CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION
This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “may,” “should,” “could,” “will,” “plan,” “future,” “continue,” and other expressions that are predictions of or indicate future events and trends and that do not relate to historical matters identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based largely on our expectations or forecasts of future events, can be affected by inaccurate assumptions, and are subject to various business risks and known and unknown uncertainties, a number of which are beyond our control. Therefore, actual results could differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this document, and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. A wide variety of factors could cause or contribute to such differences and could adversely impact revenues, profitability, cash flows and capital needs. There can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements contained in this document will, in fact, transpire or prove to be accurate. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including the risks in the section entitled “Risk Factors” that may cause our or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements.
Important factors that may cause the actual results to differ from the forward-looking statements, projections or other expectations include, but are not limited to, the following:
| ● | risk that we will not be able to remediate identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures; | |
| ● | risk that we fail to meet the requirements of the agreements under which we acquired our business interests, including any cash payments to the business operations, which could result in the loss of our right to continue to operate or develop the specific businesses described in the agreements; | |
| ● | risk that we will be unable to secure additional financing in the near future in order to commence and sustain our planned development and growth plans; | |
| ● | risk that we cannot attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel, particularly employees, consultants and contractors for our operations; | |
| ● | risks and uncertainties relating to the various industries and operations we are currently engaged in; | |
| ● | results of initial feasibility, pre-feasibility and feasibility studies, and the possibility that future growth, development or expansion will not be consistent with our expectations; | |
| ● | risks related to the inherent uncertainty of business operations including profit, cost of goods, production costs and cost estimates and the potential for unexpected costs and expenses; | |
| ● | risks related to commodity price fluctuations; | |
| ● | the uncertainty of profitability based upon our history of losses; | |
| ● | risks related to failure to obtain adequate financing on a timely basis and on acceptable terms for our planned development projects; | |
| ● | risks related to environmental regulation and liability; | |
| ● | risks related to tax assessments; and | |
| ● | other risks and uncertainties related to our prospects, properties and business strategy. |
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. Except as required by law, we do not undertake to update or revise any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

The operations of Slinger Bag Inc., Slinger Bag Americas, Slinger Bag Canada, Slinger Bag UK, SBL and Foundation Sports are collectively referred to as the “Company.”
The Company operates in the sporting and athletic goods business. The Company is the owner of the Slinger Launcher, which is a portable tennis ball launcher, as well as other associated tennis accessories.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). As a result of the transactions described above, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the combined results of Slinger Bag Inc., Slinger Bag Americas, Slinger Bag Canada, Slinger Bag UK, SBL and Foundation Sports for the periods presented. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
NOTE 2: GOING CONCERN
The
financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge
its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $
| F-5 |
The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or being able to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand, loans from related parties, and/or private placement of debt and/or common stock. In respect to additional financing, refer to Notes 5, 6, 7, and 12. In the event that the Company is unable to successfully raise capital and/or generate revenues, the Company will likely reduce general and administrative expenses, and cease or delay its development plan until it is able to obtain sufficient financing. There can be no assurance that additional funds will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all.
NOTE 3: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and based upon Securities and Exchange Commission rules that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. For a more complete discussion of significant accounting policies and certain other information, you should refer to the financial statements included in Slinger Bag Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2021. These financial statements reflect all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of results of operations and financial condition for the interim periods shown, including normal recurring accruals and other items. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Financial Statement Reclassification
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in these consolidated financial statements to conform to current year presentation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The majority of payments due from banks for credit card transactions process within 24 to 48 hours and are accordingly classified as cash and cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable
The
Company’s accounts receivable are non-interest bearing trade receivables resulting from the sale of products and payable over terms
ranging from 15 to 60 days. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts at the point when collection is considered doubtful.
Once all collection efforts have been exhausted, the Company charges-off the receivable with the allowance for doubtful accounts. The

Inventory

is valued at the lower of the cost (determined principally on a first-in, first-out basis) or net realizable value. The Company’s
valuation of inventory includes inventory reserves for inventory that will be sold below cost and the impact of inventory shrink. Inventory
reserves are based on historical information and assumptions about future demand and inventory shrink trends. The Company’s inventory
as of January 31, 2022 consisted of $
| F-6 |
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed insured limits. The Company continually monitors its banking relationships and consequently has not experienced any losses in such accounts. While we may be exposed to credit risk, we consider the risk remote and do not expect that any such risk would result in a significant effect on our results of operations or financial condition.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, the core principle of which is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company recognizes revenue for its performance obligation associated with its contracts with customers at a point in time once products are shipped. Amounts collected from customers in advance of shipping products ordered are reflected as deferred revenue on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s standard terms are non-cancelable and do not provide for the right-of-return, other than for defective merchandise covered under the Company’s standard warranty. The Company has not historically experienced any significant returns or warranty issues.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The three-tier hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value, which prioritizes the inputs used in the methodologies of measuring fair value for assets and liabilities, is as follows:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities
Level 3 — Unobservable pricing inputs in the market
Financial assets and financial liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurements requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities being measured and their categorization within the fair value hierarchy.
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due to their short-term maturity.
The Company’s derivative liabilities were calculated using Level 2 assumptions on the issuance and balance sheet dates via a Black-Scholes option pricing model and consisted of the following ending balances and gain amounts as of and for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2022:
| Note derivative is related to | January 31, 2022 ending balance | Gain (loss) for three months ended January 31, 2022 | Gain (loss) for nine months ended January 31, 2022 | |||||||||

| 8/6/21 convertible notes | ( | ) | ( | ) | ||||||||
| Total | $ | $ | ( | ) | $ | ( | ) | |||||
The Black-Scholes option pricing model assumptions for the derivative liabilities during the nine months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021 consisted of the following:
| 2022 | 2021 | |||||||
| Expected life in years | N/A | |||||||
| Stock price volatility | % | N/A | ||||||
| Risk free interest rate | % | N/A | ||||||
| Expected dividends | % | N/A | ||||||
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts that are more likely than not to be realized.
| F-7 |
Goodwill
The Company accounts for goodwill in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (“ASC 350”). ASC 350 requires that goodwill not be amortized, but reviewed for impairment if impairment indicators arise and, at a minimum, annually.
The goodwill impairment test is a two-step test. In the first step, the Company compares the fair value of each reporting unit with goodwill to its carrying value. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units with goodwill using a combination of a discounted cash flow and a market value approach. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired and the Company is not required to perform further testing. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then the Company must perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test in order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill and compare it to the carrying value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. The activities in the second step include valuing the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference.
There
was
Intangible Assets
Intangible
assets relate to the “Slinger” technology trademark, which the Company purchased on November 10, 2020, as well as the intangible
assets related to the purchase of Foundation Sports on June 21, 2021 (see Note 4). The Slinger trademark is amortized over its expected
life of
Long-Lived Assets
In
accordance with ASC 360-10, the Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that their net book value may not be recoverable. When such factors and circumstances exist, the Company compares the projected undiscounted
future cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated useful lives against their respective carrying
amount. If those net undiscounted cash flows do not exceed the carrying amount, impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying
amount over the fair value based on the market value or discounted expected cash flows of those assets and is recorded in the period
in which the determination is made. There was
The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). Under the fair value recognition provisions of this topic, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period.
Warrants
The Company grants warrants to key employees and executives as compensation on a discretionary basis. The Company also grants warrants in connection with certain note payable agreements and other key arrangements. The Company is required to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the measurement date and recognize as expense that value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest over the requisite service period. Warrants granted in connection with ongoing arrangements are more fully described in Note 6: Convertible Notes Payable, Note 7: Note Payable and Note 10: Shareholders’ Equity.
The warrants granted during the nine months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021 were valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model on the date of grant using the following assumptions:
| 2022 | 2021 | |||||||

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”), 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which amends ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). This update is intended to simplify accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740 and amending existing guidance to improve consistent application of ASC 740. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The guidance in this update has various elements, some of which are applied on a prospective basis and others on a retrospective basis with earlier application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of this ASU on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.
Other recently issued accounting pronouncements did not, or are not believed by management to, have a material effect on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

The Company evaluated the conversion option of the notes payable to shares under the guidance in ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), and determined the conversion option qualified for equity classification. The Company also evaluated the profit guarantee under ASC 815 and determined it to be a make-whole provision, which is an embedded derivative within the host instrument. As the economic characteristics of the make-whole provision are dissimilar to the host instrument, the profit guarantee was bifurcated from the host instrument and stated as a separate derivative liability, which is marked to market at the end of each reporting period with the non-cash gain or loss recorded in the period as a gain or loss on derivative.

Overview and Description of Business
Lazex Inc. (“Lazex”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on July 12, 2015. On August 23, 2019, the majority owner of Lazex entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Slinger Bag Americas Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Slinger Bag Americas”), which was 100% owned by Slinger Bag Ltd. (“SBL”), an Israeli company. In connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement, Slinger Bag Americas acquired 20,000,000 shares of common stock of Lazex for $332,239. On September 16, 2019, SBL transferred its ownership of Slinger Bag Americas to Lazex in exchange for the 20,000,000 shares of Lazex acquired on August 23, 2019. As a result of these transactions, Lazex owned 100% of Slinger Bag Americas and the sole shareholder of SBL owned 20,000,000 shares of common stock (approximately 82%) of Lazex. Effective September 13, 2019, Lazex changed its name to Slinger Bag Inc.
On October 31, 2019, Slinger Bag Americas acquired control of Slinger Bag Canada, Inc., (“Slinger Bag Canada”) a Canadian company incorporated on November 3, 2017. There were no assets, liabilities or historical operational activity of Slinger Bag Canada at that time.
On February 10, 2020, Slinger Bag Americas became the 100% owner of SBL, along with SBL’s wholly owned subsidiary Slinger Bag International (UK) Limited (“Slinger Bag UK”), which was formed on April 3, 2019. The owner of SBL contributed it to Slinger Bag Americas for no consideration.
On June 21, 2021, Slinger Bag Americas entered into a membership interest purchase agreement with Charles Ruddy to acquire a 100% ownership stake in Foundation Sports Systems, LLC (“Foundation Sports”).
The operations of Slinger Bag Inc., Slinger Bag Americas, Slinger Bag Canada, Slinger Bag UK, SBL and Foundation Sports are collectively referred to as the “Company” or “Slinger.”
The Company operates in the sporting and athletic goods business. The Company is the owner of the Slinger Launcher, a highly portable and affordable ball launcher built into an easy to transport wheeled trolley bag. The Slinger Launcher allows anyone to simply and easily control the speed, frequency and elevation of balls that are launched for practice, training or fitness purposes.
The Company has initially focused all its energies on the tennis market worldwide, but is in the early stages of developing ball launchers for other ball sports.
For the regular tennis player, the Slinger Launcher is much more than a tennis ball launcher. It also functions as a complete tennis bag with ample room for racquets, shoes, towels, water bottles and other accessories and can charge mobile phones and other devices.
Tennis ball machines have been around since the 1950’s when they were introduced by Renne Lacoste. Improvements to performance were made in the 1970’s when Prince started its tennis business on the back of its first product – Little Prince – which was a vacuum operated ball machine. In the 1990’s the first battery operated machines came to the market and since that time very little, if anything, has changed in the structure of ball machine products outside of added computerization. Typically, the machines being marketed by traditional ball machine brands are large, cumbersome and awkward to operate. They are also very expensive – often well above U.S. $1,000. Up until today the vast majority of all tennis ball machines have sold to tennis facilities, with only a few being sold directly to tennis playing consumers.
According to the Tennis Industry Association (www.tia.org) the single largest challenge facing tennis participation is the fact that 34% of lapsed players cited a “lack of playing partner” as the reason for them stopping to play tennis. The Slinger Launcher goes a long way to solving this issue.
The global tennis market is regarded by industry experts, governing organizations, tennis brands and tennis-specific market research companies as having 100 million active players globally, with as many consumers again being avid fans of the sport. Of this 100 million tennis player market, 20 million players are regarded as frequent or avid players – players who play regularly - at least 1 time per month. These avid players drive the total tennis industry and account for 80% of all tennis revenues worldwide.
| 1 |
It is this avid player market that the Company is focused on penetrating with its Slinger Launcher and associated tennis accessories.
The Company intends to disrupt this traditional tennis market by creating a new ball machine category – called Slinger Launcher – and marketing portable and affordable Slinger Launchers directly to avid, regular tennis players. Constructed within a wheeled trolley tennis bag, a Slinger Launcher weighs around 15kgs / 34lbs when empty. If stored with 72 balls inside the weight increases to 19kgs / 42lbs. It can easily be stored in a car trunk, wheeled to the court and set up within minutes to use. The Slinger Launcher is powered by a 6.6Ah Lithium battery that can last up to 3.5 hours of play depending on the settings being used and frequency of use. The Slinger Launcher’s convenience as a tennis bag combined with its ease of operation and overall performance as a tennis ball launcher is the basis that the Company will target direct sales to these avid players.
While the initial brand focus is clearly on tennis, the Company is developing similar launchers to address other forms of tennis around the globe that are either rapidly gaining new participants or are already well-established sports in their own right. These include, but are not limited to, Pickleball (U.S.), Soft Tennis (Japan), and Paddle Tennis (International markets), all of which are currently in either development or testing and are planned for introduction in calendar 2022.
On December 3, 2020, Slinger signed an exclusive agreement with Flixsense Pty Limited d/b/a Gameface for the development of a tennis specific artificial intelligence (AI) application. The Company intends to introduce a market disrupting tennis app for players of all ages and abilities. This app will provide a wide range of analytics and other services and include practice and tennis fitness drills and activities, coaching tips and advice and a full suite of AI analytics. The Company will offer some services free of charge and will build a tiered subscription model for others. The app is expected to be ready to launch to the market in calendar 2022.
In future years, the Company plans to enter new ball sport markets such as baseball, softball, and cricket, which are currently planned for introduction in calendar 2023.
The Company delivers Slinger Launchers directly from the final assembly facility in Xiamen, China to customers either by direct shipment from the port in China, or to third party logistics facilities in Columbia, SC (U.S.) to support our U.S. business, Belleville, Ontario, Canada, Rotterdam, The Netherlands to support smaller distributors in Canada, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Israel.
Additionally, we ship full containers of our Slinger Triniti tennis balls from Wilson (our supplier) in Thailand to the United States and Belgium for onward distribution.
The Company has contracted with exclusive distributors globally. These include Japan, UK, Ireland, Switzerland, Scandinavian markets (covering Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland), Australia, New Zealand, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Singapore, Morocco, Slovenia, Slovkian Republic, Hungary, Croatia, Germany, Austria, France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg, Russia, Middle East GCC markets, Egypt, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Malaysia, Greece, Panama, South Africa, Hong Kong, Macau, China, Indonesia, Philippines, Ecuador and Poland and we are in various stages of negotiation with other potential market distribution companies across the globe.
Strategic Brand Partnerships
The Company is actively working on securing a number of highly visible ground-breaking strategic partnerships across tennis. These partnerships will both provide the Company with co-branded products to supplement the core product offering and, at the same time, are expected to drive mutually beneficial marketing campaigns aimed at reaching avid tennis players globally. Details of such partners announced and active today include:
● Wilson Sporting Goods: North America: The Company has entered a strategic partnership with the global leader in tennis, Wilson, for the supply of co-branded Triniti tennis balls in the U.S. and Canada markets.
● Professional Tennis Registry (PTR): PTR is the world’s most prestigious teaching pro organization with more than 40,000 members. The Company has partnered with PTR for the supply of Slinger Launchers to their membership.
● Peter Burwash International (PBI): A high profile organization providing coaching and tennis services to high level, high quality hotels, resorts and tennis facilities across the globe. The Company is the official supplier of Slinger Launchers to PBI, which will be used at each location and PBI will offer an affiliate marketing program promoting sales to its list of global clients.
● DSV Logistics USA and OSL Logistics: DSV is one of the world’s leading suppliers of warehousing, freight forwarding and logistics. The Company will use DSV warehousing services in the U.S. to optimize logistical activities. OSL are currently providing all freight forwarding for the U.S. markets and Europe as well as 3rd party warehousing logistics in Rotterdam for Europe.

Strategy
The Company has an opportunity to disrupt the traditional tennis market globally. The Company expects to drive 80% of its global revenues through its direct-to-consumer go-to-market strategy, whether that be through its on-line e-commerce platform at www.slingerbag.com or through associated e-commerce platforms established and managed by its distribution network. The balance of revenues will be driven through partnerships with leading wholesalers, federations and teaching pro organizations and other transactions across various markets. The Company will operate a third-party distributor structure in all markets with the exception of the United States, the largest tennis market globally, Canada and its founder’s home market of Israel. Distributor partners will have exclusive territories and will have a recognized background within the tennis industry for their market as well as having the financial capacity and service infrastructure to aggressively grow the Slinger brand. Uniquely in the sports industry, all consumer orders received into Slingerbag.com from markets outside the United States will be routed back to our local distribution partners to fulfill and to service their local customers. All distributor partners will purchase with advanced orders, either based on a vendor-direct FOB Asia direct ship or through 1 of our 3 global 3rd party distribution facilities on a duty paid basis and at premium cost price. Currently, the Company has signed a number of exclusive distribution agreements in key markets and has on-going discussions with other key potential distributor partners in other markets around the globe.
The United States market will remain a direct to consumer market for Slinger. As the largest tennis market in the world with 17.4 million players of which 10.5 million are regular / avid players, the United States is a key market both to establish the Slinger brand and to drive demonstrable growth. Recently the industry reported a significant increase in U.S. tennis participation and overall number of tennis play occasions, something that has been replicated in other key tennis markets around the globe. Direct to consumer sales will be supplemented by one or more leading tennis wholesalers who manage large databases of coach, player, college, high school and club clients. This market will be serviced out of a third-party logistics facility in West Columbia, SC and operated by one of Slinger’s preferred global logistics partners, DSV, one of the world’s leading suppliers of freight-forwarding, logistics and warehousing.
Brand Marketing
As a direct-to-consumer e-commerce brand, all marketing activity and advertising media will be centered around pushing consumers to www.slingerbag.com and converting them to purchases. Slinger has engaged a number of leading agencies to support its global marketing efforts:
Brand Nation is a world class influencer marketing agency based in London. Brand Nation will lead all influencer programming globally. Slinger has seeded about 50% of its planned 1,000 global influencers to date.

All influencer activity is rolled back up to the Slinger social media platforms as a means of generating significant brand awareness and product interest.

Ad Venture Media will lead all Slinger PPC activity on a performance-based fee structure and is briefed to drive consumer engagement, through bespoke advertising campaigns that are aligned to our product profitability objectives.
In the United States market, we have partnered with an organization called Team HQS who will manage an affiliate marketing program across U.S. based teaching professionals, players, juniors and events. These affiliates will be provided with unique affiliate marketing codes to share with their social media followers and other such communities that they are connected to and each will receive an affiliate marketing fee based on revenues generated by consumers purchasing Slinger products attributable to their unique code.
We continue to evaluate each support agency on a monthly basis and at the same time are continually exploring new avenues to expand our reach to our core customers.
Each of our distributor partners around the world are establishing their Slinger distribution business as Slinger itself would do if it was establishing a Slinger subsidiary in each market. As such, each distributor will also adopt all forms of Slinger brand marketing programs as well as initiating new local concepts of their own – all aimed at reaching the avid/regular tennis player directly and ensuring that the Slinger brand message is consistent around the globe. Slinger has agreed a local marketing budget structure with each distributor as part of its distribution agreement. This marketing budget will be primarily funded by the distributor partner with an additional contribution coming from Slinger with the contribution being linked to the distributor’s purchase objectives. Each distributor will execute local grassroots programs including demonstration days, local teaching pro partnerships, specialist tennis network communications, seeding of Slinger product locally as necessary to local key market tennis influencers to further increase the intensity of the influencer effort. Marketing dollars will also be allocated to Google, Facebook, YouTube and other social media advertising spend and, where appropriate, approved and overseen by Ad Venture Media Group.

Research and Development
The Company is involved in additional research and development of transportable, affordable and player-enhancing ball launching machines and associated game improvement products for all ball sports. Following a successful launch of its tennis ball launcher, Slinger is currently field testing its new pickleball, paddle and soft tennis launchers, which are expected to be introduced to the market in calendar 2022. Slinger plans to introduce similar transportable, versatile and affordable ball launchers for baseball, softball, cricket, badminton and other high participation ball sports over the course of the next 3 years. In this connection, on September 10, 2020, Slinger entered into an agreement with Igloo Design, which is the same company that designed the Slinger Launcher for tennis, for a Slinger ball launcher for baseball and softball. This development commenced in the second half of 2020 and initial design ideas and further direction have been provided.
We retain outside consultants to provide research and product design services and each consultant has a specific expertise (e.g., molding technology, electronics, product design, bag design, as examples). We also are working with a select group of highly qualified and resourceful third-party suppliers in Asia. We are continually striving to identify product enhancements, new concepts and improvement to the production process on an on-going daily basis. In respect of any new project, management provides detailed briefs, market data, product cost targets, competitive analysis, timelines and project cost goals to either the product consultants or vendors and manages them to agreed upon key performance indicators (“KPIs”). These KPI’s include, but are not limited to: (i) manufacturing to target costs; (ii) agreed development timelines; (iii) established quality criteria; and (iv) defined performance criteria.
We also retain specialist trademark and patent attorneys and work with these attorneys on the projects, as needed.

Net sales
Net sales increased $78,097, or 2%, during the three months ended January 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended January 31, 2021. The increase is due to an increase in the number of new orders placed on the Company’s website and from its international distributors and fulfilled during the three months ended January 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended January 31, 2021 when the product was still relatively new to the market. As of January 31, 2022, we had deferred revenue of $18,508 representing amounts received for units that have not been shipped to customers. We expect these orders to be fulfilled and the sales to be recognized in the Company’s next fiscal quarter.
Cost of sales and Gross income
Cost of sales decreased $11,063 during the three months ended January 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended January 31, 2021, which is primarily due to increased shipping costs in the prior year. Gross income increased $89,160, or 10%, during the three months ended January 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended January 31, 2021 due to the increased sales and lower cost of sales.
| 7 |
Selling and marketing expenses
Selling and marketing expenses increased $568,316, or 162%, during the three months ended January 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended January 31, 2021. This increase is largely driven by an increase in social media advertising, sponsorships, and other investments in our public relations presence in the current year in order to drive sales and build brand awareness.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses, which primarily consist of compensation (including share-based compensation) and other employee-related costs, as well as legal fees and fees for professional services, increased $1,556,875 during the three months ended January 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended January 31, 2021. This increase is primarily driven by a $504,093 increase in legal fees related to closing costs incurred as part of the acquisitions of PlaySight Interactive Ltd. and Flixsense Pty Ltd. d/b/a Gameface during the three months ended January 31, 2022 and filing fees related to our S-1 that was filed in January 2022 and other SEC filings. The remainder of the increase is largely due to an increase in compensation expense due to increased headcount to support the continued growth of the business as well as the acquisition of Foundation Sports in 2021.
Research and development costs
Research and development costs increased $138,752 during the three months ended January 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended January 31, 2021. This increase is primarily driven by our investment in a new platform and app that will integrate artificial intelligence (AI) technology to offer more value to our customers, as well as the continued development and testing of launchers for new ball sports that are expected to be brought to market in the future.
| 8 |
Other expense
Total other expense decreased $1,095,745 during the three months ended January 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended January 31, 2021. The decrease in expense was primarily due to the increased gain on the change in fair value of derivatives as well as a decrease in the loss on extinguishment of debt and related party interest expense as a result of lower related party debt balances year over year. These decreases were partially offset by the loss on the issuance of the Convertible Notes as well as an increase in amortization of debt discounts and interest expense, net due to the issuance of the Convertible Notes during the current year.

Net sales
Net sales increased $4,831,159, or 66%, during the nine months ended January 31, 2022 as compared to the nine months ended January 31, 2021. The increase is due to an increase in the number of new orders placed on the Company’s website and from its international distributors and fulfilled during the nine months ended January 31, 2022 as compared to the nine months ended January 31, 2021 when a large portion of the orders during the first three months of the year were related to the Kickstarter and Indiegogo crowdfunding campaigns initiated in fiscal year 2019.
Cost of sales and Gross income
Cost of sales increased $2,540,243, or 44%, during the nine months ended January 31, 2022 as compared to the nine months ended January 31, 2021, which was primarily due to the increase in net sales. Gross income increased $2,290,916, or 148%, during the nine months ended January 31, 2022 as compared to the nine months ended January 31, 2021.
| 9 |
The increase in gross margin is largely due to the first quarter of the prior year resulting in a gross loss on net sales due to (1) discounted pricing on the initial crowdfunding orders, (2) as fulfillment was later than initially scheduled we fulfilled orders with the “deluxe” version of launcher (including all features), as well as tennis balls, both of which increased cost of sales, and (3) due to sanctions by the U.S. against Chinese sourced products, the import duty was raised on all launchers brought into the U.S. increasing our cost of sales. As a result, our cost of sales exceeded initial sales values raised in our crowdfunding campaigns. As of the beginning of the third quarter in the prior year, substantially all of the initial crowdfunding orders had been fulfilled.
Selling and marketing expenses
Selling and marketing expenses increased $1,463,282, or 139%, during the nine months ended January 31, 2022 as compared to the nine months ended January 31, 2021. This increase is largely driven by an increase in social media advertising, sponsorships, and other investments in our public relations presence in the current year in order to drive sales and build brand awareness.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses, which primarily consist of compensation (including share-based compensation) and other employee-related costs, as well as legal fees and fees for professional services, increased $38,560,784 during the nine months ended January 31, 2022 as compared to the nine months ended January 31, 2021. This increase is primarily driven by an increase of $32,569,112 of share-based compensation related to warrants granted to employees, a $1,264,590 increase in expense related to shares and warrants issued in connection with services the majority of which relate to the warrants issued to the lead placement agent as part of the issuance of the Convertible Notes and shares and warrants issued to brand ambassadors, and a $1,000,000 increase in legal fees related to closing costs incurred as part of the acquisitions of PlaySight Interactive Ltd. and Flixsense Pty Ltd. d/b/a Gameface during the nine months ended January 31, 2022. The remainder of the increase is largely due to an increase in compensation expense due to increased headcount to support the continued growth of the business as well as the acquisition of Foundation Sports in 2021.
Research and development costs
Research and development costs increased $372,569 during the nine months ended January 31, 2022 as compared to the nine months ended January 31, 2021. This increase is primarily driven by our investment in a new platform and app that will integrate artificial intelligence (AI) technology to offer more value to our customers, which we began developing in December 2020, as well as the continued development and testing of launchers for new ball sports that are expected to be brought to market in the future.
Other expense
Total other expense increased $1,335,836 during the nine months ended January 31, 2022 as compared to the nine months ended January 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to the loss on the issuance of the Convertible Notes, an increase in loss on extinguishment of debt as a result of the conversion of the notes payable – related party, and increases in amortization of debt discounts and interest expense, net due to the issuance of the Convertible Notes during the nine months ended January 31, 2022. These increases were partially offset by an increased gain on the change in fair value of derivatives as well as a decrease in induced conversion loss and related party interest expense as a result of lower related party debt balances year over year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes we will be able to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. We had an accumulated deficit of $73,454,066 as of January 31, 2022, and more losses are anticipated in the development of the business. Accordingly, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
| 10 |
The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our generating profitable operations in the future and/or being able to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand, loans from related parties, and/or private placement of debt and/or common stock. In respect to additional financing, refer to Notes 5, 6, 7, and 12. In the event that the Company is unable to successfully raise capital and/or generate revenues, the Company will likely reduce general and administrative expenses, and cease or delay its development plan until it is able to obtain sufficient financing. There can be no assurance that additional funds will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all.
The following is a summary of our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the nine months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021:

On January 14, 2022, the Company entered into two loan agreements with Yonah Kalfa and Naftali Kalfa, each for $1,000,000, pursuant to which the Company received a total amount of $2,000,000. The loans bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum and are required to be repaid in full by April 30, 2022 or such other date as may be accepted by the lenders. The Company is not permitted to make any distribution or pay any dividends unless or until the loans are repaid in full.
There was $2,000,000 in outstanding borrowings from the Company’s related parties as of January 31, 2022. Accrued interest due to these related parties as of January 31, 2022 amounted to $850,092.
See Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Convertible Notes Payable
On August 6, 2021, the Company consummated the closing (the “Closing”) of a private placement offering (the “Offering”) pursuant to the terms and conditions of that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 6, 2021 (the “Purchase Agreement”), between the Company and certain accredited investors (the “Purchasers”). At the Closing, the Company sold to the Purchasers (i) 8% Senior Convertible Notes (the “Convertible Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $11,000,000 and (ii) warrants to purchase up to 7,333,334 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Warrants” and together with the Convertible Notes, the “Securities”). The Company received an aggregate of $11,000,000 in gross proceeds from the Offering, before deducting offering expenses and commissions.
On December 31, 2021, the Purchase Agreement and Convertible Notes were amended in an Omnibus Amendment Agreement pursuant to which the holders of the Convertible Notes agreed to make certain changes to the terms of the Purchase Agreement and Convertible Notes in exchange for an increase in the principal amount of the Convertible Notes from $11,000,000 to $13,200,000 and such increased principal balance is reflected on the replacement note issued to each note holder. The full terms of the Omnibus Amendment Agreement were disclosed in our current report on Form 8-K dated January 5, 2022.
Total outstanding borrowings related to the Convertible Notes as of January 31, 2022 were $13,200,000. The outstanding amount is net of total discounts of $5,622,222 for a net book value of $7,577,778 as of January 31, 2022.
See Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Note Payable
On April 15, 2021, the Company entered into a $2,000,000 note payable (the “Note”). The Note matures April 14, 2023 and bears interest at fifteen percent (15%) per year. The Company pays interest at maturity, at which time all principal and unpaid interest is due.
On August 6, 2021, the Company used the net proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Notes to pay 100% of the outstanding principal and accrued interest of the Note.
See Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Future amounts due as of January 31, 2022 are summarized as follows:

We expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through a combination of our existing funds, cash flows from operations and further issuances of debt and/or securities. Our working capital requirements are expected to increase in line with the growth of our business.
Existing working capital, further advances and debt instruments, and anticipated cash flow are expected to be adequate to fund our operations over the next twelve months. We have no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements. Generally, we have financed operations to date through the proceeds of private placement of equity and debt instruments. In connection with our business plan, management anticipates additional increases in operating expenses and capital expenditures relating to the (i) acquisition of inventory; (ii) developmental expenses associated with a start-up business; and (iii) marketing expenses. We intend to finance these expenses with further issuances of securities and debt issuances. Thereafter, we expect we will need to raise additional capital and generate revenues to meet long-term operating requirements. Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current shareholders. Further, such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Effect of Inflation and Changes in Prices
We do not believe that inflation and changes in prices will have a material effect on our operations.
Going Concern
Our independent registered public accounting firm auditors’ report accompanying our April 30, 2021 financial statements contained an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates that we will realize our assets and satisfy our liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide this information.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company has adopted and maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as the Form 10-Q, is collected, recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As required under Exchange Act 13a-15, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of January 31, 2022 due to the material weaknesses that were identified and listed below.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In connection with our management’s assessment of controls over financial reporting during the year ended April 30, 2021, we identified the following material weaknesses:
| ● | The Company lacks adequate segregation of duties due to the small size of the organization. Further, the Company lacks an independent Board of Directors or Audit Committee to ensure adequate monitoring or oversight. | |
| ● | The Company lacks accounting resources and controls to prevent or detect material misstatements. Specifically, the Company continues to have a material weakness in our controls over accounting for inventory due to a lack of controls over ensuring inventory movement was being processed accurately and in a timely manner, which resulted in significant audit adjustments relating to the value of our inventory and cost of sales. Further, while the Company engages service providers to assist with U.S. GAAP compliance the Company lacks resources with adequate knowledge to oversee those services. Lastly, the Company does not have sufficient resources to complete timely reconciliations and transactional reviews, which resulted in delays in the financial reporting process in the prior year. |
To remediate the material weaknesses, we have initiated compensating controls in the near term and are enhancing and revising our existing controls, including ensuring we have sufficient management review procedures and adequate segregation of duties. These controls are still in the process of being implemented. The material weakness will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded they are operating effectively. As a result, the material weaknesses continue to be listed as of January 31, 2022.

Organization
Lazex Inc. (“Lazex”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on July 12, 2015. On August 23, 2019, the majority owner of Lazex entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Slinger Bag Americas Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Slinger Bag Americas”), which was 100% owned by Slinger Bag Ltd. (“SBL”), an Israeli company. In connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement, Slinger Bag Americas acquired shares of common stock of Lazex for $332,239. On September 16, 2019, SBL transferred its ownership of Slinger Bag Americas to Lazex in exchange for the shares of Lazex acquired on August 23, 2019. As a result of these transactions, Lazex owned 100% of Slinger Bag Americas and the sole shareholder of SBL owned shares of common stock (approximately %) of Lazex. Effective September 13, 2019, Lazex changed its name to Slinger Bag Inc.
On October 31, 2019, Slinger Bag Americas acquired control of Slinger Bag Canada, Inc., (“Slinger Bag Canada”) a Canadian company incorporated on November 3, 2017. There were no assets, liabilities or historical operational activity of Slinger Bag Canada at that time.
On February 10, 2020, Slinger Bag Americas became the 100% owner of SBL, along with SBL’s wholly owned subsidiary Slinger Bag International (UK) Limited (“Slinger Bag UK”), which was formed on April 3, 2019. The owner of SBL contributed it to Slinger Bag Americas for no consideration.
On June 21, 2021, Slinger Bag Americas entered into a membership interest purchase agreement with Charles Ruddy to acquire a 100% ownership stake in Foundation Sports Systems, LLC (“Foundation Sports”) (see Note 4).
The operations of Slinger Bag Inc., Slinger Bag Americas, Slinger Bag Canada, Slinger Bag UK, SBL and Foundation Sports are collectively referred to as the “Company.”
The Company operates in the sporting and athletic goods business. The Company is the owner of the Slinger Launcher, which is a portable tennis ball launcher, as well as other associated tennis accessories.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). As a result of the transactions described above, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the combined results of Slinger Bag Inc., Slinger Bag Americas, Slinger Bag Canada, Slinger Bag UK, SBL and Foundation Sports for the periods presented. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

| GOING CONCERN | NOTE 2: GOING CONCERN
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $73,454,066 as of January 31, 2022, and more losses are anticipated in the development of the business. Accordingly, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or being able to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand, loans from related parties, and/or private placement of debt and/or common stock. In respect to additional financing, refer to Notes 5, 6, 7, and 12. In the event that the Company is unable to successfully raise capital and/or generate revenues, the Company will likely reduce general and administrative expenses, and cease or delay its development plan until it is able to obtain sufficient financing. There can be no assurance that additional funds will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all.

| SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 3: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and based upon Securities and Exchange Commission rules that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. For a more complete discussion of significant accounting policies and certain other information, you should refer to the financial statements included in Slinger Bag Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2021. These financial statements reflect all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of results of operations and financial condition for the interim periods shown, including normal recurring accruals and other items. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Financial Statement Reclassification
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in these consolidated financial statements to conform to current year presentation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The majority of payments due from banks for credit card transactions process within 24 to 48 hours and are accordingly classified as cash and cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable
The Company’s accounts receivable are non-interest bearing trade receivables resulting from the sale of products and payable over terms ranging from 15 to 60 days. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts at the point when collection is considered doubtful. Once all collection efforts have been exhausted, the Company charges-off the receivable with the allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company had a $10,000 and $0 allowance for doubtful accounts as of January 31, 2022 and April 30, 2021, respectively.
Inventory
Inventory is valued at the lower of the cost (determined principally on a first-in, first-out basis) or net realizable value. The Company’s valuation of inventory includes inventory reserves for inventory that will be sold below cost and the impact of inventory shrink. Inventory reserves are based on historical information and assumptions about future demand and inventory shrink trends. The Company’s inventory as of January 31, 2022 consisted of $4,532,972 of finished goods, $2,441,085 of component and replacement parts, $1,945,664 of capitalized duty and freight, and a $250,000 inventory reserve. The Company’s inventory as of April 30, 2021 consisted of $1,591,826 of finished goods, $1,777,028 of component and replacement parts, $347,362 of capitalized duty and freight, and a $23,000 inventory reserve.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed insured limits. The Company continually monitors its banking relationships and consequently has not experienced any losses in such accounts. While we may be exposed to credit risk, we consider the risk remote and do not expect that any such risk would result in a significant effect on our results of operations or financial condition.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, the core principle of which is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company recognizes revenue for its performance obligation associated with its contracts with customers at a point in time once products are shipped. Amounts collected from customers in advance of shipping products ordered are reflected as deferred revenue on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s standard terms are non-cancelable and do not provide for the right-of-return, other than for defective merchandise covered under the Company’s standard warranty. The Company has not historically experienced any significant returns or warranty issues.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The three-tier hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value, which prioritizes the inputs used in the methodologies of measuring fair value for assets and liabilities, is as follows:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities Level 3 — Unobservable pricing inputs in the market
Financial assets and financial liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurements requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities being measured and their categorization within the fair value hierarchy.
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due to their short-term maturity.
The Company’s derivative liabilities were calculated using Level 2 assumptions on the issuance and balance sheet dates via a Black-Scholes option pricing model and consisted of the following ending balances and gain amounts as of and for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2022:
The Black-Scholes option pricing model assumptions for the derivative liabilities during the nine months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021 consisted of the following:
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts that are more likely than not to be realized.
Goodwill
The Company accounts for goodwill in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (“ASC 350”). ASC 350 requires that goodwill not be amortized, but reviewed for impairment if impairment indicators arise and, at a minimum, annually.
The goodwill impairment test is a two-step test. In the first step, the Company compares the fair value of each reporting unit with goodwill to its carrying value. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units with goodwill using a combination of a discounted cash flow and a market value approach. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired and the Company is not required to perform further testing. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then the Company must perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test in order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill and compare it to the carrying value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. The activities in the second step include valuing the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference.
There was no impairment of goodwill during the nine months ended January 31, 2022 or 2021.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets relate to the “Slinger” technology trademark, which the Company purchased on November 10, 2020, as well as the intangible assets related to the purchase of Foundation Sports on June 21, 2021 (see Note 4). The Slinger trademark is amortized over its expected life of 20 years. Amortization expense for the nine months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021 related to the Slinger trademark was $4,348 and $1,299, respectively.
Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with ASC 360-10, the Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable. When such factors and circumstances exist, the Company compares the projected undiscounted future cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amount. If those net undiscounted cash flows do not exceed the carrying amount, impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value based on the market value or discounted expected cash flows of those assets and is recorded in the period in which the determination is made. There was no impairment of long-lived assets identified during the nine months ended January 31, 2022 or 2021.
The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). Under the fair value recognition provisions of this topic, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period.
Warrants
The Company grants warrants to key employees and executives as compensation on a discretionary basis. The Company also grants warrants in connection with certain note payable agreements and other key arrangements. The Company is required to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the measurement date and recognize as expense that value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest over the requisite service period. Warrants granted in connection with ongoing arrangements are more fully described in Note 6: Convertible Notes Payable, Note 7: Note Payable and Note 10: Shareholders’ Equity.
The warrants granted during the nine months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021 were valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model on the date of grant using the following assumptions:
Foreign Currency Translation
A portion of SBL’s operations are conducted in Israel and its functional currency is the Israeli Shekel, the Company’s operations of Slinger Bag Canada are conducted in its functional currency of Canadian Dollars, and the Company’s Slinger Bag UK operations are conducted in its functional currency of the British pound (“GBP”). The accounts of SBL, Slinger Bag Canada, and Slinger Bag UK have been translated into U.S. dollars (“USD”). Assets and liabilities are translated into USD at the applicable exchange rates at period-end. Shareholders’ equity is translated using historical exchange rates. Revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. Any translation adjustments are included as foreign currency translation adjustments on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing income available to shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period.
The Company had and common shares issuable as of January 31, 2022 and 2021, which were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share as the effect is antidilutive. The Company also had outstanding convertible notes payable that were convertible into and shares of common stock as of January 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, outstanding warrants exercisable into and shares of common stock as of January 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and and shares related to make-whole provisions as of January 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as the effect is antidilutive. As a result, the basic and diluted earnings per share are the same for each of the periods presented.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”), 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which amends ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). This update is intended to simplify accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740 and amending existing guidance to improve consistent application of ASC 740. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The guidance in this update has various elements, some of which are applied on a prospective basis and others on a retrospective basis with earlier application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of this ASU on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.
Other recently issued accounting pronouncements did not, or are not believed by management to, have a material effect on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

| NOTES PAYABLE – RELATED PARTY | NOTE 5: NOTES PAYABLE – RELATED PARTY
Beginning in October 2019, the Company entered into several loan agreements with a related party entity controlled by the former shareholder of Slinger Bag Canada. Total outstanding borrowings from this related party as of April 30, 2021 amounted to $, which was gross of total discounts of $76,777 and consisted of the following:
On May 26, 2021, the Company and the related party lender entered into a note conversion agreement (the “Note Conversion Agreement”) whereby the related party lender agreed to convert its total outstanding borrowings as of that date of $6,220,000 into shares of the Company’s common stock. The Note Conversion Agreement contains a guarantee that the aggregate gross sales of the shares by the related party will be no less than $6,220,000 over the next three years and if the aggregate gross sales are less than $6,220,000 the Company will issue additional shares of common stock to the related party for the difference between the total gross proceeds and $6,220,000, which could result in an infinite number of shares being required to be issued.
The Company evaluated the conversion option of the notes payable to shares under the guidance in ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), and determined the conversion option qualified for equity classification. The Company also evaluated the profit guarantee under ASC 815 and determined it to be a make-whole provision, which is an embedded derivative within the host instrument. As the economic characteristics of the make-whole provision are dissimilar to the host instrument, the profit guarantee was bifurcated from the host instrument and stated as a separate derivative liability, which is marked to market at the end of each reporting period with the non-cash gain or loss recorded in the period as a gain or loss on derivative.
On the date of conversion the Company recognized a $5,118,435 loss on extinguishment of debt, which represented the difference between the $6,220,000 in notes payable that were converted and the fair value of the shares issued of $6,220,003, which were recorded in shares issued for conversion of notes payable – related party within shareholders’ equity, the derivative liability of $5,052,934, which was valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model, and the write-off of the unamortized debt discount of $65,498. Amortization of the debt discounts during the three months ended July 31, 2021, prior to the notes’ conversion, was $11,279, which was recorded in amortization of debt discounts in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Per the terms of the Note Conversion Agreement the accrued interest related to the notes payable was not converted into shares and is still due to the related party. The Company and the related party agreed that interest will continue to accrue on the outstanding accrued interest at a rate of 9.5% per annum and will be paid in full by May 25, 2022.
On July 23, 2021, the Company entered into a loan agreement with its related party lender for borrowings of $500,000. The loan is to be repaid within 30 days of receipt and shall bear interest at a rate of 12% per annum.
On August 4, 2021, the Company entered into a loan agreement with its related party lender for borrowings of $500,000. The loan is to be repaid within 30 days of receipt and shall bear interest at a rate of 12% per annum.
On August 11, 2021, the Company repaid the outstanding principal and interest to its related party lender for the July 23, 2021 loan of $500,000 and the August 4, 2021 loan of $500,000.
On August 31, 2021, the Company’s related party lender cancelled the guarantee in the Note Conversion Agreement that the aggregate gross sales of its converted shares will be no less than $6,220,000. In connection with the elimination of the profit guarantee the derivative liability ceased to exist at that time. On August 31, 2021, the fair value of the derivative liability was remeasured using a Black-Scholes option pricing model and determined to be $2,185,185. The change in fair value of the derivative through August 31, 2021, was recognized as a gain on change in fair value of derivatives of $2,867,749 for the nine months ended January 31, 2022, and the remaining value of the derivative of $2,185,185 was reclassified to additional paid-in capital as part of shareholders’ equity during the three months ended October 31, 2021 due to the related party nature of the transaction.
On January 14, 2022, the Company entered into two loan agreements with Yonah Kalfa and Naftali Kalfa, each for $1,000,000, pursuant to which the Company received a total amount of $2,000,000. The loans bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum and are required to be repaid in full by April 30, 2022 or such other date as may be accepted by the lenders. The Company is not permitted to make any distribution or pay any dividends unless or until the loans are repaid in full.
There was $2,000,000 in outstanding borrowings from related parties as of January 31, 2022. Interest expense related to the related parties for the three months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021 amounted to $28,167 and $137,480, respectively. Interest expense related to related parties for the nine months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021 amounted to $106,895 and $454,029, respectively. Accrued interest due to related parties as of January 31, 2022 and April 30, 2021 amounted to $850,092 and $747,636, respectively.

| CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE | NOTE 6: CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE
On August 6, 2021, the Company consummated the closing (the “Closing”) of a private placement offering (the “Offering”) pursuant to the terms and conditions of that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 6, 2021 (the “Purchase Agreement”), between the Company and certain accredited investors (the “Purchasers”). At the Closing, the Company sold to the Purchasers (i) 8% Senior Convertible Notes (the “Convertible Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $11,000,000 and (ii) warrants to purchase up to shares of common stock of the Company (the “Warrants” and together with the Convertible Notes, the “Securities”). The Company received an aggregate of $11,000,000 in gross proceeds from the Offering, before deducting offering expenses and commissions.
The Convertible Notes mature on August 6, 2022 (the “Maturity Date”) and bear interest at 8% per annum payable on each conversion date (as to that principal amount then being converted), on each redemption date as well as mandatory redemption date (as to that principal amount then being redeemed) and on the Maturity Date, in cash. The Convertible Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time following the date of issuance and prior to Mandatory Conversion (as defined in the Convertible Notes) at the conversion price equal to the lesser of: (i) $3.00, subject to adjustment set forth in the Convertible Notes and (ii) in the case of an uplist to the NASDAQ, the Uplist Conversion Price (as defined in the Convertible Notes) of the Company’s common stock during the two Trading Day (as defined in the Convertible Notes) period after each conversion date; provided, however, that at any time from and after December 31, 2021 or an Event of Default (as defined in the Convertible Notes), the holder of the Convertible Notes may, by delivery of written notice to the Company, elect to cause all, or any part, of the Convertible Notes to be converted, at any time thereafter, each an “Alternate Conversion”, pursuant to the Section 4(f) of the Convertible Notes, all, or any part of, the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes into shares of Common Stock at the Alternate Conversion price. The Convertible Notes rank pari passu with all other notes now or thereafter issued under the terms set forth in the Convertible Notes. The Convertible Notes contain certain price protection provisions providing for adjustment of the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes in case of certain future dilutive events or stock-splits and dividends.
The Warrants are exercisable for five years from August 6, 2021, at an exercise price equal to the lesser of $3.00 or a 20% discount to the public offering price that a share of the Company’s common stock or unit (if units are offered) is offered to the public resulting in the commencement of trading of the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ, New York Stock Exchange or NYSE American. The Warrants contain certain price protection provisions providing for adjustment of the amount of securities issuable upon exercise of the Warrants in case of certain future dilutive events or stock-splits and dividends.
The Company evaluated the Warrants and the conversion options under the guidance in ASC 815 and determined they represent derivative liabilities given the variability in the exercise and conversion prices upon the event of an up list to the NASDAQ. The Company also evaluated the other embedded features in the agreement and determined the interest make-whole provision and the subsequent financing redemption represent put features that are also accounted for as derivative liabilities. The derivative liabilities are marked to market at the end of each reporting period with the non-cash gain or loss recorded in the period as a gain or loss on derivative (see Note 3).
The Warrants were valued at $12,026,668 on the date of issuance using a Monte Carlo simulation that accounted for the variability in the exercise price upon the event of an up list based on the Company’s expected future stock prices over the -year term using inputs in line with those listed in Note 3. The remaining derivatives were valued at $1,862,450 on the issuance date based on the present value of their weighted average probability value.
As part of the issuance of the Convertible Notes, the Company incurred and capitalized debt issuance costs of $800,251 related to brokerage and legal fees that met the debt issuance cost capitalization criteria of ASC 835. The total discount related to the Convertible Notes on the date of issuance of $14,689,369 exceeded their value, which resulted in the Company recognizing a $3,689,369 loss on the issuance of the Convertible Notes during the three months ended October 31, 2021. The discount on the Convertible Notes will be amortized through the maturity date on a straight-line basis. Amortization of the debt discount during the three and nine months ended January 31, 2022 was $2,750,000 and $5,377,778, which was recorded in amortization of debt discounts in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
On December 31, 2021, the Company entered into an Omnibus Amendment Agreement (the “Omnibus Agreement”) with certain Purchasers who are collectively holders of 67% or more of the Securities outstanding related to the August 6, 2021 Convertible Notes, amending each of (i) the Purchase Agreement and (ii) the Registration Rights Agreement. Simultaneously with the execution of the Omnibus Agreement, the Company issued to each Purchaser a Replacement Note (as defined below) in replacement of the Convertible Note held prior to December 31, 2021 by such Purchaser (each, an “Existing Note”).
The Purchase Agreement was amended to, among other things, (i) delete Exhibit A and replace it in its entirety with the 8% Senior Convertible Note (the “Replacement Note”) filed as Exhibit 10.2 to the Company’s current report on Form 8-K dated January 5, 2021, (ii) add a new definition of “Inventory Financing”, (iii) amend Section 4.18 to add at the end of Section 4.18 before the final period “, it being agreed that the provisions of this Section 4.18 shall not apply to the Qualified Subsequent Financing expected to occur after the date hereof”, (iv) delete Section 4.20 and replace it in its entirety with substantially the same text, including the following after the period, replacing the period with a semicolon: “; provided that the provisions of this Section 4.20 shall not apply to (i) in respect of any Holder to the extent that such Holder is an investor or a purchaser of the securities offered pursuant such Subsequent Financing, and (ii) with respect to an Inventory Financing.”, and (v) add a new Section 4.21. Most-Favored Nation provision.
The Registration Rights Agreement was amended to, among other things, (i) delete the definition “Effectiveness Date” in Section 1 and replace it in its entirety with substantially the same text but revise the definition of “Effectiveness Date” causing the Initial Registration Statement required to be filed by January 31, 2022, and (ii) delete Section 2(d) and replace it in its entirety with substantially the same text but revised to delete the following “(2) no liquidated damages shall accrue or be payable hereunder with respect to any day on which the high price of the Common Stock on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or traded is less than the then-applicable Conversion Price,” resulting in renumbering the text that follows as (2) instead of (3).
As consideration for entering into the Omnibus Agreement, the outstanding principal balance of the Existing Note held by each Purchaser was increased by twenty percent (20%) and such increased principal balance is reflected on the Replacement Note issued to each Purchaser. The Company recognized a $2,200,000 loss on issuance of convertible notes during the three months ended January 31, 2022 related to this amendment.
The fair value of the derivative liability related to the Convertible Notes was $7,898,574 as of January 31, 2022, and the Company recognized a gain on change in fair value of $6,175,994 and $5,990,544 for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2022.
Total outstanding borrowings related to the Convertible Notes as of January 31, 2022 were $13,200,000. The outstanding amount is net of total discounts of $5,622,222 for a net book value of $7,577,778 as of January 31, 2022. Interest expense related to the Convertible Notes for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2022 was $234,799 and $445,021, respectively.

On April 15, 2021, the Company entered into a $2,000,000 note payable (the “Note”). The Note matures April 14, 2023 and bears interest at fifteen percent (15%) per year. The Company pays interest at maturity, at which time all principal and unpaid interest is due.
The Note is collateralized by all business assets, including patents, trademarks and other intellectual property. It is also collateralized by the ownership of Slinger Bag Americas, Slinger Bag Canada, SBL, and Slinger Bag UK.
In connection with the Note, the Company issued 2,200,000 warrants with an exercise price of $0.25. The exercise price has customary anti-dilution protection for stock splits, mergers, etc. Additionally, the warrants contain a stipulation that the Company will guarantee the value of the shares sold will be no less, on average, than $1.50 per share through April 15, 2023. If the average value of the shares sold is less than $1.50 per share, the Company will issue additional shares of common stock to compensate for the shortfall, which could result in an infinite number of shares being required to be issued.
The Company evaluated the warrants and the profit guarantee under the guidance in ASC 815 and determined they represent a derivative liability given the profit guarantee represents a make-whole provision that is not separated from the host instrument. The derivative liability is marked to market at the end of each reporting period with the non-cash gain or loss recorded in the period as a gain or loss on derivative (see Note 3).
On August 6, 2021, the Company used the net proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Notes (see Note 6) to pay 100% of the outstanding principal and accrued interest of the Note.
Amortization of the debt discount related to the Note during the three and nine months ended January 31, 2022 was $0 and $11,228, respectively, which was recorded in amortization of debt discounts in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. On the date the Note was paid off the unamortized debt discount balance of $1,978,295 was recognized as a loss on extinguishment of debt during the three months ended October 31, 2021.
On August 6, 2021, the Note payable holder exercised its right to convert its 2,200,000 outstanding warrants into shares of common stock of the Company. At the conversion date the Note payable holder also agreed to cancel the guarantee that the value of the shares sold will be no less, on average, than $1.50 per share through April 15, 2023.☐ In connection with the elimination of the profit guarantee the derivative liability ceased to exist at that time. On August 6, 2021, the fair value of the derivative liability was remeasured using a Black-Scholes option pricing model and determined to be $6,569,353. The change in fair value of the derivative through August 6, 2021, was recognized as a gain on change in fair value of derivatives of $0 and $6,014,245 for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2022, respectively, and the remaining value of the derivative of $6,569,353 was reclassified to additional paid-in capital as part of shareholders’ equity during the three months ended October 31, 2021 due to the related party nature of the transaction.
There were no outstanding borrowings related to the Note as of January 31, 2022. Interest expense related to the Note for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2022 amounted to $0 and $106,667, respectively.

Gameface shareholders also were granted piggyback registration rights, which expire when any applicable Consideration Shares can be freely traded pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act.
Out of the Consideration Shares, the Company has retained shares as security for the obligations of Mr. Shaik and Divyaa Jalal, as trustees for the Jalaluddin Shaik Family Trust, in respect of any claim which may be made by or on behalf of the Company for breach of warranty or under an indemnity given under the terms of the Share Purchase Agreements by August 2, 2023.

On October 6, 2021, the Company entered into a merger agreement (the “PlaySight Agreement”) with PlaySight Interactive Ltd. (“PlaySight”) and Rohit Krishnan, in his capacity as the Shareholders’ Representative (as defined in the PlaySight Agreement) (the “Shareholder Representative”), pursuant to which PlaySight will, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain closing conditions, become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

As a result of the parties to the Agreement having agreed to such adjustment, the parties to the Amendment have agreed that the Completion Merger Consideration shall comprise the issue by the Company of 25,379,683 shares of the Company’s common stock and the Options in exchange for the merger, and a cash sum equal to the value of shares of the Company’s common stock (which would otherwise have been issued in exchange for the merger) to be used to cover certain expenses.

We are monitoring any broader economic impact from the current crisis. The specific impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows is also not determinable as of the date of these financial statements. However, to the extent that such military action spreads to other countries, intensifies, or otherwise remains active, such action could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. |

| Interim Financial Statements | Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and based upon Securities and Exchange Commission rules that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. For a more complete discussion of significant accounting policies and certain other information, you should refer to the financial statements included in Slinger Bag Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2021. These financial statements reflect all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of results of operations and financial condition for the interim periods shown, including normal recurring accruals and other items. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Financial Statement Reclassification | Financial Statement Reclassification
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in these consolidated financial statements to conform to current year presentation.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The majority of payments due from banks for credit card transactions process within 24 to 48 hours and are accordingly classified as cash and cash equivalents.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Accounts Receivable | Accounts Receivable
The Company’s accounts receivable are non-interest bearing trade receivables resulting from the sale of products and payable over terms ranging from 15 to 60 days. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts at the point when collection is considered doubtful. Once all collection efforts have been exhausted, the Company charges-off the receivable with the allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company had a $10,000 and $0 allowance for doubtful accounts as of January 31, 2022 and April 30, 2021, respectively.

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Inventory | Inventory
Inventory is valued at the lower of the cost (determined principally on a first-in, first-out basis) or net realizable value. The Company’s valuation of inventory includes inventory reserves for inventory that will be sold below cost and the impact of inventory shrink. Inventory reserves are based on historical information and assumptions about future demand and inventory shrink trends. The Company’s inventory as of January 31, 2022 consisted of $4,532,972 of finished goods, $2,441,085 of component and replacement parts, $1,945,664 of capitalized duty and freight, and a $250,000 inventory reserve.

|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Concentration of Credit Risk | Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed insured limits. The Company continually monitors its banking relationships and consequently has not experienced any losses in such accounts. While we may be exposed to credit risk, we consider the risk remote and do not expect that any such risk would result in a significant effect on our results of operations or financial condition.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, the core principle of which is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company recognizes revenue for its performance obligation associated with its contracts with customers at a point in time once products are shipped. Amounts collected from customers in advance of shipping products ordered are reflected as deferred revenue on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s standard terms are non-cancelable and do not provide for the right-of-return, other than for defective merchandise covered under the Company’s standard warranty. The Company has not historically experienced any significant returns or warranty issues.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The three-tier hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value, which prioritizes the inputs used in the methodologies of measuring fair value for assets and liabilities, is as follows:
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities Level 3 — Unobservable pricing inputs in the market
Financial assets and financial liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurements requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities being measured and their categorization within the fair value hierarchy.
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due to their short-term maturity.
The Company’s derivative liabilities were calculated using Level 2 assumptions on the issuance and balance sheet dates via a Black-Scholes option pricing model and consisted of the following ending balances and gain amounts as of and for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2022:
The Black-Scholes option pricing model assumptions for the derivative liabilities during the nine months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021 consisted of the following:
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Income Taxes | Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts that are more likely than not to be realized.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Goodwill | Goodwill
The Company accounts for goodwill in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (“ASC 350”). ASC 350 requires that goodwill not be amortized, but reviewed for impairment if impairment indicators arise and, at a minimum, annually.
The goodwill impairment test is a two-step test. In the first step, the Company compares the fair value of each reporting unit with goodwill to its carrying value. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units with goodwill using a combination of a discounted cash flow and a market value approach. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired and the Company is not required to perform further testing. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds the fair value of the reporting unit, then the Company must perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test in order to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill and compare it to the carrying value of the reporting unit’s goodwill. The activities in the second step include valuing the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference.
There was no impairment of goodwill during the nine months ended January 31, 2022 or 2021.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Intangible Assets | Intangible Assets
Intangible assets relate to the “Slinger” technology trademark, which the Company purchased on November 10, 2020, as well as the intangible assets related to the purchase of Foundation Sports on June 21, 2021 (see Note 4). The Slinger trademark is amortized over its expected life of 20 years. Amortization expense for the nine months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021 related to the Slinger trademark was $4,348 and $1,299, respectively.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Long-Lived Assets | Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with ASC 360-10, the Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable. When such factors and circumstances exist, the Company compares the projected undiscounted future cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amount. If those net undiscounted cash flows do not exceed the carrying amount, impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value based on the market value or discounted expected cash flows of those assets and is recorded in the period in which the determination is made. There was no impairment of long-lived assets identified during the nine months ended January 31, 2022 or 2021.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Share-Based Payments |
The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). Under the fair value recognition provisions of this topic, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Warrants | Warrants
The Company grants warrants to key employees and executives as compensation on a discretionary basis. The Company also grants warrants in connection with certain note payable agreements and other key arrangements. The Company is required to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the measurement date and recognize as expense that value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest over the requisite service period. Warrants granted in connection with ongoing arrangements are more fully described in Note 6: Convertible Notes Payable, Note 7: Note Payable and Note 10: Shareholders’ Equity.
The warrants granted during the nine months ended January 31, 2022 and 2021 were valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model on the date of grant using the following assumptions:
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Foreign Currency Translation | Foreign Currency Translation
A portion of SBL’s operations are conducted in Israel and its functional currency is the Israeli Shekel, the Company’s operations of Slinger Bag Canada are conducted in its functional currency of Canadian Dollars, and the Company’s Slinger Bag UK operations are conducted in its functional currency of the British pound (“GBP”). The accounts of SBL, Slinger Bag Canada, and Slinger Bag UK have been translated into U.S. dollars (“USD”). Assets and liabilities are translated into USD at the applicable exchange rates at period-end. Shareholders’ equity is translated using historical exchange rates. Revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. Any translation adjustments are included as foreign currency translation adjustments on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Earnings Per Share |
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing income available to shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period.
The Company had and common shares issuable as of January 31, 2022 and 2021, which were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share as the effect is antidilutive. The Company also had outstanding convertible notes payable that were convertible into and shares of common stock as of January 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, outstanding warrants exercisable into and shares of common stock as of January 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and and shares related to make-whole provisions as of January 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as the effect is antidilutive. As a result, the basic and diluted earnings per share are the same for each of the periods presented.
