SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

Our policy is to prepare our financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Prior to September 20, 2021 we operated the Company on a March 31, fiscal year end. Effective September 30, 2021 we changed our fiscal year to December 31.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations (Regulation S-X) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be expected for the filing of our December 31, 2022 Form 10-K. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2021 consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Investview, Inc., and our wholly owned subsidiaries: iGenius, LLC (formerly Kuvera, LLC), Kuvera France S.A.S (through its closure date in June of 2021), Apex Tek, LLC (formerly Razor Data, LLC), SAFETek, LLC (formerly WealthGen Global, LLC), S.A.F.E. Management, LLC, United Games, LLC, United League, LLC, Investment Tools & Training, LLC, iGenius Global LTD (formerly Kuvera (N.I.) LTD), Investview Financial Group Holdings, LLC, and Investview MTS, LLC. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Financial Statement Reclassification

 

Certain account balances from prior periods have been reclassified in these consolidated financial statements to conform to current period classifications.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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.

Foreign Exchange

 

We have consolidated the accounts of Kuvera France S.A.S. into our consolidated financial statements. The operations of Kuvera France S.A.S. were conducted in France through its closure date in June of 2021 and its functional currency is the Euro. Subsequent to June 2021 we maintained a Euro bank account in France that had minimal transactions.

 

Prior to June 2021, the financial statements of Kuvera France S.A.S. were prepared using their functional currency and were translated into U.S. dollars (“USD”). Assets and liabilities were translated into USD at the applicable exchange rates at period-end. Stockholders’ equity was translated using historical exchange rates. Revenue and expenses were translated at the average exchange rates for the period. Any translation adjustments were included as foreign currency translation adjustments in accumulated other comprehensive income in our stockholders’ equity (deficit).

 

Subsequent to June 2021, we translated all transactions in our Euro bank account into USD and translated the ending bank balance into USD at the applicable exchange rate at period-end.

 

The following rates were used to translate our Euro bank account into USD at the following balance sheet dates.

 

   March 31,
2022
   December 31,
2021
 
Euro to USD   1.1074    1.1371 

 

The following rates were used to translate the accounts of Kuvera France S.A.S. into USD for the following operating periods.

 

   2022   2021 
   Three Months Ended March 31, 
   2022   2021 
Euro to USD   1.1219    1.2052 

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially expose us to concentration of credit risk include cash, accounts receivable, and advances. We place our cash and temporary cash investments with credit quality institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit of $250,000. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, cash balances that exceeded FDIC limits were $23,637,360 and $19,336,350, respectively. We have not experienced significant losses relating to these concentrations in the past.

 

Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

 

For purposes of reporting cash flows, we consider all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had no cash equivalents.

 

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the balance sheet that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the statement of cash flows.

 

   March 31,
2022
   December 31,

Receivables

 

Receivables are carried at net realizable value, representing the outstanding balance less an allowance for doubtful accounts based on a review of all outstanding amounts. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by regularly evaluating individual receivables and receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received. We had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $719,342 as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

 

Fixed Assets

 

Fixed assets are stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. When retired or otherwise disposed, the carrying value and accumulated depreciation of the fixed asset is removed from its respective accounts and the net difference less any amount realized from disposition is reflected in earnings. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs which do not extend the useful lives of the related assets are expensed as incurred.

 

Fixed assets were made up of the following at each balance sheet date:

 

   Estimated Useful Life
(years)
  March 31,
2022
   December 31,
2021
 
Furniture, fixtures, and equipment  10  $82,942   $82,942 
Computer equipment  3   15,241    15,241 
Leasehold improvements  Remaining Lease Term   40,528    40,528 
Data processing equipment  3   16,506,939    10,638,619 
Construction in progress  N/A   529,806    391,583 
       17,175,456    11,168,913 
Accumulated depreciation      (5,390,329)   (4,486,036)
Net book value     $11,785,127   $6,682,877 

 

Total depreciation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, was $909,955 and $659,179, respectively. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022 we sold assets with a total net book value of $4,008 for cash of $28,308, therefore recognized a gain on disposal of assets of $24,300.

 

Long-Lived Assets – Intangible Assets & License Agreement

 

We account for our cryptocurrencies, intangible assets and long-term license agreement in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 350-30, General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill, and ASC Subtopic 360-10-05, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. ASC Subtopic 350-30 requires assets to be measured based on the fair value of the consideration given or the fair value of the assets (or net assets) acquired, whichever is more clearly evident and, thus, more reliably measurable. Our cryptocurrencies are deemed to have an indefinite useful life; therefore, amounts are not amortized, but rather are assessed for impairment as further discussed in our impairment policy. Under ASC Subtopic 350-30 any intangible asset with a useful life is required to be amortized over that life and the useful life is to be evaluated every reporting period to determine whether events or circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. If the estimate of useful life is changed the remaining carrying amount of the intangible asset is amortized prospectively over the revised remaining useful life. Costs of internally developing, maintaining, or restoring intangible assets are recognized as an expense when incurred.

 

We hold cryptocurrency-denominated assets and include them in our consolidated balance sheet as other assets. The value of our cryptocurrencies as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were $2,359,591 ($2,229,943 current and $129,648 restricted long term) and $2,141,093 ($2,018,324 current and $122,769 restricted long term), respectively. Cryptocurrencies purchased or received for payment from customers are recorded in accordance with ASC 350-30 and cryptocurrencies awarded to the Company through its mining activities ($3,576,973 and $8,337,359 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively) are accounted for in connection with the Company’s revenue recognition policy. The use of cryptocurrencies is accounted for in accordance with the first in first out method of accounting. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 we recorded realized gains (losses) on our cryptocurrency transactions of $(182,789) and $524,212, respectively.

 

In June of 2018 we purchased United Games, LLC and United League, LLC and recorded the transaction as a business combination. Intangible assets acquired in the business combination were recorded at fair value on the date of acquisition and were being amortized on a straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. The intangible assets were impaired during the year ended March 31, 2021 due to a lack of recoverability.

On March 22, 2021, we entered into Securities Purchase Agreement to acquire the operating assets and intellectual property rights of MPower Trading Systems LLC, a company controlled and partially owned by David B. Rothrock and James R. Bell, two of our board members (see NOTE 12). As a result, we obtained Prodigio, a proprietary software-based trading platform with applications within the brokerage industry, which was valued at $7,240,000 and recorded on our balance sheet as an intangible asset. The intangible asset will have a definite life, however, as of the date of this filing the software has not yet been placed in service, therefore a useful life had not yet been determined and no amortization was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

We have adopted ASC Subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360-10”). ASC 360-10 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable or when the historical cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. Events relating to recoverability may include significant unfavorable changes in business conditions, recurring losses, or a forecasted inability to achieve break-even operating results over an extended period.

 

We evaluate the recoverability of long-lived assets based upon future net cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual disposition. Should impairment in value be indicated, the carrying value of intangible assets will be adjusted and an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and fair value or disposable value.

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2022 no impairment was recorded. During the quarter ended March 31, 2021 we impaired our intangible assets with a cost basis of $991,000 due to the lack of recoverability. We had recorded accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortization of $456,562 for the impaired assets through the date of impairment, therefore we recorded impairment expense of $534,438 for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, based on our principal or, in the absence of a principal, most advantageous market for the specific asset or liability.

 

U.S. generally accepted accounting principles provide for a three-level hierarchy of inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value, defined as follows:

 

  Level 1: Inputs that are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity can access.
     
  Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability, including:

 

  - quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
  - quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active;
  - inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and
  - inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

 

  Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable and reflect management’s own assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances (e.g., internally derived assumptions surrounding the timing and amount of expected cash flows).

 

Our financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and debt. We have determined that the book value of our outstanding financial instruments as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, approximates the fair value due to their short-term nature or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates.

Revenue Recognition

 

Subscription Revenue

 

Most of our revenue is generated by subscription sales and payment is received at the time of purchase. We recognize subscription revenue in accordance with ASC 606-10 where revenue is measured based on a consideration specified in a contract with a customer and recognized when we satisfy the performance obligation specified in each contract. Our performance obligation is to provide services over a fixed subscription period; therefore, we recognize revenue ratably over the subscription period and deferred revenue is recorded for the portion of the subscription period subsequent to each reporting date. Additionally, we offer a designated trial period to first time subscription customers, during which a full refund can be requested if a customer does not wish to continue with the subscription. Revenues are deferred during the trial period as collection is not probable until that time has passed. Revenues are presented net of refunds, sales incentives, credits, and known and estimated credit card chargebacks. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 our deferred revenues were $3,293,498 and $3,288,443, respectively.

 

Mining Revenue

 

Through our wholly owned subsidiary, SAFETek, LLC, we leased equipment under a sales-type lease through June of 2020. In June of 2020 we cancelled all leases and purchased all of the rights and obligations under the leases, which included obtaining ownership of all equipment. We use the equipment on blockchain networks to validate and add blocks of transactions to blockchain ledgers (commonly referred to as “mining”). As compensation for mining we are issued fees from processors and/or block rewards that are newly created cryptocurrency units granted to us. Our mining activities constitute our ongoing major and central operations of SAFETek, LLC. Because we do not have contracts, nor do we have customers associated with our mining revenue, we recognize revenue when fees and/or rewards are settled, or ultimately granted to us as a result of our mining activities.

 

Cryptocurrency Revenue

 

We generate revenue from the sale of cryptocurrency packages to our customers through an arrangement with third-party suppliers. The various packages include different amounts of coin with differing rates of returns and terms and, in some cases, include a product protection option that allows the purchaser to protect their initial purchase price. The protection allows the purchaser to obtain 50% of their purchase price at five years or 100% of their purchase price at ten years. Both the coin and the protection option are delivered by third-party suppliers.

 

We recognize cryptocurrency revenue in accordance with ASC 606-10 where revenue is measured based on a consideration specified in a contract with a customer and recognized when we satisfy the performance obligation specified in each contract. Our performance obligation is to arrange for the third-parties to provide coin and protection (if applicable) to our customers and payment is received from our customers at the time of order placement. All customers are given two weeks to request a refund, therefore we record a customer advance on our balance sheet upon receipt of payment. After the two weeks have passed from order placement, we request our third-party suppliers to deliver coin and protection (if applicable), at which time we recognize revenue and the amounts due to our suppliers on our books. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 our customer advances related to cryptocurrency revenue were $249,433 and $75,702, respectively.

Fee Revenue

 

We generate fee revenue from our customers through SAFE Management, our subsidiary licensed as a Registered Investment Advisor and Commodities Trading Advisor. We recognize fee revenue in accordance with ASC 606-10 where revenue is measured based on a consideration specified in a contract with a customer and recognized when we satisfy the performance obligation specified in each contract. Our performance obligation is to deliver fully managed trading services to individuals who do not meet the requirements of Qualified Investors and who lack the time to trade for themselves. We recognize fee revenue as our performance obligation is met and we receive payment for such advisory fees in the month following recognition.

Advertising, Selling, and Marketing Costs

 

We expense advertising, selling, and marketing costs as incurred. Advertising, selling, and marketing costs include costs of promoting our product worldwide, including promotional events. Advertising, selling, and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, totaled $11,754 and $27,651, respectively.

Included in our costs of sales and services is amounts paid to our trading and market experts that provide financial education content and tools to our subscription customers and hosting fees that we pay to vendors to set up our mining equipment at third-party sites in order to generate mining revenue. Costs of sales and services for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, totaled $1,830,341 and $2,898,507, respectively.

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are recorded in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statement or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities, including operating losses and credit carryforwards, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.

 

Management judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, our deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowance recorded against our deferred tax assets. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the consideration of all available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Changes in assumptions in future periods may require we adjust our valuation allowance, which could materially impact our financial position and results of operations. The company recognizes the benefit of an uncertain tax position that it has taken or expects to take on its income tax return, if such a position is more likely than not to be sustained.

 

Net Income (Loss) per Share

 

We follow ASC subtopic 260-10, Earnings per Share (“ASC 260-10”), which specifies the computation, presentation, and disclosure requirements of earnings per share information. Basic income (loss) per share has been calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted income (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted during the period. Dilutive securities having an anti-dilutive effect on diluted earnings per share are excluded from the calculation.

 

The following table illustrates the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, where no potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the computation:

 SCHEDULE OF DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE

   March 31,

Net income (loss)  $2,379,029   $4,941,561 
Less: preferred dividends   (204,835)   (124,506)
Add: interest expense on convertible debt   244,755    226,140 
Net income available to common shareholders for dilution purposes  $2,418,949   $5,043,195

Diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator)   3,760,410,856    3,710,787,154 
           
Diluted income per common share  $0.00   $0.00 

 

Lease Obligation

 

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in the operating lease right-of-use asset account, the operating lease liability, current account, and the operating lease liability, long term account in our balance sheet. Right-of-use assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.

 

Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. For leases in which the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. We have elected to not apply the recognition requirements of ASC 842 to short-term leases (leases with terms of twelve months or less). Lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for operating lease arrangements is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We have elected the practical expedient and will not separate non-lease components from lease components and will instead account for each separate lease component and non-lease component associated with the lease components as a single lease component.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method and is inclusive of any shipping and tax costs.

 

Inventory was made up of the following at each balance sheet date:

 

           
   March 31,
2022
   December 31,
2021
 
Raw materials  $55,570   $                   - 
Finished goods   -    - 
 Inventory Net  $55,570   $- 

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2022 we acquired raw materials to be used for future operations.
