NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

 

NATURE OF BUSINESS

 

Financial Gravity Companies, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) are located in Allen, Texas and provides integrated tax, business, and financial solutions to small businesses, small business owners and high net worth individuals. The Company’s focus is on helping clients build wealth, most often with tax savings, lowering costs and improving efficiency. The wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company include: Financial Gravity Holdings, Inc., Financial Gravity Operations, Inc., Financial Gravity Tax, Inc., Financial Gravity Wealth, Inc., Financial Gravity Business, LLC, Financial Gravity Ventures, LLC., and Tax Master Network, LLC. (“TMN”) (formerly known as Tax Coach Software, LLC.)

 

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

A summary of the significant accounting polices consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) is as follows.

 

Basis of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash balances at several financial institutions located throughout the United States, which at times may exceed insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.

 

Receivables

 

Receivables include trade accounts receivable and are carried at the invoiced amount less an estimate made for doubtful accounts based on management’s review of outstanding balances. The collectability of the Company’s accounts receivable is reviewed on an ongoing basis, using historical payment trends and a review of specific accounts. Accounts receivable are written off after all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted and when management determines the amounts to be uncollectible. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $0 and $21,876 as of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively.

 

In the normal course of business, the Company may extend credit to its customers, on an unsecured basis, substantially all of whom are located in the United States of America. The Company does not believe that it is exposed to any significant risk of loss on accounts receivable.

 

Prepaid Expenses

 

Prepaid expenses consist of expenses the Company has paid for prior to the service or good being provided. These prepaid expenses will be recorded as expense at the time the service has been provided.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable assets to earnings over their estimated service lives by the straight-line method.

 

 

 

  7  

 

 

Maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred; major repairs and replacements are capitalized. When items of property or equipment are sold or retired, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in operations.

 

Property and equipment operated under material leases which transfer substantially all benefits and risks associated with the assets to the Company are capitalized. An asset and liability equal to the present or fair value, if appropriate, of minimum payments over the term of the leases are recorded. Amortization of the asset is computed using the straight-line method. Expenses associated with all other leases (operating leases) are charged to income as incurred.

 

Customer Relationships

 

The customer relationships acquired as part of the TMN purchase have been recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at $44,900, the value attributed to such relationships on the date of the purchase. The customer relationships are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a four-year estimated life. During each of the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded amortization expense of $2,806 and $5,612, respectively, on this intangible asset, which is included in amortization expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Accumulated amortization at March 31, 2019 was $39,287 and $33,675 at September 30, 2018.

 

Proprietary Content

 

The proprietary content acquired as a part of the TMN purchase has been recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at $525,100, the value attributed to such content on the date of the purchase. The proprietary content is being amortized on a straight-line basis over an eight-year estimated life. During each of the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded amortization expense of $16,410 and $32,819 on this intangible asset, which is included amortization expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Accumulated amortization at March 31, 2019 was $229,731 and $196,912 at September 30, 2018.

 

Trade Name

 

The trade name acquired as a part of the TMN purchase has been recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at $69,300, the value attributed to such name on the date of the purchase. Management has determined that the trade name is now fully impaired as of March 31, 2019. Accordingly, the asset has been fully written off, in the three months ended March 31, 2019.

 

Non-compete Agreements

 

Non-compete agreements entered into as a part of the TMN purchase have been recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at $26,300, the value attributed to such agreements on the date of the purchase. The non-compete agreements are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the five-year term of the non-compete clause of the agreement. During each of the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded amortization expense of $1,315 and $2,630 on this intangible asset, which is included in depreciation and amortization expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Accumulated amortization at March 31, 2019 was $18,410 and $15,780 at September 30,2018.

 

Intellectual Property

 

Financial Gravity maintains copyrights or trademarks on all of its printed marketing materials, the financialgravity.com website and other web pages, and proprietary software. Financial Gravity’s goal is to preserve its trade secrets and operate without infringing on the proprietary rights of other parties.

 

The Company accounts for Intellectual Property in accordance with GAAP and accordingly, Intellectual Property are stated at cost. Intellectual Property with indefinite lives is not amortized but are tested for impairment at least annually. Management has determined that the Intellectual Property have an indefinite life and do not consider the value of Intellectual Property recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet to be impaired as of March 31, 2019 or September 30, 2018.

 

 

 

  8  

 

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill represents the excess of the value of the purchase price and related costs over the identifiable assets from business acquisitions. The Company conducts an annual impairment assessment, at the reporting unit level, of its recorded goodwill. The Company assesses qualitative factors in order to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than it’s carrying amount. The qualitative factors evaluated by the Company include macro-economic conditions of the local business environment, overall financial performance, and other entity specific factors as deemed appropriate. If, through this qualitative assessment, the conclusion is made that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than it’s carrying amount, a two-step impairment test is performed. Management determined, by assessing the qualitative factors, that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than it’s carrying value. Management does not consider the value of goodwill recorded for TMN in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets to be impaired as of March 31, 2019 or September 30, 2018.

 

The fair values of the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed were determined primarily using the income approach, which determines the fair value for the asset based on the present value of cash flows projected to be generated by the asset. Projected cash flows are discounted at a rate of return that reflects the relative risk of achieving the cash flow and the time value of money. The fair value of relationships was determined by projecting expected cash flows and subtracting the portion of the cash flow derived by the relevant contributory assets.

 

The accompanying consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations, statement of changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows include the results of operations of the acquired subsidiaries from the date of acquisition.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for Federal and state income taxes pursuant to GAAP, which requires an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes based on tax effects of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities.

 

The Company accounts for all uncertain tax positions in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740 – Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties and disclosure related to uncertain income tax positions. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. There was no accrued interest or penalties as of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018.

 

From time to time, the Company is audited by taxing authorities. These audits could result in proposed assessments of additional taxes. The Company believes that its tax positions comply in all material respects with applicable tax law. However, tax law is subject to interpretation, and interpretations by taxing authorities could be different from those of the Company, which could result in the imposition of additional taxes. The Company’s Federal returns since 2015 are still subject for examination by taxing authorities.

 

Loss Per Share

 

Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net losses available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. Average number of common shares were 35,837,900 and 35,837,900 for the quarters ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Average number of common shares were 35,837,900 and 35,823,648 for the six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

For the three months and six months ended March 31, 2019, approximately 3,940,326 common stock shares were not added to the diluted average shares because inclusion of such shares would be antidilutive. The antidilutive shares for March 31, 2019 include 350,000 warrants and 3,590,326 in options. For the three months and six months ended March 31, 2018, approximately 3,430,646 common stock shares were not added to the diluted average shares because inclusion of such shares would be antidilutive. The antidilutive shares for March 31, 2018 include 350,000 warrants and 3,080,646 in options.

Revenue Recognition

 

Financial Gravity Wealth, Inc. generates investment management fees for services provided by the Company. Investment management fees include fees earned from assets under management by providing professional services to manage client investments.

 

Financial Gravity Tax, Inc. generates service income from consulting and other professional services performed.

 

Commission revenue is derived from the sale of annuities and premiums on life insurance policies held by third parties. The revenue is recognized at the time the policy is issued.

 

Revenue represents gross billings less discounts, and is calculated net of sales taxes, as applicable. Amounts invoiced for work not yet completed are shown as deferred revenue in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

 

Tax Master Network, Inc. has 3 types of services that are charged and collected on a month to month subscription basis (Tax Master basic, elite, and advanced membership, All-Stars coaching, Networker and Wire Service weekly broadcast email). None of these programs come with a long-term commitment or contract, and there is no up-front payment beyond the monthly subscription fee. Cancellations are processed within the month requested and memberships are closed at the end of the period for which the most recent payment was made. Members are not entitled to refunds for unused memberships.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncement

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”), which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The guidance requires entities to recognize revenue using the following five-step model: identify the contract with a customer, identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and recognize revenue as the entity satisfies each performance obligation. Adoption of this standard could result in retrospective application, either in the form of recasting all prior periods presented or a cumulative adjustment to equity in the period of adoption. The guidance was effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017.

 

On October 1, 2018 we adopted ASU 2014-09 using the full retrospective method. The Company completed its review of its material revenue streams and determined that there will be no impact to its consolidated financial statements, results of operations or liquidity. When comparing the Company’s current revenue recognition to the new applied revenue recognition under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, there was no change to the amount or timing of revenue recognized. Therefore, no quantitative adjustment was required to be made to the prior periods presented on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements after the adoption of ASC 606.

 

Advertising

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

Adjustments

 

All adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation for the periods presented have been reflected in the financial statements.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the Company will need to manage additional asset units under contract and/or additional financing to fully implement its business plan, including continued growth and establishment of a stronger brand.

 

On May 23, 2017, the Company and GHS Investments, LLC (“GHS Investments”) entered into an Equity Financing Agreement (the “Agreement”). The Agreement was filed as an exhibit to a registration statement on Form S-1, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 18, 2017. The Agreement contemplates a series of transactions, pursuant to which the Company will “put” shares of its common stock to GHS in consideration of the payment to the Company of eighty percent (80%) of the “Market Price” of such shares. “Market Price” shall mean the average of the two lowest trading prices of the Company’s Common Stock during the ten (10) consecutive trading days preceding the receipt of the applicable put notice. Accordingly, on each instance the Company exercises a put option, the Company will know in advance, both the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the put option, and the dollar amount of the purchase price for such shares. The maximum purchase price for shares to be purchased by GHS Investments under the Agreement is $11,000,000. To facilitate the sale of the shares so purchased by GHS Investments, the Company agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with GHS Investments, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to provide certain registration rights under the Securities Act of 1933, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and applicable state securities laws. The Agreement will terminate (i) when GHS Investments has purchased an aggregate of $11,000,000 of the common stock of the Company, or (ii) 36 months after the effective date of the Agreement, or (iii) at such time that the registration statement is no longer in effect.

 

Additionally, the Company is also actively seeking growth of its service offerings, both organically and via new client relationships. Management, in the ordinary course of business, is trying to raise additional capital through sales of common stock as well as seeking financing via equity or debt, or both from third parties. There are no assurances that additional financing will be available on favorable terms, or at all. If additional financing is not available, the Company will need to reduce, defer or cancel development programs, planned initiatives and overhead expenditures. The failure to adequately fund its capital requirements could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, the sale of additional equity securities to raise financing will result in additional dilution to the Company’s stockholders and incurring additional indebtedness could involve an increased debt service cash obligation, the imposition of covenants that restrict the Company’s operations or the Company’s ability to perform on its current debt service requirements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Future Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU Update No. 2017-02 Leases (Topic 842). Under the new guidance, a lessee will be required to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. Consistent with current GAAP, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. However, unlike current GAAP - which requires only capital leases to be recognized on the balance sheet - the new ASU will require both types of leases to be recognized on the balance sheet. ASU 2017-02 is effective for the years beginning after December 15, 2018 and for all periods presented. Early application of the amendments in this ASU is permitted. The Company does not expect any significant financial impact to the financial statements upon adoption of this standard.

7. INCOME TAXES

 

For the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the effective tax rate of 0% varies from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to state income taxes, net losses, certain nondeductible expenses, changes in the federal statutory rate are from 35% to 21%, and an increase in the valuation allowance associated with the net operating loss carryforwards. Our deferred tax assets related to net operating loss carryforwards remain fully reserved due to uncertainty of utilization of those assets.

 

A deferred tax liability or asset is determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates which will be in effect when these differences reverse. Deferred tax expense or benefit in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations are the result of changes in the assets and liabilities for deferred taxes. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by the amount for any tax benefits that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the current tax payable or refundable for the year plus or minus the net change in the deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred income taxes of the Company arise from the temporary differences between financial statement and income tax recognition of NOL carry-forwards.

 

The deferred tax assets and liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets include the following components at March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018:

 

    March 31, 2019     September 30, 2018  
Net non-current deferred tax assets:                
Net operating loss carry-forward   $ 1,203,460     $ 1,098,314  
Property and equipment     5,188       3,456  
 Total     1,208,648       1,101,770  
Net non-current deferred tax liabilities:                
Intangible assets     9,545       7,996  
                 
Net     1,199,103       1,093,774  
Less valuation allowance     (1,199,103 )     (1,093,774 )
Net deferred taxes   $     $

Forward-Looking Statements

 

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to help you understand our historical results of operations during the periods presented and our financial condition. This MD&A should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the accompanying notes and contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties and assumptions that could cause our actual results to differ materially from management’s expectations. See the sections entitled “Risk Factors” below.

 

Plan of Operations

 

Financial Gravity Companies, Inc. (“Financial Gravity”, “We” or the “Company”), based in Allen, Texas, was formed specifically to be the parent company of several subsidiaries that provide integrated tax, business, and financial solutions. Financial Gravity’s clients include small businesses, small business owners and high net worth individuals. The Company’s services are focused on helping clients make more money and build wealth, most often with tax savings, lowering costs and improving efficiency. In addition to expanding through client procurement and organic growth, Financial Gravity intends to make a number of acquisitions. The primary acquisition targets currently include accounting, bookkeeping, and financial advisory firms. In fiscal year 2015 the Company acquired two firms: Cloud9 Holdings Company (and its subsidiary Cloud9b2b) which was renamed Financial Gravity Business and Sash Corporation, doing business as Metro Data Processing (a Tulsa, OK payroll processor). In fiscal year 2016 the Company acquired Tax Coach Software LLC. The Company is actively identifying additional potential acquisition candidates to fuel more rapid growth.

Next, Financial Gravity designs a unique "Tax Blueprint®" which identifies several strategies for lowering the client's taxes.

 

The second step is to use the client’s custom Tax Blueprint® to build that business entity and documentation that captures the identified savings. This is called the Tax Operating System® (TOS). This process is repeated as required and tuned for optimal efficiency thus ensuring that the client receives the best service and optimal solutions in the phases of the business cycle during the year. Clients continue to pay a monthly or weekly subscription fee as part of their TOS service for ongoing tax planning, tax return preparation, payroll and bookkeeping services.

This business unit promises clients they’ll pay the lowest legal, moral and ethical taxes possible. Tax savings is the “tip of the spear” in all its offerings. No company has ever successfully married tax, wealth and business solutions together for Small Business Owners (SBOs) and high net worth individuals. Powered by its no-risk “2x Promise” (the Company guarantees to find double its initial fee in tax savings), clients are quick to sign up for proactive tax planning. Lowering their personal taxes then fuels insurance, wealth and business services sales. These multi-tiered sales provide a 4-8 times multiple to a typical accounting or bookkeeping practice.

 

SBO’s look for two things from a typical CPA and bookkeeping firm, (1). Lower personal income taxes; and (2). Numbers that help them run/grow their business better. There is no national firm that provides these two services at any level. Its tax planning sets us apart from typical accounting and tax preparation firms. The Company looks forward to setting up a client’s business to be tax efficient. The typical service model employed by CPA firms is oriented more toward compliance, which is the recording of historical data. These providers work on historical records instead of looking forward to proactively plan. SBOs are growing more and more frustrated with accountants who “put numbers in boxes” when what’s truly needed is a partner to help advise them in how to be more efficient in their business. Many SBOs can’t read a P/L or Balance Sheet and even when they can, the data is often too old to act on. As technology speeds up the pace of business real time data is becoming more important. Most CPAs don’t even calculate tax savings for their clients, as asking CPA’s to produce unique data to each client is outside the factory mentality of the profession. The average tax savings is over $20,000 per year per business owner. Financial Gravity Tax is pursuing several M&A and/or partnership opportunities to deliver on the product Bookkeeping with Purpose®, that will help deliver the promised tax savings and producer actionable real time data.

 

Financial Gravity Wealth, Inc.

 

After saving thousands in taxes, clients are happy to trust us with the management of their wealth, especially when treated to a different wealth management experience. Financial Gravity Wealth is a Registered Investment Advisory (RIA) firm. An RIA is an advisor or firm engaged in financial planning and wealth management business and is registered either with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) or state securities authorities. An RIA has a fiduciary duty to his or her clients, which means that he or she has a fundamental obligation to provide suitable investment advice and always act in the clients' best interests.

 

The Department of labor's fiduciary rule is officially dead. The fiduciary rule, also known officially as the “Conflict of Interest” rule, states advisers have to give conflict-free advice on retirement accounts, putting their clients' needs ahead of their own potential compensation.

Although the Department of labor’s Fiduciary Rule was struck down by the Fifth Circuit Court, we will still maintain the fiduciary standard as a company, because we think it is best for the client.

 

Only 5% of all financial planners are RIAs. The advantage of the RIA model is lower cost to the client. Also, since RIAs are not compensated by commissions on financial products, their advice is considered less biased and more accurate. Coupled with tax savings, its status as an RIA makes the Company very attractive to the most profitable clients. 

 

Financial Gravity Business, LLC.

 

The complexity of Advanced Tax Planning next fuels Financial Gravity Business services. The first product that was developed with a partner is Advisor Architect. This product is designed to help financial advisors and accountants run their businesses better. The Company intends to test the service offering / coaching program with the first two markets where it has the most experience and then roll out the service offering to other industries at a later date. Clients spend some of their tax savings from Financial Gravity Tax planning for these services, rendering them “cost neutral”.

 

The Company has also developed its Partner Programs that teach financial advisors how to serve an underserved community, the Small Business Owner. Financial Gravity Business is the only non-product centric business system for financial advisors that helps them serve the needs of the small business owner without needing to sell a financial services product like a life insurance policy or a 401(k) plan.

 

 

 

  19  

 

 

To broaden the skillset of CPAs, the Company has created the Certified Tax Master® designation and partner program for CPA’s and Enrolled Agents (“EA’s”). To its knowledge, there is no program offering like this of its kind available elsewhere. This program was created in Financial Gravity Business but will be sold and build revenue in the Tax Coach Software platform.

 

Financial Gravity Ventures, LLC

 

This entity in the Company’s corporate family employs its M&A strategy to acquire talent and build wealth for Financial Gravity Companies, Inc. and acquired companies. As mentioned earlier, Financial Gravity is pursuing several acquisition opportunities.

 

Tax Master Network, LLC formerly Tax Coach Software, LLC.

 

Tax Master Network (TMN) was a key acquisition in fiscal year 2016. TMN supports over 550 CPA and Enrolled Agent professionals, training them to add crucial tax planning services to support clients. Not only did this acquisition bring high-end tax planning to Financial Gravity, but the TMN customer base adds significant business development opportunities for Financial Gravity Wealth. The Company developed the Certified Tax Master® for this group and rolled out new client systems in mid-2016.

 

Results of Operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the three and six months ended March 31, 2018

 

Revenues

 

For the quarter ended March 31, 2019, revenues increased $76,186 to $1,161,256 from $1,085,070 for the quarter ended March 31, 2018. Revenue has increased slightly across revenue streams. For the six months ended March 31, 2019, revenues increased $50,552 to $2,055,521 from $2,004,969 for to the six months ended March 31, 2018. Revenue has increased slightly across revenue streams.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Cost of services increased by $11,426 to $15,505 for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 from $4,079 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, and increased by $16,099, to $29,310 from $13,211 for the six months ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, respectively. The increase is primarily related to increased credit card processing fees.

 

Professional services expenses include legal expense, professional fees, contract labor, business consulting and computer and internet expense. Professional services expenses decreased $91,257 to $91,325 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $182,582 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. This decrease is primarily due to the termination of a consulting agreement with DNU, resulting in savings of $110,935 in three months ended March 31, 2018, and legal fees, decrease of $40,495. For the six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, professional services decreased $198,844, consisting primarily of a cessation of the consulting fee arrangement, resulting in savings of 219,656, and a decrease in legal fees of $82,919.

 

Depreciation and amortization expenses include depreciation on fixed assets and amortization of definite lived intangibles. Additionally, in the three months ended March 31, 2019, the investment in Trademarks was deemed fully impaired, and a charge of $69,300 was recorded to amortization for this asset. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $71,205 and $74,476 for the three months and six months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same periods the prior year. The increase is due to additional purchases of fixed assets and leasehold improvements purchased in the last twelve months, and the aforementioned, one-time charge to amortization of the Trademark asset.

 

General and administrative expenses decreased $562,565 to $168,531 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $731,096 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and decreased $713,007 to $258,988 from $972,005 for the six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. The decrease is primarily due to regular reevaluation of costs, aimed at eliminating unnecessary costs, and reducing them by elimination, consolidation or renegotiation.

 

 

  20  

 

 

Management fees decreased $20,000 to $43,500 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $63,500 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, and decreased by $26,500 for the six months ending on those dates. These are related party fees.

 

Marketing expenses decreased $52,336 to $29,971 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $82,307 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and decreased $81,230, to $61,615 from $142,845 for the six months ended those dates. The decrease is primarily due to the Company bringing more of the marketing in-house instead of outsourcing.

 

Salaries and wages expenses increased $446,801 to $976,979 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $635,178 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and increased $521,685 for the six months ending those dates. The major drivers of this are increases in commissions paid, $147,668, and compensation for stock grants awarded to an officer, of $105,000. Additionally, there were some staff increases, period over period.

 

The Company experienced an increase in its bottom line of $365,335 to a net loss of $316,695 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 from a net loss of $682,030 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, primarily attributable to the reasons noted above, offset by an increase in interest expense of $41,832. Likewise, for the six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Net Loss improved by $425,181, to a loss of $520,271, from a loss of $945,452 for the same period in 2018.

 

Significant Accounting Policies

 

Certain critical accounting policies affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of Financial Gravity’s consolidated financial statements. These policies are contained in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates and Assumptions .

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable .

 

Investment management fees are recognized as services are provided by the Company. Investment management fees include fees earned from assets under management by providing professional services to manage clients’ investments.

 

Services income is recognized as consulting and other professional services are performed by the Company.

 

Commission revenue is derived from the sale of premiums on life insurance policies held by third parties. The revenue is recognized at the time the policy is issued.

 

Revenue represents gross billings less discounts, net of sales tax, as applicable. Amounts invoiced for work not yet completed are shown as deferred revenue in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

 

Tax Master Network Software has 5 types of services that are charged and collected on a month to month subscription basis (Tax Master basic, advance, and elite membership, all-stars coaching, and networker). None of these programs come with a long-term commitment or contract, and there is no up-front payment beyond the monthly subscription fee. Cancellations are processed within the month requested and memberships are closed at the end of the period for which the most recent payment was made. Members are not entitled to refunds for unused memberships.

 

 

 

  21  

 

 

Trade accounts receivable are carried at the invoiced amount less estimate made for doubtful accounts based on management’s review of outstanding balances. The collectability of the Company’s accounts receivable is reviewed on an ongoing basis, using historical payment trends and review of specific accounts. Accounts receivable are written off after all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted and when management determines the amounts to be uncollectible. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received.

 

In the normal course of business, the Company extends credit on an unsecured basis to its customers, substantially all of whom are located in the United States of America. The Company does not believe that it is exposed to any significant risk of loss on accounts receivable.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company recognizes the fair value of stock-based compensation awards as wages in the accompanying statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which is based on risk-free rates of 2.89% in 2019 and 1.49% to 2.55% in 2018, dividend yield of 0%, expected life of 2 years and volatility of 35% to 40%.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of March 31, 2019, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $5,086. The decrease of $27,134 in cash and cash equivalents during the six months ended March 31, 2019 was due to net cash provided by operating activities of $6,862, net cash used by investing activities of $29,881, and net cash used by financing activities of $4,115.

 

Net cash provided by operating activities was $6,862 for the six months ended March 31, 2019. The net cash used in operating activities was due to net loss of $520,271 adjusted primarily by the following: (1) depreciation and amortization of $128,600, stock based compensation of $197,344, increase in accounts payable – trade of $132,368, and an increase in accrued expenses of $58,191.

 

Net cash used by investing activities of $29,881 was comprised of purchases of PP&E, $29,006 and purchases of trademarks, $875.

 

Net cash used by financing activities was $4,115 for the six months ended March 31, 2019. Financing activities consisted of new borrowings through notes payable, $155,000, net of reductions of amounts due on the line of credit, $6,742, and repayments on notes payable, $152,373.

 

As shown below, at March 31, 2019, our contractual cash obligations totaled approximately $1,525,117, all of which consisted of operating lease obligations and debt principal.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the Company will need additional financing to fund additional material capital expenditures and to fully implement its business plan. There are no assurances that additional financing will be available on favorable terms, or at all. If additional financing is not available, the Company will need to reduce, defer or cancel development programs, planned initiatives and overhead expenditures as a way to supplement the cash flows generated by operations. The Company has a backlog of fees under contract in addition to the Company’s accounts receivable balance. The failure to adequately fund its capital requirements could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, the sale of additional equity securities to raise financing will result in additional dilution to the Company’s stockholders and incurring additional indebtedness could involve the imposition of covenants that restrict our operations. Management is trying to raise additional capital through sales of common stock as well as seeking financing from third parties, via both debt and equity, to balance the Company’s cash requirements and to finance specific capital projects.

 

Off Balance Sheet Transactions and Related Matters

 

Other than operating leases discussed in Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements, there are no off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements, obligations (including contingent obligations), or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons that have, or may have, a material effect on financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources of the Company.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Interest Rate Risk. Our business is leveraged and, accordingly, is sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates. Any significant increase in interest rates could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based on that evaluation, we concluded that, as of the date of the evaluation, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our periodic filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to management, including the officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. It should be noted that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that it will detect or uncover failures within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in the Company’s periodic reports.

 

During the period covered by this report, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Part II Other Information

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, we are a party to or otherwise involved in legal proceedings, claims and other legal matters, arising in the ordinary course of our business or otherwise. A subsidiary of the Company is currently involved in one legal proceeding, the outcome of which will not be material to our ability to operate or market our services, our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS.

 

The Company’s limited operating history may not serve as an adequate basis to judge its future prospects and results of operations . Financial Gravity has a relatively limited operating history. Its limited operating history and the unpredictability of the wealth management industry make it difficult for investors to evaluate its business. An investor in its securities must consider the risks, uncertainties and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in rapidly evolving markets.

 

The Company will need additional financing to implement its business plan. The Company will need additional financing to fully implement its business plan in a manner that not only continues to expand an already established direct-to-consumer approach, but also allows the Company to establish a stronger brand name in all the areas in which it operates. In particular, the Company will need additional financing to:

 

  · Effectuate its business plan and further develop its product and service lines;
  · Expand its facilities, human resources, and infrastructure; and
  · Increase its marketing efforts and lead generation.

 

There are no assurances that additional financing will be available on favorable terms, or at all. If additional financing is not available, the Company will need to reduce, defer or cancel development programs, planned initiatives and overhead expenditures. The failure to adequately fund its capital requirements could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, the sale of additional equity securities to raise financing will result in additional dilution to the Company’s stockholders and incurring additional indebtedness could involve the imposition of covenants that restrict the Company’s operations.

 

The Company’s products and services are subject to changes in applicable laws and regulations . The Company’s business is particularly subject to changing federal and state laws and regulations related to the provision of financial services to consumers. The Company’s continued success depends in part on its ability to anticipate and respond to these changes, and the Company may not be able to respond in a timely or commercially appropriate manner. If the Company fails to adjust its products and services in response to changing legal and/or regulatory requirements, the ability to deliver its products and services may be hindered, which in turn could have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company may continue to encounter substantial competition in its business . The Company believes that existing and new competitors will continue to improve their products and services, as well as introduce new products and services with competitive price and performance characteristics. The Company expects that it must continue to innovate, and to invest in product development and productivity improvements, to compete effectively in the several markets in which the Company participates. The Company’s competitors could develop a more efficient product or service or undertake more aggressive and costly marketing campaigns than those implemented by the Company, which could adversely affect the Company’s marketing strategies and have an adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Important factors affecting the Company's current ability to compete successfully include:

 

  · lead generation and marketing costs;
  · service delivery protocols;
  · branded name advertising; and
  · product and service pricing.

 

 

 

  24  

 

 

In periods of reduced demand for the Company's products and services, the Company can either choose to maintain market share by reducing product and service pricing to meet the competition, or maintain its product and service pricing, which would likely sacrifice market share. Sales and overall profitability may be reduced in either case. In addition, there can be no assurance that additional competitors will not enter the Company's existing markets, or that the Company will be able to continue to compete successfully against its competition.

 

The Company may not successfully manage its growth . The Company’s success will depend upon the expansion of its operations and the effective management of its growth, which will place a significant strain on its management and on its administrative, operational and financial resources. To manage this growth, it must expand its facilities, augment its operational, financial and management systems, and hire and train additional qualified personnel. If it is unable to manage its growth effectively, its business would be harmed.

 

The Company relies on key executive officers, and their knowledge of its business and technical expertise would be difficult to replace . The Company is highly dependent on its executive officers. If one or more of the Company's senior executives or other key personnel are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, the Company may not be able to replace them easily or at all, and the Company’s business may be disrupted. Competition for senior management personnel is intense, the pool of qualified candidates is very limited, and it may not be able to retain the services of its senior executives or attract and retain high-quality senior executives in the future. Such failure could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The Company may never pay dividends to its common stockholders . The Company currently intends to retain its future earnings to support operations and to finance expansion; accordingly, the Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends on common stock will be at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors, and will depend upon, among other things, earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, level of indebtedness and other considerations the Board of Directors considers relevant. There is no assurance that future dividends will be paid on common stock or, if dividends are paid, the amount thereof.

 

The Company’s common stock is quoted through the OTC Markets, which may have an unfavorable impact on its stock price and liquidity . The Company’s common stock is quoted on the OTC Markets, which is a significantly more limited market than the New York Stock Exchange or NASDAQ. The trading volume may be limited by the fact that many major institutional investment funds, including mutual funds, follow a policy of not investing in OTC Markets stocks and certain major brokerage firms restrict their brokers from recommending OTC Markets stocks because they are considered speculative and volatile.

 

The trading volume of the Company’s common stock has been and may continue to be limited and sporadic. As a result, the quoted price for the Company’s common stock on the OTC Markets may not necessarily be a reliable indicator of its fair market value.

 

Additionally, the securities of small capitalization companies may trade less frequently and in more limited volume than those of more established companies. The market for small capitalization companies is generally volatile, with wide price fluctuations not necessarily related to the operating performance of such companies.

 

The Company’s common stock is subject to price volatility unrelated to its operations . The market price of the Company’s common stock could fluctuate substantially due to a variety of factors, including market perception of the Company’s ability to achieve its planned growth, operating results of the Company and of other companies in the same industry, trading volume in the Company’s common stock, changes in general conditions in the economy and the financial markets or other developments affecting the Company or its competitors.

 

The Company’s common stock is classified as a “penny stock.” Rule 3a51-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a minimum bid price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to a limited number of exceptions which are not available to us. It is likely that the Company’s common stock will be considered to be a penny stock for the immediately foreseeable future.

 

 

 

  25  

 

 

For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the penny stock rules require that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks and the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must obtain financial information and investment experience and objectives of the investor, make a reasonable determination that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person, and make a reasonable determination that that person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

 

The broker or dealer must also provide disclosure to its customers, prior to executing trades, about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading, the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions.

 

Because of these regulations, broker-dealers may not wish to furnish the necessary paperwork and disclosures and/or may encounter difficulties in their attempt to buy or sell shares of the Company’s common stock, which may in turn affect the ability of Company stockholders to sell their shares.

 

Accordingly, the penny stock classification adversely affects any market liquidity for the Company’s common stock and subjects the shares to certain risks associated with trading in penny stocks. These risks include difficulty for investors in purchasing or disposing of shares, difficulty in obtaining accurate bid and ask quotations, difficulty in establishing the market value of the shares, and a lack of securities analyst coverage.

2. Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;
