NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS, PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN

 

The unaudited condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The condensed financial statements and notes are presented as permitted on Form 10-Q and do not contain certain information included in the Company’s annual statements and notes. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the September 30, 2019 Form 10-K filed with the SEC, including the audited financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto. While management believes the procedures followed in preparing these condensed financial statements are reasonable, the accuracy of the amounts is in some respects dependent upon the facts that will exist, and procedures that will be accomplished by the Company later in the year.

 

These unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

 

Organization

 

Alternative Investment Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated in Nevada on March 26, 2007 under the name of China Digital Ventures Corporation. The principal business of the Company was its web-based telecom and IPTV businesses, both of which were disposed of during the year ended September 30, 2010. As of the date hereof, the Company has no operations.

 

On September 18, 2015, the Company filed an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation in the State of Nevada to change its name to Alternative Investment Corporation.

 

The Company continues to evaluate potential acquisitions and/or merger/investment opportunities. Most recently the Company evaluated two sectors; real estate and biotechnology whereby no developments were materialized. Management is currently evaluating other alternative options with special focus on the precious metals sector. Management’s top priority or objective is to continue evaluating opportunities to build shareholder’s value. 

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the SEC.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in The United States of America and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred net losses of $85,169 and $375,478 for the three months ended December 31, 2019 and year ended September 30, 2019, respectively. At December 31, 2019, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $2,288,712 and stockholders’ deficit of $1,068,053. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.  The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to develop and sustain a viable business model capable of generating sufficient revenues to support ongoing operations and overhead and to continue to raise investment capital through the sale of Company stock. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.  Management believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plans provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.  No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts.

 

F-5 

 

 

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Significant estimates in the accompanying financial statements include the valuation of share-based payments and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 825 "Financial Instruments" codified Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 107, Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments, requires that the Company disclose estimated fair values of financial instruments. Unless otherwise indicated, the fair values of all reported assets and liabilities, which represent financial instruments, none of which are held for trading purposes, approximate the carrying values of such amounts. The Company did not have any financial instruments at December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019.

 

Accounts payable

 

The Company accounts for expenses on the accrual basis of accounting under US GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) where expenses are recorded when incurred.  Invoices for expense are recorded in the period in which they are incurred and reflected in accounts payable on the balance sheet of the Company.  Often expenses should be accounted for prior to an invoice being received. These amounts are reflected in accrued expense in the Company’s financial statements.  As of December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019, the Company has accrued payables of $204,782 and $175,341, respectively.

 

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

The Company computes income (loss) per share in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share", which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.

 

Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential shares of common stock outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares for periods in which the Company incurs losses as their effect is anti-dilutive.  As of December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019, respectively, there were no common share equivalents outstanding which would be deemed as dilutive.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on the net loss or cash flows of the Company.

NOTE 3 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting” which addresses accounting for issuance of all share-based payments on the same accounting model. Previously, accounting for share-based payments to employees was covered by ASC Topic 718 while accounting for such payments to non-employees was covered by ASC Subtopic 505-50. As it considered recently issued updates to ASC 718, the FASB, as part of its simplification initiatives, decided to replace ASC Subtopic 505-50 with Topic 718 as the guidance for non-employee share-based awards. Under this new guidance, both sets of awards, for employees and non-employees, will essentially follow the same model, with small variations related to determining the term assumption when valuing a non-employee award as well as a different expense attribution model for non-employee awards as opposed to employee awards. The ASU is effective for public business entities beginning in 2019 calendar years and one year later for non-public business entities. The Company is assessing the impact, if any, of implementing this guidance on its financial position and results of operations.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases." ASU 2016-02 significantly changes the accounting for leases by requiring lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for leases greater than 12 months on their balance sheet. The lessor model stays substantially the same; however, there were modifications to conform lessor accounting with the lessee model, eliminate real estate specific guidance, further define certain lease and non-lease components, and change the definition of initial direct costs of leases requiring significantly more leasing related costs to be expensed upfront. ASU 2016-02 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, and we are currently assessing the impact this standard will have on the Company's financial statements.  The Company is currently party to a long-term lease that is being considered relative to the adoption of this standard (See NOTE 4).

 

The Company has evaluated all other new ASU's issued by FASB and has concluded that these updates do not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements as of December 31, 2019.

 

NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTIES

 

As of December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019, $231,973, was due to Canton. This is an unsecured loan, non-interest bearing and there is no repayment date. Interest has been calculated at an imputed interest rate of 3% and reflected as interest expense and as an increase to additional paid in capital in the amount of $1,778 and $7,032 for the three months ended December 31, 2019 and year ended September 30, 2019, respectively.  On April 1, 2018, Canton elected to convert $80,000 of the amount due into 94,118 common restricted shares of the Company ($0.85 per share).

  

On February 2, 2016, the Company entered into an expense sharing agreement with Fingi Inc (“Fingi”). Fingi is company for which Canton, our largest shareholder, may be deemed a controlling entity. Under the expense sharing agreement, the Company shares the rent and utility expenses incurred in connection with occupancy of office space that is being leased by Fingi Inc. During the year ended September 30, 2019, amount due for rent was $6,377 per month. For the three month ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 rent and utilities expenses amounted to $19,132 and $18,548, respectively.

  

As of December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019, the Company had a liability due to its former Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer, Daniel Otazo in the amount of $2,000.  The amount was reflected in accounts payable on the Company’s financial statements. Amounts are due under a compensation for services provided agreement.  Mr. Otazo resigned from the Company in all official capacities on November 30, 2017.  As of December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019, the Company had a liability due to its current Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer, Antonio Treminio, in the amount of $124,051 and $109,051, respectively.

 

As of September 30, 2019, Alternative Strategy Partners Pte. Ltd. (“ASP”) was considered a related party. As a shareholder, ASP owns 20.4% of the outstanding stock of the Company as well as $420,259 of current debt. Additionally, ASP has committed to lend an additional $629,741 to the Company under a line of credit agreement (SEE NOTE 5).

 

Related party transactions are not necessarily indicative of an arm’s length transaction or comparable to a transaction that had been entered into with independent parties.

 

F-7 

 

 

NOTE 5 – LINE OF CREDIT – RELATED PARTY

 

During the year ended September 30, 2019, ASP loaned the Company $259,916 under separate one-year 8% notes. Additionally, on March 8, 2019, ASP wired $74,768 to the primary lessor of the office space where the Company maintains its corporate office. Since the Company pays 50% of the rent under an expense sharing agreement, the amount of $37,384 was recorded as a loan from ASP on the Company’s balance sheet as loans payable. On August 8, 2019, the Company entered into a $1,000,000 Line of Credit agreement with ASP. The Line of Credit has an expiration date of December 31, 2024. As a result of this agreement, monthly rental payments paid by ASP in the amount of $130,339, previously recorded as accounts payable was transferred to ASP Loan payable and interest was applied retroactively. Under this agreement, all former advances were applied toward the overall cap of the line of credit. As of September 30, the Company had $629,741 available under the agreement. As of December 31, 2019, collective accrued interest on the line of credit was $30,351.

 

As of December 31, 2019, all advances are covered by notes payable except the $143,763 covered by the blanket agreement for monthly rental payments paid by ASP and previously recorded as accounts payable. This amount has a due date co-terminus with the overall agreement of December 31, 2024. The balance of the non-current portion of the line of credit at December 31, 2019 was $143,763.

 

NOTE 6 – NOTES PAYABLE - RELATED PARTY

 

On February 28, 2018, the noteholder, JIFM LLC., entered into a settlement agreement with Basil and Barnes Holding LLC.  Under terms of the settlement all outstanding to Fess Group Holdings LLC notes were transferred to Canton Investments, Ltd.

Certain statements made in this Form 10-Q are "forward-looking statements" (within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) regarding the plans and objectives of management for future operations. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. The Company's plans and objectives are based, in part, on assumptions involving the continued expansion of business. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Although the Company believes its assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove to be inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance the forward-looking statements included in this report will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved.

 

The forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-Q and referred to elsewhere are related to future events or our strategies or future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may," "should," "believe," "anticipate," "future," "potential," "estimate," "encourage," "opportunity," "growth," "leader," "expect," "intend," "plan," "expand," "focus," "through," "strategy," "provide," "offer," "allow," commitment," "implement," "result," "increase," "establish," "perform," "make," "continue," "can," "ongoing," "include" or the negative of such terms or comparable terminology. All forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-Q are based on information available to us as of the filing date of this report, and the Company assumes no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements, except as required by law. Our actual results could differ materially from the forward-looking statements.

 

Important factors that might cause our actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements are contained in the “Risk Factors” section of and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019 and in our subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission

 

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations describes the principal factors affecting the results of operations, liquidity and capital resources of the Company and critical accounting estimates.

Results of Operations

 

For the Three Months Ended December 31, 2019 and 2018

 

Revenues

 

The Company had no revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

For the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 total General and Administrative Expenses were $67,909 and $54,949 resulting in a increase of $12,960. The increase in General and Administrative Expenses is primarily a result of an increase in payroll expense of $18,642 offset by lower consulting fees of $1,500 and lower bad debt expense of $2,979.

 

Professional fees

 

For the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 total professional fees were unchanged at $3,500 each period.

 

 Other income (expense)

 

For the three months ended December 31, 2019 total other expense was $13,760 compared to $2,198 for the same period in the prior year. The higher expense was due to the higher interest cost of $8,583 related to increased debt as well as reduction of interest income of $2,979.

 

Net loss

 

Our net loss to shareholders for the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 was $85,169 and $60,647, respectively.  The increase in net loss was due to higher payroll and interest expense.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Overview

 

As of December 31, 2019, the Company had $864 of cash compared to $3,218 at September 30, 2019 and a deficit in working capital of $924,290 and $847,276, respectively. Historically, our operating expenses have been funded and paid by ASP, current through a line of credit arrangement.

 

We do not have sufficient resources to effectuate our business plan. We expect to incur a minimum of $400,000 in expenses and acquisitions during the next twelve months of operations.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources during the Three Months Ended December 31, 2019 compared the Three Months ended December 31, 2018

 

We used cash in operating activities of $42,66 and $11,575 for the three months ended December 31, 2019, and 2018, respectively. The elements of cash flow used in operations for the three months ended December 31, 2019 included a net loss of $85,169, increase in largely by an increase in accounts payable of $29,441 and an increase in interest payable of $12,610. The elements of cash flow used in operations for the three months ended December 31, 2018 included a net loss of $60,647, decrease in largely by an increase in accounts payable of $39,533.

 

 The Company neither received or used cash from investing activities for the three months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

 

Cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended December 31, 2019 was $35,535 proceeds from a third-party loan in addition to $6,377 transferred from Accounts payable to the line of credit. For the three months ended December 31, 2018 the company received $7,000 proceeds for ASP in the form of a note payable which subsequently organized under the Company’s line of credit.

We will have to raise funds to pay for our expenses. We may have to borrow money from shareholders or issue debt or equity or enter into a strategic arrangement with a third party. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to us. We currently only have one small arrangements with JIFM LLC and Alternative Strategy Partners as way to obtain any operating capital.  We have no other arrangements or understandings to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources. Since we have no other arrangements or plans currently in effect, our inability to raise funds for our operations will have a severe negative impact on our ability to remain a viable company.

 

Going Concern

 

Due to the uncertainty of our ability to meet our current operating and capital expenses, our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph in their report on the audited financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2019 regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements contain additional note disclosures describing the circumstances that lead to this disclosure by our independent auditors.

 

Our unaudited financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with any certainty at this time and raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern. Our unaudited financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amount and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

There is no assurance that our operations will be profitable. Our continued existence and plans for future growth depend on our ability to obtain the additional capital necessary to operate either through the generation of revenue or the issuance of additional debt or equity.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of December 31, 2019, the Company had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out by the Company's management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act")) as of December 31, 2019.
