JAMES MARITIME HOLDINGS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 AND 2022

 

1. Nature and Continuance of Operations

 

Business Operations Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of James Maritime Holdings Inc. (“James Maritime”) and its majority-owned subsidiary, Gladiator Solutions Inc. (“Gladiator”), and its wholly owned subsidiary United Security Specialists Inc. (“USS”) (collectively as the “Company”). James Maritime Holdings, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on January 23, 2015.

 

Substantially all of the Company’s business is conducted through its subsidiaries, Gladiator and USS. Gladiator produces revenues through the distribution of personal protective products, primarily through mail-in orders to customers or via e-commerce sales generated through their website. USS provides professional security personnel enhanced by smartphone-based security applications.

 

Share Exchange Agreement – United Security Specialists, Inc.

 

On September 23, 2022, James Maritime Holdings completed a share exchange agreement with USS.

 

As a result of the exchange, James Maritime became the sole shareholder of USS, holding 100% of all shares outstanding. See Note 3 for further information.

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The Company has adopted a December 31 fiscal year-end for financial statement reporting purposes.

 

All operations activity related to James Maritimes’ subsidiary, Gladiator, all operations are included within condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

All operations activity related to James Maritimes’ subsidiary, USS, for the quarterly periods of 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2022, will only reflect activity from September 23, 2022 through December 31, 2022, the period for which USS was acquired and owned by James Maritime. All operations are included within consolidated statement of operations.

 

All intercompany balances were eliminated in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Non-controlling interests are classified in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as a component of equity. The amounts of consolidated net income (loss) attributable to both the Company and the non-controlling interests are separately presented in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.

JAMES MARITIME HOLDINGS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 AND 2022

 

Going concern

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2023, are prepared using U.S. GAAP, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern. This contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company has yet to establish an ongoing source of revenue to finance its operating expenses and to continue as a going concern.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company generated a net loss of $2,633,986. The accumulated deficit as of September 30, 2023 is $13,930,964 ($11,454,076 as of December 31, 2022). In order to continue as a going concern, the Company plans to receive funds through the selling of equity securities to existing and new shareholders. The Company is also evaluating potential acquisitions in the corporate security space. Additionally, the Company has created and maintained good customer relationships during 2023 for both USS and Gladiator, which the Company is relying on to potentially generate sustainable sales throughout 2024 and afterward. While management maintains they will be able to continue to generate sufficient cash flows through a combination of operations, debt, and equity raises, there is no guarantee the Company will be able to raise or generate additional funds in the short term to meet present obligations as they come due. Due to these factors, there is substantial doubt the Company may be able to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reporting amounts of assets and liabilities.

 

Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for inventories, impairment of long-term assets and derivatives.

 

It is reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation, or set of circumstances that existing at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results of could differ significantly from those estimates.

 

Business Combinations

 

The Company accounts for all business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. Under this method, assets and liabilities, including any remaining non-controlling interests, are recognized at fair value at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed, and non- controlling interests is recognized as goodwill. Certain adjustments to the assessed fair values of assets and liabilities, or non-controlling interests made subsequent to the acquisition date, but within the measurement period, which is up to one year, are recorded as adjustments to goodwill. Any adjustments subsequent to the measurement period are recorded in income. Results of operations of the acquired entity are included in the Company’s results from the date of the acquisition onward and include amortization expense arising from acquired tangible and intangible assets.

 

Cash

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three and nine months or less at the date of purchase to be cash and cash equivalents.

JAMES MARITIME HOLDINGS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 AND 2022

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company maintains its cash accounts with financial institutions, where, at times, deposits exceed federal insurance limits of $250,000. The Company believes that no significant concentration of credit risk exists with respect to these cash balances due to its assessment of the credit worthiness and financial viability of the financial institutions.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories consist primarily of finished goods. Costs of finished goods inventories include all costs incurred to bring inventory to its current condition, which includes standard cost paid to suppliers, shipping costs, and other costs. The Company values its inventory using specific identification method of each inventory item. If the Company determines that the estimated net realizable value of its inventory is less than the carrying value of such inventory, it records a charge to cost of goods sold to reflect the lower of cost or net realizable value. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by the Company, further adjustments may be required that would increase the cost of goods sold in the period in which such a determination was made.  As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had no inventory on hand.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivables are generally recorded at the invoiced amounts, net of an allowance for expected losses. The Company evaluates the collectability of its trade accounts receivable based on a number of factors. In circumstances where the Company becomes aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations to the Company, a specific reserve for bad debts is estimated and recorded, which reduces the recognized receivable to the estimated amount the Company believes will ultimately be collected. In addition to specific customer identification of bad debts, bad debt charges are recorded based on the Company’s historical losses and an overall assessment of past due trade accounts receivable outstanding. The allowance for accounts receivable is established through a provision reducing the carrying value of receivables. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company determined that no allowance was necessary.

 

Leases

 

The Company accounts for a contract as a lease when it has the right to direct the use of the asset for a period of time while obtaining substantially all of the asset’s economic benefits. The Company determines the initial classification and measurement of its right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities at the lease commencement date and thereafter if modified. ROU assets and liabilities are represented on the balance sheet at the present value of future minimum lease payments to be made over the lease term. Leases that are insignificant or with a 12-month term or less at inception are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheet and are expensed as incurred in the consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2022, the Company leased real estate and office space (the “Saratoga Lease”) under non-cancelable operating lease agreements that qualified for ROU accounting treatment.  As of March 31, 2023, the Company was in default for the Saratoga Lease and, subsequent to March 31, 2023, terminated the lease with the landlord in a settlement agreement.   Commencing on February 1, 2023, the Company leased a second real estate and office space (the “Suite 200 Lease”) under non-cancelable operating lease agreement that qualified for ROU accounting treatment.

 

Property and equipment

 

The Company records depreciation when appropriate using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets. Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The estimated useful lives of the Company’s property and equipment by class are as follows:

 

Asset classes

 

Useful lives (in years)

Vehicles

 

5

Furniture and fixtures

 

7

 

Management regularly reviews property, equipment, and other long-lived assets for possible impairment. This review occurs annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Based on management’s assessment, there were no indicators of impairment of the Company’s property and equipment as of September 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

JAMES MARITIME HOLDINGS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 AND 2022

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets are recorded at their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition and are allocated to the reporting units that are expected to receive the related benefits. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and year ended December 31, 2022, the Company determined that all intangibles related to the acquisition of USS were fully recognizable at their net book values and therefore no impairment was deemed necessary.

 

On December 13, 2021, the Company executed a share exchange agreement that resulted in the recognition of intangible assets (see Note 3 – Gladiator Share Exchange Agreement). At the time of the share exchange agreement, Management had determined that the intangible assets extrapolated from the share exchange agreement will be amortized over a useful life of 3 years.  Concurrent with the cessation of operations of Gladiator, the Company determined that all intangibles related to the acquisition of Gladiator were impaired.  As such, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded an Impairment Loss of $911,000, the full value of the unamortized Intangibles.

 

On September 23, 2022, the Company executed a share exchange agreement that resulted in the recognition of intangible assets (see Note 4 – USS Share Exchange Agreement). Management has determined that the intangible assets extrapolated from the share exchange agreement will be amortized over the useful life of 3 years.

 

Convertible Debt and Derivative Liabilities

 

The convertible debt is convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion rate of 10% of the lowest trading price during the previous five trading days. The terms of the embedded conversion feature require embedded derivative instrument treatment and classification as a separate liability. The conversion feature and certain other features are considered embedded derivative instruments, such as a conversion reset provision, a penalty provision and redemption option, which are to be recorded at their fair value as its fair value can be separated from the convertible note and its conversion is independent of the underlying note. The Company records the resulting discount on debt related to the conversion features at initial transaction and amortizes the discount using the effective interest rate method over the life of the debt instruments. The conversion liability is then marked to market each reporting period with the resulting gains or losses shown in the consolidated statement of operations.

 

Revenue recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies its performance obligations by transferring control of promised products or services to its customers, which occurs either at a point in time or over time, depending on when the customer obtains the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the products or services.

 

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following five steps:

 

(1) Identify the contract with the customer,

(2) identify the performance obligations in the contract,

(3) determine the transaction price,

(4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

(5) recognize revenue when, or as, the performance obligations are satisfied.

 

Net revenues from Gladiator primarily consist of sales of personal protective products, including armor, plates, helmets, shields, and accessories shipped directly to customers. All revenue transactions for Gladiator comprise a single performance obligation, which consists of the sale of products to customers either through wholesale, intermediary, or direct-to-consumer channels. The company satisfies the performance obligation and records revenues when transfer of control has passed to the customer, based on the terms of sale. In all of the Companies revenue channels, transfer of control takes place at the point of sale upon shipment to customer.

 

Net revenues from USS primarily consist of security services provided to large residential, industrial, construction and government clients. Contracts with customers contain no incentives or discounts that could cause revenue to be allocated or adjusted over time. The Company does offer discounts, but historically the discounts have been insignificant. The Company satisfies the performance obligation for the agreed-upon period of time and location and records revenues after completion. There are no services that would be considered fulfilled over an extended period of time and necessitate different accounting treatment.

 

Advertising Costs

 

Advertising costs are charged to selling, general, and administrative expenses. Advertising production costs are expensed the first time an advertisement related to such production costs is run. Media (television, print and radio) placement costs are expensed in the month during which the advertisement appears. Advertising expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, were $nil and $60,332, respectively, and $nil, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 AND 2022

 

Earnings per Share

 

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders for the period by the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution from common shares issuable through stock options, restricted stock units and other equity awards. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company generated net losses, therefore applying applicable equity instruments for diluted earnings per share would have had an anti-dilutive effect. Please see Note 14 for the computation of earnings per common share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts shown for the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and notes and loans approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of those instruments.

 

The Company groups its recurring, non-recurring and disclosure-only fair value measurements into the following levels when making fair value measurement disclosures:

 

Level 1 Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

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

Level 3 Inputs are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or value drivers are unobservable.

 

Fair value is 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 (an exit price). The Company and its subsidiaries use, as appropriate, a market approach (generally, data from market transactions), an income approach (generally, present value techniques and option-pricing models), and / or a cost approach (generally, replacement cost) to measure the fair value of an asset or liability. These valuation approaches incorporate inputs such as observable, independent market data and/or unobservable data that management believes are predicated on the assumptions market participants would use to price an asset or liability. These inputs may incorporate, as applicable, certain risks such as nonperformance risk, which includes credit risk.

 

The Company received a fair value assessment from a third-party prior to the business combination with Gladiator. See Note 3 for further details and assumptions used in the calculation.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities at tax rates expected to be in effect when such assets or liabilities are realized or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date of a change in tax rates. Deferred income tax assets are reduced by valuation allowances when necessary. On September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had no material unrecognized tax benefits and no adjustments to liabilities or operations were required. The 2019 through 2022 tax years remain subject to examination by federal and most state tax authorities.

 

Commitments and Contingencies

 

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings. The Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings, or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

 

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is possible but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed. Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.

 

Non-controlling Interests

Non-controlling interests are classified in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as a component of equity. The amounts of consolidated net income (loss) attributable to both the Company and the non-controlling interests are separately presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

3. Share Exchange Agreement with Gladiator Solutions, Inc.

 

On December 13, 2021 (the “Gladiator Closing date”), Gladiator (the “Gladiator Seller”) entered into a share exchange agreement with the Company, in which all the outstanding shares of Gladiator, 750,000 common shares, no par value, were exchanged for 1,000,000 shares, $0.001 par value of James Maritime’s common stock.

 

On the Closing date, one of the seller’s shareholders dissented from participating in the acquisition, which immediately resulted in a noncontrolling interest after the completion of the share purchase agreement. The noncontrolling interest is equivalent to the shareholder’s proportionate holdings of 100,000 Gladiator shares, or 13.3%. The remaining shareholders with an equity stake of 86.7% exchanged their total aggregate shares of 650,000 for 866,667 of James Maritime’s common stock shares.

 

The Company also included contingent considerations if Gladiator meets or exceeds certain earnings before interest, taxes, amortization (“EBITDA”) thresholds, (the “Gladiator Milestones”):

 

 

-

$3,000,000 and 25% during any consecutive twelve-month period commencing on the Gladiator closing date and ending December 31, 2024 (the “Measurement period”), the Company shall issue one (1) additional share for each two (2) shares of James Maritime stock received by such shareholder;

 

-

$5,000,000 and 25% during the measurement period, one (1) additional share of James Maritime stock for each one (1) share of James Maritime stock received by such shareholder at the closing;

 

-

$10,000,000 during the measurement period, one (1) additional share of James Maritime stock for each one (1) share of James Maritime stock received by such shareholder at the closing;

 

-

Conversely, in the event Gladiator’s revenues and EBITDA percentage does not equal or exceed $2,000,000 and 25%, respectively, during any consecutive twelve-month period commencing on the closing date and ending on the 24-month anniversary of the Closing date, the seller’s shareholders shall return to the Company an aggregate of 500,000 shares of James Maritime common stock.

 

The Company utilized a third-party valuation specialist to calculate the intangible assets and estimate the purchase price of the agreement. The valuation utilized a share purchase price of $0.50, which constitutes a Level 2 fair value measurement.

(1)

Intangibles were determined to consist of two separately identifiable intangible assets to be amortized over their useful lives of 3 years (the average time the company has maintained customer relationships). 50% of the value or $700,206 was attributed to Supplier Relationships and 50% of the value or $700,206 was attributed to Customer Relationships.

 

(2)

The purchase price was calculated by taking the recapitalization of James Maritime Holdings shares of 866,667 (previously 650,000 Gladiator shares) at $0.50 per share, resulting in a total purchase price of $433,334.

If the share exchange agreement had occurred on January 1, 2021, the pro forma consolidated revenues at December 31, 2021 would have amounted to approximately $308,051 and the consolidated operating loss would have amounted to approximately $1,000,940.

 

4. Share Exchange Agreement with United Securities Specialists, Inc. (USS)

 

On September 23, 2022 (the “USS Closing date”), USS entered into a share exchange agreement with the Company, in which all the outstanding shares, 100 common shares, no par value, were exchanged for 1,000,000 shares, $0.001 par value of James Maritime common stock.

 

The Company also included contingent considerations if USS meets or exceeds certain earnings before interest, taxes, amortization (“EBITDA”) thresholds:

 

 

a.

$20,000,000 and 15% during any consecutive (12) month period commencing on the Closing date and ending on December 31, 2025 (“the Measurement Period”), the Company shall issue an aggregate 500,000 shares of James Maritime stock

 

b.

$30,000,000 and 15% during the measurement period, the Company shall issue an aggregate 500,000 shares of James Maritime stock

 

c.

There were no transactions during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements and information relating to us that are based on the beliefs of our management as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, our management. When used in this report, the words “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “will,” “estimate,” “intend”, “plan” and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the plans, objectives, expectations and prospects reflected in or suggested by our forward-looking statements are reasonable, those statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, and we can give no assurance that our plans, objectives, expectations and prospects will be achieved. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this report. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or our predictions. The terms “JMTM,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company” refer to James Maritime Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation. 

 

Business Overview

 

James Maritime Holdings, Inc. operates mainly through its subsidiaries, Gladiator and USS. Gladiator specializes in the distribution of personal protective products, largely through mail-in orders and e-commerce channels. On the other hand, USS offers a combination of professional security personnel services, enhanced by smartphone-based security applications, providing a unique blend of traditional and modern security solutions. The consolidated financial statements were prepared according to U.S. GAAP and SEC regulations. The Company has adopted a December 31 fiscal year-end for financial statement reporting.

 

The financial statements were prepared with estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. These estimates were used for inventories, impairment of long-term assets, and derivatives. The actual results could differ significantly from these estimates.  Business combinations were accounted for using the acquisition method. Assets, liabilities, and any remaining non-controlling interests were recognized at fair value on the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed, and non-controlling interests, was recognized as goodwill.  The company considers investments with an original maturity of three and nine months or less at the purchase date as cash and cash equivalents.

 

Recent Developments

 

During the past two fiscal years, the company underwent significant corporate changes. 

 

Share Exchange Agreements and Stock Conversions 

 

James Maritime solidified its position in the market by becoming the majority shareholder of Gladiator Solutions Inc., holding approximately 86.7% of all shares outstanding as of December 13, 2021. The acquisition of Gladiator Solutions, Inc. resulted in the issuance of 866,667 shares and brought the total common stock balance to 7,354,129 by the end of 2021.  Furthermore, on September 23, 2022, the company fortified its portfolio by completing a share exchange agreement with USS, resulting in James Maritime securing 100% of all USS shares.  The acquisition of USS resulted in the issuance of 1,000,000 shares by the end of 2022, and the common stock balance reached 9,004,129.  Additional paid-in capital also saw a significant increase to $13,656,447, reflecting the stock issuances and compensations during the year.

 

There were multiple issuances of common stock for diverse purposes, ranging from shareholder-related issuances to share-based compensations and acquisitions.  In 2021, our preferred stock decreased from 2,000,000 to 400,000 shares.  This decrease was primarily due to the conversion of preferred stock to common stock. Specifically, 1,600,000 shares of preferred stock were converted, leading to the issuance of 750,000 shares of common stock.  Total shareholders' equity, which includes both equity attributable to the company and non-controlling interest, increased from $419,248 at the end of 2021 to $2,182,693 by the end of 2022.

 

Results of Operations

 

Three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022

 

We had net sales of $2,382,896 for the three months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to $4,017,770 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, a decrease of $1,634,874 or 41%. This decrease in revenue was due to a reduction in the operating activities of Gladiator between the two periods.

 

Cost of Goods Sold

 

Cost of Goods Sold for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was $1,043,945, as compared to $3,168,252 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, a decrease of $2,214,307 or 53%, due to decreased operating activity of Gladiator.

General and Administrative

 

Our general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were $1,176,414 a decrease of $1,319,384, or 53%, compared to $2,496,398 for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The change period over period was related to decreased operating activity of Gladiator.

 

Net income (loss)

 

As a result of the foregoing, for the three months ended September 30, 2023, we recorded a net loss of $268,374 compared to net income of $789,826 for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The change period over period was mainly related to other income during the three months ended September 30, 2022 for an employee retention credit received.

 

Nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022

 

We had net sales of $6,915,105 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to $4,017,770 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $2,897,335. This increase in revenue was due to recognizing a full nine months of activity during the 2023 period after the acquisitions of Gladiator and USS.

 

Cost of Goods Sold

 

Cost of Goods Sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $4,995,598, as compared to $3,168,252 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $1,827,346 due to recognizing a full nine months of activity during the 2023 period after the acquisitions of Gladiator and USS.

The change period over period was mainly related to other income during the three months ended September 30, 2022 for an employee retention credit received.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

At September 30, 2023, the Company had $21,756 cash. The Company has limited commercial experience and had a net loss of $2,633,986 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and an accumulated deficit of $13,930,964, and a working capital deficit of $2,526,844 at September 30, 2023. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenue sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.

 

We do not believe that we have enough cash on hand to operate our business during the next 12 months. The Company will require additional financing to fund its future planned operations, including research and development and commercialization of its products.  To date, the Company has financed its operation primarily from advances from its affiliates. 

 

We may seek to raise additional funding that we require in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock. However, we cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock to fund our operations. We currently do not have any agreements or arrangements in place for any future financing.

 

Operating Activities

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we used $501,267 of cash in operating activities primarily as a result of our net loss of $2,633,986, offset by net changes in working capital items of operating assets and liabilities of $2,132,720.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had $220,385 of cash provided by operating activities primarily as a result of our net income of $405,744, offset by net changes in working capital items of operating assets and liabilities of $185,359.

  

Investing Activities

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had $9,637 increase of cash in investing activities as a result of $21,437 in cash acquired from acquisitions which was offset by cash outflow of $11,800 for the acquisition of property and equipment. There was no cash flows from investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Financing Activities

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we had $67,569 increase of cash in financing activities as a result of $125,260 in net proceeds from loans and net repayments of $57,691 of notes payable.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, financing activities provided $336,594 in net proceeds from loans and $250,000 from the issuance of common shares. This was offset by the repayment of notes payable of $621,519.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Transactions

 

At September 30, 2023, the Company did not have any transactions, obligations or relationships that could be considered off-balance sheet arrangements.

   

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

 

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item 3.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures 

 

As of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, management performed, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).  Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed 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 forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on the evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

 

Due to resource constraints, material weaknesses are evident to management regarding our inability to generate all the necessary disclosure for inclusion in our filings with the Securities and Exchanges Commission, which is due to the lack of resources and segregation of duties. We lack sufficient personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training in GAAP to meet the demands for a public company, including the accounting skills and understanding necessary to fulfill the requirements of GAAP-based reporting. This weakness causes us to not fully identify and resolve accounting and disclosure issues that could lead to a failure to perform timely internal control and reviews. In addition, the Company has not established an audit committee, does not have any independent outside directors on the Company’s Board of Directors, and lacks documentation of its internal control processes.

 

Management’s Report  on  Internal  Control  Over  Financial  Reporting: Our management is responsible for  establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The key internal controls for the Company are provided by executive management’s review and approval of all transactions. Our internal control over financial reporting also includes those policies and procedures that:

 

(1) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

 

(2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management; and

 

(3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls and procedures over financial reporting as of September 30, 2023. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of these controls.

 

Based on this assessment, specifically that the Company lacks sufficient personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training in GAAP to meet the demands for a public company, including the accounting skills and understanding necessary to fulfill the requirements of GAAP-based reporting. This weakness causes us to not fully identify and resolve accounting and disclosure issues that could lead to a failure to perform timely internal control and reviews. In addition, the Company has not established an audit committee, does not have any independent outside directors on the Company’s Board of Directors, and lacks documentation of its internal control processes, management has concluded that as of September 30, 2023, our internal control over  financial  reporting was ineffective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. 

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Business Operations Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of James Maritime Holdings Inc. (“James Maritime”) and its majority-owned subsidiary, Gladiator Solutions Inc. (“Gladiator”), and its wholly owned subsidiary United Security Specialists Inc. (“USS”) (collectively as the “Company”). James Maritime Holdings, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on January 23, 2015.

 

Substantially all of the Company’s business is conducted through its subsidiaries, Gladiator and USS. Gladiator produces revenues through the distribution of personal protective products, primarily through mail-in orders to customers or via e-commerce sales generated through their website. USS provides professional security personnel enhanced by smartphone-based security applications.

 

Share Exchange Agreement – United Security Specialists, Inc.

 

On September 23, 2022, James Maritime Holdings completed a share exchange agreement with USS.

 

As a result of the exchange, James Maritime became the sole shareholder of USS, holding 100% of all shares outstanding. See Note 3 for further information.

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. The Company has adopted a December 31 fiscal year-end for financial statement reporting purposes.

 

All operations activity related to James Maritimes’ subsidiary, Gladiator, all operations are included within condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

All operations activity related to James Maritimes’ subsidiary, USS, for the quarterly periods of 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2022, will only reflect activity from September 23, 2022 through December 31, 2022, the period for which USS was acquired and owned by James Maritime. All operations are included within consolidated statement of operations.

 

All intercompany balances were eliminated in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Non-controlling interests are classified in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as a component of equity. The amounts of consolidated net income (loss) attributable to both the Company and the non-controlling interests are separately presented in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.

Going concern

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2023, are prepared using U.S. GAAP, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern. This contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company has yet to establish an ongoing source of revenue to finance its operating expenses and to continue as a going concern.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company generated a net loss of $2,633,986. The accumulated deficit as of September 30, 2023 is $13,930,964 ($11,454,076 as of December 31, 2022). In order to continue as a going concern, the Company plans to receive funds through the selling of equity securities to existing and new shareholders. The Company is also evaluating potential acquisitions in the corporate security space. Additionally, the Company has created and maintained good customer relationships during 2023 for both USS and Gladiator, which the Company is relying on to potentially generate sustainable sales throughout 2024 and afterward. While management maintains they will be able to continue to generate sufficient cash flows through a combination of operations, debt, and equity raises, there is no guarantee the Company will be able to raise or generate additional funds in the short term to meet present obligations as they come due. Due to these factors, there is substantial doubt the Company may be able to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reporting amounts of assets and liabilities.

 

Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for inventories, impairment of long-term assets and derivatives.

 

It is reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation, or set of circumstances that existing at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results of could differ significantly from those estimates.

 

Business Combinations

 

The Company accounts for all business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. Under this method, assets and liabilities, including any remaining non-controlling interests, are recognized at fair value at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed, and non- controlling interests is recognized as goodwill. Certain adjustments to the assessed fair values of assets and liabilities, or non-controlling interests made subsequent to the acquisition date, but within the measurement period, which is up to one year, are recorded as adjustments to goodwill. Any adjustments subsequent to the measurement period are recorded in income. Results of operations of the acquired entity are included in the Company’s results from the date of the acquisition onward and include amortization expense arising from acquired tangible and intangible assets.

 

Cash

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three and nine months or less at the date of purchase to be cash and cash equivalents.

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company maintains its cash accounts with financial institutions, where, at times, deposits exceed federal insurance limits of $250,000. The Company believes that no significant concentration of credit risk exists with respect to these cash balances due to its assessment of the credit worthiness and financial viability of the financial institutions.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories consist primarily of finished goods. Costs of finished goods inventories include all costs incurred to bring inventory to its current condition, which includes standard cost paid to suppliers, shipping costs, and other costs. The Company values its inventory using specific identification method of each inventory item. If the Company determines that the estimated net realizable value of its inventory is less than the carrying value of such inventory, it records a charge to cost of goods sold to reflect the lower of cost or net realizable value. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by the Company, further adjustments may be required that would increase the cost of goods sold in the period in which such a determination was made.  As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had no inventory on hand.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivables are generally recorded at the invoiced amounts, net of an allowance for expected losses. The Company evaluates the collectability of its trade accounts receivable based on a number of factors. In circumstances where the Company becomes aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations to the Company, a specific reserve for bad debts is estimated and recorded, which reduces the recognized receivable to the estimated amount the Company believes will ultimately be collected. In addition to specific customer identification of bad debts, bad debt charges are recorded based on the Company’s historical losses and an overall assessment of past due trade accounts receivable outstanding. The allowance for accounts receivable is established through a provision reducing the carrying value of receivables. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company determined that no allowance was necessary.

 

Leases

 

The Company accounts for a contract as a lease when it has the right to direct the use of the asset for a period of time while obtaining substantially all of the asset’s economic benefits. The Company determines the initial classification and measurement of its right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities at the lease commencement date and thereafter if modified. ROU assets and liabilities are represented on the balance sheet at the present value of future minimum lease payments to be made over the lease term. Leases that are insignificant or with a 12-month term or less at inception are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheet and are expensed as incurred in the consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2022, the Company leased real estate and office space (the “Saratoga Lease”) under non-cancelable operating lease agreements that qualified for ROU accounting treatment.  As of March 31, 2023, the Company was in default for the Saratoga Lease and, subsequent to March 31, 2023, terminated the lease with the landlord in a settlement agreement.   Commencing on February 1, 2023, the Company leased a second real estate and office space (the “Suite 200 Lease”) under non-cancelable operating lease agreement that qualified for ROU accounting treatment.

 

Property and equipment

 

The Company records depreciation when appropriate using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets. Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The estimated useful lives of the Company’s property and equipment by class are as follows:

 

Asset classes

 

Useful lives (in years)

Vehicles

 

5

Furniture and fixtures

 

7

 

Management regularly reviews property, equipment, and other long-lived assets for possible impairment. This review occurs annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Based on management’s assessment, there were no indicators of impairment of the Company’s property and equipment as of September 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets are recorded at their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition and are allocated to the reporting units that are expected to receive the related benefits. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and year ended December 31, 2022, the Company determined that all intangibles related to the acquisition of USS were fully recognizable at their net book values and therefore no impairment was deemed necessary.

 

On December 13, 2021, the Company executed a share exchange agreement that resulted in the recognition of intangible assets (see Note 3 – Gladiator Share Exchange Agreement). At the time of the share exchange agreement, Management had determined that the intangible assets extrapolated from the share exchange agreement will be amortized over a useful life of 3 years.  Concurrent with the cessation of operations of Gladiator, the Company determined that all intangibles related to the acquisition of Gladiator were impaired.  As such, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded an Impairment Loss of $911,000, the full value of the unamortized Intangibles.

 

On September 23, 2022, the Company executed a share exchange agreement that resulted in the recognition of intangible assets (see Note 4 – USS Share Exchange Agreement). Management has determined that the intangible assets extrapolated from the share exchange agreement will be amortized over the useful life of 3 years.

 

Convertible Debt and Derivative Liabilities

 

The convertible debt is convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion rate of 10% of the lowest trading price during the previous five trading days. The terms of the embedded conversion feature require embedded derivative instrument treatment and classification as a separate liability. The conversion feature and certain other features are considered embedded derivative instruments, such as a conversion reset provision, a penalty provision and redemption option, which are to be recorded at their fair value as its fair value can be separated from the convertible note and its conversion is independent of the underlying note. The Company records the resulting discount on debt related to the conversion features at initial transaction and amortizes the discount using the effective interest rate method over the life of the debt instruments. The conversion liability is then marked to market each reporting period with the resulting gains or losses shown in the consolidated statement of operations.

 

Revenue recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies its performance obligations by transferring control of promised products or services to its customers, which occurs either at a point in time or over time, depending on when the customer obtains the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the products or services.

 

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following five steps:

 

(1) Identify the contract with the customer,

(2) identify the performance obligations in the contract,

(3) determine the transaction price,

(4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

(5) recognize revenue when, or as, the performance obligations are satisfied.

 

Net revenues from Gladiator primarily consist of sales of personal protective products, including armor, plates, helmets, shields, and accessories shipped directly to customers. All revenue transactions for Gladiator comprise a single performance obligation, which consists of the sale of products to customers either through wholesale, intermediary, or direct-to-consumer channels. The company satisfies the performance obligation and records revenues when transfer of control has passed to the customer, based on the terms of sale. In all of the Companies revenue channels, transfer of control takes place at the point of sale upon shipment to customer.

 

Net revenues from USS primarily consist of security services provided to large residential, industrial, construction and government clients. Contracts with customers contain no incentives or discounts that could cause revenue to be allocated or adjusted over time. The Company does offer discounts, but historically the discounts have been insignificant. The Company satisfies the performance obligation for the agreed-upon period of time and location and records revenues after completion. There are no services that would be considered fulfilled over an extended period of time and necessitate different accounting treatment.

 

Advertising Costs

 

Advertising costs are charged to selling, general, and administrative expenses. Advertising production costs are expensed the first time an advertisement related to such production costs is run. Media (television, print and radio) placement costs are expensed in the month during which the advertisement appears. Advertising expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, were $nil and $60,332, respectively, and $nil, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Earnings per Share

 

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders for the period by the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution from common shares issuable through stock options, restricted stock units and other equity awards. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company generated net losses, therefore applying applicable equity instruments for diluted earnings per share would have had an anti-dilutive effect. Please see Note 14 for the computation of earnings per common share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts shown for the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and notes and loans approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of those instruments.

 

The Company groups its recurring, non-recurring and disclosure-only fair value measurements into the following levels when making fair value measurement disclosures:

 

Level 1 Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

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

Level 3 Inputs are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or value drivers are unobservable.

 

Fair value is 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 (an exit price). The Company and its subsidiaries use, as appropriate, a market approach (generally, data from market transactions), an income approach (generally, present value techniques and option-pricing models), and / or a cost approach (generally, replacement cost) to measure the fair value of an asset or liability. These valuation approaches incorporate inputs such as observable, independent market data and/or unobservable data that management believes are predicated on the assumptions market participants would use to price an asset or liability. These inputs may incorporate, as applicable, certain risks such as nonperformance risk, which includes credit risk.

 

The Company received a fair value assessment from a third-party prior to the business combination with Gladiator. See Note 3 for further details and assumptions used in the calculation.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities at tax rates expected to be in effect when such assets or liabilities are realized or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date of a change in tax rates. Deferred income tax assets are reduced by valuation allowances when necessary. On September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had no material unrecognized tax benefits and no adjustments to liabilities or operations were required. The 2019 through 2022 tax years remain subject to examination by federal and most state tax authorities.

 

Commitments and Contingencies

 

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings. The Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings, or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

 

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is possible but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed. Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.

 

Non-controlling Interests

Non-controlling interests are classified in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as a component of equity. The amounts of consolidated net income (loss) attributable to both the Company and the non-controlling interests are separately presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

3. Share Exchange Agreement with Gladiator Solutions, Inc.

 

On December 13, 2021 (the “Gladiator Closing date”), Gladiator (the “Gladiator Seller”) entered into a share exchange agreement with the Company, in which all the outstanding shares of Gladiator, 750,000 common shares, no par value, were exchanged for 1,000,000 shares, $0.001 par value of James Maritime’s common stock.

 

On the Closing date, one of the seller’s shareholders dissented from participating in the acquisition, which immediately resulted in a noncontrolling interest after the completion of the share purchase agreement. The noncontrolling interest is equivalent to the shareholder’s proportionate holdings of 100,000 Gladiator shares, or 13.3%. The remaining shareholders with an equity stake of 86.7% exchanged their total aggregate shares of 650,000 for 866,667 of James Maritime’s common stock shares.

 

The Company also included contingent considerations if Gladiator meets or exceeds certain earnings before interest, taxes, amortization (“EBITDA”) thresholds, (the “Gladiator Milestones”):

 

 

-

$3,000,000 and 25% during any consecutive twelve-month period commencing on the Gladiator closing date and ending December 31, 2024 (the “Measurement period”), the Company shall issue one (1) additional share for each two (2) shares of James Maritime stock received by such shareholder;

 

-

$5,000,000 and 25% during the measurement period, one (1) additional share of James Maritime stock for each one (1) share of James Maritime stock received by such shareholder at the closing;

 

-

$10,000,000 during the measurement period, one (1) additional share of James Maritime stock for each one (1) share of James Maritime stock received by such shareholder at the closing;

 

-

Conversely, in the event Gladiator’s revenues and EBITDA percentage does not equal or exceed $2,000,000 and 25%, respectively, during any consecutive twelve-month period commencing on the closing date and ending on the 24-month anniversary of the Closing date, the seller’s shareholders shall return to the Company an aggregate of 500,000 shares of James Maritime common stock.

 

The Company utilized a third-party valuation specialist to calculate the intangible assets and estimate the purchase price of the agreement. The valuation utilized a share purchase price of $0.50, which constitutes a Level 2 fair value measurement.

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company accrued $2,015 and $1,265, respectively, in interest related to this note. Due to the variable nature of the conversion feature, this note was determined to contain a derivative liability. It was valued using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following inputs: 46,275 shares, stock price of $6.00, exercise price of $0.60, 0.1 year term, and volatility of 40.88%.

 

As of September 30, 2023, these notes have not been converted and are overdue.

Preferred Stock

 

d. Authorized and voting rights

 

The Company is authorized to issue 2,000,000 shares of its series A preferred stock, each with a par value of $0.001. Each share of the series A preferred stock has the equivalent voting power of (30) thirty shares of the Company’s common stock. The series A preferred stock does not have any liquidation or dividend rights or preferences. On July 20, 2021 the Company converted 1,600,000 preferred shares held by a related party, in exchange for 750,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “July conversion”). The series A preferred stock does not have any native convertible rights, preferences, or other conversion terms, and the Company had not previously signed an agreement setting conversion terms for the July conversion. Therefore, the July conversion met the requirements under ASC 260 to be considered a preferred stock extinguishment for the purposes of calculating the company’s earnings per share available to common shareholders. There were no transactions during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)
9 Months Ended
Sep. 30, 2023
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies  
Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reporting amounts of assets and liabilities.

 

Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for inventories, impairment of long-term assets and derivatives.

 

It is reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation, or set of circumstances that existing at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results of could differ significantly from those estimates.

Business Combinations

The Company accounts for all business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. Under this method, assets and liabilities, including any remaining non-controlling interests, are recognized at fair value at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed, and non- controlling interests is recognized as goodwill. Certain adjustments to the assessed fair values of assets and liabilities, or non-controlling interests made subsequent to the acquisition date, but within the measurement period, which is up to one year, are recorded as adjustments to goodwill. Any adjustments subsequent to the measurement period are recorded in income. Results of operations of the acquired entity are included in the Company’s results from the date of the acquisition onward and include amortization expense arising from acquired tangible and intangible assets.

Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three and nine months or less at the date of purchase to be cash and cash equivalents.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company maintains its cash accounts with financial institutions, where, at times, deposits exceed federal insurance limits of $250,000. The Company believes that no significant concentration of credit risk exists with respect to these cash balances due to its assessment of the credit worthiness and financial viability of the financial institutions.

Inventories

Inventories consist primarily of finished goods. Costs of finished goods inventories include all costs incurred to bring inventory to its current condition, which includes standard cost paid to suppliers, shipping costs, and other costs. The Company values its inventory using specific identification method of each inventory item. If the Company determines that the estimated net realizable value of its inventory is less than the carrying value of such inventory, it records a charge to cost of goods sold to reflect the lower of cost or net realizable value. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by the Company, further adjustments may be required that would increase the cost of goods sold in the period in which such a determination was made.  As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had no inventory on hand.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivables are generally recorded at the invoiced amounts, net of an allowance for expected losses. The Company evaluates the collectability of its trade accounts receivable based on a number of factors. In circumstances where the Company becomes aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations to the Company, a specific reserve for bad debts is estimated and recorded, which reduces the recognized receivable to the estimated amount the Company believes will ultimately be collected. In addition to specific customer identification of bad debts, bad debt charges are recorded based on the Company’s historical losses and an overall assessment of past due trade accounts receivable outstanding. The allowance for accounts receivable is established through a provision reducing the carrying value of receivables. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company determined that no allowance was necessary.

Leases

The Company accounts for a contract as a lease when it has the right to direct the use of the asset for a period of time while obtaining substantially all of the asset’s economic benefits. The Company determines the initial classification and measurement of its right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities at the lease commencement date and thereafter if modified. ROU assets and liabilities are represented on the balance sheet at the present value of future minimum lease payments to be made over the lease term. Leases that are insignificant or with a 12-month term or less at inception are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheet and are expensed as incurred in the consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2022, the Company leased real estate and office space (the “Saratoga Lease”) under non-cancelable operating lease agreements that qualified for ROU accounting treatment.  As of March 31, 2023, the Company was in default for the Saratoga Lease and, subsequent to March 31, 2023, terminated the lease with the landlord in a settlement agreement.   Commencing on February 1, 2023, the Company leased a second real estate and office space (the “Suite 200 Lease”) under non-cancelable operating lease agreement that qualified for ROU accounting treatment.

Property and equipment

The Company records depreciation when appropriate using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets. Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The estimated useful lives of the Company’s property and equipment by class are as follows:

 

Asset classes

 

Useful lives (in years)

Vehicles

 

5

Furniture and fixtures

 

7

 

Management regularly reviews property, equipment, and other long-lived assets for possible impairment. This review occurs annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Based on management’s assessment, there were no indicators of impairment of the Company’s property and equipment as of September 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are recorded at their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition and are allocated to the reporting units that are expected to receive the related benefits. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and year ended December 31, 2022, the Company determined that all intangibles related to the acquisition of USS were fully recognizable at their net book values and therefore no impairment was deemed necessary.

 

On December 13, 2021, the Company executed a share exchange agreement that resulted in the recognition of intangible assets (see Note 3 – Gladiator Share Exchange Agreement). At the time of the share exchange agreement, Management had determined that the intangible assets extrapolated from the share exchange agreement will be amortized over a useful life of 3 years.  Concurrent with the cessation of operations of Gladiator, the Company determined that all intangibles related to the acquisition of Gladiator were impaired.  As such, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded an Impairment Loss of $911,000, the full value of the unamortized Intangibles.

 

On September 23, 2022, the Company executed a share exchange agreement that resulted in the recognition of intangible assets (see Note 4 – USS Share Exchange Agreement). Management has determined that the intangible assets extrapolated from the share exchange agreement will be amortized over the useful life of 3 years.

Convertible Debt and Derivative Liabilities

The convertible debt is convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion rate of 10% of the lowest trading price during the previous five trading days. The terms of the embedded conversion feature require embedded derivative instrument treatment and classification as a separate liability. The conversion feature and certain other features are considered embedded derivative instruments, such as a conversion reset provision, a penalty provision and redemption option, which are to be recorded at their fair value as its fair value can be separated from the convertible note and its conversion is independent of the underlying note. The Company records the resulting discount on debt related to the conversion features at initial transaction and amortizes the discount using the effective interest rate method over the life of the debt instruments. The conversion liability is then marked to market each reporting period with the resulting gains or losses shown in the consolidated statement of operations.

Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies its performance obligations by transferring control of promised products or services to its customers, which occurs either at a point in time or over time, depending on when the customer obtains the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the products or services.

 

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following five steps:

 

(1) Identify the contract with the customer,

(2) identify the performance obligations in the contract,

(3) determine the transaction price,

(4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

(5) recognize revenue when, or as, the performance obligations are satisfied.

 

Net revenues from Gladiator primarily consist of sales of personal protective products, including armor, plates, helmets, shields, and accessories shipped directly to customers. All revenue transactions for Gladiator comprise a single performance obligation, which consists of the sale of products to customers either through wholesale, intermediary, or direct-to-consumer channels. The company satisfies the performance obligation and records revenues when transfer of control has passed to the customer, based on the terms of sale. In all of the Companies revenue channels, transfer of control takes place at the point of sale upon shipment to customer.

 

Net revenues from USS primarily consist of security services provided to large residential, industrial, construction and government clients. Contracts with customers contain no incentives or discounts that could cause revenue to be allocated or adjusted over time. The Company does offer discounts, but historically the discounts have been insignificant. The Company satisfies the performance obligation for the agreed-upon period of time and location and records revenues after completion. There are no services that would be considered fulfilled over an extended period of time and necessitate different accounting treatment.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are charged to selling, general, and administrative expenses. Advertising production costs are expensed the first time an advertisement related to such production costs is run. Media (television, print and radio) placement costs are expensed in the month during which the advertisement appears. Advertising expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, were $nil and $60,332, respectively, and $nil, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders for the period by the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution from common shares issuable through stock options, restricted stock units and other equity awards. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company generated net losses, therefore applying applicable equity instruments for diluted earnings per share would have had an anti-dilutive effect. Please see Note 14 for the computation of earnings per common share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts shown for the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and notes and loans approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of those instruments.

 

The Company groups its recurring, non-recurring and disclosure-only fair value measurements into the following levels when making fair value measurement disclosures:

 

Level 1 Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

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

Level 3 Inputs are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or value drivers are unobservable.

 

Fair value is 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 (an exit price). The Company and its subsidiaries use, as appropriate, a market approach (generally, data from market transactions), an income approach (generally, present value techniques and option-pricing models), and / or a cost approach (generally, replacement cost) to measure the fair value of an asset or liability. These valuation approaches incorporate inputs such as observable, independent market data and/or unobservable data that management believes are predicated on the assumptions market participants would use to price an asset or liability. These inputs may incorporate, as applicable, certain risks such as nonperformance risk, which includes credit risk.

 

The Company received a fair value assessment from a third-party prior to the business combination with Gladiator. See Note 3 for further details and assumptions used in the calculation.

Income taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities at tax rates expected to be in effect when such assets or liabilities are realized or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date of a change in tax rates. Deferred income tax assets are reduced by valuation allowances when necessary. On September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had no material unrecognized tax benefits and no adjustments to liabilities or operations were required. The 2019 through 2022 tax years remain subject to examination by federal and most state tax authorities.

Commitments and Contingencies

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings. The Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings, or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

 

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is possible but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed. Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.

Non-controlling Interests

Non-controlling interests are classified in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as a component of equity. The amounts of consolidated net income (loss) attributable to both the Company and the non-controlling interests are separately presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
