Notes
To Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Note 1– Basis of Presentation
Netcapital
Inc. (“we,” “our,” or the “Company”) is a provider of consulting services, subscription services,
advertising and digital goods using technology distribution platforms like the Internet and mobile devices in the media and entertainment
markets.
The accompanying
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
(“SEC”) for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for
the six- and three-month periods ended October 31, 2020, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the fiscal year ended April 30, 2021. For further information, refer to the audited financial statements and footnotes thereto
in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2020.
In June 2016,
the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 Financial Instruments-Credit Losses . The new guidance provides better representation
about expected credit losses on financial instruments. This update requires the use of a methodology that reflects expected losses
and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportive information to inform credit loss estimates.
This ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The company
is studying the impact of adopting the ASU in fiscal year 2023, and what effect it could have. The Company believes the accounting
change would not have a material effect on the financial statements.
In June 2018,
the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Improvement to Nonemployee Share-based Payment Accounting, which simplifies the accounting for share-based
payments. The company elected early adoption of this ASU, using the modified retrospective approach, so that all stock compensation
to employees and nonemployees is treated under the same guidance as in ASC 718.
In
December 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying
the Accounting for Income Taxes (ASU 2019-12), which simplifies the accounting for income taxes. This guidance had no
impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Management
does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a material effect on the
accompanying financial statements. As new accounting pronouncements are issued, we will adopt those that are applicable under
the circumstances.
Note 2
– Going Concern Matters and Realization of Assets
The accompanying
financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction
of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. However, the Company has negative working capital of $1,867,687 and short-term
debt of more than $2,300,000. In addition, the Company may be unable to meet all of its obligations as they become due. The Company
believes that its existing cash resources may not be sufficient to fund its debt payments and working capital requirements. The
Company anticipates a majority of its debt payments will be forgiven under the provisions of an SBA loan program, and such forgiveness
will alleviate the uncertainty of being able to fund its debt service requirements.
The Company
may not be able to raise sufficient additional debt, equity, or other cash on acceptable terms, if at all. Failure to generate
sufficient revenues, obtain loan forgiveness, achieve certain other business plan objectives or raise additional funds could have
a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial position, including its ability
to continue as a going concern, and may require it to significantly reduce, reorganize, discontinue or shut down its operations.
7
In view of
the matters described above, recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance
sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company which, in turn, is dependent upon the Company’s ability to meet
its financing requirements on a continuing basis, and to succeed in its future operations. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities
that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in its existence.
Management’s
plans include:
1. Seek
to merge its business operations with some of the revenue-generating early-stage companies
that it has incubated. The Company already owns a portion of more than a dozen companies
and believes that the combination of some of those entities with the Company will provide
an efficient use of fixed overhead and create additional cash flow from operations.
2. Renegotiate
the payment terms of an SBA loan.
3. Continue
to provide consulting services and continue to charge both a cash fee and an equity-based
fee, when possible, in exchange for these services.
Management
has determined, based on the debt balances it is carrying, that without debt forgiveness it is not probable that management’s
plan will sufficiently alleviate or mitigate, to a sufficient level, the relevant conditions or events noted above. Accordingly,
the management of the Company has concluded that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a
going concern within one year after the issuance date of these financial statements.
Note 3
– Revenue Recognition
Revenue Recognition under
ASC 606
The Company
recognizes service revenue from its consulting contracts and its game website using the five-step model as prescribed by ASC 606:
• Identification
of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;
• Identification
of the performance obligations in the contract;
• Determination
of the transaction price;
• Allocation
of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
• Recognition
of revenue when or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
The Company
identifies performance obligations in contracts with customers, which primarily are professional services and subscription services.
The transaction price is determined based on the amount the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for transferring
the promised services to the customer. The transaction price in the contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation
in an amount that represents the relative amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for satisfying each performance
obligation. Revenue is recognized when performance obligations are satisfied. The Company usually bills its customers before it
provides any services and begins performing services after the first payment is received. Contracts are typically one year or
less. For larger contracts, in addition to the initial payment, the Company may allow for progress payments throughout the term
of the contract.
Judgments
and Estimates
The estimation
of variable consideration for each performance obligation requires the Company to make subjective judgments. The Company enters
contracts with customers that regularly include promises to transfer multiple services, such as digital marketing, web-based videos,
offering statements, and professional services. For arrangements with multiple services, the Company evaluates whether the individual
services qualify as distinct performance obligations. In its assessment of whether a service is a distinct performance obligation,
the Company determines whether the customer can benefit from the service on its own or with other readily available resources,
and whether the service is separately identifiable from other services in the contract. This evaluation requires the Company to
assess the nature of each individual service offering and how the services are provided in the context of the contract, including
whether the services are significantly integrated, highly interrelated, or significantly modify each other, which may require
judgment based on the facts and circumstances of the contract.
8
When agreements
involve multiple distinct performance obligations, the Company allocates arrangement consideration to all performance obligations
at the inception of an arrangement based on the relative standalone selling prices (“SSP”) of each performance obligation.
Where the Company has standalone sales data for its performance obligations which are indicative of the price at which the Company
sells a promised service separately to a customer, such data is used to establish SSP. In instances where standalone sales data
is not available for a particular performance obligation, the Company estimates SSP by the use of observable market and cost-based
inputs. The Company continues to review the factors used to establish list price and will adjust standalone selling price methodologies
as necessary on a prospective basis.
Service
Revenue
Service revenue
from subscriptions to the Company's game website is recognized over time on a ratable basis over the contractual subscription
term beginning on the date that the platform is made available to the customer. Payments received in advance of subscription services
being rendered are recorded as a deferred revenue. Professional services revenue is recognized over time as the services are rendered.
When a contract
with a customer is signed, the Company assesses whether collection of the fees under the arrangement is probable. The Company
estimates the amount to reserve for uncollectible amounts based on the aging of the contract balance, current and historical customer
trends, and communications with its customers. These reserves are recorded as operating expenses against the contract asset (Accounts
Receivable).
Contract
Assets
Contract assets
are recorded for those parts of the contract consideration not yet invoiced but for which the performance obligations are completed.
The revenue is recognized when the customer receives services. Contract assets are included in other current or non-current assets
in the consolidated balance sheets, depending on if their reduction will be recognized during the succeeding twelve-month period
or beyond.
Deferred
Revenue
Deferred revenues
represent billings or payments received in advance of revenue recognition and are recognized upon transfer of control. Balances
consist primarily of annual plan subscription services and professional and training services not yet provided as of the balance
sheet date. Deferred revenues that will be recognized during the succeeding twelve-month period are recorded as current deferred
revenues in the consolidated balance sheets, with the remainder recorded as other non-current liabilities in the consolidated
balance sheets.
Costs
to Obtain a Customer Contract
Sales commissions
and related expenses are considered incremental and recoverable costs of acquiring customer contracts. These costs are capitalized
as other current or non-current assets and amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract, which approximates
the benefit period. The benefit period was estimated by taking into consideration the length of customer contracts, technology
lifecycle, and other factors. All sales commissions are recorded as consulting fees within the Company's consolidated statement
of operations.
Remaining
Performance Obligations
The Company's
subscription terms are typically less than one year. All of the Company’s revenues in the six- and three-month periods ended
October 31, 2020 and 2019 are considered contract revenues. Contract revenue as of October 31, 2020 and April 30, 2020, which
has not yet been recognized, amounted to $5,507 and $656, respectively, and is recorded on the balance sheet as deferred revenue.
The Company expects to recognize revenue on all of its remaining performance obligations over the next 12 months.

As of October
31, 2020 and April 30, 2020, the Company owed its principal lender (“Lender”) $1,000,000 under a loan and security
agreement (“Loan”) dated April 28, 2011, that was amended on July 26, 2014 and again on October 31, 2017. The Lender
was also the largest shareholder of the Company, owning 135,676 shares of common stock, or 32.3% of the 419,455 shares issued
and outstanding, as of October 31, 2020. The Loan was amended on October 31, 2017 to change the maturity date to October 31, 2020,

In connection
with the financing, the Company has agreed to certain restrictive covenants, including, among others, that the Company may not
convey, sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any part of its business or property, except as permitted in the agreement,
dissolve, liquidate or merge with any other party unless, in the case of a merger, the Company is the surviving entity, incur
any indebtedness except as defined in the agreement, create or allow a lien on any of its assets or collateral that has been pledged
to the Lender, make any loans to any person, except for prepaid items or deposits incurred in the ordinary course of business,
or make any material capital expenditures. To secure the payment of all obligations to the Lender, the Company granted to the
Lender a continuing security interest and first lien on all of the assets of the Company.
As of October
31, 2020 and April 30, 2020, the Company’s related-party unsecured notes payable totaled $15,000. There is one note, payable
on demand, with a zero percent interest rate. The Company also owes $34,324 as of October 31, 2020 and April 30, 2020 to Chase
Bank. The Company pays interest expense to Chase Bank, which is calculated at a rate of 5.5% per annum.
On May 6,
2020, the Company borrowed $1,885,800 (the “May Loan”) and on June 17, 2020 the Company borrowed $500,000 (the “June
Loan”) from a U.S. Small Business Administration (the "SBA") loan program. The May Loan has an initial term of
two years and an interest rate of 1% per annum. Principal payments are delayed until the Company negotiates with the lender as
to the amount of principal that is subject to repayment. If repayment of the May Loan is required, payments begin after a six-month
deferral period, in which interest accrues, and payments are to be made in equal installments of approximately $106,125 over an
18-month period. Of the $1,885,800 balance, $1,260,334 is considered a short-term liability. Accrued interest payable on the May
Loan amounted to $9,197 as of October 31, 2020.
The June Loan
requires installment payments of $2,437 monthly, beginning on June 17, 2021 over a term of thirty years. Interest accrues at a
rate of 3.75% per annum. The Company agreed to grant a continuing security interest in its assets to secure payment and performance
of all debts, liabilities, and obligations to the SBA. The June Loan was personally guaranteed by the Company’s Chief Financial
Officer. $4,185 of the June Loan is recorded as a current liability and the remaining $495,815 is classified as a long-term liability.
Accrued interest payable on the June Loan amounted to $6,935 as of October 31, 2020.
Demand notes
payable totaled $7,860 as of October 31, 2020 and April 30, 2020. These notes have an interest rate of 0%.
Note 6
– Income Taxes
As of October
31, 2020 and April 30, 2020, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for Federal income tax purposes of approximately
$700,000 expiring in the years of 2021 through 2035.
The Tax Cuts
and Jobs Act ("Tax Act") was enacted on December 22, 2017. Among numerous provisions, the Tax Act reduces the U.S. federal
corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, requires companies to pay a one-time transition tax on earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries
that were previously tax deferred, and creates new taxes on certain foreign sourced earnings. As a result of the Tax Act, the
Company remeasured certain deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at which they are expected to reverse in the
future, which is generally 21%.
As of April
30, 2020, the Company had net deferred tax assets calculated at an expected rate of 21%, or approximately $180,000. As of April
30, 2020, the Company recognized the net deferred asset to the extent of the impact on current book earnings, as the Company’s
management believed that historical, current and expected earnings are sufficient to meet the more likely than not standard to
enable the Company to recognize the net deferred tax asset. Given that management believes it is more likely than not that the
company will utilize the deferred tax asset, there is no valuation allowance as of October 31, 2020 and April 30, 2020.
As
of October 31, 2020, the deferred tax asset has been reduced to $157,602 by the tax provision of $22,398 for the six months ended
October 31, 2020. Due to the availability of
a tax loss carryforward to offset any potential income tax in the six- and three-month periods ended October 31, 2019, the Company
recorded no income tax expense in those periods.

Note 9
– Fair Value
The Fair Value
Measurements Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs
to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant
unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Level
1: inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the company has the ability
to access at the measurement date.
Level
2: inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either
directly or indirectly.
Level
3: inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
Under the
Fair Value Measurements Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, we base fair value on the price that would be received
to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
It is our policy to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when developing fair value
measurements, in accordance with the fair value hierarchy. Fair value measurements for assets and liabilities where there exists
limited or no observable market data and, therefore, are based primarily upon management’s own estimates, are often calculated
based on current pricing policy, the economic and competitive environment, the characteristics of the asset or liability and other
such factors. Therefore, the results cannot be determined with precision and may not be realized in an actual sale or immediate
settlement of the asset or liability. Additionally, there may be inherent weaknesses in any calculation technique, and changes
in the underlying assumptions used.

– Subsequent Events
In addition
to the reverse split on November 5, 2020 (see Note 8), the Company changed its name to Netcapital Inc. On August 23, 2020, the
Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Agreement”) whereby NetCapital Systems LLC (“Systems”)
would become an 80% owner of the Company. Pursuant to the requirements of this agreement, the Company filed a definitive information
statement on September 21, 2020 to change the Company’s c orporate name from ValueSetters, Inc.
to NetCapital Inc and to a mend the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to effect a stock
combination, or reverse stock split, pursuant to which 2,000 shares of the Company’s common stock would be exchanged for
one new share of common stock. In conjunction with the merger agreement, the Company issued 1,666,360 to Systems on November 5,
2020.
15
The Agreement
calls for a tax-free merger of Netcapital Funding Portal Inc. (“NFPI”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Systems, with
Netcapital Acquisition Vehicle Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, wherein NFPI is the surviving corporation.
This transaction is designed to enhance the Company’s revenues and ability to provide services to democratize the private
capital markets while helping companies at all stages to build, grow and fund their businesses with a full range of services from
strategic advice to raising capital. As a result of the transaction, the company is expected to be a leading provider of private
capital transactions for entrepreneurs seeking to raise money under the exemption provided by section 4(a)(6) of the Securities
Act of 1933.
ASC 805-10-25-4
requires the identification of one of the combining entities in each business combination as the acquirer. Upon evaluation of
the components of the business combination, including the relative voting rights in the combined entity, the composition of the
governing body and senior management of the combined entity, the relative size of each entity and the terms of the exchange of
equity interests, the Company intends to record the transaction in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 as a purchase.
The following
table summarizes the value of the consideration for NFPI and the amounts of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in conjunction
with the Agreement.
Consideration:
1,666,360 shares of common stock of the Company

$ 11,331,248
The fair value
of the common shares issued as the consideration for NFPI was determined on the basis of the closing market price of the Company’s
common shares on the date the shares were issued. The fair value of the assets and the liabilities of NFPI equaled their book
value. Four identifiable intangible assets were valued; platform users, platform investors, platform issuers and unpatented technology
(collectively the “Intangible Assets”). The estimated market value of the Intangible assets is approximately $27,800,000.
These values are derived from comparing the NFPI Intangible Assets to the values recorded by funding portal offerings of NFPI’s
competitors in public filings via Regulations CF and Regulation A. The Agreement was not completed in the current reporting quarter,
and therefore the Company has not finished its evaluation of the Intangible Assets. The fair value of the acquired Intangible
Assets is provisional pending receipt of the final valuations for those assets.
The excess
of purchase price over the total identifiable tangible net assets is estimated to be $628,435, which leaves an aggregate value
of $10,702,813 to be assigned to the Intangible Assets. The estimated value of the $27,800,000 of Intangible Assets is allocated
on a percentage basis in the above table to equal $10,702,813.
None of NFPI’s
revenues and earnings are included in the Company’s consolidated income statements for the six months ended October 31,
2020 and 2019. If the entities had been combined for these two reporting periods, the supplemental pro forma revenues and earnings
are as follows:
Revenues
Earnings
Supplemental
pro forma for 4/1/20 – 10/31/20
$ 2,866,063
$ 282,264
Supplemental pro
forma for 4/1/19 – 10/31/19
$ 1,018,200
$ 680,212
Included in
the supplemental pro forma information above is revenue earned by the Company from Netcapital Systems LLC of $18,646 and $152,864
in the six-month periods ended October 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
The Company
evaluated subsequent events through the date these financial statements were available to be issued. There were no other material
subsequent events that required recognition or additional disclosure in these financial statements.
