Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2017

 

(Unaudited)

 

1. Summary of Business and Basis of Presentation

 

 

 

Organization and Business

 

 

US Highland, Inc. was originally formed as a limited liability company on February 5, 1999 under the name The Powerhouse, L.L.C. pursuant to the laws of the State of Oklahoma. On November 9, 2006, Powerhouse Productions, L.L.C. filed Articles of Conversion changing the entity from a limited liability company to a corporation under the name Harcom Productions, Inc. On January 25, 2010, Articles of Merger were filed with the State of Oklahoma merging U.S. Highland, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation into Harcom Productions, Inc. and the name of the corporation was changed to US Highland, Inc. US Highland, Inc. (the “Company”) is a recreational power sports Original Equipment Manufacturer (“OEM”), developing motorcycles, quads, single cylinder engines, and v-twin engines under its own brand and for other OEMs.

 

On September 23, 2015, the Company incorporated two wholly-owned subsidiaries, USH Distribution Corp., a Nevada corporation, and Powersports Brand Alliance, Inc., a Nevada corporation. The subsidiaries were formed to provide sales, marketing and distribution services of their power sport products and accessories.

 

On September 25, 2015, the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with M&M Sourcing Sdn. Bhd., a Malaysian entity (“M&M”) and jointly formed Lahva, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Lahva”). The Company’s and M&M’s equity stake in Lahva is 40% and 60%, respectively. This agreement has been cancelled.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, USH Distribution Corp., and Powersports Brand Alliance, Inc. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments unless otherwise indicated) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

 

Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such principles and the financial results for the periods presented may not be indicative of the full year’s results. The Company believes the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

 

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 8, 2016 (the “2016 Annual Report”).

 

Significant Accounting Policies

 

There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies to those previously disclosed in the 2016 Annual Report.

 

 
F-4
 
Table of Contents

 

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going-concern basis. The going concern basis assumes that assets are realized and liabilities are extinguished in the ordinary course of business at amounts disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. The Company has incurred recurring losses from operations, and as of June 30, 2017 current liabilities exceed current assets by $3,399,458 and the Company has an accumulated deficit of $75,708,593. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern depends upon its ability to obtain adequate funding to support its operations through continuing investments of debt and/or equity by qualified investors/creditors, internally generated working capital and monetization of intellectual property assets. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Management is currently pursuing a business strategy which includes raising the necessary funds to finance the Company’s development and marketing efforts.

 

Description of New Business Decisions

 

On June 15, 2017, Kevin G. Malone resigned as President and as a member of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company. The Board appointed Everett M. Dickson as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and the Board appointed Mr. Dickson to fill the Board seat vacated by Mr. Malone.

The note bears interest at 8% per annum compounded monthly, and principal and interest are due on July 31, 2014. In addition, so long as any amounts are due hereunder, the Company is obligated to remit to the lender 100% of all revenues, payments and receivables from the sale of the first 50 engines sold by the Company. The note is secured against substantially all of the assets of the Company.

 

 

 

 

 

The note may be prepaid by the Company without penalty with 30 days prior notice. The note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time at a conversion price equal to $0.02 per share and is subject to adjustment upon the issuance of certain dilutive instruments and other events. The conversion price was subsequently reduced to $0.01 per share upon the failure to file various reports with the SEC within 120 days of the issuance of the note.

 

Due to the potential adjustments to the conversion feature and the inability to conclude that the Company has enough unissued-authorized common shares to settle the warrants, the embedded conversion option and the warrants qualify for derivative accounting and bifurcation under ASC 815-15 Derivatives and Hedging. The initial fair value of the conversion feature of $6,714,279 and warrants of $3,169,531 resulted in a discount to the note payable of $500,000 and the recognition of a loss on derivatives of $9,383,810.

 

On July 24, 2014, the Company and the note holder agreed to extend the maturity date to December 31, 2014, and increase the interest rate to 12% starting on August 1, 2014. The Company accounted for the modification in accordance with ASC 405-20 and ASC 470-50-40. As the present value of the future cash flows was more than 10% different than the cash flows of the original debt, it was determined that the original and new debt instruments are substantially different and the Company treated the original convertible note extinguished and exchanged for a new convertible note. The Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $474,668. The Company also recognized the fair value of the embedded conversion feature of $24,501,757 as a derivative liability and reduced the value of the convertible loan to $nil.

 

On December 31, 2014, the Company and the note holder agreed to extend the maturity date to December 31, 2015. Interest shall accrue at 12% per annum but may be reduced to 8% for any period of time in which the interest is paid in cash and not accrued. The Company accounted for the modification in accordance with ASC 405-20 and ASC 470-50-40. As the present value of the future cash flows was more than 10% different than the cash flows of the original debt, it was determined that the original and new debt instruments are substantially different and the Company treated the original convertible note extinguished and exchanged for a new convertible note. The Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $411,820. The Company also recognized the fair value of the embedded conversion feature of $25,088,180 as a derivative liability and reduced the value of the convertible loan to $nil.

 

On December 31, 2015, the Company and the note holder agreed to extend the maturity date to December 31, 2016. Interest shall accrue at 12% per annum but may be reduced to 8% for any period of time in which the interest is paid in cash and not accrued. The Company accounted for the modification in accordance with ASC 405-20 and ASC 470-50-40. As the present value of the future cash flows was more than 10% different than the cash flows of the original debt, it was determined that the original and new debt instruments are substantially different and the Company treated the original convertible note extinguished and exchanged for a new convertible note. The Company recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt of $492,585. The Company also recognized the fair value of the embedded conversion feature of $16,507,415 as a derivative liability and reduced the value of the convertible loan to $nil.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company recorded total accretion of $500,000. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the carrying value of the note was $500,000.

b) On February 11, 2016, the Company entered into two convertible promissory notes for a total of $275,000, pursuant to which the Company received proceeds of $237,500, net of an original issue discount of $25,000 and legal fees of $12,500. The notes are convertible at a price equal to 60% of the lowest trading price of the Company’s common stock for the 20 prior trading days, bearing interest at 8% per annum and due on February 11, 2017. Due to these provisions, the embedded conversion options qualified for derivative accounting and bifurcation under ASC 815-15 Derivatives and Hedging . The initial fair value of the derivative liabilities of $308,492 resulted in a full discount to the note payable of $250,000 and the recognition of $59,492 as additional interest expense.

 

 

 

 

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the entire balance of the discounts and costs were recognized in full. At June 30, 2017, the carrying value of the notes was $275,000. These notes are past due as of the issuance of these financial statements.

  

 

c) On May 17, 2016, the Company entered into a convertible promissory note for $55,000, pursuant to which the Company received proceeds of $48,000, net of an original issue discount of $5,000 and legal fees of $2,000. The notes are convertible at a price equal to 55% of the lowest trading price of the Company’s common stock for the 20 prior trading days, bearing interest at 8% per annum and due on May 17, 2017. Due to these provisions, the embedded conversion options qualified for derivative accounting and bifurcation under ASC 815-15 Derivatives and Hedging . The initial fair value of the derivative liabilities of $95,047 resulted in a full discount to the note payable of $50,000 and the recognition of $45,047 as additional interest expense.

 

 

 

 

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recorded total accretion of $29,862 and amortization of deferred financing cost of $500. At June 30, 2017, the carrying value of the note was $55,000. This note is past due as of the issuance of these financial statements.

 

5. Related Party Transactions

 

 

a) At June 30, 2017, the Company owed a director of the Company $29,000 for wages and consulting fees. In addition, the Company owes the director of the Company accrued interest of $982 and $914 at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 respectively, which has been included in accrued liabilities.

 

6. Derivative Liabilities

 

 

 

The embedded conversion options of the Company’s convertible debentures described in Note 4 contain conversion features that qualify for embedded derivative classification. The fair value of these liabilities will be re-measured at the end of every reporting period and the change in fair value will be reported in the statement of operations as a gain or loss on derivative financial instruments.

 

The table below sets forth a summary of changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities:

The Company uses Level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology for the warrant derivative liabilities and embedded conversion option liabilities as their fair values were determined by using the Black- Scholes option pricing model based on various assumptions. The model incorporates the price of a share of the Company’s common stock (as quoted on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board), volatility, risk free rate, dividend rate and estimated life. Significant changes in any of these inputs in isolation would result in a significant change in the fair value measurement. As, required, these are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table shows the assumptions used in the calculations:

a) On September 30, 2015, the Company designated 3,500,000 shares of the Company’s 3,550,000 authorized “blank check” preferred stock as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock shall, with respect to dividend rights, rights on liquidation, winding up and dissolution, rank senior to (i) all classes of common stock of the Company and (ii) any class or series of capital stock of the Company hereafter created (unless, with the consent of the holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock). The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock shall not entitled to receive any dividends and shall have the voting equivalency of 10 shares of common stock. Each holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right at any time or from time to time from and after the day immediately following the date the Series A Preferred Stock is first issued, to convert each share of Series A Preferred Stock into 10 fully-paid and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company. In connection with any conversion hereunder, each holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock if such conversion would cause such holder or any of its assignees to beneficially own more than 4.99% of the common stock of the Company.

 

 

 

 

b) On September 30, 2015, the Company issued an aggregate of 3,381,520 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock at a fair value of $12,849,776 to settle convertible and promissory notes in the amount of $1,487,000 and accrued interest of $203,760. The Company recorded a gain on settlement of debt of $1,495,529.

 

 

 

 

c) On November 20, 2015, the Company designated 10,000 shares of the Company’s 3,550,000 authorized “blank check” preferred stock as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock shall, with respect to dividend rights, rights on liquidation, winding up and dissolution, rank senior to (i) all classes of common stock of the Company and (ii) any class or series of capital stock of the Company hereafter created (unless, with the consent of the holders of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock). The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall not entitled to receive any dividends and shall have the voting equivalency of 4,000 shares of common stock. Each holder of Series B Preferred Stock shall have the right at any time or from time to time from and after the day immediately following the date the Series B Preferred Stock is first issued, to convert each share of Series B Preferred Stock into 4,000 fully-paid and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company. In connection with any conversion hereunder, each holder of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock if such conversion occurred would cause such holder or any of its assignees to beneficially own more than 4.99% of the common stock of the Company.

 

8. Common Stock

 

 

a) During August, 2016, the Company issued 38,479,487 shares of common stock to settle $47,904 on debt conversions with two significant shareholders of the Company.

 

 

 

 

b) During September, 2016, the Company issued 115,989,052 shares of common stock to settle $56,552 on a debt conversion with two significant shareholders of the Company.

e) As of June 30, 2017, there was an insufficient amount of the Company’s authorized common stock to satisfy the potential number of shares that would be required to satisfy the outstanding options, warrants and convertible debt into common stock. In accordance with ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging, the Company analyzed which contracts classify as equity through the following sequencing methodology: Contracts with no maturity date (convertible preferred shares), then contracts with the earliest maturity date first. Under this methodology, the management determined there was no additional liability as there is already a derivative liability recorded for the embedded conversion feature.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

Forward Looking Statements

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. For this purpose, any statements contained in this Report that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking information includes statements relating to future actions, prospective products, future performance or results of current or anticipated products, sales and marketing efforts, costs and expenses, interest rates, outcome of contingencies, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, business strategies, cost savings, objectives of management, and other matters. You can identify forward-looking statements by those that are not historical in nature, particularly those that use terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “contemplates,” “estimates,” “believes,” “plans,” “projected,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of these similar terms. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking information to encourage companies to provide prospective information about themselves without fear of litigation so long as that information is identified as forward-looking and is accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the information.

 

These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that we cannot predict. In evaluating these forward-looking statements, you should consider various factors, including the following: (a) those risks and uncertainties related to general economic conditions, (b) whether we are able to manage our planned growth efficiently and operate profitable operations, (c) whether we are able to generate sufficient revenues or obtain financing to sustain and grow our operations, (d) whether we are able to successfully fulfill our primary requirements for cash, which are explained below under “Liquidity and Capital Resources”. We assume no obligation to update forward-looking statements, except as otherwise required under the applicable federal securities laws. Unless stated otherwise, terms such as the “Company,” “US Highland,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and similar terms shall refer to US Highland, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation, and its subsidiaries.

 

Plan of Operations

 

US Highland, Inc. was originally formed as a limited liability company on February 5, 1999 under the name The Powerhouse, L.L.C. pursuant to the laws of the State of Oklahoma. On November 9, 2006, Powerhouse Productions, L.L.C. filed Articles of Conversion changing the entity from a limited liability company to a corporation under the name Harcom Productions, Inc. On January 25, 2010, Articles of Merger were filed with the State of Oklahoma merging U.S. Highland, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation into Harcom Productions, Inc. and the name of the corporation was changed to US Highland, Inc. US Highland, Inc. (the “Company”) is a recreational power sports Original Equipment Manufacturer (“OEM”), developing motorcycles, quads, single cylinder engines, and v-twin engines under its own brand and for other OEMs.

 

The Company exited the recreational power sports OEM and leisure activity vehicles markets and is evaluating alternative means to generate ongoing streams of revenue.

 

Results of Operations

 

The three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2017 compared to the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2016

 

Revenues

 

The Company had no revenues.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Operating general and administrative expenses decreased 91% due to a decrease in ongoing business operations. Similarly, external professional fees decreased to $0 in connection with the decreased operating activity.

 

Net Income (Loss)

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2017 interest expense was $42,721, a 341% decrease over the June 30, 2016 expense of $188,241. This was due to issuances of convertible notes and amortization of the related discount for the notes issued during 2016, in the current quarter the discount was fully amortized. In addition, the Company experienced a decrease in the fair value of its derivatives over the prior-year periods from the conversion of promissory notes during the prior year.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Initially, because the Company borrowed funds on a convertible basis, the Company’s cash position was positive. Overall, however, the Company, experienced a decreased cash position due to the decrease in ongoing business operations, because all operating expenses were paid out of cash on hand. In addition, the Company experienced a decrease in non-cash resources in connection the conversion of promissory notes.

Going Concern

 

The Company has no revenues and has incurred net losses. In addition, at June 30, 2017, there was an accumulated deficit of $75,708,593. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

There can be no assurance that sufficient funds required during the next year or thereafter will be generated from operations or available from external sources such as debt or equity financings, or other potential sources. The inability to generate cash flow from operations or to raise capital from external sources will force the Company to substantially curtail and cease operations, therefore, having a material adverse effect on its business. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any funds, if available, will possess attractive terms or not have a significant dilutive effect on the Company’s existing stockholders.

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “‘Exchange Act’“). Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based upon our evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2016 in ensuring that material information that we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. The effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting is subject to various inherent limitations, including cost limitations, judgments used in decision making, assumptions about the likelihood of future events, the soundness of our systems, the possibility of human error, and the risk of fraud. Moreover, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions and the risk that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate over time. Because of these limitations, there can be no assurance that any system of disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will be successful in preventing all errors or fraud or in making all material information known in a timely manner to the appropriate levels of management.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item. 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business.

The Company and the directors also agreed to execute and deliver a pocket judgement against them which shall not be filed unless the Company fails to make the scheduled payments under the settlement agreement.

 

On February 13, 2017, Baum Glass & Jayne PLLC (“Plaintiff”) obtained a default judgment against the Company in the amount of $27,083.74. Plaintiff has not attempted enforced collection. This amount was included in the accounts payable as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016
