VIDEO RIVER NETWORKS, INC.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Video River Networks, Inc. (the “Company”) is a technology firm that operates and manages a portfolio of Electric Vehicles, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotics (“EV-AI-ML-R”) assets, businesses and operations in North America. The Company’s current and target portfolio businesses and assets include operations that design, develop, manufacture and sell high-performance fully electric vehicles and design, manufacture, install and sell Power Controls, Battery Technology, Wireless Technology, and Residential utility meters and remote, mission-critical devices mostly engineered through Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotic technologies. The Company currently maintains minor equity interest in: (1) Tesla, Inc. (TSLA), a California based maker of high-performance fully electric vehicles; (2) Electrameccanica Vehicles Corp. (SOLO), a British Columbia, Canada headquartered company that designs and builds the all-electric SOLO and the Tofino all-electric sport coupe; (3) Lordstown Motors Corp. (RIDE), a Lordstown, Ohio based company that designs and manufactures electric vehicles; (4) Fisker Inc. (FSR), a Los Angeles, California headquartered company that designs and builds all-electric, zero-emissions vehicles; (5) Nikola Corporation (NKLA), a Phoenix, Arizona company that designs and manufactures electric components, drivetrains and vehicles.
Our current technology-focused business model was a result of our board resolution on September 15, 2020 to spin-in our specialty real estate holding business to an operating subsidiary and then pivot back to being a technology company. The Company has now returned back to its original technology-focused businesses of Power Controls, Battery Technology, Wireless Technology, and Residential utility meters and remote, mission-critical devices. In addition to above list, the Company intends to spread its wings into the Electric Vehicles, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotics (“EV-AI-ML-R”) businesses/markets, targeting acquisition, ownership and operation of acquired EV-AI-ML-R businesses or portfolio of EV-AI-ML-R businesses.
Video River Networks, prior to September 15, 2020, used to be a specialty real estate holding company, focuses on the acquisition, ownership, and management of specialized industrial properties. Prior to its real estate business model, the Company’s Power Controls Division has used wireless technology to control both residential utility meters and remote, mission-critical devices since 2002.
The current management of the Company resulted from a purchase of voting control of the Company by Community Economic Development Capital LLC, (“CED Capital”) a California limited liability company. After the change of control transaction, CED Capital spun out the control-stock to its sole unitholder before being sold to the Company for $1. Thereafter CED Capital became an operating subsidiary of the Company. We used the acquisition of method of accounting for acquisition of subsidiaries by the Group method to account for this transaction. The cost of the acquisition was measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange.
As
previously disclosed on our Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, on December 8, 2019,
| 8 |
Following the completion of above mentioned transactions, the company pivoted the business model to become a specialty real estate holding company for specialized assets including, affordable housing, opportunity zones properties, commercial facilities, industrial and commercial real estate, and other real estate related services.
On
September 15, 2020, Video River Networks, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a stock purchase agreement with Kid Castle Educational
Corporation (“Kid Castle”), an entity related to, and controlled by our President and CEO with respect to the purchase through
private placement, of shares of its preferred stock at a purchase price of $
On April 21, 2021, the Company sold Cannabinoid Biosciences, Inc. (“CBDX”), a California corporation, to Premier Information Management, Inc. for $1 in cash. As further consideration pursuant to the stated sales, CBDX returned Kid Castle Educational Inc., the parent Company of GMPW, the shares of KDCE preferred stock and shares of KDCE common stock that CBDX bought in October of 2019. Pursuant to the April 21, 2021 transaction, CBDX ceased from being a subsidiary of GMPW, effective April 1, 2021.
As at the time of these transactions, all four businesses involved in the transactions were controlled by Mr. Frank I Igwealor. Because both the buyer and seller in the above acquisitions were under the control of the same person, the transaction was classified as “common control transaction and therefore fall under “Transactions Between Entities Under Common Control” subsections of ASC 805-50. Under ASC 805-50, “assets transferred to the entity are generally not stepped up to fair value. Instead, they are recorded at the ultimate parent’s historical cost basis. Whether the transaction should be retrospectively or prospectively applied is dependent on the nature of the common control transaction. Transfer of net assets or a business are reflected retrospectively, whereas transfers of assets are prospective.” “The financial statements of the receiving entity should report results of operations for the period in which the transfer occurs as though the transfer of net assets or exchange of equity interests had occurred at the beginning of the period. Results of operations for that period will thus comprise those of the previously separate entities combined from the beginning of the period to the date the transfer is completed and those of the combined operations from that date to the end of the period.”
As
at the time of this transaction, all four businesses involved in the transaction were controlled by Mr. Frank I Igwealor. Because both
the buyer and seller in the above acquisitions were under the control of the same person, the transaction was classified as “common
control transaction and therefore fall under “Transactions Between Entities Under Common Control” subsections of ASC 805-50.
Following the acquisition, the Company now has
The consolidated financial statements of the Company therefore include Kid Castle Educational Corporation and its subsidiary, GiveMePower Corporation, and all wholly owned (or majority owned) subsidiaries of GiveMePower including Alpharidge Capital LLC. (“Alpharidge”), Community Economic Development Capital, LLC. (“CED Capital”), and Cannabinoid Biosciences, Inc. (“CBDX”), and subsidiaries, in which it has a controlling voting interest and entities consolidated under the variable interest entities (“VIE”) provisions of ASC 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”), after elimination of intercompany transactions and accounts.
Following the completion of the transaction with Kid Castle, the Company having been partly freed of the internally-managed real estate holding business that focused on the acquisition, ownership and management of specialized industrial properties, affordable housing and opportunity zone real estate properties and businesses, has decided to return back to its original technology-focused businesses of Power Controls, Battery Technology, Wireless Technology, and Residential utility meters and remote, mission-critical devices. In addition to above list, the Company is spreading its wings into the Electric Vehicles, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotics (“EV-AI-ML-R”) businesses/markets, targeting acquisition, ownership and operation of acquired EV-AI-ML-R businesses or portfolio of EV-AI-ML-R businesses.

The consolidated financial statements of the Company therefore include Kid Castle Educational Corporation, whose main operating subsidiary is GiveMePower Corporation, a Nevada corporation with operating subsidiaries that includes Alpharidge Capital LLC. (“Alpharidge”), Community Economic Development Capital, LLC. (“CED Capital”), and subsidiaries, in which GiveMePower has a controlling voting interest and entities consolidated under the variable interest entities (“VIE”) provisions of ASC 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”), after elimination of intercompany transactions and accounts.
Alpharidge’s Entrepreneurship Development Initiative
In April of 2021, Alpharidge launched its Entrepreneurship Development Initiative which entails: (1) Portfolio – acquiring OTC trading shells with stop signs and cleaning them up to become Pink Current, then merging them with emerging businesses controlled by Alpharidge-trained entrepreneurs; and (2) Custodianship – use the custodianship process in Nevada and Delaware to acquire custodianship of abandoned OTC-trading shells, clean them up to become Pink Current, then merging them with emerging businesses controlled by Alpharidge-trained entrepreneurs.
On April 22, 2021, Alpharidge retained a Nevada based Attorney to petition for custodianship of Mondial Ventures, Inc. Alpharidge later lost the attempt and expensed all related cost as Professional fees – legal. On May 5, 2021, Alpharidge purchase from the open market, Labwire, Inc., (LBWR) and Waypoint Biomedical, Inc., both of which it has brought Pink Current. As at the date of this reports, Alpharidge’ Entrepreneurship Development Initiative Portfolio has bought also purchase Nano Mobile Healthcare, Inc. to make it 3 shells. The Custodianship has petitioned for MNVN, HMLA, TONR, ECMH, ABWN, FPMI, NTGL, CGUD, ICOA, SRBT, USWF, NWTT, USBC, WRMA, WWRL, HERF, NRCD, TGMR, ITRX, AFFN, UTDE, AOBI, SRCX, ADCV, DVFI, APWL, CIVX, NHLG, ILIM, CCWF, TMXN, MNDP, JPEX, SVLT, MTEI, CAMG, CDBT, ERGO, NOUV, ICNM, PRDL, OCLG, ILST and FCGD, altogether 44 petitions filed within 8 weeks. Of the 44, Alpharidge lost, walked-away, or withdrew from 9 petitions.” Cost related to the successful petitions were capitalized on the Company’s balance sheet as “Entrepreneurship Development” and those related to failed petitions were expensed in the period incurred as “Professional Fees - legal.”

We have dedicated a line-item, “Crypto Currency Mining Rigs,” on our balance to track all our investments in the Crypto Currency Mining Operation. We plan to build out a fully operating farm in California, using solar energy to mitigate the high cost of energy in California.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, in which the Company has a controlling voting interest and entities consolidated under the variable interest entities (“VIE”) provisions of ASC 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”). Inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
ASC 810 requires that the investor with the controlling financial interest should consolidate the investee/affiliate. ASC 810-10 requires that an equity interest investor consolidates a VIE when it retains an investment in the entity, is considered a variable interest investor in the entity, and is the primary beneficiary of the entity. An investor in a VIE is a “variable interest beneficiary” when, per an arrangement’s governing documents, the investor will absorb a portion of the VIE’s expected losses or will receive a portion of the entity’s “residual returns.” The variable interest beneficiary retaining a controlling financial interest in the VIE is designated as its “primary beneficiary” and must consolidate the VIE. A variable interest beneficiary retains a “controlling financial interest” in a VIE when that beneficiary retains the power to direct the activities of the VIE that have the greatest influence over the VIE’s economic performance and retains an obligation to absorb the VIE’s significant losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Based on the ASC 810 test above, Video River Networks Inc. is the primary beneficiary of Kid Castle Educational Corporation (the “VIE”) because Video River Networks retained a controlling financial interest in the VIE and has the power to direct the activities of the VIE, having the greatest influence over the VIE’s economic performance and retains an obligation to absorb the VIE’s significant losses and the right to determine and receive benefits from the VIE.

COVID-19 Risks, Impacts and Uncertainties
COVID-19 Risks, Impacts and Uncertainties — We are subject to the risks arising from COVID-19’s impacts on the residential real estate industry. Our management believes that these impacts, which include but are not limited to the following, could have a significant negative effect on our future financial position, results of operations, and cash flows: (i) prohibitions or limitations on in-person activities associated with residential real estate transactions; (ii) lack of consumer desire for in-person interactions and physical home tours; and (iii) deteriorating economic conditions, such as increased unemployment rates, recessionary conditions, lower yields on individuals’ investment portfolios, and more stringent mortgage financing conditions. In addition, we have considered the impacts and uncertainties of COVID-19 in our use of estimates in preparation of our consolidated financial statements. These estimates include, but are not limited to, likelihood of achieving performance conditions under performance-based equity awards, net realizable value of inventory, and the fair value of reporting units and goodwill for impairment.
In April 2020, following the government lockdown order, we asked all employees to begin to work from their homes and we also reduced the number of hours available to each of our employees by approximately by approximately 75%. These actions taken in response to the economic impact of COVID-19 on our business resulted in a reduction of productivity for the period ended September 30, 2021. All cost related to these actions are included in general and administrative expenses, as these costs were determined to be direct and incremental.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“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 could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We
maintain cash balances in a non-interest-bearing account that currently does not exceed federally insured limits. For the purpose of
the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.
As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we did maintain $
Financial Instruments
The estimated fair values for financial instruments were determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information. These estimates involved uncertainties and could not be determined with precision. The carrying amount of the our accounts payable and accruals, our accruals- related parties and loans – related parties approximate their fair values because of the short-term maturities of these instruments.
Fair Value Measurements:
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), provides a comprehensive framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures which are required about fair value measurements. Specifically, ASC 820 sets forth a definition of fair value and establishes a hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable value inputs. ASC 820 defines the hierarchy as follows:
| 13 |
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 1 are highly liquid and actively traded instruments with quoted prices, such as equities listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets but are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities in Level 2 are typically either comparable to actively traded securities or contracts or priced with models using highly observable inputs.
Level 3 – Significant inputs to pricing that are unobservable as of the reporting date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 3 are those with inputs requiring significant management judgment or estimation, such as complex and subjective models and forecasts used to determine the fair value of financial transmission rights.
Our financial instruments consist of accounts payable and accruals and our accruals- related parties. The carrying amount of the out accounts payable and accruals, accruals- related parties and loans – related parties approximates their fair values because of the short-term maturities of these instruments.
The Company’s financial instruments consisted of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and line of credit. The estimated fair value of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to or from affiliated companies, and notes payable approximates its carrying amount due to the short maturity of these instruments.
Financial Instruments
In the normal course of business, the Investment Funds may trade various financial instruments and enter into certain investment activities, which may give rise to off-balance-sheet risks, with the objective of capital appreciation or as economic hedges against other securities or the market as a whole. The Investment Funds’ investments may include futures, options, swaps and securities sold, not yet purchased. These financial instruments represent future commitments to purchase or sell other financial instruments or to exchange an amount of cash based on the change in an underlying instrument at specific terms at specified future dates. Risks arise with these financial instruments from potential counterparty non-performance and from changes in the market values of underlying instruments.
Credit concentrations may arise from investment activities and may be impacted by changes in economic, industry or political factors. The Investment Funds routinely execute transactions with counterparties in the financial services industry, resulting in credit concentration with respect to the financial services industry. In the ordinary course of business, the Investment Funds may also be subject to a concentration of credit risk to a particular counterparty. The Investment Funds seek to mitigate these risks by actively monitoring exposures, collateral requirements and the creditworthiness of its counterparties.
| 14 |
The Investment Funds have entered into various types of swap contracts with other counterparties. These agreements provide that they are entitled to receive or are obligated to pay in cash an amount equal to the increase or decrease, respectively, in the value of the underlying shares, debt and other instruments that are the subject of the contracts, during the period from inception of the applicable agreement to its expiration. In addition, pursuant to the terms of such agreements, they are entitled to receive or obligated to pay other amounts, including interest, dividends and other distributions made in respect of the underlying shares, debt and other instruments during the specified time frame. They are also required to pay to the counterparty a floating interest rate equal to the product of the notional amount multiplied by an agreed-upon rate, and they receive interest on any cash collateral that they post to the counterparty at the federal funds or LIBOR rate in effect for such period.
The Investment Funds may trade futures contracts. A futures contract is a firm commitment to buy or sell a specified quantity of a standardized amount of a deliverable grade commodity, security, currency or cash at a specified price and specified future date unless the contract is closed before the delivery date. Payments (or variation margin) are made or received by the Investment Funds each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the contract, and the whole value change is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss by the Investment Funds. When the contract is closed, the Investment Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.
The Investment Funds may utilize forward contracts to seek to protect their assets denominated in foreign currencies and precious metals holdings from losses due to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and spot rates. The Investment Funds’ exposure to credit risk associated with non-performance of such forward contracts is limited to the unrealized gains or losses inherent in such contracts, which are recognized in other assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets.
The Investment Funds may also enter into foreign currency contracts for purposes other than hedging denominated securities. When entering into a foreign currency forward contract, the Investment Funds agree to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed-upon price on an agreed-upon future date unless the contract is closed before such date. The Investment Funds record unrealized gains or losses on the contracts as measured by the difference between the forward foreign exchange rates at the dates of entry into such contracts and the forward rates at the reporting date.
Furthermore, the Investment Funds may also purchase and write option contracts. As a writer of option contracts, the Investment Funds receive a premium at the outset and then bear the market risk of unfavorable changes in the price of the underlying financial instrument. As a result of writing option contracts, the Investment Funds are obligated to purchase or sell, at the holder’s option, the underlying financial instrument. Accordingly, these transactions result in off-balance-sheet risk, as the Investment Funds’ satisfaction of the obligations may exceed the amount recognized in our consolidated balance sheets.
| 15 |
Certain terms of the Investment Funds’ contracts with derivative counterparties, which are standard and customary to such contracts, contain certain triggering events that would give the counterparties the right to terminate the derivative instruments. In such events, the counterparties to the derivative instruments could request immediate payment on derivative instruments in net liability positions.
Derivatives
From time to time, our subsidiaries enter into derivative contracts, including purchased and written option contracts, swap contracts, futures contracts and forward contracts. U.S. GAAP requires recognition of all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet at their fair value. The accounting for changes in fair value depends on the intended use of the derivative and its resulting designation. For those derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, a company must designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as a fair value hedge, cash flow hedge or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation. Gains and losses related to a hedge are either recognized in income immediately to offset the gain or loss on the hedged item or are deferred and reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and subsequently recognized in earnings when the hedged item affects earnings. The change in fair value of the ineffective portion of a financial instrument, determined using the hypothetical derivative method, is recognized in earnings immediately. The gain or loss related to financial instruments that are not designated as hedges are recognized immediately in earnings. Cash flows related to hedging activities are included in the operating section of the consolidated statements of cash flows. For further information regarding our derivative contracts, see Note 6, “Financial Instruments.”
Marginal Loan Payable
The
Company entered into a marginal loan agreement as part of its new trading account process in 2019 with the Company’s brokerage
for the purchase of securities and to fund the underfunded balance. The marginal loan payable bears interest at
Investment – Trading Securities
All
investment securities are classified as trading securities and are carried at fair value in accordance with ASC 320 Investments —
Debt and Equity Securities. Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses on sales of investments
are based on the first-in, first-out or the specific identification method. Realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are
recorded in the statements of operations as realized and unrealized gains or losses as net revenue. All investment securities are held
and transacted by the Company’s broker firm.
All investments that are listed on a securities exchange are valued at their last sales price on the primary securities exchange on which such securities are traded on such date. Securities that are not listed on any exchange but are traded over-the-counter are valued at the mean between the last “bid” and “ask” price for such security on such date. The Company does not have any investment securities for which market quotes are not readily available.
The Company’s trading securities are held by a third-party brokerage firm, and composed of publicly traded companies with readily available fair value which are quoted prices in active markets.

Related Party Transactions:
A
related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of our membership interests including such person’s
immediate families, (ii) our management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control
with us, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence our financial and operating decisions. A transaction is considered to be a related
party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. As at September 30, 2021, the Company
has a loan balance of $
The Company’s Other accrued liabilities entail licensing fees owned to Poverty Solutions, Inc., a control entity. The related party is a California nonprofit corporation that specialized in developing and deploying programs that help low-income persons and families to divest poverty, through affordable housing, real estate development, financial capability training, venture capital initiatives, private equity operations, and algorithmic trading models designs. The transaction is arm-length and 20/80 distribution is standard practice in the hedge-fund and private-equity industry.
Leases:
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases” that requires for leases longer than one year, a lessee to recognize in the statement of financial condition a right-of-use asset, representing the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term, and a lease liability, representing the liability to make lease payments. The accounting update also requires that for finance leases, a lessee recognize interest expense on the lease liability, separately from the amortization of the right-of-use asset in the statements of earnings, while for operating leases, such amounts should be recognized as a combined expense. In addition, this accounting update requires expanded disclosures about the nature and terms of lease agreements. The Company has reviewed the new standard and does not expect it to have a material impact to the statement of financial condition or its net capital.
Income Taxes:
The provision for income taxes is computed using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating losses and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates that apply to taxable income in effect for the years in which those tax assets are expected to be realized or settled. We record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.
| 17 |
Uncertain Tax Positions:
We
evaluate tax positions in a two-step process. We first determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained
upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. If a tax position meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold
it is then measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements.
Revenue Recognition:
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires that five basic steps be followed to recognize revenue: (1) a legally enforceable contract that meets criteria standards as to composition and substance is identified; (2) performance obligations relating to provision of goods or services to the customer are identified; (3) the transaction price, with consideration given to any variable, noncash, or other relevant consideration, is determined; (4) the transaction price is allocated to the performance obligations; and (5) revenue is recognized when control of goods or services is transferred to the customer with consideration given, whether that control happens over time or not. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on our management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products and services delivered and the collectability of those amounts. The adoption of ASC 606 did not result in a change to the accounting for any of the in-scope revenue streams; as such, no cumulative effect adjustment was recorded.
The Company generates revenue primarily from: (1) the sale of homes/properties, (2) commissions and fees charged on each real estate services transaction closed by our lead agents or partner agents, and (3) sales of trading securities using its broker firm, less original purchase cost. Net trading revenues primarily consist of revenues from trading securities earned upon completion of trade, net of any trading fees. A trading is completed when earned and recognized at a point in time, on a trade-date basis, as the Company executes trades. The Company records trading revenue on a net basis, trading sales less original purchase cost. Net realized gains and losses from securities transactions are determined for federal income tax and financial reporting purposes on the first-in, first-out method and represent proceeds on disposition of investments less the cost basis of investments. Sale of real estate properties are recognized at the sales price/amount and the total cost (including cost of rehabilitations) associated with the property acquisition and rehabilitation are classified in Cost of Goods Sold (COGS).
During
three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company did recognized revenue of $
Professional Fees:

Real Estate
Revenue Recognition: Revenue from real estate sales and related costs are recognized at the time of closing primarily by specific identification. We shall account for our leases as follows: (i) for operating leases, revenue is recognized on a straight line basis over the lease term and (ii) for financing leases (x) minimum lease payments to be received plus the estimated value of the property at the end of the lease are considered the gross investment in the lease and (y) unearned income, representing the difference between gross investment and actual cost of the leased property, is amortized to income over the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment in the lease. We have no real estate sales in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021
Alpharidge’s Entrepreneurship Development Initiative (EDI)
EDI Program Summary
In April of 2021, Alpharidge launched its Entrepreneurship Development Initiative which entails: (1) Portfolio – acquiring OTC trading shells with stop signs and cleaning them up to become Pink Current, then merging them with emerging businesses controlled by Alpharidge-trained entrepreneurs; and (2) Custodianship – use the custodianship process in Nevada and Delaware to acquire custodianship of abandoned OTC-trading shells, clean them up to become Pink Current, then merging them with emerging businesses controlled by Alpharidge-trained entrepreneurs.
To
launch its Entrepreneurship Development Initiative, Alpharidge Capital, LLC drew $
EDI Long-Term Goals
Alpharidge Capital LLC anticipates its Entrepreneurship Development to be an ongoing business. It expects to generate income and expense cost related to this line of business.
| 19 |
Accounting and Reporting for EDI
Costs are accumulated by shells as follows: (1) legal cost to petition court for custodianship of an abandoned shell; (2) State taxes and fees to revive or reinstate company into good standing; (3) payment to Transfer agents to clear outstanding balance; and (4) fees paid to consultants, SEC and OTC Market group for systems access and compliance reporting. The total expenses attracted by each custodianship or portfolio investments are itemized to the named shell/investment for better cost-recovery analysis. Total accumulated fees are expensed at the time each shell is sold. As of September 30, 2021, Alpharidge has sold two such shells and expensed the total accumulated costs related to each shell sold.
The initial equity investment required by the State Statute to be eligible to seek custodianship of each target is accounted for at cost and booked into an assets account classified as “Investment Entrepreneurship Devpt.” Each of these shells is available to be sold within 12 months.
As at the date of this report, Alpharidge Capital has successfully cleaned 21 of the 35 shells; paid all the most of the State’s minimum tax and fees for reinstatement and revival; cleared most of the outstanding balances with the respective shell’s Transfer Agents; brought the 21 into compliance with the minimum reporting requirements using the alternative reporting systems available through the OTC Market Groups systems. The remaining 14 are waiting for access to the Edgar filing systems to start making necessary report available to meet the requirements. Of those 21, Alpharidge Capital has executed definite agreements to sell two of the shells for profit. In addition, except for minor disagreements of a unique merger clause that is of particular interest to Alpharidge, agreements for the sale of additional three shells are almost complete. Alpharidge is also incompliance with the Nevada court custodianship process reporting requirements.
As
of September 30, 2021, total value of Entrepreneurship Development was $
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The
Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of its cash and cash equivalents.
The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions of high credit worthiness. The Company maintains cash balances
at financial institutions within the United States which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)
up to limits of approximately $
The cost of equity instruments issued to non-employees in return in accordance with ASC 505-50 “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” for goods and services is measured by the fair value of the goods or services received or the measurement date fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is the more readily determinable. Measurement date for non-employees is the earlier of performance commitment date or the completion of services. The cost of employee services received in exchange for equity instruments is based on the grant date fair value of the equity instruments issued in accordance with ASC 718 “Compensation - Stock Compensation.”

Net Loss per Share Calculation:
Basic net loss per common share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Dilutive earnings per share include the effect of any potentially dilutive debt or equity under the treasury stock method, if including such instruments is dilutive, assuming all dilutive potential common shares were issued. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. The Company’s diluted earnings (loss) per share is the same as the basic earnings/loss per share for the period January 1, 2021 to September 30, 2021, as there are no potential shares outstanding that would have a dilutive effect.

NOTE 9. INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A full valuation allowance is established against all net deferred tax assets As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 based on estimates of recoverability. While the Company has optimistic plans for its business strategy, it determined that such a valuation allowance was necessary given the current and expected near term losses and the uncertainty with respect to its ability to generate sufficient profits from its business model.
We did not provide any current or deferred US federal income tax provision or benefit for any of the periods presented in these financial statements because we have accumulated substantial operating losses over the years. When it is more likely than not, that a tax asset cannot be realized through future income, we must record an allowance against any future potential future tax benefit. We have provided a full valuation allowance against the net deferred tax asset, consisting of net operating loss carry forwards, because management has determined that it is more likely than not that we will not earn income sufficient to realize the deferred tax assets during the carry forward periods.
The Company has not taken a tax position that, if challenged, would have a material effect on the financial statements for the periods ended June 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020 as defined under ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” We did not recognize any adjustment to the liability for uncertain tax position and therefore did not record any adjustment to the beginning balance of the accumulated deficit on the balance sheet.

NOTE 10. RECENTLY ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
ASU 2019-12 — In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2019- 12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The amendments in ASU 2019-12 simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740, Income Taxes. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning October 1, 2021, with early adoption permitted. The transition requirements are dependent upon each amendment within this update and will be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
| 26 |
ASU 2016-13 — In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which amends FASB ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. In addition, in May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, Targeted Transition Relief, which updates FASB ASU 2016-13. These ASU’s require financial assets measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount to be collected and broadens the information, including forecasted information incorporating more timely information, that an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured. These ASU’s are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Most of our financial assets are excluded from the requirements of this standard as they are measured at fair value or are subject to other accounting standards. In addition, certain of our other financial assets are short-term in nature and therefore are not likely to be subject to significant credit losses beyond what is already recorded under current accounting standards. As a result, we currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurements, which amends FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. This ASU eliminates, modifies and adds various disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Certain disclosures are required to be applied using a retrospective approach and others using a prospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. The various disclosure requirements being eliminated, modified or added are not significant to us. As a result, we currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That is a Service Contract, which amends FASB ASC Subtopic 350-40, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software. This ASU adds certain disclosure requirements related to implementation costs incurred for internal-use software and cloud computing arrangements. The amendment aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments in this ASU should be applied either using a retrospective or prospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. We currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15 on “Presentation of Financial Statements Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) – Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”. Currently, there is no guidance in U.S. GAAP about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. The amendments in this update provide such guidance. In doing so, the amendments are intended to reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures. The amendments require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards. Specifically, the amendments (1) provide a definition of the term substantial doubt, (2) require an evaluation every reporting period including interim periods, (3) provide principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans, (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’s plans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). The amendments in this update are effective for public and nonpublic entities for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. We currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
| 27 |
In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-01, “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” This ASU clarifies that the scope of ASU No. 2011-11, “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” applies only to derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse purchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset in accordance with specific criteria contained in FASB Accounting Standards Codification or subject to a master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after January 1, 2013. We currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” The ASU adds new disclosure requirements for items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component and their corresponding effect on net income. The ASU is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013. We currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued ASU No. 2013-04, “Liabilities (Topic 405): Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date.” This ASU addresses the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of certain obligations resulting from joint and several arrangements including debt arrangements, other contractual obligations, and settled litigation and judicial rulings. The ASU is effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. We currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-05, “Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity.” This ASU addresses the accounting for the cumulative translation adjustment when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business within a foreign entity. The guidance outlines the events when cumulative translation adjustments should be released into net income and is intended by FASB to eliminate some disparity in current accounting practice. This ASU is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. We currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-07, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205): Liquidation Basis of Accounting.” The amendments require an entity to prepare its financial statements using the liquidation basis of accounting when liquidation is imminent. Liquidation is imminent when the likelihood is remote that the entity will return from liquidation and either (a) a plan for liquidation is approved by the person or persons with the authority to make such a plan effective and the likelihood is remote that the execution of the plan will be blocked by other parties or (b) a plan for liquidation is being imposed by other forces (for example, involuntary bankruptcy). If a plan for liquidation was specified in the entity’s governing documents from the entity’s inception (for example, limited-life entities), the entity should apply the liquidation basis of accounting only if the approved plan for liquidation differs from the plan for liquidation that was specified at the entity’s inception. The amendments require financial statements prepared using the liquidation basis of accounting to present relevant information about an entity’s expected resources in liquidation by measuring and presenting assets at the amount of the expected cash proceeds from liquidation. The entity should include in its presentation of assets any items it had not previously recognized under U.S. GAAP but that it expects to either sell in liquidation or use in settling liabilities (for example, trademarks). The amendments are effective for entities that determine liquidation is imminent during annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013, and interim reporting periods therein. We currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
| 28 |
We have reviewed all the recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements. Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements. As new accounting pronouncements are issued, we will adopt those that are applicable under the circumstances.
NOTE 11. INVESTMENT SECURITIES (TRADING)
Investment
Investments and securities purchased, not yet sold consist of equities, bonds, bank debt and other corporate obligations, all of which are reported at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets. These investments are considered trading securities. In addition, our Investment segment has certain derivative transactions which are discussed below in “Financial Instruments.”
Investment Securities (Trading): The Company applied the fair value accounting treatment for trading securities per ASC 320, with unrealized gains and losses recorded in net income each period. Debt securities classified as trading should be measured at fair value in the currency in which the debt securities are denominated and remeasured into the investor’s functional currency using the spot exchange rate at the balance sheet date.
Trading securities are treated using the fair value method, whereby the value of the securities on the company’s balance sheet is equivalent to their current market value. These securities will be recorded in the current assets section under the Investment Securities account and will be offset in the shareholder’s equity section under the unrealized proceeds from sale of short-term investments” account. The Short Term Investments account amount represents the current market value of the securities, and the “Unrealized Proceeds From Sale of Short Term Investments” account represents the cash proceeds that the company would receive if it were to sell the investments at the end of the specified accounting period.

Business Overview
Video River Networks, Inc. (“NIHK,” “PubCo” or “Company”), previously known as Nighthawk Systems Inc., a Nevada corporation, used to be a provider of wireless and IP-based control solutions for the utility and hospitality industries. On October 29, 2019, Video River Networks, Inc. sold one (1) Special 2019 series A preferred share (one preferred share is convertible 150,000,000 share of common stocks) of the company for an agreed upon purchase price to Community Economic Development Capital LLC, (“CED Capital”) a California limited liability company CED. The Special preferred share controls 60% of the company’s total voting rights and thus, gave to CED Capital the controlling vote power to control and dominate the affairs of the company theretofor. Upon the closing of the transaction, the business of CED Capital was merged into the Company and CED Capital became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
Following the completion of above mentioned transactions, the Company added real estate operations to its business model and started devoting capital to real estate holding operations for specialized assets including, affordable housing, opportunity zones properties, medical real estate investments, industrial and commercial real estate, and other real estate related services.
On June 10, 2020, the Company filed Form 10-12g, General Form for Registration of Securities, which became effective on August 10, 2020, and as a result, the Company is required to file all required SEC forms since August 10, 2020.
| 32 |
On September 15, 2020, the Company spun-off its specialty real estate holding business to an operating subsidiary and then pivot back to being a technology company.
Subsequent to the above spinoff, the Company has now returned back to its original technology-focused businesses of Power Controls, Battery Technology, Wireless Technology, and Residential utility meters and remote, mission-critical devices in addition to a primary focus of building a portfolio businesses and assets and operations that source, design, develop, manufacture and distribute affordable, high-performance fully electric vehicles in North America.
Going forward, the Company intends to focus its business model to operate and manage a portfolio of Electric Vehicles, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotics (“EV-AI-ML-R”) assets, businesses and operations in addition to its Power Controls, Battery Technology, Wireless Technology, and Residential utility meters and remote, mission-critical devices businesses in North America.
Most Recent Addition to Our Business and Organization
Alpharidge’s Entrepreneurship Development Initiative
In April of 2021, Alpharidge launched its Entrepreneurship Development Initiative which entails: (1) Portfolio – acquiring OTC trading shells with stop signs and cleaning them up to become Pink Current, then merging them with emerging businesses controlled by Alpharidge-trained entrepreneurs; and (2) Custodianship – use the custodianship process in Nevada and Delaware to acquire custodianship of abandoned OTC-trading shells, clean them up to become Pink Current, then merging them with emerging businesses controlled by Alpharidge-trained entrepreneurs.
On April 22, 2021, Alpharidge retained a Nevada based Attorney to petition for custodianship of Mondial Ventures, Inc. Alpharidge later lost the attempt and expensed all related cost as Professional fees – legal. On May 5, 2021, Alpharidge purchase from the open market, Labwire, Inc., (LBWR) and Waypoint Biomedical, Inc., both of which it has brought Pink Current. As at the date of this reports, Alpharidge’ Entrepreneurship Development Initiative Portfolio has bought also purchase Nano Mobile Healthcare, Inc. to make it 3 shells. The Custodianship has petitioned for MNVN, HMLA, TONR, ECMH, ABWN, FPMI, NTGL, CGUD, ICOA, SRBT, USWF, NWTT, USBC, WRMA, WWRL, HERF, NRCD, TGMR, ITRX, AFFN, UTDE, AOBI, SRCX, ADCV, DVFI, APWL, CIVX, NHLG, ILIM, CCWF, TMXN, MNDP, JPEX, SVLT, MTEI, CAMG, CDBT, ERGO, NOUV, ICNM, PRDL, OCLG, ILST and FCGD, altogether 44 petitions filed within 8 weeks. Of the 44, Alpharidge lost, walked-away, or withdrew from 9 petitions.” Cost related to the successful petitions were capitalized on the Company’s balance sheet as “Entrepreneurship Development” and those related to failed petitions were expensed in the period incurred as “Professional Fees - legal.”
Alpharidge Capital LLC anticipates its Entrepreneurship Development to be an ongoing business. It expects to generate income and expense cost related to this line of business.
The initial equity investments required by the State Statute to be eligible to seek custodianship of each target is booked into an assets account classified as “Entrepreneurship Capital” and the expenses attracted by each custodianship or portfolio investments is itemized to the named investment for better cost-recovery analysis. Each of these shells is available to be sold within 12 months.
| 33 |
As at the date of this report, Alpharidge Capital has successfully cleaned 21 of the 35 shells; paid all the most of the State’s minimum tax and fees for reinstatement and revival; cleared most of the outstanding balances with the respective shell’s Transfer Agents; brought the 21 into compliance with the minimum reporting requirements using the alternative reporting systems available through the OTC Market Groups systems. Of those 21, Alpharidge Capital has executed definite agreements to sell two of the shells for profit. In addition, except for minor disagreements of a unique merger clause that is of particular interest to Alpharidge, agreements for the sale of additional three shells are almost complete. Alpharidge is also incompliance with the Nevada court custodianship process reporting requirements.
Crypto Currency Mining Operation
During the period between March 3 to March 16 2021, the Company tried unsuccessfully, to acquire Bitcentro/Buzzmehome’s CryptoCurrency mining operations in Canada for $500,000 in cash. The deal fell through because of misunderstanding between parties as to the timing and duration of due diligence period.
After the failed acquisition attempt, the Company contracted with Brady Fernandes, a Los Angeles resident who claimed expertise in the crypto mining industry. The Company paid Brady $9,200 to commence the project of helping the company to build out its own inhouse cryptocurrency mining farm. Brady has commenced build our first rig and has also ordered the necessary equipment to add rigs to our crypto currency mining farm. Crypto Currency Mining Operation is already generating revenue.
We have dedicated a line-item, “Crypto Currency Mining Rigs,” on our balance to track all our investments in the Crypto Currency Mining Operation. We plan to build out a fully operating farm in California, using solar energy to mitigate the high cost of energy in California.
Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”)
We endeavor to provide a richly diverse work environment that employs the highest performers, cultivates the best ideas and creates the widest possible platform for success. We are committed to elevating and supporting the core values of diversity and inclusion, “Total Well-Being” (which brings together physical, financial, career, social and community well-being into a cohesive whole), and environmental, social and governance (“ESG”), which includes sustainability and social responsibility, by actively engaging in these areas. Each member of the executive team maintains an annual goal related to these core values, which is evaluated by the Company’s Board of Trustees. Our goal is to create and sustain an inclusive environment where diversity will thrive, employees will want to work and tenants will want. We are committed to providing our employees with encouragement, guidance, time and resources to learn and apply the skills required to succeed in their jobs. We provide many classroom and on-line training courses to assist our employees in interacting with prospects and tenants as well as extensive training for our customer service specialists in maintaining our properties and improvements, equipment and appliances. We actively promote from within and many senior corporate and property leaders have risen from entry level or junior positions. We monitor our employees’ engagement by surveying them annually and find most employees say they are proud to work at the Company, value one another as colleagues, believe in our mission and values and feel their skills meet their job requirements.
| 34 |
We have a commitment to sustainability and consider the environmental impacts of our business activities. Sustainability and social responsibility are key drivers of our focus on creating the best properties for tenants operate, work and play. Our portfolio of Electric Vehicles, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotics (“EV-AI-ML-R”) assets, businesses and operations in addition to Power Controls, Battery Technology, Wireless Technology, and Residential utility meters and remote, mission-critical devices businesses in North America are both environmentally friendly and sustainable.
Moreover, we have a dedicated in-house team that initiates and applies sustainable practices in all aspects of our business, including investment activities, development, property operations and property management activities. With its high density, multifamily housing is, by its nature, an environmentally friendly property type. Our recent acquisition and development activities have been primarily concentrated in pedestrian-friendly urban and close-in suburban locations near public transportation. When developing and renovating our properties, we strive to reduce energy and water consumption by investing in energy saving technology while positively impacting the experience of our tenants and the value of our assets. We continue to implement a combination of irrigation, lighting, HVAC and renewable energy improvements at our properties that will reduce energy and water consumption. For 2020, we continue to have an express company-wide goal for Total Well-Being, which includes enhanced ESG efforts. Employees, including our executives, will have their performance against our various Total Well - Being goals evaluated as part of our annual performance review process
Our corporate office is located at 370 Amapola Ave., Suite 200A, Torrance, California 90501. Our telephone number is (310) 895-1839. As of September 30, 2021, we had no W-2 employee, but three of our officers and directors provide all the services without pay until we formally enter into employment contract with them as full-time employees.
Basis of Presentation
The following discussion and analysis are based on Video River Networks’ financial statements contained in this Current Report, which we have prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. Accompanying financial statements for Video River Networks for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 include a summary of our significant accounting policies and should be read in conjunction with the discussion below. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments necessary to present fairly the results of operations for such periods have been included in these audited financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, in which the Company has a controlling voting interest and entities consolidated under the variable interest entities (“VIE”) provisions of ASC 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”). Inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
| 35 |
ASC 810 requires that the investor with the controlling financial interest should consolidate the investee/affiliate. ASC 810-10 requires that an equity interest investor consolidates a VIE when it retains an investment in the entity, is considered a variable interest investor in the entity, and is the primary beneficiary of the entity. An investor in a VIE is a “variable interest beneficiary” when, per an arrangement’s governing documents, the investor will absorb a portion of the VIE’s expected losses or will receive a portion of the entity’s “residual returns.” The variable interest beneficiary retaining a controlling financial interest in the VIE is designated as its “primary beneficiary” and must consolidate the VIE. A variable interest beneficiary retains a “controlling financial interest” in a VIE when that beneficiary retains the power to direct the activities of the VIE that have the greatest influence over the VIE’s economic performance and retains an obligation to absorb the VIE’s significant losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Based on the ASC 810 test above, Video River Network, Inc. is the primary beneficiary of Kid Castle Educational Corporation (“VIE-2”), Kid Castle Educational Corporation is the primary beneficiary of GiveMePower Corporation (the “VIE-1”) because Video River retained a controlling financial interest in the VIE-2 and has the power to direct the activities of the VIE-2, having the greatest influence over the VIE-2’s economic performance and retains an obligation to absorb the VIE-2’s significant losses and the right to determine and receive benefits from the VIE-2. Similarly, Kid Castle Educational Corporation is the primary beneficiary of GiveMePower Corporation (the “VIE-1”). Kid Castle retained a controlling financial interest in the VIE-1 and has the power to direct the activities of the VIE-1, having the greatest influence over the VIE-1’s economic performance and retains an obligation to absorb the VIE-1’s significant losses and the right to determine and receive benefits from the VIE-1.
Because GiveMePower Corporation is 88% controlled by Kid Castle Educational Corporation, the consolidation rule requires that the Revenue, Assets and Liabilities recognized and disclosed on the financial statements of GiveMePower Corporation are also recognized and disclosed on the financial statements of Kid Castle Educational Corporation pursuant to ASC 810.
Our Business Objectives and Growth Strategies
General – Electric Vehicles (EV) Business
The Company’s Electric Vehicles (EV) business model is a newly created business model created in the 3rd quarter of 2020, for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar Business acquisition with one or more EV manufacturers and related businesses, which we refer to throughout this prospectus as our EV Business acquisition plan. We have not selected any specific EV Business acquisition target and we have not, nor has anyone on our behalf, initiated any substantive discussions, directly or indirectly, with any EV Business acquisition target. We have generated no revenues to date and we do not expect that we will generate operating revenues at the earliest until we consummate our initial EV Business acquisition. While we may pursue an acquisition opportunity in the Electric Vehicles, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotics (“EV-AI-ML-R”) industry or sector, we intend to focus on: (1) businesses that source, design, develop, manufacture and distribute high-performance, affordable and fully electric vehicles; and (2) businesses that design, manufacture, install and sell Power Controls, Battery Technology, Wireless Technology, and Residential utility meters and remote, mission-critical devices mostly engineered using Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotic technologies.
| 36 |
Our management team is comprised of two business professionals that have a broad range of experience in executive leadership, strategy development and implementation, operations management, financial policy and corporate transactions. Our management team members have worked together in the past, at Goldstein Franklin, Inc. and other firms as executive leaders and senior managers spearheading turnarounds, rollups and industry-focused consolidation while generating shareholder value for many for investors and stakeholders.
We believe that our management team is well positioned to identify acquisition opportunities in the marketplace. Our management team’s industry expertise, principal investing transaction experience and business acumen will make us an attractive partner and enhance our ability to complete a successful Business acquisition. Our management believes that its ability to identify and implement value creation initiatives has been an essential driver of past performance and will remain central to its differentiated acquisition strategy.
Although our management team is well positioned and have experience to identify acquisition opportunities in the marketplace, past performance of our management team is not a guarantee either (i) of success with respect to any EV Business acquisition we may consummate or (ii) that we will be able to identify a suitable candidate for our initial EV Business acquisition. You should not rely on the historical performance record of our management team as indicative of our future performance. Additionally, in the course of their respective careers, members of our management team have been involved in businesses and deals that were unsuccessful. Our officers and directors have not had management experience with EV companies in the past.
General – Real Estate Business
Our real estate operations has two lines of business: (1) promote and preserve affordable housing and economic development across urban neighborhoods in the United States; and (2) acquire, hold and manage specialized assets. To achieve our objectives, we plan to acquire, own, renovate, develop, redevelop, operate, dispose of, and manage specialized assets including industrial and commercial real estate, affordable housing and rental property and multi-family properties both on our own and through our investment management platform. We focus primarily on commercial and multifamily properties located in urban and high-density suburban markets throughout the United States. Our real estate platform is internally managed with primarily focused on: (1) the acquisition, ownership and management of specialized industrial properties; and (2) ownership, operation and development of multi-family affordable housing properties.
Our Business Plan
Returning back to its foremost business model of technology focused operations, Video River Networks, Inc. (the “Company”), a technology firm intends to operate and manage a portfolio of Electric Vehicles, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotics (“EV-AI-ML-R”) assets, businesses and operations in North America. The Company’s current targeted portfolio businesses include those that source, design, develop, manufacture and distribute high-performance, affordable and fully electric vehicles; and design, manufacture, install and sell Power Controls, Battery Technology, Wireless Technology, and Residential utility meters and remote, mission-critical devices mostly engineered using Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotic technologies.
Our current technology-focused business model was a result of our board resolution on September 15, 2020 to spin-in our specialty real estate holding business to an operating subsidiary and then pivot back to being a technology company. The Company has now returned back to its original technology-focused businesses of Power Controls, Battery Technology, Wireless Technology, and Residential utility meters and remote, mission-critical devices. In addition to above list, the Company intends to spread its wings into the Electric Vehicles, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotics (“EV-AI-ML-R”) businesses/markets, targeting acquisition, ownership and operation of acquired EV-AI-ML-R businesses or portfolio of EV-AI-ML-R businesses.
| 37 |
Video River Networks, Inc., prior to September 15, 2020, used to be a specialty real estate holding company, focuses on the acquisition, ownership, and management of specialized industrial properties. The Company’s real estate business objective is to maximize stockholder returns through a combination of (1) distributions to our stockholders, (2) sustainable long-term growth in cash flows from increased rents, which we hope to pass on to stockholders in the form of increased distributions, and (3) potential long-term appreciation in the value of our properties from capital gains upon future sale. As a real estate holding company, the Company is engaged primarily in the ownership, operation, management, acquisition, development and redevelopment of predominantly multifamily housing and specialized industrial properties in the United States.
Having partially freed itself from the day-to-day operation of the real estate operations, the Company now returns to its technology root with a primary purpose of acquiring Electric Vehicles manufacturer or doing a joint venture (JV) with Electric Vehicles businesses that source, design, develop, manufacture and distribute high-performance, affordable and fully electric vehicles; and design, manufacture, install and sell Power Controls, Battery Technology, Wireless Technology, and Residential utility meters and remote, mission-critical devices mostly engineered using Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotic technologies.
Business Strategy and Deal Origination
We have not finalized an acquisition target yet, but making progress in identifying several potential candidates from which we intend to pick those that meet our criteria for acquisition. Our acquisition and value creation strategy will be to identify, acquire and, after our initial EV Business acquisition, build an EV company that source, design, develop, manufacture and distribute high-performance, affordable and fully electric vehicles that suit the experience of our management team and can benefit from their operational expertise. Our Business acquisition strategy will leverage our management team’s network of potential transaction sources, where we believe a combination of our relationships, knowledge and experience could effect a positive transformation or augmentation of existing businesses to improve their overall value proposition.
Our management team’s objective is to generate attractive returns and create value for our shareholders by applying our disciplined strategy of underwriting intrinsic worth and implementing changes after making an acquisition to unlock value. While our approach is focused on the EV-AI-ML-R industries where we have differentiated insights, we also have successfully driven change through a comprehensive value creation plan framework. We favor opportunities where we can accelerate the target’s growth initiatives. As a management team we have successfully applied this approach over approximately 16 years and have deployed capital successfully in a range of market cycles.
We plan to utilize the network and Finance industry experience of our Chief Executive Officer and our management team in seeking an initial EV Business acquisition and employing our Business acquisition strategy described below. Our CEO is a top financial professional with designations that include, CPA, CMA, and CFM. He’s very knowledgeable in the fields of corporate law, real estate, lending, turnarounds and restructuring. Over the course of their careers, the members of our management team have developed a broad network of contacts and corporate relationships that we believe will serve as a useful source of EV acquisition opportunities. This network has been developed through our management team’s extensive experience:
| ● | investing in and operating a wide range of businesses; |
| 38 |
| ● | growing brands through repositioning, increasing household penetration and geographic expansion; expanding into new distribution channels, such as e-Commerce, in an increasingly omni-channel world; | |
| ● | identifying lessons learned and applying solutions across product portfolios and channels; | |
| ● | sourcing, structuring, acquiring, operating, developing, growing, financing and selling businesses; | |
| ● | developing relationships with sellers, financing providers, advisors and target management teams; and | |
| ● | executing transformational transactions in a wide range of businesses under varying economic and financial market conditions. |
In addition, drawing on their extensive investing and operating experience, our management team anticipates tapping four major sources of deal flow:
| ● | directly identifying potentially attractive undervalued situations through primary research into EV industries and companies; | |
| ● | receiving information from our management team’s global contacts about a potentially attractive situation; | |
| ● | leads from investment bankers and advisors regarding businesses seeking a combination or added value that matches our strengths; and | |
| ● | inbound opportunities from a company or existing stakeholders seeking a combination, including corporate divestitures. |
We expect this network will provide our management team with a robust flow of EV acquisition opportunities. In addition, we anticipate that target EV Business candidates will be brought to our attention by various unaffiliated sources, which may include investment market participants, private equity groups, investment banking firms, consultants, accounting firms and large business enterprises. Upon completion of this offering, members of our management team will communicate with their network of relationships to articulate the parameters for our search for a target company and a potential Business acquisition and begin the process of pursuing and reviewing potential leads.
Acquisition/Business acquisition Criteria
Consistent with this strategy, we have identified the following general criteria and guidelines that we believe are important in evaluating prospective target EV businesses. We will use these criteria and guidelines in evaluating acquisition opportunities. While we intend to acquire EV companies that we believe exhibit one or more of the following characteristics, we may decide to enter into our initial EV Business acquisition with a target EV business that does not meet these criteria and guidelines. We intend to acquire EV companies that source, design, develop, manufacture and distribute high-performance, affordable and fully electric vehicles:
| ● | have potential for significant growth, or can act as an attractive EV acquisition platform, following our initial EV Business acquisition; | |
| ● | have demonstrated market segment, category and/or cost leadership and would benefit from our extensive network and insights; | |
| ● | provide operational platform and/or infrastructure for variety of EV models and/or services, with the potential for revenue, market share, footprint and/or distribution improvements; | |
| ● | are at the forefront of EV evolution around changing consumer trends; | |
| ● | offer marketing, pricing and product mix optimization opportunities across distribution channels; | |
| ● | are fundamentally sound companies that could be underperforming their potential and/or offer compelling value; |
| 39 |
| ● | offer the opportunity for our management team to partner with established target management teams or business owners to achieve long-term strategic and operational excellence, or, in some cases, where our access to accomplished executives and the skills of the management of identified targets warrants replacing or supplementing existing management; | |
| ● | exhibit unrecognized value or other characteristics, desirable returns on capital and a need for capital to achieve the company’s growth strategy, that we believe have been misevaluated by the marketplace based on our analysis and due diligence review; and | |
| ● | will offer an attractive risk-adjusted return for our shareholders. |
These criteria are not intended to be exhaustive. Any evaluation relating to the merits of a particular initial EV Business acquisition may be based, to the extent relevant, on these general guidelines as well as other considerations, factors and criteria that our management may deem relevant. In the event that we decide to enter into our initial EV Business acquisition with a target EV Business that does not meet the above criteria and guidelines, we will disclose that the target EV Business does not meet the above criteria in our shareholder communications related to our initial EV Business acquisition.
Acquisition/Business acquisition Process
In evaluating a prospective target EV business, we expect to conduct a thorough due diligence review that will encompass, among other things, meetings with incumbent management and employees, document reviews, inspection of EV manufacturing facilities, as well as a review of financial and other information. We will also utilize our operational and capital allocation experience.
In order to execute our business strategy, we intend to:
Assemble a team of EV industry and financial experts: For each potential transaction, we intend to assemble a team of EV industry and financial experts to supplement our management’s efforts to identify and resolve key issues facing a target EV Business. We intend to construct an operating and financial plan that optimizes the potential to grow shareholder value. With extensive experience investing in both healthy and underperforming businesses, we expect that our management will be able to demonstrate to the target EV business and its stakeholders that we have the resources and expertise to lead the combined company through complex and potentially turbulent market conditions and provide the strategic and operational direction necessary to grow the business in order to maximize cash flows and improve the overall strategic prospects for the company.
Conduct rigorous research and analysis: Performing disciplined, fundamental research and analysis is core to our strategy, and we intend to conduct extensive due diligence to evaluate the impact that a transaction may have on a target EV Business.
Business acquisition driven by trend analysis: We intend to understand the underlying purchase and industry behaviors that would enhance a potential transaction’s attractiveness. We have extensive experience in identifying and analyzing evolving industry and consumer trends, and we expect to perform macro as well as bottoms-up analysis on consumer and industry trends.
Acquire the target company at an attractive price relative to our view of intrinsic value: Combining rigorous analysis as well as input from industry and financial experts, our management team intends to develop its view of the intrinsic value of a potential Business acquisition. In doing so, our management team will evaluate future cash flow potential, relative industry valuation metrics and precedent transactions to inform its view of intrinsic value, with the intention of creating a Business acquisition at an attractive price relative to its view of intrinsic value.
| 40 |
Implement operational and financial structuring opportunities: Our management team has the ability to structure and execute a Business acquisition that will establish a capital structure that will support the growth in shareholder value and give it the flexibility to grow organically and/or through strategic acquisitions. We intend to also develop and implement strategies and initiatives to improve the business’ operational and financial performance and create a platform for growth.
Seek strategic acquisitions and divestitures to further grow shareholder value: Our management team intends to analyze the strategic direction of the company, including evaluating potential non-core asset sales to create financial and/or operational flexibility for the company to engage in organic and/or inorganic growth. Our management team intends to evaluate strategic opportunities and chart a clear path to take the EV business to the next level after the Business acquisition.
After the initial EV Business acquisition, our management team intends to apply a rigorous approach to enhancing shareholder value, including evaluating the experience and expertise of incumbent management and making changes where appropriate, examining opportunities for revenue enhancement, cost savings, operating efficiencies and strategic acquisitions and divestitures and developing and implementing corporate strategies and initiatives to improve profitability and long-term value. In doing so, our management team anticipates evaluating corporate governance, opportunistically accessing capital markets and other opportunities to enhance liquidity, identifying acquisition and divestiture opportunities and properly aligning management and board incentives with growing shareholder value. Our management team intends to pursue post-merger initiatives through participation on the board of directors, through direct involvement with company operations and/or calling upon a stable of former managers and advisors when necessary.
Strategic Approach to Management. We intend to approach the management of a company as strategy consultants would. This means that we approach business with performance-based metrics based on strategic and operational goals, both at the overall company level and for specific divisions and functions.
Corporate Governance and Oversight. Active participation as board members can include many activities ranging from conducting monthly or quarterly board meetings to chairing standing (compensation, audit or investment committees) or special committees, replacing or supplementing company management teams when necessary, adding outside directors with industry expertise which may or may not include members of our own board of directors, providing guidance on strategic and operational issues including revenue enhancement opportunities, cost savings, brand repositioning, operating efficiencies, reviewing and testing annual budgets, reviewing acquisitions and divestitures and assisting in the accessing of capital markets to further optimize financing costs and fund expansion.
Direct Operational Involvement. Our management team members, through ongoing board service, intend to actively engage with company management. These activities may include: (i) establishing an agenda for management and instilling a sense of accountability and urgency; (ii) aligning the interest of management with growing shareholder value; (iii) providing strategic planning and management consulting assistance, particularly in regards to re-invested capital and growth capital in order to grow revenues, achieve more optimal operating scale or eliminate costs; (iv) establishing measurable key performance metrics; and (v) complementing product lines and brands while growing market share in attractive market categories. These skill sets will be integral to shareholder value creation.
M&A Expertise and Add-On Acquisitions. Our management team has expertise in identifying, acquiring and integrating synergistic, margin-enhancing and transformational businesses. We intend to, wherever possible, utilize M&A as a strategic tool to strengthen the financial profile of an EV business we acquire, as well as its competitive positioning. We would seek to enter into accretive Business acquisitions where our management team or an acquired company’s management team can seamlessly transition to working together as one organization and team.
| 41 |
Access to Portfolio Company Managers and Advisors. Through their combined 32+ year history of investing in and controlling businesses, our management team members have developed strong professional relationships with former company managers and advisors. When appropriate, we intend to bring in outside directors, managers or consultants to assist in corporate governance and operational turnaround activities. The use of supplemental advisors should provide additional resources to management to address time intensive issues that may be delaying an organization from realizing its full potential shareholder returns.
Our acquisition criteria, due diligence processes and value creation methods are not intended to be exhaustive. Any evaluation relating to the merits of a particular initial EV Business acquisition may be based, to the extent relevant, on these general guidelines as well as other considerations, factors and criteria that our management may deem relevant. In the event that we decide to enter into our initial EV Business acquisition with a target EV Business that does not meet the above criteria and guidelines, we will disclose that the target EV Business does not meet the above criteria in our shareholder communications related to our initial EV Business acquisition, which, as discussed in this prospectus, would be in the form of tender offer documents or proxy solicitation materials that we would file with the SEC.
Alpharidge’s Entrepreneurship Development Initiative
In April of 2021, Alpharidge launched its Entrepreneurship Development Initiative which entails: (1) Portfolio – acquiring OTC trading shells with stop signs and cleaning them up to become Pink Current, then merging them with emerging businesses controlled by Alpharidge-trained entrepreneurs; and (2) Custodianship – use the custodianship process in Nevada and Delaware to acquire custodianship of abandoned OTC-trading shells, clean them up to become Pink Current, then merging them with emerging businesses controlled by Alpharidge-trained entrepreneurs.
On April 22, 2021, Alpharidge retained a Nevada based Attorney to petition for custodianship of Mondial Ventures, Inc. Alpharidge later lost the attempt and expensed all related cost as Professional fees – legal.

Sourcing of Potential Business acquisition Targets
We believe that the operational and transactional experience of our management team and their respective affiliates, and the relationships they have developed as a result of such experience, will provide us with a substantial number of potential Business acquisition targets. These individuals and entities have developed a broad network of contacts and corporate relationships around the world. This network has grown through sourcing, acquiring and financing businesses and maintaining relationships with sellers, financing sources and target management teams. Our management team members have significant experience in executing transactions under varying economic and financial market conditions. We believe that these networks of contacts and relationships and this experience will provide us with important sources of investment opportunities. In addition, we anticipate that target EV Business candidates may be brought to our attention from various unaffiliated sources, including investment market participants, private equity funds and large business enterprises seeking to divest noncore assets or divisions.
Other Acquisition Considerations
We are not prohibited from pursuing an initial EV Business acquisition with a company that is affiliated with our sponsor, officers or directors. In the event we seek to complete our initial EV Business acquisition with a company that is affiliated with our officers or directors, we, or a committee of independent directors, will obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent firm that commonly renders valuation opinions for the type of company we are seeking to acquire or an independent accounting firm that our initial EV Business acquisition is fair to our company from a financial point of view.
Unless we complete our initial EV Business acquisition with an affiliated entity, or our Board of Directors cannot independently determine the fair market value of the target EV Business or businesses, we are not required to obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm, another independent firm that commonly renders valuation opinions for the type of company we are seeking to acquire or from an independent accounting firm that the price we are paying for a target is fair to our company from a financial point of view. If no opinion is obtained, our shareholders will be relying on the business judgment of our Board of Directors, which will have significant discretion in choosing the standard used to establish the fair market value of the target or targets, and different methods of valuation may vary greatly in outcome from one another. Such standards used will be disclosed in our tender offer documents or proxy solicitation materials, as applicable, related to our initial EV Business acquisition.
Members of our management team may directly or indirectly own our ordinary shares and/or private placement warrants following this offering, and, accordingly, may have a conflict of interest in determining whether a particular target EV Business is an appropriate business with which to effectuate our initial EV Business acquisition. Further, each of our officers and directors may have a conflict of interest with respect to evaluating a particular Business acquisition if the retention or resignation of any such officers and directors was included by a target EV Business as a condition to any agreement with respect to our initial EV Business acquisition.
In the future any of our directors and our officers may have additional, fiduciary or contractual obligations to other entities pursuant to which such officer or director is or will be required to present acquisition opportunities to such entity. Accordingly, subject to his or her fiduciary duties, if any of our officers or directors becomes aware of an acquisition opportunity which is suitable for an entity to which he or she has then current fiduciary or contractual obligations, he or she will need to honor his or her fiduciary or contractual obligations to present such acquisition opportunity to such entity, and only present it to us if such entity rejects the opportunity. We do not believe, however, that any fiduciary duties or contractual obligations of our directors or officers would materially undermine our ability to complete our Business acquisition.
| 43 |
Plan of Operations
While our major focus is to find, acquire and manage an EV business, our real estate portfolio is still alive and must figure in our plan of operation. In the next twelve months, we plan on accelerating our Entrepreneurship Development Initiative and adding the proceeds obtained from the initiative to finance our electric vehicles business plan.
The Company will continue to evaluate its projected expenditures relative to its available cash and to seek additional means of financing in order to satisfy the Company’s working capital and other cash requirements.
Upon completion of the acquisition of an Electric Vehicles manufacturer or doing a joint venture (JV) with Electric Vehicles businesses that source, design, develop, manufacture and distribute high-performance, affordable and fully electric vehicles, our strategy will subsequently include distribution of the electric vehicles and related product lines to retailers and consumers across North America.
Insurance
We carry comprehensive general liability coverage on our properties, with limits of liability customary within the multi-family properties industry to insure against liability claims and related defense costs. We are also insured, with limits of liability customary within the real estate industry, against the risk of direct physical damage in amounts necessary to reimburse us on a replacement cost basis for costs incurred to repair or rebuild each property, including loss of rental income during the reconstruction period.
Our primary lines of insurance coverage are property, general liability and workers’ compensation. We believe that our insurance coverages adequately insure our properties against the risk of loss attributable to fire, earthquake, hurricane, tornado, flood, terrorism and other perils, and adequately insure us against other risk. Our coverage includes deductibles, retentions and limits that are customary in the industry. We have established loss prevention, loss mitigation, claims handling and litigation management procedures to manage our exposure.
Seasonality
Our business has not been, and we do not expect it to become subject to, material seasonal fluctuations.
Employees
We do not have a W-2 employee at the present. Frank Ikechukwu Igwealor, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is our only full-time staff As of September 30, 2021, pending when we could formalize an employment contract for him. In addition to Mr. Igwealor, we have three part-time unpaid staff who helps with bookkeeping and administrative chores. Most of our part-time staff, officers, and directors will devote their time as needed to our business and are expect to devote at least 15 hours per week to our business operations. We plan on formalizing employment contract for those staff currently helping us without pay. Furthermore, in the immediate future, we intend to use independent contractors and consultants to assist in many aspects of our business on an as needed basis pending financial resources being available. We may use independent contractors and consultants once we receive sufficient funding to hire additional employees. Even then, we will principally rely on independent contractors for substantially all of our technical and marketing needs.
| 44 |
The Company has no written employment contract or agreement with any person. Currently, we are not actively seeking additional employees or engaging any consultants through a formal written agreement or contract. Services are provided on an as-needed basis to date. This may change in the event that we are able to secure financing through equity or loans to the Company. As our company grows, we expect to hire more full-time employees.
Plan of Operations
Plan of Operation for the Next Twelve (12) Months
While our major focus is to find, acquire and manage an EV business, our real estate portfolio is still alive and must figure in our plan of operation. In the next twelve months, we plan on accelerating our Entrepreneurship Development Initiative and adding the proceeds obtained from the initiative to finance our electric vehicles business plan.
The Company will continue to evaluate its projected expenditures relative to its available cash and to seek additional means of financing in order to satisfy the Company’s working capital and other cash requirements.
Upon completion of the acquisition of an Electric Vehicles manufacturer or doing a joint venture (JV) with Electric Vehicles businesses that source, design, develop, manufacture and distribute high-performance, affordable and fully electric vehicles, our strategy will subsequently include distribution of the electric vehicles and related product lines to retailers and consumers across North America.
NIHK through CED Capital, currently own no real property.
Using the real properties as collateral, we believe that we could always obtain the capital needed to complete the rehabilitation of these three properties. Although there is no assurance that we would be able to put the property to good use such as renting them to tenants. If we are unable to put them to productive use, we would be forced to sell them and use the money generated from the sales to pay off the loans used to acquire them.
To effectively fund our business plan, we must raise additional capital. But there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise the capital necessary to acquire, own or hold these specialized real properties. Moreover, there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise the capital necessary to execute our business plan and also to acquire, own or hold specialized real properties.
Our operations will be conducted on five platforms comprising of: (Electric Vehicles, (2) Battery Technology, (3) (1) specialized real properties; and (2) affordable housing real estate operation. Within the next twelve months, we intend to use income generated from our three properties to hire employees that would help us to raise capital to build our company.
We intend to implement the following tasks within the next twelve months:
| 1. | Month 1-3: Phase 1 (1-3 months in duration; execute the JV agreement and put it to good use) | ||
| a. | Rollout the SPAC Offering; | ||
| b. | Transform the design of the website to become a marketplace for EV; | ||
| c. | Acquire and consolidate revenue-generating businesses that complement our business plan. | ||
| 2. | Month 3-6 Phase 2 (1-3 months in duration; cost control, process improvements, admin & mngt.). | ||
| a. | Integrate acquired businesses into NIHK’s model – consolidate the management of the businesses including integration of their accounting and finance systems, synchronization of their operating systems, and harmonization of their human resources functions. | ||
| b. | Start selling the SPAC Class B shares that has been registered through an effective S-1 to raise $10 million and use the proceeds to effectuate our business plan. | ||
| c. | Complete and file quarterly reports and other required filings for the quarter | ||
| 45 |
| 3. | Month 6-9: Phase 3 (1-3 months in duration; $5 million in estimated fund receipt) | ||
| a. | Fund the JV and start distribution of EVs; | ||
| b. | Identify, acquire and consolidate revenue-generating businesses that complement our biz plan. | ||
| 4. | Month 9-12: Phase 4 (1-3 months duration; use acquired businesses’ free cash flow for more acquisitions) | ||
| a. | Run the businesses efficiently, giving employees a conducive and friendly workplace and add value to investors and shareholders by identifying and reducing excesses and also identifying and executing growth strategies | ||
| b. | Identify, acquire and consolidate revenue-generating businesses that complement our biz plan. | ||
| 5. | Operating expenses during the twelve months would be as follows: | ||
| a. | For the three months through December 31, 2021, we anticipate to incur general and other operating expenses of $238,000. | ||
| b. | For the twelve months through December 31, 2022 we anticipate to incur additional general and other operating expenses of $928,000. | ||
As noted above, the execution of our current plan of operations requires us to raise significant additional capital immediately. If we are successful in raising capital through the sale of shares offered for sale in this Filing we believe that the Company will have sufficient cash resources to fund its plan of operations for the next twelve months. If we are unable to do so, our ability to continue as a going concern will be in jeopardy, likely causing us to curtail and possibly cease operations.
We continually evaluate our plan of operations discussed above to determine the manner in which we can most effectively utilize our limited cash resources. The timing of completion of any aspect of our plan of operations is highly dependent upon the availability of cash to implement that aspect of the plan and other factors beyond our control. There is no assurance that we will successfully obtain the required capital or revenues, or, if obtained, that the amounts will be sufficient to fund our ongoing operations. The inability to secure additional capital would have a material adverse effect on us, including the possibility that we would have to sell or forego a portion or all of our assets or cease operations. If we discontinue our operations, we will not have sufficient funds to pay any amounts to our stockholders.
Even if we raise additional capital in the near future, if our current business plan is not successfully executed, our ability to fund our biopharmaceutical research and development, or our financial product deployment and services efforts would likely be seriously impaired.
Because our working capital requirements depend upon numerous factors there can be no assurance that our current cash resources will be sufficient to fund our operations. At present, we have no committed external sources of capital, and do not expect any significant product revenues for the foreseeable future. Thus, we will require immediate additional financing to fund future operations. There can be no assurance, however, that we will be able to obtain funds on acceptable terms, if at all.

Revenues — The Company recorded $1,998,489 and $6,040,683 in revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to $29,250 and $1,466,400 for the same period of September 30, 2020.
Operating Expenses — Total operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, was $102,973 and $235,847 as compared to $23,820 and $129,673 in the same period of September 30, 2020, due to increased operating activities during the period ended September 30, 2021.
Net Income — Net income for three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $79,734 and $946,676 as compared to Net Loss of $42,672 and Net Loss of $132,618 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. Net income includes unrealized gain of $(756,928) and $71for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.
OCI - Unrealized Gain or Other Comprehensive Income for three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, was $(756,928) and $71 as compared to Unrealized Loss of $39,359 and $107,187 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. The Unrealized Gain of $(756,928) and $71 were a result of mark-to-market/fair value adjustment to Custodianship as well as Trading Securities for the period.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2021, the Company had a working capital of $244,208 consisting of $218,707 in cash, $37,100 in Trading Securities, minus $11,600 in short-term liabilities.
For the nine months period ended September 30, 2021, the Company generated cash of $998,530 on operating activities, used cash of $2,356,493 on investing activities, and generated cash of $1,575,041 from financing activities, resulting in an increase in total cash of $217,078 and a cash balance of $218,707 for the period. For the nine months period ended September 30, 2020, the Company used cash of $20,320 in operating activities, used cash of $321,498 on investing activities and generated cash of $341,335 from financing activities, resulting in a decrease in cash of $483 and a cash balance of $17 at the end of that period due to discontinuation of business line.
As of September 30, 2021, total Notes Payable to related parties decreased by $84,100 from the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.
As of September 30, 2021, total stockholders’ equity increased to $979,189 from $3,141 as of December 31, 2020. The increase in stockholders’ equity was largely due to the 35 shells acquired by the Company through the State of Nevada custodianship process. As at September 30, 2021, Alpharidge has paid a total of $711,600 as reinstatement and revival fees to the State of Nevada to reinstate and revive the 35 shells.
As of September 30, 2021, the Company had a cash balance of $218,707 (i.e. cash is used to fund operations). The Company does believe our current cash balances will be sufficient to allow us to fund our operating plan for the next twelve months. However, our ability to continue as a going concern is still dependent on us obtaining adequate capital to fund operation or maintaining consecutive quarterly profitability. If we are unable to obtain adequate capital, or maintaining consecutive quarterly profitability, we could be forced to cease operations or substantially curtail its drug development activities. These conditions could raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
| 47 |
Our principal sources of liquidity are: (1) Crypto Currency Mining, (2) Real Estate Sales, (4) Sales of Custodianship Shells, (4) Trading Securities, and (5) Electric Vehicles and battery Technology activities. In the past, we have been generating cash from loans to us by our major shareholder. In order to be able to achieve our strategic goals, we need to further expand our business and implement our business plan. To continue to develop our business plan and generate sales, significant capital has been and will continue to be required. Management intends to fund future operations through private or public equity and/or debt offerings. We continue to engage in preliminary discussions with potential investors and broker-dealers, but no terms have been agreed upon. There can be no assurances, however, that additional funding will be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Any equity financing may be dilutive to existing shareholders. We do not currently have any contractual restrictions on our ability to incur debt and, accordingly we could incur significant amounts of indebtedness to finance operations. Any such indebtedness could contain covenants which would restrict our operations.
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.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The SEC has defined a company’s critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of the company’s financial condition and results of operations, and which require the company to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain.
Based on this definition, we have identified the critical accounting policies and judgments addressed which are described in Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. Although we believe that our estimates, assumptions and judgments are reasonable, they are based upon information presently available. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates under different assumptions, judgments or conditions.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), Rule 13a-15(b), we have carried out an evaluation (the “Evaluation”), under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our management, and the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures As of September 30, 2021. Based upon an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures, our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer has concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective because of the material weaknesses described below, in order to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the SEC and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure (see below for further discussion).We had neither the resources, nor the personnel, to provide an adequate control environment.
| 48 |
Due to our limited resources, the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting continued to exist at June 30,, 2021:
| ● | 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 of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”); | |
| ● | we do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our limited size and early stage nature of operations, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible; however, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals; | |
| ● | we do not have an independent audit committee of our Board of Directors; | |
| ● | insufficient monitoring and review controls over the financial reporting closing process, including the lack of individuals with current knowledge of GAAP that led to the restatement of our previously issued financial statements; and | |
| ● | we continue to outsource the functions of controller on an interim basis to assist us in implementing the necessary financial controls over the financial reporting and the utilization of internal management and staff to effectuate these controls. |
We believe that these material weaknesses primarily related, in part, to our lack of sufficient staff with appropriate training in GAAP and SEC rules and regulations with respect to financial reporting functions, and the lack of robust accounting systems, as well as the lack of sufficient resources to hire such staff and implement these accounting systems.
If and when our financial resources allow, we plan to take a number of actions to correct these material weaknesses including, but not limited to, establishing an audit committee of our Board of Directors comprised of three independent directors, hiring a full-time Chief Financial Officer, adding experienced accounting and financial personnel and retaining third-party consultants to review our internal controls and recommend improvements.
It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of certain events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
| 49 |
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no material changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a- 15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred As of September 30, 2021, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

| Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
| NATURE OF OPERATIONS | 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Video River Networks, Inc. (the “Company”) is a technology firm that operates and manages a portfolio of Electric Vehicles, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotics (“EV-AI-ML-R”) assets, businesses and operations in North America. The Company’s current and target portfolio businesses and assets include operations that design, develop, manufacture and sell high-performance fully electric vehicles and design, manufacture, install and sell Power Controls, Battery Technology, Wireless Technology, and Residential utility meters and remote, mission-critical devices mostly engineered through Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotic technologies. The Company currently maintains minor equity interest in: (1) Tesla, Inc. (TSLA), a California based maker of high-performance fully electric vehicles; (2) Electrameccanica Vehicles Corp. (SOLO), a British Columbia, Canada headquartered company that designs and builds the all-electric SOLO and the Tofino all-electric sport coupe; (3) Lordstown Motors Corp. (RIDE), a Lordstown, Ohio based company that designs and manufactures electric vehicles; (4) Fisker Inc. (FSR), a Los Angeles, California headquartered company that designs and builds all-electric, zero-emissions vehicles; (5) Nikola Corporation (NKLA), a Phoenix, Arizona company that designs and manufactures electric components, drivetrains and vehicles.
Our current technology-focused business model was a result of our board resolution on September 15, 2020 to spin-in our specialty real estate holding business to an operating subsidiary and then pivot back to being a technology company. The Company has now returned back to its original technology-focused businesses of Power Controls, Battery Technology, Wireless Technology, and Residential utility meters and remote, mission-critical devices. In addition to above list, the Company intends to spread its wings into the Electric Vehicles, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotics (“EV-AI-ML-R”) businesses/markets, targeting acquisition, ownership and operation of acquired EV-AI-ML-R businesses or portfolio of EV-AI-ML-R businesses.
Video River Networks, prior to September 15, 2020, used to be a specialty real estate holding company, focuses on the acquisition, ownership, and management of specialized industrial properties. Prior to its real estate business model, the Company’s Power Controls Division has used wireless technology to control both residential utility meters and remote, mission-critical devices since 2002.
The current management of the Company resulted from a purchase of voting control of the Company by Community Economic Development Capital LLC, (“CED Capital”) a California limited liability company. After the change of control transaction, CED Capital spun out the control-stock to its sole unitholder before being sold to the Company for $1. Thereafter CED Capital became an operating subsidiary of the Company. We used the acquisition of method of accounting for acquisition of subsidiaries by the Group method to account for this transaction. The cost of the acquisition was measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange.
As previously disclosed on our Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, on December 8, 2019, on October 29, 2019, the company sold (1) Special 2019 series A preferred share ( preferred share is convertible share of common stocks) of the company for Fifty Thousand and 00/100 ($50,000/00) Dollars, to Community Economic Development Capital LLC, a California limited liability company. The Special preferred share controls 60% of the company’s total voting rights. The issuance of the preferred share to Community Economic Development Capital LLC gave to Community Economic Development Capital LLC, the controlling vote to control and dominate the affairs of the company theretofor.
Following the completion of above mentioned transactions, the company pivoted the business model to become a specialty real estate holding company for specialized assets including, affordable housing, opportunity zones properties, commercial facilities, industrial and commercial real estate, and other real estate related services.
On September 15, 2020, Video River Networks, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a stock purchase agreement with Kid Castle Educational Corporation (“Kid Castle”), an entity related to, and controlled by our President and CEO with respect to the purchase through private placement, of shares of its preferred stock at a purchase price of $3 in cash and a transfer of 100% interest in, and control of Community Economic Development Capital, LLC (a California Limited Liability Company). The shares were issued to the investors without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 based upon exemptions from registration provided under Section 4(2) of the Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The issuances did not involve any public offering; no general solicitation or general advertising was used in connection with the offering.
On April 21, 2021, the Company sold Cannabinoid Biosciences, Inc. (“CBDX”), a California corporation, to Premier Information Management, Inc. for $1 in cash. As further consideration pursuant to the stated sales, CBDX returned Kid Castle Educational Inc., the parent Company of GMPW, the shares of KDCE preferred stock and shares of KDCE common stock that CBDX bought in October of 2019. Pursuant to the April 21, 2021 transaction, CBDX ceased from being a subsidiary of GMPW, effective April 1, 2021.
As at the time of these transactions, all four businesses involved in the transactions were controlled by Mr. Frank I Igwealor. Because both the buyer and seller in the above acquisitions were under the control of the same person, the transaction was classified as “common control transaction and therefore fall under “Transactions Between Entities Under Common Control” subsections of ASC 805-50. Under ASC 805-50, “assets transferred to the entity are generally not stepped up to fair value. Instead, they are recorded at the ultimate parent’s historical cost basis. Whether the transaction should be retrospectively or prospectively applied is dependent on the nature of the common control transaction. Transfer of net assets or a business are reflected retrospectively, whereas transfers of assets are prospective.” “The financial statements of the receiving entity should report results of operations for the period in which the transfer occurs as though the transfer of net assets or exchange of equity interests had occurred at the beginning of the period. Results of operations for that period will thus comprise those of the previously separate entities combined from the beginning of the period to the date the transfer is completed and those of the combined operations from that date to the end of the period.”
As at the time of this transaction, all four businesses involved in the transaction were controlled by Mr. Frank I Igwealor. Because both the buyer and seller in the above acquisitions were under the control of the same person, the transaction was classified as “common control transaction and therefore fall under “Transactions Between Entities Under Common Control” subsections of ASC 805-50. Following the acquisition, the Company now has 55% of the voting control of and 100% of operating and financial control of Kid Castle.
The consolidated financial statements of the Company therefore include Kid Castle Educational Corporation and its subsidiary, GiveMePower Corporation, and all wholly owned (or majority owned) subsidiaries of GiveMePower including Alpharidge Capital LLC. (“Alpharidge”), Community Economic Development Capital, LLC. (“CED Capital”), and Cannabinoid Biosciences, Inc. (“CBDX”), and subsidiaries, in which it has a controlling voting interest and entities consolidated under the variable interest entities (“VIE”) provisions of ASC 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”), after elimination of intercompany transactions and accounts.
Following the completion of the transaction with Kid Castle, the Company having been partly freed of the internally-managed real estate holding business that focused on the acquisition, ownership and management of specialized industrial properties, affordable housing and opportunity zone real estate properties and businesses, has decided to return back to its original technology-focused businesses of Power Controls, Battery Technology, Wireless Technology, and Residential utility meters and remote, mission-critical devices. In addition to above list, the Company is spreading its wings into the Electric Vehicles, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Robotics (“EV-AI-ML-R”) businesses/markets, targeting acquisition, ownership and operation of acquired EV-AI-ML-R businesses or portfolio of EV-AI-ML-R businesses.
The consolidated financial statements of the Company therefore include Kid Castle Educational Corporation, whose main operating subsidiary is GiveMePower Corporation, a Nevada corporation with operating subsidiaries that includes Alpharidge Capital LLC. (“Alpharidge”), Community Economic Development Capital, LLC. (“CED Capital”), and subsidiaries, in which GiveMePower has a controlling voting interest and entities consolidated under the variable interest entities (“VIE”) provisions of ASC 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”), after elimination of intercompany transactions and accounts.
Alpharidge’s Entrepreneurship Development Initiative
In April of 2021, Alpharidge launched its Entrepreneurship Development Initiative which entails: (1) Portfolio – acquiring OTC trading shells with stop signs and cleaning them up to become Pink Current, then merging them with emerging businesses controlled by Alpharidge-trained entrepreneurs; and (2) Custodianship – use the custodianship process in Nevada and Delaware to acquire custodianship of abandoned OTC-trading shells, clean them up to become Pink Current, then merging them with emerging businesses controlled by Alpharidge-trained entrepreneurs.
On April 22, 2021, Alpharidge retained a Nevada based Attorney to petition for custodianship of Mondial Ventures, Inc. Alpharidge later lost the attempt and expensed all related cost as Professional fees – legal. On May 5, 2021, Alpharidge purchase from the open market, Labwire, Inc., (LBWR) and Waypoint Biomedical, Inc., both of which it has brought Pink Current. As at the date of this reports, Alpharidge’ Entrepreneurship Development Initiative Portfolio has bought also purchase Nano Mobile Healthcare, Inc. to make it 3 shells. The Custodianship has petitioned for MNVN, HMLA, TONR, ECMH, ABWN, FPMI, NTGL, CGUD, ICOA, SRBT, USWF, NWTT, USBC, WRMA, WWRL, HERF, NRCD, TGMR, ITRX, AFFN, UTDE, AOBI, SRCX, ADCV, DVFI, APWL, CIVX, NHLG, ILIM, CCWF, TMXN, MNDP, JPEX, SVLT, MTEI, CAMG, CDBT, ERGO, NOUV, ICNM, PRDL, OCLG, ILST and FCGD, altogether 44 petitions filed within 8 weeks. Of the 44, Alpharidge lost, walked-away, or withdrew from 9 petitions.” Cost related to the successful petitions were capitalized on the Company’s balance sheet as “Entrepreneurship Development” and those related to failed petitions were expensed in the period incurred as “Professional Fees - legal.”
Alpharidge Capital LLC anticipates its Entrepreneurship Development to be an ongoing business. It expects to generate income and expense cost related to this line of business.
Crypto Currency Mining Operation
During the period between March 3 to March 16 2021, the Company tried unsuccessfully, to acquire Bitcentro/Buzzmehome’s CryptoCurrency mining operations in Canada for $500,000 in cash. The deal fell through because of misunderstanding between parties as to the timing and duration of due diligence period.
After the failed acquisition attempt, the Company contracted with Brady Fernandes, a Los Angeles resident who claimed expertise in the crypto mining industry. The Company contracted with Brady for $9,200 to commence the project of helping the company to build out its own in-house cryptocurrency mining farm. Brady has commenced building our first rig and has also ordered the necessary equipment to add rigs to our crypto currency mining farm. On April 28, 2021, the Company paid additional $10,000 to Mr. Fernandez for ordering additional equipment for building out it crypto currency mining farm.
We have dedicated a line-item, “Crypto Currency Mining Rigs,” on our balance to track all our investments in the Crypto Currency Mining Operation. We plan to build out a fully operating farm in California, using solar energy to mitigate the high cost of energy in California.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, in which the Company has a controlling voting interest and entities consolidated under the variable interest entities (“VIE”) provisions of ASC 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”). Inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
ASC 810 requires that the investor with the controlling financial interest should consolidate the investee/affiliate. ASC 810-10 requires that an equity interest investor consolidates a VIE when it retains an investment in the entity, is considered a variable interest investor in the entity, and is the primary beneficiary of the entity. An investor in a VIE is a “variable interest beneficiary” when, per an arrangement’s governing documents, the investor will absorb a portion of the VIE’s expected losses or will receive a portion of the entity’s “residual returns.” The variable interest beneficiary retaining a controlling financial interest in the VIE is designated as its “primary beneficiary” and must consolidate the VIE. A variable interest beneficiary retains a “controlling financial interest” in a VIE when that beneficiary retains the power to direct the activities of the VIE that have the greatest influence over the VIE’s economic performance and retains an obligation to absorb the VIE’s significant losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. Based on the ASC 810 test above, Video River Networks Inc. is the primary beneficiary of Kid Castle Educational Corporation (the “VIE”) because Video River Networks retained a controlling financial interest in the VIE and has the power to direct the activities of the VIE, having the greatest influence over the VIE’s economic performance and retains an obligation to absorb the VIE’s significant losses and the right to determine and receive benefits from the VIE.
Since Video River Networks, Inc. exercises control of 55% of the voting shares and 100% of the operational and financial control of Kid Castle Educational Corporation, the consolidation rule requires that the Revenue, Assets and Liabilities recognized and disclosed on the financial statements of Kid Castle Educational Corporation are also recognized and disclosed on the financial statements of Video River Networks, Inc. pursuant to ASC 810.

| GOING CONCERN | NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN
Our financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. While this would make it our third profitable quarter in a row, we still operate limited ongoing business operations that generate income. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we reported net income of $79,734 and $946,676 respectively, and an accumulated deficit of $18,541,562 as of September 30, 2021. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to (a) continue to run our current businesses profitably, (b) raise additional debt, or (c) equity funding to meet our ongoing operating expenses and ultimately in merging with another entity with experienced management and profitable operations. No assurances can be given that we will be successful in achieving these objectives.

| Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
| SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in the understanding of the financial statements. These policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied. The Company has elected a calendar year of December 31 year-end.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its subsidiaries, in which the Company has a controlling voting interest and entities consolidated under the variable interest entities (“VIE”) provisions of ASC 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”). The consolidated financial statements include the Company and Kid Castle Educational Corporation and all of its controlled subsidiary companies. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Investments in business entities in which we do not have control, but we have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies (generally 20% to 50% ownership) are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Operating results of acquired businesses are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income from the date of acquisition. We consolidate variable interest entities if we have operational and financial control, and are deemed to be the >50.1% beneficiary of the profit and loss of the entity. Operating results for variable interest entities in which we are determined to be the primary beneficiary are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income from the date such determination is made.
COVID-19 Risks, Impacts and Uncertainties
COVID-19 Risks, Impacts and Uncertainties — We are subject to the risks arising from COVID-19’s impacts on the residential real estate industry. Our management believes that these impacts, which include but are not limited to the following, could have a significant negative effect on our future financial position, results of operations, and cash flows: (i) prohibitions or limitations on in-person activities associated with residential real estate transactions; (ii) lack of consumer desire for in-person interactions and physical home tours; and (iii) deteriorating economic conditions, such as increased unemployment rates, recessionary conditions, lower yields on individuals’ investment portfolios, and more stringent mortgage financing conditions. In addition, we have considered the impacts and uncertainties of COVID-19 in our use of estimates in preparation of our consolidated financial statements. These estimates include, but are not limited to, likelihood of achieving performance conditions under performance-based equity awards, net realizable value of inventory, and the fair value of reporting units and goodwill for impairment.
In April 2020, following the government lockdown order, we asked all employees to begin to work from their homes and we also reduced the number of hours available to each of our employees by approximately by approximately 75%. These actions taken in response to the economic impact of COVID-19 on our business resulted in a reduction of productivity for the period ended September 30, 2021. All cost related to these actions are included in general and administrative expenses, as these costs were determined to be direct and incremental.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“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 could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We maintain cash balances in a non-interest-bearing account that currently does not exceed federally insured limits. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we did maintain $218,707 and $1,630 balance of cash equivalents respectively.
Financial Instruments
The estimated fair values for financial instruments were determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information. These estimates involved uncertainties and could not be determined with precision. The carrying amount of the our accounts payable and accruals, our accruals- related parties and loans – related parties approximate their fair values because of the short-term maturities of these instruments.
Fair Value Measurements:
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), provides a comprehensive framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures which are required about fair value measurements. Specifically, ASC 820 sets forth a definition of fair value and establishes a hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable value inputs. ASC 820 defines the hierarchy as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 1 are highly liquid and actively traded instruments with quoted prices, such as equities listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets but are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities in Level 2 are typically either comparable to actively traded securities or contracts or priced with models using highly observable inputs.
Level 3 – Significant inputs to pricing that are unobservable as of the reporting date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 3 are those with inputs requiring significant management judgment or estimation, such as complex and subjective models and forecasts used to determine the fair value of financial transmission rights.
Our financial instruments consist of accounts payable and accruals and our accruals- related parties. The carrying amount of the out accounts payable and accruals, accruals- related parties and loans – related parties approximates their fair values because of the short-term maturities of these instruments.
The Company’s financial instruments consisted of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and line of credit. The estimated fair value of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to or from affiliated companies, and notes payable approximates its carrying amount due to the short maturity of these instruments.
Financial Instruments
In the normal course of business, the Investment Funds may trade various financial instruments and enter into certain investment activities, which may give rise to off-balance-sheet risks, with the objective of capital appreciation or as economic hedges against other securities or the market as a whole. The Investment Funds’ investments may include futures, options, swaps and securities sold, not yet purchased. These financial instruments represent future commitments to purchase or sell other financial instruments or to exchange an amount of cash based on the change in an underlying instrument at specific terms at specified future dates. Risks arise with these financial instruments from potential counterparty non-performance and from changes in the market values of underlying instruments.
Credit concentrations may arise from investment activities and may be impacted by changes in economic, industry or political factors. The Investment Funds routinely execute transactions with counterparties in the financial services industry, resulting in credit concentration with respect to the financial services industry. In the ordinary course of business, the Investment Funds may also be subject to a concentration of credit risk to a particular counterparty. The Investment Funds seek to mitigate these risks by actively monitoring exposures, collateral requirements and the creditworthiness of its counterparties.
The Investment Funds have entered into various types of swap contracts with other counterparties. These agreements provide that they are entitled to receive or are obligated to pay in cash an amount equal to the increase or decrease, respectively, in the value of the underlying shares, debt and other instruments that are the subject of the contracts, during the period from inception of the applicable agreement to its expiration. In addition, pursuant to the terms of such agreements, they are entitled to receive or obligated to pay other amounts, including interest, dividends and other distributions made in respect of the underlying shares, debt and other instruments during the specified time frame. They are also required to pay to the counterparty a floating interest rate equal to the product of the notional amount multiplied by an agreed-upon rate, and they receive interest on any cash collateral that they post to the counterparty at the federal funds or LIBOR rate in effect for such period.
The Investment Funds may trade futures contracts. A futures contract is a firm commitment to buy or sell a specified quantity of a standardized amount of a deliverable grade commodity, security, currency or cash at a specified price and specified future date unless the contract is closed before the delivery date. Payments (or variation margin) are made or received by the Investment Funds each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the contract, and the whole value change is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss by the Investment Funds. When the contract is closed, the Investment Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.
The Investment Funds may utilize forward contracts to seek to protect their assets denominated in foreign currencies and precious metals holdings from losses due to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and spot rates. The Investment Funds’ exposure to credit risk associated with non-performance of such forward contracts is limited to the unrealized gains or losses inherent in such contracts, which are recognized in other assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets.
The Investment Funds may also enter into foreign currency contracts for purposes other than hedging denominated securities. When entering into a foreign currency forward contract, the Investment Funds agree to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed-upon price on an agreed-upon future date unless the contract is closed before such date. The Investment Funds record unrealized gains or losses on the contracts as measured by the difference between the forward foreign exchange rates at the dates of entry into such contracts and the forward rates at the reporting date.
Furthermore, the Investment Funds may also purchase and write option contracts. As a writer of option contracts, the Investment Funds receive a premium at the outset and then bear the market risk of unfavorable changes in the price of the underlying financial instrument. As a result of writing option contracts, the Investment Funds are obligated to purchase or sell, at the holder’s option, the underlying financial instrument. Accordingly, these transactions result in off-balance-sheet risk, as the Investment Funds’ satisfaction of the obligations may exceed the amount recognized in our consolidated balance sheets.
Certain terms of the Investment Funds’ contracts with derivative counterparties, which are standard and customary to such contracts, contain certain triggering events that would give the counterparties the right to terminate the derivative instruments. In such events, the counterparties to the derivative instruments could request immediate payment on derivative instruments in net liability positions.
Derivatives
From time to time, our subsidiaries enter into derivative contracts, including purchased and written option contracts, swap contracts, futures contracts and forward contracts. U.S. GAAP requires recognition of all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet at their fair value. The accounting for changes in fair value depends on the intended use of the derivative and its resulting designation. For those derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, a company must designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as a fair value hedge, cash flow hedge or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation. Gains and losses related to a hedge are either recognized in income immediately to offset the gain or loss on the hedged item or are deferred and reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and subsequently recognized in earnings when the hedged item affects earnings. The change in fair value of the ineffective portion of a financial instrument, determined using the hypothetical derivative method, is recognized in earnings immediately. The gain or loss related to financial instruments that are not designated as hedges are recognized immediately in earnings. Cash flows related to hedging activities are included in the operating section of the consolidated statements of cash flows. For further information regarding our derivative contracts, see Note 6, “Financial Instruments.”
Marginal Loan Payable
The Company entered into a marginal loan agreement as part of its new trading account process in 2019 with the Company’s brokerage for the purchase of securities and to fund the underfunded balance. The marginal loan payable bears interest at 0% per annum and interest and unpaid principal balance is payable on the maturity date. The balance of this account as of September 30, 2021 is $0.
Investment – Trading Securities
All investment securities are classified as trading securities and are carried at fair value in accordance with ASC 320 Investments — Debt and Equity Securities. Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses on sales of investments are based on the first-in, first-out or the specific identification method. Realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are recorded in the statements of operations as realized and unrealized gains or losses as net revenue. All investment securities are held and transacted by the Company’s broker firm. The Company did not hold more than 3% of equity of the shares of any public companies as investments As of September 30, 2021
All investments that are listed on a securities exchange are valued at their last sales price on the primary securities exchange on which such securities are traded on such date. Securities that are not listed on any exchange but are traded over-the-counter are valued at the mean between the last “bid” and “ask” price for such security on such date. The Company does not have any investment securities for which market quotes are not readily available.
The Company’s trading securities are held by a third-party brokerage firm, and composed of publicly traded companies with readily available fair value which are quoted prices in active markets.
Related Party Transactions:
A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of our membership interests including such person’s immediate families, (ii) our management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with us, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence our financial and operating decisions. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. As at September 30, 2021, the Company has a loan balance of $903,248 from company that is controlled by the Company’s majority stockholder. Additionally, during the period under review, the Company paid rent $1,793 to a company that is controlled by the Company’s majority stockholder. See NOTE 7 for more details of our related party transactions.
The Company’s Other accrued liabilities entail licensing fees owned to Poverty Solutions, Inc., a control entity. The related party is a California nonprofit corporation that specialized in developing and deploying programs that help low-income persons and families to divest poverty, through affordable housing, real estate development, financial capability training, venture capital initiatives, private equity operations, and algorithmic trading models designs. The transaction is arm-length and 20/80 distribution is standard practice in the hedge-fund and private-equity industry.
Leases:
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases” that requires for leases longer than one year, a lessee to recognize in the statement of financial condition a right-of-use asset, representing the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term, and a lease liability, representing the liability to make lease payments. The accounting update also requires that for finance leases, a lessee recognize interest expense on the lease liability, separately from the amortization of the right-of-use asset in the statements of earnings, while for operating leases, such amounts should be recognized as a combined expense. In addition, this accounting update requires expanded disclosures about the nature and terms of lease agreements. The Company has reviewed the new standard and does not expect it to have a material impact to the statement of financial condition or its net capital.
Income Taxes:
The provision for income taxes is computed using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating losses and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates that apply to taxable income in effect for the years in which those tax assets are expected to be realized or settled. We record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.
Uncertain Tax Positions:
We evaluate tax positions in a two-step process. We first determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. If a tax position meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold it is then measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The tax position is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. We classify gross interest and penalties and unrecognized tax benefits that are not expected to result in payment or receipt of cash within one year as long term liabilities in the financial statements.
Revenue Recognition:
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires that five basic steps be followed to recognize revenue: (1) a legally enforceable contract that meets criteria standards as to composition and substance is identified; (2) performance obligations relating to provision of goods or services to the customer are identified; (3) the transaction price, with consideration given to any variable, noncash, or other relevant consideration, is determined; (4) the transaction price is allocated to the performance obligations; and (5) revenue is recognized when control of goods or services is transferred to the customer with consideration given, whether that control happens over time or not. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on our management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products and services delivered and the collectability of those amounts. The adoption of ASC 606 did not result in a change to the accounting for any of the in-scope revenue streams; as such, no cumulative effect adjustment was recorded.
The Company generates revenue primarily from: (1) the sale of homes/properties, (2) commissions and fees charged on each real estate services transaction closed by our lead agents or partner agents, and (3) sales of trading securities using its broker firm, less original purchase cost. Net trading revenues primarily consist of revenues from trading securities earned upon completion of trade, net of any trading fees. A trading is completed when earned and recognized at a point in time, on a trade-date basis, as the Company executes trades. The Company records trading revenue on a net basis, trading sales less original purchase cost. Net realized gains and losses from securities transactions are determined for federal income tax and financial reporting purposes on the first-in, first-out method and represent proceeds on disposition of investments less the cost basis of investments. Sale of real estate properties are recognized at the sales price/amount and the total cost (including cost of rehabilitations) associated with the property acquisition and rehabilitation are classified in Cost of Goods Sold (COGS).
During three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company did recognized revenue of $1,998,489 and 6,040,683 from operations, and $0 and $62 in dividend income respectively.
Professional Fees:
We expense professional fees when incurred. During the period ended September 30, 2021, the Company did recognize professional fees of $135,261 compared to $66,059 we spent in the period ended.
Real Estate
Revenue Recognition: Revenue from real estate sales and related costs are recognized at the time of closing primarily by specific identification. We shall account for our leases as follows: (i) for operating leases, revenue is recognized on a straight line basis over the lease term and (ii) for financing leases (x) minimum lease payments to be received plus the estimated value of the property at the end of the lease are considered the gross investment in the lease and (y) unearned income, representing the difference between gross investment and actual cost of the leased property, is amortized to income over the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment in the lease. We have no real estate sales in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021
Alpharidge’s Entrepreneurship Development Initiative (EDI)
EDI Program Summary
In April of 2021, Alpharidge launched its Entrepreneurship Development Initiative which entails: (1) Portfolio – acquiring OTC trading shells with stop signs and cleaning them up to become Pink Current, then merging them with emerging businesses controlled by Alpharidge-trained entrepreneurs; and (2) Custodianship – use the custodianship process in Nevada and Delaware to acquire custodianship of abandoned OTC-trading shells, clean them up to become Pink Current, then merging them with emerging businesses controlled by Alpharidge-trained entrepreneurs.
To launch its Entrepreneurship Development Initiative, Alpharidge Capital, LLC drew $0.9 million from its $1.5 million LOC with LA Community Capital. On April 22, 2021, Alpharidge retained a Nevada based Attorney to petition for custodianship of Mondial Ventures, Inc. Alpharidge later lost the attempt and expensed all related cost as Professional fees – legal. On May 5, 2021, Alpharidge purchase from the open market, Labwire, Inc., (LBWR) and Waypoint Biomedical, Inc., both of which it has brought Pink Current. As at the date of this reports, Alpharidge’ Entrepreneurship Development Initiative Portfolio has bought also purchase Nano Mobile Healthcare, Inc. to make it 3 shells. The Custodianship has petitioned for MNVN, HMLA, TONR, ECMH, ABWN, FPMI, NTGL, CGUD, ICOA, SRBT, USWF, NWTT, USBC, WRMA, WWRL, HERF, NRCD, TGMR, ITRX, AFFN, UTDE, AOBI, SRCX, ADCV, DVFI, APWL, CIVX, NHLG, ILIM, CCWF, TMXN, MNDP, JPEX, SVLT, MTEI, CAMG, CDBT, ERGO, NOUV, ICNM, PRDL, OCLG, ILST and FCGD, altogether 44 petitions filed within 8 weeks. Of the 44, Alpharidge lost, walked-away, or withdrew from 9 petitions.” Cost related to the successful petitions were capitalized on the Company’s balance sheet as “Entrepreneurship Development” and those related to failed petitions were expensed in the period incurred as “Professional Fees - legal.”
EDI Long-Term Goals
Alpharidge Capital LLC anticipates its Entrepreneurship Development to be an ongoing business. It expects to generate income and expense cost related to this line of business.
Accounting and Reporting for EDI
Costs are accumulated by shells as follows: (1) legal cost to petition court for custodianship of an abandoned shell; (2) State taxes and fees to revive or reinstate company into good standing; (3) payment to Transfer agents to clear outstanding balance; and (4) fees paid to consultants, SEC and OTC Market group for systems access and compliance reporting. The total expenses attracted by each custodianship or portfolio investments are itemized to the named shell/investment for better cost-recovery analysis. Total accumulated fees are expensed at the time each shell is sold. As of September 30, 2021, Alpharidge has sold two such shells and expensed the total accumulated costs related to each shell sold.
The initial equity investment required by the State Statute to be eligible to seek custodianship of each target is accounted for at cost and booked into an assets account classified as “Investment Entrepreneurship Devpt.” Each of these shells is available to be sold within 12 months.
As at the date of this report, Alpharidge Capital has successfully cleaned 21 of the 35 shells; paid all the most of the State’s minimum tax and fees for reinstatement and revival; cleared most of the outstanding balances with the respective shell’s Transfer Agents; brought the 21 into compliance with the minimum reporting requirements using the alternative reporting systems available through the OTC Market Groups systems. The remaining 14 are waiting for access to the Edgar filing systems to start making necessary report available to meet the requirements. Of those 21, Alpharidge Capital has executed definite agreements to sell two of the shells for profit. In addition, except for minor disagreements of a unique merger clause that is of particular interest to Alpharidge, agreements for the sale of additional three shells are almost complete. Alpharidge is also incompliance with the Nevada court custodianship process reporting requirements.
As of September 30, 2021, total value of Entrepreneurship Development was $2,974,133, comprising of $0.3 million in capitalized legal fees, $1.4 million statutory equity stake, $0.7 million in State charter reinstatement fees paid, and $0.5 million in other costs.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of its cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions of high credit worthiness. The Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions within the United States which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to limits of approximately $250,000. The Company has not experienced any losses with regard to its bank accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risk of loss on its cash bank accounts. It is possible that at times, the company’s cash and cash equivalents with a particular financial institution may exceed any applicable government insurance limits. In such situation, the Company’s management would assess the financial strength and credit worthiness of any parties to which it extends funds, and as such, it believes that any associated credit risk exposures would be addressed and mitigated.
The cost of equity instruments issued to non-employees in return in accordance with ASC 505-50 “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” for goods and services is measured by the fair value of the goods or services received or the measurement date fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is the more readily determinable. Measurement date for non-employees is the earlier of performance commitment date or the completion of services. The cost of employee services received in exchange for equity instruments is based on the grant date fair value of the equity instruments issued in accordance with ASC 718 “Compensation - Stock Compensation.”

Net Loss per Share Calculation:
Basic net loss per common share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Dilutive earnings per share include the effect of any potentially dilutive debt or equity under the treasury stock method, if including such instruments is dilutive, assuming all dilutive potential common shares were issued. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. The Company’s diluted earnings (loss) per share is the same as the basic earnings/loss per share for the period January 1, 2021 to September 30, 2021, as there are no potential shares outstanding that would have a dilutive effect.

| INCOME TAXES | NOTE 9. INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A full valuation allowance is established against all net deferred tax assets As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 based on estimates of recoverability. While the Company has optimistic plans for its business strategy, it determined that such a valuation allowance was necessary given the current and expected near term losses and the uncertainty with respect to its ability to generate sufficient profits from its business model.
We did not provide any current or deferred US federal income tax provision or benefit for any of the periods presented in these financial statements because we have accumulated substantial operating losses over the years. When it is more likely than not, that a tax asset cannot be realized through future income, we must record an allowance against any future potential future tax benefit. We have provided a full valuation allowance against the net deferred tax asset, consisting of net operating loss carry forwards, because management has determined that it is more likely than not that we will not earn income sufficient to realize the deferred tax assets during the carry forward periods.
The Company has not taken a tax position that, if challenged, would have a material effect on the financial statements for the periods ended June 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020 as defined under ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” We did not recognize any adjustment to the liability for uncertain tax position and therefore did not record any adjustment to the beginning balance of the accumulated deficit on the balance sheet.
A reconciliation of the differences between the effective and statutory income tax rates for the period ended September 30, 2021and December 31, 2020:
As at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the significant components of the deferred tax assets are summarized below:
The Company has recorded As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, a valuation allowance of $7,231,209 and $7,560,484 respectively, as it believes that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized in future years. Management has based its assessment on the Company’s lack of profitable operating history.
The valuation allowance $$7,231,209 at September 30, 2021 decreased compared to December 31, 2020 of $7,560,484 as a result of the Company generating additional net operating income of $866,764. The Company conducts an analysis of its tax positions and has concluded that it has no uncertain tax positions as of ended June 30, 2021 or December 31, 2020.
For the period ended September 30, 2021or December 31, 2020, the Company has net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $18,541,562 and $19,385,856 respectively. Such amounts are subject to IRS code section 382 limitations and expire in 2033.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
ASU 2019-12 — In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2019- 12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The amendments in ASU 2019-12 simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740, Income Taxes. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning October 1, 2021, with early adoption permitted. The transition requirements are dependent upon each amendment within this update and will be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-13 — In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which amends FASB ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. In addition, in May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, Targeted Transition Relief, which updates FASB ASU 2016-13. These ASU’s require financial assets measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount to be collected and broadens the information, including forecasted information incorporating more timely information, that an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured. These ASU’s are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Most of our financial assets are excluded from the requirements of this standard as they are measured at fair value or are subject to other accounting standards. In addition, certain of our other financial assets are short-term in nature and therefore are not likely to be subject to significant credit losses beyond what is already recorded under current accounting standards. As a result, we currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurements, which amends FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. This ASU eliminates, modifies and adds various disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Certain disclosures are required to be applied using a retrospective approach and others using a prospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. The various disclosure requirements being eliminated, modified or added are not significant to us. As a result, we currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That is a Service Contract, which amends FASB ASC Subtopic 350-40, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software. This ASU adds certain disclosure requirements related to implementation costs incurred for internal-use software and cloud computing arrangements. The amendment aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments in this ASU should be applied either using a retrospective or prospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. We currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15 on “Presentation of Financial Statements Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) – Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”. Currently, there is no guidance in U.S. GAAP about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. The amendments in this update provide such guidance. In doing so, the amendments are intended to reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures. The amendments require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards. Specifically, the amendments (1) provide a definition of the term substantial doubt, (2) require an evaluation every reporting period including interim periods, (3) provide principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans, (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’s plans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). The amendments in this update are effective for public and nonpublic entities for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. We currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-01, “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” This ASU clarifies that the scope of ASU No. 2011-11, “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” applies only to derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse purchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset in accordance with specific criteria contained in FASB Accounting Standards Codification or subject to a master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after January 1, 2013. We currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” The ASU adds new disclosure requirements for items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component and their corresponding effect on net income. The ASU is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013. We currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued ASU No. 2013-04, “Liabilities (Topic 405): Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date.” This ASU addresses the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of certain obligations resulting from joint and several arrangements including debt arrangements, other contractual obligations, and settled litigation and judicial rulings. The ASU is effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. We currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-05, “Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity.” This ASU addresses the accounting for the cumulative translation adjustment when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business within a foreign entity. The guidance outlines the events when cumulative translation adjustments should be released into net income and is intended by FASB to eliminate some disparity in current accounting practice. This ASU is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. We currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-07, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205): Liquidation Basis of Accounting.” The amendments require an entity to prepare its financial statements using the liquidation basis of accounting when liquidation is imminent. Liquidation is imminent when the likelihood is remote that the entity will return from liquidation and either (a) a plan for liquidation is approved by the person or persons with the authority to make such a plan effective and the likelihood is remote that the execution of the plan will be blocked by other parties or (b) a plan for liquidation is being imposed by other forces (for example, involuntary bankruptcy). If a plan for liquidation was specified in the entity’s governing documents from the entity’s inception (for example, limited-life entities), the entity should apply the liquidation basis of accounting only if the approved plan for liquidation differs from the plan for liquidation that was specified at the entity’s inception. The amendments require financial statements prepared using the liquidation basis of accounting to present relevant information about an entity’s expected resources in liquidation by measuring and presenting assets at the amount of the expected cash proceeds from liquidation. The entity should include in its presentation of assets any items it had not previously recognized under U.S. GAAP but that it expects to either sell in liquidation or use in settling liabilities (for example, trademarks). The amendments are effective for entities that determine liquidation is imminent during annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013, and interim reporting periods therein. We currently do not anticipate this standard to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
We have reviewed all the recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements. Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements. As new accounting pronouncements are issued, we will adopt those that are applicable under the circumstances.

Investment
Investments and securities purchased, not yet sold consist of equities, bonds, bank debt and other corporate obligations, all of which are reported at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets. These investments are considered trading securities. In addition, our Investment segment has certain derivative transactions which are discussed below in “Financial Instruments.”
Investment Securities (Trading): The Company applied the fair value accounting treatment for trading securities per ASC 320, with unrealized gains and losses recorded in net income each period. Debt securities classified as trading should be measured at fair value in the currency in which the debt securities are denominated and remeasured into the investor’s functional currency using the spot exchange rate at the balance sheet date.
Trading securities are treated using the fair value method, whereby the value of the securities on the company’s balance sheet is equivalent to their current market value. These securities will be recorded in the current assets section under the Investment Securities account and will be offset in the shareholder’s equity section under the unrealized proceeds from sale of short-term investments” account. The Short Term Investments account amount represents the current market value of the securities, and the “Unrealized Proceeds From Sale of Short Term Investments” account represents the cash proceeds that the company would receive if it were to sell the investments at the end of the specified accounting period.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its subsidiaries, in which the Company has a controlling voting interest and entities consolidated under the variable interest entities (“VIE”) provisions of ASC 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”). The consolidated financial statements include the Company and Kid Castle Educational Corporation and all of its controlled subsidiary companies. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Investments in business entities in which we do not have control, but we have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies (generally 20% to 50% ownership) are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Operating results of acquired businesses are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income from the date of acquisition. We consolidate variable interest entities if we have operational and financial control, and are deemed to be the >50.1% beneficiary of the profit and loss of the entity. Operating results for variable interest entities in which we are determined to be the primary beneficiary are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income from the date such determination is made.

| COVID-19 Risks, Impacts and Uncertainties | COVID-19 Risks, Impacts and Uncertainties
COVID-19 Risks, Impacts and Uncertainties — We are subject to the risks arising from COVID-19’s impacts on the residential real estate industry. Our management believes that these impacts, which include but are not limited to the following, could have a significant negative effect on our future financial position, results of operations, and cash flows: (i) prohibitions or limitations on in-person activities associated with residential real estate transactions; (ii) lack of consumer desire for in-person interactions and physical home tours; and (iii) deteriorating economic conditions, such as increased unemployment rates, recessionary conditions, lower yields on individuals’ investment portfolios, and more stringent mortgage financing conditions. In addition, we have considered the impacts and uncertainties of COVID-19 in our use of estimates in preparation of our consolidated financial statements. These estimates include, but are not limited to, likelihood of achieving performance conditions under performance-based equity awards, net realizable value of inventory, and the fair value of reporting units and goodwill for impairment.
In April 2020, following the government lockdown order, we asked all employees to begin to work from their homes and we also reduced the number of hours available to each of our employees by approximately by approximately 75%. These actions taken in response to the economic impact of COVID-19 on our business resulted in a reduction of productivity for the period ended September 30, 2021. All cost related to these actions are included in general and administrative expenses, as these costs were determined to be direct and incremental.
|
| Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“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 could differ from those estimates.
|
| Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents
We maintain cash balances in a non-interest-bearing account that currently does not exceed federally insured limits. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we did maintain $218,707 and $1,630 balance of cash equivalents respectively.
|
| Financial Instruments | Financial Instruments
The estimated fair values for financial instruments were determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information. These estimates involved uncertainties and could not be determined with precision. The carrying amount of the our accounts payable and accruals, our accruals- related parties and loans – related parties approximate their fair values because of the short-term maturities of these instruments.
|
| Fair Value Measurements: | Fair Value Measurements:
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), provides a comprehensive framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures which are required about fair value measurements. Specifically, ASC 820 sets forth a definition of fair value and establishes a hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable value inputs. ASC 820 defines the hierarchy as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 1 are highly liquid and actively traded instruments with quoted prices, such as equities listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets but are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities in Level 2 are typically either comparable to actively traded securities or contracts or priced with models using highly observable inputs.
Level 3 – Significant inputs to pricing that are unobservable as of the reporting date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 3 are those with inputs requiring significant management judgment or estimation, such as complex and subjective models and forecasts used to determine the fair value of financial transmission rights.
Our financial instruments consist of accounts payable and accruals and our accruals- related parties. The carrying amount of the out accounts payable and accruals, accruals- related parties and loans – related parties approximates their fair values because of the short-term maturities of these instruments.
The Company’s financial instruments consisted of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and line of credit. The estimated fair value of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to or from affiliated companies, and notes payable approximates its carrying amount due to the short maturity of these instruments.

| Financial Instruments | Financial Instruments
In the normal course of business, the Investment Funds may trade various financial instruments and enter into certain investment activities, which may give rise to off-balance-sheet risks, with the objective of capital appreciation or as economic hedges against other securities or the market as a whole. The Investment Funds’ investments may include futures, options, swaps and securities sold, not yet purchased. These financial instruments represent future commitments to purchase or sell other financial instruments or to exchange an amount of cash based on the change in an underlying instrument at specific terms at specified future dates. Risks arise with these financial instruments from potential counterparty non-performance and from changes in the market values of underlying instruments.
Credit concentrations may arise from investment activities and may be impacted by changes in economic, industry or political factors. The Investment Funds routinely execute transactions with counterparties in the financial services industry, resulting in credit concentration with respect to the financial services industry. In the ordinary course of business, the Investment Funds may also be subject to a concentration of credit risk to a particular counterparty. The Investment Funds seek to mitigate these risks by actively monitoring exposures, collateral requirements and the creditworthiness of its counterparties.
The Investment Funds have entered into various types of swap contracts with other counterparties. These agreements provide that they are entitled to receive or are obligated to pay in cash an amount equal to the increase or decrease, respectively, in the value of the underlying shares, debt and other instruments that are the subject of the contracts, during the period from inception of the applicable agreement to its expiration. In addition, pursuant to the terms of such agreements, they are entitled to receive or obligated to pay other amounts, including interest, dividends and other distributions made in respect of the underlying shares, debt and other instruments during the specified time frame. They are also required to pay to the counterparty a floating interest rate equal to the product of the notional amount multiplied by an agreed-upon rate, and they receive interest on any cash collateral that they post to the counterparty at the federal funds or LIBOR rate in effect for such period.
The Investment Funds may trade futures contracts. A futures contract is a firm commitment to buy or sell a specified quantity of a standardized amount of a deliverable grade commodity, security, currency or cash at a specified price and specified future date unless the contract is closed before the delivery date. Payments (or variation margin) are made or received by the Investment Funds each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the contract, and the whole value change is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss by the Investment Funds. When the contract is closed, the Investment Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.
The Investment Funds may utilize forward contracts to seek to protect their assets denominated in foreign currencies and precious metals holdings from losses due to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and spot rates. The Investment Funds’ exposure to credit risk associated with non-performance of such forward contracts is limited to the unrealized gains or losses inherent in such contracts, which are recognized in other assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets.
The Investment Funds may also enter into foreign currency contracts for purposes other than hedging denominated securities. When entering into a foreign currency forward contract, the Investment Funds agree to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed-upon price on an agreed-upon future date unless the contract is closed before such date. The Investment Funds record unrealized gains or losses on the contracts as measured by the difference between the forward foreign exchange rates at the dates of entry into such contracts and the forward rates at the reporting date.
Furthermore, the Investment Funds may also purchase and write option contracts. As a writer of option contracts, the Investment Funds receive a premium at the outset and then bear the market risk of unfavorable changes in the price of the underlying financial instrument. As a result of writing option contracts, the Investment Funds are obligated to purchase or sell, at the holder’s option, the underlying financial instrument. Accordingly, these transactions result in off-balance-sheet risk, as the Investment Funds’ satisfaction of the obligations may exceed the amount recognized in our consolidated balance sheets.
Certain terms of the Investment Funds’ contracts with derivative counterparties, which are standard and customary to such contracts, contain certain triggering events that would give the counterparties the right to terminate the derivative instruments. In such events, the counterparties to the derivative instruments could request immediate payment on derivative instruments in net liability positions.
|
| Derivatives | Derivatives
From time to time, our subsidiaries enter into derivative contracts, including purchased and written option contracts, swap contracts, futures contracts and forward contracts. U.S. GAAP requires recognition of all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet at their fair value. The accounting for changes in fair value depends on the intended use of the derivative and its resulting designation. For those derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, a company must designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as a fair value hedge, cash flow hedge or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation. Gains and losses related to a hedge are either recognized in income immediately to offset the gain or loss on the hedged item or are deferred and reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and subsequently recognized in earnings when the hedged item affects earnings. The change in fair value of the ineffective portion of a financial instrument, determined using the hypothetical derivative method, is recognized in earnings immediately. The gain or loss related to financial instruments that are not designated as hedges are recognized immediately in earnings. Cash flows related to hedging activities are included in the operating section of the consolidated statements of cash flows. For further information regarding our derivative contracts, see Note 6, “Financial Instruments.”

| Marginal Loan Payable | Marginal Loan Payable
The Company entered into a marginal loan agreement as part of its new trading account process in 2019 with the Company’s brokerage for the purchase of securities and to fund the underfunded balance. The marginal loan payable bears interest at 0% per annum and interest and unpaid principal balance is payable on the maturity date. The balance of this account as of September 30, 2021 is $0.

| Investment – Trading Securities | Investment – Trading Securities
All investment securities are classified as trading securities and are carried at fair value in accordance with ASC 320 Investments — Debt and Equity Securities. Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses on sales of investments are based on the first-in, first-out or the specific identification method. Realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are recorded in the statements of operations as realized and unrealized gains or losses as net revenue. All investment securities are held and transacted by the Company’s broker firm. The Company did not hold more than 3% of equity of the shares of any public companies as investments As of September 30, 2021
All investments that are listed on a securities exchange are valued at their last sales price on the primary securities exchange on which such securities are traded on such date. Securities that are not listed on any exchange but are traded over-the-counter are valued at the mean between the last “bid” and “ask” price for such security on such date. The Company does not have any investment securities for which market quotes are not readily available.
The Company’s trading securities are held by a third-party brokerage firm, and composed of publicly traded companies with readily available fair value which are quoted prices in active markets.

| Related Party Transactions: | Related Party Transactions:
A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of our membership interests including such person’s immediate families, (ii) our management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with us, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence our financial and operating decisions. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. As at September 30, 2021, the Company has a loan balance of $903,248 from company that is controlled by the Company’s majority stockholder. Additionally, during the period under review, the Company paid rent $1,793 to a company that is controlled by the Company’s majority stockholder. See NOTE 7 for more details of our related party transactions.
The Company’s Other accrued liabilities entail licensing fees owned to Poverty Solutions, Inc., a control entity. The related party is a California nonprofit corporation that specialized in developing and deploying programs that help low-income persons and families to divest poverty, through affordable housing, real estate development, financial capability training, venture capital initiatives, private equity operations, and algorithmic trading models designs. The transaction is arm-length and 20/80 distribution is standard practice in the hedge-fund and private-equity industry.
|
| Leases: | Leases:
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases” that requires for leases longer than one year, a lessee to recognize in the statement of financial condition a right-of-use asset, representing the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term, and a lease liability, representing the liability to make lease payments. The accounting update also requires that for finance leases, a lessee recognize interest expense on the lease liability, separately from the amortization of the right-of-use asset in the statements of earnings, while for operating leases, such amounts should be recognized as a combined expense. In addition, this accounting update requires expanded disclosures about the nature and terms of lease agreements. The Company has reviewed the new standard and does not expect it to have a material impact to the statement of financial condition or its net capital.
|
| Income Taxes: | Income Taxes:
The provision for income taxes is computed using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating losses and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates that apply to taxable income in effect for the years in which those tax assets are expected to be realized or settled. We record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.
|
| Uncertain Tax Positions: | Uncertain Tax Positions:
We evaluate tax positions in a two-step process. We first determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. If a tax position meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold it is then measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The tax position is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. We classify gross interest and penalties and unrecognized tax benefits that are not expected to result in payment or receipt of cash within one year as long term liabilities in the financial statements.
|
| Revenue Recognition: | Revenue Recognition:
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires that five basic steps be followed to recognize revenue: (1) a legally enforceable contract that meets criteria standards as to composition and substance is identified; (2) performance obligations relating to provision of goods or services to the customer are identified; (3) the transaction price, with consideration given to any variable, noncash, or other relevant consideration, is determined; (4) the transaction price is allocated to the performance obligations; and (5) revenue is recognized when control of goods or services is transferred to the customer with consideration given, whether that control happens over time or not. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on our management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products and services delivered and the collectability of those amounts. The adoption of ASC 606 did not result in a change to the accounting for any of the in-scope revenue streams; as such, no cumulative effect adjustment was recorded.
The Company generates revenue primarily from: (1) the sale of homes/properties, (2) commissions and fees charged on each real estate services transaction closed by our lead agents or partner agents, and (3) sales of trading securities using its broker firm, less original purchase cost. Net trading revenues primarily consist of revenues from trading securities earned upon completion of trade, net of any trading fees. A trading is completed when earned and recognized at a point in time, on a trade-date basis, as the Company executes trades. The Company records trading revenue on a net basis, trading sales less original purchase cost.

Revenue Recognition: Revenue from real estate sales and related costs are recognized at the time of closing primarily by specific identification. We shall account for our leases as follows: (i) for operating leases, revenue is recognized on a straight line basis over the lease term and (ii) for financing leases (x) minimum lease payments to be received plus the estimated value of the property at the end of the lease are considered the gross investment in the lease and (y) unearned income, representing the difference between gross investment and actual cost of the leased property, is amortized to income over the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment in the lease. We have no real estate sales in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021
Alpharidge’s Entrepreneurship Development Initiative (EDI)
EDI Program Summary
In April of 2021, Alpharidge launched its Entrepreneurship Development Initiative which entails: (1) Portfolio – acquiring OTC trading shells with stop signs and cleaning them up to become Pink Current, then merging them with emerging businesses controlled by Alpharidge-trained entrepreneurs; and (2) Custodianship – use the custodianship process in Nevada and Delaware to acquire custodianship of abandoned OTC-trading shells, clean them up to become Pink Current, then merging them with emerging businesses controlled by Alpharidge-trained entrepreneurs.
To launch its Entrepreneurship Development Initiative, Alpharidge Capital, LLC drew $0.9 million from its $1.5 million LOC with LA Community Capital. On April 22, 2021, Alpharidge retained a Nevada based Attorney to petition for custodianship of Mondial Ventures, Inc. Alpharidge later lost the attempt and expensed all related cost as Professional fees – legal. On May 5, 2021, Alpharidge purchase from the open market, Labwire, Inc., (LBWR) and Waypoint Biomedical, Inc., both of which it has brought Pink Current. As at the date of this reports, Alpharidge’ Entrepreneurship Development Initiative Portfolio has bought also purchase Nano Mobile Healthcare, Inc. to make it 3 shells. The Custodianship has petitioned for MNVN, HMLA, TONR, ECMH, ABWN, FPMI, NTGL, CGUD, ICOA, SRBT, USWF, NWTT, USBC, WRMA, WWRL, HERF, NRCD, TGMR, ITRX, AFFN, UTDE, AOBI, SRCX, ADCV, DVFI, APWL, CIVX, NHLG, ILIM, CCWF, TMXN, MNDP, JPEX, SVLT, MTEI, CAMG, CDBT, ERGO, NOUV, ICNM, PRDL, OCLG, ILST and FCGD, altogether 44 petitions filed within 8 weeks. Of the 44, Alpharidge lost, walked-away, or withdrew from 9 petitions.” Cost related to the successful petitions were capitalized on the Company’s balance sheet as “Entrepreneurship Development” and those related to failed petitions were expensed in the period incurred as “Professional Fees - legal.”
EDI Long-Term Goals
Alpharidge Capital LLC anticipates its Entrepreneurship Development to be an ongoing business. It expects to generate income and expense cost related to this line of business.
Accounting and Reporting for EDI
Costs are accumulated by shells as follows: (1) legal cost to petition court for custodianship of an abandoned shell; (2) State taxes and fees to revive or reinstate company into good standing; (3) payment to Transfer agents to clear outstanding balance; and (4) fees paid to consultants, SEC and OTC Market group for systems access and compliance reporting. The total expenses attracted by each custodianship or portfolio investments are itemized to the named shell/investment for better cost-recovery analysis. Total accumulated fees are expensed at the time each shell is sold. As of September 30, 2021, Alpharidge has sold two such shells and expensed the total accumulated costs related to each shell sold.
The initial equity investment required by the State Statute to be eligible to seek custodianship of each target is accounted for at cost and booked into an assets account classified as “Investment Entrepreneurship Devpt.” Each of these shells is available to be sold within 12 months.
As at the date of this report, Alpharidge Capital has successfully cleaned 21 of the 35 shells; paid all the most of the State’s minimum tax and fees for reinstatement and revival; cleared most of the outstanding balances with the respective shell’s Transfer Agents; brought the 21 into compliance with the minimum reporting requirements using the alternative reporting systems available through the OTC Market Groups systems. The remaining 14 are waiting for access to the Edgar filing systems to start making necessary report available to meet the requirements. Of those 21, Alpharidge Capital has executed definite agreements to sell two of the shells for profit. In addition, except for minor disagreements of a unique merger clause that is of particular interest to Alpharidge, agreements for the sale of additional three shells are almost complete. Alpharidge is also incompliance with the Nevada court custodianship process reporting requirements.
As of September 30, 2021, total value of Entrepreneurship Development was $2,974,133, comprising of $0.3 million in capitalized legal fees, $1.4 million statutory equity stake, $0.7 million in State charter reinstatement fees paid, and $0.5 million in other costs.

| Concentrations of Credit Risk | Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of its cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions of high credit worthiness. The Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions within the United States which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to limits of approximately $250,000. The Company has not experienced any losses with regard to its bank accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risk of loss on its cash bank accounts. It is possible that at times, the company’s cash and cash equivalents with a particular financial institution may exceed any applicable government insurance limits. In such situation, the Company’s management would assess the financial strength and credit worthiness of any parties to which it extends funds, and as such, it believes that any associated credit risk exposures would be addressed and mitigated.

Measurement date for non-employees is the earlier of performance commitment date or the completion of services. The cost of employee services received in exchange for equity instruments is based on the grant date fair value of the equity instruments issued in accordance with ASC 718 “Compensation - Stock Compensation.” |
