Words such as, but not limited to, “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “targets,” “likely,” “aim,” “will,” “would,” “could,” and similar expressions or phrases identify forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operation, business strategy and financial needs. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about:


Ÿ

our lack of significant revenues and history of losses,

Ÿ

the impact of government regulation on our business,

Ÿ

our ability to effectively compete,

You should read thoroughly this report and the documents that we refer to herein with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from and/or worse than what we expect.  We qualify all our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements including those made in this report, in Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Other sections of this report include additional factors which could adversely impact our business and financial performance.  New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for our management to predict all risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Except for our ongoing obligations to disclose material information under the Federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statements, to report events or to report the occurrence of unanticipated events.

ALPHA INVESTMENT INC

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS


Alpha Investment Inc, formerly GoGo Baby, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on February 22, 2013 under the laws of the State of Delaware to develop, create, manufacture and market, toys for small children which would be designed to attach to car seats and amuse and entertain children during a drive, without distracting the attention of the driver.  The Company, however, encountered significant constraints in raising sufficient capital to fully implement its business plan.


On March 17, 2017, Omega Commercial Finance Corp. (“Omega”) purchased all 35,550,000 outstanding “restricted” shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Control Share Sale”) from Malcolm Hargrave (35,000,000 shares), DTH International Corporation (500,000 shares) and Lisa Foster (50,000 shares) for aggregate consideration of $295,000.  The Control Share Sale was consummated in a private transaction pursuant to a common stock purchase agreement entered between Omega and Mr. Hargrave, acting individually and on behalf of the other selling stockholders.  Upon completion of the Control Share Sale, a “Change in Control” of the Company took place and the Company became a subsidiary of Omega.  The Company did not elect to apply push-down accounting.  In connection therewith, Mr. Hargrave resigned as the Company’s sole director and officer and Omega, as the new majority stockholder of the Company, elected Timothy R. Fussell, Ph.D. as President, Chairman of the Board and a director and Todd C. Buxton, Omega’s Chief Executive Officer, as Chief Executive Officer, Vice Chairman of the Board and a director.


In addition to the foregoing, new management elected to shift the focus of the Company’s business to real estate and other commercial lending, which they believed offered better opportunities for shareholder growth.  In connection therewith, on March 30, 2017, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State changing its name from “Gogo Baby, Inc.” to “Alpha Investment Inc.” to better reflect the new business focus.   The name change and a corresponding change in the Company’s OTC markets trading symbol from GGBY to ALPC received approval from FINRA and became effective as of April 19, 2017.


NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements are prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which we considered as necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future periods or the full year.


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 certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods presented.  The Company is required to make judgments and estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.  The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the useful life and recoverability of long-lived assets, deferred income tax asset valuations and loss contingences.  The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Although, we believe our judgments and estimates are appropriate, actual future results may be different; if different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, the results could be materially different from our reported results.


Cash and Cash Equivalents


Cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of acquisition. As of March 31, 2018, the Company had no cash equivalents.


Restricted Cash Held in Escrow


The Company has $2,500,000 of restricted cash held in escrow from the sale of commons stock to an investor that has the right to require the Company to repurchase the common stock for $2,500,000 through May 15, 2018.




7




Loans Receivable, net


The Company records its investments in loans receivable at cost less unamortized costs of issuance and deferred origination fees.  Origination fees collected at the time of investment are recorded against the loans receivable and amortized into net interest income over the lives of the related loans.  Issuance costs incurred are capitalized along with the initial investment and amortized against net interest income over the lives of the related loans.


When a loan receivable is placed on non-accrual status, the related interest receivable is reversed against interest income of the current period. If a non-accrual loan is returned to accrual status, the accrued interest existing at the date the residential loan is placed on non-accrual status and interest during the non-accrual period are recorded as interest income as of the date the loan no longer meets the non-accrual criteria.  As of March 31, 2018, since all loans receivable are considered performing according to their payment terms, no accounts receivable aging schedule or credit quality indicators are necessary.


Allowance for Loan Losses


The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses on its investments in real estate loans for estimated credit impairment.  Management’s estimate of losses is based on a number of factors including the types and dollar amounts of loans in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, prevailing economic conditions and the underlying collateral securing the loan.  Additions to the allowance are provided through a charge to earnings and are based on an assessment of certain factors, which may indicate estimated losses on the loans.  Actual losses on loans are recorded first as a reduction to the allowance for loan losses.  Generally, subsequent recoveries of amounts previously charged off are recognized as income.


Estimating allowances for loan losses requires significant judgment about the underlying collateral, including liquidation value, condition of the collateral, competency and cooperation of the related borrower and specific legal issues that affect loan collections or taking possession of the property on an individual loan receivable basis.  Management determined that no allowance for loan losses was necessary as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017.


Property and Equipment


Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Equipment and fixtures will be depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated asset lives, 5 years.  


Income Taxes


The Company accounts for its income taxes in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 740, "Income Taxes".  Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax balances.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantially enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of enactment or substantive enactment.


Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes


The Company applies the provisions of ASC Topic 740-10-25, Income Taxes – Overall – Recognition (“ASC Topic 740-10-25”) with respect to the accounting for uncertainty of income tax positions. ASC Topic 740-10-25 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740-10-25 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As December 31, 2017, tax years since 2013 remain open for IRS audit. The Company has received no notice of audit from the Internal Revenue Service for any of the open tax years.


Revenue Recognition and Investment Income


Origination fees collected at the time of investment are recorded against the loans receivable and amortized into net interest income over the lives of the related loans.  Issuance costs incurred are capitalized along with the initial investment and amortized against net interest income over the lives of the related loans. The Company records interest income in accordance with ASC subtopic 835-30 "Imputation of Interest", using the effective interest method.




8



When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, the related interest receivable is reversed against interest income of the current period. If a non-accrual loan is returned to accrual status, the accrued interest existing at the date the residential loan is placed on non-accrual status and interest during the non-accrual period are recorded as interest income as of the date the loan no longer meets the non-accrual criteria.


The Company suspends recognizing interest income when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all payments according to the contractual terms of the underlying agreements. Management considers all information available in assessing collectability. Collectability is measured on a receivable-by-receivable basis by either the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the effective rate, the observable market price for the receivable or the fair value of the collateral if the receivable is collateral dependent. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous receivables, such as pre-settlement funding transactions, are collectively assessed for collectability. A receivable is charged off when in the Company's judgment, the receivable or portion of the receivable is considered uncollectible.


Payments received on past due receivables and finance receivables the Company has suspended recognizing interest income on are applied first to principal and then to accrued interest. Interest income on past due receivables and finance receivables, if received, is recorded using the cash basis method of accounting. Additionally, the Company generally does not resume recognition of interest income once it has been suspended.


Fair Value


The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash, accounts payable and notes payable approximate their estimated fair market value based on the short-term maturity of this instrument. The carrying value of the Company’s loans receivable approximate fair value because their terms approximate market rates.


Net Loss Per Share


Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year.  Dilutive loss per share reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the losses of the Company.  Common stock warrants to purchase 350,000 shares of common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2018, because their impact was anti-dilutive.  There were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2017.


Concentration of Credit Risk


Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and loans receivable. The Company maintains its cash in bank and financial institution deposits that at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts through December 31, 2017. 100% of the Company’s loans receivables are with related parties.


Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements


Recent accounting pronouncements that the Company has adopted or that will be required to adopt in the future are summarized below.


On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2014-09 – Revenue From Contracts with Customers, which did not have a significant impact on its results of operations.

The Company's revenue is mainly derived from interest income on our investments in our loan receivable portfolio, which are not impacted by this standard.


In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825- 10), Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The provisions of the update require equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. However, an entity may choose to measure equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values at cost minus impairment. The update also simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments without readily determinable fair values by requiring a qualitative assessment to identify impairment. It also eliminates the requirement to disclose the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost for entities that are not public business entities, and eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet. ASU No. 2016-01 requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. It also requires an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. The update requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by category and form on the balance sheet or the accompanying notes to the financial statements. In addition, the update clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax assets. For an emerging growth company, the amendments in the update



9



are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.


In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), Conforming Amendments Related to Leases. This ASU amends the codification regarding leases in order to increase transparency and comparability. The ASU requires companies to recognize lease assets and liabilities on the statement of condition and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. A lessee would recognize a liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the leased asset for the lease term. For an emerging growth company, the amendments in the update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.


In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The amendments introduce an impairment model that is based on expected credit losses (“ECL”), rather than incurred losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments (ex. loans and held to maturity securities), including certain off-balance sheet financial instruments (ex. commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit that are not unconditionally cancellable). The ECL should consider historical information, current information, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of prepayments, over the contractual term. An entity must use judgment in determining the relevant information and estimation methods that are appropriate in its circumstances. Financial instruments with similar risk characteristics may be grouped together when estimating the ECL. The ASU also amends the current available for sale security impairment model for debt securities whereby credit losses relating to available for sale debt securities should be recorded through an allowance for credit losses. For an emerging growth company, the amendments in the update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The amendments will be applied through a modified retrospective approach, resulting in a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. The Company is currently planning for the implementation of this accounting standard. It is too early to assess the impact this guidance will have on the Company’s financial statements.


In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. The amendments in this ASU clarify the proper classification for certain cash receipts and cash payments, including clarification on debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims, and proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, including bank-owned life insurance policies, among others. For an emerging growth company, the amendments in the update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently assessing the amendment and does not anticipate it will have a material impact on the Company’s Financial Statements.


The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 4 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES


Litigation


The Company is not presently involved in any litigation.


NOTE 5 – GOING CONCERN


Future issuances of the Company’s equity or debt securities will be required in order for the Company to continue to finance its operations and continue as a going concern. The Company’s present revenues are insufficient to meet operating expenses. The financial statements of the Company have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $1,629,940 as of March 31, 2018 and requires capital for its contemplated operational and marketing activities to take place. The Company's ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of common stock is unknown. Securing additional financing, the successful development of the Company's contemplated plan of operations, and its transition, ultimately, to the attainment of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.

NOTE 7 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY


Incentive Plan


The Company’s Incentive Plan provides for equity incentives to be granted to its employees, executive officers or directors or to key advisers or consultants.  Equity incentives may be in the form of stock options with an exercise price not less than the fair market value of the underlying Shares as determined pursuant to the Incentive Plan, restricted stock awards, other stock-based awards, or any combination of the foregoing.  The Incentive Plan is administered by the board of directors.  5,000,000 Shares are reserved for issuance pursuant to the exercise of awards under the Incentive Plan.  The number of shares so reserved automatically adjusts upward on January 1 of each year, so that the number of shares covered by the Incentive Plan is equal to 15% of our issued and outstanding common stock. As of March 31, 2018, there are 1,375,000 shares available for issuance under the plan and no options outstanding.


Common Stock


On September 20, 2017, 166,667 shares of common stock were issued at a value of $15.00 per share to one company in exchange for cash of $2,500,000.  Pursuant to the subscription agreement the investor had the right to require the Company to repurchase the shares for $2.5 million at any time through December 2017.  Accordingly, the amounts received are presented as a temporary equity as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017.  In December 2017, the Company negotiated and amended its agreement with the investor to extend this right through May 15, 2018. As part of this extension, the investor was granted warrants to purchase 170,000 shares of common stock for an exercise price of $15.00 per share over a five-year term. Because the shares are classified as a temporary equity, and the investors rights to require repurchase of the shares initially expired in 2017 the Company recorded the fair value of these warrants were recorded as a discount against the proceeds to be amortized as interest expense through February 2018, the initial extension date.   In March 2018, the Company entered into a third amendment to the subscription agreement, extending the option period to May 15, 2018. The option was further extended in May 2018.  See Note 8. As consideration for the extension, the Company’s parent company, Omega Commercial Finance Corporation, agreed to issue to the investor, 32,500 shares of its Series Z preferred stock, and the Company agreed to reimburse the investor for $21,894 of legal fees incurred related to the extension.  The Company estimated the fair value of the Series Z preferred stock based on recent sales for cash, and recorded an additional discount of $103,144, including the accrued legal fees, against the common stock to be amortized into interest expense through the extended expiration of the option in May 2018.   During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company amortized $929,108 of the discounts.  The cash, as of March 31, 2018, is held in an escrow account and the shares are carried at $2,401,245, net of unamortized discount of $98,755.


Preferred Stock


In November 2017, the Company’s board of directors designated 100,000 authorized shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A”). Each share of Series A has a par value of $15.00 and have no voting or dividend rights.  Upon liquidation, dissolution or wining up, the holders of Series A shares are entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company, if any, ratably with the common stock holders.  Each share of Series A is convertible within one year of issuance into two shares of common stock of the Company.  At any time after 180 days of issuance, the Company has the right, but not the obligation, to redeem all, but not less than all, of the outstanding Series A shares by paying cash, common stock, or a a combination of both an amount equal to the par value of the Series A shares. On the one-year anniversary of issuance, the Company has an obligation to redeem the Series A shares for an amount equal to the par value of the Series A shares.  


During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company sold 1,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock for cash proceeds of $15,000.  Because of the redemption obligation after one year, absent an election by the holders to convert, the Company has reflected the redemption amount as temporary equity in the accompanying balance sheet.


Capital Contributions


During the three months ended March 31, 2018, Omega Commercial Finance Corp made a cash contribution to the company of $5,000. This was classified as capital contribution and recorded in additional paid-in capital.


Common Stock Warrants


As of March 31, 2018, there are warrants outstanding to purchase 520,000 shares for an exercise price of $15.00 over five years.

NOTE 8 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS


In May 2018, the Company and the holder of 1,666,667 shares of common stock subject to an option granted to the holder through May 15, 2018, to have the Company repurchase such shares for $2.5 million as described in Note 7 above, agreed to extend the expiration of such option until June 29, 2018, for no additional consideration.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of our management on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and certain other factors that may affect our future results.  The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto included in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”  In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions.  See “Forward-Looking Statements.”  Our results and the timing of selected events may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors.


We qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act. As a result, we are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements. For so long as we are an emerging growth company, we will not be required to:


have an auditor report on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;


comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditors report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (i.e., an auditor discussion and analysis);


submit certain executive compensation matters to shareholder advisory votes, such as say-on-pay and say-on-frequency; and


disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEOs compensation to median employee compensation.


In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Our financial statements may therefore not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.


We will remain an “emerging growth company” for up to five years, or until the earliest of (a) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our total annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion; (b) the date that we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of our ordinary shares that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter; or (c) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three year period.


Results of Operations


Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 as compared to three months ended March 31, 2017


For the three months ended March 31, 2018, we generated approximately $8,000 in net investment income, resulting from the amortization of loan origination fees received in the form of a notes receivable in the aggregate amount of $430,000, offset by the amortization of loan costs incurred.  All of the investment income was generated from the Company’s lending operations following completion of the Control Share Sale.  Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 is presented net of $420,000 in service costs, primarily loan broker fees which are being amortized over the life of the related loans.  We incurred $53,962 in operating expenses during the 2018 period, compared to $7,732 in 2017, reflecting our increased level of operations.  Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018, was $929,108 resulting from the amortization of the discount on redeemable common stock.

Liquidity and Capital Resources


During the three months ended March 31, 2018, Omega, the principal stockholder of the Company, made an additional capital contribution to the Company of $5,000, and the Company received proceeds of $15,000 from the sale of preferred stock.


Although we have raised additional funds through various private offerings of our securities, we believe that we will require substantial additional capital to fund our planned operations.  There can be no assurance given that we will be able to secure such funding on commercially reasonable terms, without which, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be substantially harmed.


Critical Accounting Policies


Use of Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures 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 included deferred revenue, costs incurred related to deferred revenue, the useful lives of property and equipment and the useful lives of intangible assets.


Loans Receivable, net


The Company records its investments in loans receivable at cost less unamortized costs of issuance and deferred origination fees.  Origination fees collected at the time of investment are recorded against the loans receivable and amortized into net interest income over the lives of the related loans.  Issuance costs incurred are capitalized along with the initial investment and amortized against net interest income over the lives of the related loans.


Income Taxes


The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, as clarified by ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.  Under this method, deferred income taxes are determined based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities given the provisions of enacted tax laws.  Deferred income tax provisions and benefits are based on changes to the assets or liabilities from year to year.  In providing for deferred taxes, the Company considers tax regulations of the jurisdictions in which the Company operates, estimates of future taxable income, and available tax planning strategies.  If tax regulations, operating results or the ability to implement tax-planning strategies vary, adjustments to the carrying value of deferred tax assets and liabilities may be required.  Valuation allowances are recorded related to deferred tax assets based on the “more likely than not” criteria of ASC 740.


ASC 740-10 requires that the Company recognize the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit.  For tax positions meeting the “more-likely-than-not” threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


There are no 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.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to include disclosure under this item.


ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures


The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer (principal executive, financial and accounting officer) has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. The term “disclosure controls and procedures”, as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits 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 by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based upon the evaluation of the disclosure controls and procedures at the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer (principal executive, financial and accounting officer) concluded that that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level in that:


·

We do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and procedures on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.

·

We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transaction s, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Our president evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.


Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting


During the quarter ended March 31, 2018, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that ave materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.


PART II


ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


We are currently not a party to any material legal or administrative proceedings and are not aware of any pending or threatened material legal or administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business.  We may from time to time become a party to various legal or administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business.


ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS


Risk factors describing the major risks to our business can be found under Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. There has been no material change in our risk factors from those previously discussed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K.


ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS


During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company sold 1,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock for, $15,000 or $15.00 per share to a single investor in a private transaction.  The Series A Preferred Stock does not have dividend or voting rights, but is mandatorily redeemable by the Company (unless converted as set forth below) on the first anniversary of issuance at a redemption price of $15.00 per share.  The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock may, at the option of the holder, be converted at any time prior to redemption into two shares of the Company’s common stock (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends and similar recapitalization transactions).


The foregoing securities were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Regulation D thereunder.
