NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Coyni, Inc. (“we”, “our”, the “Company” or “Coyni”) is a Nevada Corporation that previously consisted of the networking service (carrier/circuit) business. It provided internet connectivity to corporate clients on a subscription basis; essentially operating as a value-added provider until it ceased operations effective June 30, 2014.
The Company was originally incorporated as Solis Communications, Inc. on July 23, 2001. On March 19, 2015, the Company changed its name to Logicquest Technology, Inc. (“Logicquest”) from Bluegate Corporation. On June 23, 2023, the Company changed its name to Coyni, Inc. (“Coyni”).
The Company currently has no operations and the Company’s Board of Directors is currently seeking investment opportunities. Effective on April 7, 2023, the selling shareholder of our Company, who owned
Following is a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies:
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of the Company, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in Coyni’s Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods. We considered the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our estimates and assumptions and there was not a material impact to our financial statements as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, and for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Actual results could differ from estimates making it reasonably possible that a change in the estimates could occur in the near term.
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of the Company’s securities and their immediate families, (ii) the Company’s management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Company, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including prepaid expenses and accrued liabilities, the carrying amounts approximate fair values due to their short maturities.
Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free-market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated.
It is not, however, practical to determine the fair value of amounts due to related parties and lease and management arrangement with related parties, if any, due to their related party nature.
INCOME TAXES
The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences on future years of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial amounts at year-end. The Company provides a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to their net realizable value.
The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon settlement.
LOSS PER SHARE
Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. The Company does not have any potentially dilutive instruments for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Accordingly, basic and diluted losses per share were identical for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.
STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
The Company accounts for share-based compensation awards in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”. The cost of services received from employees and non-employees in exchange for awards of equity instruments is recognized in the statement of operations based on the estimated fair value of those awards on the grant date and amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period or vesting period. The Company records forfeitures as they occur.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
All new accounting pronouncements issued but not yet effective or adopted have been deemed not to be relevant to us, hence are not expected to have any impact once adopted.

These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements contained herein do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in existence. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient cash flows to meet our obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional financing as may be required, and ultimately to attain profitable operations. However, there is no assurance that profitable operations or sufficient cash flows will occur in the future.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may”, “should”, “expects”, “plans”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “estimates”, “predicts”, “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other 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 these forward-looking statements. 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. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.
Our unaudited financial statements are stated in United States Dollars (US$) and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“US GAAP”). All references to “common shares” refer to the common shares in our capital stock.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this quarterly report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this quarterly report.
As used in this quarterly report, the terms “we”, “us”, “our”, “our company” and “Coyni” mean Coyni, Inc., unless otherwise indicated.
OVERVIEW
Our company was formed on July 23, 2001 when Solis Communications, Inc., a company incorporated in the State of Texas on February 26, 2001, completed the acquisition of Berens Industries, Inc., a company originally incorporated in the State of Nevada on January 9, 1985. On September 17, 2001, we changed our name to Crescent Communications Inc. d.b.a Crescent Broadband. On November 15, 2004, we changed our name to Bluegate Corporation. On March 19, 2015, we changed our name to Logicquest Technology, Inc. On June 23, 2023, the Company changed its name to Coyni, Inc. (“Coyni”).
We are a Nevada corporation that previously operated as a broadband network service provider, providing internet connectivity to corporate clients on a subscription basis. During May 2014 our board of directors authorized an orderly wind-down of our Company’s internet connectivity business which ceased effective June 30, 2014.
We are currently a company with no operations. To sustain our company’s operation, our board is currently seeking investment opportunities. At this stage, we can provide no assurance that we will be able to locate compatible business opportunities, what additional financing we will require to complete a business opportunity, or whether the opportunity’s operations will be profitable. If we are unable to secure adequate capital to continue our business, our shareholders will lose some or all of their investment and our business will likely fail.
Effective on April 7, 2023, the selling shareholder of our Company, who owns 99.16% equity ownership of the Company and also holds a control position in the Company sold all of his equity interest in the Company (consisting of 99,457,724 shares of restricted common stock, 48 shares of Series C convertible non-redeemable preferred stock and 10 shares of Series D convertible non-redeemable preferred stock) to RYVYL, Inc. for a total purchase price of $225,000. After giving effect to the purchases, RYVYL, Inc. became the major and controlling shareholder of the Company.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2022
We had a net loss of $38,419 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 which was $19,437 more than the net loss of $18,982 for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in our net loss was mainly due to increased professional fee.

We did not earn any revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2023 or 2022.
Operating expenses
We had $38,419 general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $19,437 from $18,982 general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2022, the increase was mainly due to increased professional fees of $19,437.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022
We had a net loss of $325,984 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which was $133,182 more than the net loss of $192,802 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in our net loss was mainly due to the increase in stock-based compensation expense and professional fee which was partly offset by a decrease in interest expenses resulting from clearing up of all the outstanding notes by the Company in June 2022.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we had stock-based compensation expense of $221,702 paid to the Company’s former major shareholder and the director.

We anticipate generating losses and, therefore, may be unable to continue operations further in the future.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
We did not generate any revenues nor have any cash activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022; however, we had professional fees of $104,282 and stock compensation expense of $221,702 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
We did not have any investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.
We did not have any financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.
To date we have relied on proceeds from the sale of our shares and on loans from officers and directors, related companies and an independent third party in order to sustain our basic, minimum operating expenses; however, we cannot guarantee that we will secure any further sales of our shares or that our officers and directors, related companies or the independent third party will provide us with any future loans. We intend to use debt to cover the anticipated negative cash flows until we can operate at a break-even cash flow mode. We may seek additional capital to fund potential costs associated with possible expansion and/or acquisitions. We believe that future funding may be obtained from public or private offerings of equity securities, debt or convertible debt securities, or other sources. Stockholders should assume that any additional funding will likely be dilutive.
We are not aware of any known trends, demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that will result in or that are reasonably likely to result in our liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate these estimates. We base our estimates on historical experience and on assumptions that are believed to be reasonable. These estimates and assumptions provide a basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, and these differences may be material. See Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements included in this quarterly report for a summary of significant accounting policies and the effect on our unaudited financial statements.
GOING CONCERN
During the nine and three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we have been unable to generate cash flows sufficient to support our operations and have been dependent on debt raised from related parties and independent third parties. We experienced negative financial results as follows:

These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements contained herein do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in existence. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient cash flows to meet our obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional financing as may be required, and ultimately to attain profitable operations. However, there is no assurance that profitable operations or sufficient cash flows will occur in the future.
Prior to April 7, 2023, our operations was primarily funded by Logicquest Technology Limited, a company controlled by the Company’s former Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Cheng Yew Siong. Effective on April 7, 2023, the selling shareholder of the Company, who owns 99.16% equity ownership of the Company and also holds a control position in the Company sold all of his equity interest in the Company (consisting of 99,457,724 shares of restricted common stock, 48 shares of Series C convertible non-redeemable preferred stock and 10 shares of Series D convertible non-redeemable preferred stock) to RYVYL, Inc. for a total purchase price of $225,000.
These steps have provided us with the cash flows to continue our business, but have not resulted in significant improvement in our financial position. We are considering alternatives to address our cash flow situation that include:
● |
Raising capital through additional sale of our common stock and/or debt securities. |
|
● |
Reducing cash operating expenses to levels that are in line with current revenues. |
These alternatives could result in substantial dilution of existing stockholders. There can be no assurance that our current financial position can be improved, that we can raise additional working capital or that we can achieve positive cash flows from operations. Our long-term viability as a going concern is dependent upon the following:
● |
Our ability to locate sources of debt or equity funding to meet current commitments and near-term future requirements. |
|
● |
Our ability to achieve profitability and ultimately generate sufficient cash flow from operations to sustain our continuing operations. |
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, and capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
As a smaller reporting company, as defined in 17 CFR § 229.10(f)(1), we are not required to provide the information requested by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
The Company’s Chief Executive, Ben Errez, is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures for the Company.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We are required to maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, our principal accounting officer has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective such that the information relating to our company, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, who until such time the Company hires a Chief Financial Officer/Treasurer will be serving as our principal accounting officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure as a result of continuing weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.
As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, based on management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, management concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2022, due to insufficiently qualified accounting and other finance personnel with an appropriate level of U.S. GAAP knowledge and experience, to effectively address the U.S. GAAP accounting financial reporting, internal control, and other regulatory compliance requirements and lack of segregation of duties. Management believes that our lack of experience with U.S. GAAP and lack of segregation of duties constitutes material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which also resulted in the restatement contained in this Form 10-Q/A. Until such time, if ever, that we remediate the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting we expect that the material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures will continue.
Report of Management
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”), as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Our ICFR is designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. Management conducted an assessment of our ICFR based on the framework and criteria established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013). Based on the assessment, management concluded that, as of September 30, 2023, our ICFR was not effective at the reasonable assurance level based on those criteria.
Our independent public accountant has not conducted an audit of our controls and procedures regarding ICFR and therefore expresses no opinion with regards to the effectiveness or implementation of our controls and procedures with regards to ICFR.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2023, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
The Company’s management does not expect that its disclosure controls or its ICFR will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
