NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2015  

 

1. Nature of Business

  

TRIG Acquisition 1, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 31, 2009 as GSP-1, Inc. The Company was formed as a vehicle to pursue a business combination. On July 6, 2011, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation to change its name from “GSP-1, Inc.” to “TRIG Acquisition 1, Inc.” 

 

On October 18, 2012, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) by and among (i) the Company, (ii) Grilled Cheese, Inc., a California corporation, (“Grilled Cheese”), (iii) GCT, Inc., a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“GCT Sub”); (iv) David Danhi, the majority shareholder of Grilled Cheese (“Majority Shareholder”) and (v) Michelle Grant, the minority shareholder of Grilled Cheese (“Minority Shareholder”, together with the Majority Shareholder, the “Grilled Cheese Shareholders”). Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement: (1) the Majority Shareholder transferred to GCT Sub all of the shares of Grilled Cheese held by such shareholder in exchange for the issuance of 4,275,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”); and (2) the Minority Shareholder transferred all of the shares of Grilled Cheese held by the Minority Shareholder in exchange for $500,000 and 845,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Share Exchange Transaction”).

  

The Share Exchange Transaction has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition of the Company, by Grilled Cheese but in substance as a capital transaction, rather than a business combination since the Company had nominal operations and assets prior to and as of the closing of the Share Exchange Transaction. The former stockholders of Grilled Cheese represent a significant constituency of the Company’s voting power immediately following the Share Exchange Transaction and Grilled Cheese’s management assumed operational, financial and governance control. The transaction is deemed a reverse recapitalization and the accounting is similar to that resulting from a reverse acquisition. For accounting purposes, Grilled Cheese is treated as the surviving entity and accounting acquirer in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations although the Company was the legal acquirer. Accordingly, the Company’s historical financial statements are those of Grilled Cheese. The accumulated losses of Grilled Cheese were carried forward after the completion of the Share Exchange Transaction.

  

All reference to Common Stock and per share amounts have been restated to effect the Share Exchange Transaction which occurred on October 18, 2012.

  

On February 19, 2013, following the Share Exchange Transaction, the Company changed its corporate name from “TRIG Acquisition 1, Inc.” to “The Grilled Cheese Truck, Inc.”

  

The Company is a food truck operation that sells various types of gourmet grilled cheese and other comfort foods in the Southern California and Phoenix, Arizona areas. The Company’s food trucks currently make multiple stops per week at prearranged locations. The food preparation occurs at a kitchen which supports streamlined operations within the truck by limiting assembly and grilling, allowing the truck to achieve maximum revenues per hour by delivering our food items including melts, tots, soups and sides efficiently to customers. The Company’s business model includes the use of social media and location booking to attract customers to the truck’s various locations.

 

In May 2015, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Grilled Cheese Military, Inc. (“Military Subsidiary”), a Nevada corporation. The purpose of the Military Subsidiary is the performance of Company operations on military bases. In May 2015, the Company entered into a subscription agreement with the Military Subsidiary pursuant to which the Company purchased 100 shares of common stock, par value of $0.001, of the Military Subsidiary for $1.00 per share for an aggregate total of $100. The Company consolidates the Military Subsidiary into the condensed consolidated financial statements.

2. Going Concern and Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The business will require significant amounts of capital to sustain operations and make the investments it needs to execute its longer term business plan. The Company has cash of $86,247 and working capital deficiency of $3,381,659, at June 30, 2015. The Company has historically relied on proceeds from the issuance of debt and shares of its Common Stock to finance its operations. The Company’s net loss for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 was $1,837,820 and the deficit accumulated by the Company amounts to $17,466,806 as of June 30, 2015. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

  

In order to continue as a going concern and achieve a profitable level of operations, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources.  Management’s plan to continue as a going concern includes raising capital through increased sales and conducting additional financings through debt and equity transactions. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the management’s ability to successfully implement the plans described above, including securing additional sources of financing and attain profitable operations.   Management also cannot provide any assurance that unforeseen circumstances that could occur at any time within the next twelve months or thereafter will not increase the need for the Company to raise additional capital on an immediate basis. The Company is actively targeting sources of additional financing through debt and equity transactions and other transactions. There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to raise funds in which case the Company may be unable to meet its obligations.

  

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

  

  a. Basis of Consolidation

  

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions are eliminated.

  

  b. Basis of Accounting

  

The balance sheet presented as of December 31, 2014 has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements. The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of article 8 of the Regulation S-X of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), have been omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, but we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes included herein should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2014 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 14, 2015.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal, recurring adjustments and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these interim statements have been included. The results of operations for the three and six-month period ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2015.

  

  c. Cash and Cash Equivalents

  

Cash primarily consists of cash on hand and bank deposits. The Company currently has no cash equivalents which would consist of money market accounts and other highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased.

  

F-5
 

 

  d. Use of Estimates in Preparation of Financial Statements

  

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 date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results will differ from those estimates. Included in these estimates are assumptions about collection of accounts and notes receivable, useful life of fixed assets, and assumptions used in Black-Scholes-Merton, or BSM, valuation methods, such as expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividend rate.

  

  e. Property and Equipment

  

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method. The depreciation and amortization methods are designed to amortize the cost of the assets over their estimated useful lives, in years, of the respective assets as follows:

  

Computers 4 Years
Vehicles 4 Years
Office Equipment 7 Years
Food Service Equipment 7 Years
Furniture and Fixtures 7 Years
Leasehold Improvements 7 Years

  

Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the life of the lease or the estimated useful life of the assets. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Improvements of a major nature are capitalized. At the time of retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gains or losses are reflected in income. 

 

The Company reviews the carrying value of property and equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the manner in which the property is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors.

  

  f. Accounts Receivable

  

Accounts receivable are generally unsecured. The majority of the Company’s sales are in cash from truck stop sales. Receivables relate to catering and special event sales. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based on the age of outstanding invoices and management’s evaluation of collectability. Accounts are written off after all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted and management concludes that likelihood of collection is remote. Any future recoveries are applied against the allowance for doubtful accounts.

  

  g. Revenue Recognition

  

The Company’s revenue is derived from three sources. The primary source is from truck stop sales and lesser portions are from catering and event services and licensed truck sales. Truck stop sales are primarily received in cash and revenue for these sales, net of sales tax, is reported at that time.

  

For catering and special event services, customers must sign and deliver the Company’s standard catering agreement with a minimum payment of 50% of the agreed upon price of the event. The remaining balance is due by credit card payment within 2 days of the event or cash on the day of the event. The initial 50% deposit is fully refundable until 14 days prior to the event, between 4 and 13 days prior to the event, the deposit is non-refundable and if the customer cancels within 3 days of the event, 100% of the agreed-upon price of the event is due. Revenue is recognized, net of sales tax, at the time goods and services are provided.

 

F-6
 

 

For recurring licensing revenue, which is based on 6% of gross revenue from truck stop sales collected by the licensee, revenue is recognized at the end of each month when the licensee is invoiced and the revenue is booked as a receivable.

  

For area licensing revenue, which is generally a fixed amount, the revenue is recognized when the Company has no remaining obligations or intent, either by agreement, trade practice, or law, to the extent it is collectible.

  

Any amount receivable or received pursuant to licensing revenues, but unrecognized for revenue recognition purpose is recorded as deferred revenues.

  

  h. Advertising Costs

  

Advertising costs are expensed when incurred. These costs consist primarily of printing for signs, menus, and promotional items. Also included are costs of web based advertising. Total advertising expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 amounted to $44,281 and $12,886, respectively.

  

  i. Earnings (loss) per common share

 

The Company utilizes the guidance per ASC 260 “Earnings per Share”. Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing income available to stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period. Dilutive common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the conversion of convertible notes and the exercise of stock options and warrants (calculated using the modified-treasury stock method). Such securities, shown below, presented on a common share equivalent basis and outstanding as of June 30, 2015 and 2014 have been excluded from the per share computations:

  j. Income Taxes

  

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 “Income taxes” (“ASC 740-10-25”). Under ASC 740-10-25, 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 bases. Deferred 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. Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Penalties and interest on underpayment of income taxes are reflected in the Company’s effective tax rate.

  

  k. Sales Taxes

  

The Company’s revenues in the statements of operations are net of sales taxes.

 

F-7
 

 

  l. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

  

The Company adopted ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC 820 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to existing generally accepted accounting principles that require the use of fair value measurements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements. The adoption of ASC 820 did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position or operating results, but did expand certain disclosures.

 

ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, ASC 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized below:

  

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

  

Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data

  

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

  

The Company did not have any Level 2 or Level 3 assets or liabilities as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, with the exception of its convertible notes payable. The carrying amounts of these liabilities at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 approximate their respective fair value based on the Company’s incremental borrowing rate.

  

Additional Disclosures Regarding Fair Value Measurements

  

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, other receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, notes payable and promissory notes- including related parties liabilities- approximate their fair value due to the short term maturity of these items.

  

In addition, ASC 825-10-25 “Fair Value Option” (“ASC 825-10-25”), was effective for January 1, 2008. ASC 825-10-25 expands opportunities to use fair value measurements in financial reporting and permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The Company did not elect the fair value options for any of its qualifying financial instruments.

  

  m. Convertible Instruments

 

The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in its convertible instruments in accordance with professional standards for “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.”

  

Professional standards generally provides three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument.  Professional standards also provide an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional as defined under professional standards as “The Meaning of “Conventional Convertible Debt Instrument.” 

 

F-8
 

 

The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with professional standards when “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features,” as those professional standards pertain to “Certain Convertible Instruments.” Accordingly, the Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying Common Stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Debt discounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their earliest date of redemption. The Company also records when necessary deemed dividends for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in preferred shares based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying Common Stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note.

  

ASC 815-40 provides that, among other things, generally, if an event is not within the entity’s control could or require net cash settlement, then the contract shall be classified as an asset or a liability.

  

  n. Deferred Financing Costs

 

Costs incurred with obtaining and executing debt arrangements are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related debt using the effective interest method.

  

  o. Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 718 “Compensation- Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using a binomial model, consistent with the provisions of ASC 718 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, Share-Based Payment. Option-pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the price volatility of the underlying stock. The Company determined that the use of implied volatility is expected to be more reflective of market conditions and, therefore, could reasonably be expected to be a better indicator of our expected volatility than historical volatility. The expected term assumption used in calculating the estimated fair value of our stock-based compensation awards using the binomial model is based on detailed historical data about employees’ exercise behavior, vesting schedules, and death and disability probabilities. In addition, the Company is required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and only recognize expense for those shares expected to vest. The Company estimates the forfeiture rate based on historical experience of the Company’s stock-based awards that are granted, exercised and cancelled. The Company believes the resulting binomial calculation provides a more refined estimate of the fair value of the Company’s employee stock options. For the Company’s employee stock purchase plan, the Company decided to continue to use the Black-Scholes model to calculate the estimated fair value.

  

  p. Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

ASU 2015-03 

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. The amendments in this ASU require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this ASU. The amendments are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The amendments are to be applied on a retrospective basis, wherein the balance sheet of each individual period presented is adjusted to reflect the period-specific effects of applying the new guidance. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-03 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.  

 

F-9
 

 

ASU 2015-02 

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis, which is intended to improve targeted areas of consolidation guidance for legal entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability corporations, and securitization structures (collateralized debt obligations, collateralized loan obligations, and mortgage-backed security transactions). The ASU focuses on the consolidation evaluation for reporting organizations that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. In addition to reducing the number of consolidation models from four to two, the new standard simplifies the FASB Accounting Standards Codification and improves current U.S. GAAP by placing more emphasis on risk of loss when determining a controlling financial interest, reducing the frequency of the application of related-party guidance when determining a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity (“VIE”), and changing consolidation conclusions for companies in several industries that typically make use of limited partnerships or VIEs. The ASU will be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-02 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

  

ASU 2015-01 

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, “Income Statement - Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20): Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items.” This ASU eliminates from U.S. GAAP the concept of extraordinary items. ASU 2015-01 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. A reporting entity may apply the amendments prospectively. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-01 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. 

 

ASU 2014-17 

In November 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-17, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Pushdown Accounting.” This ASU provides an acquired entity with an option to apply pushdown accounting in its separate financial statements upon occurrence of an event in which an acquirer obtains control of the acquired entity. An acquired entity may elect the option to apply pushdown accounting in the reporting period in which the change-in-control event occurs. If pushdown accounting is applied to an individual change-in-control event, that election is irrevocable. ASU 2014-17 was effective on November 18, 2014. The adoption of ASU 2014-17 did not have any effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

  

ASU 2014-16 

In November 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-16, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815).” ASU 2014-16 addresses whether the host contract in a hybrid financial instrument issued in the form of a share should be accounted for as debt or equity. ASU 2014-16 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. We do not currently have issued, nor are we investors in, hybrid financial instruments. Accordingly, we do not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-16 to have any effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

  

ASU 2014-15 

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40)”. ASU 2014-15 provides guidance related to management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosure. ASU 2014-15 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and for interim and annual periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-15 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

  

ASU 2014-12 

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period.” This ASU requires that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. ASU 2014-12 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-12 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. 

  

F-10
 

 

ASU 2014-09 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” ASU 2014-09 affects any entity using U.S. GAAP that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards (e.g., insurance contracts or lease contracts). ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. We are still evaluating the effect of the adoption of ASU 2014-09. On April 1, 2015, the FASB voted to propose to defer the effective date of the new revenue recognition standard by one year.

  

ASU 2014-08

 In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360) and Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity.” ASU 2014-08 amends the definition for what types of asset disposals are to be considered discontinued operations, as well as amending the required disclosures for discontinued operations and assets held for sale. ASU 2014-08 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2014. The adoption of ASU 2014-08 did not have any effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

  

The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Letter of Intent:

 

On January 27, 2015, The Grilled Cheese Truck, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a letter of intent (the “Brinton LOI”) with DJ Brinton Lake, LLC, a Pennsylvania limited liability company (“Brinton”), whereby the Company intends to acquire all, or substantially all, of the related assets of Brinton (the “Brinton Assets”). Pursuant to the terms of the Brinton LOI, the parties agreed that until March 31, 2015, Brinton will not negotiate with, or agree to sell or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of the Brinton Assets to any other third party. In addition, the Brinton LOI included a non-binding term sheet describing terms of the acquisition and that the parties agreed to further negotiate and reduce such terms to a definitive purchase agreement. The execution and delivery of the definitive purchase agreement will be subject to certain conditions contained in the definitive purchase agreement, including but not limited to, Brinton obtaining any necessary consent to sell such Brinton Assets to the Company from Brinton’s franchisor or termination of any agreement that may prohibit the sale of the Brinton Assets. On March 31, 2015, the Company entered into an amendment to the Brinton LOI (the “Brinton Amendment”) between the Company and Brinton, pursuant to which the Company intends to acquire all, or substantially all, of the related assets of Brinton (the “Brinton Assets”). Pursuant to the Brinton LOI, the parties agreed that until March 31, 2015 (the “Expiration Date”), Brinton will not enter into negotiations with any third party for the sale of the Brinton Assets. Under the Brinton Amendment, the parties agreed to extend the Expiration Date until May 31, 2015. The remaining terms and conditions of the Brinton LOI remain unchanged. On May 31, 2015, the Company entered into an amendment to a letter of intent (the “Brinton Amendment 2”) between the Company and Brinton, dated as of January 27, 2015 (as amended on March 26, 2015, the “Brinton LOI”), pursuant to which the Company intends to acquire all, or substantially all, of the related assets of Brinton (the “Brinton Assets”). Pursuant to the Brinton LOI, the parties agreed that until May 31, 2015 (the “Expiration Date”), Brinton will not enter into negotiations with any third party for the sale of the Brinton Assets. Under the Brinton Amendment, the parties agreed to extend the Expiration Date until July 31, 2015. The Company is currently conducting ongoing discussions with Brinton to extend the LOI. The remaining terms and conditions of the Brinton LOI remain unchanged.

 

On January 27, 2015, the Company also entered into a letter of intent (the “King LOI”) with DJR King of Prussia, Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (“King”), whereby the Company intends to acquire all, or substantially all, of the related assets of King (the “King Assets”). Pursuant to the terms of the King LOI, the parties agreed that until March 31, 2015, King will not negotiate with, or agree to sell or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of the King Assets to any other third party. In addition, the King LOI included a non-binding term sheet describing terms of the acquisition and that the parties agreed to further negotiate and reduce such terms to a definitive purchase agreement.

Overview

 

TRIG Acquisition 1, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 31, 2009 as GSP-1, Inc. The Company was formed as a vehicle to pursue a business combination. On October 18, 2012 (the “Closing Date”), Trig Acquisition 1, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) by and among (i) the Company, (ii) Grilled Cheese, Inc., a California corporation, (“Grilled Cheese”), (iii) GCT, Inc., a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“GCT”). The Company selected December 31 as its fiscal year end. On July 6, 2011, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation to change its name from “GSP-1, Inc.” to “TRIG Acquisition 1, Inc.” On February 19, 2013, following the Share Exchange Transaction, the Company changed its corporate name from “TRIG Acquisition 1, Inc.” to “The Grilled Cheese Truck, Inc.”

 

From inception until the closing of the Share Exchange Transaction, we solely existed as a vehicle to pursue a business combination. As a result of the Share Exchange Transaction, we ceased our prior operations on October 18, 2012 and, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Grilled Cheese, now operate as a gourmet food truck Company, specializing in gourmet grilled cheese.

 

Grilled Cheese, Inc. was a privately held California S corporation, incorporated on September 18, 2009. Immediately prior to the closing of the Share Exchange Transaction, David Danhi was the majority shareholder of Grilled Cheese. Grilled Cheese’s operations to date have consisted of sales of grilled cheese and food related items in their food trucks, business formation, strategic development, marketing, website development, negotiations with prospective licensees and franchisees and capital raising activities.

 

The Grilled Cheese Truck is a gourmet food truck that sells various types of gourmet grilled cheese and other comfort foods principally in the Los Angeles, California area and in Phoenix, Arizona. Each of our trucks currently makes approximately ten stops per week (lunch and dinner five days a week) at prearranged locations. We are a hub and spoke operator, whereby all the food preparation occurs at our kitchens which support streamlined operations within the truck by limiting truck activity to assembly and grilling to focus on customer service, allowing the truck to achieve maximum revenues per hour and delivering melts, Tater Tots, soups and sides efficiently and consistently to its customers. Our business model implements the use of social media and advance location booking to secure high sales per stop. Our website, www.thegrilledcheesetruck.com lists the weekly schedule where the trucks will be stopping.

 

We are capitalizing on the burgeoning food truck industry through our established food service operations and social media strategy. Driving our growth, we have received national media visibility and as of the date of this report, have accumulated over 150,000 followers through a variety of social media platforms, including Facebook and Twitter. The gourmet food truck industry is in an early stage of development and is highly fragmented and is expected to grow year over year for the foreseeable future.

 

We believe that the use of social media allows us to communicate with a large group of an interested customers and our fan base in real time, letting them know exactly where and when our food trucks will be located.  We believe that providing potential customers with up-to-date information regarding the time and location of our trucks helps promote and drive additional customers to our trucks, therefore increasing our sales at each prospective location. We believe we have established brand presence in certain locations, such as Southern California and Phoenix, Arizona, but have sustained losses to date.

·reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements; and

 

·exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

 

Although we qualify as an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act, we have elected not to take advantage of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards pursuant to Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act and such election not use such transition period is irrevocable.

Revenue. The slight decrease in food truck sales during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015, when compared to the comparable prior year period, is primarily due to a decrease in the number of trucks. Catering and special events increased due to an increase in special events. During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015, we operated with fewer vehicles at higher level of per truck revenue due to focusing our sales on better locations, more venues, larger scale events, and in turn reduced stops that were less profitable. The number of food trucks in operations was 5 during the six month period ended June 30, 2015, when compared to 8 during the comparable prior year period.

 

We believe our revenues for the remainder 2015 will increase as we expand into new markets and increase the number of trucks in operation.

 

Cost of sales. Cost of sales is mainly comprised of food and beverage products used to make grilled cheese sandwiches, other food products, beverages and paper products and the operating costs related to the food truck, including food truck employee compensation and benefits, commissary kitchen costs, maintenance and fuel. The decrease in cost of sales is related to the decrease in the number of trucks in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015, and the reduction of food and beverage costs, food truck expenses and commissary and kitchen expenses.

 

Food and beverage expenses consist primarily of bread, cheese, meats, seafood and other types of foods and various types of beverages. The decrease in food and beverage cost of sales and as a percentage of sales during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015, when compared to the comparable prior year period, is primarily related to a more efficient procurement and management of food costs and better purchasing and inventory management practices as we gain experience in the management of our food and beverage related products.

 

Food truck expenses consist of truck staff payroll, truck insurance, gas, repairs and maintenance and other truck related expenses. The decrease in food truck cost of sales was primarily reduction in the number of trucks utilized in the Company’s operations in Phoenix and Los Angeles. This decrease in food truck expenses was related to reducing the truck related expenses and truck staff personnel required to operate fewer trucks during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015. Food truck labor has been greatly reduced due to our management team restructuring and reorganizing the operating departments. We have reduced hourly & salaried staff down by an average of 35% and schedule management resulting in less overtime pay which has improved productivity in all employees and it breeds a sense of ownership & accountability.

 

Kitchen expenses consist of occupancy, equipment and commissary employee compensation. The kitchen expenses decreased during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015 when compared to the comparable prior year period reducing the number of trucks in operations results in lower commissary and kitchen employees and due to better purchasing practices.

 

Gross profit. The increase in gross profit relates to the decrease in the food and beverage costs as well as food truck expenses and kitchen expenses.

General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses consists of general corporate expenses, including but not limited to market development, insurance, professional costs, clerical and administrative overhead. The decrease in general and administrative expenses during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015 is primarily related to the expenses associated with the increased general and administrative expenses, consulting fees, professional fees and executive compensation, which were needed to expand the business and support its growing operations and prepare the Company for public trading, which were mostly incurred during the six month period ended June 30, 2014. 

 

Selling costs. Selling costs include, but are not limited to, marketing and promotion, printing, processing fees and utility vehicle rental which is used to transport employees to and from the food trucks. The increase in selling costs during the six month period ended June 30, 2015, when compared to the comparable prior year period, while there was a decrease in selling costs during the three month period ended June 30, 2015, when compared to the comparable prior year period, relates to a higher number of marketing events held in Los Angeles, San Diego and Phoenix, which occurred primarily in the first quarter of 2015.

 

Consulting expense, related party. The increase in consulting expenses-related parties is primarily due in order to expand the business and support operations and capital market activities of the Company.

 

Depreciation. The decrease in depreciation relates to a decrease in property and equipment during the six months ended June 30, 2015 as compared the same period in 2014.

 

Bad debts. During the six month period ended June 30, 2015, we reserved an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable of $3,386, as compared to $0 during the same period in 2014.

 

Other Income (Expenses). Other income (expenses) includes recognition of interest, amortization of debt discount and amortization of deferred financing costs. The changes in other income (expenses) are primarily due to a decrease in interest expense primarily attributable to the decrease in convertible note payable outstanding during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015 as compared to the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014.

 

Net loss. Net loss for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 decreased by $1,631,624 to a loss of $1,837,820 from a loss of $3,469,444 for the same period in 2014.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The business will require significant amounts of capital to sustain operations and make the investments it needs to execute its longer term business plan. The Company had cash of $86,247 and working capital deficiency of approximately $3.4 million at June 30, 2015. The Company’s cash and working capital amounts were derived from the proceeds of financing transactions through the issuance of notes, convertible notes and Common Stock purchase warrants and shares of our Common Stock. The Company’s net loss for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 was approximately $1.8 million and our accumulated deficit amounts to $17.5 million as of June 30, 2015. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

In order to continue as a going concern and achieve a profitable level of operations, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources.  Management’s plan to continue operating as a going concern includes raising capital, which could further dilute our existing Shareholders, and to implement the execution of its business plan to become cash flow positive from the completion of its offering and equity financing. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the management’s ability to successfully implement the plans described above, including securing additional sources of financing and attain profitable operations.   Management also cannot provide any assurance that unforeseen circumstances that could occur at any time within the next twelve months or thereafter will not increase the need for the Company to raise additional capital on an immediate basis. There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to raise funds in which case the Company may be unable to meet its obligations.

The Company’s liquidity and capital needs relate primarily to working capital and other general corporate requirements. To date, the Company has funded its operations with convertible loans and by the sale of Common Stock and through private placement offerings.

 

Six-month period ended June 30, 2015

 

Cash used in operations of $1,301,852 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 consists primarily of our net loss of approximately $1,838,000, adjusted by depreciation and amortization of approximately $155,000, and the fair value of options, warrants, and shares of our Common Stock of approximately $313,000. Additionally, our accounts payable and payroll related liabilities and accrued compensation, including payables to related parties, and accrued interest increased by approximately $142,000 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015.

 

Cash used in investing activities of $29,000 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 consists primarily of our purchase of a truck to be used by our Military Subsidiary.

 

Cash provided by financing activities of $1,069,000 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 consists primarily of proceeds generated from the issuance of shares of our Common Stock, convertible notes and promissory notes, which amounted to $1,054,000, offset by principal repayments of notes payable aggregating $25,000 and financing cost of $60,000. Additionally, the Company issued shares of its Common Stock to satisfy obligations under convertible promissory notes and accrued interest aggregating approximately $100,000.

 

Six-month period ended June 30, 2014

 

Cash used in operations of $1,370,062 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 consists primarily of our net loss of approximately $3.5 million, adjusted by depreciation and amortization of $365,138, and the fair value of options, warrants, and shares of our Common Stock of $675,227. Additionally, our accounts payable and accrued compensation, included payables to related parties, and accrued interest increased by approximately $1.0 million during the six-month ended June 30, 2014, as we delayed cash payments with certain agreeable parties to keep a certain level of liquidity and we satisfied certain payables and accrued compensation aggregating $590,000 by issuing shares of our Common Stock.

 

Cash provided by financing activities of $2,351,625 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2014 consists primarily of proceeds generated from the issuance of shares of our common stock and promissory notes, which amounted to $2,460,625, offset by principal repayments of notes payable aggregating $99,000. Additionally, the Company issued shares of its Common Stock to satisfy obligations under convertible promissory notes and accrued interest aggregating $3.6 million.

 

Financial Position

 

The Company’s liquidity and capital needs relate primarily to working capital and other general corporate requirements. Since inception, the Company raised approximately $4,475,000 in senior secured notes, of which $3,200,000 was converted into shares of our Common Stock as of June 30, 2015, and approximately $3 million through the issuance of our shares of Common Stock. Management plans to continue raising capital to implement the expansion plan and become cash flow positive within twelve months. The Company expects to use the proceeds for operating and working capital, significantly expanding the number of trucks, opening stores and paying professional fees.

 

Total assets decreased by approximately $4,000, at June 30, 2015.

 

Total liabilities increased by approximately $845,000, primarily from the issuance of convertible promissory notes.

 

Total stockholders’ deficit increased by approximately $849,000 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015. This increase was primarily attributable to our net loss, offset by the issuance of shares of our common stock through the exercise of warrants, fair value of options and warrants issued for services and beneficial conversion feature on convertible notes payable and warrants.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We had no off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

 

Inflation

 

We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our Company’s results of operations.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 3 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. 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, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Smaller reporting companies are not required to provide the information required by this item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted to the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms, and that information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive and financial officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report (the “Evaluation Date”), pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, due to material weaknesses in our control environment and financial reporting process. A “material weakness” is defined under SEC rules as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company’s internal controls. Our management concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective and we had material weaknesses in our control environment and financial reporting process consisting of the following as of the Evaluation Date:

 

  1) lack of a functioning audit committee due to a lack of a majority of independent members and a  lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in  the establishment and monitoring of required internal control and procedures;

 

8
 

 

  2)   inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives;

 

  3)   ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes; and

 

  4) lack of accounting personnel with adequate experience and training.

 

As of the date of this Report, the Company does not intend to remedy the foregoing and therefore such material weaknesses in our control environment and financial reporting process will continue. A system of controls, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the system of controls are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

 

Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

 

No changes were made to our internal control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A .Risk Factors.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

 

In June 2015, the Company completed its closing of its best efforts private offering (the “12% Note Offering”) of up to $1,000,000 of 12% Senior Convertible Promissory Notes (the “12% Notes”), whereby the Company issued to 5 accredited investors a 12% Note in the aggregate principal amount of $250,000, pursuant to a subscription agreement with the investors.

 

The 12% Notes mature on December 31, 2015 (the “Maturity Date”), unless voluntarily converted by the purchaser. Prior to the Maturity Date, the 12% Notes are subject to a voluntary conversion at the election of the purchaser, whereby the purchaser may elect to convert the principal amount of the 12% Note, including all accrued but unpaid interests, into restricted shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $1.00 per share (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends or similar events).

 

In addition, each purchaser of the 12% Notes shall receive a warrant (the “12% Warrants”) to purchase 33,333 shares of Common Stock for every 12% Note purchased in the principal face amount of $50,000. Such 12% Warrants shall be exercisable for a period three years from the date of issuance at an exercise price of $1.50 per share. Accordingly, the Company issued a 12% Warrant to purchase 166,665 shares of Common Stock to the investors. The issuance of the 12% Notes and 12% Warrants qualified for exemption under Rule 506(b) promulgated under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act since the issuance of these securities by the Company did not involve a public offering.

 

On May 8, 2015, the Company completed its third closing of its best efforts private offering of up to $5,000,000 of its 10% Senior Convertible Promissory Notes (the “10% Notes”), whereby the Company issued to an accredited investor a 10% Note in the aggregate principal amount of $75,000, pursuant to a subscription agreement with the investor.

 

The 10% Note matures on June 30, 2016 (the “Maturity Date”), unless voluntarily converted by the purchaser. Prior to the Maturity Date, the 10% Note is subject to a voluntary conversion at the election of the purchaser, whereby the purchaser may elect to convert the principal amount of the 10% Note, including all accrued but unpaid interests, into restricted shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $2.00 per share (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends or similar events).

In addition, each purchaser of the 10% Note shall receive a warrant (the “10% Warrants”) to purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock for every 10% Note purchased in the principal face amount of $100,000. Such 10% Warrants shall be exercisable for a period three years from the date of issuance at an exercise price of $4.00 per share. Accordingly, the Company issued a 10% Warrant to purchase 37,500 shares of Common Stock to the investor. The issuance of the 10% Notes and 10% Warrants qualified for exemption under Rule 506(b) promulgated under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act since the issuance of these securities by the Company did not involve a public offering.

 

In the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company issued a total of 140,250 shares, at an average price of $1.25 per share, to satisfy accounts payable.

 

The issuances of the Company’s common stock to satisfy accounts payable were completed in private transactions by the Company not involving any public offering pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) and Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act. The securities may not be resold by the holders unless such shares are registered or an exemption from registration is available.
