Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of March 31, 2023, our current liabilities exceeded our current and total assets by $254,093 and we had an accumulated deficit of $49,970,898. The Company currently does not have the cash resources to meet its operating commitments for the next twelve months and expects to have ongoing requirements for capital investment or debt to implement its business plan. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon, among other things, raising additional capital. The Company has obtained operating funds primarily from the issuance of convertible debt. Management believes this funding will continue and will provide the additional cash needed to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be successful in accomplishing its objectives. Without such additional capital we may be required to cease operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The significant accounting policies of the Company are disclosed in Note 2 to the Notes to Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 20, 2023. The following summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s interim financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements. Significant estimates made in preparing these financial statements include the estimate of useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, operating lease obligations, impairment of assets, the deferred tax valuation allowance, the fair value of stock options and derivative liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and of SCS, its wholly owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Intangible Assets

 

The identifiable intangible assets acquired in the SCS acquisition are amortized using the straight-line method over an estimated life of 5 years.

 

Derivative Liabilities

 

We have identified the conversion features of our convertible notes payable and certain stock options as derivatives. Where the number of common shares to be issued under these agreements is indeterminate, the Company has concluded that the equity environment is tainted, and all additional options, convertible debt and equity are included in the value of the derivatives. We estimate the fair value of the derivatives using the Black-Scholes pricing model and a multinomial lattice model based on projections of various potential future outcomes. We estimate the fair value of the derivative liabilities at the inception of the financial instruments, at the date of conversions to equity and at each reporting date, recording a derivative liability, debt discount, additional paid-in capital and a gain or loss on change in derivative liabilities as applicable. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements and probabilities of certain outcomes based on management projections. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management's judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, all convertible notes payable that created a tainted equity environment were extinguished; therefore, all derivative liabilities were eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments, require disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value.  As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we believe the amounts reported for cash, accounts payable, accounts payable – related party, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, accrued interest, notes payable and certain notes payable approximate fair value because of their short maturities.

 

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.  Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASC”) Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value.  The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

 

 

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

 

 

Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

 

 

Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

 

We measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. As of March 31, 2023, we had no liabilities measured at fair value.  Liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2022:

Revenue Recognition

 

We have adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606) pursuant to which revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:

 

 

·

identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;

 

·

identification of the performance obligations in the contract;

 

·

determination of the transaction price;

 

·

allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

 

·

recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

 

Through its wholly owned subsidiary, the Company acts as an intermediary or agent to facilitate a platform through which property owners market billboards to wireless telephone carriers for placement of wireless communications network equipment. Contracts have been signed among the Company, the property owner, and the wireless telephone operator.  Monthly payments are received by the Company from the wireless carriers, with the Company paying the property owner a percentage of revenues ranging from 70% to 85%.  The net amount is retained by the Company as consideration for its intermediary services and recorded as revenues in the accompanying statements of operations.

 

Lease Accounting

 

Pursuant to the underlying contracts, the Company does not own the property and equipment which is leased by the cell phone carriers but acts as an intermediary or agent between the property owner and the cell phone carriers.  Therefore, in accordance with ASC 840 and 841, “Leases,” the Company records revenues net of amounts received from cell phone carriers and payments made to property owners.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk, Major Customers, and Major Vendors

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company received payments from two cell phone carriers, with one carrier representing substantially all payments.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had one landlord receiving all Company payments for lease of billboard site locations.

 

Income (Loss) per Share

 

Basic net income or loss per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income or loss per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the dilutive potential common share equivalents then outstanding. Potential dilutive common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options to acquire common stock, using the treasury stock method and the average market price per share during the period, and shares issuable upon exercise of convertible notes payable.

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award granted using either the Black-Scholes option pricing model or a multinomial lattice model based on projections of various potential future outcomes and recognized over the period in which the award vests or straight-line. For stock awards no longer expected to vest, any previously recognized stock compensation expense is reversed in the period of termination. The stock-based compensation expense is included in general and administrative expenses.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

There were no new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and through the date of filing of this report that the Company believes will have a material impact on its financial statements.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the prior year periods have been reclassified to conform to the presentation for the current year periods.

 

3. CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

 

Convertible Promissory Note – $29,500 in Default

 

On March 14, 2013, we entered into an agreement to issue a 5% convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $29,500, which is convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to the lesser of $1.50 per share or the closing price per share of common stock recorded on the trading day immediately preceding the date of conversion. The note, with a principal balance of $29,500 as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, matured on March 14, 2015, and is currently in default.

 

Convertible Promissory Notes – Related Parties of $58,600

 

On December 31, 2012, we issued 5% convertible promissory notes to two employees in exchange for services rendered in the aggregate amount of $58,600. The notes are convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to the lesser of $2.00 per share or the closing price per share of common stock recorded on the trading day immediately preceding the date of conversion. We recorded a total debt discount of $57,050 related to the conversion feature of the notes, which has been fully amortized to interest expense, along with a derivative liability at inception. One of the notes with a principal balance of $25,980 as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 matured on December 31, 2014 and is currently in default. The maturity date of a second note with a principal balance of $32,620 as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 has been extended to December 31, 2023.

August 24, 2022 Convertible Promissory Note - $38,750

 

Effective August 24, 2022, the Company entered into a 12% convertible note with an institutional investor in the principal amount of $38,750 with a maturity date of August 24, 2023. The Company received net proceeds of $35,000 after payment of $3,750 in legal fees and fees to the lender. The lender, at its option after 180 days from the issuance of the note, may convert the unpaid principal balance of, and accrued interest on, the note into shares of the Company’s common stock at a 45% discount from the lowest trading price during the 20 trading days prior to conversion. The Company may prepay the note during the 180 days from the issuance of the note at a redemption premium of 150%. After the expiration of 180 days after issuance, the Company has no right of prepayment.  We recorded a debt discount of $35,316 related to the conversion feature of the note, along with a derivative liability at inception. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we issued the lender shares of our common stock in consideration for the conversion of principal of $38,750 and accrued interest of $2,221, extinguishing the debt in full. No gain or loss on extinguishment of debt was recorded since the conversion was completed within the terms of the convertible note.

 

Total accrued interest payable on notes payable was $53,616 and $53,212 as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

 

4. LONG-TERM CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

 

On January 7, 2021, the Company issued two long-term convertible notes payable, each in the principal amount of $500,000, in conjunction with the business acquisition of SCS.  The notes bear interest at an annual rate of 0.39% and mature January 7, 2026.  The notes were discounted to a principal balance of $0 and a debt discount of $1,000,000 was recorded at inception.  Amortization of the discount to interest expense was $49,288 during the three months ended March 31, 2023, resulting in a debt discount of $551,479 as of March 31, 2023.

 

At any time after December 31, 2021, each month, each holder of the Assigned Notes may convert the principal amount of the Assigned Note into a number of shares of the Company’s common stock not exceeding 5% of the total trade volume of the Company’s common stock publicly reported for the previous calendar month at a conversion price of $0.013 per share. Each Assigned Note also imposes an overall limitation on the number of conversions to common stock that the holder may affect such that it prohibits the holder from beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the total issued and outstanding common stock of the Company at any time that the Assigned Note is outstanding.

 

5. MEZZANINE

 

Series B Preferred Stock

 

On March 2, 2016, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation for its Series B Preferred Stock (the “Series B Certificate”) with the Secretary of State of Nevada designating 30,000 shares of its authorized preferred stock as Series B Preferred Stock. The shares of Series B Preferred Stock have a par value of $0.001 per share.

 

The total face value of this entire series is three million dollars ($3,000,000). Each share of Series B Preferred Stock has a stated face value of $100, and effective April 2, 2021, is convertible into shares of fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of the Company at $0.0015 per share.  The terms of the Series B Preferred Stock were amended effective March 31, 2021 to change the conversion price from a defined variable price to a fixed conversion price of $0.0015 per share.

Table of Contents

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the holder did not convert any shares of Series B Preferred Stock into shares of the Company’s common stock.  During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the holder converted a total of 221 shares of Series B Preferred Stock valued at $22,100 into 14,733,333 shares of the Company’s common stock.  There was no gain or loss on settlement of debt due to the conversions occurring within the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock.

 

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had 14,241 shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding, and recorded as mezzanine at face value of $1,424,100 due to certain default provisions requiring mandatory cash redemption that are outside the control of the Company. These shares were originally issued in March 2016 for the redemption and cancellation of $1,615,362 of convertible promissory notes and $264,530 of accrued interest payable.

 

The holders of outstanding shares of the Series B Preferred Stock (the "Series B Holders") are entitled to receive dividends pari passu with the holders of Common Stock, except upon a liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company, in which case the Series B Preferred Stock has a preference. Such dividends will be paid equally to all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock and Common Stock, on an as-if-converted basis with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Holders may elect to use the most favorable conversion price for the purpose of determining the as-if-converted number of shares.

 

In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, either voluntary or involuntary, the Series B Holder shall be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its shareholders upon such liquidation, whether such assets are capital or surplus of any nature, an amount equal to $100 for each such share of the Series B Preferred Stock (as adjusted for any combinations, consolidations, stock distributions, stock splits or stock dividends with respect to such shares), plus all dividends, if any, declared and unpaid thereon as of the date of such distribution, before any payment is made or any assets distributed to the holders of the Common Stock. After such payment, the remaining assets of the Company will be distributed to the holders of Common Stock.

 

Series E Preferred Stock

 

Effective April 2, 2021, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation with the State of Nevada designating 45,000 shares of its authorized preferred stock as Series E Preferred Stock. The shares of Series E Preferred Stock have a par value of $0.001 per share and a stated face value of $100 per share. Holders of the Series E Preferred Stock have the right, at any time, to convert shares of Series E Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.0015 per share.

 

On April 2, 2021, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with an accredited investor (the “Investor”), pursuant to which the Investor agreed to purchase up to 45,000 shares of the Company’s Series E Preferred Stock (the “Series E Preferred Stock”) at a purchase price of $100 per share. In accordance with the SPA, the Investor paid for 34,900 Series E Preferred Stock by surrendering to the Company for cancellation, $2,617,690 of principal, $826,566 of accrued interest, and $45,740 in fees through April 2, 2021 under various 10% convertible notes held by Investor.

 

As an inducement for the Investor entering into the SPA, the Company agreed that Investor will have the right, exercisable in its sole discretion, to purchase the remaining 10,100 of authorized shares of Series E Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $100 per share at any time until April 2, 2031.  During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Investor purchased a total of 1,720 shares of Series E Preferred Stock for cash of $172,000, the stated value of the shares.  During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Investor purchased a total of 1,200 shares of Series E Preferred Stock for cash of $120,000, the stated value of the shares.  As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had 42,320 and 40,600 shares of Series E Preferred Stock outstanding, respectively, recorded as mezzanine at face value $4,232,000 and $4,060,000, respectively, due to certain default provisions requiring mandatory cash redemption that are outside the control of the Company.

Table of Contents

 

The holders of outstanding Series E Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends pari passu with the holders of common stock, except upon a liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company, in which case the Shares have a preference. Such dividends will be paid equally to all outstanding Series E Preferred Stock and common stock, on an as-if-converted basis with respect to the Series E Preferred Stock.

 

In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, either voluntary or involuntary, holders of Shares shall be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its shareholders upon such liquidation, whether such assets are capital or surplus of any nature, an amount equal to $100 for each such share (as adjusted for any combinations, consolidations, stock distributions, stock splits or stock dividends with respect to such shares), plus all dividends, if any, declared and unpaid thereon as of the date of such distribution, after the payment of any distributions that may be required with respect to the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock, but before any payment is made or any assets distributed to the holders of common stock. After such payment, the remaining assets of the Company will be distributed to the holders of common stock.

 

If the assets to be distributed to holders of the Series E Preferred Stock are insufficient to permit the receipt by such holders of the full preferential amounts, then all of such assets will be distributed among such holders ratably in accordance with the number of such shares then held by each such holder.

 

Each share of Series E Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of the Company at a fixed conversion price of $0.0015 per share.

 

In no event will holders of Series E Preferred Stock be entitled to convert any such shares, such that upon conversion the sum of (1) the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the holder and its affiliates (other than shares of common stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Series E Preferred Stock or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other security of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to these limitations), and (2) the number of shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of Shares, would result in beneficial ownership by the holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of common stock. The limitations on conversion may be waived by the Holder upon, at the election of the holder of Shares, not less than 61 days prior notice to the Company, and the provisions of the conversion limitation shall continue to apply until such 61st day (or such later date, as determined by the holder of Shares, as may be specified in such notice of waiver).

 

Except as required by law, holder of Series E Preferred Stock are not entitled to vote, as a separate class or otherwise, on any matter presented to the stockholders of the Company for their action or consideration at any meeting of stockholders of the Company, provided, however, each holder of outstanding Share will be entitled, on the same basis as holders of common stock, to receive notice of such action or meeting and so long as any Shares remain outstanding, the Company will not, without first obtaining the approval of the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding Shares voting together as one class alter or change the rights, preferences or privileges of the Shares so as to affect materially and adversely such Shares.

 

6. CAPITAL STOCK

 

As of March 31, 2023, the Company’s authorized stock consisted of 2,000,000,000 shares of common stock, with a par value of $0.001 per share.  The Company is also authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, with a par value of $0.001 per share.  The rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of the preferred stock will be determined by the Board of Directors prior to issuance of such shares.

8. DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

 

The fair value of the Company’s derivative liabilities is estimated at the issuance date and is revalued at each subsequent reporting date. We estimate the fair value of derivative liabilities associated with our convertible notes payable and stock options using a multinomial lattice model based on projections of various potential future outcomes. Where the number of stock options or common shares to be issued under these agreements is indeterminate, the Company has concluded that the equity environment is tainted, and all additional stock options, convertible debt and equity are included in the value of the derivatives. 

 

The calculation input assumptions are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management’s judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liability will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, all convertible notes payable that created a tainted equity environment were extinguished; therefore, all derivative liabilities were eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The objective of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition is to allow investors to view the Company from management’s perspective, considering items that would have a material impact on future operations.  Certain statements below, and elsewhere in this report, are not related to historical results, and are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements present our expectations or forecasts of future events. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements frequently are accompanied by such words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “expects,” “plans,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue,” or the negative of such terms or other words and terms of similar meaning. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, achievements, or timeliness of such results. Moreover, neither we nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of such forward-looking statements. We are under no duty to update any of the forward-looking statements contained herein after the date of this report. Subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or to persons acting in our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements and risk factors set forth in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on March 20, 2023, and in other reports filed by us with the SEC.

 

You should read the following description of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in this report.

 

Overview

 

Digital Locations, Inc. (“Digital Locations”) or (“the Company”) is an early-stage aggregator, developer and acquirer of small cell sites and cell towers for 5G services. We intend to develop a portfolio of sites to help meet the expected demand of rapidly growing 5G networks.

 

To rapidly enter the market, we plan to acquire or partner with companies that have a portfolio of real estate that could be activated to meet the demands of 5G networks. Our goal is to become a “landlord” of tomorrow’s wireless communications assets.  In furtherance of our objective, on January 7, 2021, through our wholly owned subsidiary SmallCellSite Inc. (“SCS”), we closed on the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of SmallCellSite.com, LLC (“SCS LLC”), a source of more than 80,000 cell sites offered by property owners for use by wireless network operators.  The business acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase and the accounts of SCS are consolidated with those of the Company.

 

Subsequent to business acquisition, we intend to aggressively market and add more potential wireless sites to our database through non-exclusive marketing agreements with property owners. Management believes that the addition of more sites in the database will give our customers more options to select sites that meet their internal criteria. Once sites are selected and activated, additional revenue per site will be recognized by the Company.

 

By actively driving current property owners to list their property on www.smallcellsite.com, Digital Locations or its subsidiaries will receive a portion of the revenue if and when the property is activated by the carrier. Management believes that this business model greatly reduces the capital expenditure of traditional models of acquiring real estate and building wireless towers, and gives the Company a modern alternative to the development of traditional wireless small cells and towers.

On July 20, 2021, the Company became a member of the Digital Place-based Advertising Association (DPAA), the leading global trade marketing association connecting out-of-home (OOH) media with the advertising community while moving OOH to digital. We expect our membership in the DPAA to provide many business acceleration benefits, including a wide array of products and an extensive database of research, best practices and case studies; tools for planning, training and forecasting; social media amplification of news; insights on software and hardware solutions; further integration into the advertising ecosystem as part of the video everywhere conversation and marketing campaign.

 

On June 29, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with Smartify Media (“Smartify”) to add Smartify’s locations to the Company’s small cell database. Smartify turns any storefront or physical location into a (MXP) Media Experience Platform for property owners which creates recurring revenue and media value from programmatic and local media channels. This strategic agreement between the Company and Smartify will allow Smartify to now offer incremental revenue increases to property owners by facilitating the activation of 5G on their properties.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of March 31, 2023, our current liabilities exceeded our current and total assets by $254,093 and we had an accumulated deficit of $49,970,898. The Company currently does not have the cash resources to meet its operating commitments for the next twelve months and expects to have ongoing requirements for capital investment or debt to implement its business plan. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon, among other things, raising additional capital. The Company has obtained operating funds primarily from the issuance of convertible debt. Management believes this funding will continue and will provide the additional cash needed to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be successful in accomplishing its objectives. Without such additional capital we may be required to cease operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Results of Operations

 

Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2022

 

Revenues

 

Revenues, all from SCS, were $4,972 and $5,854 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.  Monthly payments are received by the Company from wireless carriers, with the Company paying the property owner a percentage of revenues ranging from 70% to 85%.  The net amount is retained by the Company as consideration for its intermediary services and recorded as revenues.  

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses remained consistent from year to year, and were $937,860 and $936,091 in the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Included in these expenses is non-cash stock option compensation expense of $745,448 and $736,9145 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Table of Contents

 

Depreciation and Amortization Expense

 

Depreciation and amortization expense of $500 in each of the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 consisted of the amortization of intangible assets acquired in the SCS LLC business acquisition. 

 

Other Income (Expense)

 

Our interest expense decreased to $75,881 in the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $150,794 in the three months ended March 31, 2022.  The decrease in interest expense in the current fiscal year resulted primarily from lower amortization of debt discount and accrued interest as we have had multiple convertible notes payable fully converted to common stock.  During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the last convertible note payable from an investor was converted to shares of our common stock.  

 

We reported non-cash gains on change in derivative liabilities of $1,202,921 and $1,453,533 in the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 respectively.  We estimate the fair value of the derivatives associated with our convertible notes payable and stock options using a multinomial lattice model based on projections of various potential future outcomes. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements, and probabilities of certain outcomes based on management projections. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management’s judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.

 

As holders of our convertible notes payable have converted the notes to shares of our common stock, we have recognized gains on change in derivative liabilities as related derivative liabilities are extinguished.  As discussed above, during the three months ended March 31, 2023, the last convertible note payable from an investor was converted to shares of our common stock.  Therefore, all convertible notes payable that created a tainted equity environment were extinguished and all derivative liabilities were eliminated in the consolidated financial statements, adding to the gain on change in derivative liabilities.

 

Net Income

 

Net income in the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $193,652, compared to net income of $372,002 in the three months ended March 31, 2022.  The decrease in net income in the current year resulted primarily from a lower gain on change in derivative liabilities.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of March 31, 2023, we had total current assets of $22,901, comprised of cash, and total current liabilities of $276,994, resulting in a working capital deficit of $254,093. 

 

As further discussed above, our liquidity was substantially improved with the elimination of all derivative liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 due primarily to an investor converting the last of our convertible notes payable to shares of common stock.  As of December 31, 2022, we had derivative liabilities of $1,233,679. 

 

 
21

Table of Contents

 

We funded our operations during the three months ended March 31, 2023 from the proceeds from the issuance of our Series E Preferred Stock of $172,000.  We anticipate we will continue to fund our operations from this source  in the short term.

 

Recent Financings

 

On April 7, 2023, an investor purchased 600 additional shares of Series E Preferred Stock for cash of $60,000, the stated valued of the shares. On May 8, 2023, the investor purchased 600 additional shares of Series E Preferred Stock for cash of $60,000, the stated value of the shares.

 

Sources and Uses of Cash

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we used net cash of $180,212 in operating activities as a result of our net income of $193,652, non-cash expenses totaling $818,070, and increases in accounts payable of $8,868 and accrued interest, notes payable of $2,625, offset by non-cash gain of $1,202,921 and a decrease in accrued expenses of $506.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we used net cash of $170,956 in operating activities as a result of our net income of $372,002, non-cash expenses totaling $898,536, and increases in accounts payable of $13,165 and accrued interest, notes payable of $9,234, offset by non-cash gain of $1,453,533 and decreases in accounts payable – related party of $10,000 and accrued expenses of $360.

 

We had no cash provided by or used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2023.  During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we used net cash of $500 in investing activities, comprised of the payment of deposits. 

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $172,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2023, comprised of proceeds from the issuance of Series E Preferred Stock.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $175,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2022, comprised of proceeds from convertible notes payable of $75,000 and proceeds from the issuance of Series E Preferred Stock of $120,000, partially offset by repayment of convertible notes payable of $20,000.

 

Historically, proceeds received from the issuance of debt and preferred stock have been sufficient to fund our current operating expenses. We estimate that we will need to raise substantial capital or financing over the next twelve months in order to explore business expansion opportunities and provide the necessary capital to meet our other general and administrative expenses. We anticipate that we will incur operating losses in the next twelve months. Our revenue is not expected to exceed our investment and operating costs in the next twelve months. Therefore, our future operations are dependent on our ability to secure additional financing. Our recent funding opportunities have been limited due to downturns in the U.S. equity and debt markets resulting from the world-wide Covid-19 pandemic. Future financing transactions, if available, may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. However, the trading price of our common stock and continued downturn in the U.S. equity and debt markets could make it more difficult to obtain financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities.

 

Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences, or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. The inability to obtain additional capital may restrict our ability to grow and may reduce our ability to continue to conduct business operations. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may have to curtail our marketing and development plans and possibly cease our operations.

Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of operations. To address these risks, we must, among other things, seek growth opportunities through investment and acquisitions, implement and successfully execute our business strategy, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. We cannot assure that we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Future Impact of Covid-19

 

The negative impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on companies continues and we are currently unable to assess with certainty the broad effects of Covid-19 on our future business. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had no material assets or liabilities that would be subject to impairment or change in valuation due to Covid-19.

 

With a limited source of revenue, we are currently dependent on debt or equity financing to fund our operations and execute our business plan. We believe that the impact on capital markets of Covid-19 may make it more costly and more difficult for us to access these sources of funding.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements. The following is a summary of those accounting policies that involve significant estimates and judgment of management.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements. Significant estimates made in preparing these financial statements include the estimate of useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, operating lease obligations, impairment of assets, the deferred tax valuation allowance, the fair value of stock options and derivative liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Intangible Assets

 

The identifiable intangible assets acquired in the SCS acquisition are amortized using the straight-line method over an estimated life of 5 years. 

 

Derivative Liabilities

 

We have identified the conversion features of our convertible notes payable and certain stock options as derivatives. Where the number of common shares to be issued under these agreements is indeterminate, the Company has concluded that the equity environment is tainted, and all additional options, convertible debt and equity are included in the value of the derivatives. We estimate the fair value of the derivatives using the Black-Scholes pricing model and a multinomial lattice model based on projections of various potential future outcomes. We estimate the fair value of the derivative liabilities at the inception of the financial instruments, at the date of conversions to equity and at each reporting date, recording a derivative liability, debt discount, additional paid-in capital and a gain or loss on change in derivative liabilities as applicable. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements and probabilities of certain outcomes based on management projections. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management's judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.

 

 
23

Table of Contents

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, all convertible notes payable that created a tainted equity environment were extinguished; therefore, all derivative liabilities were eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments, require disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value.  As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we believe the amounts reported for cash, accounts payable, accounts payable – related party, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, accrued interest, notes payable and certain notes payable approximate fair value because of their short maturities.

 

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.  Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASC”) Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value.  The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

 

 

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

 

 

Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

 

 

Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

 

We measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis.  As of March 31, 2023, we had no liabilities measured at fair value.  Liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2022:

Revenue Recognition

 

We have adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606) pursuant to which revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:

 

 

·

identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;

 

·

identification of the performance obligations in the contract;

 

·

determination of the transaction price;

 

·

allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

 

·

recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

 

Through its wholly owned subsidiary, the Company acts as an intermediary or agent to facilitate a platform through which property owners market billboards to wireless telephone carriers for placement of wireless communications network equipment. Contracts have been signed among the Company, the property owner, and the wireless telephone operator.  Monthly payments are received by the Company from the wireless carriers, with the Company paying the property owner a percentage of revenues ranging from 70% to 85%.  The net amount is retained by the Company as consideration for its intermediary services and recorded as revenues in the accompanying statements of operations.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

There were no new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and through the date of filing of this report that the Company believes will have a material impact on its financial statements.
