  NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Nature of the Business
 
Virtual Piggy, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware on February 11, 2008.   
 
The Company is a technology company that seeks to deliver an online ecommerce solution for the family. The Company’s system allows parents and their children to manage, allocate funds and track their expenditures, savings and charitable giving online. The system is designed to allow a minor to transact online without a credit card by gaining the parents’ permission ahead of time and allowing the parent to set up the rules of use.

The Company believes that a future alternative for Virtual Piggy, Inc. will revolve around the FinTech industry with a partner-first go to market model in which established payments market leaders and vertical market participants can incorporate and integrate the Company’s platform into co-branded payments solutions targeting youth and family.  The Company also believes this approach will enable the Company to reduce expenses while broadening its reach.

Within this affinity partner model, the Company will be incorporating licensing fees and customization services.  This should enable the company to begin creating shareholder value above and beyond consumer transaction fees.

The Company is also analyzing specific components of our technology for individual monetization as well as exploring opportunities in the Business to Business (“B2B”) realm.

In addition, the Company is currently adding enhancements to the platform, to enable the platform to update itself with any new regulations that are passed, in order to reduce costs associated with manually updating the platform.  This will also enable the Company to market the platform to other companies in need of a solution to comply with COPPA or other regulatory requirements.
 
Our primary strategic objective over the next 12 -18 months is to increase the value of the underlying technical assets of the company by incorporating new essential functionality that will act as a key differentiator in the financial services market.  These new technology advances will also augment our current portfolio of patents that give the company its competitive advantage.  In addition, the company is redirecting its marketing efforts to increase its user base by entering into affinity marketing agreements with companies targeting specific user communities.  This will increase our potential user community while bringing in substantial development and licensing revenue for those sectors.  This approach will greatly reduce the expense associated with direct marketing efforts.
    
The Company’s principal office is located in Sunnyvale, California and in 2013 the Company opened an office in London, England to support the sales and marketing efforts in Europe and the development of its mobile applications, which was closed in September 2015.

On December 3, 2015, Finity, Inc. was incorporated as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.  On December 11, 2015, Finity, Inc. changed its name to Finitii, Inc.  Finitii, Inc. was established as a not for profit entity for the purpose of teaching children financial literacy.
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The accompanying unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 as filed with the SEC. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Virtual Piggy, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Finitii, Inc. (collectively the “Company”), have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure additional financing to operationalized the Company’s current technology before another company develops similar technology to compete with the Company.
 
 
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

As of March 31, 2016 and for the period then ended, there were no recently adopted accounting pronouncements that had a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
 
As of March 31, 2016, there are no recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted which would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements through 2017.
 
NOTE 2 – MANAGEMENT PLANS

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  The Company has incurred significant losses and experienced negative cash flow from operations since inception.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Since inception, the Company has focused on developing and implementing its business plan.  The Company believes that its existing cash resources will not be sufficient to sustain operations during the next twelve months.    The Company currently needs to generate revenue in order to sustain its operations.  In the event that the Company cannot generate sufficient revenue to sustain its operations, the Company will need to reduce expenses or obtain financing through the sale of debt and/or equity securities.  The issuance of additional equity would result in dilution to existing shareholders.  If the Company is unable to obtain additional funds when they are needed or if such funds cannot be obtained on terms acceptable to the Company, the Company would likely be unable to execute upon the business plan or pay costs and expenses as they are incurred, which would have a material, adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Company’s current monetization model is to license our platform to merchants to enable them to provide COPPA compliant services for themselves and their customers.

As of May 13, 2016, the Company has a cash position of approximately $44,000.  Based upon the current cash position and the Company’s planned expense run rate, management believes the Company has funds currently to finance its operations through May 2016.

NOTE 3 – ACCOUNTS PAYABLE – RELATED PARTIES

NOTE 9 – STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS
 
During 2008, the Board of Directors (“Board”) of the Company adopted the 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (“2008 Plan”) that was approved by the shareholders.  Under the Plan, the Company is authorized to grant options to purchase up to 25,000,000 shares of common stock to any officer, other employee or director of, or any consultant or other independent contractor who provides services to the Company.  The Plan is intended to permit stock options granted to employees under the 2008 Plan to qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Incentive Stock Options”).  All options granted under the 2008 Plan, which are not intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options are deemed to be non-qualified options (“Non-Statutory Stock Options”).  As of March 31, 2016, options to purchase 6,101,664 shares of common stock have been issued and are unexercised, and 9,048,336 shares are available for grants under the 2008 Plan.  
 
During 2013, the Board adopted the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (“2013 Plan”), which was approved by stockholders at the 2013 annual meeting of stockholders.  Under the 2013 Plan, the Company is authorized to grant awards of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards of up to an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of common stock to any officer, employee, director or consultant.  The 2013 Plan is intended to permit stock options granted to employees under the 2013 Plan to qualify as Incentive Stock Options.  All options granted under the 2013 Plan, which are not intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options are deemed to be Non-Statutory Stock Options.  As of March 31, 2016, under the 2013 Plan grants of restricted stock and options to purchase 2,105,000 shares of common stock have been issued and are unvested or unexercised, and 2,895,000 shares of common stock remain available for grants under the 2013 Plan.  
 
The 2008 Plan and 2013 Plan are administered by the Board or its compensation committee, which determines the persons to whom awards will be granted, the number of awards to be granted, and the specific terms of each grant, including the vesting thereof, subject to the terms of the applicable Plan.
 
In connection with Incentive Stock Options, the exercise price of each option may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of the grant (or 110% of the fair market value in the case of a grantee holding more than 10% of the outstanding stock of the Company).
 
Prior to January 1, 2014, volatility in all instances presented is the Company’s estimate of volatility that is based on the volatility of other public companies that are in closely related industries to the Company.  Beginning January 1, 2014, volatility in all instances presented is the Company’s estimate of volatility that is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock history.

 For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company expensed $69,407 and $305,432 with respect to the options.

As of March 31, 2016 there was $499,572 of unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding stock options. This amount is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.4 years. To the extent the actual forfeiture rate is different from what the Company has estimated, stock-based compensation related to these awards will be different from the Company’s expectations. The difference between the stock options exercisable at March 31, 2016 and the stock options exercisable and expected to vest relates to management’s estimate of options expected to vest in the future.

Overview
 
Virtual Piggy, Inc. (the “Company,” “we”, or “us”) was incorporated in Delaware on February 11, 2008 under the name Chimera International Group, Inc.  On April 4, 2008, we amended our certificate of incorporation and changed our name to Moggle, Inc.  On August 22, 2011, we filed a Certificate of Ownership with the Secretary of State of Delaware, pursuant to which the Company’s newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary, Virtual Piggy Incorporated was merged into and with the Company (the “Merger”). In connection with the Merger and in accordance with Section 253 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the name of the Company was changed from “Moggle, Inc.” to “Virtual Piggy, Inc.”  Our principal offices are located at 100 S. Murphy Avenue, Suite 200, Sunnyvale, California 94086 and our telephone number is (310) 853-1950.
 
On December 3, 2015, the Company incorporated a newly-formed wholly-owned Subsidiary, Finity, Inc.  On December 11, 2015, the Company filed a Statement of Correction with the Pennsylvania Department of State, to change the name of Finity, Inc. to Finitii, Inc.  The purpose of Finitii, Inc. is to teach children financial responsibility as a not for profit organization.
 
Management believes that a future alternative for Virtual Piggy, Inc. will revolve around the FinTech industry with a partner-first go to market model in which established payments market leaders and vertical market participants can incorporate and integrate the company’s platform into co-branded payments solutions targeting youth and family.  Management believes this approach will enable the company to reduce expenses while broadening its reach.
 
Within this partner-first model, the company will be incorporating licensing fees and customization services.  This should enable the company to begin creating shareholder value above and beyond consumer transaction fees.
 
In addition, we are analyzing specific components of our technology for individual monetization as well as exploring opportunities in the Business to Business (“B2B”) realm.
 
To date we have not generated material revenues.  For the first quarter of 2016, we earned revenue by charging a percentage to the merchant or gaming publisher for each transaction processed, which continued until March 2016, when the decision was made to discontinue the Oink product offering.  As we proceed through 2016, we expect to generate additional revenue streams by generating licensing and customization fees from our co-branding partners.
 
The Company is currently adding enhancements to the platform, to enable the platform to update itself with any new regulations that are passed, in order to reduce costs associated with manually updating the platform.  This will enable the Company to market the platform to other companies in need of a solution to comply with COPPA or other regulatory requirements.

 
Strategic Outlook
 
We believe that the virtual goods market and the FinTech industry will continue to grow over the long term.  Within the market and industry, we intend to provide services to allow transactions with children in compliance with COPPA and similar international privacy laws.  We believe that this particular opportunity is relatively untapped and will seek to be a leading provider of online transactions for children.
 
Sustained spending on technology, our ability to raise additional financing, the continued growth of the FinTech industry, and compliance with regulatory and reporting requirements are all external conditions that may affect our ability to execute our business plan.  In addition, the FinTech industry is intensely competitive, and most participants have longer operating histories, significantly greater financial, technical, marketing, customer service and other resources, and greater name recognition.  In addition, certain potential customers, particularly large organizations, may view our small size and limited financial resources as a negative even if they prefer our offering to those of our competitors.
 
 
Our primary strategic objective over the next 12 -18 months is to increase the value of the underlying technical assets of the company by incorporating new essential functionality that will act as a key differentiator in the financial services market.  These new technology advances will also augment our current portfolio of patents that give the company its competitive advantage.  In addition, the company is redirecting its marketing efforts to increase its user base by entering into affinity marketing agreements with companies targeting specific user communities.  This will increase our potential user community while bringing in substantial development and licensing revenue for those sectors.  This approach will greatly reduce the expense associated with direct marketing efforts.
 
Within this affinity partner model, the Company is incorporating licensing fees and customization services.  This should enable the Company to begin creating shareholder value above and beyond consumer transaction fees.
 
As our service grows, we intend to hire additional information technology staff to maintain our product offerings and develop new products to increase our market share.
 
We believe that our near-term success will depend particularly on our ability to develop customer awareness and confidence in our service.  Since we have limited capital resources, we will need to closely manage our expenses and conserve our cash by continually monitoring any increase in expenses and reducing or eliminating unnecessary expenditures. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties encountered by companies at an early stage of development, particularly given that we operate in new and rapidly evolving markets, that we have limited financial resources, and face an uncertain economic environment. We may not be successful in addressing such risks and difficulties.
 
 
Results of Operations
 
Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 and 2015
 
The following discussion analyzes our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015. The following information should be considered together with our condensed financial statements for such period and the accompanying notes thereto.
 
Net Revenue/Net Loss
 
We have not generated significant revenue since our inception. For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, we generated sales of $1,025 and $4,109.  For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, we had a net loss of $2,168,945 and $3,179,186. 

Sales and Marketing
 
Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2016 were $35,103 as compared to $889,237 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, a decrease of $854,134. The Company closed its sales office in England in September of 2015 and reduced the sales force in 2015 that was not replenished in 2016, as the Company focuses on enhancements to the platform.

Product Development
 
Product development expenses were $247,573 and $590,870 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, a decrease of $343,297. The decrease is related to cost containment initiatives, while still emphasizing enhancements to the platform, which will benefit the Company.

Integration and Customer Support
 
Integration and customer support expenses decreased $27,600 to $34,238 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from $61,838 for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The decrease was a result of the Company scaling back its prepaid card business, thus requiring less customer support.
 
 
General and Administrative Expenses
 
General and administrative expenses increased $225,976 to $1,718,226 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from $1,492,252 for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The increase resulted from the revaluation of warrants for the three months ended March 31, 2016 exceeding the revaluation of warrants for the three months ended March 31, 2015.

Strategic Consulting
 
Strategic consulting expenses were $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, a decrease of $135,000 from the three months ended March 31, 2015. The Company did not require any strategic consulting for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Interest Expense
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company incurred interest expense of $142,231 as compared to $14,247 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, an increase of $127,984. The increase in interest expense was a result of issuing short term notes in latter part of 2015 and continuing this process in the first quarter of 2016, in order to continue its operations.

 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of May 13, 2016, we had cash on hand of approximately $44 ,000 .
 
Net cash used in operating activities decreased $1,828,535 to $449,338 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 as compared to $2,277,873 for the three months ended March 31, 2015.  The decrease resulted primarily from a decline in the net loss from operations as explained previously.
 
Net cash used in investing activities was $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to $33,170 for the three months ended March 31, 2015.  As a result of cost containment measures, the Company did not invest in any capital expenditures.
 
Net cash provided by financing activities decreased by $1,516,500 to $483,500 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 from $2,000,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2015.  Cash provided by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2016, consisted of short-term notes payable to provide capital to continue operations.
 
Subsequent to March 31, 2016, the Company raised gross proceeds of $170 ,000  through the issuance of notes payable.
 
As we have not realized significant revenues since our inception, we have financed our operations through public and private offerings of debt and equity securities.  We do not currently maintain a line of credit or term loan with any commercial bank or other financial institution.  

Since our inception, we have focused on developing and implementing our business plan.  We believe that our existing cash resources will not be sufficient to sustain our operations during the next twelve months.    We currently need to generate sufficient revenues to support our cost structure to enable us to pay ongoing costs and expenses as they are incurred, finance the development of our platform, and execute the business plan.  If we cannot generate sufficient revenue to fund our business plan, we intend to seek to raise such financing through the sale of debt and/or equity securities.  The issuance of additional equity would result in dilution to existing shareholders.  If we are unable to obtain additional funds when they are needed or if such funds cannot be obtained on terms acceptable to us, we will be unable to execute upon the business plan or pay costs and expenses as they are incurred, which would have a material, adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
Even if we are successful in generating sufficient revenue or in raising sufficient capital in order to complete the platform, our ability to continue in business as a viable going concern can only be achieved when our revenues reach a level that sustains our business operations.  The launch of the platform is expected in the fourth quarter of 2016, however, we do not project that significant revenue will be developed until later in 2017. There can be no assurance that we will raise sufficient proceeds, or any proceeds, for us to implement fully our proposed business plan.  Moreover there can be no assurance that even if platform is developed and launched, that we will generate revenues sufficient to fund our operations.  In either such situation, we may not be able to continue our operations and our business might fail.
 

As of May 13, 2016, the Company has a cash position of approximately $44,000.  Based upon the current cash position and the Company’s planned expense run rate, management believes the Company will not be able to finance its operations through May 2016.
 
The foregoing forward-looking information was prepared by us in good faith based upon assumptions that we believe to be reasonable. No assurance can be given, however, regarding the attainability of the projections or the reliability of the assumptions on which they are based. The projections are subject to the uncertainties inherent in any attempt to predict the results of our operations, especially where new products and services are involved. Certain of the assumptions used will inevitably not materialize and unanticipated events will occur. Actual results of operations are, therefore, likely to vary from the projections and such variations may be material and adverse to us. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that such results will be achieved. Moreover due to changes in technology, new product announcements, competitive pressures, system design and/or other specifications we may be required to change the current plans. 

 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
As of March 31, 2016, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

 
Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements are impacted by the accounting policies used and the estimates and assumptions made by management during their preparation. A complete summary of these policies is included in Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 . We have identified below the accounting policies that are of particular importance in the presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows and which require the application of significant judgment by management.
 
Stock-based Compensation

We have adopted the fair value recognition provisions Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) 718. In addition, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 “ Share-Based Payment ” (“SAB 107”) in March, 2005, which provides supplemental FASB ASC 718 application guidance based on the views of the SEC. Under FASB ASC 718, compensation cost recognized includes compensation cost for all share-based payments granted beginning January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 718.

We have used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the option fair values. The option-pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are, expected stock price volatility, the expected pre-vesting forfeiture rate and the expected option term (the amount of time from the grant date until the options are exercised or expire).

All issuances of stock options or other equity instruments to non-employees as consideration for goods or services received by the Company are accounted for based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.  Non-employee equity based payments that do not vest immediately upon grant are recorded as an expense over the service period, as if the Company had paid cash for the services.  At the end of each financial reporting period, prior to the completion of the services, the fair value of the equity based payments will be re-measured and the non-cash expense recognized during the period will be adjusted accordingly.  Since the fair value of equity based payments granted to non-employees is subject to change in the future, the amount of the future expense will include fair value re-measurements until the equity based payments are fully vested or the service is completed.
 
   
Revenue Recognition

In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition (Codified in FASB ASC 605), we will recognize revenue when (i) persuasive evidence of a customer or distributor arrangement exists or acceptance occurs, (ii) a retailer, distributor or wholesaler receives the goods, (iii) the price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability of the sales revenues is reasonably assured. Subject to these criteria, we have generally recognized revenue from Oink and ParentMatch at the time of the sale of the associated product.

(b)         Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, it is expressly understood that at any time the Company (or any successor or related employer treated as the service recipient for purposes of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A) is publicly traded on an established securities market (as defined for purposes of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A), if a payment or provision of an amount or benefit constituting a deferral of compensation is to be made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to the Employee on account of a Separation from Service at a time when the Employee is a Specified Employee (as defined for purposes of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i)), such deferred compensation shall not be paid to the Employee prior to the date that is six (6) months after the Separation from Service or as otherwise permitted under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-3(i)(2).

7.              Representations, Warranties and Covenants .  The Consultant hereby represents, warrants and covenants to the Company as follows:
