RISK FACTORS

 

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider each of the following risks, together with all other information set forth in this Offering Circular, including the financial statements and the related notes, before making a decision to buy our common stock. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business could be harmed. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

 

Risks Related to Our Digital Marketing Operations

 

Small company in the start-up phase.

 

We are a start-up company in the initial phases of operation. This provides risk as we continue to grow and implement our business plan. Being that we are a startup company, we have limited business operations. Our growth and ability to sustain business expenses will greatly depend on our ability to raise additional capital.

 

Adverse economic or other conditions in the markets in which we do business could negatively affect our sales and retention rates and therefore our operating results.

 

Our operating results are dependent upon our ability to maximize the strengths in our marketing plan and we rely on being able to expand our restaurants to other areas. Adverse economic or other conditions in the markets in which we operate may lower our revenue and make it difficult to continue operations.

 

We face competition, which may impede our ability to open future locations or may increase the cost of expansion.

 

We compete with many other entities engaged in quick service restaurant businesses. While we believe we have a unique product that will provide a competitive advantage, we are competing with other restaurants that could be better funded and more well-known than Fast Casual Concepts, Inc.

 

Risks associated with officers and directors’ ability to independently control the operations of the Company.

 

Due to the share structure and the fact that we are in the start-up phase of the Company, the current officers and directors independently control the operations of the Company including but not limited to election of other directors, approval of significant corporate transactions and ability to issue additional shares.

 

Adverse economic or other conditions in the markets in which we do business could negatively affect our revenues and therefore our operating results.

 

Our operating results are dependent upon our ability to provide a quality dining experience. Adverse economic or other conditions in the markets in which we operate may lower our ability to continue to grow. If we fail to generate revenues sufficient to meet our cash requirements, including operating and other expenses, debt service and capital expenditures, our net income, cash flow, financial condition, and the trading price of our securities could be adversely affected.

 

We will depend upon our staff to maintain a high level of customer satisfaction, and any difficulties we encounter in hiring, training and maintaining skilled personnel may harm our operating performance.

 

We have an experienced staff that has substantial experience. However, we do depend on a high level of customer satisfaction to continue growing our business and as we grow it will be necessary to hire and develop employees that have an extremely high desire to provide excellent customer service. If our staff is unable to provide the level of service we expect it could negatively impact our operating performance.

 

2 

 

 

Increases in taxes and regulatory compliance costs may reduce our income.

 

Increases in the taxes in general may reduce our net income, cash flow, financial condition, ability to pay or refinance our debt obligations, and the trading price of our securities. Similarly, changes in laws increasing the potential liability for operating conditions may result in significant unanticipated expenditures, which could similarly adversely affect our business and results of operations.

 

Risks Related to the Industry

 

The industry has large companies that have acquired a large share of the market

 

Our ability to succeed will depend on our ability to compete with large companies with more financing and easier access to necessary expansion capital. Capturing portions of the market from these large companies will be integral in accomplishing our business plan and growing our business.

 

Current risks in the industry include the Coronavirus Pandemic.

 

Our ability to continue operations through the ongoing restrictions on businesses due to the Coronavirus Pandemic could affect our profitability in the future. Changes to our dine-in options could be affected for a longer period of time then is now expected and could have a negative effect on our business.

 

Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock

 

Our common stock may be volatile or may decline regardless of our operating performance, and you may not be able to resell your shares at or above the public offering price.

 

The market price for our common stock is volatile and the trading in our common stock is limited and sporadic. In addition, the market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, most of which we cannot control, including:

 

  Unplanned delays in acquiring new business;
  Stock price performance of our competitors;
  Default on our indebtedness;
  Actions by our competitors;
  Changes in senior management or key personnel;
  Incurrence of indebtedness or issuances of capital stock; and
  Economic, legal and regulatory factors unrelated to our performance.

 

In addition, stock markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have affected and continue to affect the market prices of equity securities of many companies in our industry. In the past, stockholders have instituted securities class action litigation following periods of market volatility. If we were involved in securities litigation, we could incur substantial costs and our resources and the attention of management could be diverted from our business.

 

Substantial future sales of our common stock, or the perception in the public markets that these sales may occur, may depress our stock price.

 

Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market after this offering, or the perception that these sales could occur, could adversely affect the price of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional shares. The shares of common stock offered in this offering will become freely tradable without restriction under the Securities Act.

 

3 

 

 

We will continue to incur certain costs as a result of conducting a Tier 2 offering under Regulation A and in the administration of our organizational structure.

 

After the offering, we may incur higher legal, accounting, insurance and other expenses than at the level that we are currently experiencing. We also have incurred and will continue to incur costs associated with conducting a Tier 2 offering under Regulation A and related rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Despite the on-going reporting requirements from conducting such an offering, the Company will not be “public” once this offering circular is qualified or subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We will continue to incur ongoing periodic expenses in connection with the administration of our organizational structure. The expenses incurred by companies for reporting requirements required by Regulation A have been increasing. We expect these rules and regulations to increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time-consuming and costly, although we are currently unable to estimate these costs with any degree of certainty. These laws and regulations could also make it more difficult or costly for us to obtain certain types of insurance, including director and officer liability insurance, and we may be forced to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. These laws and regulations could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our Board of Directors, our board committees or as our executive officers. Furthermore, if we are unable to satisfy our obligations as a Company required to follow Regulation A Tier 2 filing requirements, we could be subject to penalties, fines, sanctions and other regulatory action and potentially civil litigation.

 

This is a fixed price offering and the fixed offering price may not accurately represent the current value of us or our assets at any particular time. Therefore, the purchase price you pay for our shares may not be supported by the value of our assets at the time of your purchase.

 

This is a fixed price offering, which means that the offering price for our shares is fixed and will not vary based on the underlying value of our assets at any time. Our Board of Directors has determined the offering price in its sole discretion without the input of an investment bank or other third party. The fixed offering price for our shares has not been based on appraisals of any assets we own or may own, or of our Company as a whole, nor do we intend to obtain such appraisals. Therefore, the fixed offering price established for our shares may not be supported by the current value of our Company or our assets at any particular time.

 

We do not currently pay any cash dividends.

 

As we grow our Company and become a successful Company, we expect to be in position to generate earnings and cash flow that will enable us to begin paying dividends, however, the projected timing of reaching that point is presently uncertain. Any determination to pay dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon results of operations, financial condition, contractual restrictions, restrictions imposed by applicable law and other factors our Board of Directors deems relevant. Our ability to pay dividends may also be restricted by the terms of any future credit agreement or any future debt or preferred equity securities of ours or of our subsidiaries. Accordingly, if you purchase shares in this offering, realization of a gain on your investment will depend on the appreciation of the price of our common stock, which may never occur. Investors seeking cash dividends in the foreseeable future should not purchase our common stock.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

We make forward-looking statements under the “Summary,” “Risk Factors,” “Business,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and in other sections of this Offering Circular. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “may,” “might,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential” or “continue,” and the negative of these terms and other comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements, which are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us, may include projections of our future financial performance based on our growth strategies and anticipated trends in our business. These statements are only predictions based on our current expectations and projections about future events. There are important factors that could cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from the results, level of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. In particular, you should consider the numerous risks and uncertainties described under “Risk Factors.”

 

While we believe we have identified material risks, these risks and uncertainties are not exhaustive. Other sections of this Offering Circular describe additional factors that could adversely impact our business and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all risks and uncertainties, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

 

Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, level of activity, performance or achievements. Moreover, neither we nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any of these forward-looking statements. You should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. We are under no duty to update any of these forward-looking statements after the date of this Offering Circular to conform our prior statements to actual results or revised expectations, and we do not intend to do so.

 

Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about:

 

  our business’ strategies and investment policies;

 

  our business’ financing plans and the availability of capital;

 

  potential growth opportunities available to our business;

 

  the risks associated with potential acquisitions by us;

 

  the recruitment and retention of our officers and employees;

 

  our expected levels of compensation;

 

  the effects of competition on our business; and

 

  the impact of future legislation and regulatory changes on our business.

 

We caution you not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Offering Circular.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

Pricing of the Offering

 

Prior to this offering, there have been no sales of any shares to the public. The public offering price of the shares in this offering has been determined by our Board of Directors without the assistance of an investment bank or other third party. Among the factors considered in determining the public offering price of the shares, in addition to the prevailing market conditions, are estimates of our business potential and earnings prospects, an assessment of our management and the consideration of the other factors in relation to market valuation of companies in related businesses.

 

We may sell or issue the securities offered by this offering from time to time in any one or more of the following ways:

 

  via crowdfunding through one or more regulatory-compliant websites;
  through solicitation from employees of the Company;
  directly to purchasers or a single purchaser; or
  through a combination of any of these methods.

 

Solicitation from the Company will be conducted by officers, directors and/or employees of the Company via in-person, telephone, text and/or email.

 

There will be no commissions paid for the distribution of securities to third parties or brokers. In the event we decide in the future to employ such third parties or brokers, we will amend the offering circular accordingly to disclose such arrangements.

 

Investment Limitations

 

Generally, no sale may be made to you in this offering if the aggregate purchase price you pay is more than 10% of the greater of your annual income or net worth. Different rules apply to accredited investors and non-natural persons. Before making any representation that your investment does not exceed applicable thresholds, we encourage you to review Rule 251(d)(2)(i)(C) of Regulation A. For general information on investing, we encourage you to refer to www.investor.gov.

 

As a Tier 2, Regulation A offering, investors must comply with the 10% limitation to investment in the offering. The only investor in this offering exempt from this limitation is an accredited investor, an “Accredited Investor,” as defined under Rule 501 of Regulation D. If you meet one of the following tests you should qualify as an Accredited Investor:

 

(1) You are a natural person who has had individual income in excess of $200,000 in each of the two most recent years, or joint income with your spouse in excess of $300,000 in each of these years, and have a reasonable expectation of reaching the same income level in the current year;

 

(2) You are a natural person and your individual net worth, or joint net worth with your spouse, exceeds $1,000,000 at the time you purchase shares in this offering (please see below on how to calculate your net worth);

 

(3) You are an organization described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, a corporation, a Massachusetts or similar business trust or a partnership, not formed for the specific purpose of acquiring the shares in this offering, with total assets in excess of $5,000,000;

 

(4) You are an entity (including an Individual Retirement Account trust) in which each equity owner is an accredited investor; or

 

8 

 

 

(5) You are a trust with total assets in excess of $5,000,000, your purchase of shares in this offering is directed by a person who either alone or with his purchaser representative(s) (as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that he is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective investment, and you were not formed for the specific purpose of investing in the shares in this offering ; Under Rule 251 of Regulation A, non-accredited, non-natural investors are subject to the investment limitation and may only invest funds which do not exceed 10% of the greater of the purchaser’s revenue or net assets (as of the purchaser’s most recent fiscal year end). A non-accredited, natural person may only invest funds which do not exceed 10% of the greater of the purchaser’s annual income or net worth (please see below on how to calculate your net worth).

 

Net Worth Calculation

 

Your net worth is defined as the difference between your total assets and total liabilities. This calculation must exclude the value of your primary residence and may exclude any indebtedness secured by your primary residence (up to an amount equal to the value of your primary residence). In the case of fiduciary accounts, net worth and/or income suitability requirements may be satisfied by the beneficiary of the account or by the fiduciary, if the fiduciary directly or indirectly provides funds for the purchase of the shares in the offering.

 

In order to purchase shares in this offering and prior to the acceptance of any funds from an investor, an investor will be required to represent, to the Company’s satisfaction, that he or she is either an accredited investor or is in compliance with the 10% of net worth or annual income limitation on investment in this offering.

 

9 

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

 

We intend to use the net proceeds of this offering as follows:

 

  Increase marketing and brand awareness. (this will be achieved through hiring qualified sales and marketing agents to increase the visibility of the Company) This is expected to use approximately 30% of the funds raised.

 

  Expansion and new locations that will allow us to increase our market share and ultimately become more profitable. This is expected to use approximately 60%

 

  Remaining funds of approximately 10% will be used for general operating expenses and potential investment opportunities to allow the formation of strategic partnerships or for Company acquisitions.

 

  If all of the securities being qualified in this offering statement are not sold, it will not materially affect the use of proceeds as described above—the stated uses would receive less aggregate funding, but the allocations would remain substantially similar.

 

DIVIDEND POLICY

 

As we become fully operational, we could be in a position to generate earnings and cash flow that will enable us to begin paying dividends on our Common Stock, however, the projected timing of reaching that point is presently uncertain. The decision to pay a dividend remains within the discretion of our Board of Directors and may be affected by various factors, including our earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, level of indebtedness and other considerations our Board of Directors deems relevant. Future credit facilities, other future debt obligations and statutory provisions, may limit, or in some cases prohibit, our ability to pay dividends.

  Holy Cow Burgers and Ice Cream

 

  Independent Taco

 

  Third Eye Pies

 

This business plan was prepared to obtain financing for the initial launch of the Company.. A unique, mid-scale, innovative environment is required to provide customers with an atmosphere that they will enjoy as much as the food. Some of the financing obtained through this offering will be used for property leasing, equipment purchases, and to cover expenses of operation. Additional financing will be required to open subsequent restaurants and prepare for franchising.

 

Although the concept of fast casual originated in the United States in the 1990’s, it did not become mainstream until late 2000’s/early 2010’s. During the economic recession that began in 2007, the category of fast casual dining saw increased sales to the 18 – 34-year-old demographic. This demographic group has limited disposable spending for meals, so they tend to choose fast casual since it is perceived as healthier. A fast casual restaurant offers higher quality food than fast food restaurants, with fewer frozen or processed ingredients, but it does not provide full table service. It is an intermediate concept between fast food and casual dining, and usually priced accordingly.

 

Fast casual restaurants meet the following criteria:

 

  1. Limited-service or self-service format

 

  2. Average meal price between $8 and $15

 

  3. Made-to-order food with more complex flavors than fast food restaurants

 

  4. Upscale, unique or highly developed décor

 

  5. Most often will not have a drive thru

 

Fast Casual Concepts opened Company-owned restaurants to validate performance, before offering franchise opportunities to qualified buyers. The four restaurants are an answer to the increasing dining demand of millennials. They (1) want value for everything that they purchase, (2) will not accept anything that does not meet their expectations, and (3) want a pleasant dining experience in a socially comfortable environment. The three food sectors: burgers, tacos, and pizza are cuisines that millennials want to eat, and Fast Casual Concepts will operate the restaurants they want to patronize.

 

In today’s highly competitive environment, it is becoming increasingly more difficult to differentiate one restaurant concept from another. Fast Casual Concepts will do this by offering entrees made with fresh ingredients. The food will be prepared daily on the premises and seasoned to perfection. The grills and ovens in our restaurants will be out in the open and loaded with burgers, taco meat, and pizzas. With our high-quality, streamlined menu, diners will receive their food quickly and piping hot. We believe that fresh ingredients produce the high-quality products that today’s health-conscious consumer’s desire.

 

This business plan presents our vision and strategic plan to offer fast casual dining to our target market segments—the 18 – 34-year old and position the brand for successful franchising in the future. This plan includes the restaurants, market strategy, investment requirements, financial forecasts, management team, and franchisee recruitment.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto of the Company, as well as the financial statements and the notes theretoincluded in this Offering Circular. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. See “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” above.

 

Results of Operations of the Company Ending December 31, 2020

 

The Company has initiated our business plan and with the sole focus of Fast Casual Concepts on establishing a presence in the market with multiple different restaurants. We expect revenues to continue to increase throughout the fiscal year. Significant expenses during the period included $356,849 in general and administrative expenses, $409,933 in Compensation expense and $508,950 in cost of sales. We realized a net loss of $511,580 during the period.

 

Planned Sources of Revenues and Additional Expenses

 

Fast Casual Concepts will control growth during our start-up phase by systemically opening restaurants based on our defined timeline. The initial restaurants will be within a short distance of each other (one-hour drive). Our growth will come from franchisees who will own and operate restaurants. The Franchise Model will be our future, long-term business growth.

 

Additional expenses will accrue with the increase of locations and with the franchise business model. The increase in expenses will be dictated by the growth of the Company and will be directly tied to additional revenue.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Company

 

As previously noted, we are a development stage Company and our ability to succeed in the market will greatly depend on our ability to secure investment funding through the sale of securities. We intend to use proceeds of the sale of securities to increase our market presence through advertising and hiring key staff members that will assist us in growing our presence. If we are only able to raise a portion of the proceeds of this offering, we will use that portion of proceeds according to the same strategy but on a slower growth curve. At the period end the Company had no cash on hand and $30,422 in inventory. Revenues are expected to increase this year through growth and additional locations being opened. Sources of future liquidity will greatly depend on our ability to secure investment funding through the sale of securities. We intend to raise the funds necessary through security sales and not undertake loans. If needed we are able to secure loans from private individuals as well as banking institutions. We currently have no additional capital commitments.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The financial statements presented are those of Fast Casual Concepts, Inc. (“Fast Casual”, or the “Company”). Fast Casual was originally incorporated on March 23, 2019, under the laws of the State of Pennsylvania (PA). On April 13, 2020, the Company re-domiciled in the state of Wyoming, increasing its authorized number common shares available to be issued to 750,000,000 and effectuating a 10-for-1 forward-split of its common stock.

 

Fast Casual was incorporated to develop, build, operate and franchise casual eating establishments under brand names such as Holy Cow, Independent Taco and Third Eye Pies. Fast Casual has four open stores, the Holy Cow, in Slippery Rock, PA, the Third Eye Pies in Butler, PA and an Independent Taco and a Third Eye Pies both in Mercer, PA. Additionally, the Company currently has one store under construction, a Third Eye Pies in Washington.

Basis of Presentation

 

The Financial Statements and related disclosures have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) of the United States. Fast Casual has elected a calendar year-end. On April 13, 2020, the Company effectuated a 10-for-1 forward-split of its common stock. All share and earnings per share information have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split and the incremental par value of the newly issued shares was recorded with the offset to additional paid-in capital.

 

Cash Equivalents

 

Fast Casual considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition Policy

 

Fast Casual recognizes revenue in accordance with the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Series Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue From Contracts With Customers (“ASC 606”), which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation, and disclosure of revenue in financial statements. ASC 606 outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies. In general, the Company recognizes revenue based on the allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation as each performance obligation in a contract is satisfied.

 

Food and beverage sales, as presented in our statement of operations, represents food and beverage product sold and is presented net of discounts, coupons, employee meals and complimentary meals. Revenue from restaurant sales is recognized when food and beverage products are sold and product is delivered to the customer. Revenue is presented net of sales tax. Sales taxes collected from customers are included in other accrued expenses on our balance sheets until the taxes are remitted to governmental authorities.

Food and Beverage Costs

 

Food and beverage costs include inventory costs of purchased food and beverages for resale. Vendor allowances received in connection with the purchase of a vendor’s products are recognized as a reduction of the related food and beverage costs as earned.

 

25 

 

Inventory

 

Inventories consist of food, beverage and related serving supplies and are carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method.

Leases

 

Operating leases consist of restaurant locations and generally have remaining terms of 5 - 10 years and most include options to extend the leases for additional 5-year periods. Generally, the lease term is the minimum of the noncancelable period of the lease or the lease term inclusive of reasonably certain renewal periods. If the estimate of our reasonably certain lease term were changed, our depreciation and rent expense could differ materially.

 

Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date. Operating lease liabilities represent the present value of lease payments not yet paid. Operating lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset and are based upon the operating lease liabilities adjusted for prepayments or accrued lease payments, initial direct costs, lease incentives, and impairment of operating lease assets. To determine the present value of lease payments not yet paid, we estimate incremental borrowing rates corresponding to the reasonably certain lease term. If the estimate of our incremental borrowing rate were changed, our operating lease assets and liabilities could differ materially.

Pre-Opening Expenses

 

Non-capital expenditures associated with opening new restaurants are expensed as incurred.

Advertising

 

Production costs of commercials are expensed in the fiscal period the advertising is first aired while the costs of programming and other advertising, promotion and marketing programs are expensed as incurred. These costs are reported as part of general and administrative in statement of operations.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Fast Casual records stock-based compensation using the fair value method. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC 718, Stock Compensation and are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued. All transactions with non-employees in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC 515, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees, based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments  

 

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”) and ASC 825, Financial Instruments (“ASC 825”), require an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. It establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument's categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. It prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 - Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

26 

 

Level 2 - Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3 - Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The carrying values of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value. Pursuant to ASC 820 and 825, the fair value of cash is determined based on "Level 1" inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.

New Accounting Pronouncements

 

Fast Casual has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements. The Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity”. ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity by removing the separation models for convertible debt with cash conversion and beneficial conversion features by requiring entities not to separately present in equity an embedded conversion feature in such debt and instead will account for a convertible debt instrument and convertible preferred stock as a single unit of account unless a convertible instrument contains features that require bifurcation as a derivative under ASC 815 or was issued at a substantial premium. The ASU is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 but may be early adopted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is evaluating the effect that this update will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (ASC 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2018-13 removes certain disclosures, modifies certain disclosures and adds additional disclosures. ASU 2018-13 was effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company’s adoption of ASU 2018-13 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, as part of its ongoing Simplification Initiative. ASU 2018-07 expands the scope of FASB Topic 718, Stock Compensation, to include nonemployee awards and generally aligning the accounting for nonemployee awards with the accounting for employee awards. ASU 2018-07 was effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company’s adoption of ASU 2018-13 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.

Long Lived Assets

Periodically Fast Casual assesses potential impairment of its long-lived assets, which include property, equipment and acquired intangible assets, in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant and Equipment. Fast Casual recognizes impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying values. An impairment loss would be recognized in the amount by which the recorded value of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset, measured by the quoted market price of an asset or an estimate based on the best information available in the circumstances. There were no such losses recognized during the year ended December 31, 2020 and from inception through December 31, 2019.

 

27 

 

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

 

Fast Casual presents both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the statements of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including convertible debt, stock options, and warrants, using the treasury stock method, and convertible debt instrument, using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

The calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share are as follows:

   December 31,
2020
   Period from Inception on
March 23, 2019 through
December 31,
2019
 
Basic Loss Per Share:          
Numerator:          
Net loss  $(511,580)  $(319,669)
Denominator:          
Weighted-average common shares outstanding   100,526,236    44,876,325 
Basic net loss per share  $(0.01)  $(0.01)

 

Income Taxes

 

Fast Casual files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and the states of Pennsylvania and Wyoming. Fast Casual’s policy is to recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.

 

Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

NOTE 4 - LEASES

 

Fast Casual leases restaurant space under leases having remaining lease terms of up to ten years. Fast Casual has included the initial lease term in the cases where there are options to extend as it has determined that it is not reasonably certain that Fast Casual would exercise those options. Leases are classified as either finance or operating at inception of the lease, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statements of operations. Operating leases result in the recognition of right-of-use lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet. Right-of-use lease assets represent the Fast Casual's right to use the leased asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments. The liability is calculated as the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments for existing operating leases using either the rate implicit in the lease or, if none exists, Fast Casual's incremental borrowing rate of 6.99%.

 

During April 2019, Fast Casual and an entity owned and operated by an officer and director of Fast Casual, entered into a ten-year lease for a restaurant space in Slippery Rock, PA, ending April 30, 2029.

NOTE 7 - GOING CONCERN

 

Fast Casual's financial statements are prepared using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles applicable to a going concern that contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, Fast Casual has accumulated losses since its inception and has negative cash flows from operations, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans with respect to alleviating the adverse financial conditions that caused management to express substantial doubt about the Fast Casual's ability to continue as a going concern are as follows:

 

Fast Casual opened its first restaurant in 2019, opened two more in January 2020, one restaurant in December 2020 and plans to open a fifth restaurant by the end of 2021.
