Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2023
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1- ORGANIZATION, DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Background
GHST World Inc. (“the Company”), is a Delaware corporation that was incorporated on November 12, 1999. The Company is a holding company for various technology and other activities. The Company has acquired and is developing several patents in the technology sector.
Basis of Presentation
The interim unaudited financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In management's opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and reclassifications) necessary to present fairly our results of operations and cash flows for the nine months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, and our financial position as of March 31, 2024, have been made. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year.
Certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to the annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted from these interim financial statements. Accordingly, these interim unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended June 30, 2023.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Liquidity and Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared
on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course
of business for the foreseeable future. The Company had net losses of $
Management believes these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next 12 months from the date these financial statements were issued. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon
profitable future operations, positive cash flows, and additional financing. These financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recovery and classification of recorded asset amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Management intends to raise money through outside investors and related party advances as needed to support its working capital needs. Currently the Company intends to raise capital from its existing shareholders, officers and directors and from the possible sale of securities to other investors. Management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in completing these undertakings and accomplishing any of its plans.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the following wholly owned subsidiaries:
| · | GHST Art World, Inc |
| · | GHST Sport Inc. |
| · | IoTT world Inc. |
| · | Insside World Inc. |
All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

GHST WORLD, INC. Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2023 (Unaudited) |
Concentration
The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of its cash. The Company places its cash with financial institutions of high credit worthiness. At times, its cash with a particular financial institution may exceed any applicable government insurance limits. The Company’s management plans to assess the financial strength and credit worthiness of any parties to which it is a credit counterparty, and as such, it believes that any associated credit risk exposures are limited.
The Company currently receives all its revenues from one customer and all the deferred revenues from a few other customers. The company is dependent on its chairman of the Board of Directors for short term funding, who has provided a significant portion of the funding through March 31, 2024.
Foreign Currency
Transaction gains and losses are recognized in earnings. The Company is subject to foreign exchange rate fluctuations in connection with the Company’s international transactions as certain vendor payments and repayments of related party advances are done in foreign currency.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Such estimates and assumptions impact, among others, the following: fair value of share-based payments and deferred taxes.
Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from estimates.
Cash
Cash are amounts held at local banks. The Company had
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is undertaking a new business venture that is inherently subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including financial, operational, technological and other risks that could potentially have a risk of business failure.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, the core principle of which is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company recognizes revenue for its services for contracts with customers at a point in time when the services are completed. Payments received from customers in advance of when services are completed are reflected as deferred revenue on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivables are recorded at the
invoiced amount. The Company regularly reviews its receivables on a customer-by-customer basis and evaluates whether an allowance for
doubtful accounts is necessary based on any known or perceived collection issues. As of March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2023, the Company
did
Fair Value
The carrying value of cash, other assets, accounts and other payable approximate their fair value based on the liquidity or the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair value hierarchy promulgated by United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) consists of three levels:
| · | Level one — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
| · | Level two — Inputs other than level one inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable; and |
| · | Level three — Unobservable inputs developed using estimates and assumptions, which are developed by the reporting entity and reflect those assumptions that a market participant would use. |
| 6 |
GHST WORLD, INC. Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2023 (Unaudited) |
Determining which category an asset or liability falls
within the hierarchy requires significant judgment. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter. The Company has
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company accounts for impairment of long-lived assets in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, (“ASC 360”). Long-lived assets for the Company consist primarily of other assets and patents. In accordance with ASC 360, the Company periodically evaluates long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When triggering event indicators are present, the Company obtains appraisals on an asset-by-asset basis and will recognize an impairment loss when the sum of the appraised values is less than the carrying amounts of such assets. The appraised values, based on reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections, require subjective judgments. Depending on the assumptions and estimates used, the appraised values projected in the evaluation of long-lived assets can vary within a range of outcomes. The appraisals consider the likelihood of possible outcomes in determining the best estimate for the value of the assets.
Research and Development
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. These costs consist primarily of costs related to the development of new products.
Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and the respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets, including tax loss and credit carryforwards, 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. Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax 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 or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The effect of income tax positions is recognized only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs.
The Company applies the fair value method of ASC 718, Share Based Payment, in accounting for its stock-based compensation. This accounting standard states that compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period, if any. We measure stock-based compensation using the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant.
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted net loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, stock warrants, convertible debt instruments or other common stock equivalents. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive. The Company had potentially dilutive securities outstanding for the nine months ended March 31, 2024 or 2023.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). This ASU requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets. ASU 2016-13 also requires new disclosures for financial assets measured at amortized cost, loans, and available-for-sale debt securities. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2023. Adopting the standard did not have a material impact on the unaudited consolidated financial statements.
There are no other recent accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
Overview
We are a holding company for various technology and related activities. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Report”), our principal business strategy is seeking to exploit a patent and obtain and exploit future patents for the Smart Shin Guard, and developing a business through a subsidiary formed in April 2023 with an initial focus on the clean energy and defense sectors.
The Smart Shin Guard is a wearable protective device used while playing soccer and other sports combined with data collection and analysis technology that monitors players’ individual and collective physical and performance-based metrics and transmits this information to a separate module in real-time.
We have not generated revenue on a consistent basis or in amounts which are necessary to offset operating losses, and need substantial additional financing to continue the development and commercialization of our business plan and related products and service.
Recent Developments
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company has continued its development efforts with respect to the Smart Shin Guard, including working with its third party service provider to procure a newly developed prototype for the product for further research and development.
In addition, InSSIDEWorld as continued its efforts to procure solar panel systems, and is in the process of seeking the necessary financing for such systems, as well as evaluating prospective markets for selling these systems.
Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.
Fiscal Quarter Ended March 31, 2024 Compared to the Fiscal Quarter Ended March 31, 2023
We had revenues of $431 in the three months ended March 31, 2024 and no revenue in the three months ended 2023, and we sustained net losses of $27,915 and $20,998, respectively, in those periods. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, expenses consisted primarily of general and administrative expenses, including general business administration and professional fees for legal and financial services.
Nine Months Ended March 31, 2024 Compared to the Nine Months Ended March 31, 2023
We had revenues of $40,126 in the nine months ended March 31, 2024 and no revenue in the nine months ended 2023, and we sustained net losses of $464,714 and $93,446, respectively, in those periods. The revenue in the 2024 period resulted from the provision of consulting services through InSSiDe World.
Our total operating expenses were $504,764 and $93,446 during the nine months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, reflecting increased product development costs of $324,523 in the 2024 period compared to $4,178 in the 2023 period, and increased general and administrative expenses of $180,241 in the 2024 period compared to $89,268 in the 2023 period. The increase in product development costs related to research and development efforts and services for our Smart Shin Guard and our ongoing efforts with respect to InSSiDe World, each of which is still in the early stages.
We do not expect to generate material revenue on a consistent basis unless and until we can implement our business plan and begin marketing and selling our products and services in sufficient quantities, which was previously delayed due to impacts of external factors and our limited capital resources on our development efforts. We may encounter further delays, and are currently in search of collaboration partners and strategic alliances and transactions to further advance our business.
| 10 |
We also may encounter difficulties commercializing our products and services in the future based on supply chain issues, inflation and adverse market conditions which may result, as well as other factors beyond our control. In order to become profitable, we will need to establish a sufficient market for our products and services, including internationally, to offset our development, manufacturing and advertising costs, and our ability to do so will be subject to a number of factors, many of which will be beyond our control.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net Cash used by Operating Activities:
For the nine months ended March 31, 2024, net cash used in operating activities was $(127,786) as compared to net cash used in operating activities of $(92,339) for the nine months ended March 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to stock compensation of $324,523 in the 2024 period with no corresponding charge in the 2023 period, and increased accounts payable and accrued expenses in the 2024 period. We anticipate sustained or increased operational expenses as we transition our focus from product development to production and marketing efforts for the Smart Shin Guard, and as we continue to pursue new business through InSSIDe World Inc. as described above.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities:
Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2024 were $88,367 compared to $92,672 for the nine months ended March 31, 2023, reflecting an increase in advances from related parties which partially offset a lack of issuances of common in the 2024 period when compared to the 2023 period.
Liquidity
We do not have sufficient available cash as of March 31, 2024 and for the past two years we have been relying on loans from our current investors and related parties and proceeds from sales of our common stock to fund our operations. As reflected in the financial statements contained in this Report, management has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for the next 12 months from the date the financial statements were issued, unless we can raise the required capital or generate material revenue to fund our operations.
The Company expects to continue to use a portion of the authorized but unissued shares to raise capital and/or to convert previous loans made to the Company.
The Company requires additional capital to continue its development efforts with respect to its products and services, which we may not be able to obtain on favorable terms, in the quantities and within the timeframes needed, or at all.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements
This Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements regarding the development of the Smart Shin Guard and plans to begin commercializing the product, the development of InSSIDe World Inc. as a development-stage business with a focus on the clean energy and security sectors, the implementation of our business plan and expected timelines for meeting objectives, future sources of revenue such as a recent agreement with two of our subsidiaries and a third party consultant and customer, our use of common stock in capital raising efforts and to satisfy previous advances to us, and our liquidity. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “seeks,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects” and similar references to future periods.
Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. We caution you therefore against relying on any of these forward-looking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees or assurances of future performance. The results anticipated by any or all of these forward-looking statements might not occur. Important factors, uncertainties and risks that may cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements include the risks arising from the potential adverse effects of inflation, increasing interest rates in response, geopolitical conflicts such as those occurring in Israel and Ukraine and negative operational impacts or an economic downturn or recession which may result, which may result in declines in consumer spending particularly to non-essential products and services such as those that we intend to offer, global supply chain disruptions, shortages and delays which may adversely affect our ability to develop, manufacture and sell our products and services within the intended timeframes or at all, risks and uncertainties surrounding new business opportunities we pursue, and the risks summarized our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 in the section titled “Item 1A. – Risk Factors.” We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as the result of new information, future events or otherwise.

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officers, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2024 were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms because of a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, the Company did not maintain effective controls to identify and maintain segregation of duties to support the identification, authorization, approval, accounting for, and the disclosure of related-party transactions and non-routine transactions. One individual, the Chief Executive Officer, initiates related-party transactions and non-routine transactions and also reviews, evaluates and approves these same transactions.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act that occurred during the period covered by this Report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
