REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
FIRM
To the
Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Bitzumi,
Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have
audited the accompanying balance sheet of Bitzumi, Inc. (the
Company) as of December 31, 2017, and the related statements of
operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the period
from June 13, 2017 (inception) through December 31, 2017, and the
related notes (collectively referred to as the financial
statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Company as of December 31, 2017, and the results of its operations
and its cash flows for the period from June 13, 2017 (inception)
through December 31, 2017, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern Uncertainty
These
financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the
financial statements, the Company has no revenues and has incurred
a net loss as of December 31, 2017. These conditions raise
substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as
a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters
are described in Note 2 to the financial statements. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from
the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a
public accounting firm registered with the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required
to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with
the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the
PCAOB.
We
conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to
perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.
As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of
internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose
of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our
audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of
material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to
error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those
risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis,
evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as
well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial
statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

We have
served as the Company’s auditor since 2017.

Bitzumi, Inc.
December 31, 2017
Notes to the Financial
Statements
Note 1 – Organization and Operations
Bitzumi, Inc.
Bitzumi,
Inc., (“Bitzumi” or the
“Company”) was
incorporated on June 13, 2017, under the laws of the State of
Delaware. The Company anticipates that it will be a
vertically-integrated cryptocurrency exchange and
marketplace.
Reverse Stock Split
On January 31, 2018, the Company’s stockholders approved an
amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, to
effect a one-for-2 reverse split of the Company’s common
stock (the “Reverse Stock
Split”), which has not
yet occurred. Pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split, upon the
effective date each two shares of common stock owned by a
stockholder will be combined into one new share of common stock,
with any fractional shares that would otherwise be issuable as a
result of the Reverse Stock Split being rounded up to the nearest
whole share.
Note 2 – Going Concern Analysis
Going Concern Analysis
The
Company was incorporated on June 13, 2017 and through the date of
this report has generated no revenues. As of December 31, 2017, the
Company had a net loss of $129,332 and we expect to incur
additional net losses over the next several years as we continue to
expand our operations. Due to these conditions, management has
concluded that there is substantial doubt about the entity’s
ability to continue as a going concern.
On
January 10, 2018, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase
Agreement for the sale of 533,333 shares of Company common stock,
par value $0.0001 per share, and a warrant to purchase 2,133,333
shares of Company common stock for $1.875 per unit for an aggregate
purchase price of $1,000,000 (Note 8).
We have
evaluated the significance of these conditions in relation to our
ability to meet our obligations and believe that even with the
proceeds from the SPA and efficient control of expenses our current
cash balance will not be sufficient to meet our cash requirements
through May 10, 2019.
If
necessary, management believes that both related parties
(management and members of the Board of Directors of the Company)
and potential external sources of debt and/or equity financing may
be obtained based on management’s history of being able to
raise capital from both internal and external sources coupled with
current favorable market conditions. Therefore, the accompanying
financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern.
The
financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the
possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of
assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may
result from the outcome of these uncertainties. While the Company
believes in the viability of management’s strategy to
generate sufficient revenue, control costs and the ability to raise
additional funds if necessary, there can be no assurances to that
effect. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern
is dependent upon the ability to implement the business plan,
generate sufficient revenues and to control operating
expenses.
Note 3 – Significant and Critical Accounting Policies and
Practices
The
management of the Company is responsible for the selection and use
of appropriate accounting policies and their application. Critical
accounting policies and practices are those that are both most
important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial
condition and results and require management’s most
difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of
the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are
inherently uncertain. The Company’s significant and critical
accounting policies and practices are disclosed below as required
by generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis of Presentation
The
Company’s financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Use of Estimates and Assumptions and Critical Accounting Estimates
and Assumptions
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers investments with original maturities of three
months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any
cash equivalents as of December 31, 2017.
The
Company minimizes its credit risk associated with cash by
periodically evaluating the credit quality of its primary financial
institution. The balance at times may exceed federally insured
limits.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
For
purpose of this disclosure, 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 sale or liquidation. The carrying amount of the
Company’s short-term financial instruments approximates fair
value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these
instruments.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The
Company follows ASC 820-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification to measure the fair value of its financial instruments
and disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments. ASC
820-10 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S.
GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To
increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements
and related disclosures, ASC 820-10 establishes a fair value
hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used
to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels. The three (3)
levels of fair value hierarchy defined by ASC 820-10 are described
below:
|
Level
1
|
|
Quoted
market prices available in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities as of the reporting date.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Level
2
|
|
Pricing
inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level
1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the
reporting date.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Level
3
|
|
Pricing
inputs that are generally unobservable inputs and not corroborated
by market data.
|
Financial
assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined
using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar
techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input
is unobservable.
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. If the inputs used
to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more
than one level described above, the categorization is based on the
lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement of the instrument.
The
carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and
liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses and other current
assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their
fair values because of the short maturity of these
instruments.
|
Transactions
involving related parties typically cannot be presumed to be
carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite
conditions of competitive, free-market dealings may not
exist.
|
Revenue Recognition and Cost of Revenues
The
Company follows Paragraph 605-10-S99-1 of the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification for revenue recognition. The Company will
recognize revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The
Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when
all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of
an arrangement exists, (ii) the product has been shipped or the
services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the sales price
is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably
assured.
The
Company recognizes cost of revenues in the period in which the
revenues were earned.
Equity–Based Compensation
The Company recognizes compensation expense for all
equity–based payments granted to employees in accordance with
ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation.”
Under fair value recognition provisions, the Company recognizes
equity–based compensation net of an estimated forfeiture rate
and recognizes compensation cost only for those shares expected to
vest over the requisite service period of the
award.
Restricted
stock awards are granted at the discretion of the Company. These
awards are restricted as to the transfer of ownership and generally
vest over the requisite service periods, typically over a four-year
period (vesting on a straight–line basis). The fair value of
a stock award is equal to the fair market value of a share of
Company stock on the grant date.
The
fair value of option award is estimated on the date of grant using
the Black–Scholes option valuation model. The
Black–Scholes option valuation model requires the development
of assumptions that are input into the model. These assumptions are
the expected stock volatility, the risk–free interest rate,
the expected life of the option, the dividend yield on the
underlying stock and the expected forfeiture rate. Expected
volatility is calculated based on the historical volatility of the
Company’s common stock over the expected option life and
other appropriate factors. The expected option term is computed
using the “simplified” method as permitted under the
provisions of ASC 718-10-S99. The Company uses the simplified
method to calculate expected term of share options and similar
instruments as the Company does not have sufficient historical
exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate
expected term. Risk–free interest rates are calculated based
on continuously compounded risk–free rates for the
appropriate term. The dividend yield is assumed to be zero, as the
Company has never paid or declared any cash dividends on the common
stock of the Company and does not intend to pay dividends on the
common stock in the foreseeable future. The expected forfeiture
rate is estimated based on historical experience.
Determining
the appropriate fair value model and calculating the fair value of
equity–based payment awards requires the input of the
subjective assumptions described above. The assumptions used in
calculating the fair value of equity–based payment awards
represent management’s best estimates, which involve inherent
uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment.
As a result, if factors change and the Company uses different
assumptions, the equity–based compensation could be
materially different in the future. In addition, the Company is
required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and recognize
expense only for those shares expected to vest. If the actual
forfeiture rate is materially different from the Company’s
estimate, the equity–based compensation could be
significantly different from what the Company has recorded in the
current period.
The Company accounts for share–based payments granted to
non–employees in accordance with ASC 505-50,
“Equity Based Payments to
Non–Employees.”
The Company determines the fair value of the stock–based
payment as either the fair value of the consideration received or
the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more
reliably measurable. If the fair value of the equity instruments
issued is used, it is measured using the stock price and other
measurement assumptions as of the earlier of either (1) the date at
which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the
equity instruments is reached, or (2) the date at which the
counterparty’s performance is complete. The fair value of the
equity instruments is re-measured each reporting period over the
requisite service period.
Income Taxes
The
Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for
income taxes under FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial
statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and
their respective tax bases. Deferred income tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply
to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences
are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax
assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in
income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation
allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax
assets to the amount expected to be realized.
FASB ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement
attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement
of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For
those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely
than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities.
There were no unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2017. If
applicable, interest costs related to the unrecognized tax benefits
are required to be calculated and would be classified as
“Other expenses – Interest expense” in the
statement of operations. Penalties would be recognized as a
component of “General and administrative.” No amounts
were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties at December
31, 2017. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under
review that could result in significant payments, accruals or
material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to
income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since
inception.
The
Company may be subject to potential examination by federal, state,
and city taxing authorities in the areas of income taxes. These
potential examinations may include questioning the timing and
amount of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax
jurisdictions, and compliance with federal, state, and city tax
laws. The Company’s management does not expect that the total
amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the
next twelve months.
Earnings per Share
Earnings
per share (“EPS”) is the amount of earnings
attributable to each share of common stock. For convenience, the
term is used to refer to either earnings or loss per share. EPS is
computed pursuant to Section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification. Pursuant to ASC Paragraphs 260-10-45-10
through 260-10-45-16, basic EPS shall be computed by dividing
income available to common stockholders (the numerator) by the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the
denominator) during the period. Income available to common
stockholders shall be computed by deducting both the dividends
declared in the period on preferred stock (whether or not paid) and
the dividends accumulated for the period on cumulative preferred
stock (whether or not earned) from income from continuing
operations (if that amount appears in the income statement) and
also from net income. The computation of diluted EPS is similar to
the computation of basic EPS except that the denominator is
increased to include the number of additional common shares that
would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares
had been issued during the period to reflect the potential dilution
that could occur from common shares issuable through contingent
shares issuance arrangement, stock options or
warrants.
There
were no dilutive potential common shares issued during the
period.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In
April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers:
Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing (Topic
606) .” In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No.
2016-08, “Revenue from
Contracts with Customers: Principal versus Agent Considerations
(Reporting Revenue Gross Verses Net) (Topic 606).”
These amendments provide additional clarification and
implementation guidance on the previously issued ASU 2014-09,
“Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The amendments
in ASU 2016-10 provide clarifying guidance on materiality of
performance obligations; evaluating distinct performance
obligations; treatment of shipping and handling costs; and
determining whether an entity’s promise to grant a license
provides a customer with either a right to use an entity’s
intellectual property or a right to access an entity’s
intellectual property. The amendments in ASU 2016-08 clarify how an
entity should identify the specified good or service for the
principal versus agent evaluation and how it should apply the
control principle to certain types of arrangements. The adoption of
ASU 2016-10 and ASU 2016-08 is to coincide with an entity’s
adoption of ASU 2014-09, which the Company intends to adopt for
interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15,
2017. The Company does not expect the adoption will have a material
effect on its financial statements and disclosures.
In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic
606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical
Expedients,”
which narrowly amended the revenue recognition guidance regarding
collectability, noncash consideration, presentation of sales tax
and transition and is effective during the same period as ASU
2014-09. The Company does not expect the adoption will have a
material effect on its financial statements and
disclosures.
In
August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230):
Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash
Payments” (“ASU
2016-15”). ASU 2016-15 will make eight targeted
changes to how cash receipts and cash payments are presented and
classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The new
standard will require adoption on a retrospective basis unless it
is impracticable to apply, in which case it would be required to
apply the amendments prospectively as of the earliest date
practicable. The Company does not expect the adoption will have a
material effect on its financial statements and
disclosures.
In
October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity
Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory,” which
eliminates the exception that prohibits the recognition of current
and deferred income tax effects for intra-entity transfers of
assets other than inventory until the asset has been sold to an
outside party. The updated guidance is effective for annual periods
beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within
those fiscal years. Early adoption of the update is permitted. The
Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new
standard.
In
November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic
230),”
requiring that the statement of cash flows explain the change in
the total cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described
as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. This guidance is
effective for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods therein,
beginning after December 15, 2017 with early adoption permitted.
The provisions of this guidance are to be applied using a
retrospective approach which requires application of the guidance
for all periods presented. The Company does not expect the adoption
will have a material effect on its financial statements and
disclosures.
In May
2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic
718): Scope of Modification Accounting,” which
provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of
a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification
accounting in Topic 718. This standard is required to be adopted in
the first quarter of 2018. The Company does not expect the adoption
will have a material effect on its financial statements and
disclosures.
In July
2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, “Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing
Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) and Derivatives and Hedging
(Topic 815): I. Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with
Down Round Features; II. Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for
Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic
Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling
Interests with a Scope Exception.” Part I of this
update addresses the complexity of accounting for certain financial
instruments with down round features. Down round features are
features of certain equity-linked instruments (or embedded
features) that result in the strike price being reduced on the
basis of the pricing of future equity offerings. Current accounting
guidance creates cost and complexity for entities that issue
financial instruments (such as warrants and convertible
instruments) with down round features that require fair value
measurement of the entire instrument or conversion option. Part II
of this update addresses the difficulty of navigating Topic
480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, because of the
existence of extensive pending content in the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification. This pending content is the result of the
indefinite deferral of accounting requirements about mandatorily
redeemable financial instruments of certain nonpublic entities and
certain mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interests. The
amendments in Part II of this update do not have an accounting
effect. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods
within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018.
Management
does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective
accounting pronouncements, when adopted, will have a material
effect on the accompanying financial statements.

$.0001 per share, of the Company through (i) the grant of
non-qualified options (the “Options”), (ii) Common Stock,
(iii) Restricted Stock, (iv) Restricted Stock Units, to directors,
consultants, and employees.
Each

price, which shall be determined by the Board at the time of grant,
shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value (defined as
the closing price on the final trading day immediately prior to the
grant on the principal exchange or quotation system on which the
common stock is listed or quoted, as applicable, and in the absence
of such market, determined in good faith by the board) of the
common stock of the Company, provided that if the recipient of the
Option owns more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined
voting power of the Company, the exercise price shall be at least
110% of the Fair Market Value.
The
Plan shall be administered by the Board.
There
were no options granted during the period through the date of this
Special Financial Report.

Corporation (“FDIC”).

monthly consulting fee of $2,000, as well as a grant of 250,000
stock options of the Company pursuant to the 2017 Equity
Compensation Plan. As of the date of this report, the options have
yet to be granted.
Note 8 – Income Tax Provision
Deferred Tax Assets
On
December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the
“Tax Reform
Bill”) was signed into law. Prior to the enactment of
the Tax Reform Bill, the Company measured its deferred tax assets
at the federal rate of 34%. The Tax Reform Bill reduced the federal
tax rate to 21%, resulting in the re-measurement of the deferred
tax asset as of December 31, 2017. Beginning January 1, 2018, the
lower tax rate of 21% will be used to calculate the amount of any
federal income tax due on taxable income earned during
2018.
At
December 31, 2017, the Company has available for U.S. federal
income tax purposes a net operating loss (“NOL”) carry-forwards of
approximately $129,000 that may be used to offset future taxable
income through the fiscal year ending December 31, 2037. If not
used, these NOLs may be subject to limitation under Internal
Revenue Code Section 382 should there be a greater than 50%
ownership change as determined under the regulations. The Company
plans on undertaking a detailed analysis of any historical and/or
current Section 382 ownership changes that may limit the
utilization of the net operating loss carryovers. No tax benefit
has been reported with respect to these net operating loss
carry-forwards in the accompanying financial statements since the
Company believes that the realization of its net deferred tax asset
of approximately $27,000 was not considered more likely than not
and accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the net loss
carry-forwards are fully offset by a valuation allowance of
$27,000.
Deferred
tax assets consist primarily of the tax effect of NOL
carry-forwards. The Company has provided a full valuation allowance
on the deferred tax assets because of the uncertainty regarding its
realizability. In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets,
management considers whether it is more likely than not that some
portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The
ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon
future generation for taxable income during the periods in which
temporary differences representing net future deductible amounts
become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of
deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax
planning strategies in making this assessment. After consideration
of all the information available, Management believes that
significant uncertainty exists with respect to future realization
of the deferred tax assets and has therefore established a full
valuation allowance. The valuation allowance increased by
approximately $27,000 for the period from June 13, 2017 (inception)
through December 31, 2017.
The
Company evaluated the provisions of ASC 740 related to the
accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an
enterprise’s financial statements. ASC 740 prescribes a
comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, present,
and disclose uncertain positions that the Company has taken or
expects to take in its tax return. For those benefits to be
recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be
sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. Differences
between tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return
and the net benefit recognized and measured pursuant to the
interpretation are referred to as “unrecognized
benefits.” A liability is recognized (or amount of net
operating loss carry forward or amount of tax refundable is
reduced) for unrecognized tax benefit because it represents an
enterprise’s potential future obligation to the taxing
authority for a tax position that was not recognized as a result of
applying the provisions of ASC 740.
If
applicable, interest costs related to the unrecognized tax benefits
are required to be calculated and would be classified as
“Other expenses – Interest expense” in the
statement of operations. Penalties would be recognized as a
component of “General and administrative.”
No
interest or penalties on unpaid tax were recorded for the period
from June 13, 2017 (inception) through December 31, 2017. As of
December 31, 2017, no liability for unrecognized tax benefits was
required to be reported. The Company does not expect any
significant changes in its unrecognized tax benefits in the next
year.
