SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of the Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which management believes are necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. They should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements reported in the latest Form 10-K filed for the year ended April 30, 2024. The results of operations of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. The fiscal year end is April 30.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Estimates also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual events and results could materially differ from those assumptions and estimates. 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

There were no cash equivalents at July 31, 2024 and April 30, 2024. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash deposits. Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000. As of July 31, 2024, the Company had $0 in excess of the FDIC insured limit. 

Research and Development Expenses

Expenditures for research and development are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred research and development expenses of $4,103 for the three month period ended July 31, 2024 and $0 for the three month period ended July 31, 2023, which is included in operating expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”) and all the related amendments.

The core principle of ASC 606 requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, it is possible more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than required under GAAP, including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation.

The Company recognizes revenue from its services agreement to provide consulting services with respect to ammunition and military equipment to Free Falcon Limited to providers after it has provided the services required under the services agreement. The Company does not break out its cost of sales related to its services revenue.

Licensing Revenue

The Company recognizes licensing revenue under ASC 606-10-55-59. In order to determine whether the Company’s promise to provide a right to access or to use its intellectual property, the Company should consider the nature of the intellectual property to which the customer will have rights. Intellectual property is either:

a. Functional intellectual property. Intellectual property that has significant standalone functionality (for example, the ability to process a transaction, perform a function or task, or be played or aired). Functional intellectual property derives a substantial portion of its utility (that is, its ability to provide benefit or value) from its significant standalone functionality.

b. Symbolic intellectual property. Intellectual property that is not functional intellectual property (that is, intellectual property that does not have significant standalone functionality). Because symbolic intellectual property does not have significant standalone functionality, substantially all of the utility of symbolic intellectual property is derived from its association with the entity’s past or ongoing activities, including its ordinary business activities.

Intellectual property that has significant standalone functionality is functional IP.  Functional IP is a right to use IP because the IP has standalone functionality and the customer can use the IP as it exists at a point in time.  

Basic Loss per Share

The Company has adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 260-10, which provides for the calculation of “basic” and “diluted” earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity.

The potentially dilutive common stock equivalents for the years ended July 31, 2024 and 2023 were excluded from the dilutive loss per share calculation as they would be antidilutive due to the net loss. As of July 31, 2024 and 2023, there were approximately 35,536,302 and 16,322,590 shares of common stock underlying our outstanding convertible notes payable and warrants, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts payable, short term loans, and the Company’s related party convertible loan from a shareholder approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are recorded at historical cost. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Gains and losses upon disposition are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations in the period of disposition. Maintenance and repair expenditures are charged to expense as incurred. Currently the Company’s only assets are three diving vessels and a magnetometer. They are being depreciated over three to twelve year useful lives.

Impairment of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the book value of the asset may not be recoverable. The Company periodically evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate possible impairment. When impairment indicators exist, the Company uses market quotes, if available or an estimate of the future undiscounted net cash flows of the related asset or asset group over the remaining life in measuring whether or not the asset values are recoverable. Identified intangible assets are reviewed for impairment at least annually, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. During the three month period ended July 31, 2024 the Company’s Management determined that two of its vessels were impaired and the Company wrote down the value of both of the vessels to $0, a total of $22,340 net of depreciation.

Stock Based Compensation to Employees and Service Providers

The Company recognizes all share-based payments to employees and service providers, including grants of employee stock options, as compensation expense in the consolidated financial statements based on their fair values. That expense will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period) or immediately if the share-based payments vest immediately.

Convertible Debentures

The Company adheres to the guidance in Accounting Standards Updated (“ASU”) 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. ASU 2020-06 simplifies an issuer’s accounting for convertible instruments and its application of the derivatives scope exception for contracts in its own equity. Additionally, ASU 2020-06 removes the requirements for accounting for beneficial conversion features.

Customer Deposits

Customer deposits are an amount paid by a customer prior to the Company providing it with goods or services. The Company has an obligation to provide the goods or services to the customer or to return the money. The Company had $8,700 in customer deposits as of July 31, 2024 and 2023.

Leases

The Company accounts for leases under ASU 2016-02. At the inception of a contract the Company assesses whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. The Company’s assessment is based on: (1) whether the contract involves the use of a distinct identified asset, (2) whether the Company obtains the right to substantially all the economic benefit from the use of the asset throughout the period, and (3) whether it has the right to direct the use of the asset. The Company will allocate the consideration in the contract to each lease component based on its relative stand-alone price to determine the lease payments.

Operating lease right of use (“ROU”) assets represents the right to use the leased asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the adoption date in determining the present value of future payments. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is presented in operating expenses on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Finance leases are recorded as a finance lease liability and property, plant and equipment asset, based on the present value of lease payments. The asset is depreciated, and the liability is amortized with interest expense incurred over the life of the lease.

As permitted under the new guidance, the Company has made an accounting policy election not to apply the recognition provisions of the guidance to short term leases (leases with a lease term of twelve months or less that do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise); instead, the Company will recognize the lease payments for short term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Segment Information

During the three month period ended July 31, 2024, NAPC Defense, Inc. began operations for its defense related business including generating revenue and incurring expenses. The defense related business has no relation to the Company’s shipwreck exploration and recovery operations other than common ownership. As such, the Company concluded that the operations of the defense business and the shipwreck business were separate reportable segments as of the three month period ended July 31, 2024. (see Note 10 – Segment Information).

Income Taxes

Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

All other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.
