NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

The interim financial statements included herein, presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles and stated in US dollars, have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. It is suggested that these interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 and notes thereto included in the Company’s 8-K current report. The Company follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim reports.

Results of operations for the interim period are not indicative of annual results.

Organization

The sole proprietorship was formed and a doing business as was filed on January 11, 2013 (Date of Inception) under the laws of the State of California, as DBA Blackcraft Cult.

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to exploration stage enterprises, and are expressed in U.S. dollars. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31.

On January 15, 2014, the Company entered into Contribution Agreement with Blackcraft Emoji Incorporated, a California corporation (“BEI”), whereby they contributed 100% of the assets, liabilities and operations of the Company in exchange for 148,349,497 shares of BEI. Prior to the Contribution Agreement, BEI had 1,000 shares issued and outstanding.

On March 21, 2014, BEI entered into an Acquisiton Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among Merculite Sub Co (“Sub Co”), a Nevada corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of BCC, and Blackcraft Cult, Inc. (“BCC”), a Nevada corporation; Sub Co and BEI being the constituent entities in the Merger. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement BCC intends to issue 2,234,580 shares of its Rule 144 restricted common stock in exchange for 100% of BEI’s issued and outstanding common stock. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger, Sub co will be merged with BEI and Sub Co will cease to exist and BEI will become a wholly owned-subsidiary of BCC. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, the Merger closed on March 27, 2014 (the “Closing Date”). The Merger, upon closing will provide BCC with the ownership of 100% of BEI.

The Merger Agreement contains conditions to closing which include: (i) BCC issuing 2,234,580 shares of restricted common stock in exchange for 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of BEI, and (ii) auditable financial statements of BEI, prepared pursuant to Regulation S-X. The audited financial statements of BEI shall be completed and presented to the Company for filing with a Form 8-K, as required by Item 2.01 and Item 9.01 of Form 8-K, within 4 days of the Closing Date of the Merger.

For accounting purposes, the acquisition of the BEI by BCC has been accounted for as a recapitalization, similar to a reverse acquisition except no goodwill is recorded, whereby the private company, BEI, in substance acquired a non-operational public company (BCC) with nominal assets and liabilities for the purpose of becoming a public company. Accordingly, BEI is considered the acquirer for accounting purposes and thus, the historical financials are primarily that of BEI. As a result of this transaction, BCC, Inc. changed its business direction and is now a beverage business. Additionally, the Company changed its name from Merculite Distributing, Inc. to Blackcraft Cult, Inc.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Nature of operations

Currently, the Company’s operations are retail and wholesale sales of merchandise including clothing, hats, etc.

Inventory

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (average cost) or market (net realizable value). As of September 30, 2016, the Company had raw materials, work in process inventory, and finished goods inventory of $6,333, $10,316 and $223,305, respectively.

Revenue recognition

The Company’s records revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectability is probable. The Company records revenue from the sale of merchandise upon shipment or delivery of the products to the customer. The Company also records the shipping income when the products are sent to the customer.

Sales returns and allowances

The Company has a 14 day return/exchange policy and is accepted for items that are in a like new condition. The return postage is the responsibility of the customer except for those items which are the result of the Company’s improper filling of the order.

Income taxes

For financial reporting purposes, the Company has elected to use the taxes payable method. Under this method, income tax expense represents the amount of income tax the Company expects to pay based on the Company’s current year taxable income. Income tax for the period is provided at the applicable tax rate on taxable income.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Fair value of financial instruments

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2016. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include cash, prepaid expenses and accounts payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for cash and payables because they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values or they are payable on demand.

Level 1: The preferred inputs to valuation efforts are “quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities,” with the caveat that the reporting entity must have access to that market. Information at this level is based on direct observations of transactions involving the same assets and liabilities, not assumptions, and thus offers superior reliability. However, relatively few items, especially physical assets, actually trade in active markets.

Level 2: FASB acknowledged that active markets for identical assets and liabilities are relatively uncommon and, even when they do exist, they may be too thin to provide reliable information. To deal with this shortage of direct data, the board provided a second level of inputs that can be applied in three , situations.

Level 3: If inputs from levels 1 and 2 are not available, FASB acknowledges that fair value measures of many assets and liabilities are less precise. The board describes Level 3 inputs as “unobservable,” and limits their use by saying they “shall be used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available.” This category allows “for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date”. Earlier in the standard, FASB explains that “observable inputs” are gathered from sources other than the reporting company and that they are expected to reflect assumptions made by market participants.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Stock-based compensation

The Company records stock based compensation in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 505 and 718 which requires the Company to recognize expenses related to the fair value of its employee stock option awards. This eliminates accounting for share-based compensation transactions using the intrinsic value and requires instead that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method. The Company recognizes the cost of all share-based awards on a graded vesting basis over the vesting period of the award.

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with FASB ASC 718-10 and the conclusions reached by the FASB ASC 505-50. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by FASB ASC 505-50.

Recent pronouncements

The Company has evaluated recent accounting pronouncements through the filing date and believes that none of them will have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 2 - FIXED ASSETS

After taking into account cost of sales of $241,310 during the three months ended September 30, 2016, gross profit during the period totaled $409,673. In comparison, cost of sales during the quarter ended September 30, 2015 was $223,906, leading to a gross profit of $242,633.

During the nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, our revenues were distributed, as follows:


					Change
Revenue Source	2016		2015		$		%
Product sales	$	1,480,696	$	1,185,932	$	294,764	25 %
Shipping income		105,896		-		105,896	- %

Cost of sales in the nine month period ended September 30, 2016 was $753,041, which was $255,639 higher than cost of sales of $497,402 in the comparable period ended September 30, 2015. Resultant gross profit during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 was $1,018,155 and $833,763, respectively.

There can be no assurance that we will continue to experience similar revenue growth in future periods, sustain current revenue levels or that we will be able to replace revenues from our current advertisers with revenues from others.

Operating Expenses

In the course of our operations, we incur operating expenses composed primarily of payroll and general and administrative costs. General and administrative expenses are essentially the cost of doing business, and encompass, without limitation, the following: licenses; taxes; general office expenses, such as postage, supplies and printing; utilities; bank charges; website costs; and other miscellaneous expenditures not otherwise classified. For the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the components of our operating expenses were, as follows:


						Change
Expense	2016		2015			$	%
General and administrative	$	166,597	$	181,403	$	(14,806)	(8) %
Executive compensation		92,884		21,465		71,419	333 %
Depreciation		5,686		2,403		3,283	137 %

Total Operating Expenses	$	265,167	$	205,271	$	59,896	29 %

In the three months ended September 30, 2016, operating expenses were $265,167, as compared to $205,271 in the three months ended September 30, 2015. The $59,896, or 29%, increase in operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was primarily attributable to an increase in executive compensation paid to our officers and directors compared to the comparable period ended September 30, 2015.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the components of our operating expenses were, as follows:


						Change
Expense	2016		2015			$	%
General and administrative	$	498,851	$	533,210	$	(34,359)	(6)%
Executive compensation		166,577		80,990		85,587	106%
Depreciation		17,060		3,252		13,808	425%

Total Operating Expenses	$	682,488	$	617,452	$	65,036	11 %

In the nine months ended September 30, 2016, operating expenses were $682,488, as compared to $617,452 in the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The $65,036, or 11%, increase in operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was primarily attributable to an increase in executive compensation paid to our officers and directors.

Our management cautions that the variations in all expense categories are not accurate indications of long-term trends and ongoing expenses will continue to vary drastically from period to period.

Income Taxes and Net Income

During the three months ended September 30, 2016, we realized income before provision for income taxes of $140,119 compared to income of $37,112 in the comparable period ended September 30, 2015. After deducting income tax expense of $58,160, net income in quarter ended September 30, 2016 was $81,959. During the three months ended September 30, 2015, we had net income of $16,463, after accounting for income taxes during the period of $20,649.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2016, our net income totaled $188,418 after deducting provision for income taxes of $140,713. In comparison, we realized net income of $118,627 during the nine month period ended September 30, 2015, after income tax expense of $97,290.

Seasonality of Business and Quarterly Results

Our business varies with general seasonal trends that are characteristic of the retail and apparel industries. As a result, we generate a higher percentage of our annual net sales and profitability in the fourth quarter of our fiscal year, which includes the holiday selling season, compared to other quarters of our fiscal year. If for any reason our sales were below seasonal norms during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year, our annual operating results would be negatively impacted. Because of the seasonality of our business, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of results that may be achieved for a full fiscal year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2016, we had $493,980 of cash on hand compared to cash on hand of $263,283 as of September 30, 2015. This increase in cash was primarily generated organically through operating activities, as well as a proceeds from short term notes payable in the amount of $97,000. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we generated cash from operating activities of $156,414, compared to generating cash from operating activities of $110,425 in the comparable period ended September 30, 2015. The increase in cash generated from operations is primarily attributable to acquisition of inventory offset by an increase of income tax payable.

Cash utilized in investing activities was $0 and $138,448 during the periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Cash used was due primarily to purchase a company vehicle during 2015.

Cash provided by financing activities was $54,392 and $68,470 for the nine months periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Cash provided by financing activities was due primarily to the issuance of notes payable in the amount of $97,000.

Current and Future Sources of Liquidity

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash flows generated from operations, and our existing cash and cash equivalents. We believe that the cash and cash equivalents currently on hand and expected cash flows from future operations will be sufficient to continue operations for at least the next twelve months. We expect that continued focus on acquiring new customers will enable us to increase profitable revenues and continue to generate cash flows from operating activities.

If we do not generate sufficient cash from operations, face unanticipated cash needs or do not otherwise have sufficient cash, we have the ability to reduce certain expenses depending on the level of business operation.

Based on current expectations, we believe that our existing cash and our net cash provided by operating activities and other potential sources of cash will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements. Our ability to meet these requirements will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future, which is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control.

We expect to use our cash to invest in our core business, including new product innovations, advertising and marketing. Other than normal operating expenses, cash requirements for fiscal 2016 are expected to consist primarily of capital expenditures and additional investments in advertising and marketing efforts.

If our own financial resources and current cash-flows from operations are insufficient to satisfy our capital requirements, we anticipate obtaining additional financing to fund operations through common stock offerings, to the extent available, to augment our working capital. In the future we need to generate sufficient revenues in order to eliminate or reduce the need to sell additional stock. Our failure to generate sufficient revenues or profits or to obtain additional financing or raise additional capital could have a material adverse effect on our operations and on our ability to achieve our intended business objectives. Any projections of future cash needs and cash flows are subject to substantial uncertainty.

Our management does not expect to incur research and development costs.

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

We currently do not own any significant plant or equipment that we would seek to sell in the near future.

We have not paid for expenses on behalf of any of our directors. Additionally, we believe that this fact shall not materially change.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("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 Securities and Exchange Commission ("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, estimates and judgments addressed below. We also have other key accounting policies, which involve the use of estimates, judgments, and assumptions that are significant to understanding our results. For additional information, see Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in our Notes to Financial Statements. 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. Our critical accounting policies are as follows:

Revenue Recognition

We derive our revenue from merchandise sales. Revenue is recognized when the following revenue recognition criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price or fee revenue earned is fixed or determinable; and (4) collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. We record revenue from the sale of merchandise upon shipment or delivery of the products to the customer. We also record the shipping income when the products are sent to the customer.

Recent pronouncements

The Company has evaluated recent accounting pronouncements through the filing date and believes that none of them will have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risks

This item is not required for smaller reporting companies.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the Company’s last fiscal quarter, the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s current management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer (Principal Financial and Accounting Officer), who concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Company reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer (Principal Financial and Accounting Officer), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting.

Management reviews the Company’s system of internal control over financial reporting and makes changes to the Company’s processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that the Company maintains an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities and migrating processes.

During the Company’s last fiscal quarter, there was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
