Note 1. The Company and Significant Accounting Policies.

 

Organizational Background:

 

Virtual Crypto Technologies, Inc., f/k/a Emerald Medical Applications Corp. (the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”), was incorporated in the State of Ohio in 1989 under a predecessor name, Zaxis International, Inc. (“Zaxis”). On August 25, 1995, Zaxis merged with a subsidiary of The InFerGene Company, a Delaware corporation, which entity changed its name to Zaxis International, Inc. and the Company was reincorporated in Delaware under the name of Zaxis International, Inc. On December 30, 2014, Zaxis entered into an agreement with Emerald Medical Applications Ltd., a private limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (“Emerald Israel”).

 

On March 16, 2015, Zaxis and Emerald Israel executed the Share Exchange Agreement, which closed on July 14, 2015 (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) and Emerald Israel became the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary. Emerald Israel was engaged in the business of developing Emerald Israel’s DermaCompare technology and the development, sale and service of imaging solutions utilizing its DermaCompare software for use in derma imaging and analytics for the detection of skin cancer.

 

During the fourth quarter of 2015, in connection with the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company changed its name to Emerald Medical Applications Corp. The Share Exchange Agreement was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. As a result, the historical financial statements of the Company were replaced with the historical financial statements of Emerald Israel. Reference is made to the disclosure under “Cessation of Former Operations” below.

 

New Business Developments

 

On January 17, 2018, the Company formed a new wholly-owned subsidiary in Israel, Virtual Crypto Technologies Ltd. (the “New Subsidiary”), to develop and market software and hardware products facilitating, allowing and supporting purchase and/or sale of cryptocurrencies through ATMs, tablets, personal computers and/or mobile devices. Reference is made to the disclosure under “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operations” located below in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

Cessation of Former Operations

 

On January 29, 2018, the Company ceased the DermaCompare operations of its former subsidiary, Emerald Israel, and on May 2, 2018, the District Court of Lod, Israel issued a winding-up order for Emerald Israel and nominated an Israeli advocate (attorney) as a special executor for Emerald Israel. To the extent that the liquidation procedure yields proceeds in excess of Emerald Israel’s current obligations, the first $250,000 of such excess will be distributed to the previous stockholders of the Company’s preferred stock (see Note 3) and any excess thereafter, to the Company. However, based on the Company’s current best estimate, it is not anticipated that any such excess proceeds will be achieved. See Note 6. Discontinued Operations.

 

Going Concern

 

The Company has incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities in relation to its DermaCompare operations, since inception. While the Company raised approximately $2 million in the first nine months of 2018 to fund the operations of its New Subsidiary, the Company will require additional capital resources in order to support the commercialization of the New Subsidiary’s technology and operations and maintain its research and development activities related to the New Subsidiary’s technology. The Company is addressing its liquidity needs by seeking additional funding from public and/or private sources. There are no assurances, however, that the Company will be able to obtain an adequate level of financial resources that are required for the Company’s short and long-term requirements, or at all.

 

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies:

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly- owned subsidiary, the New Subsidiary, prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. The financial statements presented herein have not been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm but include all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the period. However, these results are not necessarily indicative of results for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions for the reporting periods covered by the financial statements. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates.

 

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, filed with the SEC on April 17, 2018 (the “Annual Report”).

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company assesses the adoption impacts of recently issued accounting standards by the Financial Accounting Standards Board on its financial statements. Following are newly issued standards or material updates to the Company’s previous assessments from the Annual Report:

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued a new standard to achieve a consistent application of revenue recognition within the U.S., resulting in a single revenue model to be applied by reporting companies under GAAP. Under the new model, recognition of revenue occurs when a customer obtains control of the promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the new standard requires that reporting companies disclose the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The new standard is effective with respect to the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2018; early adoption is prohibited. The new standard is required to be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying it recognized at the date of initial application. As the Company has not incurred revenues to date, it does not expect the new standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued a new lease accounting standard requiring the recognition of lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet. This standard is effective beginning in the first quarter of 2019; early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. As the Company currently is not a party to any leasing arrangement, it does not expect the new standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” With respect to assets measured at amortized cost, such as held-to-maturity assets, the update requires presentation of the amortized cost net of a credit loss allowance. The update eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold that was previously required prior to recognizing a credit loss on financial instruments. The credit loss estimate can now reflect an entity’s current estimate of all future expected credit losses as opposed to the previous standard, when an entity only considered past events and current conditions. With respect to available for sale debt securities, the update requires that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down. The update is effective beginning in the first quarter of 2020; early adoption is permitted. As the Company has insignificant receivable balances, the Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, which includes Part I “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features” and Part II “Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Non-Controlling Interests With a Scope Exception”. The ASU makes limited changes to the Board’s guidance on classifying certain financial instruments as either liabilities or equity. The ASU’s objective is to improve (1) the accounting for instruments with “down-round” provisions and (2) the readability of the guidance in ASC 480 on distinguishing liabilities from equity by replacing the indefinite deferral of certain pending content with scope exceptions. This standard is effective beginning in the first quarter of 2019; early adoption is permitted. The Company early adopted the standard, retrospectively, for each prior period presented in the financial statements included elsewhere herein.

 

Accounting Standard Update 2018-07, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update 2018-07, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (ASU 2018-07). ASU 2018-07 aligns the measurement and classification guidance for share-based payments to nonemployees with the guidance for share-based payments to employees, with certain exceptions.

 

Consistent with the accounting requirement for employee share-based payment awards, nonemployee share-based payment awards within the scope of Topic 718 will be measured at grant-date fair value of the equity instruments that an entity is obligated to issue when the goods has been delivered or the service has been rendered and any other conditions necessary to earn the right to benefit from the instruments have been satisfied. Equity-classified nonemployee share-based payment awards will be measured at the grant date.

 

With respect to awards with performance conditions, ASU 2018-07 concludes that, consistent with the accounting for employee share-based payment awards, an entity will consider the probability of satisfying performance conditions when nonemployee share-based payment awards contain such conditions.

 

ASU 2018-07 also requires that the classification of equity classified nonemployee share-based payment awards will continue to be subject to the requirements of Topic 718 unless the award was modified after the goods has been delivered, the service has been rendered, any other conditions necessary to earn the right to benefit from the instruments have been satisfied, and the nonemployee is no longer providing goods or services. This eliminates the requirement to reassess classification of such awards upon vesting.

 

In addition, ASU 2018-07 includes certain Non-public Entity-Specific Amendments.

 

ASU 2018-07 is effective for Public entities in annual periods beginning after 15 December 2018, and interim periods within those years (first quarter of 2019 for the Company). Early adoption is permitted, including in an interim period, but not before an entity adopts the new revenue guidance (which was adopted by the Company in its interim financial statements for 2018).

 

An entity should only remeasure liability-classified awards that have not been settled by the date of adoption and equity-classified awards for which a measurement date has not been established through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. Upon transition, the entity is required to measure these nonemployee awards at fair value as of the adoption date.

 

The Company is evaluating the impact of ASU 2018-07 on its financial statements.
