CURRENT OPERATIONS

 

Sales and Distribution

 

The Company’s flagship product is MOJO Coconut Water. In addition to Coconut Water, the Company produces Sparkling Coconut Water, Coconut Water + Mango Juice, Coconut Water + Pineapple Juice, and Organic Coconut Water. We seek to grow the market share of our products by expanding our hybrid distribution network through the relationships and efforts of our management and third-party partners and broker network, and new products and packaging. The company packages its beverages in 100% recyclable, Eco-Friendly packaging that can be recycled infinite times and is not made from carbon oil-based packaging.

Production

 

The Company has multiple sources for its production. The Company’s fruit sources are of high quality. The fruit is part of the overall taste and quality of our products. Currently, the Company has multiple production facilities that it could source products from, each of the facilities could supply our forecasted demand.

 

Competition

 

The beverage industry is competitive. Competitors in our market compete for brand recognition, ingredient sourcing, product shelf space, and e-commerce page rankings. Our competitors have similar distribution channels and retailers to deliver and sell their products.

 

Government Regulation

 

Within the United States, beverages are governed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”). As such, it is necessary for the Company to establish, maintain and make available for inspection records as well as to develop labels (including nutrition information) that meet FDA requirements. The Company’s production facilities are subject to FDA regulation.

Interim Financial Statements

 

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q and article 10 of Regulation S-X and the related rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, the Company believes that the disclosures included in these financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The unaudited interim condensed financial statements included in this document have been prepared on the same basis as the annual audited financial statements, and in the Company’s opinion, reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation in accordance with GAAP and SEC regulations for interim financial statements. The results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that the Company will have for any subsequent period. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes to those statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Use of Estimates

 

The financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP. Management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash equivalents include investment instruments and time deposits purchased with a maturity of three months or less. As of September 30, 2021, and September 30, 2020, the Company did not have any cash equivalents.

 

7

 

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. The Company provides for probable uncollectible amounts based upon its assessment of the current status of the individual receivables and after using reasonable collection efforts. The allowance for doubtful accounts as of September 30, 2021 and 2020 was zero.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory, consisting solely of finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value (“NRV”). If necessary, the Company provides allowances to adjust the carrying value of its inventories to NRV when NRV is below cost. There were no such adjustments in 2021 or 2020.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue from sales of products is recognized when the related performance obligation is satisfied. The Company’s performance obligation is satisfied upon the shipment or delivery of products to customers. The Company’s products are sold on cash and credit terms which are established in accordance with standardized industry practices and typically require payment within 30 days of delivery. Costs incurred for sales incentives and discounts are accounted for as reductions in revenue.

 

Deductions from Revenue

 

Costs incurred for sales incentives and discounts are accounted for as reductions in revenue. These costs include payments to customers for performing merchandising activities on our behalf, including in store displays, promotions for new items and obtaining optimum shelf space.

 

Shipping and Handling Costs

 

Shipping and Handling Costs incurred to move finished goods from our distribution center to customer locations are included in the line Selling, General and Administrative Expenses in our Statements of Operations.

 

Net Income/(Loss) Per Common Share

 

The Company computes per share amounts in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 260, “Earnings per Share”. ASC Topic 260 requires presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed by dividing the loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding during the periods.

 

The following potentially dilutive securities have been excluded from the computation of weighted average shares outstanding as they would have had an anti-dilutive impact on the Company’s net income/(loss) per common share:

Income Taxes

 

The Net Operating Loss Carryforwards for federal taxes was $3,695,829 at September 30, 2021 and $3,695,829 for the State of New Jersey. The Deferred Tax Assets for federal taxes was $776,124 at September 30, 2021 and $332,625 for the State of New Jersey. The total Deferred Tax Assets was $1,108,749 at September 30, 2021. The Deferred Tax assets have been fully reserved by valuation allowances beyond that portion which is expected to offset current taxes. As of September 30, 2021, the Company’s Federal income tax payable at the corporate tax rate of 21% would be $50,326 and State Income Tax payable at 9% tax rate would be $21,568 if this had not been offset by the deferred tax assets.

 

The Company provides for income taxes using the asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company did not have a deferred tax liability at September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020.

 

As of September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties because there were none. The Company had no Federal or State tax examinations in the past nor does it have any at the current time.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for equity based transactions under the provisions of ASC Topic 718, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”. The ASC prescribes accounting and reporting standards for stock-based compensation plans, including employee stock options, restricted stock, employee stock purchase plans and stock appreciation rights. ASC Topic 718 requires employee compensation expense to be recorded using the fair value method.

 

Share based payment awards are measured at the month-end volume weighted average price (VWAP) of the equity instrument that an entity is obligated to issue when the service has been rendered and any other conditions necessary to earn the right to benefit from the instruments have been satisfied.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

The carrying amounts of financial instruments, which include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expense, approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is provided in addition to the accompanying financial statements and notes to assist readers in understanding our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. MD&A is organized as follows:

 

  Significant Accounting Policies — Accounting policies that we believe are important to understanding the assumptions and judgments incorporated in our reported financial results and forecasts.
     
  Results of Operations — Analysis of our financial results comparing the quarter ended September 30, 2021 to 2020.
     
  Liquidity and Capital Resources — Analysis of changes in our cash flows, and discussion of our financial condition and potential sources of liquidity.

 

This report includes a number of forward looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward looking statements are often identified by words like: believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this annual report. These forward looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or our predictions.

 

Significant Accounting Policies

 

We have prepared our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which requires management to make significant judgments and estimates 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 expenses during the reporting period. We base these significant judgments and estimates on historical experience and other applicable assumptions we believe to be reasonable based upon information presently available. These estimates may change as new events occur, as additional information is obtained and as our operating environment changes. These changes have historically been minor and have been included in the financial statements as soon as they became known. Actual results could materially differ from our estimates under different assumptions, judgments or conditions.

 

All of our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our financial statements, included elsewhere in this Annual Report. We have identified the following as our critical accounting policies and estimates, which are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, are the most pervasive and important to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and could potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions, judgments or conditions.

 

We believe the following critical accounting policies reflect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our financial statements:

 

Use of Estimates — The financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments — Our short-term financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other liabilities, consist primarily of instruments without extended maturities. We believe that the fair values of our current assets and current liabilities approximate their reported carrying amounts.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s senior management, consisting of the Company’s principal executive and financial officer and the Company’s principal accounting officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, the Company’s principal executive and financial officer concluded, as of the Evaluation Date, that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

 

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

The management of MOJO Organics, Inc. is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate system of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f)) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.

 

Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. In evaluating the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on this evaluation, our officers concluded that, during the period covered by this annual report, our internal controls over financial reporting were not operating effectively.

 

As previously reported, the Company does not have an audit committee and is not currently obligated to have one. Management does not believe that the lack of an audit committee is a material weakness.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

We are not a party to any legal or administrative proceedings and are not aware of any pending or threatened legal or administrative proceedings against the Company in all material aspects. We could from time to time become a party to various legal or administrative proceedings arising in the course of our business.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should consider the following factors, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations in future periods. The risks described below are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations in future periods.

 

If we are unable to expand our operations in the marketplace, our growth rate could be negatively affected.

 

Our success depends in part on our ability to grow our business. We have adopted and implemented a strategic plan to increase awareness of our products, secure additional distribution channels, and foster and strengthen our supply, manufacturing and distribution relationships. Our strategic plan includes addressing changes in the market. There can be no assurance that we will achieve the growth necessary to achieve our objectives.

 

We could need additional capital in the future to expand our operations and execute our business objectives.

 

Should we need additional capital to expand our operations, financing transactions may include the issuance of equity, debt securities, and credit facilities.

 

The challenges of competing with other beverage companies could result in reductions to our revenue and operating margins.

 

The nonalcoholic beverage segment of the beverage industry is competitive. We compete with numerous beverage companies, including those marketing similar products. All beverages companies are competing for stomach share on a daily basis which is approximately 64 oz. of fluid per day, per person. Our success depends on our ability to secure distribution channels for our products, our ability to make consumers aware of our products and the appeal of our products to consumers.

 

Disruption of supply, increases in costs or shortages of ingredients could affect our operating results.

 

Availability of supply and the prices charged by the producers of production inputs used in our products can be affected by a variety of factors, including the general demand by other buyers for the same fruits used by us in our products, and country politics and country economics in the area in which our fruit is grown.

 

The quality of fruit we seek trades on a negotiated basis, depending on supply and demand at the time of the purchase. An increase in the price of any fruit that we use in our products will have a negative effect on our margins should we be unable to increase our sales price. Higher energy costs may increase the cost of transporting our supplies. Changes in emission rules for maritime vessels will likely increase costs of shipping our products. Conversely, lower fruit prices and lower energy prices will have a positive result on transport and packaging costs.

 

16

 

 

We use independent bottlers for the filling of our products and, as such, are subject to the bottler’s production and quality control.

 

We use independent bottlers for the production of our products. Accordingly, we are dependent on the bottlers and their ability to meet production demands and to achieve product quality. We play an active role in the production of our beverages, which includes but is not limited to developing our formulations, maintaining control over the labeling and packaging of our beverages, independent Underwriters Laboratories testing of our products for safety, and packaging and function of our packaging and correct FDA labeling. We also review and monitor the safety certifications of the factories including their status with the United States Food and Drug Administration. We also inspect the warehouses that our products are stored in, and monitor the trucking companies that deliver our goods.

 

Litigation and publicity concerning food quality, health claims, and other issues could expose us to significant liabilities.

 

The packaged food industry can be adversely affected by litigation and complaints from customers and government authorities resulting from product quality, health claims, allergens, illness, and injury. Adverse publicity about these allegations may negatively affect the Company, regardless of whether the allegations are true. In addition, the food industry has been subject to a number of claims based on the nutritional content of food products they sell, and disclosure and advertising practices. Due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation and regulatory proceedings, we cannot predict the ultimate outcome of any such proceedings. An unfavorable outcome will have an adverse impact on our business. In addition, any litigation or regulatory proceedings may result in substantial costs.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

 

Under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, all executive officers, directors, and each person who is the beneficial owner of more than 10% of the common stock of a company that files reports pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act of 1934, are required to report the ownership of such common stock, options, and stock appreciation rights (other than certain cash only rights) and any changes in that ownership with the SEC.
