SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This document contains certain statements of a forward-looking nature. Such forward-looking statements, including but not limited to statements regarding projected growth, trends and strategies, future operating and financial results, financial expectations and current business indicators are based upon current information and expectations and are subject to change based on factors beyond the control of the Company. Forward-looking statements typically are identified by the use of terms such as “look,” “may,” “should,” “might,” “believe,” “plan,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate” and similar words, although some forward-looking statements are expressed differently. The accuracy of such statements may be impacted by a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or anticipated, including but not limited to those set forth herein and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. Except as required by the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to update forward-looking information. Nonetheless, the Company reserves the right to make such updates from time to time by press release, periodic report or other method of public disclosure without the need for specific reference to this Report. No such update shall be deemed to indicate that other statements not addressed by such update remain correct or create an obligation to provide any other updates.

XERIANT, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2022 AND 2021

 

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

 

Xeriant, Inc. (“Xeriant” or the “Company”) is an aerospace company dedicated to the emerging aviation market called Advanced Air Mobility (AAM), the transition to eco-friendly, on demand flight, making air transportation more accessible and a greater part of our daily lives. Xeriant is focused on the acquisition, development, and proliferation of next generation hybrid-electric and fully electric aircraft with vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) capabilities, performance enhancing aerospace technologies and advanced materials, as well as critical support infrastructure. Xeriant is located at the Research Park at Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton, Florida adjacent to the Boca Raton Airport, and trades on OTC Markets under the stock symbol, XERI. The Company was incorporated in Nevada on December 18, 2009.

 

On April 16, 2019, the Company and the members of American Aviation Technologies, LLC (“AAT”) entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (“Agreement”). The agreement, which became effective on September 30, 2019, was pursuant to which the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding membership units in exchange for the issuance of shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock constituting 86.39% of the total voting power of the Company’s capital stock to be outstanding upon closing, after giving effect to the consummation of concurrent debt settlement and other capital stock issuances but before the issuance of shares of capital stock for investor relations purposes. As a result of the Exchange Agreement, AAT became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

On June 22, 2020, the name of the Company was changed to Xeriant, Inc. in the State of Nevada and subsequently approved by FINRA effective July 30, 2020 for the name and symbol change (XERI).

 

On May 27, 2021, the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with XTI Aircraft Company, to form a new company, called Eco-Aero, LLC, for purpose of completing the preliminary design of XTI’s TriFan 600, a 5-passenger plus pilot, hybrid electric, vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) fixed wing aircraft.

 

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and the accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been included. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and the accompanying notes, are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be expected for the entire fiscal year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the company’s latest annual financial statements.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements include the accounts of Xeriant, Inc., American Aviation Technologies, LLC, and Eco-Aero, LLC. All material intercompany accounts, transactions and profits were eliminated in consolidation. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the company’s latest annual financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant assumptions and estimates relate to the valuation of beneficial conversion features and warrants associated with convertible debt. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Table of Contents

 

Fair Value Measurements and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company adopted ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. ASC Topic 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

 

Level 1: Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.

 

Level 2: Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3: Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

 

The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including all current liabilities are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

Deferred Taxes

 

The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 740-10, Income Taxes (“ASC 740-10”) for recording the provision for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled. Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the asset or liability during each period. If available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Future changes in such valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income taxes in the period of change. Deferred income taxes may arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods.

 

Deferred taxes are classified as current or non-current, depending on the classification of assets and liabilities to which they relate. Deferred taxes arising from temporary differences that are not related to an asset or liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse and are considered immaterial. As of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021 there are no deferred tax assets.

 

Going concern

 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. At March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, the Company had $1,693,495 and $962,540 in cash and $(710,654) and $677,257 in working capital, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had a net loss of $12,779,032 and $1,854,864, respectively. Continued losses may adversely affect the liquidity of the Company in the future. Therefore, the factors noted above raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheets is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional capital, obtain financing and to succeed in its future operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s existence is dependent upon management’s ability to develop profitable operations and resolve its liquidity problems.

  

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company has no cash equivalents.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

The Company monitors outstanding receivables based on factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends, and other information. The allowance for doubtful accounts is estimated based on an assessment of the Company’s ability to collect on customer accounts receivable. There is judgment involved with estimating the allowance for doubtful accounts and if the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make the required payments, the Company may be required to record additional allowances or charges against revenues. The Company writes-off accounts receivable against the allowance when it determines a balance is uncollectible and no longer actively pursues its collection. The allowance for doubtful accounts is created by forming a credit balance which is deducted from the total receivables balance in the balance sheet. As of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021 there are no accounts receivable.

Convertible Debentures

 

If the conversion features of conventional convertible debt provide for a rate of conversion that is below market value at issuance, this feature is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”). A BCF is recorded by the Company as a debt discount pursuant to ASC Topic 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options.” In those circumstances, the convertible debt is recorded net of the discount related to the BCF, and the Company amortizes the discount to interest expense, over the life of the debt.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments (“ASC 825-10”) requires disclosure of the fair value of certain financial instruments. The carrying value of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities as reflected in the balance sheets, approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. All other significant financial assets, financial liabilities and equity instruments of the Company are either recognized or disclosed in the financial statements together with other information relevant for making a reasonable assessment of future cash flows, interest rate risk and credit risk. Where practicable the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities have been determined and disclosed; otherwise only available information pertinent to fair value has been disclosed.

 

The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820-10”) and Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments (“ASC 825-10”), which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.

 

Research and Development Expenses

 

Expenditures for research and development are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred research and development expenses of $7,587 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company incurred research and development expenses of $5,207,806 and $0 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

Advertising, Marketing and Public Relations

 

The Company expenses advertising and marketing costs as they are incurred. The Company recorded advertising expenses in the amount of $3,690 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company recorded advertising expenses in the amount of $168,403 and $0 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. These expenses are included within sales in marketing expenses in the statements of operations.

 

Offering Costs

 

Costs incurred in connection with raising capital by the issuance of common stock are recorded as contra equity and deducted from the capital raised. There were no offering costs for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Income Taxes

 

The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of general and administrative expenses. Our consolidated federal tax return and any state tax returns are not currently under examination.

 

The Company has adopted FASB ASC 740-10, Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually from differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, issued as a new Topic, ASC Topic 606. The new revenue recognition standard supersedes all existing revenue recognition guidance. Under this ASU, an entity should recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2015-14, issued in August 2015, deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 to the first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted in the first quarter of 2017.

 

In February 2016, FASB issued ASC 842 that requires lessees to recognize lease assets and corresponding lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases with terms of more than 12 months. The update, which supersedes existing lease guidance, will continue to classify leases as either finance or operating, with the classification determining the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement.

 

The ASU will be effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted, and is applicable on a modified retrospective basis with various optional practical expedients. The Company has assessed the impact of this standard. The Company entered into a new lease agreement commencing on November 1, 2019 and implemented this guidance on November 1, 2019.

 

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”) to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective January 1, 2024 and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted beginning on January 1, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 is expect to have material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the consolidated financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

 

NOTE 3 - JOINT VENTURE

 

On May 31, 2021, the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (the “Agreement”) with XTI Aircraft Company (“XTI”), a Delaware corporation, to form a new company, called Eco-Aero, LLC (the “JV”), a Delaware limited liability company, with the purpose of completing the preliminary design of XTI’s TriFan 600, a 5-passenger plus pilot, hybrid electric, vertical takeoff, and landing (eVTOL) fixed wing aircraft. Under the Agreement, Xeriant is contributing capital, technology, and strategic business relationships, and XTI is contributing intellectual property licensing rights and know-how. XTI and the Company each own 50 percent of the JV. The JV is managed by a management committee consisting of five members, three appointed by the Company and two by XTI. The Agreement was effective on June 4, 2021, with an initial deposit of $1 million into the JV. Xeriant’s financial commitment is $10 million, contributed over a period of less than one year, as required by the aircraft development timeline and budget.

 

The Company analyzed the transaction under ASC 810 Consolidation, to determine if the joint venture classifies as a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”). The Joint Venture qualifies as a VIE based on the fact the JV does not have sufficient equity to operate without financial support from Xeriant. According to ASC 810-25-38, a reporting entity shall consolidate a VIE when that reporting entity has a variable interest (or combination of variable interests) that provides the reporting entity with a controlling financial interest on the basis of the provisions in paragraphs 810-10-25-38A through 25-38J. The reporting entity that consolidates a VIE is called the primary beneficiary of that VIE. According to the JV operating agreement, the ownership interests are 50/50. However, the agreement provides for a Management Committee of five members. Three of the five members are from Xeriant. Additionally, Xeriant has the right to invest $10,000,000 into the JV. As such, Xeriant has substantial capital at risk. Based on these two factors, the conclusion is that Xeriant is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Accordingly, Xeriant has consolidated the VIE.

 

NOTE 4 - CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISKS

 

The Company maintains accounts with financial institutions. All cash in checking accounts is non-interest bearing and is fully insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). At times, cash balances may exceed the maximum coverage provided by the FDIC on insured depositor accounts. The Company believes it mitigates its risk by depositing its cash and cash equivalents with major financial institutions. On March 31, 2022, the Company had $1,443,495 in excess of FDIC insurance.

NOTE 5 - OPERATING LEASE RIGHT-OF-USE ASSET AND OPERATING LEASE LIABILITY

 

The Company leases 2,911 square feet of office space located in the Research Park at Florida Atlantic University, Innovation Centre 1, 3998 FAU Boulevard, Suite 309, Boca Raton, Florida. The Company entered into a lease agreement commencing on November 1, 2019 through January 1, 2025 in which the first three months of rent were abated. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company decided to have all employees work from home and intends to build out the office space by the end of 2021 to allow employees to work from the office in January of 2022. The following table illustrates the base rent amounts over the term of the lease:

Operating lease right-of-use asset and liability are recognized at the present value of the future lease payments at the lease commencement date. The interest rate used to determine the present value is our incremental borrowing rate, estimated to be 10%, as the interest rate implicit in most of our leases is not readily determinable. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Since the common area maintenance expenses are expenses that do not depend on an index or rate, they are excluded from the measurement of the lease liability and recognized in other general and administrative expenses on the statements of operations. At inception the Company paid prepaid rent in the amount of $4,659, which was netted against the operating lease right-of-use asset balance until it was applied in February 2020.

Between September 27, 2019 and August 10, 2021, the Company issued convertible notes payable with an aggregate face value of $892,300, of which $342,950 were issued by our subsidiary AAT. The notes have a coupon rate of 6% and maturity dates between three and six months. The agreements provided the holder has the option to convert the principal balance and any accrued interest to common stock of the Company. In the event the holder does not elect to convert the note prior to maturity, the note will automatically convert to common stock. Of the $892,300, $342,950 is convertible at $.0033 per share, $87,000 is convertible at $0.025 per share, $180,550 is convertible at $.03 per share, $31,800 is convertible at $0.003 per share, and the remaining $250,000 is convertible at $.06 per share. All these convertible notes payable have been converted as of March 31, 2021 and $167,550 principal balance remaining as of June 30, 2021.

 

The Company evaluated these notes under ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). ASC 815 generally requires the analysis embedded terms and features that have characteristics of derivatives to be evaluated for bifurcation and separate accounting in instances where their economic risks and characteristics are not clearly and closely related to the risks of the host contract. None of the embedded terms required bifurcation and liability classification. However, the Company was required to determine if the debt contained a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”), which is based on the intrinsic value on the date of issuance.

 

In connection with the notes, the Company issued warrants indexed to an aggregate 8,848,333 shares of common stock. The warrants have a term of two years and an exercise price of $.025. The Company evaluated the warrants under ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”) and determined that they did not require liability classification. The warrants were recorded in additional paid-in capital under their aggregate relative fair value of $156,225.

 

Auctus Fund, LLC

 

On October 27, 2021, the Company issued a convertible note payable with Auctus Fund, LLC (the “Auctus Note”) with the principal sum of $6,050,000, which amount is the $5,142,500 actual amount of the purchase price, hereof plus an original issue discount in the amount of $907,500 and to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount hereof at the rate of zero percent per annum from the issue date until the note becomes due and payable, and $433,550 for professional fees in completing the transactions. The note has a maturity date of twelve months. The agreement provides the holder has the option to convert the principal balance and any accrued interest to common stock of the Company at a conversion price of lesser of (i) $0.1187 or (ii) 75% of the offering price per share divided by the number of shares of common stock.

In connection with the notes, the Company issued warrants indexed to an aggregate 50,968,828 shares of common stock. The warrants have a term of five years and an exercise price of $0.1187.

The Company estimated the fair value of the warrants using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which is based, in part, upon subjective assumptions including but not limited to stock price volatility, the expected life of the warrants, the risk-free interest rate and the fair value of the common stock underlying the warrants. The Company estimates the volatility of its stock based on the average of three similar size public companies peer group historical volatility that is in line with the expected remaining life of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bond for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected remaining life of the warrants is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term.

 

The Company was required to determine if the debt contained a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”), which is based on the intrinsic value on the date of issuance. The Company recorded $2,365,419 conversion feature in additional paid-in capital. The BCF resulted in a debt discount and are amortized over the life of the note.

The Joint Venture Agreement grants to Movychem the right to dissolve the Joint Venture in the event that the Company fails to make any of its capital contributions in which case the Joint Venture will be required to grant back to Movychem all joint venture intellectual property and the assignment to Movychem of any outstanding licenses. Additionally, the Services Agreement will be amended to provide that the 40% of royalties to be paid by to the Company will be limited to licensees who were first introduced to the Joint Venture or Movychem, as the case may be.

Brief Corporate History

 

Xeriant is an aerospace technology and advanced materials holding and operating company focused on Advanced Air Mobility (“AAM”) and the transition to green aerospace. The Company plans to source and acquire complementary and strategic interests in visionary companies developing, integrating, and commercializing critical breakthrough technologies which enhance performance, increase safety, and enable and support more efficient, autonomous, and sustainable flight operations, including electrically powered passenger and cargo transport aircraft capable of vertical takeoff and landing. The Company is located at the Research Park at Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton, Florida.

 

The Company was originally incorporated in Nevada on December 18, 2009 under the name Eastern World Solutions, Inc. The name changed to Banjo & Matilda, Inc. on September 24, 2013. On June 22, 2020, the Company changed its name from Banjo & Matilda, Inc. to Xeriant, Inc. in the State of Nevada and subsequently approved by FINRA effective July 30, 2020 for the name and symbol change (XERI).

 

On April 16, 2019, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with American Aviation Technologies, LLC (“AAT”), an aircraft design and development company focused on the emerging segment of the aviation industry of autonomous and semi-autonomous vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

 

On June 28, 2019, the Company spun out two wholly owned subsidiaries: Banjo & Matilda (USA), Inc. and Banjo & Matilda Australia Pty LTD.

 

On September 30, 2019, the acquisition of AAT closed, and AAT became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

On June 22, 2020, the name was changed from Banjo & Matilda, Inc. to Xeriant, Inc.

 

On May 31, 2021, the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (the “Agreement”) with XTI Aircraft Company (“XTI”) to form a new company, called Eco-Aero, LLC (the “JV”), with the purpose of completing the preliminary design of XTI’s TriFan 600, a 5-passenger plus pilot, hybrid electric, vertical takeoff, and landing (eVTOL) fixed wing aircraft. Under the Agreement, Xeriant is contributing capital, technology, and strategic business relationships, and XTI is contributing intellectual property licensing rights and know-how. XTI and the Company each own 50 percent of the JV.

 

Effective April 2, 2022, the Company entered into a Joint Venture with Movychem s.r.o., a Slovakian limited liability company (“Movychem”), called Ebenberg, LLC, setting forth the terms for the establishment of a joint venture (the “JV”) to develop applications and commercialize a series of flame retardant products in the form of polymer gels, powders, liquids and pellets derived from technology developed by Movychem under the name Retacell™. The JV is organized as a Florida limited liability and is owned 50% by each of the Company and Movychem. The transaction is further described herein under Subsequent Events.

We have incurred recurring losses to date. Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation.

 

We expect we will require additional capital to meet our long-term operating requirements. We expect to raise additional capital through, among other things, the sale of equity or debt securities.

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. At March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, the Company had $1,639,495 and $962,540 in cash and $(710,654) and $677,257 in working capital, respectively. For the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had a net loss of $12,779,032 and $1,854,864, respectively. Continued losses may adversely affect the liquidity of the Company in the future. Therefore, the factors noted above raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheets is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional capital, obtain financing and to succeed in its future operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company has granted a first priority security interest in its asset to Auctus Fund, LLC to secure a convertible note in the principal amount of $6,050,000 which is due on October 27, 2022. The Company’s existence is dependent upon management’s ability to develop profitable operations and resolve its liquidity problems.

 

Commitments for Capital Expenditures

 

To date, our operations have been funded primarily through private investors. Some of these investors have verbally committed additional funding for the Company, as needed. We have had a number of discussions with broker-dealers regarding the funding required to execute the Company’s business plan, which is to acquire companies with revenue and develop breakthrough technologies or business interests in those companies that have developed these technologies. We are in the process of issuing an offering document to obtain the funding for certain acquisitions that are in the discussion stages. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain such funding and/or working capital. To the extent that funding is not available, the Company will be required to scale back or discontinue its business plan. Even if the Company is able to obtain financing, it may contain undue restrictions of the Company’s operations, or there may be substantial dilution for our shareholders in the case of equity financing or convertible debt financing.

 

Off Balance Sheet Items

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as “special purpose entities” (SPEs).

 

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

In the ordinary course of our business, we are not exposed to market risk of the sort that may arise from changes in interest rates or foreign currency exchange rates, or that may otherwise arise from transactions in derivatives.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant assumptions and estimates relate to the valuation of beneficial conversion features and warrants associated with convertible debt. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Contingencies

 

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. Our management, in consultation with its legal counsel as appropriate, assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against us or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, we, in consultation with legal counsel, evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims, as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein. If the assessment of a contingency indicates it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in our financial statements. If the assessment indicates a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is probable, but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss, if determinable and material, would be disclosed. Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.

 

On September 1, 2021, Xeriant Inc. brought a cause of action in the Southern District of Florida against a former shareholder for claims, including but not limited to, breach of contract, misrepresentation, and asserting claims to recoup monetary and in-kind distributions made to the shareholder by the Company. The defendant submitted an affirmative defense and counterclaim on October 29, 2021.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

As a smaller reporting company, the Company has elected not to provide the disclosure required by this item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management is responsible for maintaining disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Registrant files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. In addition, the disclosure controls and procedures must ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Registrant’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required financial and other required disclosures.

 

At December 31, 2021, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) of the Exchange Act) was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of Keith Duffy our Chief Executive Officer and Brian Carey our Chief Financial Officer. Based on his evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, he concluded that at March 31, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective due to material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting discussed directly below.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act, during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2022, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
