Summary of Risk Factors

Our business is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including those in the section entitled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus. These significant risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

Corporate Information

We were incorporated in Nevada in November 2003. Our corporate headquarters are located at 1715 N. Gower St., Los Angeles, California 90028, and our main telephone number is (323) 965-1650. Our website address is www.thetmgrp.com. The information on our website is not part of this prospectus. We have included our website address as a factual reference and do not intend it to be an active link to our website.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our Company is very speculative and involves a very high degree of risk. Accordingly, investors should carefully consider the following risk factors, as well as other information set forth in this report, in making an investment decision with respect to our securities. We have sought to identify what we believe to be all material risks and uncertainties to our business and ownership of our common stock, but we cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any of such risks or uncertainties may be realized nor can we guarantee that we have identified all possible risks and uncertainties that might arise. Additional risks and uncertainties that we do not currently know about or that we currently believe are immaterial may also harm our business operations. If any of these risks or uncertainties occurs, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Risks Relating to Our Business

We have a history of significant losses from operations in recent years which may continue, and which may harm our ability to obtain financing and continue our operations.

Our consolidated financial statements reflect that we have incurred significant losses since inception, including net losses of $4,544,000, $14,447,000, and $6,041,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2020 and the years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

As of December 31, 2020, we had an accumulated deficit of $175,436,000 and negative working capital of $14,928,000. We need to improve our ability to achieve business profitability, our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from our operations and our ability to obtain additional funding in the short term to meet our operating needs and the current portion of our required obligation payments. We believe that we will have sufficient capital from this offering to finance our proposed business operations until we achieve positive cash flows.

Our discontinued operations prior to our entry into a merger agreement with Troika Design Group, Inc. in June 2017 (the “Troika Merger”) and our June 2018 acquisition of all of the equity interests (the “Mission Acquisition”) of Mission Culture LLC and Mission-Media Holdings Limited (such entities, collectively, “Mission”). caused disruptions to our business, have diluted our stockholders and may harm our business, financial condition or operating results.

The Troika Merger and the Mission Acquisition (collectively, the “Acquisitions”) subjected us to a number of risks, including, but not limited to, the consideration for the Acquisitions and share issuances to our preferred stockholders, resulted in substantial dilution to our existing stockholders. Additional time may be required for the market positions of such acquired companies to improve as planned. The combined operations of the Company and such entities have placed significant demands on the Company’s management, technical, financial and other resources, as well as the key personnel and other personnel of such acquired companies. Customers of such acquired companies may still terminate their relationships with such acquired companies. As a result of the Acquisitions, we have experienced additional financial and accounting challenges and complexities in areas such as financial reporting. We may assume or be held liable for risks and liabilities as a result of our Acquisitions, some of which we may not have been able to discover during our due diligence or adequately adjust for in our acquisition arrangements, as was the case with the Mission Acquisition. Our ongoing business and management’s attention have been disrupted or diverted by transition or integration issues and the complexity of managing geographically or culturally diverse enterprises. In addition, we may incur one-time write-offs or restructuring charges in connection with any future acquisitions. We may acquire goodwill and other intangible assets that are subject to amortization or impairment tests, which could result in future charges to earnings. We have incurred significant time and expense in connection with litigation arising from the Mission Acquisition. See “Business – Legal Proceedings.”

Our combined operations have only a limited operating history, which makes it difficult to evaluate an investment in our securities.

Our combined operations have only a limited operating history since the Troika Merger in June 2017 upon which our business, financial condition and operating results may be evaluated. As a result of the Acquisitions, as well as any potential acquisitions described herein, we face a number of risks encountered by combined entities, including our ability to:

We may not be successful in addressing or mitigating these risks and uncertainties, and if we are not successful our business could be significantly and adversely affected.

Expansion of our operations internationally has required significant management attention and resources, involves additional risks and may be unsuccessful.

We have limited experience with operating internationally since June 2018, or providing our services outside of the United States and United Kingdom, and if we choose to expand into further international markets, we would need to adapt to different local cultures, standards and policies. The business model and technology we employ and the merchandise we currently offer may not be successful with consumers outside of the United States or the United Kingdom. Furthermore, to succeed with clients in other international locations, it likely will be necessary to establish satellite offices in foreign markets and hire local employees in those international centers, and we may have to invest in these facilities before proving we can successfully run foreign operations. We may not be successful in expanding into international markets or in generating revenue and/or profits from foreign operations for a variety of reasons, including:

Most of our clients may terminate their relationships with us on short notice.

Our transactional clients, which account for the vast majority of our revenue worldwide, typically use our services on an order-by-order project basis rather than under long-term contracts. These clients have no obligation to continue using our services and may stop purchasing from us at any time.

The volume and type of services we provide our clients may vary from year to year and could be reduced if a client were to change its outsourcing or procurement strategy. If a significant number of our transactional clients elect to terminate or not to renew their engagements with us or if the volume of their orders decreases, our business, operating results and financial condition could suffer.

Acquiring new clients and retaining existing clients depends on our ability to avoid and manage conflicts of interest arising from other client relationships.

Our ability to acquire new clients and to retain existing clients may, in some cases, be limited by clients’ perceptions of, or policies concerning, conflicts of interest arising from other client relationships. If we are unable to maintain multiple agencies to manage multiple client relationships and avoid potential conflicts of interests, our business, results of operations and financial position may be adversely affected.

The loss of several of our largest clients could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial position.

Clients generally are able to reduce or cancel current or future spending on advertising, marketing and corporate communications projects at any time on short notice for any reason. For the six months ended December 31, 2020, six (6) customers accounted for 53.3% of our gross revenues. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, six (6) customers accounted for 45.1% of our gross revenues. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, six (6) customers accounted for 52.7% of our gross revenues. A significant reduction in spending on our services by our largest clients, or the loss of several of our largest clients, if not replaced by new clients or an increase in business from existing clients, would adversely affect our revenue and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial position.

Clients periodically review and change their advertising, marketing, branding and corporate communications requirements and relationships. If we are unable to remain competitive or retain key clients, our business, results of operations and financial position may be adversely affected.

We operate in a highly competitive industry. Key competitive considerations for retaining existing clients and winning new clients include our ability to develop solutions that meet client needs in a rapidly changing environment, the quality and effectiveness of our services and our ability to serve clients efficiently, particularly large multinational clients, on a broad geographic basis. Some of our newer services require us to persuade prospective customers, or customers of our existing services, to purchase newer services in substitution of those of a competitor. While many of our client relationships are long-standing, from time to time clients put their advertising, marketing and corporate communications business up for competitive review. The incumbent competitor may have the ability to significantly discount its services or enter into long-term agreements, which would further impede our ability to increase our revenues. We have won and lost accounts as a result of these reviews. To the extent that we are not able to remain competitive or retain key clients, our revenue may be adversely affected, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial position.

Adverse economic conditions, a reduction in client spending, a deterioration in the credit markets or a delay in client payments could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial position.

Economic conditions have a direct impact on our business, results of operations and financial position. Adverse global or regional economic conditions pose a risk that clients may reduce, postpone or cancel spending on advertising, marketing and corporate communications projects. Such actions would reduce the demand for our services and could result in a reduction in revenue, which would adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial position. A contraction in the availability of credit may make it more difficult for us to meet our working capital requirements. In addition, a disruption in the credit markets could adversely affect our clients and could cause them to delay payment for our services or take other actions that would negatively affect our working capital. In such circumstances, we may need to obtain additional financing to fund our day-to-day working capital requirements, which may not be available on favorable terms, or at all. Even if we take action to respond to adverse economic conditions, reductions in revenue and disruptions in the credit markets by aligning our cost structure and more efficiently managing our working capital, such actions may not be effective.

Our financial condition and results of operations for fiscal year 2020 have been adversely affected by COVID-19, and we expect that our financial condition and results of operations for the fiscal year 2021 will also be adversely affected.

In December 2019, COVID-19 surfaced in Wuhan, China. The extent to which COVID-19impacts our results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the coronavirus and the actions to contain the coronavirus or treat its impact, among others.

We operate servicing domestic and international clients. In the aggregate, revenue from outside of the United States represented 66% and 62% of our Company’s total revenue for the six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Revenue from outside of the United States represented 35.2% and 38.5% of our Company’s total revenue for the last two fiscal years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. For some of the services we sell, including experiential and event services provided by our Mission subsidiaries, we have historically provided services that were primarily involved with engagement of consumers in public venues. As a result of COVID-19, wherever we, our suppliers, or our clients operate, we have been adversely affected in our experiential business. Following the early 2020 outbreak of COVID-19, many of clients temporarily halted marketing and advertising activities and normal business operations. The spread of COVID-19 to the United States, our largest market, has raised concerns about the lasting effects of a recession, and has created substantial uncertainty about the expectations for marketing spend in the near term. In addition, not only are our clients impacted, but our vendors are similarly impacted and operating in a reduced manner, further hampering the ability to render services to clients. Due to temporary travel restrictions imposed by various countries in Europe and elsewhere, including the United Kingdom where one of our Mission subsidiaries is based, we have faced delays in our ability to provide services, while visa applications for certain employees have been complicated due to the inability to travel or attend certain face-to-face meetings. Moreover, we have historically relied on in-person selling efforts by our sales executives to secure long-term client contracts. In the short-term, precautionary measures taken by many companies around the world to limit in-person workplace contact in order to reduce the potential for employee exposure to COVID-19 could extend the time required to secure and cause us to lose new client contracts. Additionally, contracted parties may use the current pandemic as reason to invoke so called “force majeure” clauses in order to modify or cancel performance under the applicable agreement. These clauses vary depending on the agreement and will need a case by case review and disputes may arise from such contentions. The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak continues to impact the Company’s results will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information that may emerge concerning the severity of the virus and the actions to contain its impact. The Company’s revenue has declined by $16.2 million from $40.8 million to $24.6 million in the fiscal years ended June 30, 2019 and 2020, respectively, and by $8.5 million from $17.1 million to $8.6 million in the six (6) months ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, respectively. Based on information provided by business unit leaders, the Company believes that approximately $13.0 million or 80.2% of the $16.2 million decrease in revenue in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 is directly attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company continues to quantify with its business leaders how much of the decline in revenue for the six months ended December 31, 2020 in comparison to the six months ended December 31, 2019 was related to the outbreak, however the Company believes that the $3.3 million decrease in revenue is substantially due to the pandemic. If our business continues to be materially adversely affected by the outbreak of COVID-19, it would have a material adverse impact on our operating results and/or financial condition.

We must successfully manage the demand, supply, and operational challenges associated with the actual or perceived effects of a disease outbreak, including epidemics, pandemics, including COVID-19, as described above, or similar widespread public health concerns and associated government responses.

Our business has been negatively impacted by the fear of exposure to or actual effects of a disease outbreak, epidemic, pandemic, including COVID-19, as described above, or similar widespread public health concern, such as reduced travel or recommendations or mandates from governmental authorities to avoid large gatherings or to self-quarantine or similar governmental responses. These impacts may include, but are not limited to:

Despite our efforts to manage and remedy these impacts to the Company, their ultimate impact also depends on factors beyond our knowledge or control, including the duration and severity of any such outbreak as well as third-party actions taken to contain its spread and mitigate its public health effects be those taken by governments or private enterprise (both voluntary and required).

If any of our key clients fail to pay for our services, our profitability would be negatively impacted.

In general, we take full title and risk of loss for the products we procure from our suppliers. Our obligation to pay our suppliers is not contingent upon receipt of payment from our clients. If any of our key clients fails to pay for our services, our profitability would be negatively impacted.

We require proceeds of this offering to make potential acquisitions, as well as additional capital to support business growth, and this capital may not be available on acceptable terms or at all.

We require the proceeds of this offering to make any future acquisitions subject to various conditions precedent including, but not limited to, satisfactory completion of due diligence, negotiation and execution of a definitive purchase agreement and audit of their financial statements. We intend to continue to make investments to support our business growth and may require additional funds to respond to business challenges, including the need to develop new products or enhance our existing products, enhance our operating infrastructure and acquire complementary businesses and technologies.

Accordingly, following this offering, we expect to engage in equity and/or debt financings to secure additional funds when necessary. If we raise additional funds through further issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue will be expected to have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of holders of our common stock. Any debt financing secured by us in the future could include restrictive covenants relating to our capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. In addition, we may not be able to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to us or at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, our ability to continue to support our business growth and to respond to business challenges could be significantly limited. We may have to significantly delay, scale back or discontinue the development and/or the commercialization of one or more of our services. Accordingly, any failure to raise adequate capital in a timely manner would be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition and future growth prospects.

We rely on our management team and expect to need additional personnel to grow our business; the loss of one or more senior managers or the inability to attract and retain qualified personnel could harm our business.

Our success and future growth depend to a significant degree on the skills and continued services of our management team, in particular, the services of Robert Machinist, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Dan Pappalardo, President of Troika Design Group, Inc. and Kevin Dundas, CEO of Mission, which are our two operating subsidiaries. While we have entered into an employment agreement with Messrs. Machinist and Pappalardo, there can be no assurance that we will be able to retain the services of each of these persons. The loss of one of these persons and/or other members of our management team who have signed employment and consulting agreements would materially adversely affect us. In such an event, we could face substantial difficulty in hiring a qualified successor and could experience a loss in productivity while any successor obtains the necessary training and experience. We do not have key man life insurance policies on members of our management. Our future success also depends on our ability to retain, attract and motivate highly skilled technical, managerial, marketing and customer service personnel, including members of our management team.

Our inability to attract and retain qualified personnel and maintain a highly skilled workforce could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Our employees are our most important assets and our ability to attract and retain key personnel is an important aspect of our competitiveness. If we are unable to attract and retain key personnel, our ability to provide our services in the manner clients have come to expect may be adversely affected, which could harm our reputation and result in a loss of clients, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial position.

All of our non-executive employees work for us on an at-will basis, subject to applicable law. We plan to hire additional personnel in all areas of our business, particularly for our sales, marketing and technology development areas, both domestically and internationally, which will likely increase our recruiting and hiring costs. Competition for these types of personnel is intense, particularly in the Internet and software industries. As a result, we may be unable to successfully attract or retain qualified personnel. Our inability to retain and attract the necessary personnel could adversely affect our business.

Finally, employee sickness and leaves due to COVID-19 and similar pandemics may result in a drastic reduction in the availability of key employees. Moreover, as we reopen our physical locations, we face dangers associated with our safety measures being ineffective or claims that they were ineffective should employees become ill. Accordingly, we may face claims by employees associated with such matters that would increase our costs or associated litigation expenses.

Misclassification or reclassification of our independent contractors or employees could increase our costs and adversely impact our business.

Our workers are classified as either employees or independent contractors, and if employees, as either exempt from overtime or non-exempt (and therefore overtime eligible). Regulatory authorities and private parties have recently asserted within several industries that some independent contractors should be classified as employees and that some exempt employees, including those in sales-related positions, should be classified as non-exempt based upon the applicable facts and circumstances and their interpretations of existing rules and regulations. If we are found to have misclassified employees as independent contractors or non-exempt employees as exempt, we could face penalties and have additional exposure under federal and state tax, workers’ compensation, unemployment benefits, labor, employment and tort laws, including for prior periods, as well as potential liability for employee overtime and benefits and tax withholdings. Legislative, judicial or regulatory (including tax) authorities could also introduce proposals or assert interpretations of existing rules and regulations that would change the classification of a significant number of independent contractors doing business with us from independent contractor to employee and a significant number of exempt employees to non-exempt. A reclassification in either case could result in a significant increase in employment-related costs such as wages, benefits and taxes. The costs associated with employee classification, including any related regulatory action or litigation, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and our financial position.

Our business prospects depend, in part, on our ability to maintain and improve our services as well as to develop new services.

We believe that our business prospects depend, in part, on our ability to maintain and improve our current services and to develop new services. Our services will have to achieve market acceptance, maintain technological competitiveness and meet an expanding range of customer requirements. We may experience difficulties that could delay or prevent the successful development, introduction or marketing of new services and service enhancements. Additionally, our new services and service enhancements may not achieve market acceptance.

If we do not respond effectively and on a timely basis to rapid technological change, our business could suffer.

Our industry is characterized by rapidly changing technologies, industry standards, customer needs and competition, as well as by frequent new product and service introductions. Our services are integrated with the computer systems of our customers. We must respond to technological changes affecting both our customers and suppliers. We may not be successful in developing and marketing, on a timely and cost-effective basis, new services that respond to technological changes, evolving industry standards or changing customer requirements. Our success depends, in part, on our ability to accomplish all of the following in a timely and cost-effective manner:

The success of our business depends on the continued growth of digital media as a medium for commerce, content, advertising and communications.

Expansion in the sales of our services depends on the continued acceptance of the digital media as a platform for commerce, content, advertising and communications. The use of the digital media as a medium for commerce, content, advertising and communications could be adversely impacted by delays in the development or adoption of new standards and protocols to handle increased demands of digital media activity, cyber security, reliability, cost, ease-of-use, accessibility and quality-of-service. The performance of the Internet as a medium for commerce, content, advertising and communications has been harmed by viruses, worms, hacking and similar malicious programs, and the Internet has experienced a variety of outages and other delays as a result of damage to portions of its infrastructure. If for any reason digital media does not remain a medium for widespread commerce, content, advertising and communications, the demand for our products would be significantly reduced, which would harm our business.

There is no guarantee that the balance of our Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loan will be forgiven, which would negatively impact our cash flow, and our application for the PPP Loan could damage our reputation. 

Since 2020, we received approximately $3,397,000 in PPP loan proceeds as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), which provides economic relief to businesses in response to COVID-19 and under the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) “Economic Injury Disaster Loan” program. The PPP loan and accrued interest are forgivable after 24 weeks as long as we use the PPP loan proceeds for eligible purposes, including payroll, benefits, rent and utilities, and our employee head count remains consistent with our baseline period over the 24-week period after the loan was received. The amount of loan forgiveness will be reduced if we terminate employees or reduce salaries during the 24-week period. The unforgiven portion of the PPP loan is payable over two years at an interest rate of 1%, with a deferral of payments for the first six months. As of March 25, 2021, the Company received notice that approximately $891,000 of PPP loans had been forgiven, with applications for the remaining PPP loan forgiveness pending. While we believe that our use of the loan proceeds will meet the conditions for forgiveness of the remainder of the PPP loan, there is a risk that: (i) the loan will not be forgiven, in whole or in part, (ii) we will take actions that could cause us to be ineligible for forgiveness of the remainder of the loan, or (iii) we may be required to repay the balance upon event of default under the loan or upon a breach of applicable PPP regulations. It is possible that the loan may not be forgiven in full, or that the Company would not be able to deduct the Company expenses it used the PPP Loan for, which could have a negative impact on the Company’s cash flow.

Platform system disruptions could cause delays or interruptions of our services, which could cause us to lose customers or incur additional expenses.

Our success depends on our ability to provide reliable service. Although our network service is designed to minimize the possibility of service disruptions or other outages, our service may be disrupted by problems on our system, such as malfunctions in our software or other facilities, overloading of our network and problems with the systems of competitors with which we interconnect, such as damage to our communications systems and power surges and outages. Any significant disruption in its network could cause it to lose customers and incur additional expenses.

Intellectual property infringement claims are common in the industry and, should such claims be made against us, and if we do not prevail, our business, financial condition and operating results could be harmed.

The Internet, mobile media, software, mass media and technology industries are characterized by the existence of a large number of patents, copyrights, trademarks and trade secrets and by frequent litigation based on allegations of infringement or other violations of intellectual property rights, domestically or internationally. As we grow and face increasing competition, the probability that one or more third parties will make intellectual property rights claims against us increases. In such cases, our technologies may be found to infringe on the intellectual property rights of others. Additionally, many of our subscription agreements may require us to indemnify our customers for third-party intellectual property infringement claims, which would increase our costs if we have to defend such claims and may require that we pay damages and provide alternative services if there were an adverse ruling in any such claims. Intellectual property claims could harm our relationships with our customers, deter future customers from subscribing to our products or expose us to litigation, which could be expensive and divert considerable attention of our management team from the normal operation of our business. Even if we are not a party to any litigation between a customer and a third party, an adverse outcome in any such litigation could make it more difficult for us to defend against intellectual property claims by the third party in any subsequent litigation in which we are a named party. Any of these results could adversely affect our brand, business and results of operations.

Patent positions in the media industry are uncertain and involve complex legal, scientific and factual questions and often conflicting claims. The industry has in the past been characterized by a substantial amount of litigation and related administrative proceedings regarding patents and intellectual property rights. In addition, established companies have used litigation against smaller companies and new technologies as a means of gaining a competitive advantage.

In addition, we may be required to participate in interference proceedings in the United States Patent and Trademark Office to determine the relative priorities of our inventions and third parties’ inventions. An adverse outcome in an interference proceeding could require us to cease using the technology or to license rights from prevailing third parties.

With respect to any intellectual property rights claim against us or our customers, we may have to pay damages or stop using technology found to be in violation of a third party’s rights. We may have to seek a license for the technology, which may not be available on reasonable terms or at all, may significantly increase our operating expenses or may significantly restrict our business activities in one or more respects. We may also be required to develop alternative non-infringing technology, which could require significant effort and expense. Any of these outcomes could adversely affect our business and results of operations. Even if we prove successful in defending ourselves against such claims, we may incur substantial expenses and the active defense of such claims may divert considerable attention of our management team from the normal operation of our business.

If we are unable to sell additional services to our existing customers or attract new customers, our revenue growth will be adversely affected.

To increase our revenues, we believe we must sell additional services to existing customers and regularly add new customers. If our existing and prospective customers do not perceive our products to be of sufficient value and quality, we may not be able to increase sales to existing customers and attract new customers, or we may have difficulty retaining existing customers, and our operating results will be adversely affected.

Our resources may not be sufficient to manage our intended growth; failure to properly manage potential growth would be detrimental to our business.

We may fail to adequately manage our intended future growth. Most of our administrative, financial and operational functions come from acquired operations. Any growth in our operations will place a significant strain on our resources and increase demands on our management and on our operational and administrative systems, controls and other resources. We cannot assure you that our existing personnel, systems, procedures or controls will be adequate to support our operations in the future or that we will be able to successfully implement appropriate measures consistent with our growth strategy. As part of this growth, we may have to implement new operational and financial systems, procedures and controls to expand, train and manage our employee base, and maintain close coordination among our staff. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.

In addition to any acquisitions, to the extent we acquire other business entities, we will also need to integrate and assimilate new operations, technologies and personnel. If we are unable to manage growth effectively, such as if our sales and marketing efforts exceed our capacity to install, maintain and service our products or if new employees are unable to achieve performance levels, our business, operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. As with all expanding businesses, the potential exists that growth will occur rapidly. If we are unable to effectively manage this growth, our business and operating results could suffer. Anticipated growth in future operations may place a significant strain on management systems and resources. In addition, the integration of new personnel will continue to result in some disruption to ongoing operations. The ability to effectively manage growth in a rapidly evolving market requires effective planning and management processes. We will need to continue to improve operational, financial and managerial controls, reporting systems and procedures, and will need to continue to expand, train and manage our work force.

We must keep up with rapid technology change and evolving industry standards in order to be successful. Our competitors may be better positioned than we are to adapt to rapid changes in technology, and we could lose customers.

The markets for our services are characterized by rapidly changing technology and evolving industry standards. Any products or services that we develop may become obsolete or uneconomical before we recover any expenses incurred in connection with their development. Our future success will depend, in part, on our ability to effectively identify and implement leading technologies, develop technical expertise and influence and respond to emerging industry standards and other technology changes.

All this must be accomplished in a timely and cost-effective manner. We may not be successful in effectively identifying or implementing new technologies, developing new services or enhancing our existing services in a timely fashion. Some of our competitors have a much longer operating history, more experience in making upgrades to their networks and greater financial resources than we will have. We cannot assure you that we will obtain access to new technologies as quickly or on the same terms as our competitors, or that we will be able to apply new technologies to our existing networks without incurring significant costs or at all. In addition, responding to demand for new technologies would require us to increase our capital expenditures, which may require additional financing in order to fund. Further, our competitors, in particular the larger incumbent agencies, enjoy greater economies of scale in regard to vendor relationships. As a result of those factors, we could lose customers and our financial results could be harmed. If we fail to identify and implement new technologies or services, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Difficult conditions in the global capital markets and the economy generally may materially adversely affect our business and results of operations, and we do not expect these conditions to improve in the near future.

Our results of operations can be materially affected by conditions in the global capital markets as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the economy generally, both in the U.S. and perhaps even more so in Great Britain as a result of Brexit. Stresses experienced by global capital markets over the last few years have resulted in continuing concerns over inflation, energy costs, geopolitical issues, the availability and cost of credit, uncertain real estate markets, increased volatility and diminished expectations for the economy. These factors combined with any decline in business and consumer confidence may have an adverse effect on our business.

We face considerable uncertainty in the estimation of revenues, related costs of services and their subsequent settlement.

Our revenues and the related cost of sales will often be earned and incurred with the same customers who can be our vendors and suppliers simultaneously. These revenues and their related costs may be based on estimated amounts accrued for pending disputes with vendors or based on project completion. Subsequent adjustments to these estimates may occur after the bills are received/tendered for the actual costs incurred and revenues earned, and these adjustments can often be material to our future operating results. Judgment is required in estimating the ultimate outcome of the dispute resolution process, as well as any other amounts that may be incurred to conclude the negotiations. Actual results can differ from estimates, and such differences could be material.

We may acquire or make investments in companies or technologies that could cause loss of value to our stockholders and disruption of our business.

We intend to use a substantial portion of the net proceeds of this offering to pursue opportunities to acquire companies or technologies in the future. Entering into an acquisition entails many risks, any of which could adversely affect our business, including:

Our data systems could fail or their security could be compromised, and we will increasingly be handling personal data requiring our compliance with a variety of regulations.

Our business operations depend on the reliability of sophisticated data systems. Any failure of these systems, or any breach of our systems’ security measures, could adversely affect our operations, at least until our data can be restored and/or the breaches remediated. We have, to a limited extent, begun to serve as a conduit for personal information to third-party credit processors, service partners and others, and it is likely we will do so more regularly. The handling of such personal information requires we comply with a variety of federal, state and industry requirements governing the use and protection of such information, including, but not limited to, Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) consumer proprietary network information regulations, Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) consumer protection regulations, and Payment Card Industry data security standards and, for the Healthcare division, the requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and regulations thereunder. While we believe we have taken the steps necessary to assure compliance with all applicable regulations and have made necessary changes to our data systems, any failure of these systems or any breach of the security of these systems could adversely affect our operations and expose us to increased cost, liability for lost personal information and increased regulatory obligations.

A security incident may allow unauthorized access to our systems, networks, or data or the data of clients, harm our reputation, create additional liability, and adversely affect our financial results.

Increasingly, companies are subject to a wide variety of attacks on their systems on an ongoing basis. In addition to threats from traditional computer “hackers,” malicious code (such as malware, viruses, worms, and ransomware, employee theft or misuse, password spraying, phishing, credential stuffing, and denial-of-service attacks, we may also face threats from sophisticated organized crime, nation-state, and nation-state supported actors who engage in attacks (including advanced persistent threat intrusions) that add to the risks to us, our internal systems and our clients’ systems, and the information that they store and process. Third parties may attempt to fraudulently induce employees, users, or organizations into disclosing sensitive information such as user names, passwords, or other information or otherwise compromise the security of our internal electronic systems, networks, and/or physical facilities in order to gain access to our data or clients’ data, which could result in significant legal and financial exposure, a loss of confidence in our security, interruptions or malfunctions in our operations, and ultimately, harm to our future business prospects and revenue. Clients may also disclose or lose control of their application programming interface key (API keys) functions and procedures which allow the creation of applications), secrets or passwords, or use the same or similar secrets or passwords on third parties’ systems, which could lead to unauthorized access to their accounts and data within the Company’s systems (arising from, for example, an independent third-party data security incident that compromises those API keys, secrets, or passwords). Despite our efforts to create security barriers to such threats, it is virtually impossible for us to entirely mitigate these risks, especially where they are attributable to the behavior on independent third parties beyond our control. In addition, the techniques used to sabotage or to obtain unauthorized access to systems and networks in which data is stored or through which data is transmitted change frequently and generally are not recognized until launched against a target. As a result, it may not be possible for us to anticipate these techniques or implement adequate preventative measures to prevent an electronic intrusion into our systems and networks and we may be required to expend significant capital and financial resources to protect against such threats or to alleviate problems caused by breaches in systems, network or data security.

Security breaches impacting the Company could result in a risk of loss, unavailability, or unauthorized disclosure of this information, which, in turn, could lead to litigation, governmental audits, and investigation and possible liability (including regulatory fines), damage our relationship with existing clients, and have a negative impact on our ability to attract new clients. Furthermore, any such breach, including a breach of the systems or networks of our clients, could compromise our systems or networks, creating system disruptions or slowdowns and exploiting security vulnerability of our networks or the networks of our clients, and the information stored on our network or the networks of our clients could be accessed, publicly disclosed, altered, lost, or stolen, which could subject us to liability and cause us financial harm. In addition, a breach of the security measures of one of our clients could result in the destruction, modification, or exfiltration of confidential corporation information, or other data that may provide additional avenues of attack. These breaches, or any perceived breach, of our systems or networks or those of clients, whether or not any such breach is due to our vulnerability, may also undermine confidence in us, or our industry, and result in damage to our reputation, negative publicity and those of clients.

Our business is subject to complex and evolving U.S. and foreign laws and regulations regarding privacy, data protection, content, competition, consumer protection, and other matters. Many of these laws and regulations are subject to change and uncertain interpretation, and could result in claims, changes to our business practices, monetary penalties, increased cost of operations, or declines in client engagement, or otherwise harm our business.

There currently are a number of laws, as well as proposals pending before federal, state, and foreign legislative and regulatory bodies. For example, the European General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) took effect in May 2018 and applies to many of our services in Europe. The GDPR includes operational requirements for companies that receive or process personal data of residents of the European Union that are different from those previously in place in the European Union and may impact U.S. operations, as well to the extent they come under the GDPR. The GDPR applies to any organization with an establishment in the European Union for data processing purposes, as well as those outside the European Union if they process personal data of individuals in the European Union in connection with offering them goods or services or monitoring their behavior. The GDPR enhances data protection obligations for processors and controllers of personal data, including, for example, expanded disclosures about how personal data is to be used, limitations on retention of information, mandatory data breach notification requirements, and additional obligations on service providers (such as any third parties to whom we may transfer personal data). Non-compliance with the GDPR can trigger fines of up to the greater of €20 million and 4% of our global revenue. Given the breadth and depth of changes in data protection obligations, compliance has caused us to expend resources, and such expenditures are likely to continue into the future as we continue our compliance efforts and respond to new interpretations and enforcement actions. The California Consumer Privacy Act, or AB 375, creates new data privacy rights for users, effective in January 2020. The California law requires employers to tell employees the categories of personal information the Company has collected about them and the purposes for which it will be used. While the Company believes its compliance efforts under the GDPR and California law are sufficient, such future compliance may be impacted by changes to such regimes. Similarly, there are a number of legislative proposals in the United States, at both the federal and state level, as well as other jurisdictions that could impose new obligations in areas affecting our business. In addition, some countries are considering or have passed legislation implementing data protection requirements or requiring local storage and processing of data or similar requirements that could increase the cost and complexity of delivering our services if applicable.

These laws and regulations, as well as any associated inquiries or investigations or any other government actions, may be costly to comply with and may delay or impede the development of new products, result in negative publicity, increase our operating costs, require significant management time and attention, and subject us to remedies that may harm our business, including fines or demands or orders that we modify or cease existing business practices.

An interruption in the supply of products and services that we obtain from third parties could cause a decline in sales of our services.

In designing, developing and supporting our services, we rely on many third-party providers. These suppliers may experience difficulty in supplying us products or services sufficient to meet our needs or they may terminate or fail to renew contracts for supplying us these products or services on terms we find acceptable. If our liquidity deteriorates, our vendors may tighten our credit, making it more difficult for us to obtain suppliers on terms satisfactory to us. Any significant interruption in the supply of any of these products or services could cause a decline in sales of our services, unless and until we are able to replace the functionality provided by these products and services. We also depend on third parties to deliver and support reliable products, enhance their current products, develop new products on a timely and cost-effective basis and respond to emerging industry standards and other technological changes.

We rely on third-party vendors for information systems. If these vendors discontinue support for our systems or fail to maintain quality in future software releases, we could sustain a negative impact on the quality of our services to customers, the development of new services and features, and the quality of information needed to manage our business.

We have agreements with vendors that provide for the development and operation of back office systems such as ordering, provisioning and billing systems. We also rely on vendors to provide the systems for monitoring the performance and condition of our network. The failure of those vendors to perform their services in a timely and effective manner at acceptable costs could materially harm our growth and our ability to monitor costs, bill customers, and provision customer orders, maintain the network and achieve operating efficiencies. Such a failure could also negatively impact our ability to retain existing customers or to attract new customers.

Our quarterly operating results are subject to significant fluctuation and, as a result, period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations are not necessarily meaningful.

Our operating results are subject to significant fluctuations as a result of:

Therefore, our operating results for any particular quarter may differ materially from our expectations or those of security analysts, if any, and securities traders and may not be indicative of future operating results. The failure to meet expectations may cause the price of our common stock to decline. Since we are susceptible to these fluctuations, the market price of our common stock may be volatile, which can result in significant losses for investors who purchase our common stock prior to a significant decline in our stock price.

Many of our key functions are concentrated in a single location, and a natural disaster or act of terrorism could seriously impact our ability to operate.

Our IT systems, production, inventory control systems, executive offices and finance/accounting functions, among others, are centralized in our Los Angeles, California facility. A natural disaster, such as a tornado, could seriously disrupt our ability to continue or resume normal operations for some period of time. Similarly, an act of terrorism could disrupt our facility. While we have certain business continuity plans in place, no assurances can be given as to how quickly we would be able to resume operations and how long it may take to return to normal operations. We may experience business interruptions and could incur substantial losses beyond what may be covered by applicable insurance policies, and may experience a loss of customers, vendors and employees during the recovery period.

Risks Relating to Our Common Stock and This Offering

Even if an active public market for our securities develops, it is not possible to predict the extent, liquidity and duration of any public trading market for our securities.

The size and nature of the trading market for our securities have been sporadic and subject to fluctuations. As a result, an investor may find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations of the price of the common stock or Warrants. There can be no assurance that a more active market for the common stock or Warrants will develop, or if one should develop, there is no assurance that it will be sustained. This could severely limit the liquidity of our common stock and Warrants and has had a material adverse effect on the market price of the our common stock and Warrants and on our ability to raise additional capital.

The ability of any such market to provide liquidity for the holders of such shares and to establish a reasonable and rational pricing mechanism, will likely depend on many variables. These may include general economic conditions, public evaluation of our business model, our revenues, earnings and growth potential, the reputation of our management, the general state of the U.S. media industry, the impact of competition and regulation, and the like.

Limitation of liability and indemnification of officers and directors could adversely impact investors’ ability to bring claims against them.

Our officers and directors are required to exercise good faith and high integrity in the management of our affairs. Our Articles of Incorporation provide, however, that our officers and directors shall have no personal liability to us or our stockholders for damages for any breach of duty owed to us or our stockholders, unless they breached their duty of loyalty, did not act in good faith, knowingly violated a law, or received an improper personal benefit. Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws also provide for the indemnification by us of our officers and directors against any losses or liabilities they may incur by reason of their serving in such capacities, provided that they do not breach their duty of loyalty, act in good faith, do not knowingly violate a law, and do not received an improper personal benefit. Additionally, we have entered into employment agreements with our officers, which specify the indemnification provisions provided by the Bylaws and provide, among other things, that to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company will indemnify such officer against any and all losses, expenses and liabilities arising out of such officer’s service as an officer of the Company. In addition, the separation agreement with SAB Management, LLC and Andrew Bressman that we entered into on February 28, 2021 requires the Company to indemnify Mr. Bressman and SAB Management, LLC from any claim by reason of the fact that Mr. Bressman was a consultant, or a fiduciary of the Company.

In so far as indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us under the above provisions, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

The resale of shares of our common stock could adversely affect the market price of our common stock, Warrants and our ability to raise additional equity capital.

As of the date of this prospectus, there were 15,020,512 shares of common stock issued and outstanding prior to this offering. An additional 18,020,036 shares of common stock are issuable upon automatic conversion of outstanding preferred stock upon the Company’s up listing to the Nasdaq Capital Market. Of the 33,040,548 shares of common stock issued or issuable upon conversion of preferred stock, 542,389 shares are freely tradable and the remaining 32,498,159 shares are restricted shares subject to resale under Rule 144 and subsequent to any lock-up agreements described below.

If our stockholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, including shares issuable upon the effectiveness of a registration statement, upon the expiration of any statutory holding period under Rule 144, any lock-up agreement or shares issued upon the exercise of outstanding options, warrants or restricted stock awards, it could create a circumstance commonly referred to as an “overhang” and, in anticipation of which, the market price of our common stock could fall. The existence of an overhang, whether or not sales have occurred or are occurring, also could make more difficult our ability to raise additional financing through the sale of equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate.

In general, a non-affiliated person who has held restricted shares for a period of six months, under Rule 144, may sell into the market our common stock all of their shares, subject to the Company being current in its periodic reports filed with the SEC. An affiliate may sell an amount equal to the greater of 1% of the outstanding 15,020,512 shares as of March 29, 2021 or 36,373,881 shares following conversion of outstanding preferred stock and completion of this offering, or the average weekly number of shares sold in the last four weeks prior to such sale. Such sales may be repeated once every three months, and any of the restricted shares may be sold by a non-affiliate without any restrictions after they have been held one year.

Our Articles of Incorporation grant the Board of Directors the power to designate and issue additional shares of preferred stock.

Our Articles of Incorporation grant our Board of Directors authority to, without any action by our stockholders, designate and issue, from our authorized capital, shares in such classes or series as it deems appropriate and establish the rights, preferences, and privileges of such shares, including dividends, liquidation and voting rights. The rights of holders of classes or series of preferred stock that may be issued could be superior to the rights of the common stock offered hereby. Our Board of Directors’ ability to designate and issue shares could impede or deter an unsolicited tender offer or takeover proposal. Further, the issuance of additional shares having preferential rights could adversely affect other rights appurtenant to the shares of common stock offered hereby. Any such issuances will dilute the percentage of ownership interest of our stockholders and may dilute our book value.

If we are not able to continue to meet the Nasdaq Capital Market rules for continued listing, our common stock or Warrants could be delisted.

Our applications to list our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “TRKA,” and our Warrants under the symbol “TRKAW ”, have been approved.

However, we may be unable to meet the Nasdaq Capital Market rules for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, notably, the minimum bid price and the stockholders’ equity minimum requirements. If we fail to meet the Nasdaq Capital Market’s ongoing listing criteria, our common stock or Warrants could be delisted. If our common stock or Warrants are delisted by the Nasdaq Capital Market, our common stock or Warrants may be eligible for quotation on an over-the-counter quotation system or on the pink sheets. Upon any such delisting, our common stock or Warrants would become subject to the regulations of the SEC relating to the market for penny stocks. A penny stock is any equity security not traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share. The regulations applicable to penny stocks may severely affect the market liquidity for our common stock and Warrants and could limit the ability of stockholders to sell such securities in the secondary market. In such a case, an investor may find it more difficult to dispose of or obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our common stock or Warrants, and there can be no assurance that our common stock or Warrants will be eligible for trading or quotation on any alternative exchanges or markets.

Delisting from the Nasdaq Capital Market could adversely affect our ability to raise additional financing through public or private sales of equity securities, would significantly affect the ability of investors to trade our securities and would negatively affect the value and liquidity of our common stock and Warrants. Delisting could also have other negative results, including the potential loss of confidence by employees, the loss of institutional investor interest and fewer business development opportunities.

We may become subject to “penny stock” rules, which could damage our reputation and the ability of investors to sell their shares.

Stockholders should be aware that, according to the Securities and Exchange Commission Release No. 34-29093, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. These patterns include: control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and ales and false and misleading press releases; “boiler room” practices involving high pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by selling broker-dealers; and the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the inevitable collapse of those prices with consequent investor losses.

Furthermore, the penny stock designation may adversely affect the development of any public market for our shares of common stock or, if such a market develops, its continuation. Broker-dealers are required to personally determine whether an investment in penny stock is suitable for customers. Penny stocks are securities (i) with a price of less than five dollars ($5.00) per share; (ii) that are not traded on a “recognized” national exchange; and (iii) of an issuer with net tangible assets less than $2,000,000 (if the issuer has been in continuous operation for at least three years) or $5,000,000 (if in continuous operation for less than three years), or with average annual revenues of less than $6,000,000 for the last three years. Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act and Rule 15g-2 of the SEC require broker-dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the document before effecting any transaction in a penny stock for the investor’s account. Potential investors in our common stock are urged to obtain and read such disclosure carefully before purchasing any shares that are deemed to be penny stock. Rule 15g-9 of the SEC requires broker-dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any investor for transactions in such stocks before selling any penny stock to that investor.

This procedure requires the broker-dealer to (i) obtain from the investor information concerning his financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives; (ii) reasonably determine, based on that information, that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the investor and that the investor has sufficient knowledge and experience as to be reasonably capable of evaluating the risks of penny stock transactions; (iii) provide the investor with a written statement setting forth the basis on which the broker-dealer made the determination in (ii) above; and (iv) receive a signed and dated copy of such statement from the investor, confirming that it accurately reflects the investor’s financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives. Compliance with these requirements may make it more difficult for the Company’s stockholders to resell their shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of them.

We do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock, and accordingly, stockholders must rely on stock appreciation for any return on their investment.

We have not declared or paid any cash dividends on our Common Stock and do not currently intend to do so for the foreseeable future. We currently anticipate that we will retain future earnings for the development, operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. Therefore, the success of an investment in shares of our Common Stock will depend upon any future appreciation in their value. There is no guarantee that shares of our Common Stock will appreciate in value or even maintain the price at which our stockholders  have purchased their shares.

Our compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other federal securities law reporting requirements are expensive and could distract management’s attention from our business affairs.

As a public reporting company upon completion of this offering, we will be subject to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and other federal securities laws. The costs of compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and of preparing and filing annual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC, and furnishing audited reports to stockholders, are significant and may increase in the future. Our securities registration with the SEC was revoked in June 2018, as a result of our failure to file with the SEC required periodic reports since the filing of its Form 10-K in August 2016. Upon the effectiveness of this registration statement, our securities will be registered with the SEC once again. However, there can be no assurance we will be able to report on a timely basis in the future. Any subsequent revocation will be expected to have an adverse effect on the market price of our securities. Moreover, compliance with the complex laws, rules and regulations applicable to public companies could distract our management’s attention from our business affairs, which could have an adverse impact on our results of operations.

Failure to build our finance infrastructure and improve our accounting systems and controls could impair our ability to comply with the financial reporting and internal controls requirements for publicly traded companies.

As a public company, we will operate in an increasingly demanding regulatory environment, which requires us to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act,. Company responsibilities required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act include establishing corporate oversight and adequate internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. Effective internal controls are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and are important to help  prevent financial fraud. Commencing with our fiscal year ending the year after this offering is completed, we must perform system and process evaluation and testing of our internal controls over financial reporting to allow management to report on the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting in our Form 10-K filing for that year, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Prior to this offering, we have never been required to test our internal controls within a specified period and, as a result, we may experience difficulty in meeting these reporting requirements in a timely manner.

During the audit of the Company’s financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2020, Management of the Company was notified of a material weakness.  A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.  The material weakness identified was that revenue recognition for US GAAP purposes was unclear and significant adjustments were required to be made by the Company at each quarter end and at year’s end.  Certain significant deficiencies, less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of the Company’s financial reporting were also identified.  All of the foregoing material weakness and significant deficiencies Management has addressed and will continue to address in the current fiscal year

We anticipate that the process of building our accounting and financial functions and infrastructure will require significant additional professional fees, internal costs and management efforts. We expect that we will need to implement a new financing and accounting system to combine and streamline the management of our financial, accounting, human resources and other functions. However, such a system would likely require us to complete many processes and procedures for the effective use of the system or to run our business using the system, which may result in substantial costs. Any disruptions or difficulties in implementing or using such a system could adversely affect our controls and harm our business. Moreover, such disruption or difficulties could result in unanticipated costs and diversion of management attention. In addition, we may discover weaknesses in our system of internal financial and accounting controls and procedures that could result in a material misstatement of our financial statements. Our internal controls over financial reporting will not prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud will be detected.

If we are not able to comply with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act in a timely manner, or if we are unable to maintain proper and effective internal controls, we may not be able to produce timely and accurate financial statements. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and results of operations could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information and we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by Nasdaq, the SEC or other regulatory authorities.

The trading price of our common stock and Warrants may be volatile, which could lead to losses by investors and costly securities litigation.

The trading price of our common stock and Warrant is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate in response to factors such as:

The stock market is subject to significant price and volume fluctuations. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been initiated against such a company.

Litigation initiated against us, whether or not successful, could result in substantial costs and diversion of our management’s attention and resources, which could harm our business and financial condition.

Insiders, including, but not limited to, significant stockholders, will continue to have substantial control over the Company, which could delay or prevent a change in corporate control or result in the entrenchment of management or our Board of Directors .

As of March 29, 2021, Peter Coates, together with any affiliates and related persons, beneficially owned approximately 7,869,572 shares (24.0%) of our common stock on an as-converted basis with all outstanding Preferred Stock (hereinafter referred to as our “Voting Securities”). Geoffrey Noel Bond beneficially owned 2,640,000 shares (8.2%) of our Voting Securities on an as-converted basis of his Preferred Stock. The law firm of Davidoff Hutcher & Citron LLP, as escrow agent for the benefit of the stockholders of Pangaea Trading Partners, held, approximately 2,792,361 shares of common stock or approximately 8.7% of our Voting Securities. In addition, following this offering and the automatic conversion of all shares of Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock and Series D Preferred Stock into an aggregate of 18,020,036 shares of common stock upon the Company’s uplisting to the Nasdaq Capital Market, the Company’s existing stockholders will beneficially own an aggregate of 33,040,548 shares of common stock, or 90.8% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock after this offering. As a result, the above-referenced significant stockholders may have the ability to influence the outcome of matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election and removal of directors and any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. These stockholders and their affiliates may have the ability to influence the management and affairs of the Company in the foreseeable future. The foregoing could have the effect of:

Management will have broad discretion as to the use of the net proceeds from this offering, and we may not use the proceeds effectively.

Our management will have broad discretion as to the application of the net proceeds and could use them for purposes other than those contemplated at the time of this offering. Our stockholders may not agree with the manner in which our management chooses to allocate and spend the net proceeds. Moreover, our management may use the net proceeds for corporate purposes that may not increase our results of operations or the market value of our common stock or Warrants. Our failure to apply these funds effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, delay the development and approval of our products and cause the price of our common stock to decline.

If you purchase our securities sold in this offering, you will experience immediate dilution as a result of this offering.

Because the effective price per share of common stock and accompanying Warrant being offered will be higher than the net tangible book value per share of our Voting Securities, you will experience dilution to the extent of the difference between the effective offering price per share of common stock and accompanying Warrant that you pay in this offering and the net tangible book value per share of our Voting Securities immediately after this offering. Our net tangible book value as of December 31, 2020 was a deficit of approximately $15,914,000, or $0.48 per share of our Voting Securities. Net tangible book value per share is equal to our total tangible assets minus total liabilities, all divided by the number of shares of Voting Securities outstanding. See “Dilution” on page 33 for a more detailed discussion of the dilution you will incur in this offering.

If you purchase our securities in this offering you may experience future dilution as a result of future equity offerings or other equity issuances.

We will need to raise additional capital following this offering to support our business plans. In order to raise additional capital, we believe that we will offer and issue additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock in the future. We cannot assure you that we will be able to sell shares or other securities in any other offering at a price per share that is equal to or greater than the price per share paid by investors in this offering, and investors purchasing other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing stockholders. The price per share at which we sell additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock in future transactions may be higher or lower than the price per share in this offering.

In addition, we may have a significant number of stock options and warrants outstanding at exercise prices substantially lower than the public offering price. To the extent that outstanding stock options or warrants have been or may be exercised or other shares issued, you may experience further dilution, Further, we may choose to raise additional capital due to market conditions or strategic considerations even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans.

Trading of our common stock and Warrants will be limited, and trading restrictions imposed on us by applicable regulations may further reduce trading in our common stock and Warrants, making it difficult for our stockholders to sell their shares or Warrants; and future sales of common stock or Warrants could reduce our stock price.

Once listed, trading of our common stock and Warrants will be conducted on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The liquidity of our common stock and Warrants is expected to be limited, at least initially, not only in terms of the number of shares or Warrants that can be bought and sold at a given price, but also as it may be adversely affected by delays in timing of transactions and reduction in security analysts’ and the media’s coverage of us, if at all. In addition, a substantial number of our existing stockholders have entered into 270 day lock-up agreements from the effective date of the registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part. These factors may result in different prices of our common stock or Warrants than might otherwise be obtained in a more liquid market and could also result in a larger spread between the bid and asked prices of our common stock or Warrants. In addition, without a large public float, our common stock and Warrants will be less liquid than the stock of companies with broader public ownership, and, as a result, the trading prices of our common stock or Warrants may be more volatile. In the absence of an active public trading market, an investor may be unable to liquidate his investment in our common stock or Warrants. Trading of a relatively small volume of our common stock or Warrants may have a greater impact on the trading price our common stock or Warrants than would be the case if our public float were larger. We cannot predict the prices at which our common stock or Warrants will trade in the future, if at all.

Our ability to use our net operating losses and research and development credit carryforwards to offset future taxable income may be subject to certain limitations.

In general, under Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), a corporation that undergoes an “ownership change,” generally defined as a greater than 50% change by value in its equity ownership over a three-year period, is subject to limitations on its ability to utilize its pre-change net operating losses (“NOLs”), and its research and development credit carryforwards to offset future taxable income. Our existing NOLs and research and development credit carryforwards may be subject to limitations arising from previous ownership changes, and if we undergo an ownership change, our ability to utilize NOLs and research and development credit carryforwards could be further limited by Sections 382 and 383 of the Code. In addition, our ability to deduct net interest expense may be limited if we have insufficient taxable income for the year during which the interest is incurred, and any carryovers of such disallowed interest would be subject to the limitation rules similar to those applicable to NOLs and other attributes. Future changes in our stock ownership, some of which might be beyond our control, could result in an ownership change under Section 382 of the Code. For these reasons, in the event we experience a change of control, we may not be able to utilize a material portion of the NOLs, research and development credit carryforwards or disallowed interest expense carryovers, even if we attain profitability.

The financial and operational projections that we may make from time to time are subject to inherent risks.

The projections that our management may provide from time to time (including, but not limited to, financial or operational matters) reflect numerous assumptions made by management, including assumptions with respect to our specific as well as general business, economic, market and financial conditions and other matters, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Accordingly, there is a risk that the assumptions made in preparing the projections, or the projections themselves, will prove inaccurate. There will be differences between actual and projected results, and actual results may be materially different from those contained in the projections. The inclusion of the projections in (or incorporated by reference in) this prospectus should not be regarded as an indication that we or our management or representatives considered or consider the projections to be a reliable prediction of future events, and the projections should not be relied upon as such.

If we were to dissolve, the holders of our securities may lose all or substantial amounts of their investments.

If we were to dissolve as a corporation, as part of ceasing to do business or otherwise, we may be required to pay all amounts owed to any creditors and/or preferred stockholders before distributing any assets to the investors and/or preferred stockholders. There is a risk that in the event of such a dissolution, there will be insufficient funds to repay amounts owed to holders of any of our indebtedness and insufficient assets to distribute to our other investors, in which case investors could lose their entire investment.

An investment in our Company may involve tax implications, and you are encouraged to consult your own advisors as neither we nor any related party is offering any tax assurances or guidance regarding our Company or your investment.

Our prior financings, as well as an investment in our Company generally, involves complex federal, state and local income tax considerations. Neither the Internal Revenue Service nor any state or local taxing authority has reviewed the transactions described herein, and may take different positions than the ones contemplated by management. You are strongly urged to consult your own tax and other advisors prior to investing, as neither we nor any of our officers, directors or related parties is offering you tax or similar advice, nor are any such persons making any representations and warranties regarding such matters.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports about us, our business or our market, or if they change their recommendations regarding our common stock or Warrants adversely, the price of our common stock, Warrants and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for our common stock and Warrants may be influenced by the research and reports that securities or industry analysts may publish about us, our business, our market or our competitors. If any of the analysts who may cover us change their recommendation regarding our common stock or Warrants adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, the price of our common stock would likely decline. If any analyst who may cover us was to cease coverage of our company or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause the price of our common stock, Warrants or trading volume to decline.

In making your investment decision, you should understand that we and the underwriters have not authorized any other party to provide you with information concerning us or this offering.

You should carefully evaluate all of the information in this prospectus before investing in our company. We may receive media coverage regarding our company, including coverage that is not directly attributable to statements made by our officers, that incorrectly reports on statements made by our officers or employees, or that is misleading as a result of omitting information provided by us, our officers or employees. We and the underwriters have not authorized any other party to provide you with information concerning us or this offering, and you should not rely on this information in making an investment decision.

The Warrants in this offering are speculative in nature.

Following this offering, the market value of the Warrants, if any, is uncertain and there can be no assurance that the market value of the Warrants will equal or exceed their imputed offering price. In the event that our common stock price does not exceed the exercise price of the Warrants during the period when such Warrants are exercisable, such Warrants may not have any value. Furthermore, each Warrant will expire three years from its original issuance date.

Holders of the Warrants will not have rights of holders of our shares of common stock until such Warrants are exercised.

The Warrants in this offering do not confer any rights of share ownership on their holders, but rather merely represent the right to acquire shares of our common stock at a fixed price. Until holders of Warrants acquire shares of our common stock upon exercise of the Warrants, holders of Warrants will have no rights with respect to our shares of common stock underlying such Warrants.

Risks Relating to Capital Structure

Because we went public as a “reverse merger,” we have been unable to attract the attention of brokerage firms.

Our 2015 merger may be characterized as a “reverse merger.” Accordingly, additional risks exist as a result of such characterization. For example, securities analysts of brokerage firms have not provided coverage of us since there is little incentive to brokerage firms to recommend the purchase of our common stock or Warrants. No assurance can be given that brokerage firms will want to conduct any secondary offerings on our behalf in the future.

Applicable regulatory requirements may make it difficult for us to retain or attract qualified officers and directors, which could adversely affect the management of its business and its ability to obtain or retain listing of our common stock and Warrants.

We may be unable to attract and retain those qualified officers, directors and members of Board committees required to provide for effective management because of the rules and regulations that govern publicly held companies, including, but not limited to, certifications by principal executive officers. The enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 has resulted in the issuance of a series of related rules and regulations and the strengthening of existing rules and regulations by the SEC, as well as the adoption of new and more stringent rules by the stock exchanges. The perceived increased personal risk associated with these changes may deter qualified individuals from accepting roles as directors and executive officers.

Further, some of these changes heighten the requirements for Board or committee membership, particularly with respect to an individual’s independence from the corporation and level of experience in finance and accounting matters. We may have difficulty attracting and retaining directors with the requisite qualifications. If we are unable to attract and retain qualified officers and directors, the management of our business and our ability to obtain or retain listing of our shares of common stock or Warrants on the Nasdaq Capital Market or any other stock exchange could be adversely affected.

Provisions of our amended and restated articles of incorporation (“Articles of Incorporation”), amended and restated by-laws (“Bylaws”), and Nevada law may make an acquisition of us or a change in our management more difficult.

Certain provisions of our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws that are in effect could discourage, delay or prevent a merger, acquisition or other change in control that stockholders may consider favorable, including transactions in which you might otherwise receive a premium for your shares of common stock. These provisions also could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock. Stockholders who wish to participate in these transactions may not have the opportunity to do so.

Furthermore, these provisions could prevent or frustrate attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove our management. These provisions:

Section 78.438 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”) prohibits a publicly held Nevada corporation from engaging in a business combination with an interested stockholder, generally a person that together with its affiliates owns or within the last two years has owned 10% of voting stock, for a period of two years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner, or falls within certain exemptions under the NRS. As a result of these provisions in our charter documents under Nevada law, the price investors may be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock may be limited.
