1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND BUSINESS

Basis of presentation and consolidation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Surge Holdings, Inc. (“Holdings”), incorporated in Nevada on August 18, 2006, and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Ksix Media, Inc. (“Media”), incorporated in Nevada on November 5, 2014, Ksix, LLC (“KSIX”), a Nevada limited liability company that was formed on September 14, 2011, Surge Payment Systems, LLC (Formerly known as Blvd. Media Group, LLC) (“BMG”), a Nevada limited liability company that was formed on January 29, 2009, DigitizeIQ, LLC (“DIQ”) an Illinois limited liability company that was formed on July 23, 2014 and Surge Crypto Currency Mining, Inc. (Formerly known as North American Exploration, Inc.) (“NAE”), a Nevada corporation that was incorporated on August 18, 2006 (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not contain all information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all of the adjustments necessary (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) to present the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2017 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future period. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the SEC on December 11, 2017.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Fair value measurements

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, which defines fair value as used in numerous accounting pronouncements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements.

The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying amounts of our short and long term credit obligations approximate fair value because the effective yields on these obligations, which include contractual interest rates taken together with other features such as concurrent issuances of warrants and/or embedded conversion options, are comparable to rates of returns for instruments of similar credit risk.

6

ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

● Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

● Level 2 — quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable.

● Level 3 — inputs that are unobservable (for example cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions).

The derivative liability in connection with the conversion feature of the convertible debt, classified as a Level 3 liability, is the only financial liability measure at fair value on a recurring basis.

The change in the Level 3 financial instrument is as follows:

Balance, December 31, 2016	$	584,168
Issued during the six months ended June 30, 2017		69,920
Converted		(473,029	)
Change in fair value recognized in operations		587,548
Balance, June 30, 2017	$	768,607

The estimated fair value of the derivative instruments was valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, using the following assumptions as of June 30, 2017:

Estimated dividends	None
Expected volatility		210.49	%
Risk free interest rate		2.67	%
Expected term		.01-36 months

Recent accounting pronouncements

We have evaluated all recent accounting pronouncements as issued by the FASB in the form of Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) through the date these financial statements were available to be issued and find no recent accounting pronouncements that would have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.

3 GOING CONCERN

The Company has not established sources of revenues sufficient to fund the development of its business, or to pay projected operating expenses and commitments for the next year. The Company has a working capital deficit of $3,271,963, an accumulated deficit of $8,015,507 at June 30, 2017, and incurred losses for the past two years. These factors, among others, create an uncertainty about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company projects that it should be cash flow positive after the end of the 2nd quarter ended June 30, 2018 from ongoing operations by the combination of increased cash flow from its current subsidiaries, as well as restructuring our current debt burden. The Company has executed an agreement with a FINRA licensed broker, as well as several institutional investors, to bring in equity investments to pay down existing debt obligations, cover short term shortfalls, and complete proposed acquisitions. Additionally, the Company is negotiating the closing of the acquisition of True Wireless, LLC, (“TW”) an Oklahoma Limited Liability Company. Upon the completion of the potential acquisition of TW as a wholly owned subsidiary, the Company will become cash flow positive. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the success of this plan.

7

The Company’s financial statements have been presented on the basis that it continues as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business, and do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

4 CREDIT CARD LIABILITY

The Company previously utilized a credit card issued in the name of DIQ to pay for certain of its trade obligations. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company’s credit card liability was $336,726 and $336,726, respectively.

5 NOTES PAYABLE AND LONG-TERM DEBT – RELATED PARTY

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, notes payable and long-term debt due to a related party consists of:

	June 30, 2017		December 31, 2016
Note payable to director due in four equal annual installments of $26,875 on April 28 of each year		107,500		107,500
Less debt discount		-		-

Less current portion - related party		80,625		53,750
Long-term debt - related party	$	26,875	$	53,750

The payment due April 28, 2016 has not been made. Pursuant to the terms of the note, the note begins to accrue interest at 6% per annum and the past due portion is convertible into the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to 70% of the current price of the common stock. The Company has determined that the conversion feature for the past due portion of the note constitutes a derivative which has been bifurcated from the note and recorded as a derivative liability, with a corresponding discount recorded to the note. Accrued interest was $1,088 at December 31, 2016 and $2,166 at June 30, 2017.

¹ The Convertible Promissory Note was modified on January 19, 2016 to release the pledge of the holder’s former membership units in Ksix and BMG, to make the note convertible into the Company’s common stock and to require an extra payment of $100,000 due within 90 days. The terms of the Convertible Note provided in the event the Note was not paid prior to the Maturity Date (January 1, 2017) or that payments are not made to the holder by the due date ($10,000 on the 1^st and 15^th of each month), the holder shall have the right thereafter, exercisable in whole or in part, to convert the outstanding principal or payment then due into shares of the common stock of the Company. The Convertible Promissory Note provided the note conversion price was determined by taking the lowest closing price of the Company’s common stock in the previous ten trading days and then applying a 45% discount. On March 23, 2016, the parties entered into an Addendum to the Convertible Promissory Note to allow an immediate conversion of the $20,000 payments due in April 2016 at the 45% discount rate; to modify the conversion discount rate from 45% of the lowest price of the previous ten trading days prior to conversion to 35% of the average price of the previous ten trading days prior to conversion for any future conversions; and to require an additional payment of $30,000 within sixty days. The Company evaluated the embedded conversion feature for derivative treatment and the debt discount is fully amortized at December 31, 2016.

10

The original note and the convertible promissory note provided for semi-monthly payments of $10,000 due on the 1^st and 15^th of the month, with any unpaid balance due on January 1, 2017. If the Company paid the unpaid balance on December 31, 2016, they were allowed a discount of $200,000 from the remaining balance. In addition, the modification and addendum, provided for two additional payments during 2016. Within 90 days of January 19, 2016, the Company was required to make an additional payment of $100,000 and within 60 days of March 23, 2016, the Company was required to make an additional payment of $30,000. As of June 30, 2017 the total balance is past due. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, $290,000 of the principal balance together with $21,929 in accrued interest was converted into common stock.

Accordingly, a debt discount at 5% per annum was calculated for the notes and was amortized to interest expense until the due date of the notes.

³ Senior Secured Credit Facility Agreement - On February 24, 2016, the Company executed a Senior Secured Credit Facility Agreement (“Senior Credit Facility”) in the maximum amount of $5,000,000 together with a Convertible Promissory Note (“Convertible Note”) in the amount of $750,000 with TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP (“TCA”). The initial loan advance was $400,000 and requires monthly interest only payments for two months and then sixteen monthly payments of $28,306, including interest at 18% per annum. The obligation is secured by substantially all assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. The payment due August 29, 2016 was acquired by Salksanna LLC on September 13, 2016 (See ⁶ below). The payment due September 29, 2016 was acquired by Salksanna, LLC on October 7, 2016 and the payment due October 29, 2016 was acquired by Salksanna, LLC on December 21, 2016. (See ⁶ below).

The Senior Credit Facility includes a provision for advisory fees in the amount of $300,000 which was paid when the Company issued 1,782,000 shares of its common stock to TCA (the “Advisory Shares”) on or about March 24, 2016. If TCA is unable to collect the $300,000 from sales of the Advisory Shares within twelve months, the Company is obligated to issue additional shares to TCA until TCA is able to collect the full $300,000. Should TCA still be unable to collect the full $300,000, and after at least one year, TCA can require the Company to redeem any remaining shares for an amount equal to $300,000 less the sales proceeds that TCA has collected. In the event TCA sells the Advisory Shares for more than $300,000, the excess proceeds, together with unsold common shares will be returned to the Company. As long as there is no default under the terms of the Senior Credit Facility, TCA is limited to weekly sales of the Advisory Shares equal to no more than 20% of the average weekly volume of the Company’s common stock on its principal trading market. The stock was valued at the trading price on the date of the agreement and the resulting $300,000 was included as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability and was fully amortized at December 31, 2016.

The Convertible Note is convertible into the Common Stock of the Company upon the event of: (1) a default under any of the loan documents between the Company and TCA; or (2) mutual agreement between the Company and TCA, at which time TCA may convert all or a portion of the outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest into shares of the Common Stock of the Company calculated by the conversion amount divided by 85% of the lowest of the daily weighted average price of the Company’s Common Stock during five business days immediately prior to the date of the request of conversion (the “Conversion”). Pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Note, TCA is limited to beneficial ownership of not more than 4.99% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Company after taking into effect the Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Conversion.

11

The TCA note was restructured effective August 29, 2016, September 29, 2016 and October 29, 2016 to accommodate the payment of the amounts due on those dates by Salksanna, LLC and the issue by the Company of convertible notes payable to Salksanna for the amounts of those payments. (See ⁶ below.) The restructured note to TCA added $25,146 to each payment for the loan fee originally paid with common stock. When the fee is paid in full, the 1,782,000 shares will be returned to the Company. The payments due TCA on November 29, 2016 and December 29, 2016 are currently unpaid and this default resulted in the note becoming convertible into common stock of the Company.

The Company evaluated the resulting embedded conversion feature for derivative treatment and recorded an initial derivative liability and debt discount of $198,524. The debt discount was fully amortized at December 31, 2016.

The Company is also responsible for other transaction, due diligence and legal fees of $42,500 if it draws the remaining $350,000 initially committed.

The proceeds from the loan were used to pay a $250,000 note to the seller of DIQ and for working capital.

⁴ Calvary Fund I, LP (formerly Pinz Capital International, L.P.) Note – The Calvary note payable was due in installments of $25,000 plus accrued interest on November 25, 2016; $18,750 plus accrued interest on December 25, 2016; $14,063 plus accrued interest on January 25, 2017 and a final payment of the unpaid balance plus accrued interest on May 25, 2017. The agreement provides for limitations on additional indebtedness. If an event of default, as defined in the agreement, occurs and if not cured within ten days, the note becomes convertible into the Company’s common stock at a rate equal to 65% of the average VWAP over the previous 5 trading days. If the event of default is for non-payment of any installment due, the amount convertible is limited to the amount of the unpaid installment. Pinz Capital is controlled by a director of the Company. Calvary Fund I, LP acquired the note from Pinz Capital in December 2016.

The payments due November 25, 2016 and December 25, 2016 were not made. As a result, the Company was penalized $30,000, which was added to the note balance and due to other past due obligations, it was determined the total balance was in default and due, making the note convertible. Accordingly, a debt discount was recorded on November 25, 2016 for $52,889. The debt discount was fully amortized at December 31, 2016.

⁵ Convertible note payable to River North Equity, LLC (“RNE”)- The Company evaluated the embedded conversion for derivative treatment and recorded an initial derivative liability and debt discount of $23,190. The debt discount is fully amortized at June 30, 2017.

The Company has entered into a number of agreements with RNE wherein RNE has agreed to invest up to $3,000,000 in the common stock of the Company. These agreements require an effective Registration Statement to be on file by the Company and would allow the Company to require RNE to purchase the Company’s common stock at 90% of the lowest trading price of the Company’s common stock during the previous five trading days. The Company has not yet filed a Registration Statement with the SEC.

⁶ The Company issued three convertible notes to Salksanna, LLC in exchange for payments made by Salksanna to TCA. The first note in the amount of $53,452 was converted into 1,953,399 shares of the Company’s common stock. The second note in the original amount of $53,452 was partially converted with $11,500 in principal and $44 in accrued interest converted into 383,525 shares of the Company’s common stock. The conversion of the notes resulted in a loss on debt extinguishment of $107,104 in 2016.

At June 30, 2017, the remaining notes with a principal balance of $95,405 have a debt discount of $51,572.

⁷ In November 2016, the Company entered into four working capital notes in the original amount of $245,000 which require daily payments aggregating $2,956. The Company entered into two additional notes in the total amount of $140,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and made total repayment of $265,262 during the six months ended June 30, 2017 on these notes.

12

Derivative liability

The Company has determined that the conversion feature embedded in the notes referred to above that contain a potential variable conversion amount constitutes a derivative which has been bifurcated from the note and recorded as a derivative liability, with a corresponding discount recorded to the associated debt. The excess of the derivative value over the face amount of the note, if any, is recorded immediately to interest expense at inception.

The estimated fair value of the derivative instruments was valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, using the following assumptions:

Estimated dividends	None
Expected volatility	207.20% to 238.94	%
Risk free interest rate	2.61% to 2.89	%
Expected term	.01 to 36 months

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

This statement contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Act. Discussions containing such forward-looking statements may be found throughout this statement. Actual events or results may differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including the matters set forth in this statement. The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016 and for the three and six months then ended includes the accounts of Holdings and its wholly owned subsidiaries during the period owned by Holdings.

COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2017 AND 2016

Revenues during the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 consisted of the following:

	2017		2016
Revenue	$	373,482	$	1,007,039
Cost of revenue		156,926		779,908
Gross profit	$	216,556	$	227,131

KSIX provides performance based marketing solutions to drive traffic and conversions within a Cost-Per-Lead (“CPL”) business model. KSIX works directly with advertisers and other networks to promote advertiser campaigns through their affiliates. KSIX revenues decreased $203,604 (63%) from $323,266 to $119,662 during the three months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the prior year period. Lack of funding has continued to cause revenues to decline.

DIQ’s revenues from survey generation and landing page optimization amounted to $253,820 in the three months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to $683,773 during the three months ended June 30, 2016. The decline in revenue is primarily a result of a major customer discontinuing their business in 2016 and the Company finding new customers. Lack of funding has also contributed to the decline in revenues.

Despite the decline in business, the gross profit percentage has improved to 58% in the 2017 period from 22.6% in the 2016 period. The Company experienced losses from customer turnover in the 2016 period which resulted in a substantially reduced gross profit.

Costs and expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were as follows:

	2017		2016
Depreciation and amortization	$	35,038	$	231,926
Selling, general and administrative		534,305		1,028,709
Total	$	569,343	$	1,260,635

Depreciation and amortization decreased $196,888 (84.9%) from $231,926 in the 2016 quarter to $35,038 in the 2017 quarter. The decrease is primarily the result of impairing intangible assets in 2016 that are no longer being amortized in 2017 and the decline in DIQ amortization of approximately $100,000 due to completion of its appraisal in the fourth quarter of 2016 which resulted in lower amortization expense.

19

Selling, general and administrative expense during the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 is as follows:

	2017		2016
Contractors and consultants	$	240,967	$	743,440
Compensation		105,481		124,312
Professional services		34,750		38,825
Officer compensation		59,996		36,768
Other		64,286		61,022
Advertising and marketing		28,825		24,342
Total	$	534,305	$	1,028,709

Total selling, general and administrative expense decreased $494,404 (48.1%) from $1,028,709 in the 2016 period to $534,305 in the 2017 period. The detail changes are discussed below:

● Contractors and consultants decreased from $743,440 in the 2016 period to $240,967 in the 2017 period. The 2016 period included a number of consultants that were paid with common stock and based on the valuations of the stock have resulted in a higher expense that might have been the case had the Company been able to pay cash. The 2016 period included $622,987 of this cost.

● Compensation decreased $18,831 (15.1%) from the 2016 amount of $124,312 to the 2017 amount of $105,481.

● Professional services decreased from $38,825 in the 2016 period to $34,750 in the 2017 period.

● Other costs increased $3,264 from $61,022 in the 2016 period to $64,286 in the 2017 period.

● Advertising and marketing costs increased $4,483 (18.4%) from $24,342 in the 2016 period to $28,825 in the 2017 period. This is primarily a result of an increase in DIQ costs.

Other expense during the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 is as follows:

	2017			2016
Interest expense	$	136,963		$	73,200
Change in fair value of derivative liability		537,349			-
Other income		-			(5,844	)
Gain on debt settlement		(7,151	)		-
Total	$	667,161		$	67,356

Interest expense was much lower in the 2016 period than the same period in 2017. A large portion of the increase in 2017 expense is the amortization of debt discount, which amounted to $54,669. There was zero in 2016.

The Company has determined that the conversion feature embedded in the majority of it notes payable contain a potential variable conversion amount which constitutes a derivative which has been bifurcated from the note and recorded as a derivative liability, with a corresponding discount recorded to the associated debt. The excess of the derivative value over the face amount of the note, if any, is recorded immediately to interest expense at inception. At the end of each reporting period these derivatives are revalued with the change in value recorded in change in value of derivatives. This did not arise until after the first quarter of 2016.

The Company has issued its common stock in exchange for a portion of its convertible notes payable, which resulted in a gain during the 2017 period.

COMPARISON OF SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2017 AND 2016

Revenues during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 consisted of the following:

	2017		2016
Revenue	$	823,882	$	2,394,586
Cost of revenue		308,351		1,829,607
Gross profit	$	515,531	$	564,979

KSIX provides performance based marketing solutions to drive traffic and conversions within a Cost-Per-Lead (“CPL”) business model. KSIX works directly with advertisers and other networks to promote advertiser campaigns through their affiliates. KSIX revenues decreased $382,918 (58.5%) from $655,086 to $272,168 during the six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the prior year period. Lack of funding has continued to cause revenues to decline.

DIQ’s revenues from survey generation and landing page optimization amounted to $551,714 in the six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to $1,735,603 during the six months ended June 30, 2016. The decline in revenue is primarily a result of a major customer discontinuing their business in 2016 and the Company finding new customers. Lack of funding has also contributed to the decline in revenues.

Despite the decline in business, the gross profit percentage has improved to 62.6% in the 2017 period from 23.6% in the 2016 period. The Company experienced losses from customer turnover in the 2016 period which resulted in a substantially reduced gross profit.

Costs and expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were as follows:

	2017		2016
Depreciation and amortization	$	70,122	$	463,852
Selling, general and administrative		1,567,496		1,714,040
Total	$	1,637,618	$	2,177,892

Depreciation and amortization decreased $393,730 (84.9%) from $463,852 in the 2016 quarter to $70,122 in the 2017 period. The decrease is primarily the result of impairing intangible assets in 2016 that are no longer being amortized in 2017 and the decline in DIQ amortization of approximately $200,000 due to completion of its appraisal in the fourth quarter of 2016 which resulted in lower amortization expense.

Selling, general and administrative expense during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 is as follows:

	2017		2016
Contractors and consultants	$	981,255	$	850,660
Compensation		220,423		260,277
Professional services		66,519		185,473
Officer compensation		119,992		263,536
Other		106,072		116,270
Advertising and marketing		73,235		37,824
Total	$	1,567,496	$	1,714,040

Total selling, general and administrative expense decreased $146,544 (8.5%) from $1,714,040 in the 2016 period to $1,567,496 in the 2017 period. The detail changes are discussed below:

● Contractors and consultants increased from $850,660 in the 2016 period to $981,255 in the 2017 period ($130,595)(15.3%). The majority of the consulting fees have been paid with common stock. The increase in 2017 is primarily related to consulting fees paid associated with the pending acquisition of TW.

● Compensation decreased $39,854 (15.3%) from the 2016 amount of $260,277 to the 2017 amount of $220,423.

● Professional services decreased from $185,473 in the 2016 period to $66,519 in the 2017 period. This decrease is primarily from issuing common stock to an attorney in the 2016 period.

● Officer compensation decreased from $263,536 in the 2016 period to $119,992 in the 2017 period. The 2016 period included $190,000 of value assigned to the preferred stock issued to the Company’s CEO at the time.

● Other costs decreased $10,198.

● Advertising and marketing costs increased $35,411 (93.6%) from $37,824 in the 2016 period to $73,235 in the 2017 period. This is primarily a result of an increase in DIQ costs.

Other expense during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 is as follows:

	2017			2016
Interest expense	$	280,803		$	108,436
Change in fair value of derivative liability		587,548			-
Other income		-			(5,844	)
Gain on debt settlement		(2,913	)		-
Total	$	865,438		$	102,592

Interest expense was much lower in the 2016 period than the same period in 2017. A large portion of the increase in 2017 expense is the amortization of debt discount, which amounted to $80,331. There was $2,860 in 2016.

The Company has determined that the conversion feature embedded in the majority of it notes payable contain a potential variable conversion amount which constitutes a derivative which has been bifurcated from the note and recorded as a derivative liability, with a corresponding discount recorded to the associated debt. The excess of the derivative value over the face amount of the note, if any, is recorded immediately to interest expense at inception. At the end of each reporting period these derivatives are revalued with the change in value recorded in change in value of derivatives. This did not arise until after the first quarter of 2016.

The Company has issued its common stock in exchange for a portion of its convertible notes payable, which resulted in a gain during the 2017 period.

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND GOING CONCERN

At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our current assets were $456,231 and $758,837, respectively, and our current liabilities were $3,728,194 and $4,059,894, respectively, which resulted in a working capital deficit of $3,271,963 and $3,301,057, respectively.

Total assets at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 amounted to $3,184,518 and $2,357,246, respectively. At June 30, 2017, total assets consisted of current assets of $456,231, net property and equipment of $12,982, net intangible assets of $148,523, goodwill of $866,782 and deposits on investments in the amount of $1,700,000, as compared to current assets of $758,837, net property and equipment of $14,432, net intangible assets of $217,195, goodwill of $866,782 and deposits on investments in the amount of $500,000 at December 31, 2016.

At June 30, 2017, our total liabilities of $3,780,382 decreased $391,913 from $4,172,295 at December 31, 2016.

The following table sets forth the major sources and uses of cash for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

	2017			2016
Net cash used in operating activities	$	(205,265	)	$	(293,608	)
Net cash used in investing activities		-			-
Net cash provided by financing activities		207,737			287,320
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents	$	2,472		$	(6,288	)

At June 30, 2017, the Company had the following material commitments and contingencies.

Notes payable and long-term debt - $1,594,912 - See Note 5 and Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Advances from related party - $389,502 balance owed on non-interest bearing basis. See Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Cash requirements and capital expenditures – The Company has not had any capital expenditures during the six months ended June 30, 2017, which required cash. At the current level of operations, the Company has to borrow funds to meet basic operating costs. The Company plans to use debt and equity financing to meet the cash requirements of the TW acquisition.

Known trends and uncertainties – The Company is planning to acquire other businesses that are similar to its operations. The uncertainty of the economy may increase the difficulty of raising funds to support the planned business expansion.

Evaluation of the amounts and certainty of cash flows –The Company is still learning the business of DIQ and has experienced operating losses during the initial operation. During 2017, profitability of the DIQ operations has improved, although the volume of business has substantially decline from the earlier periods. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to replace the lost business and be able to fund operations in the future.

Going Concern – The Company has not established sources of revenues sufficient to fund the development of its business, or to pay projected operating expenses and commitments for the next year. The Company has a working capital deficit of $3,271,963, an accumulated deficit of $8,015,507 at June 30, 2017, and incurred losses for the past two years. These factors, among others, create an uncertainty about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company projects that it should be cash flow positive by the 3rd quarter ended September 30, 2018 from ongoing operations by the combination of increased cash flow from its current subsidiaries, as well as lowering our current debt burden and completing the acquisition of TW. Currently, the Company is negotiating with several institutional investors for equity investment which will be used to pay down existing debt obligations and cover any operational shortfalls in the short term. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the success of this plan.

The Company’s financial statements have been presented on the basis that it continues as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business, and do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that 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 are material to investors.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 of the Consolidated Financial Statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements include: the valuation of the fair value of derivative liabilities, the estimated useful lives and impairment of property, equipment, and intangible assets and the valuation of deferred tax assets.

Item 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable.

Item 4: Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Under the PCAOB standards, a control deficiency exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit the attention by those responsible for oversight of the company’s financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), as of June 30, 2017. Our management has determined that, as of June 30, 2017, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not effective due to a lack of segregation of duties, lack of an audit committee, and lack of documented controls. The Company has undergone a complete change of management and is in process of developing the necessary controls and procedures.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

The Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer determined that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to a lack of segregation of duties, lack of an audit committee and lack of documented controls. There have been no other significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls during the quarter ended June 30, 2017, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
