Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

 

As an issuer with less than $1 billion in total annual gross revenues during our last fiscal year, we will qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) and this status will be significant if and when we become subject to the ongoing reporting requirements of the Exchange Act upon filing a Form 8-A. An emerging growth company may take advantage of certain reduced reporting requirements and is relieved of certain other significant requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to public companies. In particular, as an emerging growth company we:

 

  ¨ will not be required to obtain an auditor attestation on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;

 

  ¨ will not be required to provide a detailed narrative disclosure discussing our compensation principles, objectives and elements and analyzing how those elements fit with our principles and objectives (commonly referred to as “compensation discussion and analysis”);

 

  ¨ will not be required to obtain a non-binding advisory vote from our shareholders on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements (commonly referred to as the “say-on-pay,” “say-on-frequency” and “say-on-golden-parachute” votes);

 

  ¨ will be exempt from certain executive compensation disclosure provisions requiring a pay-for-performance graph and CEO pay ratio disclosure;

 

  ¨ may present only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, or MD&A; and
will be eligible to claim longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards.

 

We intend to take advantage of all of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions, including the longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards, and hereby elect to do so. Our election to use the phase-in periods may make it difficult to compare our financial statements to those of non-emerging growth companies and other emerging growth companies that have opted out of the phase-in periods under Section 107 of the JOBS Act.

 

Under the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of the above-described reduced reporting requirements and exemptions for up to five years after our initial sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or such earlier time that we no longer meet the definition of an emerging growth company. Note that this offering, while a public offering, is not a sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement, since the offering is conducted pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements. In this regard, the JOBS Act provides that we would cease to be an “emerging growth company” if we have more than $1 billion in annual revenues, have more than $700 million in market value of our Common Stock held by non-affiliates, or issue more than $1 billion in principal amount of non-convertible debt over a three-year period.

 

Certain of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions are also available to us due to the fact that we may also qualify, once listed, as a “smaller reporting company” under the Commission’s rules. For instance, smaller reporting companies are not required to obtain an auditor attestation on their assessment of internal control over financial reporting; are not required to provide a compensation discussion and analysis; are not required to provide a pay-for-performance graph or CEO pay ratio disclosure; and may present only two years of audited financial statements and related MD&A disclosure.

Bobacino Company Overview

 

Future Pearl Labs, Inc., doing business as Bobacino has built an automated vending machine that makes fresh boba tea drinks on demand. Our team has a wealth of experience in automation and kitchen technology and we are bringing this experience to build the first automated Boba Tea machine. We are backed Future VC, LLC and Embark Ventures. Additionally, we are backed by Future Labs VII, Inc. (dba Wavemaker Labs), an in-house robotics and automation venture studio. We are based in Santa Monica, California and are currently finishing our first fully-functional prototype.

 

Industry Overview

 

The worldwide Boba Tea market was estimated at $5.3 billion in 2019 and is expected to grow to over to $8 billion by 2024 according to a report by iCrowd Newswire dated July 7, 2020. 

 

Our Product

 

We have completed our first working prototype, which offers a selection of Boba Tea flavors to customers. With the help of a robotic arm, the machine fills a cup with Boba pearls (tapioca), ice, tea, milk and sweetener before sealing the cup with a lid and serving it to the customer. We currently have a team of part-time employees at Wavemaker Labs that manage all our product development efforts. We have already started business development efforts and have started to source partners and potential customers for our business. To date, we have not registered any IP, but we do plan to make IP generation a part of this business.

  

Selected Risks Associated with the Business

 

Our business is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including those highlighted in the section titled “Risk Factors” immediately following this summary. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

 

 

We have a limited operating history upon which to evaluate our performance, and have not yet generated profits or revenue.

 

  Our technology is not yet fully developed, and there is no guarantee that we will be able to develop and produce a fully working prototype of our core product.

 

  We may not find suppliers to manufacture the machines.

 

  We will be required to raise additional capital in order to develop our technology and prototype.

 

  Our company does not yet hold any patents on any products or technology.

 

  We rely on a small management team to execute our business plan.

 

  Our future revenue plans partially rely on two non-binding letters of intent.

 

  We could be adversely affected by product liability, personal injury or other health and safety issues.

 

  Competitive technologies could limit our ability to successfully deploy our technologies.

 

  We plan to initially rely on third-party manufacturers.

 

  We may need to raise additional capital, which might not be available or might be available only on terms unfavorable to us or our investors.

 

  There is no current market for any shares of the Company's stock.

Risk Factors

 

The SEC requires that we identify risks that are specific to our business and financial condition. We are still subject to all the same risks that all companies in our business, and all companies in the economy, are exposed to. These include risks relating to economic downturns, political and economic events and technological developments (such as hacking and the ability to prevent hacking). Additionally, early-stage companies are inherently riskier than more developed companies. You should consider general risks as well as specific risks when deciding whether to Invest. 

 

Risks Related to Our Company 

 

We are an early stage company and have not yet generated any revenue

Future Pearl Labs, Inc. ("Bobacino") was formed on March 6, 2020 and thereafter acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Future Labs I, Inc., a company controlled by Wavemaker Labs and formed on [___], from its existing shareholders. Accordingly, the Company has a limited history upon which an evaluation of its performance and future prospects can be made. Our current and proposed operations are subject to all business risks associated with new enterprises. These include likely fluctuations in operating results as the Company reacts to developments in its market, managing its growth and the entry of competitors into the market. We will only be able to pay dividends on any shares once our directors determine that we are financially able to do so. Bobacino has incurred a net loss and has had no revenues generated since inception. There is no assurance that we will be profitable in the next 3 years or generate sufficient revenues to pay dividends to the holders of the shares.

 

Any valuation at this stage is difficult to assess.

The valuation for this Offering was established by the Company and is not based on the financial results of the Company. Instead, it is based on management’s best estimates of the investment value of the Company, which is a subjective measure. This differs significantly from listed companies, which are valued publicly through market-driven stock prices. The valuation of private companies, especially early-stage companies, is difficult to assess and you may risk overpaying for your investment.

 

We have a limited operating history upon which to evaluate our performance, and have not yet generated profits or revenue.

We are a new company and have neither generated revenue, nor have we had any significant operating history. As such, it is difficult to determine how we will perform, as our core product has yet to come market.

 

Our auditor has issued a “going concern” opinion.

Our auditor has issued a “going concern” opinion on our financial statements, which means they are not sure that we will be able to succeed as a business without additional financing. As of December 31, 2019, date of our last audited financial statements, we had not yet commenced any revenue generating activity. As of June 30, 2020, we have sustained a net loss of $314,194 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2020. The audit report states that our ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months is dependent upon our ability to raise additional capital financing from investors sufficient to meet current and future obligations and deploy such capital to produce profitable operating results. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts. Our failure to raise additional capital could have a negative impact on not only our financial condition but also our ability to execute our business plan.

 

7

 

 

Our technology is not yet fully developed, and there is no guarantee that we will be able to develop and produce a fully working prototype of our core product.

We are still developing our Bobacino prototype that will determine what we create at scale production. We still have significant engineering and development work to do before we are ready to deliver a working version of our product and attain revenue. We may be unable to convert our prototype to a version that can easily be replicated and put into scale production. Additionally, we may not be able to make a transition to scale production, either via in house manufacturing or contract manufacturers.

 

We may not find suppliers to manufacture the machines.

Bobacino does not manufacture the machines completely in house. We obtain components from third-party manufacturers and suppliers in order to build our current demonstration products. We expect to continue this arrangement when ready to produce machines for sale as well at first as we refine the manufacturing process. Producing at scale in the future will require a third-party manufacturer to be the principal party responsible for assembly. We do not yet have any manufactures engaged for that function, without the right suppliers, Bobacino may not be able to build our machines at a price point acceptable to the market, which would harm our financial prospects.

 

We are offering Bonus Shares to some investors in this offering, which effectively gives them a discount on their investment. 

Certain investors in this offering who invest more than $[___], $[___], $[___], or $[___], are entitled to receive Bonus Shares as a specific percentage of the amount of their investment. The Bonus Shares effectively gives such investors in this offering a discount on their investment. Therefore, the value of shares of investors who invest less than $[___] will be immediately diluted by investments made by investors entitled to receive the Bonus Shares, who will effectively pay a lower price per share.

 

We will be required to raise additional capital in order to develop our technology and prototype.

We will not be able to sell or distribute a working version of our product if we cannot raise debt or equity financing.

 

Our company does not yet hold any patents on any products or technology.

We do not yet hold any patents on our product, and so cannot guarantee that our product or technology is proprietary nor that it may be copied by another competitor. Because of this, our technology is not currently proprietary and could be easily copied by other companies.

 

We rely on a small management team to execute our business plan.

Our management team is currently small and made up of only one part-time individual, Darian Ahler, we rely on to help us raise funds and help grow our business. Our partnership and relationship with Future VC, LLC and Embark Ventures is crucial for us to achieve our growth plan.

 

Our failure to attract and retain highly qualified personnel in the future could harm our business.

As the Company grows, it will be required to hire and attract additional qualified professionals such as software engineers, robotics engineers, and machine learning experts, project managers, regulatory professionals, sales and marketing professionals, accounting, legal, and finance experts. The Company may not be able to locate or attract qualified individuals for such positions, which will affect the Company’s ability to grow and expand its business. 

 

Our future revenue plans rely on white-labeling our product to existing boba tea brands.

Our largest stream of projected revenue comes from selling our pods as “white-labeled” products to existing boba tea brands. If we are unable to create partnerships and achieve these sales to existing boba tea brands it will greatly affect our business model and jeopardize our go-to-market strategy.

 

The Company’s business model is capital intensive. 

The amount of capital the Company is attempting to raise in this Offering is not enough to sustain the Company’s current business plan. In order to achieve near and long-term goals, the Company will need to procure funds in addition to the amount raised in the Offering. There is no guarantee the Company will be able to raise such funds on acceptable terms or at all. If the Company is not able to raise sufficient capital in the future, then it will not be able to execute its business plan, its continued operations will be in jeopardy and it may be forced to cease operations and sell or otherwise transfer all or substantially all of its remaining assets, which could cause a Purchaser to lose all or a portion of his or her investment.

 

We could be adversely affected by product liability, personal injury or other health and safety issues.

As with any company serving food, we must adhere to strict health and safety standards. We could suffer significant reputational damage and financial liability if we experience any of the foregoing health and safety issues or incidents, which could have a material adverse effect on our business operations, financial condition and results of operations.

 

8

 

 

We may need to raise additional capital, which might not be available or might be available only on terms unfavorable to us or our investors.

In order to continue to operate and grow the business, we will likely need to raise additional capital beyond this current financing round by offering shares of our Common or Preferred Stock and/or other classes of equity. All of these would result in dilution to our existing investors, plus they may include additional rights or terms that may be unfavorable to our existing investor base. We cannot assure you that the necessary funds will be available on a timely basis, on favorable terms, or at all, or that such funds, if raised, would be sufficient. The level and timing of future expenditure will depend on a number of factors, many of which are outside our control. If we are not able to obtain additional capital on acceptable terms, or at all, we may be forced to curtail or abandon our growth plans, which could adversely impact the Company, its business, development, financial condition, operating results or prospects.

 

We may never have an operational product or service

It is possible that there may never be a fully operational Bobacino vending machine or that the product may never be used to engage in transactions. It is possible that the failure to release the product is the result of a change in business model upon Company's making a determination that the business model, or some other factor, will not be in the best interest of Company and its stockholders/members/creditors.

 

Using a credit card to purchase shares may impact the return on your investment as well as subject you to other risks inherent in this form of payment.  

Investors in this offering have the option of paying for their investment with a credit card, which is not usual in the traditional investment markets. Transaction fees charged by your credit card company (which can reach 5% of transaction value if considered a cash advance) and interest charged on unpaid card balances (which can reach almost 25% in some states) add to the effective purchase price of the shares you buy. See “Plan of Distribution and Selling Securityholders.”  The cost of using a credit card may also increase if you do not make the minimum monthly card payments and incur late fees. Using a credit card is a relatively new form of payment for securities and will subject you to other risks inherent in this form of payment, including that, if you fail to make credit card payments (e.g. minimum monthly payments), you risk damaging your credit score and payment by credit card may be more susceptible to abuse than other forms of payment. Moreover, where a third-party payment processor is used, your recovery options in the case of disputes may be limited. The increased costs due to transaction fees and interest may reduce the return on your investment. 

 

The Commission’s Office of Investor Education and Advocacy issued an Investor Alert dated February 14, 2018 entitled: Credit Cards and Investments – A Risky Combination, which explains these and other risks you may want to consider before using a credit card to pay for your investment.

 

Our Subscription Agreement for this Offering, as well as our Bylaws, as amended, include forum selection provision, which could result in less favorable outcomes to the plaintiff(s) in any action against the Company. 

Our subscription agreement for this offering, as well as our Bylaws, as amended, include forum selection provisions that requires any claims against the Company by subscribers or stockholders not arising under the federal securities laws to be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in California, or the Court of Chancery State in the state of Delaware, respectively. This forum selection provision may limit investors’ ability to bring claims in judicial forums that they find favorable to such disputes and may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims.

We are and may continue to be significantly impacted by the worldwide economic downturn due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, or COVID-19, was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. COVID-19 has spread to many countries, including the United States, and was declared to be a pandemic by the World Health Organization. Efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19 have intensified and the U.S., Europe and Asia have implemented severe travel restrictions and social distancing. The impacts of the outbreak are unknown and rapidly evolving. A widespread health crisis has adversely affected and could continue to affect the global economy, resulting in an economic downturn that could negatively impact the value of the Company’s shares and investor demand for shares generally.

 

The continued spread of COVID-19 has also led to severe disruption and volatility in the global capital markets, which could increase our cost of capital and adversely affect our ability to access the capital markets in the future. It is possible that the continued spread of COVID-19 could cause a further economic slowdown or recession or cause other unpredictable events, each of which could adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

 

The extent to which COVID-19 affects our financial results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the COVID-19 outbreak and the actions to contain the outbreak or treat its impact, among others. Moreover, the COVID-19 outbreak has had and may continue to have indeterminable adverse effects on general commercial activity and the world economy, and our business and results of operations could be adversely affected to the extent that COVID-19 or any other pandemic harms the global economy generally.

 

Specifically, COVID -19 may impact the production and distribution of Future Pearl Labs. If we are unable to produce our products due to manufacturing strains, we may not be able to distribute our product quickly and scale our business. This impact would mean we’d need to raise additional capital in order to meet our revenue targets.

Certain data and information in this offering circular were obtained from third-party sources and were not independently verified by the Company.

This offering circular contains certain data and information that we obtained from various publicly available third-party publications. We have not independently verified the data and information contained in such third-party publications and we did not commission any such third party for collecting or providing the data used in this offering circular. Data and information contained in such third-party publications and reports may be collected using third-party methodologies, which may differ from the data collection methods we would have used. In addition, these industry publications and reports generally indicate that the information contained therein is believed to be reliable, but do not guarantee the accuracy and completeness of such information. Further, none of these sources are incorporated by reference into this offering circular.

 

Your rights as a holder of Common Stock may be limited by the number of shares held by Future VC, LLC and Embark Ventures, LP.

The Company is currently controlled by two entities, Future VC, LLC and Embark Ventures, which collectively control approximately 90.29% of the voting power of our capital stock (if no other people exercised their rights to acquire those securities). Even if we raise the maximum amount in this offering, Future VC and Embark Ventures will control [___]% of our outstanding voting stock (excluding any issued Bonus Shares) and [___]% of our Class F Stock. The Class F Stock is entitled to certain protective provisions, as described in herein under “Securities Being Offered” and the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation. Any vote in regard to the approval or disapproval of those items listed under the protective provisions would be either controlled by or substantially influenced by Future VC, LLC and Embark Ventures, potentially against the interests of the rest of the Common Stock holders. 

 

There is no current market for any shares of the Company's stock.

There is no formal marketplace for the resale of the Preferred stock or any of the Company’s Common Stock. Shares of Common Stock may be traded on the over-the-counter market to the extent any demand exists. Investors should assume that they may not be able to liquidate their investment for some time, or be able to pledge their shares as collateral. The company has no plans to list any of its shares on any OTC or similar exchange.

 

Dilution

 

Dilution means a reduction in value, control or earnings of the shares the investor owns.

 

Immediate dilution

 

An early-stage company typically sells its shares (or grants options over its shares) to its founders and early employees at a very low cash cost, because they are, in effect, putting their “sweat equity” into the Company. When the Company seeks cash investments from outside investors, like you, the new investors typically pay a much larger sum for their shares than the founders or earlier investors, which means that the cash value of your stake is diluted because each share of the same type is worth the same amount, and you paid more for your shares than earlier investors did for theirs.

 

The following table compares the price that new investors are paying for their shares with the effective cash price paid by existing shareholders, giving effect to full conversion of all outstanding stock options, and assuming that the shares are sold at [___] per share. The schedule presents shares and pricing as issued and reflects all transactions since inception, which gives investors a better picture of what they will pay for their investment compared to the Company’s insiders than just including such transactions for the last 12 months, which is what the SEC requires.

 

 [Table To Be Filed By Amendment]

  

The following table demonstrates the dilution that new investors will experience upon investment in the Company. This table uses the Company’s net tangible book value as of [__/__/__] of [___] which is derived from the net equity of the Company in the [__/__/__]audited financial statements. This tangible net book value is then adjusted to contemplate conversion of all other convertible instruments outstanding at current that would provide proceeds to the Company. The offering costs assumed in the following table includes up to $[___] in commissions to StartEngine Primary, LLC, as well as legal and accounting fees incurred for this Offering. The table presents three scenarios for the convenience of the reader: a $[___] raise from this offering, a $[___] raise from this offering, and a fully subscribed $[___] raise from this offering (maximum offering).

 

The next table is the same as the previous, but adds in consideration of authorized but unissued stock options, presenting the fully diluted basis. This adds [___] pre-financing shares outstanding and is not adjusted for potential conversion proceeds on the hypothetical exercise of these options.

 

11

 

 

 

[Table To Be Filed By Amendment]

 

The final table is the same as the previous two, but removes the assumptions of conversion of options, and warrants and consideration of authorized but unissued stock options, instead only presenting issued shares (common shares, plus the assumption of conversion of all issued and outstanding preferred shares).

Future Dilution

 

Another important way of looking at dilution is the dilution that happens due to future actions by the company. The investor’s stake in a company could be diluted due to the company issuing additional shares, whether as part of a capital-raising event, or issued as compensation to the company’s employees or marketing partners. In other words, when the company issues more shares, the percentage of the company that you own will go down, even though the value of the company may go up. You will own a smaller piece of a larger company. This increase in number of shares outstanding could result from a stock offering (such as an initial public offering, another crowdfunding round, a venture capital round, angel investment), employees exercising stock options, or by conversion of certain instruments (e.g. convertible bonds, preferred shares or warrants) into stock.

 

If the company decides to issue more shares, an investor could experience value dilution, with each share being worth less than before, and control dilution, with the total percentage an investor owns being less than before. There may also be earnings dilution, with a reduction in the amount earned per share (though this typically occurs only if the company offers dividends, and most development stage companies do not pay dividends for some time).

 

The type of dilution that hurts early-stage investors most occurs when the company sells more shares in a “down round,” meaning at a lower valuation than in earlier offerings. An example of how this might occur is as follows (numbers are for illustrative purposes only):

 

  In June 2014, Jane invests $20,000 for shares that represent 2% of a company valued at $1 million.

 

  In December, the company is doing very well and sells $5 million in shares to venture capitalists on a valuation (before the new investment) of $10 million. Jane now owns only 1.3% of the company, but her stake is worth $200,000.

 

  In June 2015, the company has run into serious problems, and in order to stay afloat, it raises $1 million at a valuation of only $2 million (the “down round”). Jane now owns only 0.89% of the company, and her stake is worth only $26,660.

 

If you are making an investment expecting to own a certain percentage of the company or expecting each share to hold a certain amount of value, it’s important to realize how the value of those shares can decrease by actions taken by the company. Dilution can make drastic changes to the value of each share, ownership percentage, voting control, and earnings per share. In some cases, dilution can also completely wipe out the value of investments made by early investors, without any person being at fault.

 

Investors should understand how dilution works and the availability of anti-dilution protection.

 

Use of Proceeds To The Issuer

 

In each case StartEngine Primary may charge investors a fee of 3.5%, in which case the commission set forth above shall be reduced commensurately. In the event an investor invests in excess of $20,000, such investor fee shall be limited to $700 and Company shall pay the 3.5% additional commission with respect to any amount in excess of $20,000

 

12

 

 

The fee shall be paid in cash upon disbursement of funds from escrow at the time of each closing. Payment will be made to StartEngine directly from the escrow account maintained for the Offering. The Company acknowledges that StartEngine is responsible for providing instructions to the escrow agent for distribution of funds held pending completion or termination of the Offering.

 

Assuming a maximum raise of $[___], the net proceeds of this offering would be approximately $[___] after subtracting estimated offering costs of $[___] to StartEngine Primary, LLC in commissions, and $[___] in audit, legal, and filings fees. If Bobacino successfully raises the maximum amount under this raise the Company intends to hire additional personnel in engineering and sales, spend additional on marketing to bring in more leads and customers, in addition to being able to fund a minimum viable product which can be used to begin production.

 

Assuming a raise of $[___], representing 50% of the maximum offering amount, the net proceeds would be approximately $[___] after subtracting estimated offering costs of $,[___] to StartEngine Primary, LLC in commissions and $,[___] in audit, legal, and filings fees. In such an event, Bobacino would hire a few less personnel engineering, sales, and marketing, but still be able to fund its minimum viable product and move into full production of its mower. 

 

Assuming a raise of the minimum of $[___], representing 10% of the maximum offering amount, net proceeds would be approximately $,[___] after subtracting estimated offering costs of $,[___] to StartEngine Primary, LLC in commissions and $[___] in audit, legal, and filings fees. In such an event, Bobacino would hire three to four engineers and be able to complete a minimum viable product, which would allow it to start production and deliver product on its two letters of intent.

 

The Company does not intend to use any proceeds from this offering to pay back any outstanding promissory notes.

Our Business

 

Company History

 

Bobacino was incorporated on [___] when the team saw the growing trend of Boba Tea that was quickly gaining popularity around the world. With a wealth of experience in automation and kitchen technology, the team sees an increasing demand for high quality products and quick, safe, convenient service in the fast food and beverage industry. By combining automation with the Boba Tea trend, we believe we can capture meaningful value and capitalize on a rapidly growing market. Traditional Boba Tea shops are burdened by high labor and real estate costs, and oftentimes sacrifice quality for quick and easy service. Bobacino aims to provide the highest quality of ingredients while delivering a fast, easy experience for consumers.

 

The CEO, Darian Ahler, previously served as co-founder and Head of Operations at Truebird, which developed a fully automated micro-café that served high-quality espresso to consumers. Before his time at Truebird, he spent many years working in the industrial food processing industry as a mechanical engineer. Darian has deep experience at the intersection of food and automation, with over a dozen years as an engineer, leader and innovator in the emerging food technology space. His knowledge in the realm is key in understanding the risks and challenges that will need to be overcome for this company to be successful.

 

Bobacino’s development is amplified through Embark Ventures, Future VC, LLC (a Wavemaker Partners company), and Wavemaker Labs. Both Future VC, LLC and Embark Ventures serve as lead investors in the Company while Wavemaker Labs provides access to a team of roboticists and business creatives for Bobacino, reducing costs when compared to other robotics related startups. The team at Wavemaker Labs notably launched an AI-driven robotic kitchen assistant at Miso Robotics. Wavemaker Partners and its subsidiary Wavemaker Labs provide insights to food technology, robotic R&D, and a team of strategic and technical experts in engineering the Piestro pizzeria. The advantages of being a Wavemaker company are outlined further below.

Product Overview

 

Bobacino has built their first prototype of a fully-automated, fast and easily accessible Boba Tea machine that offers an assortment of flavors and options for consumers at the press of a button. The main attraction within the machine is a 6 axis robotic arm which steals the show by orchestrating the whole process. Once ordered by a customer, the arm grabs an empty cup, fills it with boba pearls (tapioca), ice, tea, milk and sweetener then it seals the cup and hands it off to the consumer. All of this within 1 minute.

 

Fully-Automated - Existing fast food and quick-service restaurants operate under an environment where labor incurs a high operating cost. Bobacino brings a start-to-finish automated boba experience that decreases labor costs, which are very high in traditional brick and mortar restaurants.

  

Accessible - Since the Bobacino machine is fully automated, it will be able to operate on a 24/7 basis. The current prototype requires a small amount of real estate to operate, allowing the company to decreases real-estate costs required, when compared to traditional brick-and-mortar boba tea restaurants.  

 

The Company has entered a Master Services Agreement (MSA) with Wavemaker Labs to mitigate risks and costs that can typically be associated with building robotics companies. Top engineering talent and complex hardware and equipment can be expensive for a young company with a small team. By entering into this agreement with Wavemaker Labs, Bobacino is able to build and test their prototype at below market costs.

Market  

 

Boba tea (Also known as Bubble Tea) is a Taiwanese drink that originated in Taipei in the late 1980s. Bubble tea drew upon the already established practice of tea drinking in various parts of East Asia and adapted it to create a cooling drink for the summertime. Since its creation in the 1980s, Bubble Tea has grown in popularity and popular chains have set up locations across various Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities across East Asia, Southeast Asia, Europe, and North America. In fact, McDonald’s Germany added bubble tea to their menu back in 2012.

 

With this growth in popularity, the global market for bubble tea has followed suit and is expected to continue this growth trajectory in the future. The global market for bubble tea was estimated at $5.3B in 2019. This market is expected to continue growing, and it is estimated that the global market will balloon to $8.4B by 2024 according to a report by iCrowd Newswire dated July 7, 2020. 

 

While markets like North America and Europe are “up-and-coming” in terms of overall demand, Asia continues to dominate. Grab, the Singaporean ride-hailing and food delivery service giant recently conducted a study on the growing obsession over the drink in the Southeast Asian region. The report, titled “Bubble Tea Craze on GrabFood!” stated that bubble tea orders on the platform had increased 3000% over the course of 2018, and as a result, GrabFood now has close to 4000 bubble tea outlets in their network, a 200% increase in outlets for the region. Grab also found that, on average, Southeast Asians drink 4 cups of boba per month. 

 

In the United States, bubble tea has not been short of a “craze” either. Interest in bubble tea has been growing consistently in terms of Google searches, which can be found on Google Trends. Additionally, the number of venues listed as “bubble tea shop” on location-discovery app and technology platform Foursquare has more than tripled in the last four years, growing from 884 in September 2015 to 2,980 in September 2019, according to data provided by Foursquare, as reported on Eater in an article dated November 5th, 2019.  

 

Manufacturing

 

The strategy for manufacturing will evolve with production volumes, leveraging contract manufacturers to meet initial and medium-term demand while Bobacino builds and fine tunes its internal production lines to service long-term demand. In the near term, all Bobacino products will be produced internally and locally in order to maintain control over quality and cost, and most importantly, to ensure there is a direct source of feedback for ongoing product improvement.

 

Initial pre-production volumes, roughly on the order of 10-50 units, will be produced in small batches internally and through local manufacturers for certain parts. This will allow Bobacino to rapidly address any issues that may arise and help ensure a smooth ramp-up for the contract manufacturer. Once released for production, demand will be met by a combination of the output from the contract manufacturers along with our own internal production lines, the majority from the contract manufacturer at first. This will allow Bobacino to focus on automation and quality programs without restricting production volumes. As production begins to scale, Bobacino plans to use other manufacturing opportunities for faster production at lower costs.

 

Sales & Marketing

 

We believe our automated boba tea machine will resonate with existing boba tea brands and direct consumers because of its fast, easy and accessible features. We plan to hold a dual revenue stream approach by both offering white-labeled partnerships for existing boba tea restaurants and Bobacino branded machines for a direct to consumer model. Because Boba tea is quickly becoming popular globally, we also look to expand towards markets and franchises overseas.

 

16

 

 

For these reasons, our sales and marketing efforts are reliant upon two approaches.

 

  (1) Bobacino must establish real-estate locations for our Bobacino owned units. A partnership with a nationwide operation such as co-working spaces, theme parks, or convenience stores would accelerate this side of the business model.

 

  (2) Bobacino must identify existing boba tea brands, large and small, to capture as customers to white label the Bobacino machinwes. These chains would benefit from growing their market reach without the significant costs and risks associated with opening new brick and mortar restaurants.

 

Competition

 

Within the global bubble tea market, market dominance is concentrated amongst a few key incumbent players, like Cha Time, Gong Cha, and CoCo Fresh Tea & Juice, that were initially established in Taiwan and have since commercialized across various regions. In addition, there are a few homegrown disruptors in the bubble tea space, like Boba Guys and Kung Fu Tea, that were established in the US and are now challenging incumbents with modern versions of traditional recipes and unique product offerings. Out of the incumbent bubble tea chains, CoCo Fresh Tea & Juice, which was founded in Tamsui, Taiwan in 1997, is the oldest and most established with ChaTime and Gong Cha following after. Below is a snapshot of the global presence of the largest active bubble tea chains:

In addition to the traditional bubble tea vendors, we have two competitors within the robotics space that are tackling the automation of Bubble Tea preparation. However, these companies are based outside of the US and therefore are not direct competitors of Bobacino as yet in terms of the markets we are focusing on. Below is a snapshot of the aforementioned companies:

 

17

 

 

·KouBei - In March 2019, Taiwanese bubble-tea chain, Happy Lemon, teamed up with Koubei, Alibaba Group’s local-services app, to upgrade its in-store technology, including a new drink-making robot At its pilot store in Shanghai, customers have the option of buying their drinks at a counter manned by employees, or opt for a fully automated experience through robot preparation. The robot prepares and mixes boba tea for customers. It can make 8 different types of drinks with about 40 variations based on customer preferences – each takes 90 seconds. Launched in 2017, there are now ~100 brands that have partnered with Koubei to upgrade their Brick & Mortar locations with in-store technology (online ordering) and autonomous robots. Happy Lemon; however, is the only boba brand they have partnered with.

 

·Taiwan Intelligence Robotics Company (TIRC) - TIRC’s Bubble Tea Shaker Robot (BTSR) was originally unveiled at the Taipei Food Show in 2018. In December 2018, BTSR was recognized at the International Innovation Awards (IIA) in Macau. The robot is capable of putting sugar and chewy tapioca pearls into a cup and shaking it vigorously – each glass of boba takes 30-45 seconds to make The machine can shake up to 100 cups per hour. However, the entire process is not automated – the robot still needs people to prepare the tea and tapioca pearls. The Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA) has been marketing TIRC’s boba robot at trade shows in hopes of using the technology at scale to export boba milk tea globally. As of now, the BTSR is only being used domestically within Taiwan.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis on Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included in this Offering Circular. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements.

Operating Results – Fiscal Years Ended June 30, 2020

 

The Company has not recorded any revenues to date .  Operating expenses in 2018 and 2019 for Future Labs I were $208,900 and $30,641, respectively. These expenses related primarily to marketing and business development activities. Expenses for the Company (Future Pearl Labs) for the 6 month ended June 30, 2020, on a proforma basis, were $314,694, representing primarily research & development  activities in order to build our first prototype.  Once we begin manufacturing and selling our product we expect to derive revenues from selling our Boba Tea vending machines for an expected up front cost of $50,000 plus a monthly SaaS (Software as a Service) fee of $1,000.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources – Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2020

 

As of June 30, 2020 the Company had $37,500 in cash and cash equivalents ($112,494 on a proforma basis).  We currently utilize approximately $54,000 per month to fund our ongoing operations and expect this to increase to $120,000 per month once we have raised the minimum amount of proceeds in this offering and have deployed the funds as described under use of proceeds.

 

Through June 30, 2020 Company had received $100,000 in funding from Embark Ventures. After June 30, 2020 the Company expects to raise additional funding from Future VC, LLC and through Regulation A+ equity crowdfunding over the next 12 month period.  

  

Plan of Operations

We have not yet generated any revenues and we currently have a small team of part time employees and consultants that have helped us build a working prototype. If we raise the minimum amount set out in our “Use of Proceeds”, we will begin hiring more engineers to help us complete a fully working prototype and a minimal viable product and based on our projections, we estimate that within 12 months, we will be able to start production.

 

We believe the minimum offering amount of proceeds will satisfy our cash requirements to implement our plan of operations. If we are able to raise more than the minimum amount, we will be able to speed up production and deploy units faster than 12 months. Additionally, raising more than the minimum offering will allow us to hasten development of additional features of our boba tea vending machines, which could result in additional revenue from potential customers. If we raise the maximum amount of funds, we do not anticipate having to raise additional capital for the business. However, raising the minimum amount would likely result in us having to raise additional funds within 12 to 16 months.

 

Trend Information

The Company has had minimal expenses since launching in early 2020. This remains the case through June 30, 2020.

 

The Company had begun ramping up research and development of its prototype in early 2020, and by August 2020, had a preliminary prototype. The Company expects to start production and deliver the first batch of working pods in 2021. Prior to that date, we anticipate increased expenses associated with engineering, research and development, business development, marketing, and fundraising. Any delays in the development process can possibly have an effect on the Company’s ability to meet this deadline. These delays could be the result of inadequate financing and capital, lack of manufacturing resources, or unforeseen delays in the development process.

 

Although many businesses are financially impacted by COVID-19, we believe our product will see an increase in demand due to the touchless nature of the product. However, the effects of COVID-19 are rapidly growing and remain uncertain for the foreseeable future.

Subject to the prior rights of holders of all classes of stock at the time outstanding having prior rights as to dividends, the holders of the Class F Stock and Common Stock shall be entitled to receive, on a pari passu basis, when and as declared by the Board of Directors, out of any assets of the Corporation legally available therefor, such dividends as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors; provided, however, that in the event that such dividends are paid in the form of shares of Common Stock or rights to acquire Common Stock, the holders of shares of Class F Stock shall, in lieu thereof, receive shares of Class F Stock or rights to acquire shares of Class F Stock, as the case may be, and the holders of shares of Common Stock shall receive shares of Common Stock or rights to acquire shares of Common Stock, as the case may be.

 

Liquidation Rights

 

In the event of any Liquidation Event, whether voluntary or involuntary, the entire assets and funds of the Corporation legally available for distribution will be distributed among the holders of the Class F Stock and the Common Stock pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by each (assuming conversion of all such Class F Stock into Common Stock). a "Liquidation Event" shall include (i) any acquisition of the company by means of merger or other form of corporate reorganization in which outstanding shares of the company are exchanged for securities or other consideration issued, or caused to be issued, by the acquiring corporation or its subsidiary and in which the holders of capital stock of the company hold less than a majority of the voting power of the surviving entity (other than a mere reincorporation transaction), (ii) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the company, (iii) the closing of the transfer (whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise), in one transaction or a series of related transactions, to a person or group of affiliated persons (other than an underwriter of the company's securities), of the company's then outstanding securities if, after such closing, such person or group of affiliated persons would hold 50% or more of the outstanding voting stock of the company, or (iv) a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the company.

 

Class F Stock

  

Dividend Rights

 

Subject to the prior rights of holders of all classes of stock at the time outstanding having prior rights as to dividends, the holders of the Class F Stock and Common Stock shall be entitled to receive, on a pari passu basis, when and as declared by the Board of Directors, out of any assets of the Corporation legally available therefor, such dividends as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors; provided, however, that in the event that such dividends are paid in the form of shares of Common Stock or rights to acquire Common Stock, the holders of shares of Class F Stock shall, in lieu thereof, receive shares of Class F Stock or rights to acquire shares of Class F Stock, as the case may be, and the holders of shares of Common Stock shall receive shares of Common Stock or rights to acquire shares of Common Stock, as the case may be.

  

Election of Directors

 

Elections of directors don’t need to be by written ballot unless the Bylaws of the Corporation shall so provide.

 

Voting Rights

 

Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Certificate of Incorporation or as required by law, each holder of the Class F is entitled to one vote for each share of Common Stock into which such Class F Stock could then be directly converted. Holders of Class F Stock are entitled to vote on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders as a single class with the holders of Common Stock in accordance with the terms of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation.

 

24

 

 

Protective Provisions

 

As long as any shares of Class F Stock shall be issued and outstanding, the company shall not, without first obtaining the approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class F Stock, (i) amend, alter or repeal any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws of the company if such action would adversely alter the rights, preferences, privileges or powers of, or restrictions provided for the benefit of, the Class F Stock; (ii) increase or decrease the authorized number of shares of Class F Stock or Common Stock; (iii) liquidate, dissolve or wind-up the business and affairs of the company, effect any merger or consolidation or any other Liquidation Event; or (iv) create, or authorize the creation of, or issue or obligate itself to issue shares of, any additional class or series of capital stock.

 

Liquidation Rights

 

In the event of any Liquidation Event, whether voluntary or involuntary, the entire assets and funds of the Corporation legally available for distribution will be distributed among the holders of the Class F Stock and the Common Stock pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by each (assuming conversion of all such Class F Stock into Common Stock).

 

Conversion Rights

 

Conversion into Common Stock. Each share of Class F Stock is convertible at any time after the date of issuance of such share into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Common Stock. Each share of Class F Stock shall automatically be converted into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Common Stock immediately upon the date specified by written consent or agreement of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Class F Stock. Any transfer of a share of Class F Stock, with certain exceptions, shall be deemed an election by the holder thereof to convert such share into Common Stock and each such transferred share of Class F Stock shall automatically convert into one share of Common Stock, effective immediately prior to such transfer.

 

Conversion into Preferred Stock. Upon each equity financing in which the company sells and issues shares of Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of at least $1,000,000, ten percent (10%) of the shares of Class F Stock held by each holder of Class F Stock will automatically convert into shares of the series of Preferred Stock that is issued in such equity financing at the then applicable Conversion Ratio. "Conversion Ratio" means, for each such equity financing, the inverse of the ratio at which a share of Preferred Stock issued in such equity financing is convertible into Common Stock of the Corporation. In addition, any share of Class F Stock that is sold by the holder thereof in connection with such an equity financing shall, subject to restrictions on the transfer of such share under the bylaws or applicable agreements, automatically convert into shares of the Preferred Stock sold in such equity financing at the applicable Conversion Ratio, effective immediately upon the purchase of such share of Class F Stock by an investor in connection with such equity financing.

 

Additional Provisions applicable to Common Stock and Class F Stock

 

If the company in any manner subdivides (whether by stock split, subdivision, dividend, distribution or otherwise) or combines (whether by reverse split or otherwise) the outstanding shares of Common Stock or Class F Stock, then the outstanding shares of the other class of stock shall be subdivided or combined in the same manner.

 

In the event that the company shall enter into any consolidation, merger, combination or other transaction or series of related transactions in which shares of Common Stock or Class F Stock are exchanged for or converted into other stock or securities, or the right to receive cash or any other property, then, and in such event, the shares of Class F Stock and Common Stock shall be entitled to be exchanged for or converted into the same kind and amount of stock, securities, cash or any other property, as the case may be, into which or for which each share of the other class of stock is exchanged or converted.

 

Blank Check Preferred Stock

 

Preferred Stock may be divided into such number of series as our Board of Directors may determine. The Board of Directors is authorized to determine and alter the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions granted to or imposed upon any wholly unissued series of Preferred Stock, and to fix the numbers of shares of any series of Preferred Stock and the designation of any such series of Preferred Stock. The Board of Directors, within the limits and restrictions stated in any resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors originally fixing the number of shares constituting any series, may increase or decrease (but not below the number of shares of such series then outstanding) the number of shares of such series subsequent to the issue of shares of that series.

 

Provisions of Note in Our Bylaws

 

Under Article VII of our Bylaws, the sole and exclusive judicial forum for the following actions will be the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware:

 

(1) Any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation;

 

(2) Any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of the Corporation to the Corporation or the Corporation’s stockholders;

 

25

 

 

(3) Any action asserting a claim against the Corporation arising pursuant to any provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law; or

 

(4) Any action asserting a claim against the Corporation governed by the internal affairs doctrine.

 

Although we believe the provision benefits us by providing increased consistency in the application of Delaware law in the types of lawsuits to which it applies and in limiting our litigation costs, the forum selection provision may limit investors’ ability to bring claims in judicial forums that they find favorable to such disputes and may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims. The company has adopted the provision to limit the time and expense incurred by its management to challenge any such claims. As a company with a small management team, this provision allows its officers to not lose a significant amount of time travelling to any particular forum so they may continue to focus on operations of the company. This provision is not interpreted to apply to actions arising under the Securities Act. Further, it does not apply to actions arising under the Exchange Act as Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. As a result, the exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Investors will not be deemed to have waived the company’s compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

In addition, StartEngine Crowdfunding will assist with the facilitation of credit and debit card payments through the Online Platform.

The fee shall be paid in cash upon disbursement of funds from escrow at the time of each closing. Payment will be made to StartEngine directly from the escrow account maintained for the Offering. The Company acknowledges that StartEngine is responsible for providing instructions to the escrow agent for distribution of funds held pending completion or termination of the Offering.

 

Bonus Shares for Certain Investors

 

Certain investors in this offering are eligible to receive bonus shares of Common Stock, which effectively gives them a discount on their investment. Those investors will receive, as part of their investment, additional shares for their shares purchased (“Bonus Shares”) equal to [__]% or [__]% of the shares they purchase, depending upon the investment level of such investors. Investors that invest at least $[__] in this offering will receive a [__]% bonus over $[__] on their investment. Investors that invest at least $[__] will receive a [__]% bonus over $[__]. Investors receiving the [__]% bonus will pay an effective price of approximately $[__] per share before the StartEngine processing fee, while investors receiving the [__]% bonus will pay an effective price of approximately $[__] per share before the StartEngine processing fee.

 

Additionally, investors in this offering who also participated in the Company’s Regulation CF offering with StartEngine Primary, will receive, as a part of their investment, additional shares for their shares purchased (“Bonus Shares”) equal to [__]% of the shares they purchase.

 

The StartEngine processing fee will be assessed on the full share price of $[__] and not the effective, post bonus, price.  

 

28

 

 

Transfer Agent and Registrar 

 

Transfer Agent services (StartEngine Secure, LLC) will serve as transfer agent to maintain shareholder information on a book-entry basis. We will not issue shares in physical or paper form. Instead, our shares will be recorded and maintained on our shareholder register.

 

Investor’s Tender of Funds

 

After the Offering Statement has been qualified by the Commission, the Company will accept tenders of funds to purchase the Common Stock. The Company may close on investments on a “rolling” basis (so not all investors will receive their shares on the same date), provided that the minimum offering amount has been met. Investors may subscribe by tendering funds via wire or ACH only, checks will not be accepted, to the escrow account to be setup by the Escrow Agent. Tendered funds will remain in escrow until both the minimum offering amount has been reached and a closing has occurred. However, in the event we have not sold the minimum amount of shares by the date that is one year from the qualification of this offering with the Commission, or sooner terminated by the Company, any money tendered by potential investors will be promptly returned by the Escrow Agent. Upon closing, funds tendered by investors will be made available to the Company for its use.

 

The minimum investment in this offering is $[___] , or [___] shares of Common Stock.

 

Investors will be required to subscribe to the Offering via the Online Platform and agree to the terms of the Offering, the subscription agreement, and any other relevant exhibit attached thereto. The subscription agreement includes a representation by the investor to the effect that, if you are not an “accredited investor” as defined under securities law, you are investing an amount that does not exceed the greater of 10% of your annual income or 10% of your net worth (excluding your principal residence).

 

Provisions of Note in Our Subscription Agreement

 

Forum Selection Provision

The subscription agreement that investors will execute in connection with the offering includes a forum selection provision that requires any claims against the Company based on the agreement to be brought in a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction in the State of California, for the purpose of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or based upon the agreement. To the extent it is enforceable, the forum selection provision may limit investors’ ability to bring claims in judicial forums that they find favorable to such disputes and may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims. The Company has adopted the provision to limit the time and expense incurred by its management to challenge any such claims. As a company with a small management team, this provision allows its officers to not lose a significant amount of time travelling to any particular forum so they may continue to focus on operations of the Company. Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. We believe that the exclusive forum provision applies to claims arising under the Securities Act, but there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such a provision in this context. Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. As a result, the exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Investors will not be deemed to have waived the Company’s compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

 

Jury Trial Waiver 

The subscription agreement that investors will execute in connection with the offering provides that subscribers waive the right to a jury trial of any claim they may have against us arising out of or relating to the agreement, including any claim under federal securities laws.  By signing the subscription agreement an investor will warrant that the investor has reviewed this waiver with the investor’s legal counsel, and knowingly and voluntarily waives his or her jury trial rights following consultation with the investor’s legal counsel. If we opposed a jury trial demand based on the waiver, a court would determine whether the waiver was enforceable given the facts and circumstances of that case in accordance with applicable case law. In addition, by agreeing to the provision, subscribers will not be deemed to have waived the Company’s compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

 

Report on the Financial Statement

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Future Pearl Labs, Inc. (the “Company”) as of March 6, 2020 (inception) and the related notes to the financial statement.

 

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statement

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of this financial statement in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal controls relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statement that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

Auditor’s Responsibility

 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statement based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatements.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal controls relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal controls. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

 

In our opinion, the financial statement referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Future Pearl Labs, Inc. as of March 6, 2020 (inception), in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Emphasis of Matter Regarding Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statement has been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 2 to the financial statement, the Company has not yet commenced planned principal operations and has not generated revenues or profits since inception. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

As of March 6, 2020 (inception)

 

NOTE 1: NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Future Pearl Labs, Inc. (the “Company”) is a corporation organized March 6, 2020 under the laws of Delaware. The Company was formed to create automatic vending machines for bubble tea.

 

As of March 6, 2020 (inception), the Company has not yet commenced planned principal operations nor generated revenue. The Company’s activities since inception have consisted of formation activities and preparations to raise capital. Once the Company commences its planned principal operations, it will incur significant additional expenses. The Company is dependent upon additional capital resources for the commencement of its planned principal operations and is subject to significant risks and uncertainties; including failing to secure additional funding to operationalize the Company’s planned operations or failing to profitably operate the business.

 

NOTE 2: GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The Company has not yet commenced planned principal operations, plan to incur significant costs in pursuit of its capital financing plans, and has not generated revenues or profits since inception. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months following the date the financial statements were available to be issued is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional capital financing from investors sufficient to meet current and future obligations and deploy such capital to produce profitable operating results. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts.

 

These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

NOTE 3: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).

 

The Company adopted the calendar year as its basis of reporting.

 

Use of Estimates

 

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

 

See accompanying Independent Auditor’s Report

FUTURE PEARL LABS, INC. 

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

As of March 6, 2020 (inception)

 

Cash Equivalents and Concentration of Cash Balance

 

The Company considers all highly liquid securities with an original maturity of less than three months to be cash equivalents. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. As of March 6, 2020 (inception), the Company has not established a deposit account with a financial institution.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments whose value is based on quoted market prices such as exchange-traded instruments and listed equities.

 

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly (e.g., quoted prices of similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active).

 

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Financial instruments are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flows or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.

 

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet approximate their fair value.

 

Organizational Costs

 

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 720, organizational costs, including accounting fees, legal fees, and costs of incorporation, are expensed as incurred.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in ASC 740, Income Taxes.  Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using tax rates expected to be in effect during the years in which the basis differences reverse.  A valuation allowance is recorded when it is unlikely that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

See accompanying Independent Auditor’s Report

FUTURE PEARL LABS, INC. 

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

As of March 6, 2020 (inception)

 

The Company assesses its income tax positions and record tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon our evaluation of the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date.  In accordance with ASC 740-10, for those tax positions where there is a greater than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, the Company’s policy is to record the largest amount of tax benefit that is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information.  For those income tax positions where there is less than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, no tax benefit will be recognized in the financial statements. The Company has evaluated its income tax positions and has determined that it does not have any uncertain tax positions. The Company will recognize interest and penalties related to any uncertain tax positions through its income tax expense.

 

The Company accounts for income taxes with the recognition of estimated income taxes payable or refundable on income tax returns for the current period and for the estimated future tax effect attributable to temporary differences and carryforwards.  Measurement of deferred income items is based on enacted tax laws including tax rates, with the measurement of deferred income tax assets being reduced by available tax benefits not expected to be realized in the immediate future. The Company estimates it has net operating loss carryforwards of $0 as of March 6, 2020 (inception). The Company pays taxes at an effective blended rate of 28% and has used this effective rate to derive a net deferred tax asset of $0 as of March 6, 2020 (inception). Due to uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to generate sufficient taxable income in the future to utilize the net operating loss carryforwards before they begin to expire, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance to reduce the net deferred tax asset to zero.

 

The Company files U.S. federal and state income tax returns. All tax periods since inception remain open to examination by the taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.

 

NOTE 4: STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (DEFICIT)

 

The Company has authorized 4,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value Common Stock, 2,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value of Class F Stock and 2,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value of Preferred Stock. As of March 6, 2020 (inception), no shares of any class were issued or outstanding.

 

If and upon a liquidation of the Company, the holders of Common stock and Class F Stock have rights to all available net assets available for distribution on a pro rata basis.

 

Class F Stock have conversion rights, at the holders’ election, into shares of Common Stock at a dilution protected one-to-one ratio. Additionally, if and upon each future equity financing of over $1,000,000 (as further defined in the articles of incorporation) 10% of the outstanding Class F Stock automatically convert into shares of preferred stock in the triggering equity financing at a conversion rate based on the number of shares of common stock into which the preferred stock are to convert into.

 

Class F and Common Stock have voting rights, where preferred stock rights will be established in the future with the creation of each series of preferred stock.

NOTE 5: RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This ASU supersedes the previous revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605—Revenue Recognition and most industry-specific guidance throughout the ASC. The core principle within this ASU is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received for those goods or services. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which deferred the effective date for ASU 2014-09 by one year to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, while providing the option to early adopt for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. Transition methods under ASU 2014-09 must be through either (i) retrospective application to each prior reporting period presented, or (ii) retrospective application with a cumulative effect adjustment at the date of initial application. The Company plans to adopt this new standard effective at its inception date.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This ASU requires a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability under most operating leases in its balance sheet. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We are continuing to evaluate the impact of this new standard on our financial reporting and disclosures.

 

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements. As new accounting pronouncements are issued, we will adopt those that are applicable under the circumstances.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the period from March 6, 2020 (inception) to June 30, 2020

 

NOTE 1: NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Future Pearl Labs, Inc (the “Company”) is a corporation organized March 6, 2020 under the laws of Delaware. The Company was formed to create automatic vending machines for bubble tea.

 

As of June 30, 2020 inception, the Company has not yet commenced planned principal operations nor generated revenue. The Company’s activities since inception have consisted of formation activities and preparations to raise capital. Once the Company commences its planned principal operations, it will incur significant additional expenses. The Company is dependent upon additional capital resources for the commencement of its planned principal operations and is subject to significant risks and uncertainties; including failing to secure additional funding to operationalize the Company’s planned operations or failing to profitably operate the business.

 

NOTE 2: GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The Company has incurred losses of $314,194 for the period ended June 30, 2020. The Company has not yet commenced planned principal operations, plan to incur significant costs in pursuit of its capital financing plans, and has not generated revenues or profits since inception. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months following the date the financial statements were available to be issued is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional capital financing from investors sufficient to meet current and future obligations and deploy such capital to produce profitable operating results. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts.

 

These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

NOTE 3: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).

 

The Company adopted the calendar year as its basis of reporting.

 

Use of Estimates

 

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

 

Cash Equivalents and Concentration of Cash Balance

 

The Company considers all highly liquid securities with an original maturity of less than three months to be cash equivalents. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. As of June 30, 2020, all of the Company's cash were held at one accredited financial institution.

FUTURE PEARL LABS, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the period from March 6, 2020 (inception) to June 30, 2020

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments whose value is based on quoted market prices such as exchange-traded instruments and listed equities.

 

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly (e.g., quoted prices of similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active).

 

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Financial instruments are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flows or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.

 

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet approximate their fair value.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue when: (1) persuasive evidence exists of an arrangement with the customer reflecting the terms and conditions under which products or services will be provided; (2) delivery has occurred or services have been provided; (3) the fee is fixed or determinable; and (4) collection is reasonably assured. No revenue has been earned or recognized to date.

 

Organizational Costs

 

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 720, organizational costs, including accounting fees, legal fees, and costs of incorporation, are expensed as incurred.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in ASC 740, Income Taxes.  Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using tax rates expected to be in effect during the years in which the basis differences reverse.  A valuation allowance is recorded when it is unlikely that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

The Company assesses its income tax positions and record tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon our evaluation of the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date.  In accordance with ASC 740-10, for those tax positions where there is a greater than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, the Company’s policy is to record the largest amount of tax benefit that is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information.  For those income tax positions where there is less than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, no tax benefit will be recognized in the financial statements. The Company has evaluated its income tax positions and has determined that it does not have any uncertain tax positions. The Company will recognize interest and penalties related to any uncertain tax positions through its income tax expense.

FUTURE PEARL LABS, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the period from March 6, 2020 (inception) to June 30, 2020

 

The Company accounts for income taxes with the recognition of estimated income taxes payable or refundable on income tax returns for the current period and for the estimated future tax effect attributable to temporary differences and carryforwards.  Measurement of deferred income items is based on enacted tax laws including tax rates, with the measurement of deferred income tax assets being reduced by available tax benefits not expected to be realized in the immediate future. The Company estimates it has net operating loss carryforwards of $0 as of March 6, 2020 (inception). The Company pays taxes at an effective blended rate of 28% and has used this effective rate to derive a net deferred tax asset of $0 as of March 6, 2020 (inception). Due to uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to generate sufficient taxable income in the future to utilize the net operating loss carryforwards before they begin to expire, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance to reduce the net deferred tax asset to zero.

 

The Company files U.S. federal and state income tax returns. All tax periods since inception remain open to examination by the taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.

 

NOTE 4: STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (DEFICIT)

 

The Company has authorized 4,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value Common Stock, 2,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value of Class F Stock and 2,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value of Preferred Stock. As of March 6, 2020 (inception), no shares of any class were issued or outstanding.

 

If and upon a liquidation of the Company, the holders of Common stock and Class F Stock have rights to all available net assets available for distribution on a pro rata basis.

 

Class F Stock have conversion rights, at the holders’ election, into shares of Common Stock at a dilution protected one-to-one ratio. Additionally, if and upon each future equity financing of over $1,000,000 (as further defined in the articles of incorporation) 10% of the outstanding Class F Stock automatically convert into shares of preferred stock in the triggering equity financing at a conversion rate based on the number of shares of common stock into which the preferred stock are to convert into.

 

Class F and Common Stock have voting rights, where preferred stock rights will be established in the future with the creation of each series of preferred stock.

 

On March 20, 2020, the Company issued 200,000 shares of Class F Stock to Embark Ventures, LLP at a price per share of $0.50 for an aggregate purchase price of $100,000.

 

NOTE 5: RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This ASU supersedes the previous revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605—Revenue Recognition and most industry-specific guidance throughout the ASC. The core principle within this ASU is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received for those goods or services. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which deferred the effective date for ASU 2014-09 by one year to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, while providing the option to early adopt for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. Transition methods under ASU 2014-09 must be through either (i) retrospective application to each prior reporting period presented, or (ii) retrospective application with a cumulative effect adjustment at the date of initial application. The Company plans to adept this new standard effective at its inception date.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This ASU requires a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability under most operating leases in its balance sheet. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We are continuing to evaluate the impact of this new standard on our financial reporting and disclosures.

In September 2020, the Board authorized the Company’s Stock Incentive Plan to issue a total of 27,802 options to purchase shares of common stock and granted 19,802 options to employees with an exercise price of $0.50 per share.

 

In October 2020, Future VC, LLC contributed 2,373,199 common shares in Future Labs I, Inc. in exchange for 142,549 shares of Class F Stock of the Company. In conjunction with this transaction, Future VC, LLC contributed $100,000 in cash. Both Future VC, LLC and Future Labs I, Inc. are related parties of the Company.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

 

Report on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Future Labs I, Inc., which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.

 

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

 

Auditor’s Responsibility

 

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatements.

 

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Future Labs I, Inc. as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Emphasis of Matter Regarding Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has not generated profits since inception, has sustained net losses of $41,226 and $221,776 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and has incurred negative cash flows from operations for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $287,588 and limited liquid assets with $556 of cash held. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1.NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Future Labs I, Inc. (the “Company”), doing business as BentoBots, is a corporation formed on November 30, 2017 under the laws of Delaware. The Company was formed to sell robotic kitchen equipment. The Company is headquartered in Santa Monica, California.

 

The Company’s activities since inception have consisted primarily of formation activities and preparations to raise capital. Once the Company commences its planned principal operations, it will incur significant additional expenses. The Company is dependent upon additional capital resources for the commencement of its planned principal operations and is subject to significant risks and uncertainties; including failing to secure funding to operationalize the Company’s planned operations or failing to profitably operate the business.

 

2.GOING CONCERN

 

The Company has evaluated whether there are certain conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated profits since inception, has sustained net losses of $41,226 and $221,776 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and has incurred negative cash flows from operations for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $287,588 and limited liquid assets with $556 of cash. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, which it has not been able to accomplish to date, and/or to obtain additional capital financing. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities.

 

3.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The Company’s fiscal year is December 31.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the 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. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these financial statements include, but are not limited to, the valuations of common stock. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known trends and other market-specific or other relevant factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates when there are changes in circumstances, facts and experience. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company generally maintains balances in various operating accounts at financial institutions that management believes to be of high credit quality, in amounts that may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses related to its cash and cash equivalents and does not believe that it is subject to unusual credit risk beyond the normal credit risk associated with commercial banking relationships. At December 31, 2019 and 2018, all of the Company's cash and cash equivalents were held at one accredited financial institution.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Certain assets and liabilities of the Company are carried at fair value under GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy, of which the first two are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable:

 

·Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

·Level 2—Observable inputs (other than Level 1 quoted prices), such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

·Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity that are significant to determining the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.

 

The carrying values of the Company’s assets and liabilities approximate their fair values.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable are derived from products and services delivered to customers and are stated at their net realizable value. Each month, the Company reviews its receivables on a customer-by-customer basis and evaluates whether an allowance for doubtful accounts is necessary based on any known or perceived collection issues. Any balances that are eventually deemed uncollectible are written off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company determined an allowance for doubtful accounts was not necessary.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market and accounted for using the specific identification cost method. As of December 31, 2018, inventory consisted of kitchen equipment purchased from the Company’s suppliers.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Prior to the adoption of ASC 606, in 2018 the Company recognized revenue when it was realized or realizable and earned.  The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the product has been shipped or the services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.

 

The Company adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and its related amendments (collectively known as “ASC 606”), effective January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition approach applied to all contracts. Therefore, the reported results for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 reflect the application of ASC 606. There were no cumulative impacts that were made.

 

ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers.

 

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements: 1) identify the contract with a customer; 2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; 3) determine the transaction price; 4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and 5) recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied. To date, the Company derives its revenue from hardware and food sales.

Collaboration Agreements

 

Per ASC Topic 808-10-15-5, a collaborative arrangement within the scope of this ASC Topic 606 may be partially within the scope of other Topics, including, but not limited to, Topic 606 on revenue from contracts with customers. A collaborative arrangement is partially within the scope of Topic 606 if a unit of account, identified as a promised good or service (or bundle of goods or services) that is distinct within the collaborative arrangement is with a customer. An entity shall apply the guidance in Topic 606 to a unit of account that is within the scope of that Topic, including the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure requirements. If a portion of a distinct bundle of goods or services is not with a customer, the unit of account is not within the scope of Topic 606.

 

For a collaborative arrangement that is wholly or partially outside the scope of other Topics, including Topic 606, the unit of account, recognition, and measurement for the unit(s) of account outside the scope of other Topics, including Topic 606, shall be based on an analogy to authoritative accounting literature or, if there is no appropriate analogy, a reasonable, rational, and consistently applied accounting policy election.

 

Per ASC 808-10-45-1, participants in a collaborative arrangement shall report costs incurred and revenue generated from transactions with third parties (that is, parties that do not participate in the arrangement) in each entity’s respective income statement pursuant to the guidance on principal versus agent considerations.

 

Concentrations

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, one related party customer accounted for 81% of the Company’s revenues. As of December 31, 2019, two related party customers accounted for 100% of the Company’s accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2018, one related party customer accounted for 100% of the Company’s accounts receivable.

 

The Company is dependent on third-party vendors to supply inventory and products for research and development activities and parts for building products. In particular, the Company relies and expects to continue to rely on a small number of vendors. The loss of one of these vendors may have a negative short-term impact on the Company’s operations; however, the Company believes there are acceptable substitute vendors that can be utilized longer-term.

 

Advertising and Promotion

 

Advertising and promotional costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Research and Development Costs

 

Costs incurred in the research and development of the Company’s products are expensed as incurred.

The loss of one of these vendors may have a negative short-term impact on the Company’s operations; however, the Company believes there are acceptable substitute vendors that can be utilized longer-term.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using tax rates expected to be in effect during the years in which the basis differences reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is unlikely that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. We assess our income tax positions and record tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon our evaluation of the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date. In accordance with ASC 740-10, for those tax positions where there is a greater than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, our policy will be to record the largest amount of tax benefit that is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. For those income tax positions where there is less than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, no tax benefit will be recognized in the financial statements.

Net Loss per Share

 

Net earnings or loss per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding shares subject to redemption or forfeiture. The Company presents basic and diluted net earnings or loss per share. Diluted net earnings or loss per share reflect the actual weighted average of common shares issued and outstanding during the period, adjusted for potentially dilutive securities outstanding. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of the diluted net loss per share if their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, there were no potentially dilutive securities.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This ASU requires a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability under most operating leases in its balance sheet. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its financial statements.

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2018-07”). ASU 2018-07 eliminates the separate accounting model for nonemployee share-based payment awards and generally requires companies to account for share-based payment transactions with nonemployees in the same way as share-based payment transactions with employees. The accounting remains different for attribution, which represents how the equity-based payment cost is recognized over the vesting period, and a contractual term election for valuing nonemployee equity share options. ASU 2018-07 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Company has adopted this standard effective January 1, 2019.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and has issued subsequent amendments to this guidance. This new standard will replace all current guidance on this topic and eliminate all industry-specific guidance. The new revenue recognition standard provides a unified model to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration for which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 31, 2018. The standard may be applied either retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company has adopted this standard effective January 1, 2019.

 

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements. As new accounting pronouncements are issued, the Company will adopt those that are applicable under the circumstances.

 

4.COLLABORATION AGREEMENT

 

In 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with a related party for a dark kitchen concept on food sales. Per evaluation of ASC 606 and ASC 808, the Company determined that the arrangement is a collaboration rather than a contract with a customer. The related party does not obtain goods or services that are the output of the Company’s ordinary activities in exchange for consideration. Each party is an active participant and subject to both the risks and rewards contingent on the activity’s commercial success.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded a receivable from the related party for revenue and cost-sharing purposes. This type of consideration is not within the scope of any Topic, nor does any Topic apply by analogy; therefore, the Company should apply an accounting policy election to evaluate each part of the receivable based on the nature of the associated activity. The portion of the receivable related to the Company’s share of revenue would be treated as an increase to collaboration revenue, whereas the portion of the receivable reimbursing the Company would be a reduction of cost of revenue.

 

The Company’s collaboration revenue and its associated cost of revenue should be presented on a net basis because, under ASC 606, the Company is considered an agent in sales transactions with third parties. The Company can apply ASC 606 only by analogy because the related party is not a customer. Because ASC 606 is applied by analogy, net collaboration revenue must be presented separately from revenue from contracts with customers.

6.STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

As of December 31, 2019, the Company's certificate of incorporation, as amended and restated, authorized the Company to issue two classes of stock: Preferred Stock and Common Stock. The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock and 10,000,000 shares of common stock. Both classes of stock have a par value of $0.0001 per share. The Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of common stock.

 

As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, there were no shares of Preferred Stock issued or outstanding.

 

The holders of each class of stock shall have the following rights and preferences:

 

Voting

 

The holders of Preferred are entitled to vote, together with the holders of common stock as a single class, on all matters submitted to stockholders for a vote and have the right to vote the number of shares equal to the number of shares of common stock into which each share of Preferred Stock could convert on the record date for determination of stockholders entitled to vote.

 

Dividends

 

The holders of Preferred Stock and common stock shall be entitled to receive, on a pari passu basis, when and as declared by the Board of Directors, out of any assets of the Company legally available therefor, such dividends as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors.

Liquidation

 

In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or deemed liquidation event, the Preferred stockholders shall be entitled to a liquidation preference prior to common stockholders.

 

Redemption

 

No class of stock shall have any redemption rights.

 

Stock Transactions

 

In December 2017, the Company issued to its founder and outside investors a total of 626,801 shares of common stock at $0.50 per share for total proceeds of $313,337.

 

During March 2018, the Company issued 2,373,199 shares of common stock to a related party for total proceeds of $200.

 

These stock issuances were conducted under terms of a shareholder agreement, which includes restrictions on transfer and a Company repurchase option if certain triggering events occur, but contains no vesting provisions.

 

As of both December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company had 3,000,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

 

7.INCOME TAXES

 

Deferred taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax purposes. The differences relate primarily to cash to accrual differences and net operating loss carryforwards. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company had net deferred tax assets before valuation allowance of $67,623 and $55,625, respectively. The following table presents the deferred tax assets and liabilities by source:

 

   December 31, 
   2019   2018 
Deferred tax assets:          
Net operating loss carryforwards  $78,894   $63,554 
Deferred tax liabilities   (11,631)   (7,929)
Valuation allowance   (67,263)   (55,625)
Net deferred tax assets  $-   $- 

 

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. The Company assessed the need for a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets and determined a full valuation allowance is required due to taxable losses for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, cumulative losses through December 31, 2019, and no history of generating taxable income. Therefore, valuation allowances of $67,623 and $55,625 were recorded as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Valuation allowance increased by $11,638 and $55,625 during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Deferred tax assets were calculated using the Company’s combined effective tax rate, which it estimated to be 28.0%. The effective rate is reduced to 0% for 2019 and 2018 due to the full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets.

 

The Company’s ability to utilize net operating loss carryforwards will depend on its ability to generate adequate future taxable income. At December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future taxable income in the amounts of $280,661 and $226,089.

 

The Company has evaluated its income tax positions and has determined that it does not have any uncertain tax positions. The Company will recognize interest and penalties related to any uncertain tax positions through its income tax expense.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

In December 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was enacted into law and the new legislation contains several key tax provisions that affected the Company, including a reduction of the corporate income tax rate to 21% effective January 1, 2018, among others. The Company is required to recognize the effect of the tax law changes in the period of enactment, such as determining the transition tax, remeasuring deferred tax assets and liabilities, as well as reassessing the net realizability of our deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Company used the new tax rates in calculating its 2018 deferred tax assets.

 

The Company may in the future become subject to federal, state and local income taxation though it has not been since its inception, other than minimum state tax. The Company is not presently subject to any income tax audit in any taxing jurisdiction, though its 2017-2019 tax years remain open to examination.

 

8.RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Refer to Note 4 for the Company’s collaboration agreement with a related party. The Company’s net revenue and related accounts receivable are primarily with this related entity, which is owned by an investor of the Company.

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

  

Future Labs I, Inc. (the “Company”), doing business as BentoBots, is a corporation formed on November 30, 2017 under the laws of Delaware. The Company was formed to sell robotic kitchen equipment. The Company is headquartered in Santa Monica, California.

 

The Company’s activities since inception have consisted primarily of formation activities and preparations to raise capital. Once the Company commences its planned principal operations, it will incur significant additional expenses. The Company is dependent upon additional capital resources for the commencement of its planned principal operations and is subject to significant risks and uncertainties; including failing to secure funding to operationalize the Company’s planned operations or failing to profitably operate the business.

 

2. GOING CONCERN

 

The Company has evaluated whether there are certain conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated profits since inception, incurred net losses and cash used in operating activities. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $288,723. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, which it has not been able to accomplish to date, and/or to obtain additional capital financing. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities.

 

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The Company’s fiscal year is December 31.

 

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

 

The accompanying balance sheet as of June 30, 2020 and the statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 are unaudited. The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited annual financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2020 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. The financial data and other information disclosed in these notes related to the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 are also unaudited. The results for the six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020, any other interim periods, or any future year or period.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the 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. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these financial statements include, but are not limited to, the valuations of common stock and stock options. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known trends and other market-specific or other relevant factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates when there are changes in circumstances, facts and experience. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company generally maintains balances in various operating accounts at financial institutions that management believes to be of high credit quality, in amounts that may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses related to its cash and cash equivalents and does not believe that it is subject to unusual credit risk beyond the normal credit risk associated with commercial banking relationships. At December 31, 2019 and 2018, all of the Company's cash and cash equivalents were held at one accredited financial institution.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Certain assets and liabilities of the Company are carried at fair value under GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy, of which the first two are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable:

 

  · Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

  · Level 2—Observable inputs (other than Level 1 quoted prices), such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

  · Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity that are significant to determining the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.

 

The carrying values of the Company’s assets and liabilities approximate their fair values.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable are derived from products and services delivered to customers and are stated at their net realizable value. Each month, the Company reviews its receivables on a customer-by-customer basis and evaluates whether an allowance for doubtful accounts is necessary based on any known or perceived collection issues. Any balances that are eventually deemed uncollectible are written off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company determined an allowance for doubtful accounts was not necessary.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market and accounted for using the specific identification cost method.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers.

 

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements: 1) identify the contract with a customer; 2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; 3) determine the transaction price; 4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and 5) recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied. To date, the Company derives its revenue from hardware.

Collaboration Agreements

 

Per ASC Topic 808-10-15-5, a collaborative arrangement within the scope of this ASC Topic 606 may be partially within the scope of other Topics, including, but not limited to, Topic 606 on revenue from contracts with customers. A collaborative arrangement is partially within the scope of Topic 606 if a unit of account, identified as a promised good or service (or bundle of goods or services) that is distinct within the collaborative arrangement is with a customer. An entity shall apply the guidance in Topic 606 to a unit of account that is within the scope of that Topic, including the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure requirements. If a portion of a distinct bundle of goods or services is not with a customer, the unit of account is not within the scope of Topic 606.

 

For a collaborative arrangement that is wholly or partially outside the scope of other Topics, including Topic 606, the unit of account, recognition, and measurement for the unit(s) of account outside the scope of other Topics, including Topic 606, shall be based on an analogy to authoritative accounting literature or, if there is no appropriate analogy, a reasonable, rational, and consistently applied accounting policy election.

 

Per ASC 808-10-45-1, participants in a collaborative arrangement shall report costs incurred and revenue generated from transactions with third parties (that is, parties that do not participate in the arrangement) in each entity’s respective income statement pursuant to the guidance on principal versus agent considerations.

 

Advertising and Promotion

 

Advertising and promotional costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Research and Development Costs

 

Costs incurred in the research and development of the Company’s products are expensed as incurred.

 

Concentrations

 

The Company is dependent on third-party vendors to supply inventory and products for research and development activities and parts for building products. In particular, the Company relies and expects to continue to rely on a small number of vendors. The loss of one of these vendors may have a negative short-term impact on the Company’s operations; however, the Company believes there are acceptable substitute vendors that can be utilized longer-term.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using tax rates expected to be in effect during the years in which the basis differences reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is unlikely that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. We assess our income tax positions and record tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon our evaluation of the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date. In accordance with ASC 740-10, for those tax positions where there is a greater than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, our policy will be to record the largest amount of tax benefit that is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. For those income tax positions where there is less than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, no tax benefit will be recognized in the financial statements.

Net Loss per Share

 

Net earnings or loss per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding shares subject to redemption or forfeiture. The Company presents basic and diluted net earnings or loss per share. Diluted net earnings or loss per share reflect the actual weighted average of common shares issued and outstanding during the period, adjusted for potentially dilutive securities outstanding. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of the diluted net loss per share if their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were no potentially dilutive securities.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This ASU requires a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability under most operating leases in its balance sheet. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has is currently evaluating the impact on its financial statements.

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2018-07”). ASU 2018-07 eliminates the separate accounting model for nonemployee share-based payment awards and generally requires companies to account for share-based payment transactions with nonemployees in the same way as share-based payment transactions with employees. The accounting remains different for attribution, which represents how the equity-based payment cost is recognized over the vesting period, and a contractual term election for valuing nonemployee equity share options. ASU 2018-07 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Company has adopted this standard effective January 1, 2019.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and has issued subsequent amendments to this guidance. This new standard will replace all current guidance on this topic and eliminate all industry-specific guidance. The new revenue recognition standard provides a unified model to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration for which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 31, 2018. The standard may be applied either retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company has adopted this standard effective January 1, 2019.

 

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements. As new accounting pronouncements are issued, the Company will adopt those that are applicable under the circumstances.

4. COLLABORATION AGREEMENT

 

In 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with a related party for the initial sale of the Company’s developed hardware. Per evaluation of ASC 606 and ASC 808, the Company determined that the arrangement is a collaboration rather than a contract with a customer. The related party does not obtain goods or services that are the output of the Company’s ordinary activities in exchange for consideration. Each party is an active participant and subject to both the risks and rewards contingent on the activity’s commercial success.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded a receivable from the related party for revenue and cost-sharing purposes. This type of consideration is not within the scope of any Topic, nor does any Topic apply by analogy; therefore, the Company should apply an accounting policy election to evaluate each part of the receivable based on the nature of the associated activity. The portion of the receivable related to the Company’s share of revenue would be treated as an increase to collaboration revenue, whereas the portion of the receivable reimbursing the Company would be a reduction of cost of revenue.

 

The Company’s collaboration revenue and its associated cost of revenue should be presented on a net basis because, under ASC 606, the Company is considered an agent in sales transactions with third parties. The Company can apply ASC 606 only by analogy because the related party is not a customer. Because ASC 606 is applied by analogy, net collaboration revenue must be presented separately from revenue from contracts with customers.

 

5. LOAN RECEIVABLE, RELAED PARTY

 

From March to June 2020, the Company provided a loan to a related party, Future Labs VII, Inc. for $32,700. The loans is unsecured. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized interest income of $121.
