NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Interim Financial Information – The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  Accordingly, they are condensed and do not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and are of a normal recurring nature.  The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018, may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2018.

 

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. The accounting policies set forth in those annual financial statements are the same as the accounting policies utilized in the preparation of these financial statements, except as modified for appropriate interim financial statement presentation.

 

Principles of Consolidation — The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and include operations and balances of NewBridge Global Ventures, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries NABUFIT Denmark, NABUFIT China, NABUFIT IP, and Elevated.  Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. NABUFIT China and NABUFIT IP had no activity.  All three NABUFIT subsidiaries were sold to an employee of NABUFIT Denmark effective August 30, 2017.  As a result of this action, the disclosures reflect these operations as discontinued and prior year financial information has been restated to reflect this accounting treatment.  The subsidiaries were consolidated up through August 30, 2017, the date they were sold.  Elevated was formed February 14, 2018.

 

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  

 

Fair Value – The fair values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying amounts at the reporting date.

 

Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations – The functional currency of NABUFIT Denmark was the Danish Krone (DKK), the functional currency of NABUFIT China was the China Yuan Renminbi (CNY), and the functional currency of NewBridge, Elevated and the reporting currency is U.S. dollars (USD).  The Company translated the assets and liabilities of NABUFIT Denmark and NABUFIT China from the functional currency to U.S. dollars at the appropriate spot rates as of the balance sheet date. Equity balances were translated using historical exchange rates. Changes in the carrying value of these assets and liabilities attributable to fluctuations in spot rates were recognized in foreign currency translation adjustment, a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Income statement accounts were translated using the average exchange rate during the period.

 

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is different from the functional currency must first be remeasured from the applicable currency to the functional currency. The effect of this remeasurement process was recognized translation adjustments in our statement of comprehensive loss.

 

The Company had no foreign currency transaction gains or losses during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents – The balance in cash and cash equivalents consists of cash reserves held in bank accounts. The Company maintains cash balances in bank accounts that, at times, exceed federally insured limits.  The Company has not experienced any losses in these accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risk with respect to cash.

 

Revenue Recognition – The Company adopted Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers with a date of initial application of January 1, 2018.  Since the Company had no revenue prior to 2018, the adoption of this standard had no effect on prior periods.  The Company generates revenue through consulting arrangements.  The revenue will be recognized at the point in time that the service is performed and delivered to the customer.  This policy will be modified if necessary as the Company grows and develops multiple revenue sources.

 

Software Development Costs – The Company expenses software development costs until the Company has a working business model for the software.

 

Income Taxes – The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740, Income Taxes, which requires the use of the asset and liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes.  We recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets based on the differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future years.

 

All allowances against deferred income tax assets are recorded in whole or in part, when it is more likely than not those deferred income tax assets will not be realized.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

A valuation allowance is required to the extent it is more-likely-than-not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized. ASC 740 also requires reporting of taxes based on tax positions that meet a more-likely-than-not standard and are measured at the amount that is more-likely-than-not to be realized. Differences between financial and tax reporting which do not meet this threshold are required to be recorded as unrecognized tax benefits.

 

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share – Basic loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period giving effect to potentially dilutive common stock equivalents.  As of March 31, 2018, the Company had 1,017,086 common stock equivalents outstanding.    

 

New Accounting Pronouncements – The Company does not expect the adoption of any recent accounting pronouncements to have a material impact on its financial statements.
