FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Annual Report contains certain forward-looking statements and for this purpose any statements contained in this Annual Report that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements.  Without limiting the foregoing, words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate” or “continue” or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements.  These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially depending on a variety of factors, many of which are not within our control.  These factors include but are not limited to economic conditions generally and in the endeavors in which we may participate, competition within our chosen industry, technological advances and failure by us to successfully develop business relationships, among others.

 

PART I

 

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

 

Business Development

 

Northsight Capital, Inc. is a Nevada Corporation formed in May, 2008. We were originally formed to engage in the business of marketing, developing, and producing unique, proprietary water products. We abandoned this business in 2008. Since then and until February 2014, we were a “shell company” within the meaning of applicable securities laws as we had no operations and our business was comprised of seeking acquisition candidates. We commenced limited operations during the quarterly period ended March 31, 2014. During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, we raised capital, hired employees and entered into various agreements, including to develop our website and to acquire approximately 7,500 internet domain names. On June 23, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of approximately 7,500 cannabis related internet domain names from Kae Yong Park, an individual who became our majority shareholder as a result of the acquisition. Currently, we own approximately 1,276 cannabis related internet domain names. In consideration of the acquisition of the 7,500 cannabis related Internet domain names from Kae Park, the Company:

 

Issued an aggregate of 78.5 million shares of its common stock to Ms. Park; 

 

Issued her a promissory note in the principal amount of $500,000. The note was amended and restated to provide that the first $100,000 installment payment due under the Note would be made July 25, 2014 (earlier than required), in exchange for which Kae Yong Park agreed to waive all interest due over the term of the note. Kae Yong Park has waived the requirement that the Company pay the $100,000 due under the Amended and Restated Note, until August 25, 2014. Such $100,000 has since been paid to Ms. Park. The remaining balance of $400,000 is payable in thirty-six equal monthly installments, commencing on the fifteenth day following the first month the Company realizes at least $150,000 in gross revenue; 

 

Agreed to pay a monthly royalty equal to the product of (i) six percent (6%) and (ii) the excess of the gross monthly revenue over $150,000. The royalty payment shall be payable for a period of thirty-six months from and after the first month in which the Company’s gross revenues are in excess of $150,000. 

 

In addition, Ms. Park was required to provide such consulting services as the Company required during the twelve month period following the closing of the acquisition. In consideration for these services, the Company is required to pay the Ms. Park $9,500 per month, for a period of twelve months, commencing on the closing date and, on the first of each month thereafter. Ms. Park is also entitled to “piggyback” registration rights on the Securities Act registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, with respect to eight million shares of common stock issued to the seller. The Company is obligated to bear all registration expenses of such piggyback registration, other than underwriting discounts and commissions and any legal fees incurred by the seller.

 

In May 2017, we signed a non-binding memorandum of terms to acquire Crush Mobile. On August 8, 2017, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire all the outstanding membership interests of Crush Mobile, LLC, which was amended by Amendment No. 1 dated January 4, 2018 (as amended, the “Agreement”). As reported in our form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 10, 2018, the Crush acquisition was closed January 8, 2018. Accordingly, Crush’s operations are not included in the financial statements of the company as of December 31, 2017. Under the terms of the Agreement, we acquired all the outstanding membership interests of Crush Mobile, in exchange for an aggregate of approximately 8 million shares of common stock, plus $80,000 in cash, payable within one year of closing. We also agreed to piggy-back registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock issuable to the sellers in connection with the acquisition. In connection with Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement, the parties waived the condition that the Company complete a funding of at least $500,000.

Crush Mobile’s assets consist primarily of trademarks, domain names, mobile dating applications and related software and intellectual property. Crush Mobile, with approximately nine hundred thousand members, has developed a group of dating sites with a presence in the Latino, Israeli and African American communities. Crush will also be incorporating Northsight’s "Joint Lovers" dating app, which concentrates on the Cannabis space, into its dating applications suite.

 

Effective February 1, 2018, we engaged Crush Mobile CEO, Sonya Kreizman, and Yosi Shemesh, as consultants. Ms. Kreizman and Mr. Shemesh will be paid $7,000 and $6,500 per month, respectively for their services.

 

The Company was previously a “shell company” within the meaning of applicable securities laws. The Company has ceased to be a “shell company” within the meaning of applicable securities laws in that the Company has raised capital, hired employees, leased space, acquired domain names, including prior to the acquisition described herein, engaged consultants and advisors, completed the construction and launch of several web portals, including “WeedDepot.com” and “TheMarijuanaCompanies.com”, conducted sales and marketing related activities, and negotiated vendor relationships.

 

Subject to receipt of sufficient funding, which we currently do not have, we intend to build additional of websites/portals around our domain names. Certain of our websites/portals will serve as directories for businesses engaged in the lawful sale and distribution of cannabis and hemp related products and services. To date we have completed and launched nine cannabis related websites, as described below. As noted below, subject to the receipt of additional funding, we intend to complete and launch an additional three cannabis related websites.

 

Products and Services

 

The Company’s principal business is to provide a variety of online directories for a broad range of businesses engaged in the lawful sale and distribution of cannabis and hemp related products. As a result of the Crush Mobile acquisition, the Company is now offering a group of dating sites with a presence in the Latino, Israeli and African American communities. Crush will also be incorporating Northsight’s "Joint Lovers" dating app, which concentrates on the Cannabis space, into its dating applications suite.

 

The following constitute the Company’s major product categories: a monthly listing in one or more of the Company’s online directories, paid advertising in one or more of the Company’s online directories leasing to customers one or more Internet domain names for the customer’s exclusive use, and subscription to membership in Crush Mobile’s dating applications.

 

The principal markets for the Company’s services are individuals interested in online dating and businesses that are engaged in the lawful sale and distribution of cannabis and cannabis related products and wish to (i) be included in one or more of the Company’s state based online directories, (ii) advertise in the Company’s online directories or (iii) lease one or more internet domain names from the Company.

 

A list of the approximately 7,500 internet domain names we acquired from Kae Yong Park (who became our majority shareholder in connection with the acquisition) is filed as Exhibit 99.3 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission June 25, 2014. We currently own approximately 1,276 cannabis related internet domain names.

 

Domain names we do not lease to customers will point to one or more of our websites based on the relevance of the internet domain name to the particular website.

 

We have already completed and launched the following websites:

 

WeedDepot.com  

RateMyStrain.com  

420Careers.com  

MJBizWire.com  

MarijuanaRecipes.com  

WikiWeed.com  

MarijuanaMD.com  

TheMarijuanaCompanies.com  

 

Weed Depot is a smart phone and internet platform directory with geo-mapping for dispensaries, doctors and clinics, head shops, tattoo parlors, and vape lounges. For mobile use, www.WeedDepot.com can be downloaded at Apple Apps and Google Play.

RateMyStrain.com - A site on which individuals or dispensaries can rate or insert new strains commenting on their use and effect. The site contains over 800 strains and descriptions.

 

420Careers.com - for anyone looking to hire or seeking a job in the cannabis space.

 

MJBizWire.com - Distribution of new events for companies in the cannabis space. Similar to PR Newswire, etc.

 

MarijuanaRecipes.com - A web site where subscribers can find hundreds of recipes and ingredients for creating snacks, meals and deserts using infused cannabis.

 

WikiWeed.com - WikiWeed.com is an informational, user-driven Wiki focused on both recreational and medical marijuana topics and information that allows collaborative editing of its content and structure by its users.

 

MarijuanaMD.com – A directory of medical doctors who are willing to issue medical marijuana cards to patients

 

TheMarijuanaCompanies.com– a directory of the company’s websites

 

Having completed the launch of the above-described websites, subject to the receipt of sufficient funding, which we currently do not have, our plan is to expand our sales and marketing activities with respect to these websites with a view to driving significant traffic to these websites, which in turn should make our directories more attractive to cannabis related enterprises that are trying to promote and advertise their business. We anticipate that it will cost approximately $35,000 per month ($400,000 per year) to effectively implement our sales and marketing plan. Currently, we do not have the requisite funds to implement our marketing plan.

 

Through our prior joint venture with Tumbleweed, we had been developing JointLovers.com as a website/mobile application. At this time, due to a lack of funding, we are not pursuing further development of the JointLovers.com app.

 

Subject to the receipt of sufficient funding, which we currently do not have, we intend to construct the following websites:

 

WeedMedia.com  

MarijuanaAds.com  

 

Once we commence development of these sites, we anticipate that it will take about six months and cost approximately $150,000 to construct and launch the foregoing websites. Currently, we do not have the requisite funds to build these websites. When and if these websites are constructed, we will also focus on the marketing these sites as well. We believe that the incremental marketing costs associated with the promotion of these to be built websites will not be material in relation to our total marketing budget.

 

Marketing and Distribution

 

Subject to the receipt of sufficient funding, which we currently do not have, we intend to expand the marketing and distribution of our services primarily through the following methods:

 

Direct Sales 

Internet based advertising 

Social Media based campaigns 

Attendance at trade related shows 

Radio and TV Advertising 

Advertising in Industry based publications 

 

Historically, our sales and marketing related activities have included search engine optimization, direct selling efforts, direct mail, electronic mail, social media, and online advertising. We have historically engaged companies to assist us in our sales and marketing related activities: Hemp Media (provides online (Internet, smart phone and mobile device content to our business), New Times (print advertising), the musician Snoop Dogg (promotion of our Company and its business), and a nationally recognized men’ magazine (print advertising). Currently, we are not engaging in any meaningful sales/marketing activities due to a lack of operating capital.

Competition

 

We expect to compete for consumer traffic with traditional, offline local business guides and directories and with other online providers of local and web search on the basis of a number of factors, including volume of traffic to our websites, the reliability of our content, and the breadth, depth and timeliness of information. We also expect to compete for a share of local businesses’ overall advertising budgets with traditional, offline media companies and other Internet marketing providers on the basis of a number of factors, including the comprehensive nature of our online directories, effectiveness of our advertising solutions and our pricing structure. Our competitors are expected to include the following types of businesses:

 

(1) Offline . We expect to compete with offline media companies and service providers who may have existing advertising relationships with local businesses. Services provided by competitors are expected to range from yellow pages listings to direct mail campaigns to advertising and listings services on local newspapers, magazines, television and radio. 

 

(2) Online. dWe expect to compete with Internet search engines, such as, Google, Yahoo! and Bing and online dating applications such as match.com. We also expect to compete with various other online service providers and review and social media websites. 

 

Currently, the Company’s primary online competitors are Weedmaps and Leafly, each an online directory of medical marijuana dispensaries and doctors, and Match.com, latinopeoplemeet.com, my420mate.com, 420singles.com, jdate.com/en-us, blackpeoplemeet.com, each online dating applications. With 45 brands, including Tinder and Plenty of Fish, Match. Com is the largest group of dating sites in the word. Competition in the online dating space is primarily about marketing and originality and we believe the Crush apps group is among the more appealing of the smaller apps in the dating space.  With the Joint Lovers app, Crush has the advantage of advertising and marketing on our owned or affiliated web sites.

 

Neither Weedmaps nor Leafly currently serve the legal recreational market. Accordingly, we consider these companies a competitor only with respect to medical dispensaries/doctors, and not otherwise. Currently, our competitors are much larger than we are and have substantially greater financial resources than we do. Once we attain a high level of traffic to our websites, of which there can be no assurance, we believe that we will be able to compete effectively against these companies with respect to medical dispensaries/doctors, as we expect our pricing to be much lower than that offered by either of them. The Company is not currently aware of any other online directory of cannabis related products and services.

 

Customers

 

We have not yet realized any significant revenues from our operations, although Crush Mobile has realized limited revenues. We expect our customers to consist of individuals interested in online dating and the various businesses engaged in the lawful sale and distribution of cannabis and hemp related products, including retail shops, medical dispensaries, head shops, growers, distributors, suppliers, vendors, and the like. Our customers may also include legal, marketing, and event production companies seeking to serve the cannabis industry.

 

To the extent practicable from a business standpoint, we intend to diversify our customer base, so that we are not dependent on any particular customer.

 

Personnel

 

As of April 2, 2018, we had three full time employees, in addition to a number of subcontractors and consultants.

 

Website/Portal Development

 

Over the next twelve months, we expect to incur aggregate website development costs and expenses of approximately $35,000 related to the development of our websites and related technology and services. Our ability to engage in planned website and related technology development is subject to the availability of sufficient funds, which we currently do not have. If we are unable to fund necessary research and development, we will be at a competitive disadvantage and our business will be materially and adversely affected.

 

Intellectual Property

 

In general, we rely primarily on a combination of trade secrets, copyright and trademark laws, and confidentiality procedures to protect our technology. Due to the technological change that characterizes our business, we believe that the improvement of existing services, reliance upon trade secrets and proprietary know-how and the development of new services are generally as important as patent protection in establishing and maintaining a competitive advantage.


7



Circumstances outside our control could pose a threat to our intellectual property rights. For example, effective intellectual property protection may not be available in the United States or other countries in which we operate. Also, the efforts we have taken to protect our proprietary rights may not be sufficient or effective. Any significant impairment of our intellectual property rights could harm our business or our ability to compete. Also, protecting our intellectual property rights is costly and time-consuming. Any unauthorized disclosure or use of our intellectual property could make it more expensive to do business and harm our operating results.

 

Companies in the internet, media and other industries may own large numbers of patents, copyrights and trademarks and may frequently request license agreements, threaten litigation or file suit against us based on allegations of infringement or other violations of intellectual property rights. We may in the future face allegations that we have infringed the trademarks, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property rights of third parties, including our competitors and non-practicing entities. As we face increasing competition and as our business grows, we will likely face claims of infringement.

 

Governmental Regulation

 

In general, as a company conducting business on the internet, we are subject to a number of foreign and domestic laws and regulations relating to consumer protection, information security, data protection and privacy, among other things. In the area of information security and data protection, for example, the laws in several states require companies to implement specific information security controls to protect certain types of information. Likewise, all but a few states have laws in place requiring companies to notify users if there is a security breach that compromises certain categories of their information. Foreign data protection, privacy, and other laws and regulations can be more restrictive than those in the United States. Any failure on our part to comply with these laws may subject us to significant liabilities.

 

The state laws, rules and regulations governing the possession, use, sale and distribution of cannabis and products which may contain cannabis are constantly changing and evolving. Currently, the medicinal use of cannabis has been legalized in 29 states and Washington D.C. and 8 of the 29 states, comprised of Alaska, California, Colorado, Maine, Massachusetts, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington, plus the District of Columbia, have approved recreational consumer use of marijuana; but, pursuant to the federal Controlled Substances Act (“CSA”), the possession, use, sale and distribution of cannabis for recreational or medicinal purposes remains unauthorized and illegal . However, the state laws which authorize and regulate (or prohibit) the possession, use, sale and distribution of cannabis, as well as the federal laws prohibiting the same do not currently apply to our business as we are not engaged or participating in the possession, cultivation, sale or distribution of cannabis or products which may contain cannabis. After consultation with special legal counsel regarding laws and regulation governing the possession, use, sale and distribution of cannabis and products which may contain cannabis, we do not believe that our business (online directories for businesses engaged in the lawful sale and distribution of cannabis and hemp related products) constitutes us engaging or participating in the possession, cultivation, sale or distribution of cannabis or products which may contain cannabis.  Our business is no different than a search engine (such as Google) that identifies companies engaged in the lawful sale of cannabis products.

 

Nevertheless, as the cannabis industry continues to evolve, increased regulation and oversight by local, state and federal agencies is likely. For example, more stringent local or state regulation of the cannabis industry could adversely affect the industry which would in turn adversely affect our business. In addition, because the industry is in its infancy, the enforcement of the CSA as it relates to those using and engaging in the cannabis industry, by the Department of Justice, also remains an area of uncertainty. For example, although we do not believe it probable, if the US Federal Government were to enforce the CSA on a nationwide basis, the cannabis industry would in effect be abolished, which would have a material and adverse effect on our business, rendering us unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Many of these laws and regulations are still evolving and could be interpreted in ways that could harm our business. The application and interpretation of these laws and regulations are often uncertain, particularly in the new and rapidly evolving industry in which we operate, and may be interpreted and applied inconsistently from country to country and inconsistently with our current policies and practices. There are also a number of legislative proposals pending before the U.S. Congress, various state legislative bodies and foreign governments concerning data protection that could affect us. For example, the European Commission is currently considering a data protection regulation imposing operational requirements on companies that receive personal data. The proposed requirements are different from those currently in place in the European Union, and the regulation may also include significant penalties for non-compliance.

 

Seasonality

 

We have not yet realized any significant revenues from our business operations, although Crush Mobile has realized limited revenues. Accordingly, we do not yet have a historical basis to determine whether our revenue will be subject to seasonal fluctuation.

Available Information

 

More information about us can be found by visiting our corporate Internet site, www.themarijuanacompanies.com. The public may read and copy any materials we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including our Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K, and all amendments to the foregoing, at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 100 F St., NE, Washington, DC 20549, on official business days during the hours of 10 AM to 3 PM. The public may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. The SEC maintains an Internet site (http://www.sec.gov) that contains reports, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K, and all amendments to the foregoing, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding the Company and other issuers that file electronically with the SEC.

 

Effect of Existing or Probable Governmental Regulations on the Business

 

Smaller Reporting Company

 

We are subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and we are subject to the disclosure requirements of Regulation S-K of the SEC, as a “smaller reporting company.”   That designation relieves us of some of the informational requirements of Regulation S-K.

 

Sarbanes/Oxley Act

 

We are also subject to certain provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.  The Sarbanes/Oxley Act created a strong and independent accounting oversight board to oversee the conduct of auditors of public companies and strengthens auditor independence.  It also requires steps to enhance the direct responsibility of senior members of management for financial reporting and for the quality of financial disclosures made by public companies; establishes clear statutory rules to limit, and to expose to public view, possible conflicts of interest affecting securities analysts; creates guidelines for audit committee members’ appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of public companies’ auditors; management assessment of our internal controls; auditor attestation of our internal controls; prohibits certain insider trading during pension fund blackout periods; requires companies and auditors to evaluate internal controls and procedures; and establishes a federal crime of securities fraud, among other provisions. Compliance with the requirements of the Sarbanes/Oxley Act will likely substantially increase our legal and accounting costs if we complete an acquisition, reorganization or merger.

 

Exchange Act Reporting Requirements

 

Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act requires all companies with securities registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act to comply with the rules and regulations of the SEC regarding proxy solicitations, as outlined in Regulation 14A. Matters submitted to our shareholders at a special or annual meeting thereof or pursuant to a written consent will require us to provide our shareholders with the information outlined in Schedules 14A or 14C of Regulation 14; preliminary copies of this information must be submitted to the SEC at least 10 days prior to the date that definitive copies of this information are forwarded to our shareholders.

 

We are required to file annual reports on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q with the Securities Exchange Commission on a regular basis, and are required to timely disclose certain material events (e.g., changes in corporate control; acquisitions or dispositions of a significant amount of assets other than in the ordinary course of business; and bankruptcy) in a Current Report on Form 8-K.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

 

BECAUSE WE CURRENTLY HAVE NEGATIVE CASH FLOW FROM OPERATIONS AND ONLY LIMITED CASH ON HAND, WE HAVE AN IMMEDIATE AND URGENT NEED TO RAISE ADDITIONAL FUNDS, WHICH FUNDS MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE ON ACCEPTABLE TERMS OR AT ALL.

 

We continue to have an immediate and extremely urgent need for additional capital. Since early 2015, we have experienced great difficulty raising capital from third parties. Our funding since early 2015 has been provided primarily by related party shareholders who have no obligation to provide us funding. The lack of operating capital continues to materially and adversely affect our business operations. Due to the lack of operating capital, we are unable to implement our business plan. We may not be able to raise the funds we need to fund our basic operations. If we do not receive a significant infusion of capital in the near term, it is unlikely that we will be able to continue as a going concern, in which case, investors would suffer a total loss of their investment in our Company.

 

If we cannot immediately raise funds on acceptable terms, we will not be able to complete the construction of our planned websites/portals, effectively market our services, execute our business plan, take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated requirements. We may be unable to secure sufficient funding to continue operations and effect planned transactions, in which case you would suffer a total loss of your investment. If we are unable to obtain necessary funding, there will be a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

THERE IS SUBSTANTIAL DOUBT ABOUT OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN.

 

Our current independent registered public accounting firm issued an opinion on our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, which states that the financial statements were prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern and further states that our recurring losses from operations and inability to generate sufficient operating cash flow raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. As of April 2, 2018, we had only de-minimis amount of cash on hand.

 

The Company has accumulated losses of $21,926,295 and has had sustained negative cash flows from operating activities since inception (May 2008). These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the recoverability of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company raised aggregate gross proceeds of $635,049 in capital through the issuance of notes payable and $25,000 through the issuance of common stock.  Management plans to (i) raise additional capital as soon as possible, to fund continued operations of the Company and (ii) eventually to generate profits from operations.

 

In the event the Company does not generate sufficient funds from revenues or financing through the issuance of its common stock or from debt financing, the Company will be unable to fully implement its business plan and pay its obligations as they become due, any of which circumstances would have a material adverse effect on its business prospects, financial condition, and results of operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be required should the Company be unable to recover the value of its assets or satisfy its liabilities.

 

WE ARE AN EARLY-STAGE COMPANY WITH AN UNPROVEN BUSINESS MODEL, WHICH MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO EVALUATE OUR CURRENT BUSINESS AND FUTURE PROSPECTS.

 

We have a history of operating losses and negative cash flows. We have not yet launched all of our planned websites/portals. The market for cannabis related directories/advertising is new and as yet untested. As a result, the revenue and income potential of our business and our market are unproven. In addition, we have no historical data with respect to directory listing rates (including renewals) for our services because we have not yet sold any subscriptions. Further, because of our limited operating history and because the market for web-based cannabis related directories is relatively new and rapidly evolving, we have limited insight into trends that may emerge and affect our business. We may make errors in predicting and reacting to relevant business trends, which could harm our business.

 

Before investing, you should consider an investment in our stock in light of the risks, uncertainties and difficulties frequently encountered by early-stage companies in new and rapidly evolving markets such as ours. We may not be able to successfully address any or all of these risks. Failure to adequately do so could cause our business, results of operations and financial condition to suffer.

WE HAVE A LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY IN AN EVOLVING INDUSTRY, WHICH MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO EVALUATE OUR FUTURE PROSPECTS AND MAY INCREASE THE RISK THAT WE WILL NOT BE SUCCESSFUL.

 

We have a limited operating history in an evolving industry that may not develop as expected, if at all. This short operating history makes it difficult to assess our future prospects. You should consider our business and prospects in light of the risks and difficulties we may encounter in this rapidly evolving industry. These risks and difficulties include our ability to, among other things:

 

Secure the capital needed to fund our business plan; 

increase the number of users of our website, the number of paid subscribers and other content on our platform and our revenue; 

manage, measure and demonstrate the effectiveness of our advertising solutions and attract and retain new advertising clients, many of which may only have limited or no online advertising experience; 

successfully compete with existing and future providers of other forms of offline and online advertising/dating; 

successfully compete with other companies that are currently in, or may in the future enter, the business of online dating or providing information regarding cannabis related businesses; 

successfully expand our business in new and existing markets, both domestic and international; 

successfully develop and deploy new features and products; 

avoid interruptions or disruptions in our service or slower than expected load times; 

develop a scalable, high-performance technology infrastructure that can efficiently and reliably handle increased usage, as well as the deployment of new features and products; 

hire, integrate and retain talented sales and other personnel; 

effectively manage rapid growth in our sales force, personnel and operations; and 

effectively partner with other companies. 

 

If the demand for information regarding cannabis related businesses does not develop as we expect, or if we fail to address the needs of this demand, our business will be harmed. We may not be able to successfully address these risks and difficulties or others, including those described elsewhere in these risk factors. Failure to adequately address these risks and difficulties could harm our business and cause our operating results to suffer.

 

WE HAVE A HISTORY OF LOSSES. BECAUSE WE CURRENTLY HAVE MINIMAL REVENUES AND EXPECT OUR OPERATING EXPENSES TO INCREASE IN THE FUTURE, WE MAY NEVER BECOME PROFITABLE.

 

Since we ceased to be a shell company within the meaning of applicable securities laws in early 2014, we have experienced net losses and negative operating cash flows. As of December 31, 2017, we had an accumulated deficit of $21,926,295. We commenced business operations late in the first quarter of 2014. We incurred net losses of $1,242,885 and $1,965,081 during the years ended December 31, 2017, and 2016 respectively. We will likely incur significant net losses into the second quarter of 2018 and possibly longer. While we are unable to predict accurately our future operating expenses, subject to receipt of additional capital, we expect these expenses to increase substantially, as we, among other things:

 

expand our domestic selling and marketing activities; 

continue the building of our websites/portals;  

develop new products and technologies; 

upgrade our operational and financial systems, procedures and controls; 

hire additional personnel, including additional executive, administrative and technical staff; and 

 

We commenced business operations in early 2014. We have generated only minimal revenues. We will need to generate substantial revenues to achieve and maintain profitability. If we fail to generate such revenues, we will continue to experience losses indefinitely. We may not be able to achieve or maintain profitability. We also may fail to accurately estimate and assess our increased operating expenses as we expand our operations. If our operating expenses exceed our expectations, our financial performance will be adversely affected, which will likely cause the price of our common stock to decline.

 

ADDITIONAL FUNDING WILL BE DILUTIVE TO STOCKHOLDERS OR MAY IMPOSE OPERATIONAL RESTRICTIONS.

 

Any additional equity financing will be dilutive to our stockholders, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants, which may limit our operating flexibility. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity securities or securities convertible into or exercisable for equity securities, the percentage ownership of our then existing stockholders will be reduced. These stockholders may experience additional dilution in net book value per share and any additional equity securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of the holders of our common stock.

WE RELY ON TRAFFIC TO OUR WEBSITE FROM SEARCH ENGINES SUCH AS GOOGLE, YAHOO! AND BING. IF OUR WEBSITE FAILS TO RANK PROMINENTLY IN UNPAID SEARCH RESULTS, TRAFFIC TO OUR WEBSITE COULD DECLINE AND OUR BUSINESS WOULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.

 

Our success depends in part on our ability to attract users through unpaid Internet search results on search engines such as Google, Yahoo! and Bing. The number of users we attract to our website from search engines is due in large part to how and where our website ranks in unpaid search results. These rankings can be affected by a number of factors, many of which are not in our direct control, and they may change frequently. For example, a search engine may change its ranking algorithms, methodologies or design layouts. As a result, links to our website may not be prominent enough to drive traffic to our website, and we may not be in a position to influence the results. In some instances, search engine companies may change these rankings in order to promote their own competing products or services or the products or services of one or more of our competitors. We believe that other websites have experienced fluctuations in search result rankings in the past, and we anticipate fluctuations in the future. Any reduction in the number of users directed to our website could adversely impact our business and results of operations.

 

We expect that Google in particular will be the most significant source of traffic to our website. Our success will depend on our ability to maintain a prominent presence in search results for queries regarding local cannabis related businesses on Google. Google may remove links to our website from portions of its web search product, and may promote its own competing services, including Google’s local services, in its search results. Given the large volume of traffic to our website we are expecting from Google and the importance of the placement and display of results of a user’s search, if Google were to take any of these actions in the future, there could be a substantial negative effect on our business and results of operations.

 

IF USERS DO NOT VALUE THE QUALITY AND RELIABILITY OF THE CONTENT THAT WE DISPLAY ON OUR PLATFORM, THEY MAY STOP OR REDUCE THE USE OF OUR SERVICES, WHICH COULD ADVERSELY IMPACT THE GROWTH OF OUR BUSINESS.

 

Our success depends on the quality of the reviews and other content that we show on our platform, including whether they are helpful, up-to-date, unbiased, relevant, and reliable. If users do not value the content on our platform, they may stop or reduce the use of our services, and traffic to our websites will decline. If our user traffic declines, our advertisers may stop or reduce the amount of advertising on our platform. As a result, our business could be negatively affected if we fail to obtain high quality content, or if the content we display is perceived to be unhelpful, out-of-date, biased, irrelevant, or unreliable. We must therefore ensure that our services and features are attractive to users, and encourage them to contribute. In addition, users who contribute content to our platform may provide content to our competitors or subsequently remove their content from our platform. If they do so, the value of our content may decline relative to other available services, and our business may be harmed.

 

While we attempt to filter or remove content that may be offensive, biased, unreliable or otherwise unhelpful, we cannot guarantee the effectiveness or adequacy of these efforts. If we fail to filter or remove a significant amount of content that is biased, unreliable, or otherwise unhelpful, or if we mistakenly filter or remove a significant amount of valuable content, our reputation and brand may be harmed, users may stop using our services and our business and results of operations could be adversely affected.

 

OUR PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS OWN A LARGE PERCENTAGE OF OUR VOTING STOCK AND COULD DELAY OR PREVENT A CHANGE IN OUR CORPORATE CONTROL OR OTHER ACTIONS REQUIRING STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL, EVEN IF FAVORED BY OUR OTHER STOCKHOLDERS.

 

Immediately prior to this offering, our directors and principal stockholders Kae Yong Park, and John Lemak (and affiliated entities) beneficially owned approximately 57.5% of our outstanding common stock (includes warrants to purchase 10,130,285 shares of common stock). These stockholders together could effectively control all matters requiring approval by our stockholders, including the election of all directors and approval of significant corporate transactions.


12



THERE HAS BEEN VIRTUALLY NO PUBLIC MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK, AND ITS PRICE HAS BEEN AND IS EXPECTED TO BE HIGHLY VOLATILE.

 

There has been virtually no public market for our common stock, and we cannot assure you that an active public market for our common stock will develop or be sustained in the future. Our common stock is quoted in the over the counter market (OTCQB), the market for which is highly illiquid, and the quoted price of our common stock is likely not indicative of the underlying value of our common stock.

 

The market price of our common stock has been and is likely to continue to be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a number of factors, some of which are beyond our control, including:

 

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

demand for our services; 

fluctuations in revenues/expenses; 

changes in our pricing policies or those of our competitors; 

changes in government regulations; 

quarterly variations in our operating expenses; 

our technological capabilities to accommodate any future growth in our operations or our customers; and 

imbalances between the supply and demand for shares of common stock in the over the counter market. 

 

Further, the stock market has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have particularly affected the market price of the stock of many internet-related companies, and that often have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies. Market fluctuations such as these may seriously harm the market price of our common stock. In the past, securities class action suits have been filed following periods of market volatility in the price of a company's securities. If such an action were instituted, we would incur substantial costs and a diversion of management attention and resources, which would seriously harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

FUTURE SALES OF OUR COMMON STOCK MAY CAUSE OUR STOCK PRICE TO DECLINE.

 

Sales of a large number of shares of our common stock in the market after this offering, or the belief that these sales could occur, could cause a significant drop in the market price of our common stock. Of the 129,828,741 shares we had outstanding as of April 2, 2018, approximately 38,241,793 shares will become freely tradable upon the effectiveness of our currently pending S-1 under the Securities Act. Consequently, the price of our common stock could drop substantially following the effectiveness of the Registration.

 

WE DO NOT INTEND TO PAY DIVIDENDS.

 

We have not declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain any future earnings to fund growth and, therefore, do not expect to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. See "Dividend Policy" for additional information regarding our dividend policy.

 

BECAUSE WE EXPECT TO DERIVE SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF OUR FUTURE REVENUE FROM DIRECTORY LISTING FEES FOR OUR SERVICES AS WELL AS ADVERTISING FEES FROM OUR WEBSITES/PORTALS, ANY FAILURE OF THESE SERVICES TO SATISFY CUSTOMER DEMANDS OR TO ACHIEVE WIDESPREAD MARKET ACCEPTANCE WILL SERIOUSLY HARM OUR BUSINESS.

 

We expect that our revenues will come from listing fees from our cannabis related directories, as well as from advertising fees from such directories. We currently have no subscribers and only a de minimis amount of advertising revenue. Our ability to generate revenues depends on our ability to secure paid directory listings and establish our advertiser base. To do so, we must convince prospective advertisers of the benefits of our services. We must also convince prospective advertisers that our advertising services work to their benefit. Many of these businesses are more accustomed to using more traditional methods of advertising, such as newspapers or print yellow pages directories. Failure to establish our subscriber/advertiser base will harm our business.


13



We expect that advertisers will not typically have long-term obligations to purchase our services. In addition, we expect to rely heavily on advertising spending by small and medium-sized local businesses, which have historically experienced high failure rates and often have limited advertising budgets. As a result, we may experience attrition in our advertisers in the ordinary course of business resulting from several factors, including losses to competitors, lower priced competitors, perceptions that our advertising solutions are unnecessary or ineffective, declining advertising budgets, closures and bankruptcies. We must continually add new subscribers/advertisers both to replace advertisers who choose not to renew their advertising or who go out of business, or otherwise fail to fulfill their advertising contracts with us, and to grow our business. Our advertisers’ decisions to renew depend on a number of factors, including the degree of satisfaction with our services and their ability to continue their operations and spending levels. The ratings and reviews that businesses receive from our users may also affect advertising decisions by current and prospective advertisers. For instance, favorable ratings and reviews, on the one hand, could be perceived as obviating the need to advertise, and unfavorable ratings and reviews, on the other, could discourage businesses from advertising to an audience they perceive as hostile or cause them to form a negative opinion of our services and user base which could discourage them from doing business with us.

 

If our advertisers increase their rates of non-renewal or if we experience significant advertiser attrition or contract breach, or if we are unable to attract new advertisers in numbers greater than the number of advertisers that we lose, our client base will decrease and our business, financial condition and results of operations would be harmed.

 

We may be unable to attain a sufficient number of subscribers and/or advertising customers to achieve our business objectives and we cannot assure you that sufficient numbers of subscribers and/or advertising customers will be acquired to achieve profitability. If we are unable to obtain a significant number of subscribers and/or advertising customers for our websites/portals, we will not realize the revenues we are expecting and there will be a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. As a result, if for any reason revenues from our cannabis directory related services or advertising do not materialize as rapidly as we anticipate, our operating results and our business will be significantly impaired. If our cannabis related directories or advertising services fail to meet the needs of our target customers, or if it does not compare favorably in price and performance to competing services, our growth will be limited.

 

Our services may not achieve market acceptance. Our future financial performance also will depend, in part, on our ability to diversify our offerings by successfully developing, introducing and gaining customer acceptance of new services. We cannot assure you, however, that we will be successful in achieving market acceptance of any new services that we bring to market or that we will be able to secure contracts for paid directory listings/advertising on our Websites/Portals. Furthermore, there is a possibility that diversifying our existing offerings could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

THE MARKET FOR OUR SERVICES IS EMERGING, AND IF WE ARE NOT SUCCESSFUL IN PROMOTING AWARENESS OF OUR SERVICES, OUR BUSINESS WILL NOT SUCCEED.

 

Although legalization of marijuana is a relatively recent development, there has been a great deal of public focus on legalization for both recreational and medicinal purposes. Although we believe that cannabis related businesses are acutely aware of the need to market their products and services, in order for us to attract subscribers to our directories and paid advertising customers, we need to actively promote these services, so as to increase awareness and acceptance of these services. In addition, there may be a time-limited opportunity to achieve and maintain a significant share of the market for these services due in part to the emerging nature of these markets and the substantial resources available to our existing and potential competitors.

 

At this time, we do not have the capital necessary to promote and market our services, so we cannot assure you that we will be successful in this effort. If we are not successful in promoting market awareness and acceptance of our cannabis related directory and advertising services, we will not succeed in implementing our business plan. If cannabis related businesses do not recognize the need to market their products, then the market for our cannabis related directory and advertising services may develop more slowly than we expect, which could adversely affect our operating results. Developing and maintaining awareness of our cannabis related directory and advertising services is critical to achieving widespread acceptance of our services. Furthermore, we believe that the importance of product awareness will increase as competition in our market develops. Successful promotion of our services will depend largely on the effectiveness of our marketing efforts and on our ability to develop reliable and useful services, at competitive prices.

 

If we fail to successfully promote our services, due to a lack of capital or otherwise, or if our expenses to promote and maintain such services are greater than anticipated, our results of operations and financial condition will suffer.


14



WE FACE COMPETITION FROM BETTER ESTABLISHED COMPANIES THAT MAY HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY GREATER RESOURCES, WHICH COULD PREVENT US FROM GENERATING REVENUE OR ACHIEVING PROFITABILITY.

 

The market for our services is competitive and is likely to become even more so in the future. Increased competition could result in pricing pressures, reduced sales, reduced margins or the failure of our services to achieve or maintain more widespread market acceptance, any of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

Currently, the Company’s primary online competitors are Weedmaps and Leafly, each an online directory of medical marijuana dispensaries and doctors, and Match.com, latinopeoplemeet.com, my420mate.com, 420singles.com, jdate.com/en-us, blackpeoplemeet.com, each online dating applications. With 45 brands, including Tinder and Plenty of Fish, Match. Com is the largest group of dating sites in the word. Competition in the online dating space is primarily about marketing and originality and we believe the Crush apps group is among the more appealing of the smaller apps in the dating space.  With the Joint Lovers app, Crush has the advantage of advertising and marketing on our 15 owned or affiliated web sites.

 

Neither Weedmaps nor Leafly currently serve the legal recreational market. Accordingly, we consider these companies a competitor only with respect to medical dispensaries/doctors, and not otherwise. Currently, our competitors are much larger than we are and have substantially greater financial resources than we do. Once we attain a high level of traffic to our websites, of which there can be no assurance, we believe that we will be able to compete effectively against these companies with respect to medical dispensaries/doctors, as we expect our pricing to be much lower than that offered by either of them. The Company is not currently aware of any other online directory of cannabis related products and services.

 

Many of our current and potential competitors enjoy substantial competitive advantages, such as:

 

higher levels of internet traffic 

greater name recognition and larger marketing budgets and resources; 

established marketing relationships and access to larger customer bases; and 

substantially greater financial, technical and other resources. 

 

As a result, these competitors may be able to respond more quickly and effectively than we can to new or changing opportunities, technologies, standards or customer requirements. For all of the foregoing reasons, we may not be able to compete successfully against our current and future competitors.

 

WE MAY NOT BE SUCCESSFUL IN SECURING LISTING RENEWALS, IN WHICH CASE OUR REVENUES AND OPERATING RESULTS WILL BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.

 

Our future success depends in part on achieving substantial revenue from listing fees for our cannabis related directory services. We anticipate that any listing fees for these cannabis related directory services will run on a monthly or annual renewal cycle. Our customers will have no obligation to renew their listings upon expiration of the monthly or annual renewal cycle. We cannot assure you that we will generate significant revenue from renewals. In order to achieve our long term revenue objectives, we will need to build a sizable base of customers that renew their listings at the end of each cycle. To date, we have not been able to build a meaningful customer base. If we are unable to sell significant renewals, there will be a material adverse effect on our long term revenue potential and our operating results.

 

OUR TECHNOLOGY MAY FAIL TO KEEP PACE WITH THE RAPID CHANGE ASSOCIATED WITH THE INTERNET.

 

The success of our cannabis related directories/web portals will depend on the functionality and reliability of the technology incorporated into our websites/portals. Ongoing evolution of the internet and search technologies will require us to continually improve the functionality, features and reliability of our technology. Any failure of our technology to keep pace with the rapid growth and technological change of the Internet/search technologies will impair the market acceptance of our directory and advertising services, which in turn will harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.


15



OUR EXISTING PERSONNEL AND INFRASTRUCTURE RESOURCES HAVE BEEN STRAINED BY OUR RECENT BUSINESS ACTIVITIES, AND IF WE ARE UNABLE TO IMPLEMENT APPROPRIATE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES TO MANAGE THESE ACTIVITIES, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY IMPLEMENT OUR BUSINESS PLAN.

 

Due to a lack of operating capital, we have been forced to reduce our staffing levels, which has placed, and will continue to place, a strain on our management, administrative, operational and financial infrastructure. Our future success will depend in part upon the ability of our management and other personnel to manage our operational activity effectively. This will require us to hire and train additional personnel to manage our operations, for which we do not currently have the necessary capital. In addition, we will be required to continue to improve our operational, financial and management controls and our reporting systems and procedures. If we fail to successfully manage any future operational growth, implementation of our business plan will be materially and adversely affected.

 

THE LOSS OF KEY EMPLOYEES AND TECHNICAL PERSONNEL OR OUR INABILITY TO HIRE ADDITIONAL QUALIFIED PERSONNEL COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR BUSINESS.

 

Our success depends in part upon the continued service of our senior management personnel, including our EVP, John Venners, who is on an interim basis acting as our ranking executive officer. Our success will also depend on our future ability to attract and retain highly qualified technical, managerial and marketing personnel. The market for qualified personnel has historically been, and we expect that it will continue to be, intensely competitive. We cannot assure you that we will continue to be successful in attracting or retaining such personnel. The loss of certain key employees, such as our EVP or future President/CEO, or our inability to attract and retain other qualified employees could have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

IF WE ACQUIRE ANY COMPANIES OR TECHNOLOGIES IN THE FUTURE, THEY COULD PROVE DIFFICULT TO INTEGRATE, DISRUPT OUR BUSINESS, DILUTE STOCKHOLDER VALUE AND ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR OPERATING RESULTS.

 

We may acquire or make investments in complementary companies, services and technologies in the future. For example, as disclosed elsewhere herein, we have completed the acquisition of a company that develops online dating applications. We have only recently consummated this acquisitions, and therefore our ability as an organization to make acquisitions or investments is unproven. Acquisitions and investments involve numerous risks, including:

 

difficulties in integrating operations, technologies, services and personnel; 

diversion of financial and management resources from existing operations; 

risk of entering new markets; 

potential loss of key employees; and 

inability to generate sufficient revenues to offset acquisition or investment costs. 

 

In addition, if we finance acquisitions by issuing convertible debt or equity securities, or use our securities as acquisition currency, our existing stockholders percentage interest in the company will be diluted which could affect the market price of our stock. As a result, if we fail to properly evaluate and execute acquisitions or investments, our business and prospects may be seriously harmed.

 

BECAUSE COMPETITION FOR OUR TARGET EMPLOYEES IS INTENSE, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN THE HIGHLY SKILLED EMPLOYEES WE NEED TO SUPPORT OUR PLANNED GROWTH.

 

To execute our business plan, we must attract and retain highly qualified personnel. We need to hire additional personnel in virtually all operational areas, including sales and marketing, operations and technical support, customer service and administration. Competition for these personnel is intense, especially for persons with high levels of experience in designing and developing Internet-related services. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in attracting and retaining qualified personnel. All of the companies with which we compete for experienced personnel have greater resources than we currently have. If we fail to attract new personnel or retain and motivate our current personnel, our business and future growth prospects could be severely harmed.

 

OUR QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS MAY FLUCTUATE SIGNIFICANTLY, AND THESE FLUCTUATIONS MAY CAUSE OUR STOCK PRICE TO FALL.

 

Our quarterly operating results will likely vary in the future as a result of fluctuations in any revenues and operating expenses. Subject to receipt of additional funding, we expect that our operating expenses will increase substantially in the future as we expand our selling and marketing activities, increase our website development efforts and hire additional personnel. In addition, our operating expenses may fluctuate in the future, as a result of the following factors, among others:


16



a concentration of marketing expenses for activities such as trade shows and advertising campaigns; 

a concentration of general and administrative expenses, such as recruiting expenses and professional services fees; and 

a concentration of website development costs. 

 

As a result, it is possible that in some future periods, our results of operations may be below the expectations of current or potential investors. If this occurs, the price of our common stock will likely decline.

 

BECAUSE WE EXPECT TO RECOGNIZE REVENUE FROM ANY FUTURE FEES FOR DIRECTORY LISTINGS RATABLY OVER THE TERM OF THE LISTING AGREEMENT, DOWNTURNS IN SALES MAY NOT BE IMMEDIATELY REFLECTED IN OUR REPORTED REVENUES.

 

We expect that a substantial portion of our future revenues will come from listing fees from our cannabis related directories (although we currently are not realizing any revenue from this service). Prospective customers will have the option to list on a monthly or an annual basis and may or may not renew their listings at the end of the period. For annual listings, we will bill customers for the entire listing period and would then recognize revenue from those annual listings over the terms of the listing period. As a result, we anticipate that a significant portion of any revenues we report in future quarters will be deferred revenue from listing agreements entered into and paid for during previous quarters. Because of this deferred revenue, the revenues we report in any quarter or series of quarters may mask significant downturns in sales and the market acceptance of our cannabis related directories.

 

WE MAY BE SUED BY THIRD PARTIES FOR ALLEGED INFRINGEMENT OF THEIR PROPRIETARY RIGHTS.

 

The internet industries are characterized by the existence of a large number of patents, trademarks and copyrights and by frequent litigation based on allegations of patent infringement or other violations of intellectual property rights. As the number of entrants into our market increases, the possibility of an intellectual property claim against us grows. Our technologies and services may not be able to withstand any third-party claims or rights against their use. Any intellectual property claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming and expensive to litigate or settle, and could divert management attention from executing our business plan and thus could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO DEVELOP ACCEPTABLE NEW SERVICES OR ENHANCEMENTS TO OUR EXISTING SERVICES AT A RATE REQUIRED BY OUR RAPIDLY CHANGING MARKET.

 

Our future success depends on our ability to develop new services or enhancements to our existing services that keep pace with rapid technological developments and that address the changing needs of our customers. We will need to continuously modify and enhance our technologies to keep pace with changes in internet-related software, browser and search engine technologies. We may not be successful in either developing such services or timely introducing them to the market. Currently, due to lack of operating capital, we do not have the personnel needed to rapidly develop new services or enhancements to existing services. In addition, uncertainties about the timing and nature of new technologies, or modifications to existing technologies, could increase our research and development expenses. The failure of our services to operate effectively with existing and future technologies will limit or reduce the market for our services, result in customer dissatisfaction and seriously harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

OTHER VENDORS MAY DEVELOP SERVICES SIMILAR TO OURS, AND THEREBY REDUCE DEMAND FOR OUR SERVICES.

 

In the future, search engine providers may enhance or develop services that include functions that are currently provided by our services. If users of our directories are able to effectively locate cannabis related products and services through advanced search engine applications, the demand for our and services could decrease. Furthermore, even if our technology provides greater functionality and is more effective than services offered by search engine companies, potential customers might accept this limited functionality in lieu of purchasing enhancements of our services.

 

OUR SYSTEMS MAY BE VULNERABLE TO SECURITY RISKS OR SERVICE DISRUPTIONS THAT COULD HARM OUR BUSINESS.

 

The servers we utilize are vulnerable to physical or electronic break-ins and service disruptions, which could lead to interruptions, delays, loss of data or the inability to process searches. Such events could be very expensive to remedy, could damage our reputation and could discourage existing and potential customers from using our services. We may experience break-ins in the future. Any such events could substantially harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.


17



BECAUSE OUR SYSTEMS ARE COMPLEX AND MAY BE DEPLOYED IN A WIDE VARIETY OF ENVIRONMENTS, THEY MAY HAVE ERRORS OR DEFECTS THAT USERS IDENTIFY AFTER DEPLOYMENT, WHICH COULD HARM OUR REPUTATION AND OUR BUSINESS.

 

Systems as complex as ours frequently contain undetected errors when first introduced or when new versions or enhancements are released. We have from time to time found errors/defects in our systems, and we may find such errors/defects in the future. The occurrence of errors/defects could adversely affect sales of our services and divert the attention of web development personnel from our website development efforts and cause significant customer relations problems.

 

RISKS RELATED TO OUR INDUSTRY

 

EVOLVING REGULATION OF THE CANNABIS INDUSTRY MAY AFFECT US ADVERSELY.

 

The state laws, rules and regulations governing the possession, use, sale and distribution of cannabis and products which may contain cannabis are constantly changing and evolving.  Currently, the medicinal use of cannabis has been legalized in 26 states and Washington D.C. and seven of 7 of the 26 states, comprised of Alaska, California, Colorado, Maine, Massachusetts, Oregon, and Washington, plus the District of Columbia, have approved recreational consumer use of marijuana; but, pursuant to the federal Controlled Substances Act (“CSA”), the possession, use, sale and distribution of cannabis for recreational or medicinal purposes remains unauthorized and illegal .  However, the state laws which authorize and regulate (or prohibit) the possession, use, sale and distribution of cannabis, as well as the federal laws prohibiting the same do not currently apply to our business as we are not engaged or participating in the possession, cultivation, sale or distribution of cannabis or products which may contain cannabis.

 

Nevertheless, as the cannabis industry continues to evolve, increased regulation and oversight by local, state and federal agencies is likely.  For example, more stringent local or state regulation of the cannabis industry could adversely affect the industry which would in turn adversely affect our business.  In addition, because the industry is in its infancy, the enforcement of the CSA as it relates to those using and engaging in the cannabis industry, by the Department of Justice, also remains an area of uncertainty.  For example, although we do not believe it probable, if the US Federal Government were to enforce the CSA on a nationwide basis, the cannabis industry would in effect be abolished, which would have a material and adverse effect on our business, rendering us unable to continue as a going concern. 

 

EVOLVING REGULATION OF THE INTERNET AND CELLULAR INDUSTRIES MAY AFFECT US ADVERSELY.

 

There are also a number of legislative proposals pending before the U.S. Congress, various state legislative bodies and foreign governments concerning data protection that could affect us. Imposition of internet and cellular use or other charges imposed by government agencies or by private organizations for accessing the internet and cellular services could have a negative impact on our business. Laws and regulations applying to the solicitation, collection or processing of personal or consumer information could affect our activities. Furthermore, any regulation imposing additional fees for internet or cellular use could result in a decline in the use and viability of internet and cellular communications, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

THE SUCCESS OF OUR BUSINESS DEPENDS IN PART ON THE CONTINUED GROWTH AND ACCEPTANCE OF THE INTERNET AND CELLULAR TECHNOLOGY AS INFORMATION GATHERING TOOLS.

 

Our revenues will depend in part on the continued acceptance of the internet and cellular services as information gathering tools for individuals. The internet and cellular systems may not continue to be viable media due to inadequate development of the necessary infrastructure, or timely development of complementary products, such as high-speed modems. Additionally, the internet and cellular systems could be adversely affected as information tools due to delays in the development or adoption of new standards and protocols to handle increased demands of internet/cellular activity, security, reliability, cost, ease-of-use, accessibility, and interest in internet usage and quality-of-service. If the internet and cellular services do not continue to be widespread informational media, demand for our Internet based directory and advertising services could be significantly reduced, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Market Information

 

Our common shares were approved for quotation on the OTCQB Bulletin Board (OTCQB) of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) under the symbol “NCAP” on May 12, 2009. There is currently only a very limited trading market for shares of our common stock. Management does not expect any active market to develop in our common stock unless and until we are able to implement our business plan. In any event, no assurance can be given that any active market for our common stock will ever develop or be maintained.

 

For any market that develops for our common stock, the sale of “restricted securities” (common stock) pursuant to Rule 144 of the SEC by members of management or any other person to whom any such securities may be issued in the future may have a substantial adverse impact on any such public market.  For information regarding the requirements for resale under Rule 144, see the heading “Rule 144” below. In addition, of the 129,828,741 shares we had outstanding as of April 2, 2018, approximately 38,241,793 shares recently became freely tradable upon the effectiveness under the Securities Act of the Registration Statement filed on March 21, 2018. Consequently, the price of our common stock could drop substantially following the effectiveness of the Registration Statement if significant shares begin to be sold.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION

 

This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are based on current management's expectations. These statements may be identified by their use of words like “plans,” “expect,” “aim,” “believe,” “projects,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and other expressions that indicate future events and trends. All statements that address expectations or projections about the future, including statements about our business strategy, expenditures, and financial results are forward-looking statements. We believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are accurate. However, we cannot assure the reader that such expectations will occur. Persons reviewing this Annual Report are cautioned that any forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties and actual results may differ materially from those included within the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors.  Such factors are discussed further below and also include general economic factors and conditions that may directly or indirectly impact our financial condition or results of operations.

 

Overview

 

On June 23, 2014, the Company acquired approximately 7,500 cannabis related Internet domain names from Kae Yong Park (who became our majority shareholder in connection with such acquisition). The list of domain names we acquired is filed as Exhibit 99.3 to the Form 8-K Current Report filed with the Commission on June 25, 2014. In consideration of the acquisition of these assets from Kae Yong Park, we issued her 78.5 million shares of our common stock. In addition, we issued a promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000, the payment of $400,000 of which is contingent upon our achieving $150,000 in monthly revenues. See Note 8 - Notes Payable Related Party and Note 13 - Commitments and Contingencies, in each case to the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed herewith.

 

The note was amended and restated to provide that the first $100,000 installment payment due under the Note would be made July 25, 2014 (earlier than required), in exchange for which Kae Yong Park agreed to waive all interest due over the term of the note. Kae Yong Park has waived the requirement that the Company pay the $100,000 due under the Amended and Restated Note, until August 25, 2014. Such $100,000 has since been paid to Ms. Park. The remaining balance of $400,000 is payable in thirty-six equal monthly installments, commencing on the fifteenth day following the first month the Company realizes at least $150,000 in gross revenue.

 

The Company has already launched several websites and portals and, subject to receipt of funding, intends to build additional websites/portals around its owned internet domain names. These websites/portals will serve as directories for businesses engaged in the lawful sale and distribution of cannabis and hemp related products.

 

The Company was previously a “shell company” within the meaning of applicable securities laws. The Company has ceased to be a “shell company” within the meaning of applicable securities laws in that the Company has raised capital, hired employees, leased space, acquired domain names, including prior to the acquisition described herein, engaged consultants and advisors, completed the construction and launch of its primary website, “WeedDepot.com’, negotiated vendor relationships and conducted extensive sales and marketing related activities, including through search engine optimization, direct selling efforts, direct mail, electronic mail, social media, and online advertising.

 

Recent Developments

 

During 2017, the Company sold 1,300,000 shares of its common stock, for aggregate net proceeds of $40,000.

 

In addition, between December 31, 2014 and through March 15, 2018, Kae Yong Park, a significant stockholder, and her spouse, Howard. R. Baer (collectively, “Park”), advanced an aggregate of $1,846,707 on a secured basis to the Company for short-term capital needs. During this period, the Company also repaid $284,340 of its secured debt to Park, recaptured $141,510 worth of payroll expenses for Park’s use of Company personnel, and $65,000 was assigned to an investor. Amounts recaptured for use of Company personnel have been treated as repayments on the Company’s Statements of Cash Flows. At April 2 2018, the Company had a note payable to Park for these advances of $1,355,857 which is secured by certain assets of the Company.


22



Between December 1, 2016, and March 29, 2018, the Company received proceeds of $699,499 from a related party and significant shareholder for which both interest bearing and non-interest bearing notes were issued. The notes, as extended, mature on June 30, 2018 with certain notes secured by certain of the Company’s URLs and websites (www.weedepot.com, www.ratemystrain.com, www.marijuanamd.com and www.420careers.com. The Company had total notes payable to the related party of $772,936 at April 2, 2018.

 

During 2016, we received an aggregate of $185,000 in connection with its joint venture with Tumbleweed Holdings, Inc. On February 29, 2016, in connection with this joint venture, we agreed to sell $150,000 of convertible notes which were to be funded in three equal installments of $50,000. Tumbleweed also agreed to provide an aggregate of $100,000 in funding to the joint venture, as discussed in Note 4 - Investment in Joint Venture.

 

Between February 29 and April 8, 2016, we received aggregate proceeds of $100,000 from the issuance of these convertible notes. The final $50,000 tranche was due April 29, 2016, but never paid. In connection with the settlement of the Tumbleweed litigation, on July 17, 2017, the $100,000 received was converted into 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

Between February 29 and May 6, 2016, the joint venture company received aggregate proceeds of $85,000 from Tumbleweed Holdings, the joint venture partner. The final $15,000 tranche of the joint venture investment was due April 29, 2016 but was never paid. In connection with the settlement of the Tumbleweed litigation, on July 17, 2017, the Company and Tumbleweed settled the litigation relating to the joint venture. As part of the settlement, all remaining amounts due from Tumbleweed were forgiven, and the company issued 850,000 shares of common stock to settle the previously received $85,000 in convertible debt

 

In May 2017, we signed a non-binding memorandum of terms to acquire Crush Mobile. On August 8, 2017, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire all the outstanding membership interests of Crush Mobile, LLC, which was amended by Amendment No. 1 dated January 4, 2018 (as amended, the “Agreement”). As reported in our form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 10, 2018, the Crush acquisition was closed January 8, 2018. Accordingly, Crush’s operations are not included in the financial statements of the company as of December 31, 2017. Under the terms of the Agreement, we acquired all the outstanding membership interests of Crush Mobile, in exchange for an aggregate of approximately 8 million shares of common stock, plus $80,000 in cash, payable within one year of closing. We also agreed to piggy-back registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock issuable to the sellers in connection with the acquisition. In connection with Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement, the parties waived the condition that the Company complete a funding of at least $500,000.

 

Crush Mobile’s assets consist primarily of trademarks, domain names, mobile dating applications and related software and intellectual property. Crush Mobile, with approximately nine hundred thousand members, has developed a group of dating sites with a presence in the Latino, Israeli and African American communities. Crush will also be incorporating Northsight’s "Joint Lovers" dating app, which concentrates on the Cannabis space, into its dating applications suite.

 

Effective February 1, 2018, we engaged Crush Mobile CEO, Sonya Kreizman, and Yosi Shemesh, as consultants. Ms. Kreizman and Mr. Shemesh will be paid $7,000 and $6,500 per month, respectively for their services.

 

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

 

The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued disclosure guidance for “critical accounting policies.” The SEC defines “critical accounting policies” as those that require the application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods.

 

Our significant accounting policies are described below. We anticipate that the following accounting policies will require the application of our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments:

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances exist that indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When indicators of impairment exist, an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows is used in measuring whether the carrying amount of the asset or related asset group is recoverable. Measurement of the amount of impairment, if any, is based upon the difference between the asset's carrying value and estimated fair value.


23



Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are provided in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ASC 740 Accounting for Income Taxes. A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net change during the year of deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion of all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

 

Provision for income taxes consists of federal and state income taxes in the United States. Due to uncertainty as to the realization of benefits from our deferred tax assets, including net operating loss carry-forwards and other tax credits, we have a full valuation allowance reserved against such assets. We expect to maintain this full valuation allowance at least in the near term.

 

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to fair values of financial instruments, taxes, and contingent liabilities, among others. We base our estimates on the limited historical experience we have and on other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which formed the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of our assets and liabilities.

 

Results of Operations

 

Year ended December 31, 2017 Compared to the year ended December 31, 2016

 

The Company incurred a net loss of approximately $1.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2017, as compared with a net loss of approximately $2 million during the comparable prior period.  The (all numbers approximate) $722,000 decrease in net loss is due primarily to a $458,000 decrease in losses from investments and equity investments (non-cash), a $131,000 decrease in loss on deposit (non-cash) a $283,000 decrease in executive compensation and a $65,000 decrease in rent – related party, partially offset by a $243,000 increase in general and administrative expense. The decrease in executive compensation is primarily due to a reduction in workforce and operations due to cash constraints in the current year.  The increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to an increase in warrant expense (non-cash expense) issued for debt consideration.  We expect our operating expenses to increase as we ramp up our operations in connection with the Crush acquisition, including website development and sales and marketing related activities.

 

Cash used in operating activities was approximately $489,000 during the year ended December 31, 2017 (about $41,000 per month), as compared with $673,000 during the comparable prior year (or about $56,000 per month). The (all numbers approximate) $185,000 decrease was primarily due to a decrease in net loss of $722,000, a $480,000 net increase in warrants issued as compensation, partially offset by a decrease in loss on deposit of $131,000, a decrease of $458,000 in losses on investment and equity investments, and a net increase in the change (decrease) in accounts payable of $282,000.

 

No cash was used by investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to approximately $28,000 used on 2016, which was due to the Company’s investments in its joint venture in 2016.

 

Cash provided by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2017 was approximately $475,000 as compared to approximately $693,000 in the prior comparable period. The $218,000 decrease was due to a decrease of $100,000 in proceeds from convertible note issuances and a $143,000 decrease in net proceeds from related party notes, partially offset by an increase of $25,000 in proceeds from the issuance of common stock. The company continues to be almost exclusively reliant on related parties for its funding needs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of April 2, 2018, we had limited cash on hand. Between January 1, and December 31, 2017, the Company received gross proceeds from related party debt agreements of $635,049. In addition, in order to fund our basic operations, between January 3 and March 30, 2018, (i) Kae Yong Park, a significant shareholder, and her spouse, Howard Baer (together, “Park”), have collectively made cash advances of $70,500, $7,000 of which has been repaid and (ii) John S. Lemak, a significant shareholder, made cash advances of $65,000. $141,510 of the amount owed Park has been offset against the amount owed to account for Park’s use of Company personnel, leaving a balance due Park of $1,355,857, as of April 2, 2018.

 

In January 2018, we agreed to sell up to $450,000 in principal amount of convertible notes for an aggregate purchase price of $405,000, in connection with which we sold a convertible note in the principal amount of $100,000 for a purchase price of $90,000.  The Company also issued 300,000 of the Company’s common stock as a commitment fee in conjunction with this note.

 

We are experiencing a severe and ever-increasing working capital deficiency (all numbers approximate). As of December 31, 2017 we had a working capital deficiency of $2.9 million, compared to a working capital deficiency of $2.8 million at December 31, 2016. The $100,000 increase in the working capital deficiency was due primarily to a $631,000 aggregate increase in accounts and notes payable - related party, partially offset by a $121,000 decrease in accounts payable, a $100,000 decrease in convertible notes payable and a $292,000 increase in prepaid expenses.

 

We continue to have an immediate and urgent need for additional capital. Since early 2015, we have experienced great difficulty raising capital from third parties. The lack of operating capital continues to materially and adversely affect our business operations. Neither Ms. Park, her spouse nor Mr. Lemak are under any obligation to provide any further funding to us. Ms. Park and her spouse are no longer able to provide ongoing advances to fund our operations, even on a limited basis.

 

Due to the lack of operating capital, we are unable to implement our business plan, even on a curtailed basis. If we do not receive a significant infusion of capital in the near term, it is unlikely that we will be able to continue as a going concern, in which case, investors would suffer a total loss of their investment in our Company.

 

We have not yet realized any significant operating revenues. Crush Mobile has realized limited operating revenues.  Although our operations have been scaled back due to our lack of operating capital, we continue to incur significant costs and expenses in connection with our basic operations and ongoing compliance costs associated with being a public company. Consequently, we are currently experiencing ongoing negative cash flows from operations.

 

As noted above, we have only minimal cash on hand. Our current cash on hand is insufficient to fund our operations and the implementation of our business plan. As a result, we have an immediate and urgent need for additional funds. We are seeking to raise funds from third parties, either in the form of debt or equity.

 

Based on our current business plan, we anticipate that our operating and website development activities will use approximately $100,000 in cash per month over the next twelve months, or $1.2 million. Currently we have virtually no cash on hand, and consequently, we are unable to implement our current business plan. We believe that our operations will not begin to generate positive cash flows until at least the fourth quarter of 2018 (assuming we secure sufficient funding in the near term to implement our business plan, which we currently do not have). Accordingly, we have an immediate and extremely urgent need for capital to fund our operating activities.

 

In order to remedy this liquidity deficiency, we are actively seeking to raise additional funds through the sale of equity and debt securities, and ultimately we will need to generate substantial positive operating cash flows. Our internal sources of funds will consist of cash flows from operations, but not until we begin to realize substantial revenues from the sale of services. As previously stated, we currently have only nominal revenue, and our operations are generating negative cash flows, and thus adversely affecting our liquidity. Although we are attempting to raise additional funds through equity and/or debt financing, we are having great difficulty in securing any significant funding from unrelated third parties. If we are able to secure sufficient funding in the near term to implement our business plan, we expect that our operations could begin to generate significant revenues during the fourth quarter 2018, which should ameliorate our liquidity deficiency. If we are unable to raise additional funds in the near term, we will not be able to implement our business plan, and it is unlikely that we will be able to continue as a going concern.


25



In the event we do not generate sufficient funds from revenues or financing through the issuance of common stock or from debt financing, we may be unable to fully implement our business plan and pay our obligations as they become due, any of which circumstances would have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition, and results of operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be required should the Company be unable to recover the value of its assets or satisfy its liabilities (see Note 3 to the Financial Statements - Liquidity/Going Concern).

 

Subject to the availability of funds, which we currently do not have, we expect to incur approximately $35,000 in website development expenditures over the next 12 months (included in the $1.2 million estimate of cash required over the next twelve months). The purpose of these expenditures will be for the development of various Websites/portals we intend to create and acquisition of additional domain names.

 

We expect to fund these website development expenditures through a combination of cash flows from operations and proceeds from equity financing. If we are unable to generate positive cash flows from operations, and/or raise additional funds (either through debt or equity), we will be unable to fund our website development expenditures, in which case, there could be an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

 

We intend to raise additional funds in the near term from the further sales of shares of common stock. Additional sales of common stock will reduce the percentage interest of existing shareholders in our company. Although it is possible, we do not believe it is likely that we will raise funds through the sale of debt securities in the near term.

 

As described above, In June, 2014, we issued Kae Yong Park a promissory note in the principal amount of $500,000, as partial consideration for the acquisition of approximately 7,500 cannabis related internet domain names. We have since paid $100,000 in principal to Ms. Park. The remaining balance of $400,000 is payable in thirty-six equal monthly installments, commencing on the fifteenth day following the first month we realize at least $150,000 in gross revenue. This remaining $400,000 balance is currently classified as a noncurrent liability. We believe that we will be able to make the approximate $11,000 monthly payment when (and if) we achieve the monthly $150,000 revenue threshold which triggers our repayment obligation.

 

In addition, as described above, as of April 2, 2018, we are indebted to Kae Park, a significant shareholder, and Howard Baer, her spouse, in the aggregate amount of $1,355,857, which is secured by the Company’s assets. As of April 13, 2016 (with an effective date of January 1, 2016), $564,000 of the principal due under the note evidencing this indebtedness is interest bearing at the rate of 10% annually with any remainder being non-interest bearing. The $50,000 advance made March 29, 2018 bears interest at 8%, is secured by the Company’s interest in Crush Mobile, and is due June 30, 2018. Otherwise, amounts due under the main note are payable on demand. If demand for payment is made, and we are unable to pay the amount due, we would be in default and Ms. Park and Mr. Baer would have the right to sell our assets to satisfy the amounts due them under the promissory note. In such event, shareholders of the company would lose their entire investment in the Company.

 

Further, as described above, between January 1, and December 31, 2017, we received proceeds of $572,299 from John Lemak (and affiliates), a related party and significant shareholder, for which both interest bearing and non-interest bearing notes were issued. The notes, as extended, mature on June 30, 2018 with certain notes secured by certain of the Company’s URLs and websites (www.weedepot.com, www.ratemystrain.com, www.marijuanamd.com and www.420careers.com. The Company had total notes payable to this related party of $772,936 at April 2, 2018. The $25,000 advance made March 29, 2018 bears interest at 8%, is secured by the Company’s interest in Crush Mobile (pari passu with Park), and is due June 30, 2018. If the notes due June 30, 2018 are not extended again, and we are unable to pay the amount due, which we cannot currently pay, then we would be in default and Mr. Lemak and his affiliates would have the right to sell our assets to satisfy the amounts due them under the promissory note. In such event, shareholders of the company would lose their entire investment in the Company.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We had no off-balance sheet arrangements during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Northsight Capital, Inc.:

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Northsight Capital, Inc. (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2017 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended December 31, 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Explanatory Paragraph Regarding Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits.  We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks.  Such procedures included examining on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NORTHSIGHT CAPITAL, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2017

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Northsight Capital Inc. (“Northsight” or “the Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 21, 2008. In May, 2011, Safe Communications, Inc. (n/k/a Kuboo, Inc.) acquired 80% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock, and, as a result, became its parent company. On June 25, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of approximately 7,500 cannabis related Internet domain names, in exchange for which the Company issued 78.5 million shares of its common stock and a promissory note in the principal amount of $500,000. As a result of this transaction, the seller of the domain names became an 81% stockholder of the Company. Kuboo, Inc. continues to be a significant stockholder of the Company.  John Venners, our EVP of Operations and a director, is also a director of Kuboo, Inc.  See Note 15 - Related Party Transactions.

 

The Company’s principal business is to provide a wide variety of online directories for a broad range of businesses engaged in the lawful sale and distribution of cannabis and hemp related products. The following constitute the Company’s major product categories:  a monthly listing in one or more of the Company’s online directories, paid advertising in one or more of the Company’s online directories and leasing to customers one or more internet domain names for the customer’s exclusive use.

 

In May 2017, we signed a non-binding memorandum of terms to acquire Crush Mobile. On August 8, 2017, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire all the outstanding membership interests of Crush Mobile, LLC, which was amended by Amendment No. 1 dated January 4, 2018 (as amended, the “Agreement”). As reported in our form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 10, 2018, the Crush acquisition was closed January 8, 2018. Accordingly, Crush’s operations are not included in the financial statements of the company as of December 31, 2017. Under the terms of the Agreement, we acquired all the outstanding membership interests of Crush Mobile, in exchange for an aggregate of approximately 8 million shares of common stock, plus $80,000 in cash, payable within one year of closing. We also agreed to piggy-back registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock issuable to the sellers in connection with the acquisition. In connection with Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement, the parties waived the condition that the Company complete a funding of at least $500,000.

 

Crush Mobile’s assets consist primarily of trademarks, domain names, mobile dating applications and related software and intellectual property. Crush Mobile, with approximately nine hundred thousand members, has developed a group of dating sites with a presence in the Latino, Israeli and African American communities. Crush will also be incorporating Northsight’s "Joint Lovers" dating app, which concentrates on the Cannabis space, into its dating applications suite.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation  

 

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts and valuations of intangible assets, among others. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Risk and Uncertainties

 

The Company operates in an industry that is subject to rapid change and intense competition. The Company’s operations are subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, technological, regulatory and other risks, including the potential risk of business failure.


F-6



Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase and money market accounts to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company had no cash equivalents and all cash amounts consisted of cash on deposit.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Share-based compensation awards, including stock options and restricted stock awards, are recorded at estimated fair value on the awards’ grant date, based on estimated number of awards that are expected to vest. The grant date fair value is amortized on a straight-line basis over the time in which the awards are expected to vest, or immediately if no vesting is required. Share-based compensation awards issued to non-employees for services are recorded at either the fair value of the services rendered or the fair value of the share-based payments whichever is more readily determinable. The fair value of restricted stock awards is based on the fair value of the stock underlying the awards on the grant date as there is no exercise price.

 

The fair value of stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The determination of the fair value of each stock award using this option-pricing model is affected by our assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, the expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards and the expected term of the awards based on an analysis of the actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors and the contractual term of the awards. We recognize stock-based compensation expense over the requisite service period, which is generally consistent with the vesting of the awards, based on the estimated fair value of all stock-based payments issued to employees and directors that are expected to vest.

 

Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets

 

Prepaid expenses and other current assets consist of various payments that the Company has made in advance for goods or services to be received in the future. These prepaid expenses include service contracts paid in advance with the company’s common stock.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

Accounts receivable represent obligations from customers that are subject to normal collection terms and are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of any allowance for doubtful accounts, and do not typically bear interest. The Company assesses the collectability of the accounts by taking into consideration the aging of accounts receivable, changes in customer credit worthiness, general market and economic conditions, and historical experience. Bad debt expenses are recorded as part of selling, general and administrative expenses in the statements of operations. The Company writes off the receivable balance against the allowance when management determines a balance is uncollectible. At December 31, 2016, the Company recorded a full allowance of $34,204 against its receivable balance due to the uncertainty of its collectability, which was then written off in 2017.

 

Property and Equipment/Web Development Costs

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets or, in the case of leasehold improvements, the remaining lease term, if shorter. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the assets and related accumulated depreciation are removed and the resulting gains or losses are recorded as part of other income or expense in the statements of operations. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

 

The estimated useful lives of the property and equipment are as follows:

 

Property and Equipment

 

Estimated Useful Life

Furniture, fixtures and equipment

 

3 years

Web development costs

 

5 years


F-7



 

Investment in joint Venture

 

The Company’s ownership of the joint venture company is accounted for under the equity method of accounting, in accordance with ASC 323. Under the equity method of accounting, an Investee Company’s accounts are not reflected within the Company’s Balance Sheets and Statements of Operations; however, the Company’s share of the earnings or losses of the Investee Company is reflected as a gain or loss on the Company’s investment.  Additionally, under the equity method of accounting, the Company’s initial investment in the joint venture company was recorded at the historic cost basis of the contributed domain of $0.  Accordingly, the Company expensed $475,751 related to the value of warrants the Company issued and is included as a component of loss on investments in the Company’s Statements of Operations. As of December 31, 2017, the Company has abandoned the joint venture company.

 

When the Company’s carrying value in an equity method investee company is reduced to zero, no further losses are recorded in the Company’s financial statements unless the Company guaranteed obligations of the Investee Company or has committed additional funding. When the investee company subsequently reports income, the Company will not record its share of such income until it equals the amount of its share of losses not previously recognized.  On disposal of investments in joint ventures and associated companies, the difference between disposal proceeds and the carrying amounts of the investments are recognized in profit or loss.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances exist that indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When indicators of impairment exist, an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows is used in measuring whether the carrying amount of the asset or related asset group is recoverable. Measurement of the amount of impairment, if any, is based upon the difference between the asset's carrying value and estimated fair value.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue is recognized when all of the following criteria are met:

 

Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists. Evidence of an arrangement consists of an order from the Company’s distributors, resellers or customers.  

Delivery has occurred. Delivery is deemed to have occurred when title and risk of loss has transferred, either upon shipment of products to customers or upon delivery.  

The fee is fixed or determinable. The Company assesses whether the fee is fixed or determinable based on the terms associated with the transaction. 

Collection is reasonably assured. The Company assesses collectability based on credit analysis and payment history. 

 

Revenue for adds sold is recognized upon delivery of the advertising or is amortized over the time period the advertisement runs using the straight-line method if the advertising contract spans multiple periods.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. 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. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not to be sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely to be realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs.

 

The Company records interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. There were no interest or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.


F-8



Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The fair values of the Company’s assets and liabilities that qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” approximate their carrying amounts presented in the accompanying financial statements at December 31, 2017 and 2016.

 

Loss Contingencies

 

The Company recognizes contingent losses that are both probable and estimable.  In this context, the Company defines probability as circumstances under which events are likely to occur.  In regards to legal costs, we record such costs as incurred.

 

Earnings per Share Policy

 

The Company complies with the accounting and disclosure requirements of FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted loss per common share incorporates the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents on an average basis during the period.

 

The calculation of diluted net loss per share excludes 11,355,285 warrants as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, since their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by FASB that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date.  If not discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption

 

NOTE 3 – LIQUIDITY/GOING CONCERN

 

The Company has accumulated losses of $21,926,295 and has had sustained negative cash flows from operating activities since inception (May 2008). These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the recoverability of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company raised aggregate gross proceeds of $635,049 in capital through the issuance of notes payable and $25,000 through the issuance of common stock.  Management plans to (i) raise additional capital as soon as possible, to fund continued operations of the Company and (ii) eventually to generate profits from operations.

 

In the event the Company does not generate sufficient funds from revenues or financing through the issuance of its common stock or from debt financing, the Company will be unable to fully implement its business plan and pay its obligations as they become due, any of which circumstances would have a material adverse effect on its business prospects, financial condition, and results of operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be required should the Company be unable to recover the value of its assets or satisfy its liabilities.

 

NOTE 4 – INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURE

 

On February 29, 2016, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Tumbleweed Holdings, Inc. (“TW”), pursuant to which a newly formed joint venture company is developing an online dating service around the URL, www.jointlovers.com. The Company and TW own 60% and 40% respectively of equity of the joint venture company.

 

On August 15, 2016, the Company instituted a legal action in Arizona against, Tumbleweed Holdings Inc., (“TW”). The complaint alleged that (i) TW breached the joint venture agreement by failing to fund the remaining $15,000 due to the joint venture company by April 29, 2016, (ii) TW breached the joint venture agreement by failing to fund the last $50,000 convertible note due to the Company by April 29, 2016, and (iii) TW breached the joint venture agreement by failing to fund their respective 40% of development expense in excess of the initial $100,000. The Company sought damages in the amount of $128,000 plus interest.


F-9



 

On September 22, 2016, Tumbleweed Holdings Inc., instituted a counterclaim in Arizona in response to the above legal action. The complaint alleged that (i) The Company breached the joint venture agreement by failing to leverage relationships and failing to provide budgeting and accounting records, (ii) the Company breached implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing by enticing TW into making significant contributions and then failing to perform under the agreement, (iii) the Company was unjustly enriched by having use of funds contributed by TW, (iv) the Company converted funds contributed by TW into its own assets, and (v) the Company has not provided accounting for all funds received by TW.

 

On July 17, 2017, the Company and Tumbleweed settled the litigation relating to the joint venture. As part of the settlement, Tumbleweed converted its $100,000 convertible note and it’s $85,000 joint venture investment into shares of company common stock at a rate of $.10 per share, resulting in a net loss on settlement of $30,750. The warrants issuable to Tumbleweed and the company were cancelled. The parties released each other from all claims related to the joint venture. Following the settlement, the Company wrote down its investment in the joint venture to zero and abandoned the joint venture.

NOTE 8 – NOTES PAYABLE RELATED PARTY

 

On May 19, 2015, the Company issued Kae Yong Park and her spouse Howard Baer (together, “Park”) a non-interest bearing, unsecured demand promissory note to evidence all unpaid advances received by the Company to that point and to cover all additional advances received afterward.  Unpaid principal under the note is due and payable upon the earlier of (i) an “event of default” (as defined), (ii) written demand and (iii) the Company’s receipt of capital (to the extent of net proceeds received) from any capital raising transaction after May 15, 2015, whether in the form of debt, equity or otherwise.


F-11



On September 30, 2015, the Company amended and restated its promissory note to Park to include all advances to date and provide certain assets, including all internet domain names, websites and related assets as collateral.  Repayment terms remain the same, and Park has to date not enforced the provision requiring repayment upon receipt of net proceeds from capital raising transactions.

 

On April 13, 2016, the Company agreed to amend the promissory note so as to make $564,000 in principal amount due under said Note interest bearing at the rate of 10% per annum.  At December 31, 2017, the Company had accrued interest under this note of $112,955.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2017, Park advanced an aggregate of $62,750 to the Company for short-term capital needs. During this period the Company repaid $43,550 of its secured debt to Park and recaptured $141,510 worth of payroll expenses for Park’s use of Company personnel.  Amounts recaptured for the use of Company personnel have been treated as repayments on the Company’s Statements of Cash Flows.   At December 31, 2017, the Company had a note payable to Park for these advances of $1,292,357 which is secured by the assets of the Company.  Because this debt is payable on demand, the company has classified it as a current liability.

Thereafter, Kae Yong Park waived the requirement that the Company pay the $100,000 due under the Amended and Restated Note until August 25, 2014, at which time it was paid.  The Company subsequently recaptured all previously recorded interest expense related to the note.

NOTE 12 – EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

 

Net earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period.

 

Since the Company reflected a net loss for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, the effect of considering any common stock equivalents, if exercisable, would have been anti-dilutive. Therefore, a separate computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share is not presented.

NOTE 13 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

In May 2014, The Company entered into an asset purchase agreement that requires the Company to pay a monthly royalty equal to six percent of gross monthly revenues over $150,000. The royalty payment is payable for a period of thirty-six months from and after the first month in which the Company’s gross revenues are in excess of $150,000 (see Note 15 - Related Party Transactions).

 

On June 23, 2014, the Company issued a $500,000 promissory note in conjunction with the purchase of approximately 7,500 cannabis-related internet domain names. The original note bore interest at the rate of 3.25% per annum and was payable as follows: upon the Company’s receipt of an aggregate of $1,000,000 in funding (whether debt or equity), $100,000 was required to be paid. The remaining $400,000 is payable in thirty-six equal monthly installments, commencing on the fifteenth day following the first month the Company realizes at least $150,000 in gross revenue.

 

On July 25, 2014, the Company amended and restated its promissory note in the principal amount of $500,000 owing to Kae Yong Park (the Company’s then majority shareholder) to provide that it would make the first $100,000 installment payment due under the Note on July 25, 2014 (earlier than required), in exchange for which Kae Yong Park agreed to waive all interest due over the term of the note. Thereafter, Kae Yong Park waived the requirement that the Company pay the $100,000 due under the Amended and Restated Note until August 25, 2014, at which time it was paid.

Under the terms of the Agreement, the company will acquire all the outstanding membership interests of Crush Mobile, in exchange for an aggregate of approximately 8 million shares of common stock, plus $80,000 in cash payable in one year. The Company also agreed to piggy-back registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock issuable to the sellers in connection with the acquisition. See Note 16 – Subsequent Events

 

NOTE 14 – INCOME TAXES

 

Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due.  Deferred taxes relate to differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting which will be either taxable or deductible when the assets or liabilities are recovered or settled.

 

At December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company had net operating loss (“NOL”) carry-forwards for federal and state income purposes approximating $6,259,106 and $5,633,041, respectively. These losses are available for future years and expire through 2034.  Pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 382, utilization of these losses may be severely or completely limited due to more than 50% ownership changes in 2014, 2011 and 2010.

 

The deferred tax asset at December 31, 2017 and 2016 is summarized as follows:

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

 

None; not applicable.

 

ITEM 9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our Principal Executive Officer (EVP Operations) and Financial Controller have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report. Based on this evaluation, our Management has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by the Annual Report were not effective. This was due in large part a lack of duty separation caused by our small corporate structure. As we grow, Management plans to implement more stringent disclosure controls and procedures.

 

Our Principal Executive Officer and Financial Controller do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within us have been detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

 

Our Principal Executive Officer and Financial Controller evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017 based on the control criteria established in a report entitled Internal Control — Integrated Framework —2013, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013.  Based on this evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Financial Controller, concluded that, as of December 31, 2017, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective, based on having insufficient resources to establish an effective control environment during 2017.

 

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Security and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Janis handled both corporate clients and major political campaigns for the White House. During those years, Janis was highly involved with Public Relations for both Bush’s campaigns, Jack Kemp and Mitt Romneys runs for President. The Janis influence in the White House extended to many other political campaigns as well.

 

Janis’ initial experience in the market was as a Lead Quote Observer on the trading floor for Dean Witter Reynolds.

 

Thomas M. Dean. Effective July 1, 2015, Mr. Dean was appointed a director by our Board of Directors.  Mr. Dean will serve on the Board of Directors until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until his successor is duly elected, subject to earlier resignation or removal.   

 

Mr. Dean was a founding member and has been President of Murdock Capital Partners Corp. since 1998. Murdock Capital Partners Corp. is a New York private merchant banking firm providing corporate finance and financial advisory services. It advises its corporate clients on all aspects of investment banking, including mergers and acquisitions, public and private financing, management buy-outs and corporate divestitures.

 

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Section 16(a)"), requires our Directors and executive officers, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities (collectively, "Section 16 reporting persons"), to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our Common Stock and other equity securities. Section 16 reporting persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

 

To our knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of any such reports furnished to us, none of the Section 16 reporting persons failed to file on a timely basis reports required by Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to our most recent fiscal year (December 31, 2017), except that John Lemak and his affiliate, Sandor Capital Master Fund, a 10% beneficial owner, filed a Form 4 late.

 

Code of Ethics

 

Management is currently in the process of establishing a company Code of Ethics.

 

Corporate Governance

 

Nominating Committee

 

Our bylaws do not provide a procedure for Stockholders to nominate directors. The Board of Directors does not currently have a standing nominating committee. The Board of Directors currently has the responsibility of selecting individuals to be nominated for election to the Board of Directors. Qualifications considered by the Directors in nominating an individual may include, without limitation, independence, integrity, business experience, education, accounting and financial expertise, reputation, civic, community and industry relationships and industry knowledge. In nominating an existing director for re-election to the Board of Directors, the Directors will consider and review an existing director’s Board and Committee attendance, performance and length of service.

 

Audit Committee

 

We have not yet established an Audit Committee because, due to our relatively low material operations and the fact that we presently have only three directors and one executive officer, we believe that we are able to effectively manage the issues normally considered by an Audit Committee.  Following significant increases in our business operations, a further review of this issue will no doubt be necessary.

Mr. Hollister resigned as Interim CEO effective November 13, 2016. 

 

(2) On August 5, 2015, Mr. Venners became our Executive Vice President, Operations.  His agreement provides for an annual base salary of $180,000.  Beginning January 1, 2017, Mr. Venners has waived his annual salary.  Mr. Venners resigned from his previous position as President, Treasurer and Secretary on March 24, 2014.  Between March 2014 and August 2015, Mr. Venners provided consulting services to the Company which are included in consulting expense – related party in our statements of operations.

(4) Upon the hiring of William Lupo, Jr., Mr. Bluher stepped down as CEO and was appointed President.  Effective September 11, 2015, Mr. Bluher resigned as President at which time unpaid salaries and expense reimbursements due under his employment contract totaling $208,000 were settled with the issuance of 1,600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

Director Compensation

Through December 31, 2017, Directors who were compensated as employees received no additional compensation for service on our Board of Directors. The Board of Directors plans to establish a compensation plan for nonemployee directors, in connection with our appointment of such director(s).

 

It is anticipated that each non-employee Director will receive an annual cash fee. In addition, in order to align their interests with those of the shareholders, each non-employee Director may also be granted rights to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price to be determined by the Board of Directors. We also expect that all or a portion of these rights will vest monthly on a pro rata basis over each non-employee Director’s initial term as a Director.

 

Equity Incentive Plans

 

We have not yet established any Equity Incentive Plans. We anticipate that we will establish one or more equity incentive plans for our officers and directors.

Director Independence

 

In determining whether the members of our board of directors and its committees are independent, we have elected to use the definition of “independence” set forth in the listing standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market. After considering all relevant relationships and transactions, our board of directors has determined that none of our directors are “independent” within the meaning of the applicable listing standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market, except for Mr. Dean. The Company does not at this time have separate Audit, Compensation, or Nominating and Governance Committees. Instead, the full board of directors has the responsibility of selecting and working with our independent auditors, setting executive compensation, and selecting individuals to be nominated for election to the board of directors. We anticipate enlarging our Board of Directors and filling one or more of the resulting vacancies with directors who are “independent” within the meaning of applicable listing standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market.

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Auditors

 

We have not adopted an Audit Committee; therefore, there is no Audit Committee policy in this regard. However, we do require approval in advance of the performance of professional services to be provided to us by our principal accountant. Additionally, all services rendered by our principal accountant are performed pursuant to a written engagement letter between us and the principal accountant.
