Penny Stock Rules
Trading
in Madison’s Common Stock is subject to the “penny stock” rules. The SEC has adopted regulations that generally
define a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions.
These rules require that any broker-dealer who recommends Madison’s Common Stock to persons other than prior customers and
accredited investors, must, prior to the sale, make a special written suitability determination for the purchaser and receive
the purchaser’s written agreement to execute the transaction. Unless an exception is available, the regulations require
the delivery, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and
the risks associated with trading in the penny stock market. In addition, broker-dealers must disclose commissions payable to
both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities they offer. The additional
burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in Madison’s
securities, which could severely limit their market price and liquidity of Madison’s securities. The application of the
“penny stock” rules may affect your ability to resell Madison’s securities.

STATEMENTS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION INCLUDED HEREIN.

Results
of Operation for the Period Ended December 31, 2019
During
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, we incurred net losses of $42,263, compared to our net losses in fiscal 2017 of
$53,906. Our losses in the current fiscal year were lower due to a reduction in amortization expense.
We
have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to complete our proposed business plan. For
these reasons our auditors believe that there is substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern.
Our
financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments
relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be
unable to continue in operation.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2019, Madison had total
assets of $6,544, and a working capital deficit of $358,377, compared with a working capital deficit of $366,114 as of
December 31, 2018. The decrease in the working capital deficit was primarily due to a reduction in accounts payable and accrued
liabilities. The assets consisted of $1,366 in cash and $5,178 in prepaid expenses. The liabilities consisted of $33,655 in accounts
payable and accrued liabilities ($48,169 in 2018), $33,500 in license fee payable ($33,500 in 2018), $134,276 in notes
payable and accrued interest ($126,498 in 2018), $163,000 in convertible notes payable to third parties ($163,000 in 2018), and
$490 in convertible notes payable to a related party.
There
are no assurances that Madison will be able to achieve further sales of its Common Stock or any other form of additional financing.
If Madison is unable to achieve the financing necessary to continue its plan of operations, then Madison will not be able to continue
its plan of operations and its business will fail.
Net
Cash Used in Operating Activities
For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019,
net cash used in operating activities increased to $51,177 compared with $32,967 for the same period in the previous fiscal year.
The use of cash was primarily due to a net loss of $42,263 less non-cash items of interest on the convertible debt of $6,141,
a reduction in amortization of license , the increase in accounts payable and accruals. Gain on the foreign exchange on notes
payable and the balances in prepaid expenses were factors in increasing the cash used in operations.
Net
Cash Used in Investing Activities
The
Company did not invest any cash in investing activities in either the year ending December 31, 2019 or 2018.
Net
Cash Provided by Financing Activities
Net cash flows provided by financing activities was $50,000 for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 as compared with financing activities of $32,290 for the same period in the previous fiscal
year. The net cash provided by financing activities was due to the proceeds from shares issued.
Plan
of Operation
Madison’s
plan of operation for the next 12 months is to deliver the Licensed Products into the European and UK retail and wholesale markets
via the use of online market and fulfillment services including but not limited to Amazon.eu, Redstag and MCS Fulfilment. By implementing
these companies’ services Madison will be able to establish a reliable supply chain that will receive delivery of the Licensed
Products, warehouse the Licensed Products, package the Licensed Package as per each customer order, and ship the Licensed Products
to the customer efficiently and cost effectively.
Madison Technologies Inc. Form 10-K - 2019 Page 13
Management
expects to expand Madison’s sales distribution strategy beginning in May 2020 and to be operational by September 2020, this
includes the following components:
1.
Initial inventory with an estimated cost of $10,000
2.
Social media and online advertising of $10,000
3.
Payments to be made under Product License Agreement of $33,500
Madison
sales strategy is to develop online exposure through the use of social media marketing and sending demo packs of the Licensed
Products to both online bloggers and established gun owner clubs. The demo packs will include both new products as well as examples
of the products that have been tested and exposed to gunfire to demonstrate the products effectiveness.
In
addition to the costs associated to Madison’s sales and distribution strategy, management anticipates incurring the following
expenses during the next 12 month period:
●
Management
anticipates spending approximately $2,500 in ongoing general and administrative expenses per month for the next 12 months,
for a total anticipated expenditure of $30,000 over the next 12 months. The general and administrative expenses for the year
will consist primarily of professional fees for the audit and legal work relating to Madison’s regulatory filings throughout
the year, as well as transfer agent fees, annual mineral claim fees and general office expenses.
●
Management
anticipates spending approximately $15,000 in complying with Madison’s obligations as a reporting company under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and as a reporting issuer in Canada. These expenses will consist primarily of professional
fees relating to the preparation of Madison’s financial statements and completing and filing its annual report, quarterly
report, and current report filings with the SEC and with SEDAR in Canada.
As
at December 31, 2019, Madison had cash of $1,366 and a working capital deficit of $358,360. Accordingly, Madison will require
additional financing in the amount of $396,816 in order to fund its obligations as a reporting company under the Securities
Act of 1934 and its general and administrative expenses for the next 12 months.
During
the 12 month period following the date of this annual report, management anticipates that Madison will not generate any revenue.
Accordingly, Madison will be required to obtain additional financing in order to continue its plan of operations. Management believes
that debt financing will not be an alternative for funding Madison’s plan of operations as it does not have tangible assets
to secure any debt financing. Rather, management anticipates that additional funding will be in the form of equity financing from
the sale of Madison’s Common Stock. However, Madison does not have any financing arranged and cannot provide investors with
any assurance that it will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of its Common Stock to fund its plan of operations.
In the absence of such financing, Madison will not be able to acquire any interest in a new technology and its business plan will
fail. Even if Madison is successful in obtaining equity financing and acquire an interest in a new technology, additional research
and development will be required before a determination as to whether the technology will be commercially viable. If Madison does
not continue to obtain additional financing, it will be forced to abandon its business and plan of operations.
Purchase
of Significant Equipment
We
do not intend to purchase any significant equipment during the next 12 months.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
Madison
has no off-balance sheet arrangements including arrangements that would affect its liquidity, capital resources, market risk support
and credit risk support or other benefits.
Material
Commitments for Capital Expenditures
Madison
had no contingencies or long-term commitments at December 31, 2019.

Going
Concern
The
independent auditors’ report accompanying our December 31, 2019 and 2018 financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph
expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements have been prepared assuming
that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates that we will realize our assets and satisfy our liabilities and commitments
in the ordinary course of business.

Critical
Accounting Policies
Madison’s
financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United
States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application
of accounting policies. Management believes that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved
with the following aspects of Madison’s financial statements is critical to an understanding of Madison’s financial
statements.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses in the reporting period. Madison regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions
related to deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. Madison bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical
experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the
basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are
not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by Madison may differ materially and adversely from Madison’s
estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations
will be affected.
Fair
Value Measurements
Madison
follows FASB ASC 820, “ Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” , for all financial instruments and non-financial
instruments accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis. This new accounting standard establishes a single definition of
fair value and a framework for measuring fair value, sets out a fair value hierarchy to be used to classify the source of information
used in fair value measurement and expands disclosures about fair value measurements required under other accounting pronouncements.
It does not change existing guidance as to whether or not an instrument is carried at fair value. Madison defines fair value as
the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market
participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, which are required
to be recorded at fair value, Madison considers the principal or most advantageous market in which Madison would transact and
the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as
inherent risk, transfer restrictions and credit risk. Madison has adopted FASB ASC 825, “ Financial Instruments”,
which allows companies to choose to measure eligible financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are
not required to be measured at fair value. Madison has not elected the fair value option for any eligible financial instruments.
Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets
Impairment
losses on long-lived assets, such as mining claims, are recognized when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the undiscounted
cash flows estimated to be generated by such assets are less than their carrying value and, accordingly, all or a portion of such
carrying value may not be recoverable. Impairment losses are then measured by comparing the fair value of assets to their carrying
amounts.
