History

 

The Company was originally formed in the State of Utah on October 7, 1988, as Port City Corporation.

 

In October 1990, the name of the Company was changed to Interline Resources Corporation (“Interline”) which operated in the oil and gas industry in east-central Wyoming and eastern Utah. On October 15, 2009, Interline filed a Form 15 terminating its registration as a 12(g) company and choosing to adopt an alternative-reporting standard for the filing of its subsequent (unaudited) financial reports.

 

On November 20, 2014, the Company changed its corporate name to Automated-X, Inc. when the company entered the video kiosk distribution business through QUICKflickUSA, Inc. On August 15, 2015, the Company entered into a Securities Exchange and Acquisition Agreement with Saddle Ranch Pictures, Inc. (“SRPI”) wherein the Company acquired SRPI in a cashless exchange of stock. Prior to closing the SRPI acquisition, the Company approved the transfer of 100% of its ownership in its wholly-owned subsidiary, QUICKflickUSA, Inc., to two of the Company’s major shareholders.

 

The name of the Company was changed with the state of Utah on September 9, 2015 from Automated-X, Inc. to Saddle Ranch Media, Inc. The Company’s trading symbol was also changed with FINRA from “AUTX” to “SRMX” effective October 6, 2015. On February 28, 2017 Philip M. Cohen resigned as Chairman and CEO, and in consideration for the Spin-Out of both Saddle Ranch Pictures, Inc and certain digital programming assets representing the “African American Medical Network” to Mr. Cohen, he surrendered 40,000,000 common shares back to the Company’s Treasury. Also, on February 28, 2017, Mr. Cohen sold his holding of 1,000,000 “super voting” Series B preferred shares in a private transaction to The Shamrock Investment Trust, which is in turn controlled by Nadine Peabody, sole trustee.

 

The Company closed on the acquisition of Tri Cascade, Inc. as of April 1, 2017 through a cashless exchange of stock. Since that date the Company’s subsidiary, Tri Cascade, Inc., has continued its develop in IoT ( “Internet of Things”) technology. Tri Cascade Inc. was originally founded in May 2010 in California with an R&D and production team located in Taipei, Taiwan.

On December 21, 2017 the Company increased its authorized share capital from 500,000,000 common shares to 2,500,000,000 common shares. (There was no change to the 3,000,000 authorized Series “B” preferred shares). Then on December 29, 2017 the Board of Directors approved an Amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation whereby the par value of the Company’s common stock was reduced from $0.005 to $0.0001.

 

On April 20, 2018 through an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation the Company increased its authorized share capital from 2,500,000,000 common shares to 5,000,000,000 common shares (There was no change to the 3,000,000 authorized Series “B” preferred shares) and on November 23, 2018 through an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation the Company further increased its authorized share capital from 5,000,000,000 common shares to 7,500,000,000 common shares. (Again, there was no change to the 3,000,000 authorized Series “B” preferred shares). On September 3, 2019 through an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation the Company further increased its authorized share capital from 7,500,000,000 common shares to 15,000,000,000 common shares. (Again, there was no change to the 3,000,000 authorized Series “B” preferred shares). Effective July 8, 2024 the Company additionally increased its authorized share capital from 15,000,000,000 common shares to 17,500,000,000 common shares (with no additional increase to its authorized preferred shares).

During 2022 Tri Cascade signed a joint-partnership agreement for its TRITOM GX550s 5G industrial grade Gateway, with Microsoft Sphere, for product and production development with New Kinpo Group (“NKG”) , which is a Total Manufacturing Solutions Provider. NKG will be the key supply chain vendor for Tri Cascade ’s forthcoming 5G business for production.

RISK FACTORS

  

The following is only a brief summary of the risks involved in investing in our Company. Investment in our Securities involves risks. You should carefully consider the following risk factors in addition to other information contained in this Disclosure Document. The occurrence of any of the following risks might cause you to lose all or part of your investment. Some statements in this Document, including statements in the following risk factors, constitute “Forward-Looking Statements.”

 

The price of our common stock may continue to be volatile.

 

The trading price of our common stock has been and is likely to remain highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control or unrelated to our operating performance. In addition to the factors discussed in this “Risk Factors” section and elsewhere, these factors include: the operating performance of similar companies; the overall performance of the equity markets; the announcements by us or our competitors of acquisitions, business plans, or commercial relationships; threatened or actual litigation; changes in laws or regulations relating to the our business; any major change in our board of directors or management; publication of research reports or news stories about us, our competitors, or our industry or positive or negative recommendations or withdrawal of research coverage by securities analysts; large volumes of sales of our shares of common stock by existing stockholders; and general political and economic conditions.

 

In addition, the stock market in general, and the market for development stage companies in particular, has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies’ securities. This litigation, if instituted against us, could result in very substantial costs; divert our management’s attention and resources; and harm our business, operating results, and financial condition.

 

There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company is a development stage enterprise, developing various telecommunication devices such as modems, routers and dongles and first began to sell its products in 2023 through online retail sources such as Amazon, Walmart and NewEgg. The Company had revenues of $134,890 for the 12 months ended December 31, 2023 and revenues of $19,164 for the 3 months ended March 31, 2024, and incurred a net loss of $ 641,043] for the 3 months ended March , 2024 and $1,130,887for the year ended December 31, 2023. In addition, the Company has a shareholders’ deficit of $1,473,944 for the period since inception through March 31, 2024. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

There can be no assurance that sufficient funds required during this current year or thereafter will be generated from operations or that funds will be available from external sources, such as debt or equity financings or other potential sources. The lack of additional capital resulting from the inability to generate cash flow from operations, or to raise capital from external sources would force the Company to substantially curtail or cease operations and would, therefore, have a material adverse effect on its business. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any such required funds, if available, will be available on attractive terms or that they will not have a significant dilutive effect on the Company’s existing stockholders.

 

The Company intends to overcome the circumstances that impact its ability to remain a going concern through a combination of the commencement of revenues, with interim cash flow deficiencies being addressed through additional equity and debt financing. The Company anticipates raising additional funds through public or private financing, strategic relationships or other arrangements in the near future to support its business operations; however, the Company may not have commitments from third parties for a sufficient amount of additional capital. The Company cannot be certain that any such financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and its failure to raise capital when needed could limit its ability to continue its operations. The Company’s ability to obtain additional funding will determine its ability to continue as a going concern. Failure to secure additional financing in a timely manner and on favorable terms would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial performance, results of operations and stock price and require it to curtail or cease operations, sell off its assets, seek protection from its creditors through bankruptcy proceedings, or otherwise. Furthermore, additional equity financing may be dilutive to the holders of the Company’s common stock, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants, and strategic relationships, if necessary to raise additional funds, and may require that the Company relinquish valuable rights.

Risks Relating to Our Financial Condition

 

Our financials are not independently audited, which could result in errors and/or omissions in our financial statements if proper standards are not applied.

 

Although the Company is confident with the accuracy of its accounting practices, we are not required to have our financials audited by an auditor certified by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”). As such, we do not have a third party reviewing the accounting. Our accounting staff may also not be up to date with all publications and releases put out by the PCAOB regarding accounting standards and treatments. This could mean that our unaudited financials may not properly reflect up to date standards and treatments resulting misstated financials statements.

 

Our management has a limited experience operating a public company and are subject to the risks commonly encountered by early-stage companies.

 

Although management of Saddle Ranch Media, Inc. has experience in operating small companies, current management has not had to manage expansion while being a public company. In addition, management has not overseen a company with large growth. Because we have a limited operating history, our operating prospects should be considered in light of the risks and uncertainties frequently encountered by early-stage companies in rapidly evolving markets. These risks include:

 

●	risks that we may not have sufficient capital to achieve our growth strategy;
●	risks that we may not develop our product and service offerings in a manner that enables us to be profitable and meet our customers’ requirements;
●	risks that our growth strategy may not be successful; and
●	risks that fluctuations in our operating results will be significant relative to our revenues.

 

These risks are described in more detail below. Our future growth will depend substantially on our ability to address these and the other risks described in this section. If we do not successfully address these risks, our business could be significantly harmed.

 

We have limited operational history in an emerging industry, making it difficult to accurately predict and forecast business operations.

 

As we have limited operations in our business and have yet to generate significant revenue, it is extremely difficult to make accurate predictions and forecasts on our finances. This is compounded by the fact that we operate in rapidly transforming industries. There is no guarantee that our products or services will remain attractive to potential and current users as these industries undergo rapid change, or that potential customers will utilize our services.

 

We have yet to achieve a profit and may not achieve a profit in the near future, if at all.

 

We have not yet produced a net profit and may not in the near future, if at all. While we expect our revenue to grow, we have not achieved profitability and cannot be certain that we will be able to sustain our current growth rate or realize sufficient revenue to achieve profitability. Further, many of our competitors in the IoT field have a significantly larger user base and revenue stream but have yet to achieve profitability. Our ability to continue as a going concern may be dependent upon raising capital from financing transactions, increasing revenue throughout the year and keeping operating expenses below our revenue levels in order to achieve positive cash flows, none of which can be assured.

 

We will require additional capital to support business growth, and this capital might not be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

 

We intend to continue to make investments to support our business growth and may require additional funds to respond to business challenges, including the need to improve our operating infrastructure or acquire complementary businesses and technologies. Accordingly, we will need to engage in continued equity or debt financings to secure additional funds. If we raise additional funds through future issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of our common stock. Any debt financing we secure in the future could involve restrictive covenants relating to our capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, our ability to continue to support our business growth and to respond to business challenges could be impaired, and our business may be harmed.

We are highly dependent on the services of our key executives, the loss of whom could materially harm our business and our strategic direction. If we lose key management or significant personnel, cannot recruit qualified employees, directors, officers, or other personnel or experience increases in our compensation costs, our business may materially suffer.

 

We are highly dependent on our management, specifically Max Chin Li and Alan Bailey. We have employment agreements in place with these key employees. If we lose key employees, our business may suffer. Furthermore, our future success will also depend in part on the continued service of our management personnel and our ability to identify, hire, and retain additional key personnel. We do not carry “key-man” life insurance on the lives of any of our executives, employees or advisors. We experience intense competition for qualified personnel and may be unable to attract and retain the personnel necessary for the development of our business. Because of this competition, our compensation costs may increase significantly.

 

We may be unable to manage growth, which may impact our potential profitability.

 

Successful implementation of our business strategy requires us to manage our growth. Growth could place an increasing strain on our management and financial resources. To manage growth effectively, we will need to:

 

●

Establish definitive business strategies, goals and objectives;

 

●

Maintain a system of management controls; and

 

●

Attract and retain qualified personnel, as well as develop, train, and manage management-level and other employees.

 

If we fail to manage our growth effectively, our business, financial condition, or operating results could be materially harmed, and our stock price may decline.

 

We operate in a highly competitive environment, and if we are unable to compete with our competitors, our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects could be materially adversely affected.

 

We operate in a highly competitive environment. Our competition includes all other companies that are in the business of the Internet of Things or other related technologies. A highly competitive environment could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects.

 

We may not be able to compete successfully with other established companies offering the same or similar services and, as a result, we may not achieve our projected revenue and user targets.

 

If we are unable to compete successfully with other businesses in our existing market, we may not achieve our projected revenue and/or customer targets. We compete with both start-up and established technology companies. Compared to our business, some of our competitors, such as Honeywell, Wyze and Qlsys, have greater financial and other resources, have been in business longer, have greater name recognition and are better established in retail markets.

 

Our lack of adequate D&O insurance may also make it difficult for us to retain and attract talented and skilled directors and officers.

 

In the future we may be subject to additional litigation, including potential class action and stockholder derivative actions. Risks associated with legal liability are difficult to assess and quantify, and their existence and magnitude can remain unknown for significant periods of time. To date, we have not obtained directors and officers liability (“D&O”) insurance. Without adequate D&O insurance, the amounts we would pay to indemnify our officers and directors should they be subject to legal action based on their service to the Company could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. Furthermore, our lack of adequate D&O insurance may make it difficult for us to retain and attract talented and skilled directors and officers, which could adversely affect our business.

 

We expect to incur substantial expenses to meet our reporting obligations as a public company. In addition, failure to maintain adequate financial and management processes and controls could lead to errors in our financial reporting and could harm our ability to manage our expenses.

 

We estimate that it will cost approximately $50,000 annually to maintain the proper management and financial controls for our filings required as a public reporting company. In addition, if we do not maintain adequate financial and management personnel, processes, and controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial performance on a timely basis, which could cause a decline in our stock price and adversely affect our ability to raise capital.

Risks Relating to our Common Stock and Offering

 

The Common Stock is thinly traded, so you may be unable to sell at or near ask prices or at all if you need to sell your shares to raise money or otherwise desire to liquidate your shares.

 

The Common Stock has historically been sporadically traded on the OTC Pink Sheets, meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our shares at, or near ask prices at any given time, may be relatively small or non-existent. This situation is attributable to a number of factors, including the fact that we are a small company which is relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors and others in the investment community that generate or influence sales volume, and that even if we came to the attention of such persons, they tend to be risk-averse and would be reluctant to follow an unproven company such as ours or purchase or recommend the purchase of our shares until such time as we became more seasoned and viable. As a consequence, there may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in our shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer, which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price. We cannot give you any assurance that a broader or more active public trading market for our common shares will develop or be sustained, or that current trading levels will be sustained.

 

The market price for the common stock is particularly volatile given our status as a relatively unknown company with a small and thinly traded public float, limited operating history, and lack of revenue, which could lead to wide fluctuations in our share price. The price at which you purchase our shares may not be indicative of the price that will prevail in the trading market. You may be unable to sell your common shares at or above your purchase price, which may result in substantial losses to you.

 

The market for our shares of common stock is characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share price will continue to be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. The volatility in our share price is attributable to a number of factors. First, as noted above, our shares are sporadically traded. As a consequence of this lack of liquidity, the trading of relatively small quantities of shares may disproportionately influence the price of those shares in either direction. The price for our shares could, for example, decline precipitously in the event that a large number of our shares is sold on the market without commensurate demand, as compared to a seasoned issuer which could better absorb those sales without adverse impact on its share price. Secondly, we are a speculative investment due to, among other matters, our limited operating history and lack of revenue or profit to date, and the uncertainty of future market acceptance for our potential products. As a consequence of this enhanced risk, more risk-averse investors may, under the fear of losing all or most of their investment in the event of negative news or lack of progress, be more inclined to sell their shares on the market more quickly and at greater discounts than would be the case with the securities of a seasoned issuer. The following factors may add to the volatility in the price of our shares: actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly or annual operating results; acceptance of our inventory of games; government regulations, announcements of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships or joint ventures; our capital commitments and additions or departures of our key personnel. Many of these factors are beyond our control and may decrease the market price of our shares regardless of our operating performance. We cannot make any predictions or projections as to what the prevailing market price for our shares will be at any time, including as to whether our shares will sustain their current market prices, or as to what effect the sale of shares or the availability of shares for sale at any time will have on the prevailing market price.

 

Shareholders should be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include (1) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (2) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (3) boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (4) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (5) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses. Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities. The possible occurrence of these patterns or practices could increase the volatility of our share price.

 

The market price of our common stock may be volatile and adversely affected by several factors.

 

The market price of our common stock could fluctuate significantly in response to various factors and events, including, but not limited to:

 

●

our ability to integrate operations, technology, products and services;

 

●	our ability to execute our business plan;
●	operating results below expectations;

●

our issuance of additional securities, including debt or equity or a combination thereof;

 

●

announcements of technological innovations or new products by us or our competitors;

 

●

loss of any strategic relationship;

 

●

industry developments, including, without limitation, changes in competition or practices;

 

●

economic and other external factors;

 

●

period-to-period fluctuations in our financial results; and

 

●

whether an active trading market in our common stock develops and is maintained.

 

In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Issuers using the Alternative Reporting standard for filing financial reports with OTC Markets are often subject to large volatility unrelated to the fundamentals of the company.

 

Natural disasters and geo-political events could adversely affect our business.

 

Natural disasters, including hurricanes, cyclones, typhoons, tropical storms, floods, earthquakes and tsunamis, weather conditions, including winter storms, droughts and tornadoes, whether as a result of climate change or otherwise, and geo-political events, including civil unrest or terrorist attacks, that affect us, or other service providers, could adversely affect our business.

 

We do not expect to pay dividends in the future; any return on investment may be limited to the value of our common stock.

 

We have never paid dividends and do not currently anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends on our common stock will depend on earnings, financial condition and other business and economic factors affecting it at such time as the board of directors may consider relevant. Our current intention is to apply net earnings, if any, in the foreseeable future to increasing our capital base and development and marketing efforts. There can be no assurance that the Company will ever have sufficient earnings to declare and pay dividends to the holders of our common stock, and in any event, a decision to declare and pay dividends is at the sole discretion of our board of directors. If we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because a return on your investment will only occur if its stock price appreciates.

 

Our issuance of additional shares of Common Stock, or options or warrants to purchase those shares, would dilute your proportionate ownership and voting rights.

 

We are entitled under our articles of incorporation to issue up to 17,500,000,000 shares of common stock. We have issued as of March 31, 2024, 14,019,651,015 shares of common stock. In addition, we are authorized under our Articles of Incorporation to issue “blank check” preferred stock. Our board may generally issue shares of common stock, preferred stock, options, or warrants to purchase those shares, without further approval by our shareholders based upon such factors as our board of directors may deem relevant at that time. It is likely that we will be required to issue a large amount of additional securities to raise capital to further our development. It is also likely that we will issue a large amount of additional securities to directors, officers, employees and consultants as compensatory grants in connection with their services, both in the form of stand-alone grants or under our stock plans. We cannot give you any assurance that we will not issue additional shares of common stock, or options or warrants to purchase those shares, under circumstances we may deem appropriate at the time.

 

The elimination of monetary liability against our directors, officers and employees under our Articles of Incorporation and the existence of indemnification rights to our directors, officers and employees may result in substantial expenditures by our company and may discourage lawsuits against our directors, officers and employees.

 

Our Articles of Incorporation contains provisions that eliminate the liability of our directors for monetary damages to our company and shareholders. Our bylaws also require us to indemnify our officers and directors. We may also have contractual indemnification obligations under our agreements with our directors, officers and employees. The foregoing indemnification obligations could result in our company incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against directors, officers and employees that we may be unable to recoup. These provisions and resulting costs may also discourage our company from bringing a lawsuit against directors, officers and employees for breaches of their fiduciary duties, and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by our shareholders against our directors, officers and employees even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit our company and shareholders.

We may become involved in securities class action litigation that could divert management’s attention and harm our business.

 

The stock market in general, and the shares of early-stage companies in particular, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. These fluctuations have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the companies involved. If these fluctuations occur in the future, the market price of our shares could fall regardless of our operating performance. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a particular company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been brought against that company. If the market price or volume of our shares suffers extreme fluctuations, then we may become involved in this type of litigation, which would be expensive and divert management’s attention and resources from managing our business.

 

As a public company, we may also from time to time make forward-looking statements about future operating results and provide some financial guidance to the public markets. Our management has limited experience as a management team in a public company and as a result, projections may not be made timely or set at expected performance levels and could materially affect the price of our shares. Any failure to meet published forward-looking statements that adversely affect the stock price could result in losses to investors, stockholder lawsuits or other litigation, sanctions or restrictions issued by the SEC.

 

Our common stock is currently deemed a “penny stock,” which makes it more difficult for our investors to sell their shares.

 

The SEC has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, and the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.

 

In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person and make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

 

The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination, and that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.

 

Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock if and when such shares are eligible for sale and may cause a decline in the market value of its stock.

 

Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading, and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities, and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stock.

 

As an issuer of a “penny stock,” the protection provided by the federal securities laws relating to forward-looking statements does not apply to us.

 

Although federal securities laws provide a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by a public company that files reports under the federal securities laws, this safe harbor is not available to issuers of penny stocks. As a result, we will not have the benefit of this safe harbor protection in the event of any legal action based upon a claim that the material provided by us contained a material misstatement of fact or was misleading in any material respect because of our failure to include any statements necessary to make the statements not misleading. Such an action could hurt our financial condition.

 

As an issuer not required to make reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, holders of restricted shares may not be able to sell shares into the open market as Rule 144 exemptions may not apply.

 

Under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, holders of restricted shares may avail themselves of certain exemptions from registration if the holder and the issuer meet certain requirements. As a company that is not required to file reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act, referred to as a non-reporting company, we may not, in the future, meet the requirements for an issuer under 144 that would allow a holder to qualify for Rule 144 exemptions. In such an event, holders of restricted stock would have to utilize another exemption from registration or rely on a registration statement to be filed by the Company registering the restricted stock.

Securities analysts may elect not to report on our common stock or may issue negative reports that adversely affect the stock price.

 

At this time, no securities analysts provide research coverage of our common stock, and securities analysts may not elect to provide such coverage in the future. It may remain difficult for our company, with its small market capitalization, to attract independent financial analysts that will cover our common stock. If securities analysts do not cover our common stock, the lack of research coverage may adversely affect the stock’s actual and potential market price. The trading market for our common stock may be affected in part by the research and reports that industry or financial analysts publish about our business. If one or more analysts elect to cover our company and then downgrade the stock, the stock price would likely decline rapidly. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of our company, we could lose visibility in the market, which, in turn, could cause our stock price to decline. This could have a negative effect on the market price of our common stock.

 

Because directors and officers currently and for the foreseeable future will continue to control the Company, it is not likely that you will be able to elect directors or have any say in the policies of Saddle Ranch Media, Inc.

 

Our shareholders are not entitled to cumulative voting rights. Consequently, the election of directors and all other matters requiring shareholder approval will be decided by majority vote. The directors, officers and affiliates of Saddle Ranch Media, Inc. beneficially own a majority of our outstanding common stock voting rights . Due to such significant ownership position held by our insiders, new investors may not be able to affect a change in our business or management, and therefore, shareholders would have no recourse as a result of decisions made by management.

 

In addition, sales of significant amounts of shares held by our directors, officers or affiliates, or the prospect of these sales, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Management’s stock ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which in turn could reduce our stock price or prevent our stockholders from realizing a premium over our stock price.

 

Risks Relating to Our Company and Industry

 

The following risks relate to our proposed business and the effects upon us assuming we obtain financing in a sufficient amount. 

 

A loss of confidence in our security system, or a breach of our security system, may adversely affect us and the value of an investment in us.

 

We will take measures to protect us and our system from unauthorized access, damage or theft; however, it is possible that the security system may not prevent the improper access to, or damage or theft of our information. A security breach could harm our reputation or result in the loss of some or all of our information. A resulting perception that our measures do not adequately protect our systems could result in a loss of current or potential shareholders, reducing demand for our Common Stock and causing our shares to decrease in value. 

 

Intellectual property rights claims may adversely affect an investment in us.

 

We are not aware of any intellectual property claims that may prevent us from operating our patents; however, third parties may assert intellectual property claims relating to our operation. Regardless of the merit of an intellectual property or other legal action, any legal expenses to defend or payments to settle such claims would be extremely expensive. As a result, an intellectual property claim against us could adversely affect an investment in us. 

 

Our industry is highly competitive and as an emerging growth company with a new brand we may be at a disadvantage to our competitors.

 

Our industry is highly competitive in general. We are an emerging growth company with limited financial resources and our brand has limited recognition.  Our competitors, both established and future unknown competitors, have better brand recognition and, in most cases, substantially greater financial resources than we have. Our ability to successfully compete in our industry depends on a number of factors, both within and outside our control. These factors include the following:

 

	●	our success in designing and developing new or enhanced products;
	●	our ability to address the changing needs and desires of retailers and consumers;
	●	the pricing, quality, performance, reliability, features, ease of installation and use, and diversity of our products;
	●	the quality of our customer service;
	●	product or technology introductions by our competitors; and
	●	the ability of our contract manufacturing to deliver on time, on price, and with acceptable quality.

If we are unable to effectively compete on a continuing basis or unforeseen competitive pressures arise, such inability to compete could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and overall financial condition.

 

Our products may not achieve market acceptance thereby reducing the chance for success.

 

We are only in the early stages of selling our first products, It is unclear whether these product and their features or other unanticipated events may result in lower sales than anticipated, which could force us to limit our expenditures on research and development, advertising, and general company requirements for improving and expanding our product offerings.  We cannot guarantee consumer demand or interest in our current or future product offerings, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and overall financial condition.

 

If the market chooses to buy our competitors’ products and services, we may fail.

 

Although we believe that our product offerings will be commercially viable, there is no verification by the marketplace that its products will be accepted by or purchased by customers. If the market chooses to buy our competitors’ products, it may be more difficult for us to ever become profitable which would substantially harm our business and, possibly, cause it to fail whereby you could lose your entire investment.

 

Consumer trends, seasons fluctuations, and general global economic conditions and outlook may cause unpredictable operating results.

 

Our operating results may fluctuate significantly from period to period as a result of a variety of factors, including consumer trends, seasonal purchasing patterns of customers, competitive pricing, and general economic conditions. There is no assurance that we will be successful in marketing our product, or that the revenues from the sale of our products will be significant.  Consequently, our revenues may vary significantly by quarter, and our operating results may experience significant fluctuations making it difficult to value our business and could lead to extreme volatility in our share price.

 

We may be unable to protect our proprietary rights.

 

Our future success depends in part on our proprietary technology, technical know-how and other intellectual property. We rely on intellectual property laws, confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions, such as nondisclosure terms, to protect our intellectual property. Others may independently develop similar technology, duplicate our products, or design around our intellectual property rights. In addition, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products and technologies or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. Any of these events could significantly harm our business, financial condition, our patents and our operating results.

 

We also rely on technologies that we acquire from others. We may rely on third parties for further required technologies. We may purchase a computer’s logic component or other technological devices from outside sources and will need to pay annual fees to enable us to get updates/upgrades and technical support to the logic portion of the system or device. We may find it necessary or desirable in the future to obtain licenses or other rights relating to one or more if our products or to current or future technologies. These licenses or other rights may not be available on commercially reasonable terms or at all. The inability to obtain certain licenses or other rights or to obtain such licenses or rights on favorable terms, or the need to engage in litigation regarding these matters, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results. Moreover, the use of intellectual property licensed from third parties may limit our ability to protect the proprietary rights in our products. 

 

While no current lawsuits are filed against us, the possibility exists that a claim of some kind may be made in the future.

 

While no current lawsuits are filed against us, the possibility exists that a claim of some kind may be made in the future. We currently have no plan to purchase liability insurance, which means that the Company would need to fund its own legal fees and costs in any such lawsuit. 

We may depend on contract manufacturers who may not have adequate capacity to fulfill our needs or may not meet our quality and delivery objectives and timetables.

 

We do not own our production lines or manufacturing facilities.  We manufacture our products in the United States and Taiwan through third-party manufacturers . Our reliance on these third-party contract manufacturers involves significant risks, including reduced control over quality and logistics management, the potential lack of adequate capacity, and discontinuance of the contractors’ assembly processes. Potential financial instability at our contract manufacturers could result in us having to find new suppliers, which could increase our costs and delay our product and installation deliveries. These contract manufacturers may also choose to discontinue contracting to build our products for a variety of reasons. Consequently, we may experience delays in the timeliness, quality and adequacy in product and installation deliveries, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and overall financial condition.

 

We have limited experience with our current product offerings, which makes it difficult to predict our future operating results.

 

The success of our new product offerings will depend on many factors, including timely and successful research and development, pricing, market and consumer acceptance of such new products and the product offerings of our competitors. If new product offerings are not successful, our revenue growth will suffer, and our results of operations may be harmed. Further, we do not have significant experience in these offerings and cannot be assured that our investments in the development of our offerings will result in increased revenue.

 

We will require additional funding to develop and commercialize our services, products, and software. If we are unable to secure additional financing on acceptable terms, or at all, we may be forced to modify our current business plan or to curtail or cease our planned operations.

 

We anticipate incurring significant operating losses and using significant funds for product development and operating activities. Our existing cash resources are insufficient to finance even our immediate operations. Accordingly, we will need to secure additional sources of capital to develop our business and product candidates, as planned. We intend to seek substantial additional financing through public and/or private financing, which may include equity and/or debt financings, and through other arrangements, including collaborative arrangements. As part of such efforts, we may seek loans from certain of our executive officers, directors and/or current shareholders.

 

If we are unable to secure additional financing in the near term, we may be forced to:

 

	●	curtail or abandon our existing business plans;
	●	default on any debt obligations;
	●	file for bankruptcy;
	●	seek to sell some or all of our assets; and/or
	●	cease our operations.

 

If we are forced to take any of these steps our common stock may be worthless.

 

Revenue derived from large orders could adversely affect our gross margin and could lead to greater variability in our quarterly results.

 

Large orders may be more sensitive to changes in the global industrial economy, may be subject to greater discount variability, lower gross margins, and may contract at a faster pace during an economic downturn compared to smaller orders. To the extent that the amount of our net sales derived from large orders increases in future periods, either in absolute dollars or as a percentage of our overall business, our gross margins could decline, and we could experience greater volatility and see a greater negative impact from future downturns in the global industrial economy. This dynamic may also have an impact on the historical seasonal pattern of our net sales and our results of operations. These types of orders also make managing inventory levels more difficult as we have in the past and may have to in the future build large quantities of inventory in anticipation of future demand that may not materialize. 

 

We intend to make significant investments in new products that may not be successful or achieve expected returns.

 

 We plan to make significant investments in research, development, and marketing for new and existing products and technologies. These investments involve a number of risks as the commercial success of such efforts depend on many factors, including our ability to anticipate and respond to innovation, achieve the desired technological fit, and be effective with our marketing and distribution efforts. If our existing or potential customers do not perceive our latest product offerings as providing significant new functionality or value, or if we are late to market with a new product or technology, we may not achieve our expected return on our investments or be able recover the costs expended to develop new product offerings, which could have a material adverse effect on our operating results. Even if our new products are profitable, our operating margins for new products may not be as high as the margins we have experienced historically.

Our success depends on new product introductions and market acceptance of our products.

 

The market for our products is characterized by rapid technological change, evolving industry standards, changes in customer needs and frequent new product introductions, and is therefore highly dependent upon timely product innovation. Our success is dependent on our ability to successfully develop and introduce new and enhanced products on a timely basis to replace declining revenues from older products, and on increasing penetration in domestic and international markets. We may experience significant delays between the announcement and the commercial availability of new products. Any significant delay in releasing new products could have a material adverse effect on the ultimate success of a product and other related products and could impede continued sales of predecessor products, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our operating results. There can be no assurance that we will be able to introduce new products in accordance with announced release dates, that our new products will achieve market acceptance or that any such acceptance will be sustained for any significant period. Failure of our new products to achieve or sustain market acceptance could have a material adverse effect on our operating results.

 

We may experience component shortages that may adversely affect our business and result of operations.

 

We have experienced difficulty in securing certain types of high power connectors for one of our projects and anticipate that supply shortages of components used in our products, including limited source components, can result in significant additional costs and inefficiencies in manufacturing. If we are unsuccessful in resolving any such component shortages in a timely manner, we will experience a significant impact on the timing of revenue, a possible loss of revenue, or an increase in manufacturing costs, any of which would have a material adverse impact on our operating results.

 

We rely on management information systems. interruptions in our information technology systems or cyber-attacks on our systems could adversely affect our business.

 

We rely on the efficient and uninterrupted operation of complex information technology systems and networks to operate our business. We rely on a primary global center for our management information systems and on multiple systems in branches not covered by our global center. As with any information system, unforeseen issues may arise that could affect our ability to receive adequate, accurate and timely financial information, which in turn could inhibit effective and timely decisions. Furthermore, it is possible that our global center for information systems or our branch operations could experience a complete or partial shutdown. A significant system or network disruption could be the result of new system implementations, computer viruses, cyber-attacks, security breaches, facility issues or energy blackouts. Threats to our information technology security can take a variety of forms and individuals or groups of hackers or sophisticated organizations including state-sponsored organizations, may take steps that pose threats to our customers and our infrastructure. If we were to experience a shutdown, disruption or attack, it would adversely impact our product shipments and net sales, as order processing and product distribution are heavily dependent on our management information systems. Such an interruption could also result in a loss of our intellectual property or the release of sensitive competitive information or partner, customer or employee personal data. Any loss of such information could harm our competitive position, result in a loss of customer confidence, and cause us to incur significant costs to remedy the damages caused by the disruptions or security breaches. In addition, changing laws and regulations governing our responsibility to safeguard private data could result in a significant increase in operating or capital expenditures needed to comply with these new laws or regulations. Accordingly, our operating results in such periods would be adversely impacted.

 

We are continually working to maintain reliable systems to control costs and improve our ability to deliver our products in our markets worldwide. Our efforts include, but are not limited to the following: firewalls, antivirus protection, patches, log monitors, routine backups with offsite retention of storage media, system audits, data partitioning and routine password modifications. Our internal information technology systems environment continues to evolve and our business policies and internal security controls may not keep pace as new threats emerge. No assurance can be given that our efforts to continue to enhance our systems will be successful. 

 

We are subject to risks associated with our website.

 

We devote significant resources to maintaining our website (www.tricascadeinc.com) as a key marketing, sales and support tool and expect to continue to do so in the future. Failure to properly maintain our Website may interrupt normal operations, including our ability to provide quotes, process orders, ship products, provide services and support to our customers, bill and track our customers, fulfill contractual obligations and otherwise run our business which would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. We host our Website internally. Any failure to successfully maintain our Website or any significant downtime or outages affecting our Website could have a material adverse impact on our operating results.

 

Our products are complex and may contain bugs or errors.

 

Our new software products or new operating systems of third parties on which our products are based often contain bugs or errors that can result in reduced sales or cause our support costs to increase, either of which could have a material adverse impact on our operating results.

We are subject to the risk of product liability claims.

 

Our products are designed to provide information upon which users may rely. Our products are also used in “real time” applications requiring extremely rapid and continuous processing and constant feedback. Such applications give rise to the risk that a failure or interruption of the system or application could result in economic damage, bodily harm or property damage. We attempt to assure the quality and accuracy of the processes contained in our products, and to limit our product liability exposure through contractual limitations on liability, limited warranties, express disclaimers and warnings as well as disclaimers contained in our “shrink wrap” and electronically displayed license agreements with end-users. If our products contain errors that produce incorrect results on which users rely or cause failure or interruption of systems or processes, customer acceptance of our products could be adversely affected. Further, we could be subject to liability claims that could have a material adverse effect on our operating results or financial position. Although we maintain liability insurance for product liability matters, there can be no assurance that such insurance or the contractual limitations used by us to limit our liability will be sufficient to cover or limit any claims which may occur.

 

Each of our current product candidates and services is in an early stage of development and we may never succeed in developing and/or commercializing them. If we are unable to commercialize our services, products, or software, or if we experience significant delays in doing so, our business may fail.

 

We intend to invest a significant portion of our efforts and financial resources in our software and we will depend heavily on its success. This software is currently in the beta stage of development. We need to devote significant additional research and development, financial resources and personnel to develop additional commercially viable products, establish intellectual property rights, if necessary, and establish a sales and marketing infrastructure. We are likely to encounter hurdles and unexpected issues as we proceed in the development of our software and our other product candidates. There are many reasons that we may not succeed in our efforts to develop our product candidates, including the possibility that our product candidates will be deemed undesirable; our product candidates will be too expensive to develop or market or will not achieve broad market acceptance; others will hold proprietary rights that will prevent us from marketing our product candidates; or our competitors will market products that are perceived as equivalent or superior.

 

We depend on third parties to assist us in the development of our software and other product candidates, and any failure of those parties to fulfill their obligations could result in costs and delays and prevent us from successfully commercializing our software and product candidates on a timely basis, if at all.

 

We may engage consultants and other third parties to help develop our software and product candidates. We may face delays in our commercialization efforts if these parties do not perform their obligations in a timely or competent fashion or if we are forced to change service providers. Any third parties that we hire may also provide services to our competitors, which could compromise the performance of their obligations to us. If these third parties do not successfully carry out their duties or meet expected deadlines, the commercialization of our software and product candidates may be extended, delayed or terminated or may otherwise prove to be unsuccessful. Any delays or failures as a result of the failure to perform by third parties would cause our development costs to increase, and we may not be able to commercialize our product candidates. In addition, we may not be able to establish or maintain relationships with these third parties on favorable terms, if at all. If we need to enter into replacement arrangements because a third party is not performing in accordance with our expectations, we may not be able to do so without undue delays or considerable expenditures or at all. 

 

If we are not able to protect and control our trade secrets, know-how and other technological innovation, we may suffer competitive harm.

 

We rely on certain technology, trade secrets, confidential information and proprietary know-how to protect our technology and maintain any future competitive position, especially when we do not believe that patent protection is appropriate or can be obtained. Trade secrets are difficult to protect. In order to protect proprietary technology and processes, we rely in part on confidentiality and intellectual property assignment agreements with our employees, consultants and others. These agreements generally provide that the individual must keep confidential and not disclose to other parties any confidential information developed or learned by the individual during the course of the individual’s relationship with us except in limited circumstances. These agreements generally also provide that we shall own all inventions conceived by the individual in the course of rendering services to us. These agreements may not effectively prevent disclosure of confidential information or result in the effective assignment to us of intellectual property, and may not provide an adequate remedy in the event of unauthorized disclosure of confidential information or other breaches of the agreements. In addition, others may independently discover trade secrets and proprietary information that have been licensed to us or that we own, and in such cases, we could not assert any trade secret rights against such party.

Enforcing a claim that a party illegally obtained and is using trade secrets that have been licensed to us or that we own is difficult, expensive, time-consuming, and the outcome is unpredictable. In addition, courts outside the United States may be less willing to protect trade secrets. Costly and time-consuming litigation could be necessary to seek to enforce and determine the scope of our proprietary rights, and failure to obtain or maintain trade secret protection could have a material adverse effect on our business. Moreover, some of our academic institution licensors, collaborators and scientific advisors have rights to publish data and information to which we have rights. If we cannot maintain the confidentiality of our technologies and other confidential information in connection with our collaborations, our ability to protect our proprietary information or obtain patent protection in the future may be impaired, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

Our future growth is dependent upon our ability to keep pace with rapid technological and industry changes in order to develop or acquire new technologies for our products and service introductions that achieve market acceptance with acceptable margins.

 

Our business operates in markets that are characterized by rapidly changing technologies, evolving industry standards, potential new entrants, and changes in customer needs and expectations. Accordingly, our future success depends in part on our ability to accomplish the following: identify emerging technological trends in our target end-markets; develop, acquire, and maintain competitive products and services that capitalize on existing and emerging trends; enhance our existing products and services by adding innovative features on a timely and cost-effective basis that differentiates us from our competitors; sufficiently capture intellectual property rights in new inventions and other innovations; and develop or acquire and bring products and services, including enhancements, to market quickly and cost-effectively. Our ability to develop or acquire new products and services that are technologically innovative requires the investment of significant resources and can affect our competitive position. These acquisition and development efforts divert resources from other potential investments in our businesses, and they may not lead to the development of new commercially successful technologies, products, or services on a timely basis. Moreover, as we introduce new products and services, we may be unable to detect and correct defects in the product or in its installation, which could result in loss of sales or delays in market acceptance. New or enhanced products and services may not satisfy customer preferences and potential product failures may cause customers to reject our products. As a result, these products and services may not achieve market acceptance and our brand image could suffer. In addition, our competitors may introduce superior products or business strategies, impairing our brand and the desirability of our products and services, which may cause customers to defer or forego purchases of our products and services, and impacting our ability to charge monthly service fees. If our competitors implement new technologies before we are able to implement them, those competitors may be able to provide more effective products than ours, possibly at lower prices. Any delay or failure in the introduction of new or enhanced solutions could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, the markets for our products and services may not develop or grow as we anticipate. The failure of our technology, products, or services to gain market acceptance, the potential for product defects, or the obsolescence of our products and services could significantly reduce our revenue, increase our operating costs, or otherwise materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

 

In addition to developing and acquiring new technologies and introducing new offerings, we may need, from time to time, to phase out outdated and unsuitable technologies and services. If we are unable to do so on a cost-effective basis, we could experience further losses.

 

We sell our products and services in highly competitive markets, including the home automation market, which may result in pressure on our profit margins and limit our ability to maintain or increase the market share of our products and services.

 

Our industry is highly fragmented and subject to significant competition and pricing pressures. We experience significant competitive pricing pressures on installation, monitoring, and service fees.

 

In many cases, we face competition for direct sales from our independent, third-party authorized dealers, who may offer installation for considerably less than we do in particular markets. We believe that the monitoring and service fees we offer are generally competitive with rates offered by other security service providers. We face competition from other providers such as cable and telecommunications companies that may have existing access to and relationship with subscribers and highly recognized brands, which may have increased awareness of their security/automation offerings relative to ours, have access to greater capital and resources than us, and may spend significantly more on advertising, marketing, and promotional resources, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to drive awareness and demand for our products and services. In particular, these companies may be able to offer subscribers a lower price by bundling their services. It is possible that one or more of our competitors could develop a significant technological advantage over us that allows them to provide additional services or better quality services or lower prices, which could put us at a competitive disadvantage. Continued pricing pressure, improvements in technology, and shifts in customer preferences towards self-monitoring or DIY could adversely impact our customer base and/or pricing structure and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

We rely on a significant number of our customers remaining with us as customers for long periods of time.

 

We operate our business with the goal of retaining customers for long periods of time in order to recoup our initial investment in new customers, and we generally achieve cash flow break-even in less than three years. Accordingly, our long-term profitability is dependent on long customer tenure. This requires that we minimize our rate of customer disconnects, or attrition. One reason for disconnects is when customers relocate and do not reconnect. Customer relocations are impacted by changes in the housing market. We are susceptible to changes in the business economy, housing market, and business and consumer discretionary income, which may inhibit our ability to sustain customer base growth rates and impact our results of operations. Other factors that can increase disconnects include problems experienced with our product or service quality, customer service, customer non-pay, unfavorable general economic conditions, and the preference for lower pricing of competitors’ products and services over ours. If we fail to keep our customers for a sufficiently long period of time, our profitability, business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially adversely affected.

 

If we experience significantly higher rates of customer revenue attrition than we anticipate, we may be required to change the estimated useful lives and/or the accelerated method of depreciation and amortization related to accounts associated with our security monitoring customers, increasing our depreciation and amortization expense or causing asset impairment.

 

We amortize the costs of our acquired and dealer-generated contracts and related customer relationships based on the estimated life of the customer relationships. We similarly depreciate the cost of our direct channel subscriber system assets and deferred subscriber acquisition costs. If attrition rates rise significantly, we may be required to accelerate the amortization of expenses related to such contracts and the depreciation/amortization of our subscriber system assets/deferred subscriber acquisition costs or to impair such assets, which could cause a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Our reputation as a service provider of high quality offerings may be materially adversely affected by product defects or shortfalls in customer service.

 

Our business depends on our reputation and ability to maintain good relationships with our subscribers, dealers and local regulators, among others. Our reputation may be harmed either through product defects, such as the failure of one or more of our subscribers’ alarm systems, or shortfalls in customer service. Subscribers generally judge our performance through their interactions with the staff at the monitoring and customer care centers, dealers, and technicians who perform on-site maintenance services. Any failure to meet subscribers’ expectations in such customer service areas could cause an increase in attrition rates or make it difficult to recruit new subscribers. Any harm to our reputation or subscriber relationships caused by the actions of our dealers, personnel, or third-party service providers or any other factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

 

General economic conditions can affect our business, and we are susceptible to changes in the business economy, housing market, and business and consumer discretionary income, which may inhibit our ability to sustain customer base growth rates and impact our results of operations.

 

Demand for alarm monitoring services and home automation systems is affected by the general economy, the business environment, and the turnover in the housing market, among other things. Downturns in the rate of the sale of new and existing homes, which we believe drives a substantial portion of our new customer volume in any given year, would reduce opportunities to make sales of new security and home automation systems and services and reduce opportunities to take over existing security and home automation systems. Recoveries in the housing market increase the occurrence of relocations, which may lead to customers disconnecting service and not contracting with us in their new homes. 

 

Further, the alarm monitoring business is dependent, in part, on national, regional, and local economic conditions. In particular, where disposable income available for discretionary spending is reduced (such as by higher housing, energy, interest or other costs, or where the actual or perceived wealth of customers has decreased because of circumstances such as lower residential real estate values, increased foreclosure rates, inflation, increased tax rates or other economic disruptions), the alarm monitoring business could experience increased attrition rates and reduced customer demand. No assurance can be given that we will be able to continue acquiring quality alarm monitoring contracts or that we will not experience higher attrition rates. Changes in individualized economic circumstances could cause current security alarm and home automation customers to disconnect our services in an effort to reduce their monthly spending, or such customers could default on their remaining contractual obligations to us.

 

Our long-term revenue growth rate depends on installations and new contracts exceeding disconnects. If customer disconnects and defaults increase, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows could be materially adversely affected

Failure to successfully upgrade and maintain the security of our information and technology networks, including personally identifiable information and other data, could materially adversely affect us.

 

We are dependent on information technology networks and systems, including Internet and Internet-based or “cloud” computing services, to collect, process, transmit, and store electronic information. We are currently implementing modifications and upgrades to these information technology systems, including making changes to legacy systems, replacing legacy systems with successor systems with new functionality, and implementing new systems. There are inherent costs and risks associated with replacing and changing these systems and implementing new systems, including potential disruption of our sales, operations and customer service functions, potential disruption of our internal control structure, substantial capital expenditures, additional administration and operating expenses, retention of sufficiently skilled personnel to implement and operate the new systems, demands on management time, and other risks and costs of delays or difficulties in transitioning to new systems or of integrating new systems into our current systems. In addition, our information technology system implementations may not result in productivity improvements at a level that outweighs the costs of implementation, or at all. The implementation of new information technology systems may also cause disruptions in our business operations and have a material adverse effect on our business, cash flows, and results of operations.

 

Due to the ever-changing threat landscape, our products may be subject to potential vulnerabilities of wireless and IoT devices and our services may be subject to certain risks, including hacking or other unauthorized access to control or view systems and obtain private information.

 

Companies that collect and retain sensitive and confidential information are under increasing attack by cyber-criminals around the world. While we implement security measures within our products, services, operations and systems, those measures may not prevent cybersecurity breaches, the access, capture or alteration of information by criminals, the exposure or exploitation of potential security vulnerabilities, distributed denial of service attacks, the installation of malware or ransomware, acts of vandalism, computer viruses, misplaced data or data loss that could be detrimental to our reputation, business, financial condition, and results of operations. Third parties, including our partners and vendors, could also be a source of security risk to us in the event of a failure of their own products, components, networks, security systems, and infrastructure. In addition, we cannot be certain that advances in criminal capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography, or other developments will not compromise or breach the technology protecting the networks that access our products and services.

 

A significant actual or perceived (whether or not valid) theft, loss, fraudulent use or misuse of customer, employee, or other personally identifiable data, whether by us, our partners and vendors, or other third parties, or as a result of employee error or malfeasance or otherwise, non-compliance with applicable industry standards or our contractual or other legal obligations regarding such data, or a violation of our privacy and information security policies with respect to such data, could result in costs, fines, litigation, or regulatory actions against us. Such an event could additionally result in unfavorable publicity and therefore materially and adversely affect the market’s perception of the security and reliability of our services and our credibility and reputation with our customers, which may lead to customer dissatisfaction and could result in lost sales and increased customer revenue attrition.

 

In addition, we depend on our information technology infrastructure for business-to-business and business-to-consumer electronic commerce. Security breaches of, or sustained attacks against, this infrastructure could create system disruptions and shutdowns that could negatively impact our operations. Increasingly, our products and services are accessed through the Internet, and security breaches in connection with the delivery of our services via the Internet may affect us and could be detrimental to our reputation, business, operating results, and financial condition. We continue to invest in new and emerging technology and other solutions to protect our network and information systems, but there can be no assurance that these investments and solutions will prevent any of the risks described above. While we maintain cyber liability insurance that  provides both third-party liability and first-party insurance coverages, our insurance may not be sufficient to protect against all of our losses from any future disruptions or breaches of our systems or other event as described above. 

 

We depend on third-party providers and suppliers for components of our security and automation systems, third-party software licenses for our products and services, and third-party providers to transmit signals to our monitoring facilities and provide other services to our subscribers. Any failure or interruption in products or services provided by these third parties could harm our ability to operate our business.

 

The components for the security and automation systems that we install are manufactured by third parties. We are therefore susceptible to interruptions in supply and to the receipt of components that do not meet our standards. Any financial or other difficulties our providers face may have negative effects on our business. We exercise little control over our suppliers, which increases our vulnerability to problems with the products and services they provide. While we strive to utilize dual-sourcing methods to allow similar hardware components for our security systems to be interchangeable in order to minimize the risk of a disruption from a single supplier, any interruption in supply could cause delays in installations and repairs and the loss of current and potential customers. Also, if a previously installed component were found to be defective, we might not be able to recover the costs associated with its repair or replacement across our installed customer base, and the diversion of technical personnel to address the defect could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

We rely on third-party software for key automation features in certain of our offerings, and on the interoperation of that software with our own, such as our mobile applications and related platform. We could experience service disruptions if customer usage patterns for such offerings exceed, or are otherwise outside of, design parameters for the system and the ability for us or our third-party provider to make corrections. Such interruptions in the provision of services could result in our inability to meet customer demand, damage our reputation and customer relationships, and materially and adversely affect our business. We also rely on certain software technology that we license from third parties and use in our products and services to perform key functions and provide critical functionality. For example, we license the software platform for our monitoring operations from third parties. Because a number of our products and services incorporate technology developed and maintained by third parties, we are, to a certain extent, dependent upon such third parties’ ability to update, maintain, or enhance their current products and services, to ensure that their products are free of defects or security vulnerabilities, to develop new products and services on a timely and cost-effective basis, and to respond to emerging industry standards, customer preferences, and other technological changes. Further, these third-party technology licenses may not always be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If our agreements with third-party vendors are not renewed or the third-party software becomes obsolete, is incompatible with future versions of our products or services, or otherwise fails to address our needs, we cannot provide assurance that we would be able to replace the functionality provided by the third-party software with technology from alternative providers. Furthermore, even if we obtain licenses to alternative software products or services that provide the functionality we need, we may be required to replace hardware installed at our monitoring centers and at our customers’ sites, including security system control panels and peripherals, in order to execute our integration of or migration to alternative software products. Any of these factors could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

 

We also rely on various third-party telecommunications providers and signal processing centers to transmit and communicate signals to our monitoring facility in a timely and consistent manner. These telecommunications providers and signal processing centers could fail to transmit or communicate these signals to the monitoring facility for many reasons, including disruptions from fire, natural disasters, weather, transmission interruption, malicious acts, or terrorism. The failure of one or more of these telecommunications providers or signal processing centers to transmit and communicate signals to the monitoring facility in a timely manner could affect our ability to provide alarm monitoring, home automation, and interactive services to our subscribers. We also rely on third-party technology companies to provide home automation and interactive services to our subscribers. These technology companies could fail to provide these services consistently, or at all, which could result in our inability to meet customer demand and damage our reputation. There can be no assurance that third-party telecommunications providers, signal processing centers, and other technology companies will continue to transmit and communicate signals to the monitoring facility or provide home automation and interactive services to subscribers without disruption. Any such disruption, particularly one of a prolonged duration, could have a material adverse effect on our business. See also “—Shifts in our customers’ choice of, or telecommunications providers’ support for, telecommunications services and equipment could materially adversely affect our business and require significant capital expenditures” with respect to risks associated with changes in signal transmissions.

 

Internal system or service failures could disrupt our business and impair our ability to effectively provide our services and products to our customers, which could damage our reputation and adversely affect our revenues and profitability.

 

Any system or service disruptions, on our hosted Cloud infrastructure or those caused by ongoing projects to improve our information technology systems and the delivery of services, if not anticipated and appropriately mitigated, could have a material adverse effect on our business including, among other things, an adverse effect on our ability to bill our customers for work performed on our contracts, collect the amounts that have been billed and produce accurate financial statements in a timely manner. We are also subject to systems failures, including network, software or hardware failures, whether caused by us, third-party service providers, cyber security threats, natural disasters, power shortages, terrorist attacks or other events, which could cause loss of data and interruptions or delays in our business, cause us to incur remediation costs, subject us to claims and damage our reputation. In addition, the failure or disruption of our communications or utilities could cause us to interrupt or suspend our operations or otherwise adversely affect our business. Our property and business interruption insurance may be inadequate to compensate us for all losses that may occur as a result of any system or operational failure or disruption and, as a result, our future results could be adversely affected.

 

Customer systems failures could damage our reputation and adversely affect our revenues and profitability.

 

Many of the systems and networks that we develop, install and maintain for our customers on premises or host on our infrastructure involve managing and protecting personal information and information relating to national security and other sensitive government functions. While we have programs designed to comply with relevant privacy and security laws and restrictions, if a system or network that we develop, install or maintain were to fail or experience a security breach or service interruption, whether caused by us, third-party service providers, cyber security threats or other events, we may experience loss of revenue, remediation costs or face claims for damages or contract termination. Any such event could cause serious harm to our reputation and prevent us from having access to or being eligible for further work on such systems and networks. Our errors and omissions liability insurance may be inadequate  to compensate us for all of the damages that we may incur and, as a result, our future results could be adversely affected.

We have limited operational history in an emerging industry, making it difficult to accurately predict and forecast business operations.

 

As we have limited operations in our business and have yet to earn any significant revenue, it is extremely difficult to make accurate predictions and forecasts on our finances. This is compounded by the fact that we operate in the technology industry, which is rapidly transforming. There is no guarantee that our products or services will remain attractive to potential and current users as these industries undergo rapid change, or that potential customers will utilize our services.

 

We have yet to achieve a profit and may not achieve a profit in the near future, if at all.

 

We have not yet produced a net profit and may not in the near future, if at all. While we expect our revenue to grow, we have not achieved profitability and cannot be certain that we will be able to sustain our current growth rate or realize sufficient revenue to achieve profitability. Further, many of our competitors have a significantly larger user base and revenue stream but have yet to achieve profitability. Our ability to continue as a going concern may be dependent upon raising capital from financing transactions, increasing revenue throughout the year and keeping operating expenses below our revenue levels in order to achieve positive cash flows, none of which can be assured.

 

We will require additional capital to support business growth, and this capital might not be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

 

We intend to continue to make investments to support our business growth and may require additional funds to respond to business challenges, including the need to update existing bitcoin mining hardware, improve our operating infrastructure or acquire complementary businesses and technologies. Accordingly, we will need to engage in continued equity or debt financings to secure additional funds. If we raise additional funds through future issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of our common stock. Any debt financing we secure in the future could involve restrictive covenants relating to our capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, our ability to continue to support our business growth and to respond to business challenges could be impaired, and our business may be harmed. 

 

We may be unable to manage growth, which may impact our potential profitability.

 

Successful implementation of our business strategy requires us to manage our growth. Growth could place an increasing strain on our management and financial resources. To manage growth effectively, we will need to:

 

●

Establish definitive business strategies, goals and objectives;

 

●

Maintain a system of management controls; and

 

●

Attract and retain qualified personnel, as well as develop, train, and manage management-level and other employees.

 

If we fail to manage our growth effectively, our business, financial condition, or operating results could be materially harmed, and our stock price may decline.

 

Natural disasters and geo-political events could adversely affect our business.

 

Natural disasters, including hurricanes, cyclones, typhoons, tropical storms, floods, earthquakes and tsunamis, weather conditions, including winter storms, droughts and tornadoes, whether as a result of climate change or otherwise, and geo-political events, including civil unrest or terrorist attacks, that affect us, or other service providers could adversely affect our business.

The net loss in 2024 included the increase in reserve for judgement lien of $ (350,561) Currently, operating costs exceed revenue because as the Company is still in the development stage. We cannot assure when or if revenue will exceed operating costs.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We had cash of $120,957 at March 31, 2024, compared with cash of $65,449 at March 31, 2023.

 

During the 3 months ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023,we used cash of $363,008 and $350,385 respectively, for operating activities. A portion of the funds was used to pay staffing costs, general and administrative costs, legal fees, and product development.

Plan of Operations

 

Our plan of operation for the 12 months following the commencement of this Offering is as follows:

 

1. Plan for retail sales in the United States in next 12 months: Our plan is engage a leading brand marketing agency to accelerate the marketing of the Company’s products and to move into the B2B business sector for the bulk sale of the Company’s products directly to businesses for use by their employees for improved speed and security over internet connectivity, especially for those employees who must mostly travel for business.

 

2. Expand the development of the integration of 5G/LTE connectivity for new B2B business customers through our proprietary and secure modem, coupled with a 5G compatible antenna and our companion. 5G Dongle.

Currently, we are also developing certain devices in concert with other compatible companies, including prospective customers and business partners, including potentially bringing to market an E-Bike with a built-in tracker to monitor the location of the E-Bike at any time;

 

To gain customers for our products we must first provide working prototypes, previously certified that fully meet the requirements of our customers.. This includes obtaining FCC certification through the testing and certification of our products from an independent testing laboratory.. Accordingly, all of these costs fall under “product development” from the concept, design and building of prototypes, through to the cost of certification and acceptance by the customer. That is why a portion of the proceeds of this Offering has been allocated towards product development.

 

Through our subsidiary, Tri Cascade, Inc. we have been in business developing products for approximately 10 years with a CEO having significant experience and expertise in the field of LTE telecom technology. We believe that the modest staffing that we presently have, coupled with resources available from our business partners both in the U.S and in Taiwan, is sufficient to sustain operations. 

 

In our opinion, the proceeds from this Offering may not fully satisfy our cash requirements and we anticipate it will be necessary to raise additional funds in the next 12-18 months to supplement our plan of operations. Accordingly, if we are unable to satisfy our cash requirements through sales and the proceeds from this Offering alone, we may need to attempt to raise additional capital through the sale of additional securities in additional offerings, or through other methods of obtaining financing such as through loans or other equity investment. We cannot assure that we will have sufficient capital to finance our growth and business operations or that such capital will be available on terms that are favorable to us or at all. We are currently incurring operating deficits that are expected to continue for the foreseeable future.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

We have identified the policies outlined below as critical to our business operations and an understanding of our results of operations. The list is not intended to be a comprehensive list of all of our accounting policies. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, with no need for management’s judgment in their application. The impact and any associated risks related to these policies on our business operations is discussed throughout Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation where such policies affect our reported and expected financial results. Note that our preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates.

 

Income taxes are one such critical accounting policy. Income taxes are recorded on an accrual basis of accounting based on tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. A tax position is defined as a position in a previously filed tax return or a position expected to be taken in a future tax filing that is reflected in measuring current or deferred income tax assets and liabilities. Tax positions are recognized only when it is more likely than not (i.e., likelihood of greater than 50%), based on technical merits, that the position would be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not threshold are measured using a probability-weighted approach as the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. Income taxes are accounted for using an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns. A valuation allowance is established to reduce deferred tax assets if all or some portion, of such assets will more than likely not be realized. Should they occur, our policy is to classify interest and penalties related to tax positions as income tax expense. Since our inception, no such interest or penalties have been incurred.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue is recognized when product sold is delivered and there is reasonable expectation of payment by the customer.

 

The Company does not anticipate any material reclassification, merger, consolidation, or purchase or sale of a significant amount of assets not in the ordinary course of business, in the next 12 months.

Presently, the Company has a staff of nine, consisting of management, accounting, engineering and project management, located partly in Irvine, CA and partly in Taipei, Taiwan.

 

Intellectual Property

 

We may rely on a combination of patent, trademark, copyright, and trade secret laws in the United States as well as confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect our proprietary technology, databases, and our brand. Despite this reliance, we believe the following factors are more essential to establishing and maintaining a competitive advantage:

 

●

the statistical and technological skills of our service operations and research and development teams;

 

●

the expertise and knowledge of our service operations and research and development teams;

 

●

the real-time connectivity of our service offerings;

 

●

the continued expansion of our proprietary technology; and

 

●

a continued focus on the improved financial results of our clients.

 

We have a policy of requiring key employees, consultants and business partners to execute confidentiality agreements upon the commencement of an employment or consulting relationship with us.

In addition, we have a policy of requiring individuals and entities with which we discuss potential business relationships to sign non-disclosure agreements. Our agreements with clients include confidentiality and non-disclosure provisions.

 

Legal Proceedings

 

We may from time to time be involved in various claims and legal proceedings of a nature we believe are normal and incidental to our business. These matters may include product liability, intellectual property, employment, personal injury cause by our employees, and other general claims. We are not presently a party to any legal proceedings that, in the opinion of our management, are likely to have a material adverse effect on our business. Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

Our board of directors currently consists of two directors. None of our directors are “independent” as defined in Rule 4200 of FINRA’s listing standards. We may appoint additional independent directors to our board of directors in the future, particularly to serve on committees should they be established.

 

Committees of the Board of Directors

 

We may establish an audit committee, compensation committee, a nominating and governance committee and other committees to our Board of Directors in the future, but have not done so as of the date of this Offering Circular. Until such committees are established, matters that would otherwise be addressed by such committees will be acted upon by the Board of Directors.

 

Director Compensation

 

We currently do not pay our directors any compensation for their services as board members, with the exception of reimbursing and board related expenses. In the future, we may compensate directors, particularly those who are not also employees and who act as independent board members, on either a per meeting or fixed compensation basis.

 

Limitation of Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors

 

Our Bylaws limit the liability of directors and officers of the Company to the maximum extent permitted by Utah law. The Bylaws state that the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to, or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or an officer of the Company or such director or officer is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, partner, member, manager, trustee, employee or agent of another company or of a partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.

 

The Company believes that indemnification under our Bylaws covers at least negligence and gross negligence on the part of indemnified parties. The Company also may secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in connection with their services to us, regardless of whether our Bylaws permit such indemnification.

 

The Company may also enter into separate indemnification agreements with its directors and officers, in addition to the indemnification provided for in our Bylaws. These agreements, among other things, may provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers for certain expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by a director or executive officer in any action or proceeding arising out of such person’s services as one of our directors or officers, or rendering services at our request, to any of its subsidiaries or any other company or enterprise. We believe that these provisions and agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.

 

There is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors or officers as to which indemnification is required or permitted, and we are not aware of any threatened litigation or proceeding that may result in a claim for indemnification.

 

For additional information on indemnification and limitations on liability of our directors and officers, please review the Company’s Bylaws, which are attached to this Offering Circular.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

During the last two full fiscal years and the current fiscal year or any currently proposed transaction, there is no transaction involving the Company, in which the amount involved exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of the Company’s total assets at year-end for its last three fiscal years.

 

Disclosure of Conflicts of Interest

 

There are no conflicts of interest between the Company and any of its officers or directors

 

Stock Options

 

The Company’s stockholders have approved a 2018 Stock Option Plan, as previously adopted by our Board of Directors (the “Plan”). Under this Plan, our officers, directors, and/or key employees and/or consultants can receive incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options to purchase shares of our Common Stock. To date, no options have been issued.

 

With respect to incentive stock options, the Plan provides that the exercise price of each such option must be at least equal to 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date that such option is granted. The Plan requires that all such options have an expiration date not later than that date which is one day before the tenth anniversary of the date of the grant of such options (or the fifth anniversary of the date of grant in the case of 10% stockholders). However, with certain limited exceptions, in the event that the option holder ceases to be associated with the Company or engages in or is involved with any business similar to ours, such option holder’s incentive options immediately terminate.

 

Pursuant to the provisions of the Plan, the aggregate fair market value, determined as of the date(s) of grant, for which incentive stock options are first exercisable by an option holder during any one calendar year cannot exceed $100,000.

 

Bonus Plan for Executive Officers

 

The Company’s Board of Directors has established an annual Bonus Plan for Executive Officers (the “Bonus Plan.”) Under the Bonus Plan, a Committee of the Board of Directors sets performance targets for key employees who are or may become executive officers. Such executives are eligible for a bonus only if they meet the performance standards set in advance by the Committee. Aggregate bonuses may not exceed ten percent of income before taxes and bonuses may not exceed $1 million per employee.

 

Management Stock Bonus Plan

 

Our Management Stock Bonus Plan provides that the Company shall establish a reserve of shares of Common Stock to be awarded to eligible salaried officers and directors. The Management Stock Bonus Plan Committee, composed of not less than three members, administers the Plan . The Board of Directors must review actions of the Committee. The Plan awards restricted stock to key executives. During the restricted period, the owner of the stock may not transfer the stock without first offering the Company the opportunity to buy back the stock at its issue price. In the first year of the restriction period, the Company has the right to buy back all of the awarded stock. In the second year, the Company has the right to buy back 75% of the awarded stock. After two years and until the end of the restriction period, a maximum of three years, the Company has the right to buy back 50% of the awarded stock. No shares have been issued under the plan.

 

Indemnification Agreements

 

We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors, executive officers and other key employees. The indemnification agreements and our amended and restated By-Laws will require us to indemnify our directors to the fullest extent permitted by Utah law.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), may be permitted to directors, executive officers or persons controlling us, we have been informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Parties

 

We have adopted a related-party transactions policy under which our executive officers, directors, nominees for election as a director, beneficial owners of more than 5% of any class of our Common Stock, and any members of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons are not permitted to enter into a related-party transaction with us without the consent of our audit committee. If the related party is, or is associated with, a member of our audit committee, the transaction must be reviewed and approved by another independent body of our Board of Directors, such as our governance committee. Any request for us to enter into a transaction with a related party in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and such party would have a direct or indirect interest must first be presented to our audit committee for review, consideration and approval. If advance approval of a related-party transaction was not feasible or was not obtained, the related-party transaction must be submitted to the audit committee as soon as reasonably practicable, at which time the audit committee shall consider whether to ratify and continue, amend and ratify, or terminate or rescind such related-party transaction. All of the transactions described above were reviewed and considered by, and were entered into with the approval of, or ratification by, our Board of Directors.

 

Disclosure of Conflicts of Interest

 

There are no conflicts of interest between the Company and any of its officers or directors.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

 

The Common Stock

 

We are authorized to issue 17,500,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.0001 par value. The holders of Common Stock are entitled to equal dividends and distributions, with respect to the Common Stock when, as, and if declared by the Board of Directors from funds legally available for such dividends. No holder of Common Stock has any preemptive right to subscribe for any of our stock nor are any shares subject to redemption. Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, and after payment of creditors and any amounts payable to senior securities, the assets will be divided pro rata on a share-for-share basis among the holders of the shares of Common Stock. All shares of Common Stock now outstanding upon completion of this Offering and conversion of any Preferred Stock, are, and will be, fully paid, validly issued and non-assessable.

 

Holders of our Common Stock do not have cumulative voting rights, so that the holders of more than 50% of the shares voting for the election of directors will be able to elect 100% of the directors if they choose to do so, and in that event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any members to the Board of Directors.

 

The Company has never paid any dividends to shareholders of our Common Stock. The declaration in the future of any cash or stock dividends will depend upon our capital requirements and financial position, general economic conditions, and other pertinent factors. We presently intend not to pay any cash or stock dividends in the foreseeable future. Management intends to reinvest earnings, if any, in the development and expansion of our business. No dividend may be paid on the Common Stock until all Preferred Stock dividends are paid in full.

 

Preferred Stock

 

We are authorized by our Articles of Incorporation to issue a maximum of 3,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock. This Preferred Stock may be in one or more series and containing such rights, privileges and limitations, including voting rights, conversion privileges and/or redemption rights, as may, from time to time, be determined by our Board of Directors. Preferred stock may be issued in the future in connection with acquisitions, financings or such other matters as the Board of Directors deems to be appropriate. In the event that any such shares of Preferred Stock shall be issued, a Certificate of Designation, setting forth the series of such Preferred Stock and the relative rights, privileges and limitations with respect thereto, shall be filed. The effect of such Preferred Stock is that our Board of Directors alone, within the bounds and subject to the federal securities laws and the Utah Law, may be able to authorize the issuance of Preferred Stock which could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our Company without further action by the stockholders and might adversely affect the voting and other rights of holders of Common Stock. The issuance of Preferred Stock with voting and conversion rights also may adversely affect the voting power of the holders of Common Stock, including the loss of voting control to others.

 

The Board of Directors is expressly vested with the authority to divide any or all of the Preferred Stock into series and to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of the shares of each series so established, provided, however, that the rights and preferences of the various series may vary only with respect to: (a) the rate of dividend; (b) whether the shares may be called and, if so, the call price and the terms and conditions of call; (c) the amount payable upon the shares in the event of voluntary and involuntary liquidation; (d) sinking fund provisions, if any for the call or redemption of the shares; I the terms and conditions, if any, on which the shares may be converted; (f) voting rights; and (g) whether the shares will be cumulative, noncumulative or partially cumulative as to dividends and the dates from which any cumulative dividends are to accumulate.

 

The Board of Directors shall exercise the foregoing authority by adopting a resolution setting forth the designation of each series and the number of shares therein, and fixing and determining the relative rights and preferences thereof. The Board of Directors may make any change in the designations, terms, limitations or relative rights or preferences of any series in the same manner, so long as no shares of such series are outstanding at such time.

 

Within the limits and restrictions, if any, stated in any resolution of the Board of Directors originally fixing the number of shares constituting any series, the Board of Directors is authorized to increase or decrease (but not below the number of shares of such series then outstanding) the number of shares of any series subsequent to the issue of shares of such series. In case the number of shares of any series shall be so decreased, the share constituting such decrease shall resume the status which they had prior to the adoption of the resolution originally fixing the number of shares of such series. 

Existing Preferred Stock

 

Designations, Preferences. Rights And Limitations of Series A Preferred Stock 

 

Conversion Rights. If at least one share of Series A Preferred Stock is issued and outstanding, then the total aggregate issued shares of Series A Preferred  Stock at any given time, regardless of their number, shall be convertible into the number of shares of Common Stock which equals four times the sum of: i) the total number of shares of Common Stock which are issued and outstanding and outstanding at the time of conversion, plus ii) the total number of shares of Series B and Series C Preferred Stocks which are issued and outstanding at the time of conversion.

 

Each individual share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be convertible into the number of shares of Common Stock equal to four times the sum of: all shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding at time of conversion plus all shares of Series B and Series C Preferred Stocks issued and outstanding at time of conversion, divided by the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding at the time of conversion.

 

Issuance. Shares of Series A Preferred Stock may only be issued in exchange for the partial or full retirement of debt held by management, employees or consultants, or a as directed by a majority vote of the Board of Directors. The number of Shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be issued to each qualified person (member of management, employee or consultant) holding a Note shall be determined by the following formula:

 

For retirement of debt, the number or shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be issued shall be the sum of the discreet notes and other obligations owed lender (holder) which are being retired.

 

Voting Rights. a. If at least one share of Series A Preferred. Stock is issued and outstanding, then the total aggregate issued shares of Series A Preferred Stock at any given time, regardless of their number shall have voting rights equal to four times the sum of: i) the total number of shares of Common Stock which are issued and outstanding at the time of voting, plus ii) the total number of shares of Series B and Series C Preferred Stocks which are issued and outstanding at the time of voting.

  

Designations, Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series B Preferred Stock

 

Designation And Number of Shares 3,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock no par value per share (the “Preferred Stock”), are authorized (the “Series B Preferred Stock” or “Series B Preferred Shares “).

 

Dividends. The holders of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends when, as, and if declared by the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion.

 

Liquidation Rights. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary’ or involuntary before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any stock ranking junior to the Series B Preferred Stock. The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation an amount equal to $1.00 per share or in the event of an aggregate subscription by a single subscriber for Series B Preferred Stock in excess of $100,000, $0.997 per share (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combination splits, recapitalizations, and the like with respect to such shares) (the “Preference Value”), plus all declared but unpaid dividends, for each share of Series B Preferred Stock held by them. After the payment of the full applicable Preference Value of each share of the Series B Preferred Stock as set forth herein, the remaining assets of the Corporation legally available for distribution, if any, shall be distributed ratably to holders of the Corporation’s Common Stock.

 

Conversion and Anti-Dilution. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be convertible at $0.001 per share (the ’’Series B Preferred’’), at any time, and/or from time to time, into the number of shares of the Corporation’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) equal to the price of the Series B Preferred Stock:, divided by the par value  of the Series B Preferred, subject to adjustment as may be determined by the Board of Directors from time to time (the “Conversion Rate”). For example, assuming a $2.50 price per share of Series B Preferred Stock, and a par value of $0.0001 per share for Series B Preferred each share of Series B Preferred Stock would be convertible into 2,500 shares of Common Stock. Such conversion shall be deemed to be effective on the business day (the “Conversion Date”) following the receipt by the Corporation of written notice from the holder of the Series B Preferred Stock of the holder’s intention to convert the shares of Series B Stock, together with the holder’s stock certificate or certificates evidencing the Series B Preferred Stock to be converted.

Promptly after the Conversion Date, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to such holder a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable to the holder pursuant to the holder’s conversion of Series B Preferred Shares in accordance with the provisions of this Section. The stock certificate(s) evidencing the Common Stock shall be issued with a restrictive legend indicating that it was issued in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and that it cannot be transferred unless it is so registered, or an exemption from registration is available, in the opinion of counsel to the Corporation. The Common Stock shall be issued in the name of the person who is the holder of the Series B Preferred Stock unless, the opinion of counsel to the Corporation, such transfer can be made in compliance with applicable securities law. The person in whose name the certificate(s) of Common Stock are so registered shall be treated as a holder of shares of Common Stock of the Corporation on the date the Common Stock certificates(s) are so issued.

 

All shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Shares as provided herein shall be duly and validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable. Effective as of the Conversion Date, such converted Series B Preferred Shares shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights of the holder with respect to such shares shall immediately terminate except the right to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion.

 

The Corporation covenants that within 30 days of receipt of a conversion notice from any holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock wherein which such conversion would create more shares of Common Stock than is authorized by the Corporation will increase the authorized number of shares of Common Stock sufficient to satisfy such holder of shares of Series B submitting such conversion notice.

 

Shares of Series B Preferred Stock anti-dilutive to reverse splits, and therefore in the case of a reverse split, are convertible to the number of Common Shares after the reverse split as would have been equal to ratio established in Section 3.8(a) prior to the reverse split. The conversion ratio of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, however, would increase proportionally in the case of forward splits, and may not be diluted by in reverse split, following a forward split.

 

Voting Rights. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall have two thousand (2,000) votes for any election or other vote placed before the shareholders of the Company.

 

Price. The initial price of each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be $2.50. The price of each share of Series B Preferred Stock may he changed either through a majority vote of the Board of Directors through a resolution at a meeting of the Board, or through a resolution passed at in Action Without Meeting of the unanimous Board, until such time as a listed secondary and/or listed public market develops for the shares.

 

Lock-Up Restrictions on Conversion. Shares of Series B Preferred Stock may be converted into shares of Common Stock for a period of; a) six (6) months after purchase, if the Company voluntarily or involuntarily files public reports pursuant to Section 12 or 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; or b) twelve (12) months if the Company does not file such public reports. 

DIVIDEND POLICY 

 

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock. We currently intend to retain any future earnings for use in the operation of our business and do not intend to declare or pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any further determination to pay dividends on our capital stock will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors, subject to applicable laws, and will depend on our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, general business conditions, and other factors that our Board of Directors considers relevant.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

 

Accounting Treatment Following the Acquisition of TriCascade,Inc.

 

Following the acquisition of Tri Cascade, Inc., which closed as of April 1,2017 through the cashless exchange of stock, for accounting purposes the consolidated results of Tri Cascade, Inc. are being treated as the continuing reporting entity and the prior comparative financial results have been restated accordingly. Accordingly, these consolidated financial reports and been prepared as if Tri Cascade, Inc. is the successor entity regarding the Company’s reporting obligations. Therefore, the consolidated financial statements filed subsequent to this transaction include the historical financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of Tri Cascade, Inc. for all periods presented through and including March 31, 2024. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Saddle Ranch Media, its subsidiaries Tri Cascade, Inc., from March 22, 2019 its additional subsidiary, Smarthings & Co. and from October 1, 2023 its 55% ownership of Allied Rich LLC.

 

Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements

 

Preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash includes demand deposits. At March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 none of the Company’s cash balances were in excess of federally insured limits.

 

Prepaid expense

 

Prepaid expense at March 31, 2024 and at December 31, 2023 represents the Company’s prepaid OTC Markets subscription fee.

Impairment

 

The Company’s management periodically reviews for the impairment of its assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be realizable. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than it’s carrying amount. With the advent of 5G, management decided to amortize prior product development costs and related goodwill thereon as a conservative approach to the carrying value of the Company’s assets. While the majority of the Company’s prior product development acts as the design and platform on which enhanced 5G products can and will be further developed, it was nevertheless believed prudent to amortize these “non-5G” prior costs at this time.

 

Fixed Assets

 

Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over a period of the shorter of the related applicable lease term or the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from 3 to 5 years.. Net of depreciation, the remaining balance of fixed assets at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $25,247 and $30,360, respectively.

 

Non-current Assets

 

Goodwill $ 3,343,731 – this represents the excess of the cost to acquire Tri Cascade, Inc. over the book value of the net assets acquired at that time and the excess of the cost to acquire the 55% interest in Allied Rich, LLC. over the book value of its net assets

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

The carrying amounts of the Company’s accounts payable, accrued expenses, and notes payable approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

 

Income taxes

 

Under ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes”, the Company is required to account for its income taxes through the establishment of a deferred tax asset or liability for the recognition of future deductible or taxable amounts and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax expense or benefit is recognized as a result of timing differences between the recognition of assets and liabilities for book and tax purposes during the year. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating losses, and tax credit carry forwards. A valuation allowance is established to reduce that deferred tax asset if it is “more likely than not” that the related tax benefits will not be realized. At this time, no provision for the payment of income taxes is required on the results of the Company’s operations through March 31, 2024. Accumulated net losses, on a consolidated basis, through March 31, 2024 totaled approximately $11 million.

 

Net Loss per Share

 

Net loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. The Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share.

3. Going Concern

 

Because the Company is presently (and has been) a developing telecom technology business, it has not been able to commence to create meaningful revenue until 2023. The Company has historically incurred losses since inception. There can be no assurance that the Company can reach, or will reach, profitability. Unless continued significant additional cash flows are raised by the Company (primarily from short-term bridge loans from Wen-Shone Shiau and from the sales of its common stock through Regulation A offerings), the Company could be in jeopardy of continuing operations. The Company continues to strive to generate significant revenue and improved cash flow, and has additionally received the assurance of continued short-term funding from Wen-Shone Shiau. No reserve has been made at this point in the event that the Company is not able to sustain operations or if short-term bridge financing is no longer provided.

 

4. Employee Stock Options

 

In recognition of the services provided by the key employees of the Company and of its subsidiary, Tri Cascade, Inc. and to provide an incentive to maximize the Company’s long term future revenue and shareholders’ value, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the issuance of stock options to such key employees on a total of 500,000,000 common shares, exercisable at $0.0005 per share, of which 200,000,000 common shares are exercisable after March 15, 2025 and 300,000,000 common shares are exercisable after May 26, 2025.

 

In addition, on March 27, 2024 the Company approved a stock option to Wen-Shone Shiau of 150,000,000 common shares exercisable at $0.00-2 per share at any tome after April 1, 2025 until its expiration on March 31, 2027.

 

5. Subsequent Events

 

Subsequent to March 31, 2024, and through the date of this filing, the Company received $120,000 as an additional short-term bridge loan from Wen-Shone Shiau to support the Company’s working capital needs.

 

On January 17, 2024 a Jury trial was commenced at the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Orange, and lasted through January 26, 2024, relating to an alleged employee wrongful termination. The Jury found in favor of the Plaintiff in certain aspects of her complaint and awarded damages in her favor totaling $355,978. A Judgement to that effect was issued on February 14, 2024. On May 10, 2024 the Company filed a Motion of Appeal and, while not agreeing or accepting the Judgement, the Company has reserved the additional amount of $350,561 as an “Other Expense” in its consolidated statement of income for the 3 months ended March 31, 2024 and reflects a reserve for judgement claim of $355,978 in current liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2024.

Prepaid expense at December 31, 2022 includes a cash deposit used to acquire a standby letter of credit for $50,000 which was provided to the Company’s telecom partner as a condition under which prepaid SIM cards will be provided for insertion in the Company’s various products pursuant to Tri-Cascade Inc’s connectivity Provider Agreement with T-Mobile USA. During the 3 months ended December 31, 2023 the letter of credit expired and the Company recovered the $50,000 deposit. The remaining balance of prepaid expense represents the Company’s prepaid OTC Markets subscription fee.

 

Impairment

 

The Company’s management periodically reviews for the impairment of its assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be realizable. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than it’s carrying amount. With the advent of 5G, management decided to amortize prior product development costs and related goodwill thereon as a conservative approach to the carrying value of the Company’s assets. While the majority of the Company’s prior product development acts as the design and platform on which enhanced 5G products can and will be further developed, it was nevertheless believed prudent to amortize these “non-5G” prior costs at this time.

 

Fixed Assets

 

Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over a period of the shorter of the related applicable lease term or the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from 3 to 5 years. During the year ended December 31, 2022 the Company acquired a motor vehicle and computer equipment at a combined cost of $ 70,014. Net of depreciation, the remaining balance of fixed assets at December 31, 2023 was $35,714.

 

Non-current Assets

 

Goodwill $ 2,699,781 – this represents the excess of the cost to acquire Tri Cascade, Inc. over the book value of the net assets acquired at that time.

Fair value of financial instruments

 

The carrying amounts of the Company’s accounts payable, accrued expenses, and notes payable approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. F8

 

Income taxes

 

Under ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes”, the Company is required to account for its income taxes through the establishment of a deferred tax asset or liability for the recognition of future deductible or taxable amounts and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax expense or benefit is recognized as a result of timing differences between the recognition of assets and liabilities for book and tax purposes during the year. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating losses, and tax credit carry forwards. A valuation allowance is established to reduce that deferred tax asset if it is “more likely than not” that the related tax benefits will not be realized. At this time, no provision for the payment of income taxes is required on the results of the Company’s operations through December 31, 2023. Accumulated net losses, on a consolidated basis, through December 31, 2023 totaled approximately $10.2 million.

 

Net Loss per Share

 

Net loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. The Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share.

 

Additional Paid in Capital

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2021 Tri Cascade, Inc., a subsidiary of Saddle Ranch Media, Inc., received $500,000 from a private investor for the purchase of 1 million Preferred Series “B” shares issued by Tri Cascade, Inc. The purchase has been documented through a formal Securities Purchase Agreement between the investor and Tri Cascade, Inc. This influx of funding will fuel the continuance of Tri Cascade’s operations, including but not limited to NB IoT product development, product testing and certification, and operating costs. The private investor has accepted a position on the board of directors and as Vice Chairman of Tri Cascade, Inc., as well as becoming the Company Secretary of Tri Cascade, inc. The investor also brings years of experience, expertise and relationships in the telecommunication and IoT technology industries. The receipt of the $ 500,000 was treated as an increase to additional paid in capital.

The Convertible Note and accrued interest thereon of $ 43,609 due Northbridge Financial Inc. was extinguished during the 3 months ended June 30, 2023.

 

3. Going Concern

 

Because the Company is presently (and has been) a developing IoT technology business, it has not yet created any substantial revenue. The Company has historically incurred losses since inception. There can be no assurance that the Company can reach, or will reach, profitability. Unless continued significant additional cash flows are raised by the Company, the Company could be in jeopardy of continuing operations. The Company seeks to continue to generate needed funds from the sale of Company stock through a Private Placement and/or a Regulation A offerings; and/or by entering into financing arrangements with third-parties including, but not limited to, possible off-balance sheet financing arrangements and joint ventures to finance its continued product development. No reserve has been made at this point in the event that the Company is not able to sustain operations.

 

4. Employee Stock Options

 

In recognition of the services provided by the key employees of the Company and of its subsidiary, Tri Cascade, Inc. and to provide an incentive to maximize the Company’s long term future revenue and shareholders’ value, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the issuance of stock options to such key employees on a total of 500,000,000 common shares, exercisable at $0.0005 per share, of which 200,000,000 common shares are exercisable after March 15, 2025 and 300,000,000 common shares are exercisable after May 26, 2025

 

5. Subsequent Events

 

Subsequent to December 31, 2023, and through the date of this filing, the Company received a total $250,000 as additional short-term bridge loans from Wen-Shone Shiau to support the Company’s working capital needs to market the sale of the VOS 5G Dongle on a retail basis through the shopping cart on the Company’s product website, through Amazon, Walmart and Smartegg.

 

On January 17, 2024 a Jury trial was commenced at the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Orange, and lasted through January 26, 2024, relating to an alleged employee wrongful termination. The Jury found in favor of the Plaintiff in certain aspects of her complaint and awarded damages in her favor totaling $355,473. A Judgement to that effect was issued by Plaintiff on February 14, 2024. On March 14, 2024 the Company (and its Defendants) filed a motion for a new trial alleging that certain evidence presented by Plaintiff at the initial trial was fictitious. On April 11, 2024 the Judge will consider the Defendants’ motion for retrial. At December 31, 2023 the Company has only included the sum of $ 5,417 in its current liabilities for the portion relating to “waiting time penalties” for not paying the Plaintiff’s unpaid wages on their due date(s). The Company however strongly disputes the Plaintiff’s other claims for damages as unreasonable, and is prepared to file a motion for Appeal should the Judge in the case decide against a retrial.

Gentlemen:

 

Re:	Offering Statement on Form 1-A (the “Offering Statement”)

 

Mr. Li:

 

I have acted as counsel to Saddle Ranch Media, Inc. (the “Company”) in connection with its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission of an Offering Statement on Form 1-A (the “Offering Statement”), pursuant to Regulation A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). The Offering Statement relates to the proposed sale of up to 3,000,000,000 shares of common stock held by the Company (the “Shares”).

 

In connection therewith, I have examined and relied upon original, certified, conformed, photostat or other copies of (a) the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company; (b) Resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company; (c) the Offering Statement and the exhibits thereto; and (d) such corporate records of the Company, certificates of public officials, certificates of officers of the Company and other documents, agreements and instruments as I have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions herein contained. In all such examinations, I have assumed the genuineness of all signatures on original documents, and the conformity to originals or certified documents of all copies submitted to us as conformed, photostat or other copies. In passing upon certain corporate records and documents of the Company, I have necessarily assumed the correctness and completeness of the statements made or included therein by the Company, and I express no opinion thereon.

 

Based on my examination mentioned above, I am of the opinion that the 3,000,000,000 shares of common stock being offered by the company, when sold, will be legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

 

I am an attorney admitted to practice in New York. I am familiar with the applicable provisions of the Utah Revised Statutes, the applicable provisions of the Utah Constitution and reported judicial decisions interpreting these laws, and I have made such inquiries with respect thereto as I consider necessary to render this opinion with respect to a Utah corporation. This opinion letter is opining upon and is limited to the current federal securities laws of the United States and, Utah law, including the statutory provisions, all applicable provisions of the Utah Constitution and reported judicial decisions interpreting those laws, as such laws presently exist and to the facts as they presently exist. I express no opinion with respect to the effect or applicability of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

 

I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Offering Statement and to the reference to my firm under the caption “Legal Matters” in the prospectus forming a part of the Offering Statement.  In giving such consent, I do not thereby admit that I am included within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

 

Sincerely,   /s/ Erika Mariz Pineda, Esq.
