limited commitment may adversely impact our ability to identify and consummate a successful business combination.
We are dependent on the services of George Sharp, our President, Secretary and Treasurer, to obtain capital required to implement our business plan and for identifying, investigating, negotiating and integrating potential acquisition opportunities. The loss of the services of Mr. Sharp could have a substantial adverse effect on us.
Our ability to acquire an operating business will be largely contingent on our ability to retain George Sharp upon whom we will rely to obtain capital required to implement our business plan and for identifying, investigating, negotiating and integrating potential acquisition candidates and to attract and retain a highly qualified corporate and operations level management team. The loss of the services of Mr. Sharp could have a substantial adverse effect on us.
The time and cost of preparing a private company to become a public reporting company may preclude us from entering into a merger or acquisition with the most attractive private companies.
Target companies that fail to comply with SEC reporting requirements may delay or preclude acquisition. Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act require reporting companies to provide certain information about significant acquisitions, including audited financial statements for the company acquired. The time and additional costs that may be incurred by some target entities to prepare these statements may significantly delay or essentially preclude consummation of an acquisition. Otherwise suitable acquisition prospects that do not have or are unable to obtain the required audited statements may be inappropriate for acquisition so long as the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act are applicable.
We may be subject to further government regulation which would adversely affect our operations.
Although we will be subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act, management believes we will not be subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), since we will not be engaged in the business of investing or trading in securities. If we engage in business combinations which result in our holding passive investment interests in a number of entities, we could be subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act. If so, we would be required to register as an investment company and could be expected to incur significant registration and compliance costs. We have obtained no formal determination from the SEC as to our status under the Investment Company Act and, consequently, violation of the Investment Company Act could subject us to material adverse consequences.
| 12 |
Any potential acquisition or merger with a foreign company may subject us to additional risks.
If we enter into a business combination with a foreign concern, we will be subject to risks inherent in business operations outside of the United States. These risks include, for example, currency fluctuations, regulatory problems, punitive tariffs, unstable local tax policies, trade embargoes, risks related to shipment of raw materials and finished goods across national borders and cultural and language differences. Foreign economies may differ favorably or unfavorably from the United States economy in growth of gross national product, rate of inflation, market development, rate of savings, and capital investment, resource self-sufficiency and balance of payments positions, and in other respects.
If we fail to develop and maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud, as a result, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reports, which could harm our business and the trading price of our common stock.
Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires us to evaluate and report on our internal controls over financial reporting. Compliance with Section 404 requires that we strengthen, assess and test our system of internal controls to provide the basis for our report. The process of strengthening our internal controls and complying with Section 404 is expensive and time consuming and requires significant management attention. We cannot be certain that the measures we undertake will ensure that we will maintain adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future. Furthermore, if we are able to rapidly grow our business, the internal controls that we will need will become more complex, and significantly more resources will be required to ensure our internal controls remain effective. Failure to implement required controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. If we discover a material weakness in our internal controls, the disclosure of that fact, even if the weakness is quickly remedied, could diminish investors’ confidence in our financial statements and harm our stock price. In addition, non-compliance with Section 404 could subject us to a variety of administrative sanctions, including the suspension of trading, ineligibility for listing on the OTC Markets, and the inability of registered broker-dealers to make a market in our common stock, which would further reduce our stock price.
Our sole officer and director, who will be responsible for preparing our financial statements and evaluating the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting is not qualified to do so.
George Sharp, our sole officer and director, has not been trained in accounting and has relevant but not extensive knowledge of United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable to financial reporting or to being a public company generally and limited experience in preparing financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and evaluating the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting.
Our lack of adequate accounting personnel is a material weakness in our financial reporting.
A company is deemed to have a material weakness in financial reporting when one or more of its internal controls over financial reporting are ineffective. Because we lack accounting personnel with training and experience in U. S. GAAP, financial reporting and the design and evaluation of internal controls over financial reporting, we have a material weakness which could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements. Any misstatement in our financial statements could cause us to have to restate our financial statements, which would be expensive, time consuming and adversely impact our ability to realize our business plan.
You will not have the ability to determine the outcome of matters requiring stockholder approval, including the acquisition of a target business.
It is anticipated that any acquisition we consummate will not require the consent of our shareholders. As a result, you will not have the ability to determine the outcome of matters related thereto.
There is no active trading market for our shares of common stock.
There is no active trading market for our common stock, particularly in light of our common stock being deemed “unsolicited-only” by OTC Markets as described in another risk factor above. There can be no assurance that a regular trading market for our securities will develop, or that if one develops, that it will be sustained. The trading price of our securities could be subject to wide fluctuations, in response to announcements by us or others, developments affecting us, and other events or factors. In addition, the stock market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations in recent years. These fluctuations have had a substantial effect on the market prices for many companies, often unrelated to the operating performance of such companies, and may adversely affect the market prices of the securities. Such risks could have an adverse effect on the stock’s future liquidity.
Our common stock is subject to the “Penny Stock” Rules of the SEC and the trading market in our securities is limited, which makes transactions in our stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our stock.
The SEC has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require: (a) that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks; and (b) the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.
| 13 |
To approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must: (a) obtain financial information and investment experience and objectives of the person; and (b) make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form: (a) sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and (b) that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common shares and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.
Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.
Under our Articles of Incorporation, our Board of Directors has the authority, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock with terms that may not be beneficial to common stockholders and with the ability to adversely affect stockholder voting power and perpetuate the board’s control over our company.
Our Board of Directors by resolution may authorize the issuance of up to 100 million shares of preferred stock in one or more series with such limitations and restrictions as it may determine, in its sole discretion, with no further authorization by security holders required for the issuance of such shares. The Board may determine the specific terms of the preferred stock, including designations; preferences; conversions rights; cumulative, relative; participating; and optional or other rights, including voting rights; qualifications; limitations; or restrictions of the preferred stock.
The issuance of preferred stock may adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of common stock. Preferred stock may be issued quickly with terms calculated to discourage, make more difficult, delay or prevent a change in control of our company or make removal of management more difficult. As a result, the Board of Directors’ ability to issue preferred stock may discourage the potential hostile acquirer, possibly resulting in beneficial negotiations. Negotiating with an unfriendly acquirer may result in terms more favorable to us and our stockholders. Conversely, the issuance of preferred stock may adversely affect the market price of, and the voting and other rights of the holders of the common stock. On August 29, 2021 we issued 300,000 shares of Series A preferred stock to George Sharp, our President, Secretary and Treasurer.
We may, in the future, issue additional shares of common stock, which would reduce investors’ percent of ownership and may dilute our share value.
Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 1,875,000,000 shares of common stock. The future issuance of common stock may result in substantial dilution in the percentage of our common stock held by our then existing stockholders. We may value any common stock issued in the future on an arbitrary basis. The issuance of common stock for future services or acquisitions or other corporate actions may have the effect of diluting the value of the shares held by our investors and might have an adverse effect on any trading market for our common stock.
Because we do not intend to pay any cash dividends on our common stock, our stockholders will not be able to receive a return on their shares unless they sell them.
We intend to retain any future earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Unless we pay dividends, our stockholders will not be able to receive a return on their shares unless they sell them. We cannot assure you that you will be able to sell shares when you desire to do so.
Risks Related to Ownership of Common Stock and Operation as a Public Company.
Our largest stockholder has voting control over all matters submitted to the vote of our stockholders under Nevada law and will preclude other stockholders from influencing management and exercising control over our business.
George Sharp, our custodian and now President of out Company, has voting control through his ownership of Series A preferred stock and common stock. As a result, Mr. Sharp is able to: elect or defeat the election of our directors, amend or prevent amendment to our articles of incorporation or bylaws, effect or prevent a merger, sale of assets or other corporate transaction, and control the outcome of any other matter submitted to the stockholders for vote. Accordingly, other stockholders may be unable to influence management and exercise control over our business.
| 14 |
We will incur increased costs as a result of operating as a public company, and our management will be required to devote substantial time to compliance efforts.
As a public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act and related SEC regulations have created uncertainty for public companies and significantly increased the costs and risks associated with accessing the public markets and public reporting. For example, on January 30, 2009, the SEC adopted rules requiring companies to provide their financial statements in interactive data format using the extensible Business Reporting Language, or XBRL. We are required to comply with these rules. Our management and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time and financial resources to comply with these requirements, as well any new requirements implemented by the SEC. Moreover, these rules and regulations will increase our legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly and could lead to a diversion of management time and attention from revenue generating activities to compliance activities. We are currently unable to estimate these costs with any degree of certainty. These rules and regulations could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our Board of Directors and board committees or as executive officers and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance.
The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) sales practice requirements may also limit your ability to buy and sell our common stock, which could depress the price of our shares.
FINRA has adopted rules that require broker-dealers to have reasonable grounds for believing that an investment is suitable for a customer before recommending that investment to the customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status and investment objectives, among other things. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability such speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. Thus, FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our shares, have an adverse effect on the market for our shares, and thereby depress our share price.
We do not foresee paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future and, as a result, our investors’ sole source of gain, if any, will depend on capital appreciation, if any.
We do not plan to declare or pay any cash dividends on our shares of common stock in the foreseeable future. As a result, investors should not rely on an investment in our securities if they require the investment to produce dividend income. Capital appreciation, if any, of our shares may be investors’ sole source of gain for the foreseeable future. Moreover, investors may not be able to resell their shares of our common stock at or above the price they paid for them.
We cannot assure you that following a business combination with an operating business, our common stock will be listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market or any other securities exchange.
Following a business combination, we may seek the listing of our common stock on NASDAQ, NYSE Amex Equities, the OTC Markets or such other similar exchange. However, we cannot assure you that following such a transaction, we will be able to meet the initial listing standards of those or any other stock exchange, or that we will be able to maintain a listing of our common stock on either of those or any other stock exchange. After completing a business combination, until our common stock is listed on the NASDAQ or another stock exchange, we expect that our common stock would be eligible to trade and/or be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, another over-the-counter quotation system, or on the “pink sheets,” where our stockholders may find it more difficult to dispose of shares or obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our common stock. In addition, we would be subject to an SEC rule that, if it failed to meet the criteria set forth in such rule, imposes various practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell securities governed by the rule to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. Consequently, such rule may deter broker-dealers from recommending or selling our common stock, which may further affect its liquidity. This would also make it more difficult for us to raise additional capital following a business combination.
We may face difficulties or delays in our search for a business combination, and we may not have access to sufficient capital to consummate a business combination.
We may face difficulty identifying a viable business opportunity or negotiating or paying for any resulting business combination. Economic factors that are beyond our control, including the COVID-19 pandemic and consequent economic downturn, as well as increased competition for acquisitions of operating entities that we expect to encounter as a result thereof, may hinder our efforts to locate and/or obtain a business that is suitable for our business goals at a price we can afford and on terms that will enable us to sufficiently grow our business to generate value to our shareholders. We have limited capital, and we may not be able to take advantage of any available business opportunities on favorable terms or at all due to the limited availability of capital. There can be no assurance that we will have sufficient capital to provide us with the necessary funds to successfully develop and implement our plan of operation or acquire a business we deem to be appropriate or necessary to accomplish our objectives, in which case we may be forced to terminate our business plan and your investment in the Company could become worthless.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS.
Not applicable.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
We currently neither rent nor own any real property. We utilize the office space and equipment of its management at no cost. Management estimates such amounts to be immaterial. We currently have no policy with respect to investments or interests in real estate, real estate mortgages or securities of, or interests in, persons primarily engaged in real estate activities.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We received a notice of appeal to the Nevada Supreme Court filed May 17, 2022, by Warwick Calasse. Mr. Calasse is appealing the decision by the District Court of the State of Nevada in and for Clark County (In the Matter of GOFF Corp., Case No. A-20-815182-B) by an Order dated February 22, 2022 to have the 50,000,000 shares of our common stock and 5,000,000 shares of our preferred stock issued to Mr. Calasse canceled on the grounds that there was no value provided by Mr. Calasse to justify their issuance to him. Mr. Calasse filed the notice of appeal following the denial of his motion for reconsideration by the District Court of the State of Nevada in and for Clark County. Mr. Calasse filed his opening brief on July 26, 2023. We filed our answering brief on September 7, 2023.
We filed an Amended Complaint against Warwick Calasse in the in the District Court for Clark County, Nevada (Case No.: A-22-858709-B) on September 29, 2022, seeking compensatory and punitive damages on behalf of the Company against Mr. Calasse and alleging that he breached the Consulting Agreement he claims to have entered with the Company and that he breached the fiduciary duties he owed to the Company.” Discovery has just commenced in this action. The Court has not yet entered a scheduling order.
ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES
Not applicable.
PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
Market Information
Our common stock is not listed on any securities exchange and is quoted on the OTC Pink Market under the symbol “WNFT.” Only a sporadic and highly limited market exists for our securities. There is no assurance that a regular trading market will develop, or if developed, that it will be sustained. Therefore, a shareholder in all likelihood will be unable to resell his securities in our company. Furthermore, it is unlikely that a lending institution will accept our securities as pledged collateral for loans unless a regular trading market develops.
The following table reflects the high and low closing sales information for our common stock for each fiscal quarter during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2023, and June 30, 2022. This information was obtained from OTC Pink and reflects inter-dealer prices without retail mark-up, mark-down, or commission and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULT OF OPERATIONS
Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Corporate Information
We were incorporated on July 12, 2010, under the laws of the State of Nevada under the name Goff Corp. We were never able to raise sufficient capital to engage in the business of providing web-based services to connect employers in and individuals seeking employment in the UK and Ireland. On February 26, 2013, our two founding officers and directors resigned and were replaced by Warwick Calasse who assumed the title of President, CEO, CFO, Secretary, Treasurer and sole member of our Board of Directors. We disclosed that on January 1, 2013 that we had entered into an Assignment Agreement with dated January 21, 2013 between Golden Glory Panama, as assignee, and Sertesaz Ltd. and C&ENER SA, the Colombian owners that owned 60% and 40% of the concession in return for shares of our common stock and cash payments through March 7, 2016 of over $3,000.000 comprised of payments for the option to purchase 100% of the mining concessions and mining development expenditures.
On May 26, 2021, George Sharp was appointed as our Custodian by Order Granting Motion to (1) Intervene, (2) Remove Custodian, (3) Appoint George Sharp as Custodian, and (4) for Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary Injunction on Order Shortening Time, Case No A-20-815182-B, Dept. No. XVI issued by the District Court of the State of Nevada in and for Clark County (the “Court Order”). Under his authority as Custodian, George Sharp appointed himself as the sole member of the Board and President, Secretary and Treasurer of the Company by resolutions of the registrant’s Board of Directors on May 26, 2021.
There had been no common or preferred stock transactions since 2013 until August 29, 2021 when the Company issued 300,000 shares of the authorized “blank check” preferred stock to George Sharp with 30,000 common votes for each share of preferred stock.
On January 19, 2022, the Company registered with the Secretary of State in Nevada to change their name to Worldwide NFT Inc. FINRA approved the name change, and a forward 3 for 1 stock split of the common shares on June 29, 2022. All common shares have been restated retroactively in accordance with SAB Topic 4C.
The preferred shares convert to common at a ratio of 1 share of preferred stock converting to 90 shares of common stock.
On November 23, 2021, our Form 10 became effective, and the Company became a reporting company.
The Company is in process of identifying potential acquisition targets. There have been no definitive agreements executed as of the date of this report.
Our principal executive offices are located at 3535 Executive Terminal Drive, Henderson, NV 89052, and our telephone number is (702)-840-4433.
The Company’s accounting year end is June 30.
Our principal business objective for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with a business rather than immediate, short-term earnings. We will not restrict its potential candidate target companies to any specific business, industry or geographical location and, thus, may acquire any type of business or be acquired should such a reasonable opportunity arise.

Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes. These estimates and assumptions have a significant impact on our financial statements. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Critical accounting policies are those that require the most subjective and complex judgments, often employing the use of estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 1 to the Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. However, we do not believe that there are any alternative methods of accounting for our operations that would have a material effect on our financial statements.
Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act
The COVID-19 pandemic has not had a material impact on the Company, particularly due to our lack of operations. The pandemic may, however, have an impact on our ability to develop business. For example, our efforts will be threatened by government shutdowns, supply and labor issues and resulting economic downturns which the pandemic has historically caused. While vaccinations beginning in 2021 allowed for the partial reopening of the economy, the recent “Omicron” variant of the virus, as well as reduced efficacy of vaccines over time and the possibility that a large number of people decline to get vaccinated or receive booster shots, creates inherent uncertainty as to the future of our business, the industries in which we operate and plan to operate and the economy in general in light of the pandemic.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of the date of this Report, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
Going Concern
The independent registered public accounting firm auditors’ report accompanying our June 30, 2023 financial statements contained an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements have been prepared “assuming that we will continue as a going concern,” which contemplates that we will realize our assets and satisfy our liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.
Results of Operations
We expect that our operating revenues, cost of revenues and operating expenses will greatly increase in the next fiscal year when we identify a potential acquisition target. Currently we only have nominal operating expenses to run the company and report to the Securities and Exchange Commission. We have identified ourselves as a shell company until such time a suitable business can be acquired, and we sustain operations.
For the Years Ended June 30, 2023 and 2022
In the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we incurred professional fees of $97,605 and $20,060,882, respectively. In 2022, $19,930,300 of the professional fees were the result of shares issued to our CEO, which is a non-cash expense. These costs mostly relate to the filing of the required Securities and Exchange reports as well as costs to bring current the Company with required state regulatory filings.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company in May 2021 was recently revived by the State of Nevada. The Company had no operations for a period of five years prior to that when they filed a Form 15.
On May 26, 2021, George Sharp was appointed as our Custodian by Order Granting Motion to (1) Intervene, (2) Remove Custodian, (3) Appoint George Sharp as Custodian, and (4) for Temporary Restraining Order and Preliminary Injunction on Order Shortening Time, Case No A-20-815182-B, Dept. No. XVI issued by the District Court of the State of Nevada in and for Clark County (the “Court Order”). Under his authority as Custodian, George Sharp appointed himself as the sole member of the Board and President, Secretary and Treasurer of the Company by resolutions of the registrant’s Board of Directors on May 26, 2021.
| 18 |
Since May 26, 2021, the Company has completed Securities and Exchange Commission filings to become a fully reporting company. They have brought current state regulatory filings to be compliant in the State of Nevada. The Company has commenced the process to identify suitable acquisition targets. The current operating expenses incurred have been to get to this point. Future operating expenses will be largely funded by George Sharp until such time as the Company can raise the necessary funding to acquire a business and provide necessary working capital to pay for the operating expenses of the Company.
As of June 30, 2023, we had an accumulated deficit of $20,941,817 and a working capital deficit of $274,767. Our independent registered public accounting firm has provided a going concern opinion on our most recent audited financial statements as of June 30, 2023.
In the future, we will need to consummate one or more capital raising transactions, including potential debt or equity issuances, and/or generate material revenue from an acquired business or businesses to fund our operations. We may also issue shares of common stock, stock options or other securities to compensate our employees or independent contractors.
Net Cash used by Operating Activities:
We reported negative cash flow from operations related to our continuing operations for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 in the amount of $0 and $(50,000), respectively. It is anticipated that we will continue to report negative operating cash flow in future periods. In 2022, the net loss was offset by the non-cash charge for the shares issued to our CEO.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities:
We had no investing activities for the years ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities:
For the year ended June 30, 2022, the only cash flows from financing activities related to the proceeds from the CEO related to the purchase of preferred shares. There were no financing activities in the year ended June 30, 2023.
Based upon our current operations, we will need additional working capital to fund our operations over the next 12 months. Further, if we are able to close a reverse merger, asset purchase or similar transaction to acquire an operating business, it is likely we will need additional capital, including potentially as a condition of closing the acquisition. Because of the inherent uncertainties of the Company at this stage, we cannot be certain as to how much capital we need, if and how we can raise capital or the type or quantity of securities we will be required to issue to do so. In connection with a business combination, we may issue a significant number our shares of our common stock or securities convertible or exercisable into our common stock to the target’s shareholders which will be dilutive to our shareholders.
We anticipate that we will incur operating losses during the next 12 months. Our ability to develop and implement our business plan will be subject to a number of risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of development. Such risks for us include, but are not limited to, an evolving and unpredictable business model; recognition of revenue sources; and the management of growth.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the shareholders and the board of directors of Worldwide NFT Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Worldwide NFT Inc. as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended, 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 June 30, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Substantial Doubt about 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 5 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a significant accumulated deficit. In addition, the Company continues to experience negative cash flows from operations. 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 5. 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 audit. 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 audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit 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 audit 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 audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTE 2- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
These consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars and have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The Company believes that these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company as well as their wholly owned subsidiary, Golden Glory Resources, Inc. All inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company has incurred additional expenses up through the period ended June 30, 2023 that either have been paid by George Sharp or will be paid by George Sharp. Those advances are included in this account and are non-interest bearing.
NOTE 5 – GOING CONCERN
The Company concluded that due to the change in management and revival of the entity, these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the date the financial statements are issued.
Management intends to identify potential merger candidates to provide operating revenues and profitability. Our ability to effectively identify, develop and implement a viable plan for our business may be hindered by risks and uncertainties which are beyond our control, including without limitation, the continued negative effects of the coronavirus pandemic on the U.S. and global economies. Even though management believes this plan will allow the Company to continue as a going concern, there are no guarantees to the successful execution of this plan.
These financial statements of the Company have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business over a reasonable period of time.
Impact of COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic has not had a material impact on the Company, particularly due to our lack of operations.
NOTE 6 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company received a notice of appeal to the Nevada Supreme Court filed May 17, 2022 by Warwick Calasse. Mr. Calasse is appealing the decision by the District Court of the State of Nevada in and for Clark County (In the Matter of GOFF Corp., Case No. A-20-815182-B) by an Order dated February 22, 2022 to have the shares of the Company’s common stock and shares of its preferred stock issued to Mr. Calasse canceled on the grounds that there was no value provided by Mr. Calasse to justify their issuance to him. The Company did not expect any decision until November 2022 at the earliest.
The Company filed an Amended Complaint against Warwick Calasse in the in the District Court for Clark County, Nevada (Case No.: A-22-858709-B) on September 29, 2022 seeking compensatory and punitive damages on behalf of the Company against Mr. Calasse and alleging that he breached the Consulting Agreement he claims to have entered with the Company and that he breached the fiduciary duties he owed to the Company.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
Not applicable
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that is designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
| ● | pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; | |
| ● | provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and | |
| ● | provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. |
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the parameters set forth above and has concluded that as of June 30, 2022, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles as a result of the following material weaknesses:
| ● | The Company does not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions due to only having one officer and limited resources. | |
| ● | The Company does not have an independent board of directors or an audit committee. | |
| ● | The Company does not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. | |
| ● | All of the Company’s financial reporting is carried out by a financial consultant. |
We plan to rectify these weaknesses by implementing an independent board of directors, establishing written policies and procedures for our internal control of financial reporting, and hiring additional accounting personnel at such time as we complete a reverse merger or similar business acquisition.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
There have been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the year June 30, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION.
None.
PART III
ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE.
The following table sets forth the names and positions of our executive officers and directors. Directors will be elected at our annual meeting of stockholders and serve for one year or until their successors are elected and qualify. Officers are elected by the Board and their terms of office are, except to the extent governed by employment contract, at the discretion of the Board.
| Name | Age | Position | ||||
| George Sharp | 62 | President and Director | ||||
Set forth below is a brief description of the background and business experience of our executive officer and director for the past five years.
| 27 |
George Sharp, President and Director
George Sharp, 62 years old, has, for the past 17 years, served as a consultant to companies in a variety of contexts, including software development, assisting public companies with growth and regulatory compliance plans. Mr. Sharp is a well-known whistleblower and shareholder advocate, fighting against microcap fraud. He has exposed dubious activities involving various issuers to the public and regulatory bodies for the last 12 years. In June 2017, Mr. Sharp was engaged as a consultant by OTC Markets Group, Inc. to develop compliance processes to bring more timely and actionable data to the OTC market.
Family Relationships
There are no family relationships among any of our officers or directors.
Election of Directors and Officers
Directors are elected to serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors have been elected and qualified. Officers are appointed to serve until the meeting of the Board following the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors have been elected and qualified.
Audit Committee
We do not have any committees of the Board as we only have one director.
Director Independence
We do not currently have any independent directors. We evaluate independence by the standards for director independence established by Marketplace Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires that executive officers, directors and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities to file reports of ownership and changes of ownership with the SEC within specified due dates. These persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all such reports they file. In light of the lack of periodic reports being filed by prior management of the Company we are not aware of whether all of our executive officers, directors and 10% stockholders timely filed all required reports under Section 16(a) in a timely manner with respect to our fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.
Corporate Governance
Due to its size, at this time the Company does not have a nominating nor audit committee of the board of directors. The board of Directors consists of two directors. The Company receives no revenues. At such time that the Company has a larger board of directors and generates revenue, the Company will propose creating committees of its board of directors, including both a nominating and an audit committee. Accordingly, the Company does not have an audit committee financial expert.
Compensation of Directors
Directors are permitted to receive fixed fees and other compensation for their services as directors. The Board of Directors has the authority to fix the compensation of directors. No amounts have been paid to, or accrued to, directors in such capacity.
ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
No officer or director has received any cash compensation from the Company since the inception of the Company; however, George Sharp received on August 29, 2021 300,000 shares of the authorized “blank check” preferred stock with 10,000 votes for each share of preferred stock to give voting control of the Company to Mr. Sharp. Until we acquire additional capital, it is not anticipated that any officer or director will receive compensation from us, other than reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses incurred on behalf of the Company. Our officers and directors intend to devote limited time to our affairs. We did not pay any compensation to our Chief Executive Officers (the “Named Executive Officers”) during the last two fiscal years.
We have no stock option, retirement, pension, or profit-sharing programs for the benefit of directors, officers or other employees, but the Board of Directors may recommend adoption of one or more such programs in the future.
There are no understandings or agreements regarding compensation our management will receive after a business combination that is required to be disclosed.
We do not have a standing compensation committee or a committee performing similar functions, since the Board of Directors has determined not to compensate the officers and directors until such time that we complete a reverse merger or business combination.
Named Executive Officer Employment Agreements
None.
| 28 |
Termination Provisions
As of the date of this Report, we have no contract, agreement, plan, or arrangement, whether written or unwritten, that provides for payments to a Named Executive Officer at, following, or in connection with any termination, including without limitation resignation, severance, retirement or a constructive termination of a Named Executive Officer, or a change in control of the Company or a change in the Named Executive Officer’s responsibilities, with respect to each Named Executive Officer.
Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End
As of June 30, 2023, none of our Named Executive Officers held any unexercised options, stock that have not vested, or other equity incentive plan awards.
Director Compensation
To date, we have not paid our director any compensation for services on our Board.
Equity Compensation Plan Information
No equity compensation plan or agreements under which our common stock is authorized for issuance has been adopted during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.
ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
