CAUTIONARY NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Throughout this Annual Report, we make “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements describe future expectations, plans, results or strategies and can often be identified by the use of terminology such as “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “continue,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “target,” “should,” “could,” “potential,” “opportunity,” “goal,” or similar terminology. The forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report are generally located in the material set forth under the headings “Business,” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” but may be found in other locations as well. These statements are based upon management’s current expectations, assumptions and estimates and are not guarantees of timing, future results or performance. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated in these statements due to a variety of risks and uncertainties and other factors, including, among other things:
· | our ability to access additional financing; |
· | our ability to identify, develop or acquire, launch and enhance games that attract and retain a significant number of paying players; |
· | expectations of growth in total consumer spending on gaming and esports; |
· | our reliance on third-party platforms and our ability to track data on those platforms; |
· | our ability to adapt to, and offer games that keep pace with, changing technology and evolving industry standards; |
· | competition; |
· | our ability to attract skilled employees with creative and technical backgrounds; |
· | our dependence on independent game developers and esports content creators; |
· | protection of our proprietary information and intellectual property; |
· | security and integrity of our games and systems; |
· | security breaches, cyber-attacks or other privacy or data security incidents, challenges or disruptions; |
· | reliance on or failures in information technology and other systems; |
· | loss of revenue due to unauthorized methods of playing our games; |
· | laws and government regulations, both foreign and domestic, including those relating to data privacy and security, including with respect to the collection, storage, use, transmission, sharing and protection of personal information and other consumer data, and those laws and regulations that affect companies conducting business on the internet, including ours; |
· | influence of certain stockholders, including decisions that may conflict with the interests of other stockholders; |
· | failure to establish and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting; |
· | stock price volatility; |

· | our ability to pursue and execute new business initiatives; |
· | our expectations of future growth that will place significant demands on our management and operations; |
· | natural events and health crises that disrupt our operations or those of our providers or suppliers; and |
· | U.S. and international economic and industry conditions. |
Additional information regarding risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in forward-looking statements is included from time to time in our filings with the SEC. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and, except for our ongoing obligations under the U.S. federal securities laws, we undertake no and expressly disclaim any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
This Annual Report may contain references to industry market data and certain industry forecasts. Industry market data and industry forecasts are obtained from publicly available information and industry publications. Industry publications generally state that the information contained therein has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, but that the accuracy and completeness of that information is not guaranteed. Although we believe industry information to be accurate, it is not independently verified by us and we do not make any representation as to the accuracy of that information. In general, we believe there is less publicly available information concerning international social gaming industries than the same industries in the U.S. Some data is also based on our good faith estimates, which are derived from our review of internal surveys or data, as well as the independent sources referenced above. Assumptions and estimates of our and our industry's future performance are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors which could cause future performance to differ materially from our assumptions and estimates.

PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
General
AppSoft Technologies, Inc. (“we,” “us” or the “Company”) develops, publishes and markets mobile software applications for smartphones and tablet devices (“Apps”) and owns and operates Esportsreporter.com, a news channel for esports enthusiasts. Esports, short for “electronic sports,” is a general label that comprises competitive electronic games that gamers play against each other.
We own a portfolio comprising over 200 Apps titles including games designed to appeal to a broad spectrum of consumers. Historically, consumers have downloaded our Apps through the Apple App Store, a direct-to-consumer digital storefront. We have discontinued publishing and marketing our Apps for lack of the financial resources required to promote our products. We expect to resume publishing and marketing our Apps when resources permit, though we cannot assure investors when the resources will be available to do so, if ever. When we recommence publishing Apps, we expect to generate revenue from downloads of our paid Apps and from advertisements published on our ad supported titles. Over the last several years, we have not developed, acquired or released any new App titles because of our lack of financial resources.
During 2022, we introduced and focused our development efforts on our esports segments, which includes an e-gaming platform and a digital publication titled “Esportsreporter,” a news channel covering esports and professional gaming. We have not generated only minimal revenue from our esports platform, all of which has been derived from paid advertising. We are currently exploring other entry points into the esports market which continues to thrive and grow.
During the first quarter of 2022, we launched a video game incubator, Gamerfy.com, through which we seek to identify, develop and commercialize new games conceived by third-party developers.
Currently, we have paused App sales and publication of Esportsreporter for lack of financial resources and focus our efforts on developing App titles through our Gamerfy platform.
Our App Portfolio
Our Apps comprise game titles that are designed to appeal to a variety of age groups ranging from younger teens to adults. We offer some of our games in both a free advertisement-supported version and a paid version that does not display ads. We had been offering free ad-supported versions with the intention of building a larger customer base more quickly than we could if we charged users an up-front fee to download our games since they may be reluctant to purchase a game without first playing it. If a consumer enjoys a title, they may purchase the game and play without interruption from pop-up ads.
Gamerfy App Incubator and App Development
During the first quarter of 2022, we launched a video game incubator, Gamerfy.com, through which we seek to acquire and commercialize the next generation of game titles with particular focus on community play, the Metaverse, a virtual reality world where users can interact, game and experience things as they would in the real world; and non-fungible tokens, or NFT’s, each of which would allow us to sell into rapidly growing market segments. We are seeking to develop a pipeline of independent game designers, developers and programmers who provide us with new ideas and titles to publish.
Gamerfy provides a platform for us to identify independent game designers, developers and programmers and to monetize their Apps and ideas. In our Gamerfy model, game developers submit ideas and even partially developed games to us through the Gamerfy site. Our panel of experienced gamers select from many possible titles presented to us through the site to select the most appealing and exciting games. We explore the commercial viability of the concept and undertake an analysis of the cost to develop the App against its potential economic return. We conduct these analyses in-house. Subject to available capital, we plan to provide funding and access to studios, designers, coders and other resources to successfully launch and market new game titles. We will seek to acquire an ownership interest in the projects that we fund and commercialize. We expect Gamerfy to be the principal source of new games for us for the foreseeable future.

We believe generally that to the extent we can complete more development work on an App in house or with our resources, the greater percentage of net revenue we can realize from that App. To the extent that we do not have the capital to monetize Apps tiles that we discover, we believe that our industry experience provides us with several entry points to bring new Apps titles to a myriad of sources that have the means to commercialize and market new titles that we identify from which we expect to receive a percentage of the net sales revenue generated from that title.
Outside of the Gamerfy model, we may engage developers to create games for us or acquire titles and concepts directly from independent developers. In cases where we engage independent developers directly to create games for us, we may enter into services or consulting agreements with them that may provide us with exclusive publishing and marketing rights and require us to make development payments, to pay royalties based on product sales and to satisfy other conditions.
We may seek to acquire franchises around which we develop games. Franchises may include movies, television programs, toys and other cultural phenomena that lend themselves to gamification. We will have to obtain a license from the owner of the franchise for each App we publish that is based on a third-party franchise and we likely will be required to pay ongoing royalties to the franchise owner.
We may partner with other App publishers to develop and market new titles. These types of arrangements will allow us to defray development and marketing costs among a wider range of titles and increase our chances of publishing a successful title.
The description of our development efforts throughout this report is subject in all events to our acquiring the capital required to undertake such activities and we cannot provide investors with any assurance that will have capital available to us in the future.
The markets for our Apps are characterized by rapid technological change, particularly in the technical capabilities of mobile phones and tablets, and changing end-user preferences. Therefore, we may be required to continuously invest capital to innovate and publish new games, regularly update our games, and modify existing games for distribution on evolving platforms. We cannot assure investors that we will have the capital to develop new games and update existing games, that we will be successful in selecting new games to bring to market or that our updates to successful games will allow us to retain players.
Esports Platform
During the second quarter of 2021, we launched Esportsreporter.com, a news channel for a broad spectrum of esports and gaming. Gaming is one of the largest and fastest growing markets in the entertainment sector, with an estimated 3 billion gamers globally, and esports is the major driver of this growth. At its peak, Esportsreporter retained 15 consultants who reported on all aspects of esports, including tournaments and players.
Esportsreporter was plagued by the various negative effects of Covid and never achieved the success that management expected. Management has determined to pause its efforts to grow the Esportsreporter brand but continues to believe that the esports industry has a bright future. Management currently is reevaluating Esportsreporter’s place in the market and may revive the business in a different configuration when the Company possesses the resources to relaunch the product.
Sales, Marketing and Distribution
Historically, we have marketed, sold and distributed our games Apps through Apple’s App Store, a global direct-to-consumer digital storefront. Currently, we have paused marketing, sales and distribution efforts with respect to our Apps and Esportsreporter products. We are focusing on the development new game Apps through our Gamerfy website and regularly discuss new product concepts with independent developers. We believe that we have developed name recognition and a cadre of contacts with which we can partner in the development of new titles. We expect that any new Apps tiles that we release will be available through Apple’s App Store.

Competition
Developing, distributing and selling Apps is a highly competitive business, characterized by frequent product introductions and rapidly emerging new platforms, technologies and storefronts. With respect to competing for consumers of our game related Apps, we will compete primarily on the basis of game quality, brand and customer reviews. We will compete for promotional and digital storefront placement based on these factors, as well as our relationship with the storefront owner, historical performance, perception of sales potential and relationships with licensors of brands, properties and other content.
We believe that our small size will provide us a competitive edge for the time being and allow us to make quick decisions as to product development to take advantage of consumer preferences at a particular point in time.
With respect to our game Apps, we compete with a continually increasing number of public and well-funded private companies, including Supercell, Niantic Tencent, NetEase, Machine Zone and many others. We could also face increased competition if large companies with significant online presences such as Apple, Google, Amazon, Facebook or Yahoo, choose to enter or expand in the games space or develop competing games.
In addition, given the open nature of the development and distribution for smartphones and tablets, we also compete or will compete with a vast number of small companies and individuals in all of our segments who are able to create and launch Apps and other content for these devices using relatively limited resources and with relatively limited start-up time or expertise. As an example of the competition that we face, as of the third quarter of end of 2024, the Apple App store offered over 472,000 game Apps for download. The proliferation of titles in these open developer channels makes it difficult for us to differentiate ourselves from other developers and to compete for players and users who purchase content for their devices without substantially increasing marketing or development costs.
Most of our competitors and our potential competitors have one or more advantages over us, including:
| · | significantly greater financial and personnel resources; |
|
|
|
| · | stronger brand and consumer recognition; |
|
|
|
| · | the capacity to leverage their marketing expenditures across a broader portfolio of mobile and non-mobile products; |
|
|
|
| · | more substantial intellectual property of their own; |
|
|
|
| · | lower labor and development costs and better overall economies of scale; and |
|
|
|
| · | broader distribution and presence. |
Intellectual Property
Our intellectual property is an essential element of our business. We currently rely on a combination of trade secret and other intellectual property laws, confidentiality agreements and license agreements to protect our intellectual property. We may seek to file copyrights with respect to one or more of our titles in the future. Our employees and independent contractors are required to sign agreements acknowledging that all inventions, trade secrets, works of authorship, developments and other processes generated by them on our behalf are our property, and assigning to us any ownership that they may claim in those works. Despite our precautions, it may be possible for third parties to obtain and use without our consent intellectual property that we own or license. Unauthorized use of our intellectual property by third parties, including piracy, and the expenses incurred in protecting our intellectual property rights, may adversely affect our business.

Table of Contents |
From time to time, we may encounter disputes over rights and obligations concerning intellectual property. If we do not prevail in these disputes, we may lose some or all of our intellectual property protection, be enjoined from further sales of our Apps or other applications determined to infringe the rights of others, and/or be forced to pay substantial royalties to a third party, any of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Government Regulation
We are subject to various federal, state and international laws and regulations that affect our business, including those relating to the privacy and security of customer and employee personal information and those relating to the Internet, behavioral tracking, mobile applications, advertising and marketing activities, and sweepstakes and contests. Additional laws in all of these areas are likely to be passed in the future, which could result in significant limitations on or changes to the ways in which we can collect, use, host, store or transmit the personal information and data of our customers or employees, communicate with our customers, and deliver products and services, or may significantly increase our compliance costs. As our business expands to include new uses or collection of data that are subject to privacy or security regulations, our compliance requirements and costs will increase and we may be subject to increased regulatory scrutiny.
Employees
As of the date of this report, we had one employee, who is our president and chief executive officer, who has other business interests and who is not obligated to devote any specific number of hours to our affairs. Our officer’s attention to his other business commitments may detract from his ability to devote time to our business and this may result in conflicts of interest that could harm our business.
We rely on independent game designers, developers, programmers and other IT specialists to develop new titles and update and maintain existing ones and from time to time we may have several contractors rendering services to us. As of the date of this report, we have engaged eight third party developers to assist with App development efforts.
Our employee is not represented by a collective bargaining agreement. We consider our relations with our employee to be very good.
Smaller Reporting Company Status
We qualify as a “smaller reporting company” under Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, which is defined as a company with a public equity float of less than $75 million. As a smaller reporting company we have reduced disclosure requirements for our public filings, including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
As a smaller reporting company, as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, the Company has elected to comply with certain scaled disclosure reporting obligations, and, therefore, are not required to provide the information required by this item.
ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
None.
ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY
The Company recognizes the critical importance of cybersecurity in safeguarding sensitive information, maintaining operational resilience, and protecting its customers and stakeholders' interests. A cybersecurity policy should be designed to establish a comprehensive framework for identifying, assessing, mitigating, and responding to cybersecurity risks across the organization.

Table of Contents |
At such time as the Company possesses sufficient resources, it will establish a cybersecurity policy appropriate for our business which implements protocols to evaluate, recognize, and address significant risks, including those posed by cybersecurity threats. As part of this strategy, we expect to incorporate standard traffic monitoring tools, educate our personnel to identify and report abnormal activities, and partner with reputable service providers capable of upholding security standards equivalent to or exceeding our own.
We will seek to integrate these measures into our broader operational risk management framework aimed at minimizing exposure to unnecessary risks across our operations. We may work with outside consultants and
Cybersecurity threats have not impacted our operations, and we do not anticipate such risks materially affecting our business, strategy, financial condition, or results of operations. However, given the escalating sophistication of cyber threats, the preventive measures we adopt may not always suffice. Despite well-designed controls, we acknowledge the inability to foresee all security breaches, including those stemming from third-party misuse of artificial intelligence (“AI”) technologies, and the potential challenges in implementing timely preventive measures.
Our
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
We currently maintain a virtual office at 1225 Franklin Avenue, Suite 325, Garden City, New York at a cost of $149 per month. We believe that this space is adequate for our current and foreseeable requirements.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are not presently a party to any material litigation, nor to the knowledge of management is any litigation threatened against us that may materially affect us.
ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES
Not applicable.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
AppSoft Technologies, Inc. (“we,” “us,” or the “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on March 24, 2015. Historically, we have developed, published and marketed mobile software applications for smartphones and tablet devices (“Apps”). During the last three years, we introduced Esportsreporter, an e-gaming platform and a digital publication and online news channel covering esports and professional gaming and Gamerfy.com, through which we seek to identify, develop and commercialize new games conceived by third-party developers.
We have been constrained by our lack of financial and personnel resources from promoting our Apps and Esportsreporter businesses and have paused these operations until such time as we possess the means to move these businesses forward. Currently, we are focused on our Gamerfy operations which allow us to exploit our knowledge and experience in the Apps gaming industry.
Gamerfy provides a platform for us to identify independent game designers, developers and programmers and to monetize their Apps and ideas. We believe generally that to the extent we can complete more development work on an App in house, the greater percentage of net revenue we can realize from that App. To the extent that we do not have the capital to monetize Apps tiles that we discover, we believe that our industry experience provides us with several entry points to bring new Apps titles to a myriad of sources that have the means to commercialize and market new titles that we identify from which we expect to receive a percentage of the net sales revenue generated from that title.
Our ability to pursue and achieve our objectives is predicated on our receipt of meaningful revenue from sales of Apps that we identify and from our ability to raise capital from outside sources. We require additional capital to fund the development and commercialization of Apps that we identify. We cannot be sure that the additional capital we require will be available on acceptable terms or at all. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms or at all, we may be unable to develop or commercialize products, take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures, any of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations.
Our ability to achieve and sustain profitability will depend not only on our ability to generate meaningful our revenues, but also on our ability to manage our operating expenses. Currently, we have one full-time employee, who receives compensation when and as determined by the Board. For the foreseeable further, we expect to utilize the services of independent contractors and consultants, who we believe are readily available for our purposes, in order to manage our personnel costs. We also will continue to maintain a virtual office as long as our operations permit us to do so to control our office space overhead.
Results of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 2024 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2023
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not engage in substantive business operations, did not generate any revenue and had minimal assets. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, the Company incurred total operating expenses of $60,847, consisting principally of professional fees in connection with satisfying its reporting obligations under federal securities law, and fees to third party service providers for web development in connection with our Esports platform, and suffered a net loss of $60,846, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2023 in which the Company incurred operating expenses of $58,342 and suffered a net loss of $58,342.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate cash to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. Significant factors in the management of liquidity include funds generated by operations, the availability of credit facilities, levels of accounts receivable and accounts payable and capital expenditures.
As of December 31, 2024, we had negligible assets and total liabilities of $442,543, of which $36,193 were current liabilities payable within the next twelve months. Of our total liabilities, $442,543 is attributable to the principal and interest due under a draw down promissory note which includes borrowings from 2018 through December 31, 2024 (the “Draw Down Note”). Comparably, as of December 31, 2023, we had minimal assets and total liabilities of $420,382 of which $27,839 were current liabilities payable within the next twelve months. Of our total liabilities, $392,543 was attributable to the principal and interest due under the Draw Down Note. As of December 31, 2024, we had a working capital deficit of $36,092 as compared to a working capital deficit of $27,831 as of December 31, 2023.
Our primary requirements for liquidity and capital are to fund the growth of Esportsreporter.com as well as the development and acquisition of new Apps and for sales and marketing initiatives in connection with the launch and promotion of our games, through Gamerfy as well as for working capital to fund our general corporate needs, including filing reports under the federal securities laws. We work with independent game designers, developers and programmers who provide us with new ideas and titles to publish. We also are soliciting new games and concepts that we may acquire from third parties. When we receive an idea for a new App, we research the commercial viability of the concept, undertaking an analysis of the cost to develop the App against its potential economic return. If we determine that the App is commercially viable, we may fund the cost of development, publication and marketing. Upon completion of development, we will own the App title. Developing and publishing free-to-play games will require considerable capital to develop, maintain and update, particularly games we may seek to develop around popular movie, television, toy other cultural phenomena that lend themselves to gamification.
Since our customers pay for their purchases by credit or debit card at the time of sale, neither inventories nor receivables are relevant to our business.
Our cash on hand and cash flow from operations are not sufficient to fund our existing operations or support our desired development and acquisition strategy or required in connection with launching, marketing and promoting our games. Over the last several years, we have relied on loans from entities related to a stockholder for operating capital. In 2020, these loans were rolled up into a Drawdown Promissory Note which, as amended, provides for a total drawdown line of credit equal to $400,000 which matures on December 31, 2027. Under the Drawdown Promissory Note, as of December 31, 2024, there was an outstanding principal amount of $240,123, and $159,877 remained available for advances. The capital we have received and that remains available under the Drawdown Note is not sufficient to allow us to undertake significant development or marketing activities but will provide us with the capital required to support the Company’s minimal operations while we formulate our strategies for the next several quarters. We are seeking to identify sources of capital to fund the entire range of our operations and development activities; however, such capital may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all. Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities or through other financing mechanisms. 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 will continue to constrain our operations, including App development and marketing, and restrict our ability to grow. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may possibly have to cease our operations.

Cash Flows:
Operating Activities
Cash used in operations was $52,492 and $63,824 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. In 2023 and 2024, cash was mainly used to pay selling, general and administrative expenses and the cost of our outside professionals.
Investing Activities
We did not use any cash in investing activities during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
Financing Activities
Cash flow from financing activities was $52,585 and $63,827 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. These amounts were attributable to advances under the Drawdown Note received periodically over the course of the year.
Off-Balance Sheet and Other Arrangements
As of the date of this Annual Report, the Company does not have any off-balance sheet or similar arrangements.
Going Concern
The report of our independent auditor and Note B to the financial statements filed with this Annual Report indicate that the Company’s minimal operations to date and lack of fully established sources of revenue raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. For these reasons, our financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which assumes we will realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business. If we are unable to achieve these ends, we cannot assure you that we will be able to generate revenue to support our operations and continue operations.
The presence of the going concern explanatory paragraph suggests that we may not have sufficient liquidity, or minimum cash levels, to operate our business. Since our inception, we have incurred losses and anticipate that we will continue to incur losses until such time as our Apps generate sufficient revenue to offset our research and development, general and administrative and sales and marketing expenses. We will need to raise additional capital to fund our near-term operational plans described elsewhere in this report. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in our operational plans. We cannot be sure that the additional capital we require will be available on acceptable terms or at all. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms or at all, we may be unable to develop or enhance our services and products, take advantage of future opportunities, repay debt obligations as they become due, or respond to competitive pressures, any of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates
The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, of GAAP, requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under current circumstances in making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. We evaluate our estimates on an on-going basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Accounting policies are an integral part of our financial statements. A thorough understanding of these accounting policies is essential when reviewing our reported results of operations and our financial position. Management believes that the critical accounting policies and estimates discussed below involve the most difficult management judgments, due to the sensitivity of the methods and assumptions used. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to our financial statements included elsewhere in this report.
Please see the financial statements filed with this report for a discussion of the accounting policies and estimates that are the most critical to our financial statement.
There are no recent accounting pronouncements published after December 31, 2024 that have a material effect on the financial statements presented herein.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders, Board of Directors & Shareholders
Appsoft Technologies, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Appsoft Technologies, Inc. as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit, cash flows, and the related notes (collectively referred to as “financial statements”) for the years then ended. In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years December 31, 2024 and 2023 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note B to the financial statements, although the Company has limited operations and it has yet to attain profitability. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan in regard to these matters is also described in Note B. 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 audits 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 audits 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 included 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.
/S/
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2024.

Table of Contents |
NOTE A—BUSINESS ACTIVITY
AppSoft Technologies (the "Company”) was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada March 24, 2015. The Company’s fiscal year-end is December 31st. Appsoft is a developer of innovative games/mobile apps as well as Esports/E-gaming platforms, including Esportsreporter, a leading news channel for all things esports and professional gaming. Coverage includes events with live reporters as well as conducting face-to-face and virtual interviews with professional players in the space. We are currently building a following on digital media to generate revenue from sales, sponsorships, or merchandise from our fanbase and advertisers published on our ad supported content.
NOTE B—GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has a deficit accumulated of $
The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the 12 months from the date when these financial statements were issued. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might arise because of this uncertainty.
To address these aforementioned, management has undertaken the following initiatives: 1) enter into discussions to secure additional equity funding from current or new shareholders; 2) undertake a program to continue to monitor the Company’s ongoing working capital requirements and minimum expenditure commitments; 3) continue their focus on maintaining an appropriate level of corporate overhead in line with the Company’s available cash resources.
NOTE C—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation- The financial statements included herein were prepared under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). All adjustments have been made which in the opinion of management are necessary, normal, and recurring in nature for presentation.
Interim filings should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual report as of December 31, 2024.
Cash and Cash Equivalents- For the purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Management’s Use of Estimates- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The financial statements above reflect all the costs of doing business.
Revenue Recognition- On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, Topic 606 (“ASC 606”), requiring an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The new revenue standard replaces most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP and permits the use of either the full retrospective or modified retrospective transition method. The Company adopted this standard using the modified basis effective January 1, 2019, and given the Company's limited revenue, the modified retrospective basis has no material impact on prior years given the limited revenue.

NOTE C—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES—CONT’D
Comprehensive Income (Loss) - The Company reports Comprehensive income and its components following guidance set forth by section 220-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification which establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements. There were no items of comprehensive income (loss) applicable to the Company during the period covered in the financial statements.
Net Income per Common Share- Net loss per common share is computed pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially outstanding shares of common stock during each period. There was a total of
Deferred Taxes- The Company accounts for income taxes under Section 740-10-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets 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 the statements of operations in the period that includes the enactment date.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments- The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.
Accounts Receivable- Accounts deemed uncollectible are written off in the year they become uncollectible. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the balance in Accounts Receivable was $
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets- The Company evaluates the recoverability of its fixed assets and other assets in accordance with section 360-10-15 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Disclosure requires recognition of impairment of long-lived assets in the event the net book value of such assets exceeds its expected cash flows. If so, it is impaired and is written down to fair value, which is determined based on either discounted future cash flows or appraised values. The Company adopted the statement on inception. No impairments of these types of assets were recognized during the periods ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
Stock-Based Compensation- The Company accounts for stock-based compensation using the fair value method following the guidance set forth in section 718-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosure about Stock-Based Compensation. This section requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award- the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). No compensation cost is recognized for equity instruments for which employees do not render the requisite service.
Fair Value for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities- The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three levels of fair value hierarchy

NOTE C—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES—CONT’D
defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:
Level 1 | Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. |
Level 2 | Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. |
Level 3 | Pricing inputs that are generally unobservable inputs and not corroborated by market data. |
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and accrued expenses, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. The Company’s note payable approximates the fair value of such instrument based upon management’s best estimate of interest rates that would be available to the Company for similar financial arrangement at the periods ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
The Company does not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring or a non-recurring basis, consequently, the Company did not have any fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value at December 31, 2024, nor gains or losses are reported in the statement of operations that are attributable to the change in unrealized gains or losses relating to those assets and liabilities still held at the reporting date for the periods ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures”, which improves reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. ASU 2023-07 is effective for the Company for the year ended 2024 and early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, the guidance should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company does not expect that the guidance will have material impacts on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company is evaluating the impact that the updated standard will have on its financial statement disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”, which improves the transparency of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025 and early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, the guidance should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is evaluating the impact that the updated standard will have on its financial statement disclosures.
Other pronouncements issued by the FASB or other authoritative accounting standards groups with future effective dates are either not applicable or are not expected to be significant to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
NOTE D-SEGMENT REPORTING
The Company follows the guidance set forth by section 280-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for reporting and disclosure on operating segments of the Company. It also requires segment disclosures about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers. The Company determined that it did not have any separately reportable operating segments as of December 31, 2024 and 2023.

The Company is authorized to issue
The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 Series A Cumulative, Convertible Preferred Shares (Preferred Stock) at $0.0001 par value per share. During the period from inception (March 24, 2015) through December 31, 2016, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of preferred stock at $.05 per share to Ventureo, LLC in exchange for $50,000 in cash and Phone Apps with a fair market value of $50,000 for a total of $100,000. The shares of “Preferred Stock” are convertible, at the option of the holder, into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.005 per share. The holder of the “Preferred Stock” may not convert any portion of the “Preferred Stock” if, after giving effect to such conversion, the holder would beneficially own in excess of 4.99%, except that the holder may, by written notice to the Company, increase or decrease this percentage up to a maximum of 9.99%, provided that any such increase will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. Upon a liquidation event, the Company shall first pay to the holders of the “Preferred Stock” an amount per share equal to the Original Issue Price (i.e., $0.05 per share of Series A Preferred Stock), plus all accrued and unpaid dividends on each share of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preference Amount”). After full payment of the liquidation preference amount to the holders of the “Preferred Stock,” the Company will then distribute the remaining assets to holders of common stock, other junior preferred shares (if any) and the “Preferred Stock” on an as-if-converted-basis. The Series A Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Company’s common stock and senior to any other shares of preferred stock the Company may issue in the future.

NOTE F – INCOME TAX
The Company provides for income taxes under (now included under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC), 740), Accounting for Income Taxes. ASC 740 requires the use of an asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse.
ASC 740 requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized. For Federal income tax purposes,
No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements because after evaluating our own potential tax uncertainties,

NOTE H—WRITE-OFF OF PAYABLES
During the 1st quarter 2023, management asked legal counsel to render an opinion with respect to the collectability of an outstanding Payable carried on the books since July 2015. Reference: Laws governing the statute of limitations relating to contractual obligations in Nevada are set forth in Title 2, Civil Practice, Chapter 11, of the Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”), entitled “Limitations of Actions,” comprising NRS 11.190 through NRS 11.250.
With respect to contractual obligations, under Nevada law, a plaintiff must commence an action permitted at law within the specific time period allotted under Chapter 11 of the NRS. If the action is not brought within the allotted time period, the defendant may assert a defense that the of limitations. The statute of limitations is an affirmative defense in which the defendant introduces evidence, which, if found to be credible, will negate criminal or civil liability, even if it is proven that the defendant committed the alleged acts. The party raising the affirmative defense has the burden of proof on establishing that it applies. In a civil action in which a creditor demands payment on a written instrument evidencing a debt, the successful assertion of the statute of limitations defense will bar collection of the debt. In order to assert the statute of limitations as a defense, a defendant must specifically assert the defense in its answer. If a defendant fails to specifically plead the defense, it will be deemed to be waived. Since no action to enforce such liabilities was brought before December 31, 2022, it is our opinion that the Liability is time-barred from collection under the laws of Nevada and may be removed from the Company’s current balance sheet.
Given the foregoing, the following existing liabilities would be time barred by the statute of limitations:

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management conducted an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, who is our principal executive officer and our principal financial and accounting officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer concluded that as a result of the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2024.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for the preparation of our financial statements and related information. Management uses its best judgment to ensure that the financial statements present fairly, in material respects, our financial position and results of operations in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in the Exchange Act. These internal controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the reported financial information is presented fairly, that disclosures are adequate and that the judgments inherent in the preparation of financial statements are reasonable. There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internal controls including the possibility of human error and overriding of controls. Consequently, an ineffective internal control system can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance with respect to reporting financial information.
Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to maintaining records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that the receipts and expenditures of company assets are made in accordance with our management and directors authorization; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding the prevention of or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.
Under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) as outlined by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and guidance prepared by the Commission specifically for smaller public companies. Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2024. We have identified the following material weakness as of December 31, 2024:
| · | Segregation of duties in the handling of cash, cash receipts and cash disbursements was not formalized, and |
|
|
|
| · | Lack of an independent board to oversee management decisions and use of funds. |
The foregoing weaknesses in our internal controls continue to exist as of the date of this report.
14 |
Table of Contents |
Remediation of Material Weakness in Internal Control
Presently, it will be difficult to mitigate or eliminate the material weaknesses in our internal controls. We do not currently possess sufficient financial resources to engage the additional personnel required to alleviate the weaknesses that stem from the lack of segregation of duties in the handling of cash, cash receipts and cash disbursements was not formalized. Moreover, it is difficult for small public companies such as ours to attract qualified independent directors given the obligations and risks attendant to such serving in such capacity; hence we will continue to operate with a single board member thereby failing mitigate the weaknesses stemming from the lack of an independent board:
In the interim, management has internally formalized the procedures for segregation of duties and monitoring handling of cash, cash receipts and cash disbursements. We also are establishing a formal documented system of internal controls surrounding cash and plan to implement such systems.
Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our Company have been detected.
This annual report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our 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 rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report on Form 10-K.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

| President, Chief Executive Officer and Director |
Background Information about our Officers and Directors
Brian Kupchik has been our President, Secretary and a member of our Board since the Company’s inception. In January 2015, he co-founded Primo Media Inc. with Mr. Ingram, our former Treasurer and a director, a business development concern based in Yorktown Heights, New York, for which he served as the chief operating officer. Primo is a Latin-focused multi-channel network that connects brands with millions of Hispanic Millennials through integrated digital and mobile advertising opportunities across its network. Since January 2012, Mr. Kupchik has been a partner in 47 Media, an outsourced business development and consulting firm, where he is responsible for acquiring new business, negotiating contracts, establishing project plans and consulting regarding strategy, business development, management and other outsourced digital media services. From October 2011 to May 2012, he was a portfolio manager at Black Ocean, digital platform that has created a new generation business model that combines entrepreneurship, incubation, venture capital and investment banking practices. From October 2009 to August 2011, Mr. Kupchik was vice president of business development at MediaBrix/Smartclip, a social media focus company offering a foundation of social products including, Pulse for Facebook, Guaranteed Video View, Social Apps / Games, and Mobile, where he participated in sales, strategy, product development with a heavy focus on mobile. Mr. Kupchik is a member of OMMA, a digital media marketing organization, and the Interactive Advertising Bureau. Mr. Kupchik is involved with several children’s charitable organizations. Mr. Kupchik has been selected as a director of our Company because of his experience and background in business development in Internet based businesses.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
Our sole director, executive officer and control person has not been involved in any legal proceeding listed in Item 401(f) of Regulation S-K in the past 10 years.
Term of Office
All our directors will hold office until their successors have been elected and qualified or appointed or the earlier of their death, resignation or removal. Executive officers are appointed and serve at the board of director’s discretion.
Director Compensation
Our director does not receive any compensation for his service as a director and there is no director compensation being considered at this time.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors, executive officers and ten percent stockholders to file initial reports of ownership and announcements of changes in ownership of our common stock with the Commission. Directors, executive officers and ten percent of stockholders are also required to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms that they file. Based upon a review of these filings, we believe all required Section 16(a) reports were made during 2024.
Board Composition
Our bylaws provide that the size of our Board will be determined from time to time by the resolution of our Board. Currently, our Board comprises one member.
Election of Directors
Our bylaws provide that a majority vote of our stockholders elect the members of our Board.
Corporate Governance
Our Board has not established any committees, including an audit committee, a compensation committee or a nominating committee, or any committee performing similar functions. The functions of those committees are being undertaken by our Board. Because we do not have any independent directors, our Board believes that the establishment of committees of our Board would not provide any benefits to our Company and could be considered more form than substance.
16 |
Table of Contents |
We do not have a policy regarding the consideration of any director candidates that may be recommended by our stockholders, including the minimum qualifications for director candidates, nor have our officers and directors established a process for identifying and evaluating director nominees. We have not adopted a policy regarding the handling of any potential recommendation of director candidates by our stockholders, including the procedures to be followed. Our officers and directors have not considered or adopted any of these policies as we have never received a recommendation from any stockholder for any candidate to serve on our Board.
Given our relative size and lack of directors’ and officers’ insurance coverage, we do not anticipate that any of our stockholders will make such a recommendation in the near future. While there have been no nominations of additional directors proposed, in the event such a proposal is made, all current members of our Board will participate in the consideration of director nominees.
As with most small, early-stage companies until such time as our Company further develops our business, achieves a stronger revenue base and has sufficient working capital to purchase directors’ and officers’ insurance, we do not have any immediate prospects to attract independent directors. When we are able to expand our Board to include one or more independent directors, we intend to establish an audit committee of our Board. It is our intention that one or more of these independent directors will also qualify as an audit committee financial expert. Our securities are not quoted on an exchange that has requirements that a majority of our Board members be independent and we are not currently otherwise subject to any law, rule or regulation requiring that all or any portion of our Board include “independent” directors, nor are we required to establish or maintain an audit committee or other committees of our Board.
Meetings of the Board
During fiscal 2024, our Board did not hold any in-person or telephonic meetings and took action by written consent four times.
Committees of our Board of Directors
Our securities are not quoted on an exchange that has requirements that a majority of our Board members be independent and we are not currently otherwise subject to any law, rule or regulation requiring that all or any portion of our Board include “independent” directors, nor are we required to establish or maintain an Audit Committee or other committees of our Board.
Our Board does not have standing audit, compensation or nominating committees. Our Board does not have a member that qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K. Our Board does not believe committees are necessary based on the size of our company, the current levels of compensation to corporate officers and voting control lies with our current Board. Our Board will consider establishing audit, compensation and nominating committees at the appropriate time.
The entire Board participates in the consideration of compensation issues and of director nominees. Candidates for director nominees will be reviewed in the context of the current composition of the Board and our operating requirements and the long-term interests of our stockholders. In conducting this assessment, the Board will consider professional and business skills, experience, expertise, diversity, judgment and such other factors as it deems appropriate given the current needs of the Board and our company, to maintain a balance of knowledge, experience and capability.
Nomination Process
During the 2024 fiscal year, we did not effect any material changes to the procedures by which our stockholders may recommend nominees to our Board. Our Board does not have a policy with regards to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by our stockholders. Our Board has determined that it is in the best position to evaluate our company’s requirements as well as the qualifications of each candidate when the Board considers a nominee for a position on our Board. If stockholders wish to recommend candidates directly to our Board, they may do so by sending communications to the President of our Company at the address on the cover of this Annual Report.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires directors, executive officers and holders of more than 10% of an equity security registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act to file various reports with the SEC. Our equity securities are not registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act, so our directors, executive officers and 10% holders are not subject to Section 16(a).
Code of Ethics
We have adopted a code of business conduct and ethics that applies to all of our employees, officers and directors, including those officers responsible for financial reporting. The code of business conduct and ethics is available on our website at www.appsofttechnologies.com. We intend to post any amendments to the code, or any waivers of its requirements, on our website. The contents of our website are not incorporated by reference into this Annual Report.
Insider Trading Policy
We have not adopted an insider trading policy and procedures governing the purchase, sale, and/or other dispositions of the registrant’s securities by directors, officers and employees, or the registrant itself, that are reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and any listing standards applicable to the registrant. We expect that will adopt such a policy if our stock is regularly publicly trades.

Our Board currently consists of one member, who does not qualify as an independent director in accordance with Rule 5605 of the NASDAQ Listing Rules. The NASDAQ independence definition includes a series of objective tests, including whether the director is not, and has not been for at least three years, one of our employees and that neither the director, nor any of his family members has engaged in various types of business dealings with us. In addition, our Board has not made a subjective determination as to each director that no relationships exist which, in the opinion of our Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director, though such subjective determination is required by the NASDAQ rules. Had our Board made these determinations, our Board would have reviewed and discussed information provided by our sole director with regard to his business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate to us and our management.
