PART I

 

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

 

Company History and Overview

 

History of Blockchain Holdings Capital Ventures, Inc., a Delaware corporation

 

BLOCKCHAIN HOLDINGS CAPITAL VENTURES, INC. (the “Company”), formerly Southeastern Holdings, Inc. (formerly Safe Lane Systems, Inc.) was incorporated in the State of Colorado on September 10, 2013. Safe Lane Systems, Inc. redomiciled to become a Delaware holding corporation in September of 2016. On September 22, 2016, Safe Lane Systems, Inc. formed two wholly owned subsidiaries, SLS Industrial, Inc and Southeastern Holdings, Inc. (both Delaware corporations) and on September 30, 2016 completed a merger and reorganization in which Southeastern Holdings, Inc. (now Blockchain Holdings Capital Ventures, Inc.) became the holding company. On December 1, 2016, the Company spun off its wholly owned subsidiary, SLS Industrial, Inc., along with its assets and liabilities, leaving Southeastern Holdings, Inc. as the only surviving entity.

 

On August 23, 2018, the Company entered into a Bill of Sale and Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Blockchain Holdings, LLC (“Blockchain”) pursuant to which the Company purchased all of the assets of Blockchain which are used in the business of sourcing of blockchain mining equipment from various suppliers for their customers and also providing management of the equipment hosted, mining pools and tech work on such equipment. The Company issued 300,000,000 shares of its common stock, par value $.0001 valued at $300,000 to the members of Blockchain in exchange for the assets of Blockchain.

 

The Company has accounted for this transaction as a reverse recapitalization under ASC 805, under which the operating entity, Blockchain Holdings, LLC, adopted the assets, liabilities and equity structure of Blockchain Holdings Capital Ventures, Inc. on August 23, 2018, while retaining its historical activity. The financial statements therefore present activity beginning with Blockchain Holdings, LLC’s inception date of February 5, 2018 through September 30, 2018.

 

On August 30, 2018 the Company changed its name to Blockchain Holdings Capital Ventures, Inc.

 

Blockchain Holdings Capital Ventures, Inc is focused on finding, vetting and acquiring cash flowing assets including, Commercial Real Estate, Energy and Technology Companies.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. However, the above conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so. New business opportunities may never emerge, and we may not be able to sufficiently fund the pursuit of new business opportunities should they arise.

 

As of December 31, 2018, we had approximately $6,293 in cash on hand. Our current monthly cash burn rate is approximately $35,000, and it is expected that burn rate will continue and is not expected to increase until significant additional capital is raised and our marketing plan is executed. Our trade creditors may call debts at any time, and our cash reserves would not be sufficient to satisfy all balances. We are currently dependent on minimal expenses to be covered by a loan or other cash infusion from the Company’s CEO and Director Mr. Wannemacher, and COO and Director, Daniel Wong. There is no guarantee that this cash infusion will continue to be made.

COMPANY BUSINESS OVERVIEW

 

Our Company, originally Safe Lane Systems, Inc., was formed to develop the marketing of, and contract the manufacturing of, certain products resulting from the development of IP in design and manufacturing by Superior Traffic Controls, Inc. We licensed certain IP under a Master License and a Sub License to capitalize the marketing and contract manufacturing of certain products.

 

After spinning off the assets and liabilities of our traffic safety division in December 2016, we no longer possess the aforementioned intellectual property or rights thereto and have implemented a new business model.

 

Blockchain Holding Capital Ventures, Inc. (BHCV) is now focused on building a diversified set of assets with high growth potential and sustainable monthly returns. The Company’s foundation is built on commercial real estate assets in designated Opportunity Zones that have a specific energy footprint. The commercial properties are located in Opportunity Zones to take advantage of three unique elements: deferral of past capital gains tax, reduction in tax liabilities, and elimination of future capital gains tax. These benefits, coupled with revenue generated from leasing and improvements to the properties, offer strong growth potential and long-term returns. BHCVs unique hedging strategy protects against possible real estate downturns by increasing the value of the property and revenue generated with our custom-designed decentralized mobile data centers. BHCV offers low-cost, secure colocation and private data hosting. These services range from cloud or information services, communications, networking, blockchain mining, disaster recovery solutions, artificial intelligence, rendering, and other high demand needs for computing power.

 

Our Proposed Products:

 

Colocation Services

 

This will be our primary revenue stream. It is a major growth area with companies choosing to rent processing power for a growing number of needs, including blockchain mining, artificial intelligence, data storage, cloud computing, and data processing. BHCV will host space for servers, which will be leased on a space per-server monthly basis. BHCV will oversee real-time monitoring of these servers, with onsite IT and maintenance staff carrying out updates, preventative troubleshooting, and servicing to minimize any downtimes and ensure continuous processing power.

 

Mobile Data Center Solutions

 

BHCV has an exclusive agreement with a container solution company to customize and build data centers that are weather resistant, cost effective, quick to install, and have mobility in case the market conditions are not optimal. As part of the portfolio of data center solutions, BHCV expects to profit by approximately $50,000 per container sold. Each container will cost approximately $100,000 on average to develop and it will be shipped to BHCV’s customers directly.

 

Traditional Real Estate Leasing in Opportunity Zones

 

Lease of Commercial Space – Properties will be scouted based on a primary use in mind and forecasting the probability of finding a tenant. Tenants will be mainly companies in need of space for different needs, but initially focused on industrial and warehousing components. It is possible that the portfolio of real estate assets will include some retail or other consumer faced space, provided the opportunity is significant and the investment can be balanced off with a different property that would be specifically targeted to the colocation leasing space.

 

Commercial Real Estate Sales – Although this is one of our long term goals to be implemented in the future, we intend to build a strong portfolio of properties that will eventually allow us to be in a position to liquidate some of our future holdings.

 

Sales and Marketing Plan

 

Once the Company has raised the capital needed to roll out its products and services it will adopt an appropriate sales and marketing plan to support those efforts.

 

Sales Strategy

 

The core strategic vision of BHCV will be built around the development of a growing portfolio of commercial real estate assets, which will be carefully selected to offer the best potential for dual-use functionality. This dual-use focuses on utilizing the space to offer colocation of processing power by creating a network of leading-edge data centers, as well as more traditional leasing of any excess and dedicated commercial space. Amongst the colocation space, BHCV will be pressing the advantages of its decentralized datacenters, with inherent disaster recovery options and its modular mobile data centers which will offer durable, flexible, and affordable capacity for clients. However, in addition to this BHCV plans to hire and train a staff of sales representatives willing to search potential tenants in need of computing power for their applications. Ensuring competitive pricing, reliable power supply, processing uptime, flexible leasing agreements, and ongoing support and maintenance will help BHCV to develop its position within the data center market and help it to attract long-term value customers. BHCV will support this strategic vision and conceptual growth with the following:

 

  Leveraging the complimentary expertise of its founders and leadership team, who possess unique synergies of experience and proven successes in the fields of blockchain technologies and real estate investment and management.
     
  Investing in more unique modular mobile data centers, allowing low-cost upscaling of capacities and providing clients with affordable, robust, and flexible options.
     
  Developing close partnerships with major energy and power companies in order to secure best value energy costs, which can be reflected in a competitive pricing structure for colocation tenants.
     
  Robust site selection process with stringent criteria aimed at maximizing commercial use, whether for long-term commercial leasing or colocation purposes.
     
  Attract investment funding to help fund asset portfolio growth, nurturing investor relations by presenting the vision of BHCV and the potential cash incentives offered through schemes such as Opportunity Funds or tax breaks.
     
  Engaging in high-level relationship building to increase understanding of the market and to nurture potential partnerships with key industry players.

 

 4 
   

 

  Maintaining a strong market analytic focus to help flex its operational strategies.
     
  Offering exceptional value proposition for clients with flexible, competitively priced data leasing and a range of added-value services.
     
  Staying ahead of potential regulatory changes to ensure minimal impact on data center operations.
     
  Effective marketing and promotional strategies, including working closely with real estate partners, employing passionate sales representatives who will approach prospective clients, and taking active roles in leading industry events, conferences, and forums.
     
  Maximizing early mover position in a dynamic market to gain traction and commercial momentum.
     
  Pursue multilateral downstream markets, leveraging increasingly wide applications of blockchain technologies to attract other companies.
     
  Secure preferential and flexible purchase option for properties, increasing competitiveness through less reliance on leveraged funds to grow the real estate asset pool.

 

Primary Marketing Campaign Strategy

 

A strong marketing and promotional focus will be followed, with particular attention paid to networking and relationship building as well as supporting the extensive connections of the leadership and advisory team with engagement with real estate brokers. This will be further supplemented by high-profile attendances at conferences, expos, and trade shows relating to digital growth areas such as blockchain, cloud computing, and virtual and augmented reality. Outside of this, a full spectrum of marketing and promotional activities will be launched, using some of the following channels.

 

Internet Marketing – One of the most effective marketing channels for businesses is the internet, and the Company maintains an engaging web presence as a passive marketing placeholder, offering useful information about the history of BHCV and its services.
   
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) – By utilizing SEO the Company can work on improving the visibility of the website on all major search engines such as Google, Bing, Ask, Yahoo, etc.
   
Paid Online Advertisements – Pay per click (PPC) keyword advertising will help to promote contextual search results for the Company, and paying for advertisements with Google, AdSense, and other platforms to display ads on major search results and Facebook pages will help to promote contextual search results for the Company.
   
Social Media Marketing (SMM) – Social Media Marketing is fast becoming the most popular channel by which businesses can engage with their target market and client base. The business, and its growing network of data centers, may establish social media channels on platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn, providing an outlet to stay in touch with clients and interact with the market.
   
Traditional Marketing – Any comprehensive marketing campaign will include traditional marketing channels. This may include having print media advertisements in specialist interest magazines or periodicals, and BHCV will launch full press and PR campaigns, including press releases, articles or leaders in local newspapers or industry periodicals, announcements, white papers in industry press, investor or stock-market related publications, and notices and other engaging events. Direct marketing will also be utilized, including mailings of promotional literatures to key target markets, and supported by a growing team of sales representatives who will be approaching and engaging directly with prospective clients and showcasing the value proposition of BHCV full data center solutions.

Industry events and exhibitions – Having a presence at industry events and conventions can further increase brand awareness and industry reputation, and allow opportunities to interact with key decision makers at other businesses, organizations, consultancy partners, or technology companies. This can potentially result in new leads or other opportunities in future. Similarly, sponsoring or co-sponsoring such events or conferences can provide another effective backdrop to promote the Company.

 

COMPETITION, MARKETS, AND REGULATION

 

Competition

 

We offer a unique business model being a publicly traded holding company with a focus on a diversified set of complimentary cash flowing assets including Commercial Real Estate, Energy and Technology Companies. Our foundation is built on targeted commercial real estate with a specific energy footprint in Opportunity Zones, in order to improve, lease and roll out our proprietary mobile data centers to increase property value. The partnerships we have successfully secured are leaders in the markets they serve.

 

We have secured an exclusive agreement with SG Blocks, Inc. (NASDAQ: SGBX), a leading designer, fabricator, and innovator of container-based structures, with respect to our datacenters. By repurposing traditional maritime containers through a combination of engineering efficiency and artistic design, SG Blocks has created iconic, compact, and easily deployable structures that are specifically-purposed for their client’s needs. As a result, they will be able to use this expertise for us and allow us to roll out mobile data centers which will give our clients maximum flexibility at much lower cost point. This ability to repurpose the containers is vital to our strategy. As a global leader, SG Blocks has the experience and the capabilities to produce these mobile data centers not only to specification, but under traditional construction costs as well. Their patent on the interlocking design, ability to stack 9 modules high, and code compliance will allow for rapid deployment and scalability. Our data centers will be shipped 90% complete and can be added to as needed to both fill demand and remain uniquely adaptable to our client’s demands. These low-cost, decentralized innovative data centers will offer secure and affordable solutions for our customers—including built-in disaster recovery options.

 

We have secured an agreement with Cresa to work with their team and their proprietary iSiteSelection™ tool that gives us access to the best data center and commercial data available globally. Companies like Verizon, AT&T, and Disney rely on the same data we will be using to identify where to deploy our decentralized solutions. Cresa has worked with Fortune 150 clients for over 25 years to strategize, consult, and identify optimal properties for acquisition to roll out data centers. With both global understanding and international operations in the areas of energy identification, data center site strategy, and real estate vetting, Cresa is highly in line with our own needs. With their team of consultants and proprietary iSiteSelection™ tool, we can locate the targeted properties with infrastructure-centric needs to make sure we are rolling out our data centers where demand is highest. With these capabilities, we can begin rolling out our mobile data center model to increase the cash flow and property values. We will continuously evaluate other complimentary acquisition opportunities as they arise with the aid of their extensive location technologies.

 

We have also engaged NES Financial, an industry leader in fund management and opportunity zone consulting, to support our efforts and plans to participate in an Opportunity Zone Fund that allows investors to benefit from multiple areas. NES Financial is a leader and specializes in administering Opportunity Zone Funds. Due to the recent creation of these classes, and the shifting nature of the regulations as it evolves, there is a need for continuous and specialized oversight, which NES can effectively perform due to their focus on program-specific tax laws and governmental guidelines. The correct understanding and management of the fund can facilitate ideal acquisition of the tax-deferred investments and allow us to fully capitalize off of the untapped market. With their leadership and expertise in this new space we will have the right company on board to support and streamline these financial transactions for investors.

 

We have secured an agreement with Experis Manpower Group who specializes in the alignment and deployment of technology and financially-trained professionals into needed vacuums inside of organizations. They allow for the quick acquisition of specialized talent in high-demand and knowledge-intense fields. By partnering with Experis and its larger network, we can quickly fill any occupational holes that may develop or evolve as our operations continue to progress. These need-precise professionals can be contracted and deployed where and when needed, further decreasing long-term staffing costs and largely increasing our pool of accessible talent.

The Company’s main purpose is to provide a safe, transparent diversified investment vehicle for investors to participate in the very exciting space while managing the risk over a diversified portfolio of assets. Our asset backed cash flowing model will include assets globally but will begin in the United States to ensure a more stable and predictable growth curve.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. However, the above conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so. New business opportunities may never emerge, and we may not be able to sufficiently fund the pursuit of new business opportunities should they arise.

 

As of December 31, 2018, we had approximately $6,293 in cash on hand. Our current monthly cash burn rate is approximately $35,000, and it is expected that burn rate will continue and is expected to continue at $35,000 until significant additional capital is raised and our marketing plan is executed. Our trade creditors may call debts at any time, and our cash reserves would not be sufficient to satisfy all balances. We are currently dependent on minimal expenses to be covered by a loan or other cash infusion from the Company’s CEO and Director Mr. Wannamaker, and COO and Director, Daniel Wong. There is no guarantee that this cash infusion will continue to be made.

 

PLAN OF OPERATIONS

 

We showed limited revenues resulting from reverse recapitalization accounting, did not generate profits on such revenues and did not recognize any income from continuing operations as of December 31, 2018. The revenues reflected in the financial statements for the period from February 5, 2018 (inception) through December 31, 2018 are not recurring and are presented due to the SEC’s classification of the asset acquisition as a reverse recapitalization. We have negative capital and no intangible assets. We are illiquid and need cash infusions from investors or shareholders to provide capital, or loans from any sources, none of which have been arranged nor assured.

 

We are currently seeking new business opportunities. Our goals for the next year are to pursue and engage in business opportunities and generate additional capital to fund such endeavors.

Our goals for the next year are as follows:

 

Future Milestones

 

  Plan on raising capital to fully execute on the business plan
  Plan on up-listing to OTCQB
  Plan on filing an S-1 to register stock and build a market
  Plan on helping an Opportunity Zone Fund

 

APPLICATION OF FUNDS (1)

 

Item  Amount (1) 
Compensation of officers  $210,000 
Legal and professional fees   50,000 
Audit fees   25,000 
Other general and administrative costs   135,000 
Total  $420,000 

 

(1) These items are variable and no commitment has been obtained from any source.

 

The Company may change any or all of the budget categories in the execution of its business model. None of the line items are to be considered fixed or unchangeable. The Company may need substantial additional capital to support its budget.

 

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements. Our Budget for operations in next year is as follows:

 

Item  Amount (1) 
Compensation of officers  $210,000 
Legal and professional fees   50,000 
Audit fees   25,000 
Other general and administrative costs   135,000

We will need substantial additional capital to support our future operations. We have no revenues and have no committed source for any funds as of the date hereof. No representation is made that any funds will be available when needed. In the event funds cannot be raised when needed, we may not be able to carry out our business plan, may never achieve sales or royalty income, and could fail in business as a result of these uncertainties. If our initial prospect appears uneconomical after evaluation we will seek other prospects it the area to acquire or farm into.

 

We may also consider a private placement or public offering of our common stock, if the market conditions allow at the time. No price, schedule or terms for such an offering has been determined at this time. We expect to expend funds on a quarterly basis, as follows:

 

Period  Amount 
Q1 2019 (cash on hand 12/31/18)  $6,293 
Q2 2019   105,000

Q4 2019   105,000 
Total Cash Burn  $321,293

Results of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 2018

 

During the period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018, the Company generated revenues of $288,922 and incurred associated costs of $219,891 for gross margin of $69,031. While the Company generated revenue during these periods, the revenue was volatile and unstable, and there can be no guarantee of future revenue.

 

During the period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018, the Company incurred $35,409 of sales and marketing expenses and $158,520 of general and administrative costs, including consulting fees, professional services fees and other administrative costs. The Company also recorded $29,817 of stock-based compensation expense for the issuance of 7,000,000 shares of Class A Preferred and 7,000,000 shares of Class C Preferred Stock to its CEO and COO during the period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018.

 

The Company incurred net operating losses of $181,265 for the period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018. During this period, the Company determined all of its capitalized mining equipment was impaired, resulting in a charge of $26,550 to impairment expense for the period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

During the period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018, and the three months ended December 31, 2018, the Company sold 266,667 shares (equivalent to 2,667 post-split) of common stock to its former CEO for proceeds of $40,000.

 

During the twelve months ending December 31, 2019, the Company estimates it will need approximately $420,000 to pursue business opportunities. The Company currently pursues business in the blockchain technology industry, which is a volatile industry and as a result may experience significant fluctuations and losses. Other than the foregoing, the Company does not know of any trends, events or uncertainties that have had, or are reasonably expected to have, a material impact on sales, revenues or income from continuing operations, or liquidity and capital resources.

 

Short Term.

 

On a short-term basis, we do not generate any revenue or revenues sufficient to cover operations. Based on prior history, we will continue to have insufficient revenue to satisfy current and future liabilities as we continue to explore new opportunities.

 

No commitments to provide additional funds have been made by our management or other stockholders. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any additional funds will be available to us to allow it to cover our expenses as they may be incurred.

 

Capital Resources

 

Our capital resources currently consist of cash.

 

Need for Additional Financing

 

We do not have capital sufficient to meet our cash needs. Nor do we have sufficient capital to meet our short-term trade and debt obligations. We plan to seek loans or equity placements to cover such cash needs. Once full business operations commence, our needs for additional financing will likely face substantial increases.

 

Within the next twelve months we will need to secure an additional $4,400,000 in financing to fully implement our plan of operations. After the twelve month period we do not see a need to raise additional capital unless we identify other assets to purchase.

 

No commitments have been made to provide additional funding by our management or other stockholders. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any additional funds will be available to us to allow it to cover our expenses as they may be incurred.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as cash equivalents.

 

 10 
   

 

Impairment of Long-life Assets

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, the Company reviews its long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the assets may not be fully recoverable. If the total of the expected undiscounted future net cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying amount of the asset.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Income Tax

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Under ASC 740, deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss carry-forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

 

Fiscal year

 

The Company employs a fiscal year ending December 31.

 

Net Income (Loss) per share

 

The net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common outstanding. Warrants, stock warrants, and common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Company’s preferred stock (if any), are not included in the computation if the effect would be anti-dilutive and would increase the earnings or decrease loss per share.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company is currently pursuing new business opportunities and consequently has not produced revenues. Should the Company generate revenues in the future, it will recognize such revenues in accordance with ASC 606, “Contracts with Customers.”

 

Financial Instruments

 

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, as reported in the accompanying balance sheet, are stated at fair value.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company adopted the provisions of and accounts for stock-based compensation using an estimate of value in accordance with the fair value method. Under the fair value recognition provisions of this statement, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which generally is the vesting period. The Company elected the modified-prospective method, under which prior periods are not revised for comparative purposes. The valuation method applies to new grants and to grants that were outstanding as of the effective date and are subsequently modified.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amount of accounts payable is considered to be representative of respective fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

 

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide information required by this Item.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Blockchain Holdings Capital Ventures, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Blockchain Holdings Capital Ventures, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2018 and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficiency) and cash flows for the period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Explanatory Paragraph – Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses since inception and has a working capital deficiency both of which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of December 31, 2018 and for the period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) Through December 31, 2018

 

NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

BLOCKCHAIN HOLDINGS CAPITAL VENTURES, INC. (the “Company”), formerly Southeastern Holdings, Inc. (formerly Safe Lane Systems, Inc.) was incorporated in the State of Colorado on September 10, 2013. Safe Lane Systems, Inc. redomiciled to become a Delaware holding corporation in September of 2016. On September 22, 2016, Safe Lane Systems, Inc. formed two wholly owned subsidiaries, SLS Industrial, Inc and Southeastern Holdings, Inc. (both Delaware corporations) and on September 30, 2016 completed a merger and reorganization in which Southeastern Holdings, Inc. (now Blockchain Holdings Capital Ventures, Inc.) became the holding company. On December 1, 2016, the Company spun off its wholly owned subsidiary, SLS Industrial, Inc., along with its assets and liabilities, leaving Southeastern Holdings, Inc. as the only surviving entity.

 

On August 23, 2018, the Company entered into a Bill of Sale and Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Blockchain Holdings, LLC (“Blockchain”) pursuant to which the Company purchased all of the assets of Blockchain which are used in the business of sourcing of blockchain mining equipment from various suppliers for their customers and also providing management of the equipment hosted, mining pools and tech work on such equipment. The Company issued 300,000,000 (equivalent to 3,000,000 after the reverse split) shares of its common stock, par value $.0001 to the members of Blockchain in exchange for the assets of Blockchain.

 

On August 30, 2018 the Company changed its name to Blockchain Holdings Capital Ventures, Inc.

 

Business description

 

Blockchain Holdings Capital Ventures, Inc is a public company that is focused on finding, building, vetting and acquiring assets in support of the high growth associated with computing demands including the blockchain space. The Company’s main purpose is to provide a safe, transparent diversified investment vehicle for investors to participate in the very exciting space while managing the risk over a diversified portfolio of assets. Our asset backed cash flowing model will include assets globally but will begin in the United States to ensure a more stable and predictable growth curve.

 

Change in Control

 

On August 23, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase the assets of Blockchain Holdings, LLC for consideration of 300,000,000 shares to be issued in exchange for all of Blockchain Holdings, LLC’s assets. This share issuance resulted in a change of control of the issuer. The Company determined that this transaction resulted in a change of control based on the transfer of common stock since (1) the Company’s historical Class A Super Voting Preferred Stock was legally void, and (2) the intent of management would have been to transfer that control in connection with the purchase if that class of stock were valid. Immediately prior to the transaction, the Company’s former CEO, Paul Dickman, owned 72% of the outstanding common stock. Immediately after the transaction, the member of Blockchain Holdings, LLC held a total of 68% of the outstanding common stock, with the Company’s new management controlling a total of 45.6% of the outstanding common stock comprised of 22.8% held by an entity owned and controlled by the current CEO and 22.8% held by an entity owned and controlled by the COO.

BLOCKCHAIN HOLDINGS CAPITAL VENTURES, INC. (Formerly Southeastern Holdings, Inc.)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of December 31, 2018 and for the period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) Through December 31, 2018

 

Reverse Recapitalization

 

The Company evaluated the August 23, 2018 acquisition of Blockchain Holdings, LLC’s outstanding interests and determined that the acquisition falls under guidance of the SEC’s Financial Reporting Manual, Section 12100, which deems the transaction to be a change in control and a “capital transaction in substance.” The Merger is being accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. Reverse recapitalization accounting applies when a non-operating public shell company (Southeastern Holdings, Inc.) acquires a private operating company (Blockchain) and the owners and management of the private operating company have actual or effective voting and operating control of the combined company. A reverse recapitalization is equivalent to the issuance of stock by the private operating company for the net monetary assets of the public shell corporation accompanied by a recapitalization with accounting similar to that resulting from a reverse acquisition, except that no goodwill or other intangible assets are recorded. The reverse recapitalization accounting is attributable to a long-held position of the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission that the acquisition of a non-operating public shell company does not qualify as a business for business purposes, as described in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations. The Company’s recapitalization entry resulted in the following changes to equity:

 

   Prior to Recapitalization   Transaction
August 23, 2018
   Recapitalization
August 23, 2018
   After Recapitalization 
Class A super voting preferred stock*  $1,000        $(1,000)  $- 
Class B non-voting preferred stock*   -              - 
Common stock**   138    300         438 
Additional paid-in capital**   15,224    299,700    (314,924)   - 
Accumulated deficit   (92,607)        15,924    (76,683)
Total Stockholders’ Equity  $(76,245)  $300,000   $(300,000)  $(76,245)

 

*As discussed elsewhere in this note, the Company subsequently discovered that all of its historical Preferred Stock classes were improperly filed with the State of Delaware and therefore legally null and void. The Company evaluated the impacts of the discovery in light of ASC 250 and determined that the cumulative effect of resulting corrections was qualitatively and quantitatively immaterial to the Company's operations and therefore eliminated the outstanding Preferred Stock from the historical entity in the recapitalization accounting on August 23, 2018.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The Company maintains the calendar year as its basis of reporting.

 

Use of Estimates

 

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

 

Cash Equivalents and Concentration of Cash Balance

 

The Company considers all highly liquid securities with an original maturity of less than three months to be cash equivalents. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. As of December 31, 2018, the Company’s cash balances did not exceed federally insured limits.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment with an original cost in excess of $1,000 and having a useful life over one year is recorded at cost when purchased. Depreciation is recorded for property and equipment using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of assets.

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, the Company reviews its long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the assets may not be fully recoverable. If the total of the expected undiscounted future net cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying amount of the asset.

 

The Company purchased coin mining equipment for $26,550 in early 2018 and determined that the fair market value of such equipment decreased significantly and recognized impairment expense of $26,550 during the period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018.

 

As of December 31, 2018, the Company had $0 of property and equipment, net of $26,550 of impairment.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of December 31, 2018 and for the period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) Through December 31, 2018

 

Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities

 

Accounts payable consisted of $74,434 of liabilities incurred by the issuer prior to the merger, and accrued liabilities consisted of $1,811 for state and local taxes payable as of December 31, 2018. The remaining accounts payable of $35,138 as of December 31, 2018 consisted of amounts due for professional services and various other general and administrative expenses incurred after the acquisition. Remaining accrued liabilities of $82,603 as of December 31, 2018 primarily consisted of $45,000 due to the CEO’s company and $37,500 to the COO’s company for accrued consulting fees.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue under ASC 606, using the following five-step model, which requires that we: (1) identify a contract with the customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations and (5) recognize revenue as performance obligations are satisfied. The Company’s revenue streams historically consisted of three components:

 

  1. Equipment sales – The Company purchases and resells equipment, recognizing the equipment’s original costs and costs to deliver such to the customer as costs of goods sold.
     
  2. Consulting and management fees – These fees consist of various services provided to companies entering the blockchain space and range from equipment setup to facility management to general consulting.
     
  3. Coin mining commissions – On an ongoing basis, the Company collects a 5% commission on coins processed by its management clients.

 

While the operating company generated early revenue from the aforementioned sources, the Company has shifted its focus to finding, building, vetting and acquiring assets to support computing demands including the blockchain space and is not currently pursuing operations that historically have generated revenue. There can be no assurances that these efforts will generate future revenue.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of December 31, 2018 and for the period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) Through December 31, 2018

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for share-based payments pursuant to ASC 718, “Stock Compensation” and, accordingly, the Company records compensation expense for share-based awards based upon an assessment of the grant date fair value for stock options and restricted stock awards using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

 

Stock compensation expense for stock options is recognized over the vesting period of the award or expensed immediately when stock or options are awarded for previous or current service without further recourse.

 

On October 4, 2018, the Company issued 7,000,000 shares of Class A Preferred Stock and 7,000,000 shares of its Class C Convertible Preferred Stock to its officers as compensation. The Company determined the value of the Class A Preferred Stock to be $26,317 based on the amount of control the stock granted the officers in common stockholder voting matters, under the assumption that the common stock’s value was $0.0001 per share. The Company further assigned $3,500 of value to the Class C Convertible Preferred Stock based on the amount of common shares the officers could convert that stock into under the assumption of common stock having a value of $0.0001 per share. Subsequently, in April 2019, the Company filed an amended and restated certificate of designation, which restricts the CEO and COO from converting the 7,000,000 shares into common stock for 36 months from the issuance date. The Company determined that the restrictions did not impact the value of such shares and accordingly has not adjusted stock-based compensation expense.

 

During the period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018, the Company recognized $26,317 of stock-based compensation expense.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company is subject to taxation in various jurisdictions and may be subject to examination by various authorities.

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets, including tax loss and credit carryforwards, and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are 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. Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are individually classified as current and non-current based on their characteristics. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

The Company recognizes the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events and transactions that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns.

 

NOTE 3: GOING CONCERN

 

As shown in the accompanying financial statements as of December 31, 2018, the Company had $6,293 of cash, as compared to total current liabilities of $193,986, has incurred substantial operating losses, and had an accumulated deficit of $181,265. Furthermore, the Company’s revenue history has been limited and unstable, and there can be no assurances of future revenues.

 

Given these factors, the Company is dependent on financing from outside parties, and management intends to pursue outside capital through debt and equity vehicles. There is no assurance that these efforts will materialize or be successful or sufficient to fund operations and meet obligations as they come due.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, however, the above conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so. The financial statements do not include any adjustment to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of December 31, 2018 and for the period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) Through December 31, 2018

 

NOTE 4: STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (DEFICIENCY)

 

The Company has designated ten million (10,000,000) shares of its preferred stock, par value $0.001 as Class A Preferred Super Majority Voting Stock* (“Class A”). The Class A shares have the right to vote upon matters submitted to the holders of common stock, par value $0.0001 of the Company. Class A shares have a vote equal to the number of shares of common stock of the Company which would give the holders of the Class A shares a vote equal to sixty percent (60%) of the common stock. This vote shall be exercised pro-rata by the holders of the Class A. The Company shall have the right to redeem, in its sole and absolute discretion, at any time one (1) year after the date of issuance of such Class A shares, all or any portion of the shares of Class A at a price of one cent ($0.01) per share. On October 4, 2018, the Company issued a total of 7,000,000 Class A shares to its CEO and COO as stock-based compensation for services rendered. Subsequently, in April 2019, the Company filed an amended and restated certificate of designation, which restricts the CEO and COO from converting the 7,000,000 shares into common stock for 36 months from the issuance date.

 

The Company has not currently authorized a Class B designation of Preferred Stock.

 

The Company has designated ten million (10,000,000) shares of its preferred stock, par value $0.001 as Class C Convertible Preferred Non-Voting Stock* (“Class C”). Each share of Class C shall be convertible into five (5) shares of common stock. The holders of Class C shall be entitled to receive the same dividend as the holders of the common stock and such dividend shall be paid pro rata per share on a fully converted basis. The holders of Class C shall have piggyback registration rights. The Company shall have the right to redeem, in its sole and absolute discretion, at any time after five (5) years, all or any portion of the shares of Class C at a price of five dollars ($5.00) per share. The Class C shares shall be considered to have a junior liquidation preference to Class A shares and a senior dividend preference to Class A shares. On October 4, 2018, the Company issued a total of 7,000,000 Class C shares to its CEO and COO as stock-based compensation for services rendered.

 

*Upon the change in control discussed in note 1 to the financial statements, the Company discovered that all of its historical Preferred Stock classes were improperly filed with the State of Delaware and therefore legally null and void. The Company eliminated the outstanding Preferred Stock from the historical entity in the recapitalization accounting on August 23, 2018. The Class A and C shares above are governed by certificates of designation filed with the State of Delaware on September 17, 2018.

 

As of December 31, 2018, the Company was authorized to issue 150,000,000 shares of common stock. All common stock shares have full dividend and voting rights. However, it is not anticipated that the Company will be declaring dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

In connection with the acquisition on August 23, 2018, the Company recognized a reverse recapitalization totaling 138,355,000 (equivalent to 1,383,550 post-split) shares of common stock, which reflects all Southeastern Holdings, Inc. prior equity activity, and recognized the issuance of 300,000,000 (equivalent to 3,000,000 post-split) shares of common stock recorded at par value to effect the acquisition.

 

On August 29, 2018, the Company’s former CEO purchased 266,667 (equivalent to 2,667 post-split) common shares for $40,000.

 

On December 13, 2018, the Company announced a 100-for-1 reverse split of outstanding common shares. On December 27, 2018, the reverse split became effective, resulting in the outstanding common share pool being reduced from 438,621,667 shares to 4,386,217 common shares, resulting in a reclassification of $43,398 from the common stock’s par value to additional paid-in capital. At that time, the Company also reduced its authorized common shares from 450,000,000 to 150,000,000.

 

As of December 31, 2018, the Company had 4,386,217 (comparable to 438,621,667 pre-split) common shares outstanding.

 

As of December 31, 2018, 7,000,000 shares of Class A Preferred Stock and 7,000,000 shares of Class C Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding.

NOTE 5: RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

During the period from February 5, 2018 (inception) through December 31, 2018, the Company paid consulting fees of $10,000 and $7,500 to its CEO and COO, respectively, and included these fees in general and administrative expenses. The Company accrued an additional $45,000 and $37,500 of consulting fees to the CEO and COO, respectively, resulting in $82,500 of accrued expenses as of December 31, 2018. The Company does not currently have consulting or employment agreements with these individuals, and as a result, these fees may fluctuate from time to time. While the Company believes these individuals were appropriately classified as contractors and has accordingly neither paid nor accrued payroll taxes, these payments may result in future tax liabilities should the Internal Revenue Service deem these individuals to be employees.

 

Equipment sales revenue during the period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018 included $6,450 of sales to the former CEO and $2,391 to the current CEO.

 

During the period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018, the Company paid the CEO’s company, Wannemacher Corporation., $5,612 of commissions on management and consulting revenue and paid the COO’s company, Omnivance Advisors, Inc. $4,829 of commissions on the same. The Company also paid out an estimated $3,464 ($1,732 to the CEO and $1,732 to the COO) in cryptocurrency as commission from the Company’s mining operations and included this in sales and marketing expense. These commissions are included in sales and marketing expense on the statement of operations.

 

During the period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018, the Company’s revenues and costs of goods sold included the following related party transactions:

 

   Management and Consulting Fees   Equipment
Sales
 
Customer  February 5, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018   February 5, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018

Paul Dickman (2)   -    6,450 
Delray Wannemacher (3)   -    2,391 
Total  $18,954   $150,104

 

(1) Paul Dickman, the Company’s former CEO was the CFO of ChineseInvestors.com, Inc. and was therefore deemed to exercise significant influence.

 

(2) Paul Dickman is the Company’s former CEO.

 

(3) Delray Wannemacher is the Company’s current CEO.

 

As of December 31, 2018, the Company was indebted to its CEO and COO for $82,500 of accrued consulting fees.

 

NOTE 6: INCOME TAX

 

The Company recorded no deferred income tax provision or benefit for the period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018, because the Company believes it is more likely than not that these will not be utilized in the near future due to net losses. The Company has generated no taxable income. The income tax provision (benefit) differs from the amount computed by applying the U.S. Federal income tax rate of 21% plus applicable state rates to the loss before income taxes due to the unrecognized benefit resulting from the Company’s valuation allowance, as well as due to nondeductible expenses. The Company’s blended tax rate of 21% currently consists of 21% for U.S. Federal income tax and 0% for Delaware state income taxes.

NOTE 8: RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606). This ASU supersedes the previous revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605—Revenue Recognition and most industry-specific guidance throughout the ASC. The core principle within this ASU is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received for those goods or services. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which deferred the effective date for ASU 2014-09 by one year to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, while providing the option to early adopt for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. Transition methods under ASU 2014-09 must be through either (i) retrospective application to each prior reporting period presented, or (ii) retrospective application with a cumulative effect adjustment at the date of initial application. The Company adopted this accounting policy, as outlined in Note 2, effective January 1, 2018.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases” (Topic 842). This ASU requires a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability under most operating leases in its balance sheet. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has adopted this policy beginning on January 1, 2019.

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows” (Topic 230). This ASU is intended to reduce diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. This ASU is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

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

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

 

Not Applicable.

 

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report on Form 10-K. Disclosure controls and procedures are procedures designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such as this Form 10-K, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and is communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2018, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

 

Management’s Annual Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f), is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

 

  Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
  Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
  Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use of disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

 

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018. Based on this assessment, management believes that as of December 31, 2018, our internal control over financial reporting is not effective based on those criteria.

 

Specifically, management’s evaluation identified the following material weaknesses, which existed as of December 31, 2018:

 

  (1) Financial Reporting Systems: We did not maintain a fully integrated financial consolidation and reporting system throughout the period and as a result, extensive manual analysis, reconciliation and adjustments were required in order to produce financial statements for external reporting purposes.
     
  (2) Segregation of Duties: We do not currently have a sufficient complement of technical accounting and external reporting personal commensurate to support standalone external financial reporting under public company or SEC requirements. Specifically, the Company did not effectively segregate certain accounting duties due to the small size of its accounting staff, and maintain a sufficient number of adequately trained personnel necessary to anticipate and identify risks critical to financial reporting and the closing process. In addition, there were inadequate reviews and approvals by the Company’s personnel of certain reconciliations and other processes in day-to-day operations due to the lack of a full complement of accounting staff.

 

 27 
   

 

We believe that our weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting and our disclosure controls relate in part to the fact that we are a small reporting business with limited personnel. Management and the Board of Directors believe that the Company would need to allocate additional human and financial resources to address these matters, which at this time the Company does not have the financial capability to remediate. Management can give no assurances that it will ever be able to remediate such material weaknesses.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

During our most recent fiscal quarter, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a- 15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Our directors and officers are, or may become, in their individual capacities, officers, directors, controlling shareholder and/or partners of other entities engaged in a variety of businesses. Thus, there exist potential conflicts of interest including, among other things, time, efforts and corporation opportunity, involved in participation with such other business entities. While the officers and directors of our business are engaged full time in our business activities, the amount of time they devote to other business may be up to approximately 10 hours per week.

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST – CORPORATE OPPORTUNITIES

 

Certain of our officers and directors may be directors and/or principal stockholders of other companies and, therefore, could face conflicts of interest with respect to potential acquisitions. In addition, our officers and directors may in the future participate in business ventures, which could be deemed to compete directly with us. Additional conflicts of interest and non-arms length transactions may also arise in the future in the event our officers or directors are involved in the management of any firm with which we transact business. Our Board of Directors currently has no policy in place to address such possibilities.

 

Our officers and directors may actively negotiate or otherwise consent to the purchase of a portion of their common stock as a condition to, or in connection with, a proposed merger or acquisition transaction. It is anticipated that a substantial premium over the initial cost of such shares may be paid by the purchaser in conjunction with any sale of shares by our officers and directors which is made as a condition to, or in connection with, a proposed merger or acquisition transaction. The fact that a substantial premium may be paid to our officers and directors to acquire their shares creates a potential conflict of interest for them in satisfying their fiduciary duties to us and our other stockholders. Even though such a sale could result in a substantial profit to them, they would be legally required to make the decision based upon the best interests of us and our other stockholders, rather than their own personal pecuniary benefit.

 

CODE OF ETHICS

 

Due to the limited scope of our current operations, we have not adopted a corporate code of ethics that applies to our principal executive officer, principal accounting officer, or persons performing similar function.

(1) Mr. Wannemacher and Mr. Wong have no written contracts or employment agreements with the Company. The Company paid cash amounts of $10,000 to Mr. Wannemacher and $7,500 to Mr. Wong on September 18, 2018 for services rendered.
   
(2) In October 2018, the Company issued 4,000,000 and 3,000,000 of Class A Supermajority Voting Preferred Stock and 4,000,000 and 3,000,000 shares of its Class C Preferred Stock to Mr. Wannemacher and Mr. Wong, respectively. Since there was no active market for any class of the Company’s stock, the Company determined that the fair market value of the Class A shares to be $26,317 based on voting powers equal to 60% of the then-outstanding common stock at par value. The Company further deemed the value of the Class C shares to be $3,500 based on the assumption that these shares were equivalent to 35,000,000 shares of common stock at $0.0001 par value, based on the conversion rights of that class. The Company immediately recorded the values in their entirety as compensation expense under ASC 718, since the shares were fully vested and had no required service period.

 

EMPLOYMENT AND CONSULTING AGREEMENTS

 

There is no current compensation arrangement with our key officers.

 

Employment Contracts and Termination of Employment and Change-in-Control Arrangements

 

There are currently no employment contracts, compensatory plans or arrangements, including payments to be received from us, with respect to any of our directors or executive officers which would in any way result in payments to any such person because of his or her resignation, retirement or other termination of employment with us. The aforementioned consulting agreements do not provide for payments to be made as a result of any change in control of us, or a change in the person’s responsibilities following such a change in control.

 

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

 

All of the Company’s officers and/or directors will continue to be active in other companies. All officers and directors have retained the right to conduct their own independent business interests.

 

The Company does not pay any Directors fees for meeting attendance.

 

  (1) The Company’s directors are also its key executives. They do not currently receive separate compensation for their director roles.

 

OUTSTANDING EQUITY AWARDS AT FISCAL YEAR END

 

There are no outstanding equity awards held by the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer or the Company’s most highly compensated executive officers for period from February 5, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018 (the “Named Executive Officers”).

Rule 13d-3 also provides that a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who has the right to acquire beneficial ownership of such security within sixty days, including through the exercise of any option, warrant or conversion of a security. Any securities not outstanding which are subject to such warrants or conversion privileges are deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage of outstanding securities of the class owned by such person. Those securities are not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage of the class owned by any other person.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

 

Other than the stock transactions discussed above, we have not entered into any transaction nor are there any proposed transactions in which any founder, director, executive officer, significant shareholder of our Company or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing had or is to have a direct or indirect material interest.

 

There is no current compensation arrangement with our key officers.

 

Director Independence

 

Our board of directors undertook its annual review of the independence of the directors and considered whether any director had a material relationship with us or our management that could compromise his ability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out his responsibilities. As a result of this review, the board of directors determined that the directors are not independent, as such term is used under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Delray Wannemacher, as Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and Daniel Wong, as Chief Operating Officer, are not considered to be “independent.”
