1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS
Organization
Investview,
Inc. was incorporated on January 30, 1946, under the laws of the state of Utah as the Uintah Mountain Copper Mining Company. In January
2005, we changed domicile to Nevada and changed our name to Voxpath Holding, Inc. In September of 2006, we merged with The Retirement
Solution Inc. and then changed our name to TheRetirementSolution.Com, Inc. Subsequently, in October 2008 we changed our name to Global
Investor Services, Inc., before changing our name to Investview, Inc., on March 27, 2012.
Effective
April 1, 2017, we closed on a Contribution Agreement with the members of Wealth Generators, LLC, a limited liability company (“Wealth
Generators”), pursuant to which the Wealth Generators members contributed 100% of the outstanding securities of Wealth Generators
in exchange for an aggregate of 1,358,670,942 shares of our common stock. Following this transaction, Wealth Generators became our wholly
owned subsidiary, and the former members of Wealth Generators became our stockholders and controlled the majority of our outstanding
common stock.
On
June 6, 2017, we entered into an Acquisition Agreement with Market Trend Strategies, LLC, a company whose members are also former members
of our management. Under the Acquisition Agreement, we spun-off our operations that existed prior to the merger with Wealth Generators
and sold the intangible assets used in those pre-merger operations in exchange for Market Trend Strategies’ assumption of $419,139
in pre-merger liabilities.
On
February 28, 2018, we filed a name change for Wealth Generators, LLC to Kuvera, LLC (“Kuvera”).
On
January 17, 2019, we renamed our non-operating wholly owned subsidiary WealthGen Global, LLC to SAFETek, LLC, a Utah limited liability
company.
On
January 11, 2021, we filed a name change for Kuvera, LLC to iGenius, LLC (“iGenius”) and on February 2, 2021, we filed a
name change for Kuvera (N.I.) Limited to iGenius Global LTD.
On
September 20, 2021, the Board of Directors approved a change in our fiscal year from March 31 to December 31.
Nature
of Business
We
operate a financial technology (FinTech) services company in several different businesses. We deliver multiple products and services
through a direct selling network, also known as multi-level marketing, of independent distributors that offer our products and services
through a subscription-based revenue model to our distributors, as well as by our distributors to a large base of customers that we refer
to as “members”. Through this business, we provide research, education, and investment tools designed to assist the self-directed
investor in successfully navigating the financial markets. These services include research and education regarding equities, options,
FOREX, ETFs, binary options, and cryptocurrency. In addition to trading research and education, we also offer software applications to
assist the individual in debt reduction, increased savings, budgeting, and proper tax management. Each product subscription includes
a core set of trading tools and research along with the personal finance management suite to provide an individual with complete access
to the information necessary to cultivate and manage his or her financial situation. In addition to our education subscriptions, through
a distribution arrangement we have with a third party, we have provided our members with an opportunity to purchase through such third
party, a specialty form of adaptive digital currency called “ndau”. Through our direct selling model, we compensate our distributors
with commissions under a standard bonus plan that allows for discretionary bonuses based on performance.

We
also operate a blockchain technology business that provides leading-edge research, development, and FinTech services involving the
management of digital asset technologies with a focus on Bitcoin mining and the new generation of digital assets. We currently own
and manage nearly 5,000 next-generation Bitcoin application-specific integrated circuit (“ASIC”) miner machines, with
over 99% of such machines being powered by renewable energy sources, mainly hydropower plants and geothermal. We are also developing
new and more efficient ways to mine cryptocurrencies through innovations in hardware, firmware, and additional ways to develop and
utilize renewable energy sources, to increase the hash rate, uptime, profitability, and overall ROI of our crypto currency mining
operations.
Since
2021, we have attempted to develop a brokerage and financial markets business. This was originally designed to, among other things,
commercialize on the proprietary trading platform we acquired in September 2021 from MPower Trading Systems, LLC
(“MPower”), to take advantage of the market’s increasing acceptance and expansion of the ownership and use of
digital currencies as an investable asset class, and to proactively respond to increasing regulatory scrutiny relative to
cryptocurrency products. Towards that end, in March 2021, we agreed to acquire a brokerage firm owned by an affiliate of our former
chief executive officer. However, having been unable to secure the requisite FINRA approval by the expiration of that agreement, we
terminated the transaction on June 14, 2022, and have since then continued our search for alternative acquisitions within the
brokerage industry. Further, until we are able to start this business, we recently elected to winddown the registration of a dormant
investment advisor and commodity trading advisor we own as we concluded there to be no material benefit to retaining an interest in
these regulated businesses until we are able to launch our broader-based financial services model.
NOTE
2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of Accounting
Our
policy is to prepare our financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations (Regulation
S-X) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the operating
results that may be expected for the filing of our December 31, 2023 Form 10-K. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2022 consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report
on Form 10-K.
Principles
of Consolidation
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Investview, Inc., and our wholly owned subsidiaries: iGenius, LLC (formerly
Kuvera, LLC), Apex Tek, LLC (formerly Razor Data, LLC), SAFETek, LLC (formerly WealthGen Global, LLC), United Games, LLC, United League,
LLC, Investment Tools & Training, LLC, iGenius Global LTD (formerly Kuvera (N.I.) LTD), Investview Financial Group Holdings, LLC,
Investview MTS, LLC, and MyLife Wellness Company. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Financial
Statement Reclassification
Certain
account balances from prior periods have been reclassified in these consolidated financial statements to conform to current period classifications.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of these financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.

Foreign
Exchange
We
have consolidated the accounts of Kuvera France S.A.S. into our consolidated financial statements. The operations of Kuvera France S.A.S.
were conducted in France through its closure date in June of 2021 and its functional currency is the Euro. Subsequent to June 2021 we
maintained a Euro bank account in France that had minimal transactions. The Euro bank account was closed in April 2022.
Prior
to June 2021, the financial statements of Kuvera France S.A.S. were prepared using their functional currency and were translated into
U.S. dollars (“USD”). Assets and liabilities were translated into USD at the applicable exchange rates at period-end. Stockholders’
equity was translated using historical exchange rates. Revenue and expenses were translated at the average exchange rates for the period.
Any translation adjustments were included as foreign currency translation adjustments in accumulated other comprehensive income in our
stockholders’ equity (deficit).
Subsequent
to June 2021 and prior to the closure of the Euro bank account in April 2022, we translated all transactions in our Euro bank account
into USD and translated the ending bank balance into USD at the applicable exchange rate at period-end.
The
following rates were used to translate the accounts of Kuvera France S.A.S. into USD for the following operating periods.

Concentration
of Credit Risk
Financial
instruments that potentially expose us to concentration of credit risk include cash, accounts receivable, and advances. We place our
cash and temporary cash investments with credit quality institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of the FDIC insurance
limit of $250,000. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, cash balances that exceeded FDIC limits were $16,443,553 and $18,202,860,
respectively. We have not experienced significant losses relating to these concentrations in the past.
Cash
Equivalents and Restricted Cash
For
purposes of reporting cash flows, we consider all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to
be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had no highly liquid debt instruments.
The
following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash reported within the balance sheet that sum to
the total of the same such amounts shown in the statement of cash flows.

Receivables
Receivables
are carried at net realizable value, representing the outstanding balance less an allowance for doubtful accounts based on a review of
all outstanding amounts. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by regularly evaluating individual receivables and
receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received. We
had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $722,324 and $719,342 as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. A portion of
our Receivables balance is for amounts held in reserve by our merchant processors for future returns and chargebacks. The amount held
in reserve was $875,900 and $775,000 as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Fixed
Assets
Fixed
assets are stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. When retired or otherwise
disposed, the carrying value and accumulated depreciation of the fixed asset is removed from its respective accounts and the net difference
less any amount realized from disposition is reflected in earnings. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs which do not extend the
useful lives of the related assets are expensed as incurred.
Fixed
assets were made up of the following at each balance sheet date:

in our general and administrative expenses on our statement of operation.
Long-Lived
Assets – Intangible Assets & License Agreement
We
account for our cryptocurrencies and intangible assets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting
Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 350-30, General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill, and ASC Subtopic 360-10-05, Accounting
for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. ASC Subtopic 350-30 requires assets to be measured based on the fair value of the
consideration given or the fair value of the assets (or net assets) acquired, whichever is more clearly evident and, thus, more reliably
measurable. Our cryptocurrencies are deemed to have an indefinite useful life; therefore, amounts are not amortized, but rather are assessed
for impairment as further discussed in our impairment policy. Under ASC Subtopic 350-30 any intangible asset with a useful life is required
to be amortized over that life and the useful life is to be evaluated every reporting period to determine whether events or circumstances
warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. If the estimate of useful life is changed the remaining carrying amount of
the intangible asset is amortized prospectively over the revised remaining useful life. Costs of internally developing, maintaining,
or restoring intangible assets are recognized as an expense when incurred.
We
hold cryptocurrency-denominated assets and include them in our consolidated balance sheet as other assets. The value of our cryptocurrencies
as of March, 31 2023 and December 31, 2022 were $2,200,658 ($2,079,548 current and $121,110 restricted long term) and $2,474,096 ($2,360,957
current and $113,139 restricted long term), respectively. Cryptocurrencies purchased or received for payment from customers are recorded
in accordance with ASC 350-30 and cryptocurrencies awarded to the Company through its mining activities ($2,070,819 and $3,576,973 for
the three months ended March, 31 2023 and 2022, respectively) are accounted for in connection with the Company’s revenue recognition
policy. The use of cryptocurrencies is accounted for in accordance with the first in first out method of accounting. For the three months
ended March, 31 2023 and 2022 we recorded realized gains (losses) on our cryptocurrency transactions of $242,572 and $(182,789), respectively.
On
March 22, 2021, we entered into Securities Purchase Agreement to acquire the operating assets and intellectual property rights of MPower
Trading Systems LLC, a company controlled and partially owned by David B. Rothrock and James R. Bell, two of our board members. As a
result, we obtained Prodigio, a proprietary software-based trading platform with applications within the brokerage industry, which was
valued at $7,240,000 and recorded on our balance sheet as an intangible asset as of December 31, 2021. The intangible asset was expected
to have a definite life, however, during the year ended December 31, 2022 the software had not been placed in service, therefore a useful
life had not been assigned and no amortization had been recorded. Instead, as of December 31, 2022, the intangible asset was conservatively
impaired due to a question on the recoverability of the value recorded.

AS OF MARCH 31, 2023
(Unaudited)
Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets
We
have adopted ASC Subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360-10”). ASC 360-10 requires that long-lived assets
and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable or when the historical cost carrying value of an asset may no longer
be appropriate. Events relating to recoverability may include significant unfavorable changes in business conditions, recurring losses,
or a forecasted inability to achieve break-even operating results over an extended period.
We
evaluate the recoverability of long-lived assets based upon future net cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual
disposition. Should impairment in value be indicated, the carrying value of intangible assets will be adjusted and an impairment loss
is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and fair value or disposable value. During the three months
ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022 no impairment was recorded.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
Fair
value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date, based on our principal or, in the absence of a principal, most advantageous market for the
specific asset or liability.
U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles provide for a three-level hierarchy of inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value,
defined as follows:
|
Level 1: |
Inputs that are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets
or liabilities in active markets that the entity can access. |
|
|
|
|
Level 2: |
Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that
are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability,
including: |
|
- | quoted
prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; |
|
- | quoted
prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; |
|
- | inputs
other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and |
|
- | inputs
that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation
or other means. |
|
Level 3: |
Inputs that are unobservable and reflect management’s
own assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available
in the circumstances (e.g., internally derived assumptions surrounding the timing and amount of expected cash flows). |
Our
financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable, and debt. We have determined that the book value of
our outstanding financial instruments as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, approximates the fair value due to their short-term
nature or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates.
Items
recorded or measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the accompanying consolidated financial statements consisted of the following

Revenue
Recognition
Subscription
Revenue
Most
of our revenue is generated by subscription sales and payment is received at the time of purchase. We recognize subscription revenue
in accordance with ASC 606-10 where revenue is measured based on a consideration specified in a contract with a customer and recognized
when we satisfy the performance obligation specified in each contract. Our performance obligation is to provide services over a fixed
subscription period; therefore, we recognize revenue ratably over the subscription period and deferred revenue is recorded for the portion
of the subscription period subsequent to each reporting date. Additionally, we offer a designated trial period to first time subscription
customers, during which a full refund can be requested if a customer does not wish to continue with the subscription. Revenues are deferred
during the trial period as collection is not probable until that time has passed. Revenues are presented net of refunds, sales incentives,
credits, and known and estimated credit card chargebacks. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our deferred revenues were $2,689,636
and $2,074,574, respectively.
Mining
Revenue
Through
our wholly owned subsidiary, SAFETek, LLC, we leased equipment under a sales-type lease through June of 2020. In June of 2020 we cancelled
all leases and purchased all of the rights and obligations under the leases, which included obtaining ownership of all equipment. We
use the equipment on blockchain networks to validate and add blocks of transactions to blockchain ledgers (commonly referred to as “mining”).
As compensation for mining, we are issued fees from processors and/or block rewards that are newly created cryptocurrency units granted
to us. Our mining activities constitute our ongoing major and central operations of SAFETek, LLC. Because we do not have contracts, nor
do we have customers associated with our mining revenue, we recognize revenue when fees and/or rewards are settled, or ultimately granted
to us as a result of our mining activities.
Cryptocurrency
Revenue
We
generate revenue from the sale of cryptocurrency packages to our customers through an arrangement with third-party suppliers. The various
packages included different amounts of coin with differing rates of returns and terms and, in some cases prior to January 2022, included
a product protection option that allowed the purchaser to protect their initial purchase price. The protection allowed the purchaser
to obtain 50% of their purchase price at five years or 100% of their purchase price at ten years. Both the coin and the protection option
were delivered by third-party suppliers. During the fourth calendar quarter of 2021 we suspended any further offering of the protection
program in connection with the sale of ndau after the third-party provider was unable to comply with our standard vendor compliance protocols,
citing certain offshore confidentiality entitlements. That suspension has remained in place as we have been unable to further validate
the continued integrity of the protection program and the vendor’s ability to honor its commitments to our members.
We
recognize cryptocurrency revenue in accordance with ASC 606-10 where revenue is measured based on a consideration specified in a contract
with a customer and recognized when we satisfy the performance obligation specified in each contract. Our performance obligation is to
arrange for the third-parties to provide coin and protection (if applicable) to our customers and payment is received from our customers
at the time of order placement. All customers are given two weeks to request a refund, therefore we record a customer advance on our
balance sheet upon receipt of payment. After the two weeks have passed from order placement, we request our third-party supplier to deliver
coin and protection (if applicable), at which time we recognize revenue and the amounts due to our supplier on our books. As of March
31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our customer advances related to cryptocurrency revenue were $60,388 and $96,609, respectively.
Mining
Equipment Repair Revenue
Through
our wholly owned subsidiary, SAFETek, LLC, we repair broken mining equipment for sale to third-party customers. We recognize miner repair
revenue in accordance with ASC 606-10 where revenue is measured based on a consideration specified in a contract with a customer and
recognized when we satisfy the performance obligation specified in each contract. Our performance obligation is to deliver the promised
goods to our customers.

Inventory
Inventory
consists of finished goods to be sold as part of our miner repair revenue and materials that were purchased for refurbishment but will
be sold as purchased due to the Company winding down the refurbishment and sale of repaired miners. Inventory is valued at the lower
of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method and is inclusive of any shipping and tax costs. During the
three months ended March 31, 2023 we sold $50,000 of materials for $30,000. Therefore, we recognized a loss on disposal on assets of
$20,000. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the net realizable value of our inventory was $177,765 and $249,480, respectively.
Income
Taxes
Income
taxes are recorded in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets
for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statement or tax returns. Under this method,
deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities,
including operating losses and credit carryforwards, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected
to reverse.
Management
judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, our deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowance
recorded against our deferred tax assets. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the consideration of
all available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Changes in assumptions
in future periods may require we adjust our valuation allowance, which could materially impact our financial position and results of
operations. The Company recognizes the benefit of an uncertain tax position that it has taken or expects to take on its income tax return,
if such a position is more likely than not to be sustained.
Net
Income (Loss) per Share
We
follow ASC subtopic 260-10, Earnings per Share (“ASC 260-10”), which specifies the computation, presentation, and disclosure
requirements of earnings per share information. Basic income (loss) per share has been calculated based upon the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding. Diluted income (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options or other
contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted during the period. Dilutive securities having an anti-dilutive effect on
diluted earnings per share are excluded from the calculation.
The
following table illustrates the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

Lease
Obligation
We
determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in the operating lease right-of-use asset account,
the operating lease liability, current account, and the operating lease liability, long term account in our balance sheet. Right-of-use
assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease
payments arising from the lease.
Operating
lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease
term. For leases in which the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on
the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. We have elected to not apply the recognition
requirements of ASC 842 to short-term leases (leases with terms of twelve months or less). Lease terms include options to extend or terminate
the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for operating lease arrangements is recognized
on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We have elected the practical expedient and will not separate non-lease components from
lease components and will instead account for each separate lease component and non-lease component associated with the lease components
as a single lease component.
NOTE
3 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
We
have noted no recently issued accounting pronouncements that we have not yet adopted that we believe are applicable or would have a material
impact on our financial statements.
NOTE
4 – LIQUIDITY
Our
financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern that contemplates the
realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.
During
the three months ended March 31, 2023, we recorded a net income from operations of $392,372 and net income of $407,894. As of March 31,
2023 we have unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $19,234,285 and a working capital balance of $13,002,652. As of March 31, 2023
our unrestricted cryptocurrency balance was reported at a cost basis of $2,079,548. Management does not believe there are any liquidity

a convertible promissory note. The note is secured by collateral of the Company and its subsidiaries,

[4] | On
March 22, 2021, we entered into Securities Purchase Agreements to purchase 100% of the operating
assets of SSA Technologies LLC, an entity that owns and operates a FINRA-registered broker-dealer.
SSA is controlled and partially owned by Joseph Cammarata, our former Chief Executive Officer.
Commencing upon execution of the agreements and through the closing of the transactions,
we agreed to provide certain transition service arrangements to SSA. In connection with the
transactions, we entered into a Working Capital Promissory Note with SSA under which SSA
was to have advanced to us up to $1,500,000 before the end of 2021; however, SSA has only
provided advances of $1,200,000 to date. The note bears interest at the rate of 0.11% per
annum. The note was due and payable by January 31, 2022; however, has not yet been repaid
as we consider our legal options in light of SSA’s failure to complete its funding
obligations. During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, we recorded interest
expense of $330 on the note. The note was to have been secured by the pledge of 12,000,000
shares of our common stock; however, it remains unsecured as the pledge of shares was not
implemented at the closing of the loan. |
Other
Related Party Arrangements
During
the three months ended March 31, 2022, we entered into a Separation and Release Agreement (the “Separation Agreements”) with
Mario Romano and Annette Raynor, two of the Company’s founders and former members of management and the Board of Directors, and
Wealth Engineering, LLC, an affiliate of Mr. Romano and Ms. Raynor. Under the Separation Agreements, Mr. Romano and Ms. Raynor resigned
their positions as officers and directors of the Company effective immediately upon execution of the Separation Agreements as they each
transitioned to the roles of strategic advisors to the Company. In conjunction with the Separation Agreements Mr. Romano and Ms. Raynor
forfeited 75,000,000 shares each, which were returned to the Company and cancelled, and we repurchased a total of 43,101,939 shares from
Mr. Romano and Ms. Raynor in exchange for cash of $1,724,008, which was paid to federal and state taxing authorities on behalf of Wealth
Engineering, LLC as payment for the estimated federal and state taxes that Wealth Engineering, LLC may be subject to in connection with
the vesting of 63,333,333 Company restricted shares that vested on July 22, 2021 (see NOTE 9).
The
loans referenced in footnotes 1-3 above, were advanced under a Securities Purchase Agreement we entered into on April 27, 2020, with
DBR Capital. Under the Securities Purchase Agreement (which was subsequently amended and restated), DBR Capital agreed to advance up
to $11 million to us in a series of up to five closings through December 31, 2022, of which the amounts advanced covered in footnotes
1-3 above constituted the first three closings.
On
August 12, 2022, we and DBR Capital, entered into a Fourth Amendment to the now Amended and Restated Securities Purchase Agreement that
extends the deadlines for the fourth and fifth closings under that Agreement from December 31, 2022, to December 31, 2024. The fourth
and fifth closings remain at the sole discretion of DBR Capital and we cannot provide any assurance that they will occur when contemplated
or ever.

commencement of the Eatontown Lease, right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for new operating lease liabilities amounted to $110,097.
The three-year lease term of the Eatontown Lease was extended on a month-to-month basis commencing August 1, 2022 and was terminated
in February 2023. Under the lease, we were obligated to pay twelve monthly installments to cover an annual utility charge of $1.75 per
rentable square foot for electric usage within the demised premises. As the lessor has the right to digitally meter and charge us accordingly,
these payments were deemed variable and were expensed as incurred.

as of the closing date of the MPower sale transaction (September 3, 2021). For these accounting purposes, we concluded that the “fair
value” of the consideration for financial accounting purposes, at the if-converted market value of the underlying common shares
was $58.9 million, based on the closing market price of $0.1532 on the closing date of September 3, 2021, as discounted from $86.6 million
by 32% (or $27.7 million) to reflect the significant lock up period. The “fair value” valuation of the Class B Units, however,
was completed relying on a certain set of methodologies that are accepted for accounting purposes, and is not necessarily indicative
of the “fair market value” that may be implied relative to such Units in a commercial transaction not governed by financial
reporting standards. In particular, the methodology used to value the Class B Units at their “fair value” did not take into
account any blockage discounts that may otherwise apply after the expiration of the lock-up period in 2025; while other valuation methodologies,
not bound by financial reporting codifications, would possibly determine that the blockage discount associated with the resale of 565
million shares after the expiration of the lock-up period, into a marketplace that has limited market liquidity, could possibly have
a material downward influence on the valuation.
NOTE
10 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
In
the ordinary course of business, we may be, or have been, involved in legal proceedings. During the three months ended March 31, 2023,
we were not involved in any material legal proceedings, however, during November 2021 we received a subpoena from the United States Securities
and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the production of documents. We have reason to believe that the focus of the SEC’s
inquiry involves whether certain federal securities laws were violated in connection with, among other things, the offer and sale of
our now discontinued Apex sale and leaseback program, the operation of our direct selling network now known as iGenius, and the offer
and sale of cryptocurrency products. In the subpoena, the SEC advised that the investigation does not mean that the SEC has concluded
that we or anyone else has violated federal securities laws and or any other law. We believe that we have complied at all times with
the federal securities laws. However, we are aware of the evolving SEC commentary and rulemaking process relative to the characterization
of cryptocurrency products under federal securities laws that is sweeping through a large number of businesses that operate within the
cryptocurrency sector. We intend to cooperate fully with the SEC’s investigation and will continue to work with outside counsel
to review the matter.
We
generate revenue from the sale of cryptocurrency packages to our customers through an arrangement with a third-party supplier, certain
of which, until January 2022, included a product protection option provided by a third-party provider. According to marketing and legal
documents provided by such third-party provider, the product protection would allow the purchaser to protect its initial purchase price
by obtaining 50% of its purchase price at five years or 100% of its purchase price at ten years. In January 2022, we suspended any further
offering of the product protection option in the cryptocurrency packages after the third-party provider was unable to comply with our
standard vendor compliance protocols, citing certain offshore confidentiality entitlements. That suspension will remain in place until
we are able to further validate the continued integrity of the product protection and the vendor’s ability to honor its commitments
to our members. We cannot ensure that such third-party provider will comply with its contractual requirements, which could cause our
members to not achieve the level of return on their investments expected, and possibly expose us to claims that could have an adverse
effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results.
INVESTVIEW, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF MARCH 31, 2023
(Unaudited)
We
issued a promissory note to our former Chief Executive Officer, Joseph Cammarata, which, following certain modifications, on or about
March 30, 2021, was restated in the principal amount of $1,550,000 (the “Cammarata Note”). Although not originally convertible,
as per the March 30, 2021, amendment, the Cammarata Note became convertible at $0.02 per share, Thereafter, effective September 21, 2021,
and following another modification, the conversion price under the Cammarata Note was reduced to $0.008 per share. During February 2022,
we provided 30 days’ notice of our intent to retire and repay the Cammarata Note in cash. Having not timely received a properly
executed conversion notice within the proscribed period, and citing certain breaches of Mr. Cammarata’s fiduciary duty to us, as
well as damages incurred by us arising from Mr. Cammarata’s ongoing legal proceedings, on or about March 31, 2022, we tendered
to Mr. Cammarata cash payment in full for the Cammarata Note. As of the date of this Report, Mr. Cammarata has not accepted our tender
of the cash payment, and instead has asserted his entitlement to exercise his right to convert the Cammarata Note into our common shares.
Although we believe that our cash tender was appropriate under the terms of the Cammarata Note and our claims for damages by Mr. Cammarata
have merit, if Mr. Cammarata elects to challenge our cash tender in a court proceeding, and if we are unable to sustain our legal position
on the matter, Mr. Cammarata could receive up to approximately 203 million shares of our common stock upon conversion of the Cammarata
Note.
On
March 22, 2021, we entered into Securities Purchase Agreements to purchase 100% of the operating assets of SSA Technologies LLC, an entity
that owns and operates a FINRA-registered broker-dealer. SSA is controlled and partially owned by Joseph Cammarata, our former Chief
Executive Officer. Commencing upon execution of the agreements and through the closing of the transactions, we agreed to provide certain
transition service arrangements to SSA. In connection with the transactions, we entered into a Working Capital Promissory Note with SSA
under which SSA was to have advanced to us up to $1,500,000 before the end of 2021; however, SSA has only provided advances of $1,200,000
to date. The note bears interest at the rate of 0.11% per annum therefore we recognized $330 worth of interest expense on the loan during
the three months ended March 31, 2023. The note was due and payable by January 31, 2022; however, has not yet been repaid as we consider
our legal options in light of SSA’s failure to complete its funding obligations. The note was to have been secured by the pledge
of 12,000,000 shares of our common stock; however, it remains unsecured as the pledge of shares was not implemented at the closing of
the loan.
NOTE
11 – INCOME TAXES
For
the periods ended March 31, 2023, and March 31, 2022, the Company used a discrete effective tax rate method for recording income taxes,
as compared to an estimated full year annual effective tax rate method, as an estimate of the annual effective tax rate cannot be made.
Provision
for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was $95,062, resulting in an effective tax rate of 18.9%. Provision for income
taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2022, was $6,000, resulting in an effective tax rate of 0.3%. The provision for income taxes
was primarily impacted by pretax book income, permanent differences, and by the change in valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.
NOTE
12 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
