−Removed: the minimum net proceeds requirement of $1.5 million and the $250,000 fee was deducted from the net proceeds to the Company.
−Removed: In accounting
−Removed: for this transaction, the Company did not correctly capitalize the $250,000 fee as a prepaid asset in March 2020, when it became
−Removed: probable that the amount would be owed, subject to amortization over the remaining contractual term of 43 months.
−Removed: correction of this error resulted in an increase to prepaid expenses of $250,000 as of March
−Removed: 31, 2020, and a corresponding decrease in other expense for the three months ended March
−Removed: In addition, the correction of this error resulted in an increase in other expenses
−Removed: and corresponding decrease in prepaid expenses for the amortization of $5,814, $17,442, and
−Removed: $17,442 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, June 30, 2020, and September 30, 2020,
−Removed: respectively.
−Removed: The cumulative effect of this correction resulted in an increase in other expenses
−Removed: and a corresponding decrease in prepaid expenses of $5,814, $23,256 and $40,698 as of March
−Removed: 31, 2020, as of June 30, 2020, and as of September 30, 2020, respectively.
−Removed: Adjustments –
−Removed: In addition, the Company has corrected other adjustments.
−Removed: While some of these other adjustments may be quantitatively
−Removed: immaterial, individually and in the aggregate, because the Company is correcting for the material errors above, management has decided
−Removed: to correct these other adjustments as well (“Other Adjustments”):
−Removed: Due to utilization of
−Removed: more updated forecasts, quarterly amortization expense on intangible assets (trademarks, customer lists, IP technology and non-compete
−Removed: agreements) decreased by $24,423 in the three months ended March 31, 2020, decreased $6,348 in the three months ended June
−Removed: 30, 2020, and increased $29,802 in the three months ended September 30, 2020, to reflect the changes in the intangible assets
−Removed: For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the amortization expense decreased $30,771 and for the nine months ended September
−Removed: 30, 2020, the amortization expense decreased $969.
−Removed: general and administrative expenses and accrued liabilities decreased by $87,670 as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2020,
−Removed: to correct an error relating to previously recorded professional services provided to Oceanside during 2019.
−Removed: related items:
−Removed: entry corrections
−Removed: receivable, net adjustment and/or reclasses
−Removed: payable adjustments and/or reclasses
−Removed: expenses adjustments and/or reclasses
−Removed: effect –
−Removed: The Company assessed the tax impact of the above restatement items, including any impact to deferred tax asset
−Removed: and liabilities.
−Removed: The Company determined that the impact of the changes for the finder’s fees (a), goodwill (d), share-based
−Removed: compensation (e), penalty accrual (f), preferred dividends (g) and common stock issued for investor relations agreement would be
−Removed: permanent book/tax differences, therefore had no impact on the income tax provision or any tax assets and liabilities, current or
−Removed: Tax effect of the other adjustments is discussed below.
−Removed: of March 31, 2020:
−Removed: deferred tax liability balance decreased by $24,711 and income tax benefit increased by the same amount for the three months ended March
−Removed: 31, 2020, as a result of correcting an error in the calculation of Oceanside’s net deferred tax liability, which was originally
−Removed: recorded in Q3 2020 as an out of period adjustment, along with changes to the deferred tax liability stemming from the changes in the
−Removed: amortization of the Oceanside intangibles.
−Removed: of June 30, 2020:
−Removed: increased by $140,321, deferred tax liability decreased by $35,846 and income tax benefit increased by $176,167 for the three months
−Removed: ended June 30, 2020, as a result of the following:
−Removed: $140,321 goodwill adjustment related to a true-up to the Wild Sky acquisition recorded originally in Q3 2020 from the estimate included
−Removed: in the original Q2 2020 financials.
−Removed: The offset of the change in the deferred tax liability recorded through goodwill for Wild Sky was
−Removed: a change in the valuation allowance at the Company.
−Removed: The $140,321 change in valuation allowance at the Company level is recorded through
−Removed: the profit and loss and is part of the $176,167 change.
−Removed: additional $11,136 (out of the $78,048) change in the tax provision relates to reversing a deferred tax liability related to indefinite
−Removed: lived asset from Wild Sky that was recorded in error originally in Q2 2020 as it was originally determined that Wild Sky would have tax
−Removed: amortizable goodwill but with the Wild Sky acquisition accounting adjustments noted above it was determined the deferred tax liability
−Removed: originally recorded in Q2 2020 should be reversed.
−Removed: remaining $24,710 (out of the $176,167) relates to the same issue as described above for the Q1 2020 adjustment.
−Removed: The offset was a decrease
−Removed: to the deferred tax liability balance.
−Removed: of September 30, 2020:
−Removed: decreased by $26,347, deferred tax liability increased by $38,848 and income tax benefit decreased by $65,194 for the three months ended
−Removed: September 30, 2020, as a result of the following:
−Removed: $26,347 adjustment to goodwill was to reverse the true-up that was originally recorded in Q3 2020 that was pushed back to Q2 2020.
−Removed: corresponding offset was to decrease the income tax benefit.
−Removed: of the tax provision adjustment relates to reversing the two $40,565 true-ups that were originally booked in Q3 2020 but were pushed
−Removed: back to Q1 and Q2 2020, along with changes to the deferred tax liability stemming from the changes in the amortization of the Oceanside
−Removed: is a $58,843 increase to the tax benefit and offsetting decrease to the deferred tax liability to record the impact of the Oceanside
−Removed: The effect of this adjustment was to reduce Oceanside’s remaining deferred tax liability to $0.
−Removed: Subsequent to the impairment,
−Removed: the Oceanside operations were in a net deferred tax asset position which was offset with a valuation allowance.
−Removed: notes consideration change from Oceanside acquisition –
−Removed: As part of the acquisition, the treatment of the Closing notes
−Removed: totaling $750,000 was incorrectly recorded and per ASC 805-30-55 was determined to be compensation expense to be recognized
−Removed: ratably over the 24-month term of the Notes.
−Removed: As such, starting in September 2019 and concluding in August 2021, $31,250 per month
−Removed: will be charged to compensation expense and a corresponding accrued liability will be recorded until the full amount of the $750,000
−Removed: is reflected on the balance sheet.
−Removed: As of August 15, 2020, the Company did not make payment on the 1 st closing notes
−Removed: and thereby defaulted on its obligation and the 2 nd closing note accelerated to become payable as of August 15, 2020.
−Removed: Upon default, the closing notes accrue interest at a 1.5% per month rate, or 18% annual rate.
−Removed: As a result, there was an incremental
−Removed: total charge of $300,672 recorded during 2020 which was $250,000 of additional compensation expense and $50,672 of interest expense-related
−Removed: revenue –
−Removed: As part of the audit of 2019, it was determined that $156,529 of recorded revenue needed to be reclassified into
−Removed: deferred revenue as part of the review of FASB ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
−Removed: For the restated quarters in 2020,
−Removed: this deferred revenue carries forward from the year end December 31, 2019 and has no statement of operations impact in the quarters
−Removed: ended March 31, 2020, June 30, 2020 nor September 30, 2020.
−Removed: Reversal of gain on legal settlement –
−Removed: The Company determined that during Q3 2020, it recorded incorrectly a non-cash gain on a legal settlement that involved the repurchase
−Removed: of 550,117 Treasury shares of $935,408.
−Removed: The treatment was incorrect and did not follow the appropriate accounting guidance, ASC 505-30-25-2
−Removed: and the Company corrected for this error.
−Removed: The net effect on Shareholder’s equity is neutral as the accumulated deficit increase
−Removed: was offset entirely by the decreased Treasury share value
