The consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

The Company is also required to consolidate any variable interest entities (VIEs), of which it is the primary beneficiary, as defined. Based on the Company’s analysis pursuant to ASC 810-10-25, Consolidations , the Company does not have any VIEs that need to be consolidated at this time. When the Company does not have a controlling interest in an entity, but exerts a significant influence over the entity, the Company would apply the equity method of accounting.

Foreign Currency Transaction and Translation

The Company’s principal country of operations is Korea. The financial position and results of operations of the Company are determined using the local currency, Korean Won (“KRW”), as the functional currency.

The financial position and results of operations of I-ON, Ltd, the Japanese subsidiary of the Company, are initially recorded using its local currency, Japanese Yen (“JPY”). Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated to the functional currency at the functional currency rate of exchange at the balance sheet date. The results of operations denominated in foreign currency are translated at the average rate of exchange during the reporting period. All differences are reflected in profit or loss. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the exchange rate was JPY 10.28 and JPY 10.13 per KRW, respectively. The average exchange rate for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was JPY 10.22 and JPY 9.89 per KRW, respectively.

Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. The results of operations are translated from KWR to US Dollar at the weighted average rate of exchange during the reporting period. The registered equity capital denominated in the functional currency is translated at the historical rate of exchange at the time of capital contribution. All translation adjustments resulting from the translation of the financial statements into the reporting currency, US Dollar, are dealt with as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Translation adjustments net of tax were a net loss of $95,839 and net gain of $136,000 for the three-months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the exchange rate was KRW 1,137.80 and KRW 1,118.10 per US Dollar, respectively.

Impairment analysis for long-lived assets and intangible assets

The Company’s long-lived assets and other assets (consisting of property and equipment and purchased intangible assets) are reviewed for impairment in accordance with the guidance of the FASB ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment and FASB ASC 205 Presentation of Financial Statements . The Company tests for impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of an asset to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Impairment evaluations involve management’s estimates on asset useful lives and future cash flows. Actual useful lives and cash flows could be different from those estimated by management which could have a material effect on our reporting results and financial positions. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary. The Company had not experienced impairment losses on its long-lived assets and intangible assets during any of the periods presented.

Earnings Per Share

FASB ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share , requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (EPS) computations. Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding excludes common stock equivalents, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements . ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is defined under ASC 820 as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants.

ASC 820 establishes a hierarchy of valuation inputs based on the extent to which the inputs are observable in the marketplace. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity and unobservable inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions about how market participants would value an asset or liability based on the best information available.

Valuation techniques used to measure fair value under ASC 820 must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value.

The following describes the hierarchy of inputs used to measure fair value and the primary valuation methodologies used by the Company for financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Table of Contents

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

The three levels of inputs are as follows:

Level 1

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has an ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2

Inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the same term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3

Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term financial instruments, short-term loans, accounts receivable, investments, accounts payables and debt. The carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their fair value due to their short maturities. The carrying amount of our debt approximates fair value because the interest rates on these instruments approximate the interest rate on debt with similar terms available to us.

The Company also has financial instruments classified within the fair value hierarchy, which consists of the following:

•

Investments in privately-held companies, where quoted market prices are not available, accounted for as a vailable-for-sale securities, classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy, and are recorded as an asset on the consolidated balance sheet

•

Detachable warrants issued in connection with the convertible debt that meets the definition of a derivative, classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy, which is recorded as additional paid-in-capital on the consolidated balance sheet

•

An equity purchase put option that meets the definition of a derivative, classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy, which is recorded as an asset on the consolidated balance sheet

The derivatives are evaluated under the hierarchy of ASC 480-10, ASC Paragraph 815-25-1 and ASC Subparagraph 815-10-15-74 addressing embedded derivatives. The fair value of the Level 3 financial instruments was determined with the assistance of an independent third-party valuation specialist using an Option Pricing Model.

The following table summarize the Company’s fair value measurements by level at March 31, 2019 for the assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

Advertising

Costs associated with advertising and promotions are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense amounted to $10,723 and $7,817 for three-months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Employee Stock Based Compensation

The Company accounts for its share-based compensation plan in accordance with FASB ASC 718, Stock Compensation, which establishes a fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation plans. The Company records stock compensation expense based on the value of the number of shares vesting specified periods over three years.

Stock based compensation issued to employees and members of our board of directors is measured at the date of grant based on the estimated fair value of the award, net of estimated forfeitures. The grant date fair value of a stock-based award is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period of the award on a straight-line basis.

For purposes of determining the variables used in the calculation of stock based compensation issued to employees , the Company performs an analysis of current market data and historical data to calculate an estimate of implied volatility, the expected term of the option and the expected forfeiture rate. With the exception of the expected forfeiture rate, which is not an input, we use these estimates as variables in the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Depending upon the number of stock options granted any fluctuations in these calculations could have a material effect on the results presented in our consolidated statements of operations. In addition, any differences between estimated forfeitures and actual forfeitures could also have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Non-controlling Interests

Non-controlling interests are measured at their proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets at the acquisition date.

Value Added Tax

National Tax Service in Korea administered Value Added Tax under the Tax Reform Act of 1976 promulgated by the National Assembly. Value added tax is imposed on goods sold in or imported into Korea and on services provided within Korea. Value added tax in Korea is charged on an aggregated basis at a rate of 10% on the full price collected for the goods sold or for the taxable services provided. Value added tax paid for the three-months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were $74,274 and $127,442 , respectively.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Pronouncements Not Yet Effective

In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-18, Collaborative Arrangements (Topic 808)—Clarifying the Interaction between Topic 808 and Topic 606 (“ASU 2018-18”). The amendments in ASU 2018-18 clarify that certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants should be accounted for as revenue under ASC 606 when the collaborative arrangement participant is a customer in the context of a unit of account. The amendments under ASU 2018-18 are effective for interim and annual fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2019 , with early adoption permitted. The amendments in ASU 2018-18 should be applied retrospectively to the date of initial application of ASC 606. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In October 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-17, “Consolidation (Topic 810): Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities” (“ASU 2018-17”). This ASU reduces the cost and complexity of financial reporting associated with consolidation of variable interest entities (VIEs). A VIE is an organization in which consolidation is not based on a majority of voting rights. The new guidance supersedes the private company alternative for common control leasing arrangements issued in 2014 and expands it to all qualifying common control arrangements. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 , and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, The FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement , or ASU 2018-13. The amendments in ASU 2018-13 eliminate, add, and modify certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The amendments are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019 , with early adoption permitted for either the entire ASU or only the provisions that eliminate or modify requirements. The amendments with respect to changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted-average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty are to be applied prospectively. All other amendments are to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the SEC adopted amendments to certain disclosure requirements in Securities Act Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification. These amendments eliminate, modify, or integrate into other SEC requirements certain disclosure rules. Among the amendments is the requirement to present an analysis of changes in stockholders’ equity in the interim financial statements included in quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. The analysis, which can be presented as a footnote or separate statement, is required for the current and comparative quarter and year-to-date interim periods. The amendments are effective for all filings made on or after November 5, 2018 . In light of the anticipated timing of effectiveness of the amendments and expected proximity of effectiveness to the filing date for most filers’ quarterly reports, the SEC’s Division of Corporate Finance issued a Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation related to Exchange Act Forms, (“CDI – Question 105.09”), that provides transition guidance related to this disclosure requirement. CDI – Question 105.09 states that the SEC would not object if the filer’s first presentation of the changes in shareholders’ equity is included in its Form 10-Q for the quarter that begins after the effective date of the amendments. As such, the Company adopted these SEC amendments on November 30, 2018 and will present the analysis of changes in stockholders’ equity in its interim financial statements in its May 31, 2019 Form 10-Q. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of these SEC amendments will have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Intangible-Goodwill and Other Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) (“ASU 2018-15”). ASU 2018-15 updates guidance regarding accounting for implementation costs associated with a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract. The amendments under ASU 2018-15 are effective for interim and annual fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2019 , with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued accounting standards update ASU 2018-13, (Topic 820) - “Fair Value Measurement”, which changes the unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019 . Early adoption is permitted upon issuance. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2018, FASB issued accounting standards update ASU 2018-07, (Topic 505) – “Shared-Based Payment Arrangements with Nonemployees”, which simplifies the accounting for share-based payments granted to nonemployees for goods and services. Under the ASU, most of the guidance on such payments to nonemployees will be aligned with the requirements for share-based payments granted to employees. Under the ASU 2018-07, the measurement of equity-classified nonemployee share-based payments will be fixed on the grant date, as defined in ASC 718, and will use the term nonemployee vesting period, rather than requisite service period. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 , and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted if financial statements have not yet been issued. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of ASU 2018-07, which has no effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 significantly changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. ASU 2016-13 will require immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over the remaining life of many financial assets, which will generally result in earlier recognition of allowances for credit losses on loans and other financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning March 1, 2020 and subsequent interim periods . The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. All other newly issued accounting pronouncements, but not yet effective, have been deemed either immaterial or not applicable.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-01, Leases (Topic 842) Codification Improvements, which removed the requirement for an entity to disclose in the interim periods after adoption, the effect of the change on income from continuing operations, net income, any other affected financial statement line item, and any affected per share amount. For lessors, the new leasing standard requires leases to be classified as a sales-type, direct financing or operating leases. These criteria focus on the transfer of control of the underlying lease asset. This standard and related updates were effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 , and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 effective January 1, 2019; such adoption had no material impact on the Company’s financial statements, given that the noncancelable term of the Company’s current lease is less than 12 months.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07 “Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting” (“ASU 2018-07”). ASU 2018-07 aligns the accounting for share-based payment awards to employees and non-employees. Under ASU 2018-07 the existing employee guidance will apply to nonemployee share-based transactions, except for specific guidance related to the attribution of compensation cost. ASU 2018-07 should be applied to all new awards granted after the date of adoption. ASU 2018-07 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018 , and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2018-07 effective January 1, 2019; such adoption had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-02, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) (ASU 2018-02), which amends existing standards for income statement-reporting comprehensive income to allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and improve the usefulness of information reported to financial statements users. ASU 2018-02 will be effective for beginning after December 15, 2018 , and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2018-02 effective January 1, 2019; such adoption had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”), to address diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. For public entities, the standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 , and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company adopted ASU 2016-15 effective January 1, 2018; such adoption had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet by lessees for those leases currently classified as operating leases under ASC 840 “Leases.” These amendments also require qualitative disclosures along with specific quantitative disclosures. These amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 , including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. The Company can elect to record a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the beginning of the year of adoption or apply a modified retrospective transition approach. The Company expects that substantially all of its operating lease commitments will be subject to the new guidance and will be recognized as operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets upon adoption. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 effective January 1, 2019; such adoption had no material impact on the Company’s financial statements, given that the noncancelable term of the Company’s current lease is less than 12 months.

Convertible Debt, Beneficial Conversion Feature, and Common Stock Warrant

The Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “SPA”) with Peak One Opportunity Fund, L.P. (“Peak One”) on August 13, 2018. The financing arrangement between the Company and Peak One stipulates that Peak One will invest up to $540,000 in the Company through three separate tranches. Each tranche will be funded in exchange for a convertible debt instrument issued at a 10% discount, with a face value of $200,000. On this same date, the first tranche closed and the Company issued a convertible debt instrument to Peak One for $200,000 at a 10% discount. The convertible debt issued has the following significant terms:

•

Term: The principal amount is repayable on August 13, 2021 ("Maturity Date"). All unpaid principal due and payable on the Maturity Date shall be paid in the form of common stock of the Company. Any amount of principal or interest that is due under the convertible debt, which is not paid by the Maturity Date, will bear interest at the rate of 18% per annum until it is satisfied.

•

Conversion Rights: The Holder has the right to convert the amount outstanding plus any accrued interest into common stock of the Company after 180 calendar days from the issuance date.

•

Conversion Price: Conversion price is equal to the lesser of (i) $2.75 or (ii) 70% of the lowest traded price of the common stock of the Company for the 20 trading days immediately preceding the date of the date of conversion of the Debts.

•

Redemption by Issuer: The Company has the option to redeem the convertible debt prior to the Maturity Date. The convertible debt called for redemption shall be redeemable by the Company, upon not more than 2 days written notice, for an amount (the "Redemption Price") equal to:

(i)

if the date of redemption is 90 days or less from the issuance date, 110% of the sum of the principal amount so redeemed plus accrued interest, if any;

(ii)

if the date of redemption is greater than or equal to 91 days from the issuance date and less than or equal to 120 days from the issuance date, 120% of the sum of the amount so redeemed plus accrued interest, if any;

(iii)

if the date of redemption is greater than or equal to 121 days from the issuance date and less than or equal to 180 days from the issuance date, 130% of the sum of the amount so redeemed plus accrued interest, if any; and

(iv)

if either (1) the convertible debts are in default but the Holder consents to the redemption notwithstanding such default or (2) the date of redemption is greater than or equal to 181 days from the issuance date, 140% of the sum of the amount so redeemed plus accrued interest, if any.

•

Ratchet Provision: If, at any time while any portion of the convertible debts remains outstanding, the Company effectuates a stock split or reverse stock split of its common stock or issues a dividend on its common stock consisting of shares of common stock or otherwise recapitalizes its common stock, the conversion price of the convertible debts shall be equitably adjusted to reflect such action.

•

Default: In the event of default by the Company on these convertible debts, the Holder will have the option and discretion to accelerate the full indebtedness under the convertible debts, in an amount equal to 140% of the outstanding principal amount and accrued and unpaid interest.

The embedded conversion feature was determined to be a derivative that does not require bifurcation pursuant to ASC 815, but was determined to be a beneficial conversion feature that requires recognition within equity on the commitment date. The beneficial conversion feature is recognized at its intrinsic value on the commitment date, limited to the proceeds allocated to the convertible debt. As such, the Company recorded $89,788 within additional paid-in-capital on the consolidated balance sheet for the beneficial conversion feature identified. The debt discount arising from recognition of the beneficial conversion feature will be amortized as interest expense over the term of the convertible debt. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, amortization expense of debt discount related to the beneficial conversion feature was not significant.

In connection with the convertible debt issuance, the Company also issued a detachable common stock warrant on August 13, 2018 that allows Peak One to purchase up to 50,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.75 per share, subject to adjustments as stated in the warrant agreement. The common stock warrant expires 5 years from the issuance date. The common stock warrant was determined to meet equity classification pursuant to ASC 480 and ASC 815. As such, the fair value of the common stock warrant is recorded as additional paid-in-capital on the consolidated balance sheet, which was determined to be $89,788, net of issuance costs allocated to the warrant, on the issuance date. The debt discount arising from recognition of the common stock warrant will be amortized as interest expense over the term of the convertible debt. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, amortization expense of debt discount related to the common stock warrant was not significant.

The Company has the following convertible debt instruments outstanding as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

	March 31, 2019		December 31, 2018

A $200,000 convertible note, issued at 10% discount, five year term, no monthly interest due, maturing August 13, 2021	$	-	$	200,000

Long-term convertible debt	$	-	$	200,000
Less: debt discount		-		(175,000	)
Long-term convertible debt, net of debt discount	$	-	$	25,000

On February 19, 2019, the Company redeemed all the outstanding convertible debt at a 30% premium for a total redemption price of $255,000. The redemption was accounted for as an extinguishment of debt. Accordingly, the beneficial conversion feature recognized in conjunction with the convertible debt was de-recognized. The Company recorded approximately $160,419 of loss on extinguishment of convertible debt, which reported in the consolidated statement of income.

Investments

Equity Method

The Company applies the equity method for investments in affiliate, which a privately-held company where quoted market prices are not available, in which it has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies of the affiliate. Significant influence is generally defined as 20% to 50% ownership in the voting stock of an investee. Under the equity method, the Company initially records the investment at cost and then adjusts the carrying value of the investment to recognize the proportional share of the equity-accounted affiliate’s net income (loss) including changes in capital of the affiliate.

Equity Purchase Agreement – Put Option

On August 13, 2018 (the "Closing Date"), the Company entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with the convertible debenture holder (the “Holder”), whereby, upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, the Holder is committed to purchase shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Purchase Shares"), at an aggregate price of up to $10,000,000 (the "Total Commitment Amount") over the course of a 24- month term. The significant terms of the Purchase Agreement are given below:

•

Put Provision: From time to time over the 24-month term of the Purchase Agreement, commencing on the date on which a registration statement registering the Purchase Shares (the "Registration Statement") becomes effective, the Company may, in its sole discretion, provide the Buyer with a put notice (each a "Put Notice") to purchase a specified number of the Purchase Shares (each a "Put Amount Requested") subject to the limitations contained in the Purchase Agreement.

The actual amount of proceeds the Company receives pursuant to each Put Notice (each, the "Put Amount") is to be determined by the lesser of (i) 88% of the lowest closing bid price of the Company's Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the respective date of the Put Notice and (ii) 88% of the lowest closing bid price during the Valuation Period (the period of 7 trading days immediately following the clearing date associated with the applicable Put Notice).

The Put Amount Requested pursuant to any single Put Notice must have an aggregate value of at least $20,000, and cannot exceed the lesser of (i) 250% of the average daily trading value of the common stock in the 10 trading days immediately preceding the Put Notice or (ii) such number of shares of common stock that has an aggregate value of $500,000.

•

Term: Unless earlier terminated, the Purchase Agreement will terminate automatically on the earlier to occur of: (i) 24 months after the initial effectiveness of the Registration Statement, (ii) the date on which the Buyer has purchased or acquired all of the Purchase Shares, or (iii) the date on which certain bankruptcy proceedings are initiated with respect to the Company.

Upon execution of the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued 100,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 to the Holder.

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 480 and Topic 815, to determine the proper classification of the Purchase Agreement. The Company determined the put option meets the definition of a derivative under ASC 815 but is outside the scope of ASC 480. Under ASC 816-40, the Company determined the derivate does not meet equity classification and accordingly, is classified as an asset on the consolidated balance as a Level 3 financial instrument. The Company used an independent third-party valuation firm to determine the fair value of the derivative asset using an Option Pricing Model.

Business Overview

Organization and Corporate History

I-ON Digital Corp. (formerly known as I-ON Communications Corp.) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on June 18, 2013 as ALPINE 3 Inc. Alpine 3 Inc. was set up to serve as a vehicle to effect an asset acquisition, merger, exchange of capital stock or other business combination with a domestic or foreign business. ALPINE 3 did not undertake any effort to cause a market to develop in its securities, either debt or equity, before it successfully concluded a business combination. On April 4, 2014, The Michael J. Rapport Trust (the “Trust”) purchased 10,000,000 shares of common stock which was all of the outstanding shares of Alpine 3, Inc., and subsequently changed the name to Evans Brewing Company Inc. (“EBC”) on May 29, 2014. On October 9, 2014 the Trust agreed to the cancellation of 9,600,000 of the shares of common stock that it had acquired and retained 400,000 shares of common stock.

On October 15, 2014, Bayhawk and EBC entered into an Asset Purchase and Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”), subject to receiving approval of the independent Bayhawk shareholders who voted on the transaction. On September 17, 2015, the independent Bayhawk shareholders approved the agreement and Bayhawk sold to EBC and EBC purchased from Bayhawk assets of Bayhawk, including but not limited to the assets relating to the Bayhawk Ales label and the Evans Brands (collectively, the “Transferred Assets”). Bayhawk retained ownership of 100% of the stock in Evans Brewing Co. (CA) (“Evans Brewing California”) which has the brewers license at City Brewery in Lacrosse, WI. Based on the affirmative vote by the independent Bayhawk shareholders to approve the Asset Purchase transaction, EBC proceeded with the share exchange and tender offer to the Bayhawk shareholders, pursuant to which EBC offered to exchange shares of EBC common stock for shares of Bayhawk common stock, on a one-for-one basis (the “Exchange Offer”). At the close of the share exchange on December 2, 2015, 4,033,863 Bayhawk shares were accepted and exchanged for 4,033,863 shares of EBC common stock.

On January 25, 2018, Evans Brewing Company, Inc. consummated an Agreement of Merger and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”), with I-ON Communications Co., Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the Republic of Korea (South Korea) (“I-ON”) and I-ON Acquisition Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Acquisition”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Acquisition merged with and into I-ON in a statutory reverse triangular merger (the “Merger”) with I-ON surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant. As consideration for the Merger, the Registrant agreed to issue the shareholders of I-ON (the “I-ON Holders”) an aggregate of 26,000,000 shares of our Common Stock, in accordance with their pro rata ownership of I-ON capital stock. Following the Merger, the Registrant adopted the business plan of I-ON in information technology consultancy and software development. On December 14, 2017, in connection with the Merger, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) to change its name to I-ON Communications Corp.

At the effective time of the Merger, our board of directors and officers were reconstituted by the appointment of Jae Cheol James Oh as Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and Chief Financial Officer, Hong Rae Kim as Executive Director and Jae Ho Cho as Director. Michael Rapport resigned as President, Chief Executive Officer, and Chairman in connection with the Transaction and Evan Rapport resigned as Vice President and Director, Kenneth Wiedrich resigned as Chief Financial Officer and Director and Kyle Leingang resigned as Secretary. Roy Robertson, Mark Lamb, Joe Ryan, and Kevin Hammons resigned as members of the Board of Directors and their respective committees.

On March 21, 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to change the name of the Company to I-ON Digital Corp.

I-ON Digital

Following the Merger, as described more fully herein, the Company adopted the business plan of I-ON. I-ON was founded by Jae Cheol James Oh, who currently serves as CEO. The Company’s roots are in IT consultancy and software development. I-ON services South Korea’s enterprise content management system’s (CMS) market and specializes in advancing market-leading internet software applications to capitalize on rapidly growing market sectors.

After being awarded its first of numerous international patents in 2003, I-ON has since evolved into an industry-leading and recognized software developer and provider of on-premise and cloud-based enterprise-class unstructured data management, digital experience and digital marketing software and solutions. I-ON’s portfolio of software and solutions serves the digital marketing and technology needs of organizations, enabling clients to create, measure, and optimizes digital experiences for their audiences across marketing channels and devices. We believe these solutions help clients reduce the cost of content management and delivery, while increasing the return on their investments in digital communication and marketing spend. As of its founding, the Company has serviced and continues to service over 1,000 blue-chip and middle-market clients across virtually all verticals in both private and public sectors. The Company has meaningfully expanded its reach over the past decade and now currently markets, licenses and sells its products and services directly to clients in South Korea and Japan, as well as in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, and the U.S. through value-added resellers and partnerships.

I-ON currently holds 6 international and over 20 domestic patents for both products and methodologies built into the 10 product offerings the Company currently has at market. These encompass enterprise CMS, digital experience and service delivery software, digital marketing, smart mobility and analytics tools, and, more recently, energy management solutions as well as sports software and IT convergence services. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company started endorsing its 7th generation cloud based Digital Experience (DXP) platform as a service offering known as ICE, which encompasses a more feature-rich front and back end CMS. The Company has designed and developed industry-leading technologies that are compliant with global standards including GS (Good Software) and NET (New Excellent Technology). I-ON also holds numerous domestic and global industry awards, earning high rankings and recognition from the likes of Gartner (Magic Quadrant 2014) and Red Herring (2014 Asia Top 100 Winner), among many others.

In addition to South Korea, Japan has particularly helped fuel I-ON’s growth over the past 10 years owing to the success of an exclusive licensing deal with Ashisuto, a large Japan-based technology services firm that employs approximately 800 technical, engineering and marketing staff across 9 office locations. Ashisuto, which has provided technology services to Japan’s enterprises and government entities since 1973, currently white labels and sells I-ON’s core CMS offering ICS6 to over 600 clients as NOREN 6.

Table of Contents

As a result of global enterprise digital marketing trends and I-ON’s nearly 20 -year track record in South Korea, Japan and now, Southeast Asia, the Company’s objective is to continue to gain market share in these markets. I-ON will continue to closely engage and consult with existing and prospective clients as their subject matter expert and digital strategist of choice across multiple touchpoints in the digital marketing and technology ecosystem, helping Chief Marketing Officers (CMO) and Chief Information Officers (CIO) drive critical change and growth for their organizations.

I-ON has invested and continues to spend substantial revenue on research and development. The Company has over 100 employees as of December 31, 2018, approximately 90% of whom are considered full-time. Research and development typically comprises of approximately 80 junior, mid to senior level engineers and developers, most of whom are based at the Company’ headquarters located at 15 Teheran-ro 10-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea, 06234.

The Company plans to exit this project going forward.

Foreign currency translation loss was $95,839 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to income of $136,150.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are affected by the accounting policies used and the estimates and assumptions made by management during their preparation. A complete summary of these policies is included in Note 2 of the notes to our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. We have identified below the accounting policies that are of particular importance in the presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows, and which require the application of significant judgment by our management. Management has carefully considered the recently issued accounting pronouncements that altered generally accepted accounting principles and does not believe that any other new or modified principles will have a material impact on the Company’s reported financial position or operations in the near term.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by 17 C.F.R. 229 (10)(f)(i) and are not required to provide information under this item.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) designed to provide reasonable assurance the information required to be reported in our Exchange Act filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified and pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and forms, including controls and procedures designed to ensure that this information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive and Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive and Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information we are required to disclose in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting. Under the supervision of our Chief Executive and Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2018 using the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2018, we determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective as of such date to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time provided in the SEC rules and forms.

Management is currently evaluating remediation plans for the above control deficiencies.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. However, as a result of the Company’s recent change of control, we have added several additional employees in accounting which we hope will improve the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.

Legal Proceedings

The Company is pending litigation against Financial News Corporation (the “Defendant”), a Korea-based financial newspaper company. The Company and the defendant originally agreed upon an arrangement on February 2014 for the Company to provide services and receive payments upon completion of each stage of the contract. Per management, the defendant arbitrarily requested changes in terms of the agreement and delayed payments. The Company, as a plaintiff, is claiming damages. The management does not believe the case will have material adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2018.

None of our directors, officers, affiliates, any owner of record or beneficially of more than 5% of our voting securities, or any associate of any such director, officer, affiliate or security holder are (i) a party adverse to us in any legal proceedings, or (ii) have a material interest adverse to us in any legal proceedings. We are not aware of any other legal proceedings that have been threatened against us.
