NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

 

Transportation and Logistics Systems, Inc. (“TLSS”), formerly PetroTerra Corp., was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, on July 25, 2008.

 

On March 30, 2017 (the “Closing Date”), TLSS and Save On Transport Inc. (“Save On”) entered into a Share Exchange Agreement, dated as of the same date (the “Share Exchange Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, on the Closing Date, Save On became a wholly-owned subsidiary of TLSS (the “Reverse Merger”). Save On was incorporated in the state of Florida and started business on July 12, 2016. Save On is a provider of integrated transportation management solutions consisting of brokerage and logistic services such as transportation scheduling, routing and other value added services related to the transportation of automobiles and other freight. As an early stage company, TLSS’s current operations are subject to all risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise

 

The Share Exchange was treated as a reverse merger and recapitalization of Save On for financial reporting purposes since the Save On shareholders retained an approximate 80% controlling interest in the post-merger consolidated entity. Save On was considered the acquirer for accounting purposes, and the Company’s historical financial statements before the Merger was replaced with the historical financial statements of Save On before the Merger. The balance sheets at their historical cost basis of both entities were combined at the merger date and the results of operations from the merger date forward include the historical results of Save On and results of TLSS from the merger date forward. The Merger was intended to be treated as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. On May 1, 2019, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Save On and Steven Yariv, whereby the Company returned all of the stock of Save On to Steven Yariv in exchange for Mr. Yariv conveying 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company back to the Company. In addition, the Company granted an aggregate of 80,000 options to certain employees of Save On. Mr. Yariv ceased to be an officer or director of the Company effective with the filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission of April 16, 2019.

 

On June 18, 2018 (the “Acquisition Date”), the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Prime EFS, LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company (“Prime”), from its members pursuant to the terms and conditions of a Stock Purchase Agreement entered into among the Company and the Prime members on the Closing Date (the “SPA”). Prime is a New Jersey based transportation company with a focus on deliveries for on-line retailers in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

 

On July 24, 2018, the Company formed Shypdirect LLC (“Shypdirect”), a company organized under the laws of New Jersey. Shypdirect is a transportation company with a focus on tractor trailer and box truck deliveries of product on the east coast of the United States from one distributor’s warehouse to another warehouse or from a distributor’s warehouse to the post office.

 

TLSS and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Prime and Shypdirect are hereafter referred to as the “Company”.

 

On July 16, 2018, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada to (1) change the name of the Company from PetroTerra Corp. to Transportation and Logistics Systems, Inc., (2) authorize an increase of the shares of the preferred stock to 10,000,000 shares, par value $0.001 per share and (3) effect a 1-for-250 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) with respect to the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. The Certificate of Amendment became effective on July 17, 2018. The corporate name change, increase of authorized shares of preferred stock and Reverse Stock Split were previously approved by the sole director and the majority of stockholders of the Company. The corporate name change and the Reverse Stock Split were deemed effective at the open of business on July 18, 2018. All share and per share data in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been retroactively restated to reflect the effect of the recapitalization.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and disclosures necessary for comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations or cash flow. However, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and a non-recurring adjustment for the impairment of intangible assets, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. It is suggested that these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2018, and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, filed on April 16, 2019.

TRANSPORTATION AND LOGISTICS SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2019

 

The Company follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of its annual and interim reports. The results of operations in interim periods are not necessarily an indication of operating results to be expected for the full year.

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of TLSS and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Save On (through April 30, 2019), Prime and Shypdirect. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

On May 1, 2019, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Save On and Steven Yariv, whereby the Company returned all of the stock of Save On to Steven Yariv in exchange for Mr. Yariv conveying 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company back to the Company. Pursuant to Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 205-20-45, the financial statement in which net income or loss of a business entity is reported shall report the results of operations of the discontinued operation in the period in which a discontinued operation either has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale. Accordingly, beginning in the second quarter of 2019, the period that Save On was disposed of, the Company reflects Save On as a discontinued operations and such presentation is retroactively applied to all periods presented in the accompany condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Going concern

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, for the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company had a net loss of $26,609,181 and net cash used in operations was $3,115,838, respectively. Additionally, the Company had an accumulated deficit, shareholders’ deficit, and a working capital deficit of $41,379,031, $9,248,833 and $11,697,417, respectively, at June 30, 2019. Furthermore, the Company failed to make required payments of principal and interest on certain of its convertible debt instruments and defaulted on other provisions in these Notes. On April 9, 2019, the Company entered into agreements with these lenders that modified these Notes (See Note 7). It is management’s opinion that these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the issuance date of this report. Management cannot provide assurance that the Company will ultimately achieve profitable operations, become cash flow positive, or raise additional debt and/or equity capital. The Company is seeking to raise capital through additional debt and/or equity financings to fund its operations in the future. Although the Company has historically raised capital from sales of common shares and from the issuance of convertible promissory notes, there is no assurance that it will be able to continue to do so.

 

If the Company is unable to raise additional capital or secure additional lending in the near future, management expects that the Company will need to curtail its operations. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements, in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes include the valuation of accounts receivable, the useful life of property and equipment, the valuation of intangible assets, the valuation of right of use asset and related liability, assumptions used in assessing impairment of long-lived assets, estimates of current and deferred income taxes and deferred tax valuation allowances, the fair value of non-cash equity transactions, the valuation of derivative liabilities, and the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business acquisitions.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASC 820 — Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures , which defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 requires disclosures about the fair value of all financial instruments, whether or not recognized, for financial statement purposes. Disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments are based on pertinent information available to the Company on June 30, 2019. Accordingly, the estimates presented in these financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized on disposition of the financial instruments. ASC 820 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement).

TRANSPORTATION AND LOGISTICS SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2019

 

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

  Level 1-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.
     
  Level 2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.
     
  Level 3-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

 

The Company measures certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

 

    At June 30, 2019     At December 31, 2018  
Description   Level 1     Level 2     Level 3     Level 1     Level 2     Level 3  
Derivative liabilities               $                 $ 7,888,684  

 

A roll forward of the level 3 valuation financial instruments is as follows:

 

    For the Six
Months Ended
June 30, 2019
 
Balance at beginning of period   $ 7,888,684  
Gain on extinguishment of debt related to repayment of debt     (246,110 )
Gain on extinguishment of debt related to April 9, 2019 modifications    

(61,841,708

)
Cumulative effect adjustment for change in derivative accounting     (838,471 )
Change in fair value included in derivative expense     55,037,605  
Balance at end of period   $ -  

 

The Company accounts for its derivative financial instruments, consisting of certain conversion options embedded in our convertible instruments and warrants, at fair value using level 3 inputs. The Company determined the fair value of these derivative liabilities using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, binomial lattice models, or other accepted valuation practices. When determining the fair value of its financial assets and liabilities using these methods, the Company is required to use various estimates and unobservable inputs, including, among other things, expected terms of the instruments, expected volatility of its stock price, expected dividends, and the risk-free interest rate. Changes in any of the assumptions related to the unobservable inputs identified above may change the fair value of the instrument. Increases in expected term, anticipated volatility and expected dividends generally result in increases in fair value, while decreases in the unobservable inputs generally result in decreases in fair value.

 

ASC 825-10 “Financial Instruments ”, allows entities to voluntarily choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value (fair value option). The fair value option may be elected on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable, unless a new election date occurs. If the fair value option is elected for an instrument, unrealized gains and losses for that instrument should be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The Company did not elect to apply the fair value option to any outstanding instruments.

 

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. The carrying amount of the Company’s convertible notes payable and promissory note obligations approximate fair value, as the terms of these instruments are consistent with terms available in the market for instruments with similar risk.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the purchase date and money market accounts to be cash equivalents. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company did not have any cash equivalents.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2019

 

The Company maintains its cash in bank and financial institution deposits that at times may exceed federally insured limits. There were no balances in excess of FDIC insured levels as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts through June 30, 2019.

 

Accounts receivable

 

Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses. The Company reviews the accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes general and specific allowances when there is doubt as to the collectability of individual balances. In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balance, a customer’s historical payment history, its current credit-worthiness and current economic trends. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collection.

 

Property and equipment

 

Property are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of five to six years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the useful life or lease term including scheduled renewal terms. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the year of disposition. The Company examines the possibility of decreases in the value of these assets when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact that their recorded value may not be recoverable.

 

Intangible asset

 

Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization, computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life, less any impairment charges. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, intangible asset consists of a customer relationship acquired on June 18, 2018 which is being amortized over a period of five years.

 

Leases

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The updated guidance requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for most operating leases. In addition, the updated guidance requires that lessors separate lease and non-lease components in a contract in accordance with the new revenue guidance in ASC 606. The updated guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018.

 

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, applying the package of practical expedients to leases that commenced before the effective date whereby the Company elected to not reassess the following: (i) whether any expired or existing contracts contain leases and; (ii) initial direct costs for any existing leases. For contracts entered into on or after the effective date, at the inception of a contract the Company assessed whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. The Company’s assessment is based on: (1) whether the contract involves the use of a distinct identified asset, (2) whether we obtain the right to substantially all the economic benefit from the use of the asset throughout the period, and (3) whether it has the right to direct the use of the asset. The Company will allocate the consideration in the contract to each lease component based on its relative stand-alone price to determine the lease payments. The Company has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a term of 12 months or less.

 

Operating lease ROU assets represents the right to use the leased asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company use an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the adoption date in determining the present value of future payments. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

Impairment of long-lived assets

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, the Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value.

TRANSPORTATION AND LOGISTICS SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Segment reporting

 

The Company uses “the management approach” in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company’s reportable segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the chief executive officer of the Company, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. On May 1, 2019, the Company disposed of its Save On business segment and the results of operations of Save On are included in discontinued operations. Accordingly, during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company believes that it operates in one operating segment related to deliveries for on-line retailers in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania and tractor trailer and box truck deliveries of product on the east coast of the United States from one distributor’s warehouse to another warehouse or from a distributor’s warehouse to the post office.

 

Derivative financial instruments

 

The Company has certain financial instruments that are embedded derivatives associated with capital raises. The Company evaluates all its financial instruments to determine if those contracts or any potential embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for in accordance with ASC 810-10-05-4 and 815-40. This accounting treatment requires that the carrying amount of any embedded derivatives be recorded at fair value at issuance and marked-to-market at each balance sheet date. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, as is the case with the Company, the change in the fair value during the period is recorded as either other income or expense. Upon conversion, exercise or repayment, the respective derivative liability is marked to fair value at the conversion, repayment or exercise date and then the related fair value amount is reclassified to other income or expense as part of gain or loss on extinguishment.

 

In July 2017, FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features . These amendments simplify the accounting for certain financial instruments with down-round features. The amendments require companies to disregard the down-round feature when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to its own stock, for purposes of determining liability or equity classification. The guidance was adopted as of January 1, 2019 and the Company elected to record the effect of this adoption retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of the beginning of 2019, the period which the amendment is effective. In accordance with the guidance presented in the ASU 2017-11, the fair value of derivative liabilities associated with certain convertible notes as of December 31, 2018 of $838,471 and the offsetting effect of reclassifying such debt to stock-settled debt for which the Company recorded a put premium liability of $385,385 was reclassified by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to opening accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2019 in the amount of $453,086.

 

Revenue recognition and cost of revenue

 

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. This ASC is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This ASC also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer service orders, including significant judgments.

 

For the Company’s Prime and Shypdirect business activities, the Company recognizes revenues and the related direct costs of such revenue which generally include compensation and related benefits, gas costs, insurance, parking and tolls, truck rental fees, and maintenance fees as of the date the freight is delivered which is when the performance obligation is satisfied. In accordance with ASC Topic 606, the Company recognizes revenue on a gross basis. Our payment terms are net seven days from acceptance of delivery. The Company does not incur incremental costs obtaining service orders from its Prime customers, however, if the Company did, because all of Prime and Shypdirect customer contracts are less than a year in duration, any contract costs incurred would be expensed rather than capitalized. The revenue that the Company recognizes arises from deliveries of packages on behalf of the Company’s customers. Primarily, the Company’s performance obligations under these service orders correspond to each delivery of packages that the Company makes under the service agreements. Control of the package transfers to the recipient upon delivery. Once this occurs, the Company has satisfied its performance obligation and the Company recognizes revenue.

TRANSPORTATION AND LOGISTICS SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2019

 

For the Company’s Save On business activities, through the date of disposition on May 1, 2019, the Company recognized revenues and the related direct costs of such revenue which includes carrier fees and dispatch costs as of the date the freight is delivered by the carrier which is when the performance obligation is satisfied. Customer payments received prior to delivery are recorded as a deferred revenue liability and related carrier fees if paid prior to delivery are recorded as a deferred expense asset. In accordance with ASC Topic 606, the Company recognizes revenue on a gross basis. Our payment terms for corporate customers are net 30 days from acceptance of delivery and individual customers generally must pay in advance. The Company does not incur incremental costs obtaining service orders from our Save On customers, however, if the Company did, because all of the Save On customer’s contracts are less than a year in duration, any contract costs incurred would be expensed rather than capitalized. The Company’s adoption of this ASC, resulted in no cumulative effect at January 1, 2018 and no change prospectively to the Company’s results of operations or financial condition. The revenue that the Company recognizes arises from service orders it receives from its Save On customers. The Company’s performance obligations under these service orders correspond to each delivery of a vehicle that the Company makes for its customer under the service orders; as a result, each service order generally contains only one performance obligation based on the delivery to be completed.

 

Revenue disaggregation disclosure required pursuant to ASC 606 are disclosed in Note 13 – Segment Information.

 

Basic and diluted loss per share

 

Pursuant to ASC 260-10-45, basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive common shares consist of common stock issuable for stock warrants (using the treasury stock method) and shares issuable for convertible debt (using the as-if converted method). These common stock equivalents may be dilutive in the future.

 

Potentially dilutive common shares were excluded from the computation of diluted shares outstanding as they would have an anti-dilutive impact on the Company’s net losses and consisted of the following:

 

    June 30, 2019     June 30, 2018  
Stock warrants     114,000       1,329,548  
Stock options     80,000       -  
Convertible debt     534,312       3,158,465  
Series A convertible preferred stock     -       6,666,667  

 

Stock-based compensation

 

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.

 

Through March 31, 2018, pursuant to ASC 505-50 – “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”, all share-based payments to non-employees, including grants of stock options, were recognized in the consolidated financial statements as compensation expense over the service period of the consulting arrangement or until performance conditions are expected to be met. Using a Black-Scholes valuation model, the Company periodically reassessed the fair value of non-employee options until service conditions are met, which generally aligns with the vesting period of the options, and the Company adjusts the expense recognized in the consolidated financial statements accordingly. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions by expanding the scope of the stock-based compensation guidance in ASC 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from non-employees. ASU No. 2018-07 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted, but entities may not adopt prior to adopting the new revenue recognition guidance in ASC 606. The Company early adopted ASU No. 2018-07 in the second quarter of 2018 and there was no cumulative effect of adoption.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13 to modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. The amendments are effective for years beginning after December 15, 2019. An entity is permitted to early adopt any removed or modified disclosures and delay adoption of the additional disclosures until the effective date. Most amendments should be applied retrospectively, but certain amendments will be applied prospectively. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of the standard on the Company’s fair value disclosures. However, the standard is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

 

There are currently no other accounting standards that have been issued but not yet adopted that we believe will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows upon adoption.

NOTE 7 – CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES PAYABLE AND NOTES PAYABLE

 

Red Diamond Partners LLC and RDW Capital, LLC

 

On April 25, 2017, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with RedDiamond Partners LLC (“RedDiamond”) pursuant to which the Company would issue to RedDiamond Convertible Promissory Notes in an aggregate principal amount of up to $355,000, which includes a purchase price of $350,000 and transaction costs of $5,000. Pursuant to this securities purchase agreement, on April 25, 2017, the Company entered into a convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $100,000 and the Company received $95,000 after giving effect to the original issue discount of $5,000. This note matured on April 25, 2018 and each tranche matured one year after the date of such funding. The second Tranche was received on June 2, 2017 for $85,000 and the third Tranche for $85,000 was received on August 8, 2017 upon filing of the Registration Statement. The fourth Tranche was to be for $85,000, however, as of the date of this filing, the fourth tranche has not yet been received. The Purchaser is not required to fund any Tranche subsequent to the first Tranche if there is an event of default as described in the promissory notes. Through date of default, the RedDiamond Notes bore interest at a rate of 12% per annum and were convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at RedDiamond’s option at 65% of the lowest VWAP for the previous ten trading days preceding the conversion. During 2018, the Company failed to make its required maturity date payments of principal and interest on Convertible Promissory Notes of $270,000. In accordance with these notes, the Company entered into default in 2018, which increased the interest rate to 18.0% per annum. These convertible promissory notes contain cross default provisions whereby a default in any one note greater than $25,000 will cause a default in all the notes, however, this provision is only effective if there is a formal notice of default by the lender.

 

On June 30, 2017, the Company issued RDW Capital, LLC a senior convertible note in the aggregate principal amount of $240,000, for an aggregate purchase price of $30,000 of which $15,000 had been recorded as advance from lender as of March 31, 2017 and the remaining $15,000 received on June 30, 2017. Through date of default, the principal due under the Note accrued interest at a rate of 12% per annum. All principal and accrued interest under the Note was due six months following the issue date of the Note, and is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, at a conversion price equal to fifty (50%) of the lowest volume-weighted average price for the previous ten trading days immediately preceding the conversion. The Note includes anti-dilution protection, including a down-round provision under which the conversion price could be affected by future equity offerings undertaken by the Company, as well as customary events of default, including non-payment of the principal or accrued interest due on the Note. Upon an event of default, all obligations under the Note will become immediately due and payable and the Company will be required to make certain payments to the Lender. On December 31, 2017 the Company failed to make its required maturity date payment of principal and interest. In accordance with the note, the Company entered into default on January 3, 2018, which increased the interest rate to 24% per annum.

 

In connection with the issuance of these Convertible Promissory Notes above, the Company determined that the terms of these Convertible Promissory Notes included a down-round provision under which the conversion price could be affected by future equity offerings undertaken by the Company.

The Company evaluated these convertible promissory note transactions in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. Through December 31, 2018, the Company determined that the conversion feature of the convertible promissory notes were not afforded the exemption for conventional convertible instruments due to their respective variable conversion rate and price protection provision. Accordingly, through December 31, 2018, under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic No. 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in an Entity’s Own Stock”, the embedded conversion option contained in the convertible instruments were accounted for as derivative liabilities at the date of issuance and shall be adjusted to fair value through earnings at each reporting date. On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features, and the Company elected to record the effect of this adoption retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of the beginning of 2019, the period which the amendment is effective (See Note 2 - Derivative liabilities).

 

On April 9, 2019, the Company entered into agreements with RedDiamond, holding these convertible notes representing an aggregate principal amount of $510,000, and agreed with such holder to:

 

  extend the maturity date of the notes to December 31, 2020;
  remove all convertibility features of the notes; and
  if the Company completes an offering of equity or equity linked securities (including warrants, convertible preferred stock, convertible debentures or convertible promissory note) which results in gross proceeds to the Company of at least $4,000,000, then the Company shall use a portion of the proceeds thereof to repay not less than half of the obligations then outstanding pursuant to the notes.

 

The aggregate principal amounts due as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 amounted to $510,000 and $510,000, respectively. At December 31, 2018, the principal balance of $510,000 was included in convertible notes payable, a current liability, on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. At June 30, 2019, the principal balance of $510,000 was included in notes payable – related party, a long-term liability, on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet since on April 9, 2019, the conversion features on the notes were removed and RedDiamond became a principal shareholder of the Company when they converted their preferred shares to common stock (See Note 9). In connection with this debt modification, the Company recorded a gain on debt extinguishment of $432,589, which consists of the removal of debt put premium of $385,385 since the debt is no longer convertible, and $47,205 related to the reversal of default interest payable.

 

Bellridge Capital, LLC

 

On June 18, 2018, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), whereby it issued to an institutional investor (the “Lender”) a senior secured convertible note in the aggregate principal amount of $2,497,503 (the “Note”), for an aggregate purchase price of $1,665,000, net of an original issue discount of $832,503. In addition, the Company paid issue costs of $177,212. The original issue discount and issue costs were recorded as a debt discount to be amortized over the Note term. The principal due under the Note accrues interest at a rate of 10% per annum. Principal and interest payments of $232,940 were payable monthly beginning on December 18, 2018 and were due monthly over the term of the Note in cash or common stock of the Company, at the Lender’s discretion.

 

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Lender was issued a warrant, with a term of two years, to purchase up to 4.75% of the fully-diluted outstanding Common Stock of the Company, for an aggregate purchase price of $100. Additionally, the placement agent was issued a warrant, with a term of two years, to purchase up to 4.75% of the fully-diluted outstanding Common Stock of the Company, for an aggregate purchase price of $100.

 

In August 2018, the Company defaulted on its convertible note payable with Bellridge due to (i) default on the payment of monthly interest payments due, (ii) default caused by the late filing of the Company’s report on Form 10-Q for the periods ended June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2018 and (iii) default of filing of a registration statement. Upon an event of default, all principal, accrued interest, and liquating damages and penalties were due upon request of the lender at 125% of such amounts.

 

On December 27, 2018, the lender waived any and all defaults in existence on the Note and the Company agreed to issue a warrant that is convertible into 2% of the issued and outstanding shares existing as the time the Company files a registration statement or makes an application to up list to a national stock exchange. Pursuant to this warrant, at any time on or before the date that the Company files a registration statement on form S-l or applies for up-listing to a National Exchange, and on or prior to the close of business on the early of the first year anniversary of the issuance of December 27, 2018 (the “Termination Date”), Bellridge could have chosen to subscribe for and purchase from the Company up to 2% in shares of common stock for an aggregate exercise price of $100. Additionally, the principal interest amount due under the Note was modified with a monthly payment of principal and interests due beginning on January 18, 2019 of $156,219 with all remaining principal and interest amounts on the Note due on December 18, 2019. This modification was not considered a debt extinguishment.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2019

 

On April 9, 2019, the Company entered into a new agreement with this lender that modified these Notes and cancelled these warrants (see below).

 

Through April 9, 2019, all principal and accrued interest under the Note was convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, at a conversion price equal to the lower of $1.50 and 65% of the lowest traded price during the fifteen trading days immediately prior to the conversion date. The Note includes anti-dilution protection, as well as customary events of default, including, but not limited to, non-payment of the principal or accrued interest due on the Note and cross default provisions on other Company obligations or contracts. Upon an event of default, all obligations under the Note will become immediately due and payable and the Company will be required to make certain payments to the Lender.

 

The Lender was granted a right of first refusal on future financing transactions of the Company while the Note remains outstanding, plus an additional three months thereafter. In connection with the issuance of the Note, the Company entered into a security agreement with the Lender (the “Security Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company agreed that obligations under the Note and related documents will be secured by all of the assets of the Company. In addition, all of the Company’s subsidiaries are guarantors of the Company’s obligations to the Lender pursuant to the Note and have granted a similar security interest over substantially all of their assets. A portion of the proceeds of the Note were used to acquire 100% of the membership interests of Prime.

 

During the term of this Note, in the event that the Company consummates any public or private offering or other financing or capital raising transaction of any kind ( each a “Subsequent Offering”), in which the Company receives, in one or more contemporaneous transactions, gross proceeds of at least $5,000,000, at any time upon ten (10) days written notice to the Holder, but subject to the Holder’s conversion rights set forth in the Purchase Agreement, then the Company shall use 20% of the gross proceeds of the Subsequent Offering and shall make payment to the Holder of an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the sum of (x) the then outstanding principal amount of this Note and (y) all accrued but unpaid interest, multiplied by (ii) (x) 110%, if the Prepayment Date is within 90 days of the date hereof the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), or (y) 125%, if the Prepayment Date is after the 90th day following the Closing Date, to which calculated amount the Company shall add all other amounts owed pursuant to this Note, including, but not limited to, all Late Fees and liquidated damages.

 

In connection with the Purchase agreement, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement which, among other things, required the Company to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission no later than 120 days after June 18, 2018. The Company failed to file such registration statement. Accordingly, in addition to any other rights the Holders may have hereunder or under applicable law, on the default date and on each monthly anniversary of each such default date (if the applicable event shall not have been cured by such date) until the ninetieth day from such Event Date, the Company shall pay to each Holder an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to the product of one percent (1%) multiplied by the aggregate subscription amount paid by the Holder pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. Subsequent to the ninetieth day from such default date, the one percent (1%) penalty shall increase to two percent (2%), with an aggregate cap of twenty percent (20%) per annum. If the Company fails to pay any of these partial liquidated damages in full within seven days after the date payable, the Company will pay interest thereon at a rate of 18% per annum to the Holder, accruing daily from the date such partial liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full. On December 27, 2018, the lender waived any and all defaults.

 

In connection with this Purchase Agreement, the Company paid a placement agent $120,000 in cash which is included in issue costs previously discussed above and this placement agent was issued a warrant, with a term of two years, to purchase up to 4.75% of the fully-diluted outstanding Common Stock of the Company, for an aggregate purchase price of $100 (the “Placement Warrant”). On April 9, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with this placement agent that cancelled these warrant.

 

In connection with the issuance of this Note, Warrants, and Placement Warrant, the Company determined that this Note and there Warrants contains terms that are not fixed monetary amounts at inception. Accordingly, under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in an Entity’s Own Stock”, the embedded conversion option contained in the convertible instrument and the Warrant and Placement Warrant were accounted for as derivative liabilities at the date of issuance and shall be adjusted to fair value through earnings at each reporting date. The fair value of this embedded conversion option derivative, and the Warrant and Placement Warrant were determined using the Binomial valuation model and Monte-Carlo simulation model, respectively.

Convertible debt modifications and warrant cancellations

 

On April 9, 2019 (the “Modification Date”), the Company entered into an agreement with Bellridge Capital, L.P. (“Bellridge”) that modifies its existing obligations to Bellridge as follows:

 

  the overall principal amount of that certain Convertible Promissory Note, dated June 18, 2018, issued by the Company in favor of Bellridge (the “Note”) was reduced from the original principal amount of $2,497,502 (principal amount was $2,223,918 at April 9, 2019) to $1,800,000, in exchange for the issuance to Bellridge of 800,000 shares of restricted common stock, which shall be delivered to Bellridge, either in whole or in part, at such time or times as when the beneficial ownership of such shares by Bellridge will not result in Bellridge’s beneficial ownership of more than the Beneficial Ownership Limitation and such shares will be issued within three business days of the date the Bellridge has represented to the Company that it is below the Beneficial Ownership Limitation. Such issuances will occur in increments of no fewer than the lesser of (i) 50,000 shares and (ii) the balance of the 800,000 shares owed. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock issuable pursuant to this Agreement. As of August 19, 2019, 100,000 of these shares have been issued;
     
  the maturity date of the Note was extended to August 31, 2020;
     
  the interest rate was reduced from 10% to 5% per annum;
     
  if the Company completes an offering of equity or equity linked securities (including warrants, convertible preferred stock, convertible debentures or convertible promissory note) which results in gross proceeds to the Company of at least $4,000,000, then the Company shall use a portion of the proceeds thereof to repay not less than half of the obligations then outstanding pursuant to the Note;
     
  if the Company completes an offering of debt which results in gross proceeds to the Company of at least $3,000,000, then the Company shall use a portion of the proceeds thereof to repay any remaining obligations then outstanding pursuant to the Note;
     
  the convertibility of the Note will now be amended such that the Note shall only be convertible at a conversion price to be mutually agreed upon between the Company and the Holder. As of the date of this report, the Company and Holder have not mutually agreed on a conversion price, Since the conversion terms are unknown, the Company will account for this conversion feature when the contingency is resolved;
     
  the registration rights previously granted to Bellridge have now been eliminated; and
     
  those certain Warrants, dated June 18, 2018 and December 27, 2018, respectively, issued by the Company in favor of Bellridge shall be cancelled and of no further force or effect. In exchange, the Company will issue Bellridge 360,000 shares of restricted common stock.

 

In addition, on the Modification Date, warrant holders holding warrants exercisable into an aggregate of 4.75% of the outstanding common stock of the Company all agreed to exercise such warrants for an aggregate of 240,000 shares of common stock of the Company.

 

In connection with the modification of the Bellridge Note and the cancellation of the related warrants, under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in an Entity’s Own Stock”, the embedded conversion option contained in the convertible instrument and the Warrant and Placement Warrant were adjusted to fair value through earnings on the Modification Date. The fair value of this embedded conversion option derivative, and the Warrant and Placement Warrant were determined using the Binomial valuation model and Monte-Carlo simulation model, respectively. For the period from April 1, 2019 to April 9, 2019, the change of fair value of derivative liabilities associated with these instruments amounted to $41,653,345, which was recorded as derivative expense on the Modification date. The increase in derivative liabilities was caused by an increase in the Company’s stock price, as quoted on OTC Markets. Additionally, on the Modification Date, the Company analyzed the Bellridge Note modification and the cancellation of the warrants and pursuant to ASC 470-50, the modifications were treated as a debt extinguishment.

 

Gain on debt extinguishment

 

In connections with the RedDiamond and Bellridge debt modifications and warrants cancellations discussed above, on the Modification Date, the Company recorded a gain on debt extinguishment of $43,823,897 which consists of the following.

These statements often can be identified by the use of terms such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “approximate” or “continue,” or the negative thereof. We intend that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors for such statements. We wish to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Any forward-looking statements represent management’s best judgment as to what may occur in the future. However, forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and important factors beyond our control that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from historical results of operations and events and those presently anticipated or projected. We disclaim any obligation subsequently to revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statement or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

 

Overview

 

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on July 25, 2008 and prior to the reverse merger discussed below, were inactive.

 

On March 30, 2017 (the “Closing Date”), TLSS and Save On Transport Inc. (“Save On”) entered into a Share Exchange Agreement, dated as of the same date (the “Share Exchange Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, on the Closing Date, Save On became a wholly-owned subsidiary of TLSI (the “Reverse Merger”). Save On was incorporated in the State of Florida and started business on July 12, 2016 (“Inception Date”). Save On is a provider of integrated transportation management solutions consisting of brokerage and logistics services such as transportation scheduling, routing and other value added services related to the transportation of automobiles and other freight. As an early stage company, TLSI’s current operations are subject to all risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise.

 

The Share Exchange was treated as a reverse merger and recapitalization of Save On for financial reporting purposes since the Save On shareholders retained an approximate 80% controlling interest in the post-merger consolidated entity. Save On was considered the acquirer for accounting purposes, and the Company’s historical financial statements before the Merger were replaced with the historical financial statements of Save On before the Merger. The balance sheets at their historical cost basis of both entities were combined at the merger date and the results of operations from the merger date forward include the historical results of Save On and results of TLSI from the merger date forward. The Merger was intended to be treated as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

 

On June 18, 2018 (the “Acquisition Date”), we completed the acquisition of 100% of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Prime EFS, LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company (“Prime”), from its members pursuant to the terms and conditions of a Stock Purchase Agreement entered into among us and the Prime members on the Closing Date (the “SPA”). Prime is a New Jersey based transportation company with a focus on deliveries for on-line retailers in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

 

On July 16, 2018, we filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada to (1) change the name of the Company from PetroTerra Corp. to Transportation and Logistics Systems, Inc., (2) authorize an increase of the shares of the preferred stock to 10,000,000 shares, par value $0.001 per share and (3) effect a 1-for-250 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) with respect to the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. The Certificate of Amendment became effective on July 17, 2018. The corporate name change, increase of authorized shares of preferred stock and Reverse Stock Split were previously approved by the sole director and the majority of stockholders of the Company. The corporate name change and the Reverse Stock Split were deemed effective at the open of business on July 18, 2018. All share and per share data in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and within this Quarterly Report have been retroactively restated to reflect the effect of the recapitalization.

 

On July 24, 2018, the Company formed Shypdirect LLC (“Shypdirect”), a company organized under the laws of New Jersey. Shypdirect is a transportation company with a focus on tractor trailer and box truck deliveries of product on the east coast of the United States from one distributor’s warehouse to another warehouse or from a distributor’s warehouse to the post office.

 

On May 1, 2019, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Save On and Steven Yariv, whereby we returned all of the stock of Save On to Steven Yariv in exchange for Mr. Yariv conveying 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company back to us. In addition, the Company will grant an aggregate of 80,000 options to certain employees of Save On. Mr. Yariv ceased to be an officer or director of the Company effective with the filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 16, 2019. Pursuant to Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 205-20-45, the financial statement in which net income or loss of a business entity is reported shall report the results of operations of the discontinued operation in the period in which a discontinued operation either has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale. Accordingly, we reflect Save On as a discontinued operations beginning in the second quarter of 2019, the period that Save On was disposed of and retroactively for all other periods presented.

Total other (expenses) income include interest expense, derivative (expense) income, loan fees, and a gain on debt extinguishment. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, other expenses (income) consisted of the following:

 

   

For the Three Months Ended

June 30,

 
    2019     2018  
Interest expense   $ (1,377,051 )   $ (243,302 )
Interest expense – related party     (121,078 )     -  
Loan fees     (601,121 )     -  
Gain on debt extinguishment     43,823,897       -  
Derivative expense     (41,653,345 )     (9,721,800 )

    2019     2018  
Interest expense   $ (2,597,443 )   $ (391,555 )
Interest expense – related party     (147,639 )     -

Total Other (Expenses) Income   $ (14,466,040 )   $ (9,896,907 )

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, aggregate interest expense was $1,498,129 and $243,302, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, aggregate interest expense was $2,745,082 and $243,302, respectively. The increase in interest expense for both periods resulted from an increase in interest-bearing loans and an increase in the amortization in debt discount.

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, derivative expense was $41,653,345 and $9,721,800, respectively, an increase of $31,931,545. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, derivative expense was $55,037,605 and $9,505,352, respectively, an increase of $45,532,253. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we adjusted our derivative liabilities to fair value and recorded derivative expense. This significant change was attributable to a higher stock price and having more financials instruments treated as derivatives, including embedded conversion options and warrants, as compared to the comparable previous period.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, loan fees were $601,121 and $-0-, respectively. In connection with previous promissory notes payable, on June 11, 2019, we issued 55,000 warrants to purchase 55,000 shares of common at an exercise price of $1.00 per share. On June 11, 2019, the Company calculated the fair value of these warrants of $601,121 which was expensed and included in loan fees on the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, gain on extinguishment of debt was $43,823,897 and $43,917,768, respectively. On April 9, 2019, in connections with certain debt modifications, debt repayments, share issuances and warrants cancellations, the Company recorded a gain on debt extinguishment, During the three and six months ended June 30,2018, we did not record any gain on debt extinguishment.

 

Discontinued Operations

 

On May 1, 2019, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Save On and Steven Yariv, whereby the Company returned all of the stock of Save On to Steven Yariv in exchange for Mr. Yariv conveying 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company back to the Company. In addition, the Company granted an aggregate of 80,000 options to certain employees of Save On. Accordingly, we reflected Save On as a discontinued operations beginning in the second quarter of 2019, the period that Save On was disposed of and retroactively for all periods presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The business of Save On are considered discontinued operations because: (a) the operations and cash flows of Save On were eliminated from the Company’s operations; and (b) the Company has no interest in the divested operations. For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, (loss) income from discontinued operations amounted to $(695,087) and $45,536, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, (loss) income from discontinued operations amounted to $(681,426) and $83,601, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded stock-based option expense related to the 80,000 options granted to Save On employees of $700,816.

 

Net Loss

 

Due to factors discussed above, for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, net loss amounted to $6,961,458, or $(0.70) per basic and diluted common share, and $14,510,914, or $(13.89) per basic and diluted common share, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, net loss amounted to $26,609,181, or $(3.51) per basic and diluted common share, and $14,449,989, or $(17.87) per basic and diluted common share, respectively.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had a cash balance of $120,269 and $296,196, respectively and our working capital deficit was $11,697,417 and $12,923,440, respectively. We reported a net decrease in cash for the six months ended June 30, 2019 of $175,927.

 

Recent developments

 

On April 9, 2019, we entered into an agreement with Bellridge Capital, L.P. (“Bellridge”) that modifies our existing obligations to Bellridge as follows:

 

  the overall principal amount of that certain Convertible Promissory Note, dated June 18, 2018, issued by the Company in favor of Bellridge (the “Note”) was reduced from the original principal amount of $2,497,502 (principal amount of $2,223,918 at April 9, 2019) to $1,800,000, in exchange for the issuance to Bellridge of 800,000 shares of restricted common stock;
  the maturity date of the Note was extended to August 31, 2020;
  the interest rate was reduced from 10% to 5% per annum;
  if the Company completes an offering of equity or equity linked securities (including warrants, convertible preferred stock, convertible debentures or convertible promissory note) which results in gross proceeds to the Company of at least $4,000,000, then the Company shall use a portion of the proceeds thereof to repay not less than half of the obligations then outstanding pursuant to the Note;
  if the Company completes an offering of debt which results in gross proceeds to the Company of at least $3,000,000, then the Company shall use a portion of the proceeds thereof to repay any remaining obligations then outstanding pursuant to the Note;
  the convertibility of the Note will now be amended such that the Note shall only be convertible at a conversion price to be mutually agreed upon between the Company and the Holder. As of the date of this report, the Company and Holder have not mutually agreed on a conversion price, Since the conversion terms are unknown, we will account for this conversion feature when the contingency is resolved;
  the registration rights previously granted to Bellridge have now been eliminated; and
  those certain Warrants, dated June 18, 2018 and December 27, 2018, respectively, issued by the Company in favor of Bellridge shall be cancelled and of no further force or effect. In exchange, the Company will issue Bellridge 360,000 shares of restricted common stock.

  remove all convertibility features of the notes; and
  if the Company completes an offering of equity or equity linked securities (including warrants, convertible preferred stock, convertible debentures or convertible promissory note) which results in gross proceeds to the Company of at least $4,000,000, then the Company shall use a portion of the proceeds thereof to repay not less than half of the obligations then outstanding pursuant to the notes.

Going Concern Consideration

 

Our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we had a net loss of $26,609,181 for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The net cash used in operations was $3,115,838 for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Additionally, we had an accumulated deficit, shareholders’ deficit, and a working capital deficit of $41,379,031, $9,248,833 and $11,697,417, respectively, at June 30, 2019. Furthermore, as of June 30, 2019, the Company failed to make required payments of principal and interest on certain of its convertible debt instruments and defaulted on other provisions in these Notes. On April 9, 2019, the Company entered into agreements with these lenders that modified these Notes. It is management’s opinion that these factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the issuance date of this report. Management cannot provide assurance that we will ultimately achieve profitable operations or become cash flow positive or raise additional debt and/or equity capital. We are seeking to raise capital through additional debt and/or equity financings to fund our operations in the future. Although we have historically raised capital from sales of common shares and from the issuance of convertible promissory notes, there is no assurance that we will be able to continue to do so.

 

If we are unable to raise additional capital or secure additional lending in the near future, management expects that we will need to curtail our operations. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

We have certain fixed contractual obligations and commitments that include future estimated payments. Changes in our business needs, cancellation provisions, changing interest rates, and other factors may result in actual payments differing from the estimates. We cannot provide certainty regarding the timing and amounts of payments.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Accounting Estimates

 

The methods, estimates, and judgments that we use in applying our accounting policies have a significant impact on the results that we report in our consolidated financial statements. Some of our accounting policies require us to make difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates regarding matters that are inherently uncertain. Significant estimates included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and footnotes include the valuation of accounts receivable, the useful life of property and equipment, the valuation of intangible assets, assumptions used in assessing impairment of long-lived assets, estimates of current and deferred income taxes and deferred tax valuation allowances, the fair value of non-cash equity transactions, the valuation of derivative liabilities, and the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business acquisitions.

 

We have identified the accounting policies below as critical to our business operation:

 

Accounts receivable

 

Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses. The Company reviews the accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes general and specific allowances when there is doubt as to the collectability of individual balances. In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balance, a customer’s historical payment history, its current credit-worthiness and current economic trends. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collection.

 

Impairment of long-lived assets

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, we review long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. We recognize an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value.

 

Derivative financial instruments

 

We have certain financial instruments that are embedded derivatives associated with capital raises. We evaluate all our financial instruments to determine if those contracts or any potential embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for in accordance with ASC 810-10-05-4 and 815-40. This accounting treatment requires that the carrying amount of any embedded derivatives be recorded at fair value at issuance and marked-to-market at each balance sheet date. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, as is the case with the Company, the change in the fair value during the period is recorded as either other income or expense. Upon conversion, exercise or repayment, the respective derivative liability is marked to fair value at the conversion, repayment or exercise date and then the related fair value amount is reclassified to other income or expense as part of gain or loss on extinguishment.

 

In July 2017, FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features . These amendments simplify the accounting for certain financial instruments with down-round features. The amendments require companies to disregard the down-round feature when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to its own stock, for purposes of determining liability or equity classification. The guidance was adopted as of January 1, 2019 and we elected to record the effect of this adoption retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of the beginning of 2019, the period which the amendment is effective. In accordance with the guidance presented in ASU 2017-11, the fair value of derivative liabilities associated with certain convertible notes as of December 31, 2018 of $838,471 and the offsetting effect of reclassifying such debt to stock-settled debt for which we recorded a put premium liability of $385,385 was reclassified by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to opening accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2019 in the amount of $453,086.

 

30
 

 

Leases

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The updated guidance requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for most operating leases. In addition, the updated guidance requires that lessors separate lease and non-lease components in a contract in accordance with the new revenue guidance in ASC 606. The updated guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018.

 

On January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU No. 2016-02, applying the package of practical expedients to leases that commenced before the effective date whereby the Company elected to not reassess the following: (i) whether any expired or existing contracts contain leases and; (ii) initial direct costs for any existing leases. For contracts entered into on or after the effective date, at the inception of a contract the Company assessed whether the contract is, or contains, a lease. The Company’s assessment is based on: (1) whether the contract involves the use of a distinct identified asset, (2) whether we obtain the right to substantially all the economic benefit from the use of the asset throughout the period, and (3) whether it has the right to direct the use of the asset. We will allocate the consideration in the contract to each lease component based on its relative stand-alone price to determine the lease payments. We have elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a term of 12 months or less.

 

Operating lease ROU assets represents the right to use the leased asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the adoption date in determining the present value of future payments. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

Revenue recognition and cost of revenue

 

On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. This ASC is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This ASC also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer service orders, including significant judgments.

 

For the Company’s Save On business activities, through April 30, 2019, we recognized revenues and the related direct costs of such revenue which includes carrier fees and dispatch costs as of the date the freight is delivered by the carrier which is when the performance obligation is satisfied. Customer payments received prior to delivery are recorded as a deferred revenue liability and related carrier fees if paid prior to delivery are recorded as a deferred expense asset. In accordance with ASC Topic 606, we recognize revenue on a gross basis. Our payment terms for corporate customers are net 30 days from acceptance of delivery and individual customers generally must pay in advance. We do not incur incremental costs obtaining service orders from our Save On customers, however, if we did, because all of Save On customer’s contracts are less than a year in duration, any contract costs incurred would be expensed rather than capitalized. Our adoption of this ASC, resulted in no cumulative effect at January 1, 2018 and no change prospectively to our results of operations or financial condition. The revenue that we recognize arises from service orders we receive from our Save On customers. Our performance obligations under these service orders correspond to each delivery of a vehicle that we make for our customer under the service orders; as a result, each service order generally contains only one performance obligation based on the delivery to be completed.

 

For the Company’s Prime and Shypdirect business activities, we recognize revenues and the related direct costs of such revenue which generally include compensation and related benefits, gas costs, insurance, parking and tolls, truck rental fees, and maintenance fees as of the date the freight is delivered which is when the performance obligation is satisfied. In accordance with ASC Topic 606, we recognize revenue on a gross basis. Our payment terms are net seven days from acceptance of delivery. We do not incur incremental costs obtaining service orders from our Prime customers, however, if we did, because all of Prime and Shypdirect’s customer contracts are less than a year in duration, any contract costs incurred would be expensed rather than capitalized. The revenue that we recognize arises from deliveries of packages on behalf of the Company’s customers. Primarily, our performance obligations under these service orders correspond to each delivery of packages that we make under the service agreements. Control of the delivery transfers to the recipient upon delivery. Once this occurs, we have satisfied our performance obligation and we recognize revenue.

 

Stock-based compensation

 

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.

 

31
 

 

Through the current reporting period, pursuant to ASC 505-50 – “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”, all share-based payments to non-employees, including grants of stock options, were recognized in the consolidated financial statements as compensation expense over the service period of the consulting arrangement or until performance conditions are expected to be met. Using a Black-Scholes valuation model, the Company periodically reassessed the fair value of non-employee options until service conditions are met, which generally aligns with the vesting period of the options, and the Company adjusts the expense recognized in the consolidated financial statements accordingly. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions by expanding the scope of the stock-based compensation guidance in ASC 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from non-employees. ASU No. 2018-07 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted, but entities may not adopt prior to adopting the new revenue recognition guidance in ASC 606. The Company early adopted ASU No. 2018-07 in the second quarter of 2018 and there was no cumulative effect of adoption.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

We are not required to provide quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk because we are a smaller reporting company.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, consisting of our sole officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Rule 13a-15(e)) as of June 30, 2019. Management recognizes that any disclosure controls and procedures no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our management has assessed the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and based upon that evaluation, our sole officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2019.

 

As reported in Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of that date because of a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting. The ineffectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was due to the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting:

 

  1) Lack of a functioning audit committee due to a lack of a majority of independent members and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures;
     
  2) The Company lacks segregation of duties;
     
  3) There is a lack of segregation of duties and monitoring controls regarding accounting because there are a limited staff of accountants maintaining the books and records;
     
  4) Our Chief Executive Officer does not have significant financial experience resulting in the Company’s use of outside consultants to assist in financial expertise;
     
  5) The Company does not have adequate controls over pre-closing legal and accounting review of loan transactions;
     
  6) The Company did not have adequate controls over accounting systems that would prohibit unauthorized changes to historical accounting records. Recently, the Company implemented controls to address this situation;
     
  7) The Company lacks supervision of outside consultants who may negotiate transactions on behalf of the Company; and
     
  8) The Company has not yet implemented any internal controls over financial reporting at its recently acquired subsidiary.
     
  9) The Company lacks control over who is granted authorization to bind the Company or its subsidiaries to legal contracts.

We do not believe the material weaknesses described above caused any meaningful or significant misreporting of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2019. Management also believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and the lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our consolidated financial statements in future periods.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

On April 9, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with Bellridge that modifies its existing obligations to Bellridge.

Such issuances will occur in increments of no fewer than the lesser of (i) 50,000 shares and (ii) the balance of the 800,000 shares owed.
