LIMITLESS X HOLDINGS INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 – Organization and History
On May 11, 2022, Bio Lab Naturals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Bio Lab”), entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Limitless X, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“LimitlessX”), and its 11 shareholders (the “LimitlessX Acquisition”). The parties completed and closed the LimitlessX Acquisition on May 20, 2022 by issuing an aggregate of shares of common stock of Bio Lab to the LimitlessX shareholders (the “Acquisition Closing”). According to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, Bio Lab then issued an additional shares of common stock to the LimitlessX shareholders pro rata to their interests approximately six months from the Acquisition Closing as part of the LimitlessX Acquisition. Concurrently with the LimitlessX Acquisition, Jaspreet Mathur, the founder and principal shareholder of LimitlessX, also purchased from Helion Holdings LLC, shares of Bio Lab’s Class A Preferred Convertible Stock, which at all times have a number of votes equal to % of all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Bio Lab.
On June 10, 2022, Bio Lab changed its name to Limitless X Holdings Inc. (“Limitless”).
The LimitlessX Acquisition was accounted for as a “reverse merger” following the completion of the transaction. For accounting purposes, LimitlessX was deemed to be the accounting acquirer in the transaction and, consequently, the transaction was treated as a recapitalization of Bio Lab. Accordingly, LimitlessX’s assets, liabilities, and results of operations became the historical financial statements of the registrant. No step-up in basis or intangible assets or goodwill was recorded in this transaction.
The Company (as defined below) is a lifestyle brand, focused in the health and wellness industry. The Company provides nutritional supplements, wellness studies, interactive training videos, and marketing products. The Company’s mission is to provide businesses within its industry a turnkey solution to sell products both online and in retail stores. The Company also provides its own products and wellness videos suitable for a wide range of ages and fitness. Company teams include sales, marketing, user interface design (UI), user experience design (UX), fulfillment, customer support, labeling, product manufacturing, consulting, retailing, and payment processing, among others.
The Company currently offers products online only, but anticipates expanding to brick-and-motor retail stores and the wholesale marketplace in the future. The Company has manufacturing and distribution licensing agreements to market, manufacture, sell, and distribute branded products on behalf of its clients. The Company orders products from third party partner manufacturers that make the products according to the Company’s custom formulations, and brands them using the Company’s licensed trademarks. Products are then marketed and sold direct to consumers online. Orders are fulfilled and shipped directly from the Company’s licensors. The Company plans to offer global marketing services across all areas of the sales process, including market research, brand and product development, and digital advertising operating as an integrated marketing agency.
The Company operates in the following product and service sectors: (i) health products and (ii) digital marketing services. The health products sector includes the sales of health products in three primary vertical markets: (1) health & wellness; (2) beauty & skincare; and (3) the vapor industry. The digital marketing service sector includes digital marketing; digital and print design; social media marketing; and direct-to-consumer marketing.
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation and Reporting
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Limitless X Holdings Inc. (a holding company) and its wholly owned operating subsidiaries: Limitless X, Inc.; Vybe Lab Inc.; and Prime Time Live, Inc. (collectively, the “Company”). All intercompany balances have been eliminated during consolidation.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“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 financial statements. Estimates also affect the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all liquid investments purchased with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include demand deposits carried at cost which approximates fair value. The Company maintains its cash in institutions insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”).
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company offers its services to a small number of clients. The risk of non-payment by these clients is considered minimal and the Company does not generally obtain collateral for sales. The Company continually monitors the credit standing of its clients.
Accounts Receivable, net
Accounts
receivable, net consists primarily of trade receivables, net of allowances for doubtful accounts. The Company sells its products for
cash or on credit terms, which are established in accordance with local and industry practices and typically require payment within 30
days of delivery. The Company estimates its allowance for doubtful accounts and the related expected credit loss based upon the Company’s
historical credit loss experience, adjusted for asset-specific risk characteristics, current economic conditions, and reasonable forecasts.
Accounts receivables are written off when determined to be uncollectible. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company required
an allowance for doubtful accounts of $
Holdback Receivables
The Company primarily sells its products online using various third party sales affiliates. These affiliates (online marketing campaign companies) are paid certain commission based on their ability to provide the Company’s products through online sales. All payments are processed through various gateways and are settled through the Company’s payment gateway settler. The Company payment gateway settler is not responsible for settlements that are not paid due to processing bank failure. The Company holds responsibility for all the risk in all transactions and processing systems. The payment gateway settler charges a reserve fee to mitigate the risk on their end for any loss of funds or damages.
Distributions of the holdback receivables from the third-party payment gateway settler are based on several criteria, such as return and chargeback history, associated risk for the specific business vertical, average transaction amount, and so on. In order to mitigate processing risks, there are policies regarding reserve requirements and payment in arrears in place.
The
total holdback receivables balance reflects the

Inventories, net
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value on a first-in, first-out basis, adjusted for the value of inventory that is determined to be excess, obsolete, expired, or unsaleable. Inventories primarily consisted of finished goods.
Advertising and Marketing
Advertising
and marketing costs are charged to expense as incurred. Advertising and marketing costs were approximately $
Equipment
Equipment is recorded at cost and consists of screen video and related equipment. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized and minor replacements, maintenance, and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When equipment is retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations for the respective period. Depreciation of equipment is over the estimated useful life of five to ten years using the straight-line method for consolidated financial statement purposes.

Revenue Recognition
Product Sales
The Company recognizes revenue when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with its customer are satisfied. The Company has determined that fulfilling and delivering products is a single performance obligation. Revenue is recognized at the point in time when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation and the customer has obtained control of the products or when the service is fully .. This generally occurs when the product is delivered to or picked up by the customer based on applicable shipping terms, which is typically within 15 days. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for fulfilled product orders,
While customers generally have a right to return defective or non-conforming products, past experience has demonstrated that product returns have been immaterial. Customer remedies for defective or non-conforming products may include a refund or exchange. As a result, the right of return is estimated and recorded as a reduction in revenue at the time of sale, if necessary.
The Company’s customer contracts identify product quantity, price, and payment terms. Payment terms are granted consistent with industry standards. Although some payment terms may be extended, the majority of the Company’s payment terms are less than 30 days. As a result, revenue is not adjusted for the effects of a significant financing component. Amounts billed and due from customers are classified as Accounts Receivables on the Balance Sheet.
| 9 |
The Company utilizes third-party contract manufacturers for the manufacture of its products. The Company has evaluated whether it is the principal or agent in these relationships. The Company has determined that it is the principal in all cases as it retains the responsibility for fulfillment and risk of loss, as well as for establishing the price.
In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company has elected the practical expedient to expense the incremental costs to obtain a contract, because the amortization period would be less than one year, and the practical expedient for shipping and handling costs. Shipping and handling costs incurred to deliver products to customers are accounted for as fulfillment activities, rather than a promised service, and as such are included in Cost of Goods Sold in the Statements of Operations.
Service Revenue
Service revenue consists of digital marketing revenue.
Revenue
related to digital marketing is recognized over time as services are provided to the customer. The Company sells digital marketing, digital and
print design, social media marketing, and direct-to-consumer marketing and thus uses standalone selling prices as the basis for revenue.
Payment for digital marketing services is typically received at the point when control transfers to the customer or in accordance with
payment terms customary to the business. There was
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales includes the cost of inventory sold during the period, as well as, commission fees, returns, chargebacks, distribution, and, shipping and handling costs. The amount shown is net of various rebates from third-party vendors in the form of payments.
Refunds Payable
If
customers are not satisfied for any reason, they may request a full refund, processed to the original form of payment, within 30 days
from the order date. If the order has already been shipped, the Company charges a

Once
customers successfully dispute chargebacks with the payment processor, the Company returns such funds to the payment processor to return
to the customer. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the average rate of return was
As

Other Comprehensive Loss
The Company has no material components of other comprehensive loss and accordingly, net loss is equal to comprehensive loss for the period.
| 10 |
Debt
Convertible debt – derivative treatment – When the Company issues debt with a conversion feature, it must first assess whether the conversion feature meets the requirements to be treated as a derivative, as follows: a) one or more underlying terms, typically the price of the Company’s common stock; b) one or more notional amounts or payment provisions or both, generally the number of shares upon conversion; c) no initial net investment, which typically excludes the amount borrowed; and d) net settlement provisions, which in the case of convertible debt generally means the stock received upon conversion can be readily sold for cash. An embedded equity-linked component that meets the definition of a derivative does not have to be separated from the host instrument if the component qualifies for the scope exception for certain contracts involving an issuer’s own equity. The scope exception applies if the contract is both a) indexed to its own stock; and b) classified in shareholders’ equity in its statement of financial position.
If the conversion feature within convertible debt meets the requirements to be treated as a derivative, the Company estimates the fair value of the convertible debt derivative using the Black Scholes method upon the date of issuance. If the fair value of the convertible debt derivative is higher than the face value of the convertible debt, the excess is immediately recognized as interest expense. Otherwise, the fair value of the convertible debt derivative is recorded as a liability with an offsetting amount recorded as a debt discount, which offsets the carrying amount of the debt. The convertible debt derivative is revalued at the end of each reporting period and any change in fair value is recorded as a gain or loss in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The debt discount is amortized through interest expense over the life of the debt.
If the conversion feature does not qualify for either the derivative treatment, the convertible debt is treated as traditional debt.
Income Taxes
The
accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected
to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under that guidance, the Company may recognize the tax
benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing
authorities based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position
are measured based on the largest benefit that has a
The Company calculates earnings per share in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, which requires a dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the fiscal year. shares of common stock underlying convertible promissory notes during the three months ended March 31, 2023 were not included in the computation of diluted Earnings Per Share for the same period as the inclusion would have been antidilutive, given the Company’s net loss.
The Company accounts for equity-based payment accruals under authoritative guidance as set forth in the Topics of the ASC. The guidance requires all equity-based payments to employees and non-employees, including grants of employee and non-employee stock options and warrants, to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements based at their fair values. The Company applies the provisions of ASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation,” using a modified prospective application, and the Black-Scholes model to value stock options. Under this application, the Company records compensation expense for all awards granted. Compensation costs will be recognized over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award. During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company granted no securities under its 2020 Stock Incentive Plan and 2022 Stock Option Plan.
| 11 |
General Concentrations of Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are accounts receivable and other receivables arising from its normal business activities. The Company has a diversified customer base. The Company controls credit risk related to accounts receivable through credit approvals, credit limits, and monitoring procedures. The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and, based upon factors surrounding the credit risk, establishes an allowance, if required, for uncollectible accounts and, as a consequence, believes that its accounts receivable related credit risk exposure beyond such allowance is limited.
The
Company purchases merchandise from six suppliers, and the Company’s three largest suppliers accounted for
A substantial amount of the Company’s inventory is manufactured abroad. From time to time, shipping ports experience capacity constraints (such as delays associated with COVID-19), labor strikes, work stoppages or other disruptions that may delay the delivery of imported products. A contract dispute may lead to protracted delays in the movement of the Company’s products, which could further delay the delivery of products to the Company’s online stores and impact net sales and profitability. In addition, other conditions outside of the Company’s control, such as adverse weather conditions or acts of terrorism or war, such as the current conflict in Ukraine, could significantly disrupt operations at shipping ports or otherwise impact transportation of the imported merchandise the Company sells, either through supply chain disruptions or rising freight and fuel costs.
Operating Lease
In accordance with ASC 842, Leases, the Company determines whether an arrangement contains a lease at inception. A lease is a contract that provides the right to control an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. For identified leases, the Company determines whether it should be classified as an operating or finance lease. Operating leases are recorded in the balance sheet as: right-of-use asset (“ROU asset”) and operating lease liability. ROU asset represents the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liability represents the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease and measured based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The ROU asset also includes deferred rent liabilities. The Company’s lease arrangements generally do not provide an implicit interest rate. As a result, in such situations the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that it will exercise that option in the measurement of its ROU asset and liability. Lease expense for the operating lease is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has a lease agreement with lease and non-lease components, which are accounted for as a single lease component.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2019, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which amends existing guidance related to the accounting for income taxes. This ASU is intended to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles of accounting for income taxes and to improve the consistent application of GAAP for other areas of accounting for income taxes by clarifying and amending existing guidance. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects adoption of this guidance will have on the financial statements and does not expect that the adoption of this ASU will be material to its financial statements.
| 12 |
Note 3 – Fair Value Measurements
The Company utilizes ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure, for valuing financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. The guidance also establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. The guidance establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
| Level 1. | Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; | |
| Level 2. | Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and | |
| Level 3. | Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. |
The carrying value of financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value is measured on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value when a significant event occurs. There were no financial assets or liabilities carried and measured on a nonrecurring basis during the reporting periods. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value each time a financial statement is prepared. There have been no transfers between levels.
| 13 |
Note 4 – Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Generally, the implicit rate of interest in arrangements is not readily determinable and the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate is a hypothetical rate based on its understanding of what its credit rating would be. The operating lease ROU asset includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. The Company’s variable lease payments primarily consist of maintenance and other operating expenses from their real estate leases. Variable lease payments are excluded from the ROU assets and lease liabilities and are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. The Company has elected to account for these lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Forward-Looking Statements and Associated Risks.
This Form 10-Q contains certain statements that are forward-looking within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. For this purpose, any statements contained in this Form 10-Q that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the foregoing, words such as “may,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “continue” or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially depending on a variety of factors, many of which are not within our control. These factors include but are not limited to economic conditions generally and in the industries in which we may participate; competition within our chosen industry, including competition from much larger competitors; and failure to successfully develop business relationships.
INTRODUCTION
As previously reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 13, 2022, Bio Lab Naturals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Bio Lab”), entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Limitless X, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“LimitlessX”), and its 11 shareholders (the “LimitlessX Acquisition”) on May 11, 2022. The parties completed and closed the LimitlessX Acquisition on May 20, 2022 by issuing an aggregate of 3,233,334 shares of common stock of Bio Lab to the LimitlessX shareholders (the “Acquisition Closing”). According to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, Bio Lab then issued an additional 300,000 shares of common stock to the LimitlessX shareholders pro rata to their interests in approximately six months from the Acquisition Closing as part of the Limitless Acquisition. Concurrently with the LimitlessX Acquisition, Jaspreet Mathur, the founder and principal shareholder of LimitlessX, also purchased from Helion Holdings LLC, 500,000 shares of Bio Lab’s Class A Preferred Convertible Stock, which at all times have a number of votes equal to 60% of all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Bio Lab.
For accounting purposes, the LimitlessX Acquisition was accounted for as a “reverse merger” with LimitlessX as the accounting acquiror (legal acquiree) and Bio Lab as the accounting acquiree (legal acquiror). and, consequently, the transaction was treated as a recapitalization of Bio Lab. Since LimitlessX was deemed to be the accounting acquiror in the LimitlessX Acquisition, the historical financial information for periods prior to the LimitlessX Acquisition reflect the financial information and activities solely of LimitlessX and not of Bio Lab. No step-up in basis or intangible assets or goodwill was recorded in this transaction.
On June 10, 2022, Bio Lab changed its name to Limitless X Holdings Inc. (“we,” “us,” or “our”).

Product Sales - Our product sales decreased by 7% to $6.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to $7.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. In 2023, there was a shift in our marketing strategies, including a change in performance marketers.
Service Revenue - Our service revenue increased by $291,764 to $291,764 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Our service revenue increase was primarily due to us starting our marketing services in May 2022.
Cost of Sales - Our cost of sales increased from $882,549, 12% of sales, to $1.2 million, 18% of sales. This increase was primarily due to our new product lines that began being sold in November 2022 with lower margins. As operations increased during the period, so did our costs for freight, inventory, and other supplies.
Gross Profit - Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $5.6 million compared to $6.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in gross profit of $347,345 was primarily a shift in our marketing strategies, including a change in performance marketers.
Operating Expenses - During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we recognized $14.2 million in operating expenses compared to $5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase of $8.4 million in operating expenses was primarily due to advertising and marketing, payroll, transaction fees, merchant fees, royalty fees, and bad debt expense.
| ● | Our advertising and marketing expense increased by $4.8 million due to a shift in marketing strategies to heavily push our related products by using performance marketers and celebrity endorsements. | |
| ● | The increase in transaction payroll is related to accruals of unpaid salaries. | |
| ● | The increase in transaction fees and merchant fees are directly related to the increased number of transactions during the three months ended March 31, 2023. | |
| ● | The increase of $232,374 in bad debt expense was due to accounts receivable being deemed uncollectible. | |
| ● | Beginning on April 1, 2022, we began accruing royalties per the manufacturing and distributorship license agreements of 4.00% of gross sales, excluding returns, chargebacks, and other such allowances. Thus, the royalty fees increased by $284,628 during the March 31, 2023. |
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
Based on management’s evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as a result of the material weakness described below, as of March 31, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not designed at a reasonable assurance level and are ineffective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
The material weakness, which relates to internal control over financial reporting, that was identified is:
We did not have sufficient personnel in our accounting and financial reporting functions. As a result, we were not able to achieve adequate segregation of duties and were not able to provide for independent adequate reviewing of the financial statements. This control deficiency, which is pervasive in nature, results in a reasonable possibility that material misstatements of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Management believes that the hiring of additional personnel who have the technical expertise and knowledge with the non-routine or technical issues we have encountered in the past will result in both proper recording of these transactions and a much more knowledgeable finance department as a whole. Due to the fact that our accounting staff consists of a Chief Financial Officer, a bookkeeper, and external accounting consultants, additional personnel will also ensure the proper segregation of duties and provide more checks and balances within the department. Additional personnel will also provide the cross training needed to support us if personnel turnover issues within the department occur. We believe this will eliminate or greatly decrease any control and procedure issues we may encounter in the future.
We will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We recently hired a new Chief Financial Officer and have new management. We anticipate that our management, including our Chief Financial Officer, and our independent registered public accounting firm, will discuss the status of our financial controls and procedures and determine what changes are necessary to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We anticipate that a number of changes in our financial controls and procedures will be made in the ensuing periods.
