TRUTANKLESS INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2021
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization
The Company was incorporated on March 7, 2008 under the laws of the State of Nevada, as Alcantara Brands Corporation. On October 5, 2010, the Company amended its articles of incorporation and changed its name to Bollente Companies, Inc. On June 4, 2018, the Company amended its articles of incorporation and changed its name to Trutankless, Inc.
The Company is involved in sales, marketing, research and development of a high quality, whole-house, smart electric tankless water heater that is more energy efficient than conventional products. Management anticipates the Company’s trutankless water heater, with Wi-Fi capability and Trutankless’ proprietary apps offered in the iOS and Android store, will augment existing products in the home automation space.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. As such, the information included in the consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2021 should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC.
The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020, included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures including notes required by GAAP.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the year ending December 31, 2020.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Trutankless, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. On May 16, 2010, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of Bollente, Inc and Bollente International, Inc. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Cash For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of these investments approximates fair value.
Stock-based compensation
The Company follows ASC 718-10, “Stock Compensation”, which addresses the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, with a primary focus on transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. ASC 718-10 is a revision to SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and supersedes Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and its related implementation guidance. ASC 718-10 requires measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). Incremental compensation costs arising from subsequent modifications of awards after the grant date must be recognized.
7
Earnings per share
The Company follows ASC Topic 260 to account for the earnings per share. Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding. During periods when common stock equivalents, if any, are anti-dilutive they are not considered in the computation.
Inventory
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (average cost) or net realizable value.
Revenue recognition
We recognize revenue in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as outlined in the Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue From Contracts with Customers, which requires that five basic criteria be met before revenue can be recognized: (i) identify the contract with the customer; (ii) identity the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price; and (v) recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfied a performance obligation.
Revenue recognition occurs at the time product is shipped to customers, when control transfers to customers, provided there are no material remaining performance obligations required of the Company or any matters of customer acceptance. We only record revenue when collectability is probable.
Fair value of financial instruments
The Company measures fair value in accordance with ASC 820 - Fair Value Measurements. ASC 820 defines fair value and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by ASC 820 are:
Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
Level 2 - Inputs (other than quoted market prices included in Level 1) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life.
Level 3 - Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model. Valuation of instruments includes unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.
As defined by ASC 820, the fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale, which was further clarified as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (“an exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The reported fair values for financial instruments that use Level 2 and Level 3 inputs to determine fair value are based on a variety of factors and assumptions. Accordingly, certain fair values may not represent actual values of the Company’s financial instruments that could have been realized as of March 31, 2021 or that will be recognized in the future, and do not include expenses that could be incurred in an actual settlement. The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts receivable, receivables from related parties, prepaid expenses and other, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and related party and third-party notes payables approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities. The Company’s notes payable to related parties approximates the fair value of such instrument based upon management’s best estimate of terms that would be available to the Company for similar financial arrangements at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.
Management evaluated all relevant conditions and events that are reasonably known or reasonably knowable, in the aggregate, as of the date the consolidated financial statements are issued and determined that substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to generate revenues and raise capital. The Company has not generated sufficient revenues from product sales to provide sufficient cash flows to enable the Company to finance its operations internally. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had $
Over the next twelve months management plans to raise additional capital and to invest its working capital resources in sales and marketing in order to increase the distribution and demand for its products. However, there is no guarantee the Company will generate sufficient revenues or raise capital to continue operations. If the Company fails to generate sufficient revenue and obtain additional capital to continue at its expected level of operations, the Company may be forced to scale back or discontinue its sales and marketing efforts. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 6 - RELATED PARTY
As of March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020, the Company had two notes payable due to an officer and director of the Company in the amount of $
In January 2019, the Company executed a lease agreement with Templar Asset Group, LLC, a related party. The lease term is one year at a rate of $
On February 5, 2020, the Company agreed to settle a certain $900,000 convertible note payable issued to a shareholder dated August 2, 2016 and $312,006 in accrued interest. As part of the settlement the Company issued 1,000,000, 5 year warrants exercisable at $0.50 per share valued at $781,755 (See Note 9),
The new note is due in two payments, $250,000 January 2, 2022 and $250,000 on January 2, 2023. Interest will accrue from the date of this Note on the unpaid and outstanding Principal balance to be paid as follows: (a) Fifty-Four Thousand Nine Hundred Ninety-Three and 37/100 Dollars ($54,993.37) on January 4, 2021; plus (b) three hundred thousand (300,000) shares of common Stock, by January 3, 2022, plus (c) six hundred thousand (600,000) shares of common stock on January 3, 2023. The Company evaluated the modification under ASC 470-50 and determined that the modifications were considered substantial and qualified for extinguishment accounting under such guidance. As such the Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $1,725,879 associated with the excess reacquisition cost of the new debt over the carrying value of the original debt. On January 4, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement with the note holder to convert $200,000 of the principal balance of the note and to extend the payment date of the first interest payment of $54,993.87 to January 2, 2023. As consideration, the Company issued the noteholder

Payroll Protection Program
On May 4, 2020, we received funds under the Paycheck Protection Program, a part of the CARES Act. The loan is serviced by Bank of America, and the application for these funds required us to, in good faith, certify that the current economic uncertainty made the loan necessary to support our ongoing operations. We used the funds for payroll and related costs. The receipt of these funds, and the forgiveness of the loan attendant to these funds, is dependent on our ability to adhere to the forgiveness criteria. The loan bears interest at a rate of 1.0% per annum and matures on May 4, 2022, with the first payment deferred until November 2020. Under the terms of the PPP, certain amounts may be forgiven if they are used in accordance with the CARES Act. The Company believes that the full amount of the $

NOTE 8 - DERIVATIVE LIABILITY
The Company accounts for the fair value of the conversion features of its convertible debt in accordance with ASC Topic No. 815-15 “Derivatives and Hedging; Embedded Derivatives” (“Topic No. 815-15”). Topic No. 815-15 requires the Company to bifurcate and separately account for the conversion features as an embedded derivative contained in the Company’s convertible debt. The Company is required to carry the embedded derivative on its balance sheet at fair value and account for any unrealized change in fair value as a component of results of operations. The Company values the embedded derivatives using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The Company has determined that all convertible debt while having variable conversion prices also include floor prices. Therefore the shares issuable are not indeterminate and the conversion feature is not required to be bifurcated under ASC 815.

NOTE 9 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Operating Lease Agreements
The Company determines whether or not a contract contains a lease based on whether or not it provides the Company with the use of a specifically identified asset for a period of time, as well as both the right to direct the use of that asset and receive the significant economic benefits of the asset. The Company elected the transition relief package of practical expedients, and as a result, we did not assess 1) whether existing or expired contracts contain embedded leases, 2) lease classification for any existing or expired leases, and 3) whether lease origination costs qualified as initial direct costs. We elected the short-term lease practical expedient by establishing an accounting policy to exclude leases with a term of 12 months or less.
The Company has entered into lease agreements as a lessee for the use of office space. These lease agreements are classified as operating leases and the liability and right-of-use asset are recognized on the balance sheet at lease commencement. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet and are recognized as lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. As a result of the adoption of ASC 842, the Company recognized an operating lease liability and right-of-use asset of $64,978.
The discount rate utilized for classification and measurement purposes as of the inception date of the lease is based on the Company’s collateralized incremental interest rate to borrow of 12%, as the rate implicit in the lease is not determinable.
During 2018, the Company executed a lease agreement. The lease term is 39 months at a rate of $1,680 per month with 3% increases beginning January 1, 2021 and rent commencing on January 1, 2019. The Company was required to pay a $1,781 security deposit.
In January 2019, the Company executed a lease agreement with Templar Asset Group, LLC, a related party. The lease term is one year at a rate of $4,200 per month for a period of one year with an option to continue a month to month basis thereafter. Under ASC 842, this lease is not recorded on the balance sheet as its term is 12 months or less.

General
Trutankless Inc. was incorporated in the state of Nevada on March 7, 2008. The Company is headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona and currently operates through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Bollente, Inc., a Nevada corporation incorporated on December 3, 2009.
Trutankless is involved in sales, marketing, research and development of a high quality, whole-house, smart electric tankless water heater that is more energy efficient than conventional products. Management anticipates the Company’s trutankless water heater, with Wi-Fi capability and trutankless’ proprietary apps offered in the iOS and Android store, will augment existing products in the hope automation space.
Trutankless® Products
We manufacture and distribute trutankless® water heaters, a line of new, high-quality, highly efficient electric tankless water heaters. Our trutankless® water heaters are engineered to outperform and outlast both its tank and tankless predecessors in energy efficiency, output, and durability. It provides endless hot water on demand for a whole household and it also integrates with home automation systems.
We have several features and design innovations which are new to the electric tankless water heater market that we believe will give our products a sustainable competitive advantage over our rivals in the market.
Our trutankless® water heaters are available through wholesale plumbing distributors, including Ferguson, Hajoca, WinSupply locations, Morrison Supply, and several regional distributors. A partial listing of wholesalers may be found on our website (www.trutankless.com).
21
Our trutankless® water heaters are designed to provide an endless hot water supply because they are designed to heat water as it flows through the system. We believe that our products are capable of higher temperature rise than competitive units at given flow rates because of its improved design and greater efficiency. Our trutankless® water heaters can save energy and reduce operating costs compared to tank systems because unlike tanks, if there is no hot water demand, no energy is being used. In addition, we intend to improve life-cycle costs with an improved design conceived not only to increase efficiency, but also the longevity of our products versus competitive units. Generally, a typical tank water heater lasts about 9 years, whereas gas tankless systems may last longer, but requires more routine maintenance. Our product line is designed to last longer than tank water heaters without any routine maintenance required under most conditions.
We created a custom heat exchanger for our trutankless® product line that utilizes our patented technology to heat water as it flows through the system, which means customers need not worry about running out of hot water. We believe we’ve selected the best materials available and a collection of exclusive design elements and features to maximize capacity, minimize energy use, and provide a truly maintenance free experience.
Our trutankless® water heaters were officially launched in the first quarter of 2014 and is sold throughout the wholesale plumbing distribution channel. We began generating revenue in the first quarter of 2014. As of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, we generated $238,912 in revenue.

From the dashboard, residential and commercial users can obtain real-time status reports, adjust unit temperature settings, view up to three years of water usage data, and change notification settings from anywhere in the world, using a computer or web-enabled smart device at home.trutankless.com.
Additionally, service professionals can also use the www.pro.trutankless.com dashboard to monitor system status on every unit they install, allowing them to proactively contact their customers if a service or warranty appointment is needed.
Our primary markets, Florida, Texas, Arizona, and the rest of the Sunbelt region are centers of growth in the U.S. construction industry with green building at an all-time high, and an unprecedented appliance replacement cycle. We intend to take advantage of these powerful macro-economic trends.

Recent Developments
COVID-19 Pandemic
In December 2019, an outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus originated in Wuhan, China (“COVID-19”) and has since spread worldwide, including to the Unites States (the “U.S.”), posing public health risks that have reached pandemic proportions (the “COVID-19 Pandemic”). The COVID-19 Pandemic poses a threat to the health and economic wellbeing of our employees, customers and vendors. The operation of all of our facilities is critically dependent on our employees who staff these locations. To ensure the wellbeing of our employees and their families, we have provided all of our employees with detailed health and safety literature on COVID-19, such as the Center for Disease Control (the “CDC”)’s industry-specific guidelines for working with the deceased who were and may have been infected with COVID-19. In addition, our procurement and safety teams have updated and developed new safety-oriented guidelines to support daily field operations and provided personal protection equipment to those employees whose positions necessitate them, and we have implemented work from home policies at our corporate office consistent with CDC guidance to reduce the risks of exposure to COVID-19 while still supporting the families that we serve.
Like most businesses world-wide, the COVID-19 Pandemic has impacted us financially; however, we cannot presently predict the scope and severity with which COVID-19 will impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. However, COVID-19 has caused severe disruptions in client support, development and limited access to the Company’s books and records resulting in limited support from staff and professional advisors. This has, in turn, delayed the Company’s ability to conduct necessary work to finalize its financial statements which may otherwise impact the Company’s ability to complete its Quarterly Report. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we anticipate filing our Quarterly Report on or before June 29, 2020, which is within the 45-day period from the Report’s original filing deadline of May 15, 2020, provided by SEC Release No. 34-88465.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2020.
Revenues
In the three months ended March 31, 2021, we generated $172,838 in revenues, as compared to $539,561 in revenues in the prior year. The decrease in sales was attributable to less sales of our trutankless® residential and light commercial products. Cost of goods sold was $135,092 in the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $246,532 in the three months ended March 31, 2020. This decrease in cost of goods sold was primarily attributable to a decrease in cost of inventory.
To the knowledge of management, the Company is unaware of any trends or uncertainties in the sales or costs of our products and services for the periods discussed.
Expenses
Operating expenses totaled $1,762,473 during the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to $773,760 in the prior year. In the three-month period ended March 31, 2021, our expenses primarily consisted of General and Administrative of $356,609, Research and development of 140,490 and Professional fees of $1,265,374.
General and administrative fees decreased $22,123, or approximately 6% to $356,609 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 from $378,732 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in wages and marketing.
Research and development increased $76,412, or approximately 119% to $140,490 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 from $64,078 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. This increase is attributed primarily to the increased consulting fees associated with the Company’s research and development efforts.
24
Professional fees increased $934,424, or approximately 282% to $1,265,374 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 from $330,950 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Professional fees increased due to an increase in consulting fees associated with business development.
Other Expenses
Other expenses decreased $2,469,199 to $552,219 in the three months ended March 31, 2021 from $3,021,418 in the three months ended March 31, 2020. The decrease was the result of a losses incurred from the extinguishment of debt during the prior year.
Net Loss
In the three months ended March 31, 2021, we generated a net loss of $2,276,946, a decrease of $1,225,203 from $3,502,149 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. This decrease was attributable to a decrease in stock based consulting payments.
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles that contemplate the continuance of the Company as a going concern.
Management evaluated all relevant conditions and events that are reasonably known or reasonably knowable, in the aggregate, as of the date the consolidated financial statements are issued and determined that substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date of this filing. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to generate revenues and raise capital. The Company has not generated sufficient revenues from product sales to provide sufficient cash flows to enable the Company to finance its operations internally. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had $46,174 cash on hand. At March 31, 2021, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $45,270,017. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company had a net loss of $2,276,946, and cash used in operations of $866,744. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Over the next twelve months the Company intends to invest its working capital resources in sales and marketing in order to increase the distribution and demand for its products. If the Company fails to generate sufficient revenue and obtain additional capital to continue at its expected level of operations, the Company may be forced to scale back or discontinue its sales and marketing efforts. However, there is no guarantee the Company will generate sufficient revenues or raise capital to continue operations. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
In December 2019, an outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus originated in Wuhan, China (“COVID-19”) and has since spread worldwide, including to the Unites States, posing public health risks that have reached pandemic proportions (the “COVID-19 Pandemic”). The COVID-19 Pandemic poses a threat to the health and economic wellbeing of our employees, customers and vendors. Like most businesses world-wide, the COVID-19 Pandemic has impacted the Company financially; however, management cannot presently predict the scope and severity with which COVID-19 will impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At March 31, 2021, we had an accumulated deficit of $45,300,067. Primarily because of our history of operating losses and our recording of note payables, we have a working capital deficiency of $2,554,276 at March 31, 2021. Losses have been funded primarily through issuance of common stock and borrowings from our stockholders and third-party debt. As of March 31, 2021, we had $46,174 in cash, $86,410 in accounts receivable, $439,663 in inventory, and $595,877 in prepaid expenses. We used net cash in operating activities of $866,744 for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

The following table provides detailed information about our net cash flow for all financial statement periods presented in this Quarterly Report. To date, we have financed our operations through the issuance of stock and borrowings.

Operating activities - Net cash used in operating activities was $866,744 for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $346,070 used in operating activities for the same period in 2020. The increase in net cash used in operating activities was primarily due to an increase in consulting contract cost.
Investing activities - Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $22,753 as compared to $0 for the same period of 2020. The increase in net cash used in investing activities was attributable to purchase of tooling associated with manufacturing our inventory.
Financing activities - Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $784,043 as compared to $388,233 for the same period of 2020. The increase of net cash provided by financing activities was mainly attributable to more equity financing.
Ongoing Funding Requirements
As of March 31, 2021, we continue to use traditional and/or debt financing to provide the capital we need to run the business. It is possible that we may need additional funding to enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditures requirements.
Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial product revenues, we intend to finance our cash needs through a combination of equity offerings, debt financings, collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. There can be no assurance that any of those sources of funding will be available when needed on acceptable terms or at all. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership interests of existing stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of existing stockholders. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise funds through collaborations, strategic alliances or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams, research programs or product candidates or to grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings or relationships with third parties when needed or on acceptable terms, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product development or future commercialization efforts; abandon our business strategy of growth through acquisitions; or grant rights to develop and market product candidates that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.
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 is material to investors.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on
26
historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions.
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies as compared to the critical accounting policies and significant judgements and estimates disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on June 24, 2021.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
This item in not applicable as we are currently considered a smaller reporting company.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the Company’s last fiscal quarter, the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s current management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer (Principal Financial and Accounting Officer), who concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not effective.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Company reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer (Principal Financial and Accounting Officer), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting
Management reviews the Company’s system of internal control over financial reporting and makes changes to the Company’s processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that the Company maintains an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities and migrating processes.
During the Company’s last fiscal quarter, there was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
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.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business.

We are not presently a party to any material litigation, nor to the knowledge of management is any litigation threatened against us, which may materially affect us.
