−Removed: to scale production and distribution capabilities and further increase the value of our brands, is largely dependent on our success in
−Removed: raising additional capital.
−Removed: The report of the Company’s

−Removed: Our 2020 results were largely
−Removed: dominated by managing, searching for potential business combination candidates and ultimately closing the business combination with S-FDF,
−Removed: LLC to enter into the freeze-dried foods business.
−Removed: We did not earn any revenues in 2020, compared to earning $466,595 in management fees
−Removed: for the year ended December 31, 2019, from our management agreement with BRAC subsequent to the AESE transaction.
−Removed: We anticipate generating
−Removed: revenues from our freeze-dried foods business in 2021.
−Removed: Our general and administrative
−Removed: expenses remained relatively consistent throughout 2020, driven primarily by salaries and benefits amounting to $1,477,124.
−Removed: Our stock-based
−Removed: compensation of $1,104,096 consisted of $268,608 of stock issued to officers and directors, $458,048 of expense related to the amortization
−Removed: of stock options and $377,440 of expense related to warrants issued to officers and directors as a debt discount for their personal guarantee
−Removed: on a line of credit.
−Removed: Application of Critical Accounting Policies
−Removed: Our discussion and analysis
−Removed: of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with
−Removed: accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
−Removed: The preparation of these financial statements requires us to
−Removed: make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of
−Removed: contingent assets and liabilities.
−Removed: On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to impairment of property,
−Removed: plant and equipment, intangible assets, deferred tax assets and fair value computation using the Black Scholes option pricing model.
−Removed: base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions, such as the trading value of our common stock and estimated
−Removed: future undiscounted cash flows, that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making
−Removed: judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
−Removed: Actual results may differ
−Removed: from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
−Removed: We believe that our estimates, including those for the above-described
−Removed: items, are reasonable.
−Removed: Critical Accounting Policies
−Removed: The establishment and consistent
−Removed: application of accounting policies is a vital component of accurately and fairly presenting our financial statements in accordance with
−Removed: generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP), as well as ensuring compliance with applicable laws and regulations
−Removed: governing financial reporting.
−Removed: While there are rarely alternative methods or rules from which to select in establishing accounting and
−Removed: financial reporting policies, proper application often involves significant judgment regarding a given set of facts and circumstances
−Removed: and a complex series of decisions.
−Removed: Deferred tax assets are recognized
−Removed: for temporary differences in financial statement and tax basis amounts that will result in deductible amounts and carry-forwards in future
−Removed: Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for temporary differences that will result in taxable amounts in future years.
−Removed: tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax law and tax rate(s) for the year in which we expect the temporary differences
−Removed: to be deducted or settled.
−Removed: The effect of a change in tax law or rates on the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized
−Removed: in income in the period of enactment.
−Removed: Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it
−Removed: is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
−Removed: Significant future taxable income would
−Removed: be required to realize this net tax asset.
−Removed: Estimating the amount of the
−Removed: valuation allowance is dependent on estimates of future taxable income, alternative minimum tax income, and changes in shareholder ownership
−Removed: that would trigger limits on use of net operating losses under Internal Revenue Code Section 382.
−Removed: Fair Value of Financial Instruments
−Removed: Our cash and cash equivalents,
−Removed: investments, accounts receivable and accounts payable are stated at cost which approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of
−Removed: these instruments.
−Removed: In January 2010, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting standards related to the disclosures about an
−Removed: entity’s use of fair value measurements.
−Removed: Among these amendments, entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about transfers
−Removed: into and out of the Level 1 (fair value determined based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities)
−Removed: and Level 2 (fair value determined based on significant other observable inputs) classifications, provide separate disclosures about
−Removed: purchases, sales, issuances and settlements relating to the tabular reconciliation of beginning and ending balances of the Level 3
−Removed: (fair value determined based on significant unobservable inputs) classification and provide greater disaggregation for each class of assets
−Removed: and liabilities that use fair value measurements.
−Removed: Use of Estimates
−Removed: In accordance with accounting
−Removed: principles generally accepted in the United States, management utilizes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
−Removed: assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the
−Removed: reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
−Removed: Actual results could differ from those estimates.
