NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 i 

NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND HISTORY

 

Description of business

 

The Company was originally incorporated on May 17, 2017, under the laws of the State of Delaware to engage in any lawful corporate undertaking, including, but not limited to, selected mergers and acquisitions. On May 23, 2018, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company was amended to effect a change in the Company’s name from “Iris Grove Acquisition Corporation” to “CannAssist International Corporation”. On September 28, 2021, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company was amended a second time to effect a change in the Company’s name from “CannAssist International Corporation” to the name “Electronic Servitor Publication Network, Inc.” The Company’s common stock trades on the OTCQB Venture Market under the stock ticker symbol “XESP,” previously from “CNSC,” effective January 26, 2022. The Company's corporate office is located at 400 1ST Ave N., Ste. 100, Minneapolis, MN 55401. The URL of the Company’s website is https://www.xespn.com.

 

The Company’s business focuses on driving growth for brands through effective digital interactions within current and new communities. The Company’s licensed proprietary technology, the Digital Engagement Engine, utilizes a combination of automation, unique data management, and a modern workflow built on a microservices architecture to achieve greater reach and lift for content providers.

 

On July 1, 2021, and effective on October 9, 2021, Mark Palumbo, a former officer and director of the Company, and Forty 7 Select Holdings LLC, an entity controlled by Greg Shockey (who was an existing shareholder of the Company), entered into an agreement pursuant to which Mark Palumbo transferred all of his 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (representing 100% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Stock), of the Company to Forty 7 Select Holdings LLC in a private transaction. The Series A Preferred Stock provides the holder thereof the right to vote 60% of the Company’s voting shares on any and all shareholder matters and thereby constituted a change of control of the Company. Further, Mark Palumbo contributed 7,500,000 shares of common stock held by him to the treasury of the Company for cancellation at no cost (the “Contribution”).

 

On July 23, 2021, the Company entered into a Technology License Agreement with Phitech Management, LLC, an entity controlled by Peter Hager (“Licensor”), to use, market, promote and distribute certain technology relating to content provisioning including the related patent applications, trade-secrets and associated knowhow, including methods, techniques, specifications, procedures, information, systems, knowledge and business processes required to practice and carry on business in the field of data collection, security and management (the “Technology”). The initial term of the License is 10-years (the “Initial Term”) and shall automatically be renewed for successive 1-year terms (each, a “Renewal Term”) unless the Company elects to terminate the License by giving 30 days’ written notice prior to commencement of a Renewal Term. In exchange for the License of the Technology, the Company issues to the Licensor 10,000,000 restricted shares of its common stock (which is an amount equal to $2,500,000 divided by $0.25, which was the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the trading day prior to the effective date of the License Agreement). On October 9, 2021, at the Closing of the Technology License Agreement, the Company received the License to the Technology and issued Licensor 10,000,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock, at a cost basis of $0.25 per share.

On July 23, 2021, the Company and Mark Palumbo entered into an agreement (the “Spin-Off Agreement”) whereby, at the Closing, the Company shall transfer 100% of the issued and outstanding membership units of Xceptor LLC, an entity that was a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, to Mark Palumbo (along with the assets and liabilities associated with the prior business) for nominal consideration as a condition of the Change-in-Control (the “Spin-Off”). Furthermore, at the Closing, that certain Technology License Agreement entered into by and between the Company and Mark Palumbo dated April 29, 2019 (the “Palumbo License Agreement”) shall be terminated and the Company shall assign all rights to the underlying Intellectual Property (as defined in the Palumbo License Agreement) to Mark Palumbo. On October 9, 2021, at the Closing of the Spin-Off Agreement, the Company transferred 100% of the issued and outstanding membership units of Xceptor LLC to Mark Palumbo (along with the assets and liabilities associated with the prior business) in exchange for nominal consideration, and the Palumbo License Agreement was terminated.

 

As a result of the transactions described above, the Company is strategically aligning its business to support its mission in becoming the premier content management and distribution platform for content providers in the global markets through the Company’s continued development and acquisitions of publication and monetization products, services, and technologies.

 

 i 

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

 i 

Basis of Presentation

The Company’s unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which management believes are necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company as of and for the period ending September 30, 2023 and not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2023. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

 

 i 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

 i 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

We maintain our cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed federally insured limits. We continually monitor our banking relationships and consequently have not experienced any losses in our accounts. At times, such deposits may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurable amount (“FDIC”).

 

 i 

Cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. There were  i  i no /  cash equivalents for the periods ended September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

 

 / 
 i 

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

The Company has implemented all new applicable accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

 i 

NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has generated revenues of $ i 45,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and had a net loss of $ i 776,023 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $ i 7,138,504 as of September 30, 2023. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate revenue to satisfy its obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitability. There is no guarantee that the Company’s activities will generate sufficient revenues to sustain its operations, or its ability to sell its services to generate consistent profitability. In order to maintain operations, the Company may have to raise additional capital from equity financing and/or from its officers, directors, or principal stockholders, subject to terms obtainable and satisfactory to the Company. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise additional funds or to do so at an advantageous price. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.

Executive Overview

The Company's corporate office is located at 400 1ST Ave N., Ste. 100, Minneapolis, MN 55401. The URL of the Company’s website is https://www.xespn.com. The Company’s telephone number is (833) 991-0800.

The Company’s common stock trades on the OTCQB Venture Market under the stock ticker symbol “XESP.”

 

On July 1, 2021, and effective on October 9, 2021, Mark Palumbo, a former officer and director of the Company, and Forty 7 Select Holdings LLC, an entity controlled by Greg Shockey (who was an existing shareholder of the Company), entered into an agreement pursuant to which Mark Palumbo transferred all of his 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (representing 100% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Stock), of the Company to Forty 7 Select Holdings LLC in a private transaction. The Series A Preferred Stock provides the holder thereof the right to vote 60% of the Company’s voting shares on any and all shareholder matters and thereby constituted a change of control of the Company. Further, Mark Palumbo contributed 7,500,000 shares of common stock held by him to the treasury of the Company for cancellation at no cost (the “Contribution”). 

 

On July 23, 2021, the Company entered into a Technology License Agreement with Phitech Management, LLC, an entity controlled by Peter Hager (“Licensor”), to use, market, promote and distribute certain technology relating to content provisioning including the related patent applications, trade-secrets and associated knowhow, including methods, techniques, specifications, procedures, information, systems, knowledge and business processes required to practice and carry on business in the field of data collection, security and management (the “Technology”). The initial term of the License is 10-years (the “Initial Term”) and shall automatically be renewed for successive 1-year terms (each, a “Renewal Term”) unless the Company elects to terminate the License by giving 30 days’ written notice prior to commencement of a Renewal Term. In exchange for the License of the Technology, the Company issues to the Licensor 10,000,000 restricted shares of its common stock (which is an amount equal to $2,500,000 divided by $0.25, which was the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the trading day prior to the effective date of the License Agreement). On October 9, 2021, at the Closing of the Technology License Agreement, the Company received the License to the Technology and issued Licensor 10,000,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock, at a cost basis of $0.25 per share. 

 

On July 23, 2021, the Company and Mark Palumbo entered into an agreement (the “Spin-Off Agreement”) whereby, at the Closing, the Company shall transfer 100% of the issued and outstanding membership units of Xceptor LLC, an entity that was a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, to Mark Palumbo (along with the assets and liabilities associated with the prior business) for nominal consideration as a condition of the Change-in-Control (the “Spin-Off”). Furthermore, at the Closing, that certain Technology License Agreement entered into by and between the Company and Mark Palumbo dated April 29, 2019 (the “Palumbo License Agreement”) shall be terminated and the Company shall assign all rights to the underlying Intellectual Property (as defined in the Palumbo License Agreement) to Mark Palumbo. On October 9, 2021, at the Closing of the Spin-Off Agreement, the Company transferred 100% of the issued and outstanding membership units of Xceptor LLC to Mark Palumbo (along with the assets and liabilities associated with the prior business) in exchange for nominal consideration, and the Palumbo License Agreement was terminated.

 

The Company anticipates that it would need approximately $1,500,000 over the next 12 months to continue as a going concern, satisfy its capital commitments and continue its operations in accordance with its current business plan. In addition to revenues generated from sales, the Chief Executive Officer and several shareholders may fund the Company’s operations, if needed, during the next 12 months or until the Company can generate an ongoing source of capital sufficient to independently continue its operations.

 

Although the Company is no longer classified as a development-stage company, it has limited operating history and is expected to experience losses in the near term. The Company’s independent auditors have issued a report raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Note 2 to the Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Financial Statements. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, contingencies and taxes.  Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The following critical accounting policies are impacted significantly by judgments, assumptions, and estimates used in the preparation of the Financial Statements.

 

We are subject to various loss contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business.  We consider the likelihood of loss or impairment of an asset or the incurrence of a liability, as well as our ability to reasonably estimate the amount of loss in determining loss contingencies.  An estimated loss contingency is accrued when management concludes that it is probable that an asset has been impaired, or a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.  We regularly evaluate current information available to us to determine whether such accruals should be adjusted.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements 

 

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

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to be effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, they concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed at a reasonable assurance level and are effective for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2023

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Over the past year, we have implemented changes to our internal control over financial reporting, including hiring Peter Hager as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and instituting processes whereby Jim Kellogg, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, can oversee internal controls. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

 

In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance of achieving the desired objectives. Also, 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.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

 

On November 4, 2021, a lawsuit captioned CAMRON ELIZABETH v. MARK PALUMBO et al., Case No. CVPS2106116 was filed in the Superior Court of California, County of Riverside against the Company and certain of the former company’s (CannAssist International Corp.) executive officers (collectively, the “Defendants”). The Plaintiff and the former company (CannAssist International Corp.) entered into a Consulting Agreement dated November 20, 2020 (the “Consulting Agreement”), pursuant to which Plaintiff was engaged to provide certain sales and marketing services to that Company. As a condition of this Consulting Agreement, Plaintiff was paid a monthly fee and was granted restricted shares of the common stock of the former company that were subject to certain vesting conditions tied to Plaintiff’s service under the Consulting Agreement. The Consulting Agreement also contained provisions that enabled the former company to terminate the Consulting Agreement without cause after 10 days’ written notice. In September 2021, the former company exercised its right to terminate the Consulting Agreement because management of the former company at the time of termination was dissatisfied with the quality of Plaintiff’s services under the Consulting Agreement. Specifically, management of the former company at the time of termination received complaints from third parties that Plaintiff behaved inappropriately in meetings where Plaintiff made presentations to potential clients and vendors on behalf of the former company. In contrast, Plaintiff alleges, among other things, that the Defendants improperly misclassified Plaintiff as an independent contractor, that certain of the former company’s executive officers committed sexual harassment and defamation and that Defendants unlawfully terminated Plaintiff. The Company believes it should not be a party to the lawsuit since the former company, including its operations, officers, employees, contractors, assets, and liabilities were all spun out as part of or as a result of the Spin Out Agreement dated July 23, 2021, and the Plaintiff never contracted with or was employed by the current Company. A jury trial has been set for January 19, 2024. The Company believes that the lawsuit is without merit and intends to defend the lawsuit vigorously; however, there can be no assurance regarding the ultimate outcome of this lawsuit.

 

Other than as described above, we know of no other material, existing or pending legal proceedings against the Company, nor is it involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. Other than as described above, we know of no other proceedings in which our directors, officers or any affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

 

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and, as such, are not required to provide the information under this Item.
