Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

 

As an issuer with less than $1 billion in total annual gross revenues during our last fiscal year, we will qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) and this status will be significant if and when we become subject to the ongoing reporting requirements of the Exchange Act upon filing a Form 8-A. An emerging growth company may take advantage of certain reduced reporting requirements and is relieved of certain other significant requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to public companies. In particular, as an emerging growth company we:

 

  ¨ will not be required to obtain an auditor attestation on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;

 

  ¨ will not be required to provide a detailed narrative disclosure discussing our compensation principles, objectives and elements and analyzing how those elements fit with our principles and objectives (commonly referred to as “compensation discussion and analysis”);

 

  ¨ will not be required to obtain a non-binding advisory vote from our shareholders on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements (commonly referred to as the “say-on-pay,” “say-on-frequency” and “say-on-golden-parachute” votes);

 

  ¨ will be exempt from certain executive compensation disclosure provisions requiring a pay-for-performance graph and CEO pay ratio disclosure;

 

  ¨ may present only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, or MD&A; and will be eligible to claim longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards.

 

We intend to take advantage of all of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions, including the longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards, and hereby elect to do so. Our election to use the phase-in periods may make it difficult to compare our financial statements to those of non-emerging growth companies and other emerging growth companies that have opted out of the phase-in periods under Section 107 of the JOBS Act.

 

Under the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of the above-described reduced reporting requirements and exemptions for up to five years after our initial sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or such earlier time that we no longer meet the definition of an emerging growth company. Note that this offering, while a public offering, is not a sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement, since the offering is conducted pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements. In this regard, the JOBS Act provides that we would cease to be an “emerging growth company” if we have more than $1 billion in annual revenues, have more than $700 million in market value of our Common Stock held by non-affiliates, or issue more than $1 billion in principal amount of non-convertible debt over a three-year period.

 

Certain of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions are also available to us due to the fact that we may also qualify, once listed, as a “smaller reporting company” under the Commission’s rules. For instance, smaller reporting companies are not required to obtain an auditor attestation on their assessment of internal control over financial reporting; are not required to provide a compensation discussion and analysis; are not required to provide a pay-for-performance graph or CEO pay ratio disclosure; and may present only two years of audited financial statements and related MD&A disclosure.

Bobacino Company Overview

 

Future Pearl Labs, Inc., doing business as Bobacino, has built an automated vending machine that makes fresh boba drinks on demand. Our team has a wealth of experience in automation and kitchen technology, and we are bringing this experience to build the first automated boba machine. We are backed by Future VC, LLC and have received meaningful support from Embark Ventures. Additionally, we are backed by Wavemaker Labs, Inc. (f/k/a Future Labs VII, Inc.), an in-house robotics and automation venture studio. We are based in El Segundo, California. We have completed a preliminary prototype of our product, which is fully functional, and are currently developing our first prototype that will be commercially viable and able to be manufactured at scale. The Company had limited cash resources of its own during this time, and our reliance on Wavemaker Labs has pushed back our next product development phase into Q4 of 2021, resulting in anticipated production and delivery of its first batch of working pods in early 2022. We plan to help boba shop owners reach untapped markets with the help of Bobacino’s small footprint and lower operating costs.

Industry Overview

 

Boba was created in Taiwan in 1986 and quickly became a cultural staple in Asia, eventually gaining worldwide popularity in the 2000s. The worldwide bubble tea market was estimated at $1.9 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow to over to $4.3 billion by 2028, according to a report by Verified Market Research dated October 2021. Despite this growth and popularity, boba shops are heavily concentrated on the coasts in the United States.

 

Our Product

 

We have completed a preliminary prototype, which offers a selection of boba flavors to customers. With the help of a robotic arm, the machine fills a cup with boba pearls (tapioca), ice, tea, milk, and sweetener before sealing the cup with a lid and serving it to the customer. We currently have a team of part-time employees at Wavemaker Labs that manage all our product development efforts. We have already started business development efforts and have started to source partners and potential customers for our business. Bobacino is leveraging automation to introduce new markets across the US to boba. To date, we have not registered any IP, but we do plan to make IP generation a part of this business.

 

Selected Risks Associated with the Business

 

Our business is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including those highlighted in the section titled “Risk Factors” immediately following this summary. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

 

  We have a limited operating history upon which to evaluate our performance and have not yet generated profits or revenue.

 

  Our technology is not yet fully developed, and there is no guarantee that we will be able to develop and produce a commercially viable prototype of our core product.

 

  We may not find suppliers to manufacture the machines.

 

  We will be required to raise additional capital in order to develop our technology and product.

 

  Our company does not yet hold any patents on any products or technology.

 

  We rely on a small management team to execute our business plan.

 

  We could be adversely affected by product liability, personal injury, or other health and safety issues.

 

  Competitive technologies could limit our ability to successfully deploy our technologies.

 

  We plan to initially rely on third-party manufacturers.

 

  We may need to raise additional capital, which might not be available or might be available only on terms unfavorable to us or our investors.

 

  There is no current market for any shares of the Company's stock.

Risk Factors

 

The SEC requires that we identify risks that are specific to our business and financial condition. We are still subject to all the same risks that all companies in our business, and all companies in the economy, are exposed to. These include risks relating to economic downturns, political and economic events, and technological developments (such as hacking and the ability to prevent hacking). Additionally, early-stage companies are inherently riskier than more developed companies. You should consider general risks as well as specific risks when deciding whether to invest.

 

Risks Related to Our Company

 

We have a limited operating history upon which to evaluate our performance and have not yet generated profits or revenue.

 

We are a new company and have neither generated revenue, nor have we had any significant operating history. As such, it is difficult to determine how we will perform, as our core product has yet to come market.

 

Our technology is not yet fully developed, and there is no guarantee that we will be able to develop and produce a version of our core product that is ready for mass production.

 

We still have significant engineering and development work to do before we are ready to deliver a commercially viable version of our product that can be mass produced. We may be unable to develop a version that can easily be replicated and put into mass production via contract manufacturing partners.

 

We will be required to raise additional capital in order to develop our technology and minimum viable product.

 

We will not be able to deliver a commercially viable version of our product to our corporate partners if we cannot raise debt or equity financing.

 

Our company does not yet hold any full patents on any products or technology.

 

We do not hold any full patents on our product, and so cannot guarantee that our product or technology is proprietary nor that it may be copied by another competitor. Because of this, our technology is not currently proprietary and could be copied by other companies.

 

We rely on a small management team to execute our business plan.

 

Our management team is currently small and made up of only one individual, Darian Ahler, whom we rely on to help us raise funds and help grow our business. Our partnerships and our relationships with boba shops is crucial for us to achieve our growth plan. As CEO, Darian Ahler brings a great deal of experience in the food automation space. Additionally, we have a strategic advisor and Chief Boba Officer, Stacey Kwong, co-founder of Milk+T. Stacey brings extensive industry and operational knowledge.

 

 C: 

 

 

We plan to rely on third-party manufacturers for production at scale.

 

We will be leveraging contract manufacturers as we build up production scale. Because of this, we will have less control of our supply chain as we grow the business, which could affect our ability to meet customer demand. Additionally, we do not currently have any manufacturers in place, and will need to work to find these relationships before we can begin mass production.

 

We may need to raise additional capital, which might not be available or might be available only on terms unfavorable to us or our investors.

 

In order to continue to operate and grow the business, we will likely need to raise additional capital beyond this current financing round by offering shares of our Common or Preferred Stock and/or other classes of equity. All of these would result in dilution to our existing investors, plus they may include additional rights or terms that may be unfavorable to our existing investor base. We cannot assure you that the necessary funds will be available on a timely basis, on favorable terms, or at all, or that such funds, if raised, would be sufficient. The level and timing of future expenditure will depend on a number of factors, many of which are outside our control. If we are not able to obtain additional capital on acceptable terms, or at all, we may be forced to curtail or abandon our growth plans, which could adversely impact the Company, its business, development, financial condition, operating results or prospects.

 

Any valuation at this stage is difficult to assess.

 

The valuation for this Offering was established by the Company and is not based on the financial results of the Company. Instead, it is based on management’s best estimates of the investment value of the Company, which is a subjective measure. This differs significantly from listed companies, which are valued publicly through market-driven stock prices. The valuation of private companies, especially early-stage companies, is difficult to assess and you may risk overpaying for your investment.

 

Our auditor has issued a “going concern” opinion.

 

Our auditor has issued a “going concern” opinion on our financial statements, which means they are not sure that we will be able to succeed as a business without additional financing. As of December 31, 2020, the date of our last audited financial statements, we had not yet commenced any revenue-generating activity and had sustained a net loss of $1,150,708 for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2020. Our ability to continue for the next twelve months is dependent upon our ability to generate cash from operating activities and/or to raise additional capital to fund our operations. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts. Our failure to raise additional capital could have a negative impact on not only our financial condition but also our ability to execute our business plan.

  

We have an accruing liability to a related party.

 

Wavemaker Labs, Inc. (f/k/a Future Labs VII, Inc.) (“Wavemaker Labs”) is an affiliate of the Company and provides various consulting services pursuant to a Master Services Agreement to Bobacino in relation to the development of the Bobacino machine (MSA included as Exhibit 6.2 to the offering statement of which this offering circular is part). Under this agreement, Wavemaker Labs invoices the Company as much as twice a month for each hour of labor exerted and all materials expenses. Invoices not paid within fifteen (15) days become past due and are immediately assessed a default rate of 2% per month, added to the amount due and prorated starting from the date of the original invoice. The total amount outstanding under this agreement as of December 31, 2020 was $967,020, and as of June 30, 2021 was $1,233,293. The Company has received assurances from Wavemaker Labs that it will not take action regarding any amount due in default; instead, any amount owed will continue to accrue at the aforementioned rate of 2% per month.

 

A portion of this capital raise may be used to repay an outstanding liability.

 

So long as the Company raised at least $2.0 million in this offering, we may repay some or all of our current liability to Wavemaker Labs. The liability was incurred for past services related to the development of the Bobacino machine. By using proceeds in this offering for past expenses, it means we will not be able to use those proceeds to future development of the Bobacino machine or other business development activities.

 

 C: 

 

 

Our future revenue plans rely on white-labeling our product to existing boba tea brands.

 

Our largest stream of projected revenue comes from selling our pods as “white-labeled” products to existing boba tea brands. If we are unable to create partnerships and achieve these sales to existing boba tea brands it will greatly affect our business model and jeopardize our go-to-market strategy.

 

The Company’s business model is capital intensive.

 

The amount of capital the Company is attempting to raise in this Offering is not enough to sustain the Company’s current business plan. In order to achieve near- and long-term goals, the Company will need to procure funds in addition to the amount raised in the Offering. There is no guarantee the Company will be able to raise such funds on acceptable terms or at all. If the Company is not able to raise sufficient capital in the future, then it will not be able to execute its business plan, its continued operations will be in jeopardy, and it may be forced to cease operations and sell or otherwise transfer all or substantially all of its remaining assets, which could cause a Purchaser to lose all or a portion of his or her investment.

 

We could be adversely affected by product liability, personal injury, or other health and safety issues.

 

As with any company serving food, we must adhere to strict health and safety standards. We could suffer significant reputational damage and financial liability if we experience any of the foregoing health and safety issues or incidents, which could have a material adverse effect on our business operations, financial condition, and results of operations.

  

Using a credit card to purchase shares may impact the return on your investment, as well as subject you to other risks inherent in this form of payment.

 

Investors in this offering have the option of paying for their investment with a credit card, which is not usual in the traditional investment markets. Transaction fees charged by your credit card company (which can reach 5% of transaction value if considered a cash advance) and interest charged on unpaid card balances (which can reach almost 25% in some states) add to the effective purchase price of the shares you buy. See “Plan of Distribution and Selling Securityholders.”  The cost of using a credit card may also increase if you do not make the minimum monthly card payments and incur late fees. Using a credit card is a relatively new form of payment for securities and will subject you to other risks inherent in this form of payment, including that, if you fail to make credit card payments (e.g., minimum monthly payments), you risk damaging your credit score, and payment by credit card may be more susceptible to abuse than other forms of payment. Moreover, where a third-party payment processor is used, your recovery options in the case of disputes may be limited. The increased costs due to transaction fees and interest may reduce the return on your investment.

 

The Commission’s Office of Investor Education and Advocacy issued an Investor Alert dated February 14, 2018 entitled: Credit Cards and Investments – A Risky Combination, which explains these and other risks you may want to consider before using a credit card to pay for your investment.

  

We are and may continue to be significantly impacted by the worldwide economic downturn due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, or COVID-19, was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. COVID-19 has spread to many countries, including the United States, and was declared to be a pandemic by the World Health Organization. Efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19 have intensified and the U.S., Europe, and Asia have implemented severe travel restrictions and social distancing. The impacts of the outbreak are unknown and rapidly evolving. A widespread health crisis has adversely affected and could continue to affect the global economy, resulting in an economic downturn that could negatively impact the value of the Company’s shares and investor demand for shares generally.

 

The continued spread of COVID-19 has also led to severe disruption and volatility in the global capital markets, which could increase our cost of capital and adversely affect our ability to access the capital markets in the future. It is possible that the continued spread of COVID-19 could cause a further economic slowdown or recession or cause other unpredictable events, each of which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, or financial condition.

 

The extent to which COVID-19 affects our financial results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the COVID-19 outbreak and the actions to contain the outbreak or treat its impact, among others. Moreover, the COVID-19 outbreak has had and may continue to have indeterminable adverse effects on general commercial activity and the world economy, and our business and results of operations could be adversely affected to the extent that COVID-19 or any other pandemic harms the global economy generally.

 

Specifically, COVID -19 may impact the production and distribution of Future Pearl Labs. If we are unable to produce our products due to manufacturing strains, we may not be able to distribute our product quickly and scale our business. This impact would mean we’d need to raise additional capital in order to meet our revenue targets.

Risks Related to the Securities in this Offering

 

There is no current market for any shares of the Company's stock.

 

There is no formal marketplace for the resale of the Preferred stock or any of the Company’s Common Stock. Shares of Common Stock may be traded on the over-the-counter market to the extent any demand exists. Investors should assume that they may not be able to liquidate their investment for some time or be able to pledge their shares as collateral. The company has no plans to list any of its shares on any OTC or similar exchange.

 

We are offering Bonus Shares to some investors in this offering, which effectively gives them a discount on their investment.

 

Certain investors in this offering who invest equal to or greater than $1,500, $5,000, $10,000, or $20,000, are entitled to receive Bonus Shares as a specific percentage of the amount of their investment. The Bonus Shares effectively give such investors in this offering a discount on their investment. Therefore, the value of shares of investors who invest less than $1,500 and pay the full price for the Common Stock in this offering, will be immediately diluted by investments made by investors entitled to receive the Bonus Shares, who will effectively pay a lower price per share. We have not set a minimum offering amount for this offering.

 

We have not set a minimum offering amount for this offering.

 

We have not set a minimum offering amount for this offering and funds received will not be deposited into a third-party escrow account prior to their release to the company. This means that we will accept and have access to funds as they are received, but we may never raise enough to execute the business plan or even cover the costs of the offering.

 

Investors in the company’s Common Stock have assigned their voting rights.

 

In order to subscribe to this offering, each investor will be required to grant an irrevocable proxy, giving the right to vote its shares of Common Stock to the company’s President, James Jordan. This irrevocable proxy will limit investors’ ability to vote their shares of Common Stock until the events specified in the proxy, which include the company’s IPO or acquisition by another entity, which may never happen.

 

Your rights as a holder of Common Stock may be limited by the number of shares held by Future VC, LLC

 

The Company is currently controlled by one entity, Future VC, LLC, which controls approximately 66.15% of the voting power of our capital stock (if no other people exercised their rights to acquire those securities). Even if we raise the maximum amount in this offering, Future VC will control 40.16% of our outstanding voting stock (excluding any issued Bonus Shares). The Class F Stock is entitled to certain protective provisions, as described in herein under “Securities Being Offered” and the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation. Any vote in regard to the approval or disapproval of those items listed under the protective provisions would be either controlled by or substantially influenced by Future VC, LLC, potentially against the interests of the rest of the Common Stockholders, which have ceded their voting rights to the Company’s CEO.

 

You will need to keep records of your investment for tax purposes.

 

As with all investments in securities, if you sell our Common Stock at a profit or loss, you will probably need to pay tax on the long- or short-term capital gains that you realize or apply the loss to other taxable income. If you do not have a regular brokerage account or your regular broker will not hold our Common Stock for you (and many brokers refuse to hold securities issued under Regulation A) there will be nobody keeping records for you for tax purposes. You will have to keep your own records and calculate the gain or loss on any sales of the Common Stock.

 

Our Subscription Agreement for this Offering, as well as our Bylaws, as amended, include forum selection provision, which could result in less favorable outcomes to the plaintiff(s) in any action against the Company.

 

Our subscription agreement for this offering, as well as our Bylaws, as amended, include forum selection provisions that requires any claims against the Company by subscribers or stockholders not arising under the federal securities laws to be brought in designated judicial forums. The bylaws provide that certain actions regarding the governance of the company be brought in the Court of Chancery State in the state of Delaware, and the subscription agreement provides that any actions arising based on the subscription agreement be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in the state of Delaware. This forum selection provision may limit investors’ ability to bring claims in judicial forums that they find favorable to such disputes and may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims.

Dilution

 

Dilution means a reduction in value, control, or earnings of the shares the investor owns.

 

Immediate dilution

 

An early-stage company typically sells its shares (or grants options over its shares) to its founders and early employees at a very low cash cost, because they are, in effect, putting their “sweat equity” into the Company. When the Company seeks cash investments from outside investors, like you, the new investors typically pay a much larger sum for their shares than the founders or earlier investors, which means that the cash value of your stake is diluted because each share of the same type is worth the same amount, and you paid more for your shares than earlier investors did for theirs.

 

The following table compares the price that new investors are paying for their shares with the effective cash price paid by existing shareholders, giving effect to full conversion of all outstanding stock options, and assuming that the shares are sold at $2.39 per share. The schedule presents shares and pricing as issued and reflects all transactions since inception, which gives investors a better picture of what they will pay for their investment compared to the Company’s insiders than just including such transactions for the last 12 months, which is what the SEC requires.

The following table demonstrates the dilution that new investors will experience upon investment in the Company. This table uses the Company’s audited net tangible book value as of December 31, 2020 of ($944,144) which is derived from the consolidated net tangible equity of the Company less intangible assets in the December 31, 2020 audited financial statements. Investors should note, these tables do not reflect capital raised or shares issued in 2021. This tangible net book value is then adjusted to contemplate conversion of all other convertible instruments outstanding at current that would provide proceeds to the Company. The offering costs assumed in the following table includes up to $40,000 in commissions to Dalmore Group, as well as legal and accounting fees incurred for this Offering. The table presents three scenarios for the convenience of the reader: a $100,000 raise from this offering, a $2,000,000 raise from this offering, and a fully subscribed $4,000,000 raise from this offering (maximum offering).

Future Dilution

 

Another important way of looking at dilution is the dilution that happens due to future actions by the company. The investor’s stake in a company could be diluted due to the company issuing additional shares, whether as part of a capital-raising event, or issued as compensation to the company’s employees or marketing partners. In other words, when the company issues more shares, the percentage of the company that you own will go down, even though the value of the company may go up. You will own a smaller piece of a larger company. This increase in number of shares outstanding could result from a stock offering (such as an initial public offering, another crowdfunding round, a venture capital round, angel investment), employees exercising stock options, or by conversion of certain instruments (e.g. convertible bonds, preferred shares or warrants) into stock.

 

If the company decides to issue more shares, an investor could experience value dilution, with each share being worth less than before, and control dilution, with the total percentage an investor owns being less than before. There may also be earnings dilution, with a reduction in the amount earned per share (though this typically occurs only if the company offers dividends, and most development stage companies do not pay dividends for some time).

 

 C: 

12 

 

 

The type of dilution that hurts early-stage investors most occurs when the company sells more shares in a “down round,” meaning at a lower valuation than in earlier offerings. An example of how this might occur is as follows (numbers are for illustrative purposes only):

 

  In June 2014, Jane invests $20,000 for shares that represent 2% of a company valued at $1 million.

 

  In December, the company is doing very well and sells $5 million in shares to venture capitalists on a valuation (before the new investment) of $10 million. Jane now owns only 1.3% of the company, but her stake is worth $200,000.

 

  In June 2015, the company has run into serious problems, and in order to stay afloat, it raises $1 million at a valuation of only $2 million (the “down round”). Jane now owns only 0.89% of the company, and her stake is worth only $26,660.

 

If you are making an investment expecting to own a certain percentage of the company or expecting each share to hold a certain amount of value, it’s important to realize how the value of those shares can decrease by actions taken by the company. Dilution can make drastic changes to the value of each share, ownership percentage, voting control, and earnings per share. In some cases, dilution can also completely wipe out the value of investments made by early investors, without any person being at fault.

 

Investors should understand how dilution works and the availability of anti-dilution protection.

  

Use of Proceeds To The Issuer

 

Assuming a maximum raise of $4,000,000, the net proceeds of this offering would be approximately $3,927,400 after subtracting estimated offering costs of $40,000 to Dalmore Group in commissions, and $38,000 in audit, legal, and filings fees. If Bobacino successfully raises the maximum amount under this raise, the Company intends to hire additional personnel in engineering and sales, spend additional on marketing to bring in more leads and customers, in addition to being able to fund a minimum viable product which can be used to begin production.

 

Assuming a raise of $2,000,000, representing 50% of the maximum offering amount, the net proceeds would be approximately $1,947,400 after subtracting estimated offering costs of $20,000 to Dalmore Group in commissions and $38,000 in audit, legal, and filings fees. In such an event, Bobacino would hire fewer personnel in engineering and/or sales and decrease incremental spend on marketing but still be able to fund production of its minimum viable product.

 

Assuming a raise of $100,000, representing 2.5% of the maximum offering amount, net proceeds would be approximately $66,400 after subtracting estimated offering costs of $1,000 to Dalmore Group in commissions and $38,000 in audit, legal, and filings fees.

 

The Company does not intend to use any proceeds from this offering to pay back any outstanding promissory notes. The Company does not intend to use any proceeds from this offering to compensate or otherwise make payments to officers or directors of the issuer or any of its subsidiaries.

Because the offering is a “best efforts,” we may close the offering without sufficient funds for all the intended purposes set out above, or even to cover the costs of this offering. Should the Company raise more than $2,000,000 in gross proceeds from the offering, it intends to use a portion of the proceeds to pay back Wavemaker Labs for all or a portion of the amount owed under its Master Services Agreement, under which the total amount outstanding as of June 30, 2021 was $1,233,293. The liability to Wavemaker Labs was incurred for services relating to development of the prototype and general support of the Company.

 

The Company reserves the right to change the above use of proceeds if management believes it is in the best interests of the Company.

 

Our Business

 

Company History

 

Bobacino was incorporated on March 6, 2020 when the team saw the growing trend of boba that was quickly gaining popularity around the world. With a wealth of experience in automation and kitchen technology, the team sees an increasing demand for high quality products and quick, safe, convenient service in the fast food and beverage industry. By combining robotic automation with boba culture we believe we can capture meaningful value and capitalize on a rapidly growing market. Traditional boba shops are burdened by high labor and real estate costs, and oftentimes sacrifice quality for quick and easy service. Bobacino aims to provide the highest quality of ingredients while delivering a fast, easy experience for consumers.

 

The CEO, Darian Ahler, previously served as co-founder and Head of Operations at Truebird, which developed a fully automated micro-café that served high-quality espresso to consumers. Before his time at Truebird, he spent many years working in the industrial food processing industry as a mechanical engineer. Darian has deep experience at the intersection of food and automation, with over a dozen years as an engineer, leader, and innovator in the emerging food technology space. His knowledge in this realm is key for understanding the risks and challenges that will need to be overcome for this company to be successful.

 

Chief Boba Officer and Strategic Advisor, Stacey Kwong, co-founded Milk+T and brings extensive industry knowledge. Milk+T started in Los Angeles in 2015 and has since grown to 3 locations, including Las Vegas and Portland, OR. Stacey provides product development support as Bobacino works to build a fully functioning boba bar that will support the needs of boba shops, as well as advises on strategic business, operational and cultural items.

 

Bobacino’s development is amplified through Future VC, LLC (a Wavemaker Partners company), and Future Labs VII, Inc. (dba Wavemaker Labs). Future VC, LLC serves as a lead investor in the Company, while Wavemaker Labs provides access to a team of roboticists and business creatives for Bobacino, reducing costs when compared to other robotics related startups. The team at Wavemaker Labs notably launched an AI-driven robotic kitchen assistant at Miso Robotics. Wavemaker Partners and Wavemaker Labs bring insights related to food technology and robotic R&D, as well as a team of strategic and technical experts to engineer the Bobacino machine. The advantages of being a Wavemaker company are outlined further below.

 

As of December 31, 2019, two related party customers accounted for 100% of the Company’s accounts receivable. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company reported no revenue and no accounts receivable.

Product Overview

 

Bobacino has built a preliminary prototype of a fully-automated, fast and easily accessible boba machine that offers an assortment of flavors and options for consumers at the press of a button. The main attraction within the machine is a 6 axis robotic arm which steals the show by orchestrating the whole process. Once ordered by a customer, the arm grabs an empty cup and fills it with boba pearls (tapioca), ice, tea, milk, and sweetener; then it seals the cup and hands it off to the consumer. All of this takes place within 1 minute. As a part of our ongoing product development efforts, Bobacino has conducted field research with existing boba shops to ensure we understand market demands and customer expectations and are using what we’ve learned to design a better prototype. Feedback from our research has highlighted the importance of two key features of Bobacino:

 

Fully-Automated - Existing fast food and quick-service restaurants operate under an environment where labor incurs a high operating cost. Bobacino brings a start-to-finish automated boba experience that decreases labor costs, which are very high in traditional brick and mortar restaurants.

 

Accessible - Since the Bobacino machine is fully automated, it will be able to operate on a 24/7 basis. The current prototype requires a small amount of real estate to operate, allowing the company to decrease the real-estate costs required when compared to traditional brick-and-mortar boba tea restaurants.

 

The Company has entered a Master Services Agreement (MSA) with Wavemaker Labs to mitigate risks and costs that can typically be associated with building robotics companies. Top engineering talent and complex hardware and equipment can be expensive for a young company with a small team. By entering into this agreement with Wavemaker Labs, Bobacino is able to build and test its prototype at below market costs.

Market

 

Boba tea (Also known as Bubble Tea) is a Taiwanese drink that originated in Taipei in the late 1980s. Bubble tea drew upon the already established practice of tea drinking in various parts of East Asia and adapted it to create a cooling drink for the summertime. Since its creation in the 1980s, Bubble Tea has grown in popularity and popular chains have set up locations across various Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities across East Asia, Southeast Asia, Europe, and North America. In fact, McDonald’s Germany added bubble tea to their menu back in 2012.

 

With this growth in popularity, the global market for bubble tea has followed suit and is expected to continue this growth trajectory in the future. The worldwide bubble tea market was estimated at $1.9 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow to over to $4.3 billion by 2028, according to a report by Verified Market Research dated October 2021.

 

While markets like North America and Europe are “up-and-coming” in terms of overall demand, Asia continues to dominate. Grab, the Singaporean ride-hailing and food delivery service giant, recently conducted a study on the growing obsession over the drink in the Southeast Asian region. The report, titled “Bubble Tea Craze on GrabFood!” stated that bubble tea orders on the platform had increased 3000% over the course of 2018, and as a result, GrabFood now has close to 4,000 bubble tea outlets in its network, a 200% increase in outlets for the region. Grab also found that, on average, Southeast Asians drink 4 cups of boba per month.

 

In the United States, bubble tea has not been short of a “craze” either. Interest in bubble tea has been growing consistently in terms of Google searches, which can be found on Google Trends. Additionally, the number of venues listed as “bubble tea shop” on location-discovery app and technology platform Foursquare has more than tripled in the last four years, growing from 884 in September 2015 to 2,980 in September 2019, according to data provided by Foursquare, as reported on Eater in an article dated November 5, 2019. Despite this growing trend, boba shops remain heavily concentrated on the coasts.

 

Manufacturing

 

The strategy for manufacturing will evolve with production volumes, leveraging contract manufacturers to meet initial and medium-term demand while Bobacino builds and fine tunes its internal production lines to service long-term demand. In the near term, all Bobacino products will be produced internally and locally in order to maintain control over quality and cost, and most importantly, to ensure there is a direct source of feedback for ongoing product improvement.

 

Initial pre-production volumes, roughly on the order of 10-50 units, will be produced in small batches internally and through local manufacturers for certain parts. This will allow Bobacino to rapidly address any issues that may arise and help ensure a smooth ramp-up for the contract manufacturer. Once released for production, demand will be met by a combination of the output from the contract manufacturers along with our own internal production lines, the majority from the contract manufacturer at first. This will allow Bobacino to focus on automation and quality programs without restricting production volumes. As production begins to scale, Bobacino plans to use other manufacturing opportunities for faster production at lower costs.

 

Sales & Marketing

 

We believe our automated boba tea machine will resonate with existing boba tea brands and direct consumers because of its fast, easy, and accessible features. We plan to hold a dual revenue stream approach by both offering white-labeled partnerships for existing boba tea restaurants and Bobacino branded machines for a direct-to-consumer model. Because Boba tea is quickly becoming popular globally, we also look to expand towards markets and franchises overseas.

For these reasons, our sales and marketing efforts are reliant upon two approaches.

 

  (1) Bobacino must establish real estate locations for our Bobacino-owned units. A partnership with a nationwide operation such as co-working spaces, theme parks, or convenience stores would accelerate this side of the business model.

 

  (2) Bobacino must identify existing boba tea brands, large and small, to capture as customers to white label the Bobacino machines. These chains would benefit from growing their market reach without the significant costs and risks associated with opening new brick and mortar restaurants.

 

Competition

 

Within the global bubble tea market, market dominance is concentrated amongst a few key incumbent players, like Cha Time, Gong Cha, and CoCo Fresh Tea & Juice, that were initially established in Taiwan and have since commercialized across various regions. In addition, there are a few homegrown disruptors in the bubble tea space, like Boba Guys and Kung Fu Tea, that were established in the US and are now challenging incumbents with modern versions of traditional recipes and unique product offerings. Out of the incumbent bubble tea chains, CoCo Fresh Tea & Juice, which was founded in Tamsui, Taiwan in 1997, is the oldest and most established with ChaTime and Gong Cha following after. Below is a snapshot of the global presence of the largest active bubble tea chains:

In addition to the traditional bubble tea vendors, we have two competitors within the robotics space that are tackling the automation of bubble tea preparation. However, these companies are based outside of the US and therefore are not direct competitors of Bobacino as yet in terms of the markets we are focusing on. Below is a snapshot of the aforementioned companies:

 

  · KouBei - In March 2019, Taiwanese bubble-tea chain, Happy Lemon, teamed up with Koubei, Alibaba Group’s local-services app, to upgrade its in-store technology, including a new drink-making robot At its pilot store in Shanghai, customers have the option of buying their drinks at a counter manned by employees, or opt for a fully automated experience through robot preparation. The robot prepares and mixes boba tea for customers. It can make 8 different types of drinks with about 40 variations based on customer preferences – each takes 90 seconds. Launched in 2017, there are now ~100 brands that have partnered with Koubei to upgrade their Brick & Mortar locations with in-store technology (online ordering) and autonomous robots. Happy Lemon; however, is the only boba brand they have partnered with.

 

  · Taiwan Intelligence Robotics Company (TIRC) - TIRC’s Bubble Tea Shaker Robot (BTSR) was originally unveiled at the Taipei Food Show in 2018. In December 2018, BTSR was recognized at the International Innovation Awards (IIA) in Macau. The robot is capable of putting sugar and chewy tapioca pearls into a cup and shaking it vigorously – each glass of boba takes 30-45 seconds to make The machine can shake up to 100 cups per hour. However, the entire process is not automated – the robot still needs people to prepare the tea and tapioca pearls. The Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA) has been marketing TIRC’s boba robot at trade shows in hopes of using the technology at scale to export boba milk tea globally. As of now, the BTSR is only being used domestically within Taiwan.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis on Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included in this Offering Circular. Our financial statements consolidate the operations of the Company and its predecessor, Future Labs I. The Company was organized on March 6, 2020, and all operations discussed for the year ended December 31, 2019 were undertaken by Future Labs I.

 

The interim financial statements included in this filing as of June 30, 2021 and 2020 are unaudited, and may not include year-end adjustments necessary to make those financial statements comparable to audited results, although in the opinion of management all adjustments necessary to make interim statements of operations not misleading have been included.

 

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.

Operating Results

 

Through June 30, 2021, the Company has not recorded any revenues to date. 

 

Operating expenses for the 6 months ended June 30, 2020 were $179,027, representing primarily research & development activities in order to build our preliminary prototype. This is reflected in an accrued liability to Wavemaker Labs for services rendered under the Company’s Master Services Agreement with Wavemaker Labs, which included research & development activities to build the preliminary prototype and general support activities focused on raising capital for the Company.

 

In the six months ended June 30, 2021, operating expenses were $35,734. This reflects a reduction in expenses related to product development activities as work on our preliminary prototype was completed in November of 2020. Expenses for the 6 months ended June 30, 2021 reflect ongoing research & development activities in preparation for the next product development phase to begin in Q3 of 2021.

 

Since the end of the period covered by our audited financial statements, we expect similar monthly expenses aside from an increase in labor costs from additional full time and part time employees. The team will continue to grow as we push development of our product into production ready capabilities.

 

Operating Results – Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2020

 

The Company has not recorded any revenues to date.  Operating expenses in 2019 for Future Labs I were $30,641. These expenses related primarily to marketing and business development activities. Expenses for the Company (Future Pearl Labs) for the 12 months ended December 31, 2020 were $1,150,162, representing primarily research & development activities in order to build our preliminary prototype. This includes $967,020 in accrued liability to Wavemaker Labs for services rendered under the Company’s Master Services Agreement with Wavemaker Labs, which included research & development activities to build the preliminary prototype and general support activities focused on raising capital for the Company. Once we begin manufacturing and selling our product, we expect to derive revenues from selling our boba tea vending machines for an up-front fee, plus a recurring SaaS (Software as a Service) fee.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $231,505 in cash and cash equivalents.

 

Through December 31, 2020, the Company had received $100,000 in funding from Embark Ventures. The Company launched its Regulation A+ offering on June 4, 2021 and for the period covered by this report received gross proceeds of approximately $295,000. At close of offering on October 29, 2021, the Company received a total of $1,286,461 in investments, an additional $991,461 post June 30, 2021. From March to June 2020, Future Labs I, which became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Future Pearl Labs, provided a loan to a related party, Wavemaker Labs. This loan was made due to the Company having cash on hand for which it determined it was in its interests to make a loan to Wavemaker Labs to allow for the accrual of interest and to book the loan towards accounts payable owed to Wavemaker Labs.

 

 C:

Included in the liabilities of the Company is an accounts payable entry for $967,020 due to Wavemaker Labs pursuant to the Master Services Agreement. During the year ended December 31, 2020, Wavemaker Labs provided services relating to development of the prototype and general support of the Company, which was invoiced to the Company for each hour of labor exerted and all materials expenses in relation to the development of the Bobacino machine. Invoices from Wavemaker Labs are due within fifteen (15) days of receipt, and any past due invoices are assessed a rate of 2% per month, which is added to the amount due and prorated starting from the date of the original invoice. The total amount outstanding under this agreement as June 30, 2021 was $1,233,293 While we intend to repay all or a portion of this amount from proceeds of the offering, should we raise more than $2,000,000, the Company has received assurances that Wavemaker Labs will not take action related to any amount due in default and will instead allow any outstanding liability to continue accruing at the aforementioned rate of 2% per month. This MSA supersedes all prior SOW agreements between Bobacino and Wavemaker Labs. As such, convertible promissory notes have been canceled and were reissued as warrants in 2021. Any previously committed payment associated with such notes is no longer owed.

 

Trend Information

 

For the first 6 months of 2021, the Company began ramping up its marketing and fundraising efforts in preparation for the June 4, 2021 launch of its Regulation A+ equity crowdfunding offering on StartEngine. These marketing and fundraising efforts were in part financed by Wavemaker Labs as part of our Master Services Agreement. The Company had limited cash resources of its own during this time, and our reliance on Wavemaker Labs has pushed back our next product development phase into Q1 of 2022, resulting in anticipated production and delivery of its first batch of working pods in early 2022. Prior to that date, we anticipate we will need to incur increased expenses associated with engineering, research and development, marketing and fundraising. During our Regulation A+ equity crowdfunding offering in 2021, we have received $1,286,461 from investors. Although many businesses are financially impacted by COVID-19, we believe our product will see an increase in demand due to the touchless nature of the product. However, the effects of COVID-19 are rapidly growing and remain uncertain for the foreseeable future.

 

Plan of Operations

 

We have not yet generated any revenues, and we currently have a small team of part-time employees and consultants that have helped us build a preliminary prototype. The previous fundraising round covered all costs to date for initial prototype build, company creation and business development efforts including field research.

 

If we raise the maximum amount set out in our “Use of Proceeds,” we will begin hiring more engineers to help us complete a commercially viable prototype and a minimal viable product; based on our projections, we estimate that within 6 months, we will be able to start production on several units. Raising the maximum offering will allow us to hasten development of additional features of our boba tea vending machines, which could result in additional revenue from potential customers, as well as speed up production and deployment of additional units in under 12 months. Raising 50% of the maximum offering will allow us to incorporate what we’ve learned from discussions with boba shops to build a better prototype that addresses both boba shop and customer needs.

 

If we raise the maximum amount of funds, we do not anticipate having to raise additional capital for the business. However, raising less than 50% of the maximum amount would likely result in us having to raise additional funds within 12 to 16 months.

Amounts are as of December 1, 2021. The final column (Percent of Class) includes a calculation of the amount the person owns now, plus the amount that person is entitled to acquire. That amount is then shown as a percentage of the outstanding amount of securities in that class if no other people exercised their rights to acquire those securities. The result is a calculation of the maximum amount that person could ever own based on their current and acquirable ownership, which is why the amounts in this column will not add up to 100%.

Protective Provisions

 

As long as any shares of Class F Stock shall be issued and outstanding, the company shall not, without first obtaining the approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class F Stock, (i) amend, alter or repeal any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws of the company if such action would adversely alter the rights, preferences, privileges or powers of, or restrictions provided for the benefit of, the Class F Stock; (ii) increase or decrease the authorized number of shares of Class F Stock or Common Stock; (iii) liquidate, dissolve or wind-up the business and affairs of the company, effect any merger or consolidation or any other Liquidation Event; or (iv) create, or authorize the creation of, or issue or obligate itself to issue shares of, any additional class or series of capital stock.

Conversion Rights

 

Conversion into Common Stock. Each share of Class F Stock is convertible at any time after the date of issuance of such share into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Common Stock. Each share of Class F Stock shall automatically be converted into one fully paid and nonassessable share of Common Stock immediately upon the date specified by written consent or agreement of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Class F Stock. Any transfer of a share of Class F Stock, with certain exceptions, shall be deemed an election by the holder thereof to convert such share into Common Stock and each such transferred share of Class F Stock shall automatically convert into one share of Common Stock, effective immediately prior to such transfer.

 

Conversion into Preferred Stock. Upon each equity financing in which the company sells and issues shares of Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of at least $1,000,000, ten percent (10%) of the shares of Class F Stock held by each holder of Class F Stock will automatically convert into shares of the series of Preferred Stock that is issued in such equity financing at the then applicable Conversion Ratio. "Conversion Ratio" means, for each such equity financing, the inverse of the ratio at which a share of Preferred Stock issued in such equity financing is convertible into Common Stock of the Corporation. In addition, any share of Class F Stock that is sold by the holder thereof in connection with such an equity financing shall, subject to restrictions on the transfer of such share under the bylaws or applicable agreements, automatically convert into shares of the Preferred Stock sold in such equity financing at the applicable Conversion Ratio, effective immediately upon the purchase of such share of Class F Stock by an investor in connection with such equity financing.

 

Additional Provisions applicable to Common Stock and Class F Stock

 

If the company in any manner subdivides (whether by stock split, subdivision, dividend, distribution or otherwise) or combines (whether by reverse split or otherwise) the outstanding shares of Common Stock or Class F Stock, then the outstanding shares of the other class of stock shall be subdivided or combined in the same manner.

 

In the event that the company shall enter into any consolidation, merger, combination or other transaction or series of related transactions in which shares of Common Stock or Class F Stock are exchanged for or converted into other stock or securities, or the right to receive cash or any other property, then, and in such event, the shares of Class F Stock and Common Stock shall be entitled to be exchanged for or converted into the same kind and amount of stock, securities, cash or any other property, as the case may be, into which or for which each share of the other class of stock is exchanged or converted.

 

Blank Check Preferred Stock

 

Preferred Stock may be divided into such number of series as our Board of Directors may determine. The Board of Directors is authorized to determine and alter the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions granted to or imposed upon any wholly unissued series of Preferred Stock, and to fix the numbers of shares of any series of Preferred Stock and the designation of any such series of Preferred Stock. The Board of Directors, within the limits and restrictions stated in any resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors originally fixing the number of shares constituting any series, may increase or decrease (but not below the number of shares of such series then outstanding) the number of shares of such series subsequent to the issue of shares of that series.

 

Provisions of Note in Our Bylaws

 

Under Article VII of our Bylaws, the sole and exclusive judicial forum for the following actions will be the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware:

 

(1) Any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation;

 

(2) Any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of the Corporation to the Corporation or the Corporation’s stockholders;

 

 C: 

26 

 

 

(3) Any action asserting a claim against the Corporation arising pursuant to any provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law or the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws;

 

(4) Any action to interpret, apply, enforce or determine the validity of the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws; or

 

(5) Any action asserting a claim against the Corporation governed by the internal affairs doctrine.

 

Although we believe the provision benefits us by providing increased consistency in the application of Delaware law in the types of lawsuits to which it applies and in limiting our litigation costs, the forum selection provision may limit investors’ ability to bring claims in judicial forums that they find favorable to such disputes and may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims. The company has adopted the provision to limit the time and expense incurred by its management to challenge any such claims. As a company with a small management team, this provision allows its officers to not lose a significant amount of time travelling to any particular forum so they may continue to focus on operations of the company. This provision does not apply to actions arising under the Securities Act. Further, it does not apply to actions arising under the Exchange Act as Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. As a result, the exclusive forum provision will not apply to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Investors will not be deemed to have waived the company’s compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

Provisions of Note in Our Subscription Agreement

 

Forum Selection Provision

 

The subscription agreement that investors will execute in connection with the offering includes a forum selection provision that requires any claims against the Company based on the subscription agreement to be brought in a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction within the State of Delaware, for the purpose of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or based upon the agreement. To the extent it is enforceable, the forum selection provision may limit investors’ ability to bring claims in judicial forums that they find favorable to such disputes and may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims. The Company has adopted the provision to limit the time and expense incurred by its management to challenge any such claims. As a company with a small management team, this provision allows its officers to not lose a significant amount of time travelling to any particular forum so they may continue to focus on operations of the company.

 

Proxy

 

The subscription agreement grants an irrevocable proxy to the company’s President, James Jordan, to (i) vote all securities held of record by the investor, (ii) give and receive notices and communications, (iii) execute any written consent, instrument or document that the President determines is necessary or appropriate at the President’s complete discretion, and (iv) take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the President for the accomplishment of the foregoing. The proxy will survive the death, incompetency and disability of an individual investor and, if an investor is an entity, will survive the merger or reorganization of the investor or any other entity holding the shares of Common Stock. The proxy will also be binding upon the heirs, estate, executors, personal representatives, successors and assigns of an investor (including any transferee of the investor). Any transferee of the investors party to the subscription agreement must agree to be bound by the terms of the proxy. The proxy will terminate upon the closing of a firm-commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the offer and sale of Common Stock or the effectiveness of a registration statement under the Exchange Act covering the Common Stock.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

 

Opinion

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Future Pearl Labs, Inc. and subsidiary (the “Company”) which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholder’s equity/(deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its consolidated operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

 

Substantial Doubt About the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has not generated profits since inception, has sustained a net loss of $1,150,708 for the year ended December 31, 2020 and has incurred negative cash flows from operations. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $1,438,296, has current liabilities exceeding current assets by $922,144, and limited liquid assets with $18,980 of cash. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

 

Responsibilities of Management for the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are available to be issued.

 

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements, including omissions, are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the consolidated financial statements.

 

In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, we:

 

  · Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

 

  · Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

 

  · Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

 

  · Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

 

  · Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

 

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control related matters that we identified during the audit.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Future Pearl Labs, Inc (the “Company”), doing business as Bobacino, is a Company organized March 6, 2020 under the laws of Delaware. The Company was formed to create automatic vending machines for bubble tea. The Company is headquartered in Santa Monica, California.

 

In October 2020, Future VC, LLC contributed common shares in Future Labs I, Inc. in exchange for shares of Class F Stock of the Company. Both Future VC, LLC and Future Labs I, Inc. (“Future Labs”) are related parties of the Company. Furthermore, the remaining shareholders contributed common shares in Future Labs I, Inc. in exchange for shares of Class F stock of the Company pro-rata based on their ownership in Future Labs I, Inc. Due to these stock exchanges, Future Labs I, Inc. became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (see Notes 3 and 7).

 

The Company’s activities since inception have consisted primarily of formation activities and preparations to raise capital. Once the Company commences its planned principal operations, it will incur significant additional expenses. The Company is dependent upon additional capital resources for the commencement of its planned principal operations and is subject to significant risks and uncertainties; including failing to secure funding to operationalize the Company’s planned operations or failing to profitably operate the business.

 

2. GOING CONCERN

 

The Company has evaluated whether there are certain conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued.

 

The accompanying consolidated 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 not generated profits since inception, has sustained a net loss of $1,150,708 for the year ended December 31, 2020 and has incurred negative cash flows from operations. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $1,438,296, current liabilities exceeding current assets by $922,144 and limited liquid assets with $18,980 of cash. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, which it has not been able to accomplish to date, and/or to obtain additional capital financing. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities.

 

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The Company’s fiscal year is December 31.

 

As a result of the share exchanges noted above, Future Labs became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company in October 2020. Future Labs is a Delaware Company formed on November 30, 2017. Due to common ownership and management of the Company and Future Labs, the share exchange was determined to be a common control transaction. As such, the consolidated financial statements are presented retroactively and reflect the historical results of Future Labs since its inception.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Future Labs I, Inc. All material inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Stock Split

 

On February 26, 2021, the Company effected a 12-for-1 forward stock split of its authorized, designated, issued and outstanding shares, including common stock, Class F stock and preferred stock. Accordingly, all share and per share amounts of the Company for all periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been adjusted retroactively, where applicable, to reflect this stock split.

FUTURE PEARL LABS, INC. 

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, the valuations of common stock and stock options. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known trends and other market-specific or other relevant factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates when there are changes in circumstances, facts and experience. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company generally maintains balances in various operating accounts at financial institutions that management believes to be of high credit quality, in amounts that may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses related to its cash and cash equivalents and does not believe that it is subject to unusual credit risk beyond the normal credit risk associated with commercial banking relationships. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, all of the Company's cash and cash equivalents were held at one accredited financial institution.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Certain assets and liabilities of the Company are carried at fair value under GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy, of which the first two are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable:

 

  · Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

  · Level 2—Observable inputs (other than Level 1 quoted prices), such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

  · Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity that are significant to determining the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.

 

The carrying values of the Company’s assets and liabilities approximate their fair values.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable are derived from products and services delivered to customers and are stated at their net realizable value. Each month, the Company reviews its receivables on a customer-by-customer basis and evaluates whether an allowance for doubtful accounts is necessary based on any known or perceived collection issues. Any balances that are eventually deemed uncollectible are written off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded bad debt expense of $21,513 to write off receivables deemed uncollectible.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market and accounted for using the specific identification cost method.

Revenue Recognition

 

ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers.

 

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements: 1) identify the contract with a customer; 2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; 3) determine the transaction price; 4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and 5) recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied. To date, the Company derives its revenue from hardware.

 

Collaboration Agreements

 

Per ASC Topic 808-10-15-5, a collaborative arrangement within the scope of this ASC Topic 606 may be partially within the scope of other Topics, including, but not limited to, Topic 606 on revenue from contracts with customers. A collaborative arrangement is partially within the scope of Topic 606 if a unit of account, identified as a promised good or service (or bundle of goods or services) that is distinct within the collaborative arrangement is with a customer. An entity shall apply the guidance in Topic 606 to a unit of account that is within the scope of that Topic, including the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure requirements. If a portion of a distinct bundle of goods or services is not with a customer, the unit of account is not within the scope of Topic 606.

 

For a collaborative arrangement that is wholly or partially outside the scope of other Topics, including Topic 606, the unit of account, recognition, and measurement for the unit(s) of account outside the scope of other Topics, including Topic 606, shall be based on an analogy to authoritative accounting literature or, if there is no appropriate analogy, a reasonable, rational, and consistently applied accounting policy election.

 

Per ASC 808-10-45-1, participants in a collaborative arrangement shall report costs incurred and revenue generated from transactions with third parties (that is, parties that do not participate in the arrangement) in each entity’s respective income statement pursuant to the guidance on principal versus agent considerations.

 

Advertising and Promotion

 

Advertising and promotional costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Research and Development Costs

 

Costs incurred in the research and development of the Company’s products are expensed as incurred.

 

Concentrations

 

The Company is dependent on third-party vendors to supply inventory and products for research and development activities and parts for building products. In particular, the Company relies and expects to continue to rely on a small number of vendors. The loss of one of these vendors may have a negative short-term impact on the Company’s operations; however, the Company believes there are acceptable substitute vendors that can be utilized longer-term.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, one related party customer accounted for 81% of the Company’s revenues. As of December 31, 2019, two related party customers accounted for 100% of the Company’s accounts receivable.

 

Deferred Offering Costs

 

The Company complies with the requirements of FASB ASC 340-10-S99-1 with regards to offering costs. Prior to the completion of an offering, offering costs are capitalized. The deferred offering costs are charged to additional paid-in capital or as a discount to debt, as applicable, upon the completion of an offering or to expense if the offering is not completed. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had capitalized deferred offering costs of $22,000.

Income Taxes

 

The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the temporary differences between the consolidated financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using tax rates expected to be in effect during the years in which the basis differences reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is unlikely that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. We assess our income tax positions and record tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon our evaluation of the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date. In accordance with ASC 740-10, for those tax positions where there is a greater than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, our policy will be to record the largest amount of tax benefit that is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. For those income tax positions where there is less than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, no tax benefit will be recognized in the consolidated financial statements.

 

Net Loss per Share

 

Net earnings or loss per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding shares subject to redemption or forfeiture. The Company presents basic and diluted net earnings or loss per share. Diluted net earnings or loss per share reflect the actual weighted average of common shares issued and outstanding during the period, adjusted for potentially dilutive securities outstanding. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of the diluted net loss per share if their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. As all potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share for each year. Potentially dilutive items outstanding as of December 31, 2020 included options to purchase 340,968 shares of common stock (see Note 8).

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This ASU requires a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability under most operating leases in its balance sheet. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has is currently evaluating the impact on its financial statements.

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2018-07”). ASU 2018-07 eliminates the separate accounting model for nonemployee share-based payment awards and generally requires companies to account for share-based payment transactions with nonemployees in the same way as share-based payment transactions with employees. The accounting remains different for attribution, which represents how the equity-based payment cost is recognized over the vesting period, and a contractual term election for valuing nonemployee equity share options. ASU 2018-07 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Company has adopted this standard effective January 1, 2019.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and has issued subsequent amendments to this guidance. This new standard will replace all current guidance on this topic and eliminate all industry-specific guidance. The new revenue recognition standard provides a unified model to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration for which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 31, 2018. The standard may be applied either retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company has adopted this standard effective January 1, 2019.

 

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As new accounting pronouncements are issued, the Company will adopt those that are applicable under the circumstances.

4. COLLABORATION AGREEMENT

 

In 2018, Future Labs entered into an agreement with a related party for the initial sale of its developed hardware. Per evaluation of ASC 606 and ASC 808, Future Labs determined that the arrangement is a collaboration rather than a contract with a customer. The related party does not obtain goods or services that are the output of Future Labs’ ordinary activities in exchange for consideration. Each party is an active participant and subject to both the risks and rewards contingent on the activity’s commercial success.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, Future Labs recorded a receivable from the related party for revenue and cost-sharing purposes. This type of consideration is not within the scope of any Topic, nor does any Topic apply by analogy; therefore, the Company should apply an accounting policy election to evaluate each part of the receivable based on the nature of the associated activity. The portion of the receivable related to Future Labs’ share of revenue would be treated as an increase to collaboration revenue, whereas the portion of the receivable reimbursing Future Labs would be a reduction of cost of revenue.

 

The Company’s collaboration revenue and its associated cost of revenue should be presented on a net basis because, under ASC 606, the Company is considered an agent in sales transactions with third parties. The Company can apply ASC 606 only by analogy because the related party is not a customer. Because ASC 606 is applied by analogy, net collaboration revenue must be presented separately from revenue from contracts with customers.

 

The following amounts were presented net based on the conclusion above:

 

    Year Ended  
    December 31,  
    2020     2019  
Revenues   $      -     $ 11,927  
Cost of revenues and operating expenses     -       (38,441 )
      -       (26,514 )

 

5. LOAN RECEIVABLE, RELATED PARTY

 

From March to June 2020, the Company provided a loan to a related party, Future Labs VII, Inc. for $32,700.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recognized interest income of $616, all of which was unpaid as of December 31, 2020.

 

6. LOAN PAYABLE, RELATED PARTY

 

The following is a summary of related party loan payables as of December 31, 2020 and 2019:

From February to May 2019, the Company received proceeds of $75,000 from Future VC, LLC. In 2020 and 2019, the Company repaid $22,181 and $28,070 of these loans, respectively. On January 1, 2021 the Company extended these notes’ maturity dates to July 1, 2021.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred interest expense of $1,162 and $1,116, respectively.

Liquidation

 

In the event of any liquidation event, whether voluntary or involuntary, the entire assets and funds of the Company legally available for distribution shall be distributed among the holders of the Class F Stock and the Common Stock pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by each (assuming conversion of all such Class F Stock into Common Stock).

 

Redemption

 

No class of stock shall have any redemption rights.

 

Conversion

 

Each share of Class F Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder, at any time after the date of issuance of such share, into one share of Common Stock.

The Company has adopted the Future Pearl Labs, Inc. 2020 Stock Plan (“2020 Plan”), as amended and restated, which provides for the grant of shares of stock options and stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) and restricted common shares to employees, non-employee directors, and non-employee consultants. The number of shares authorized by the 2020 Plan was 340,968 shares as of December 31, 2020. The option exercise price generally may not be less than the underlying stock’s fair market value at the date of the grant and generally have a term of ten years. The amounts granted each calendar year to an employee or non-employee is limited depending on the type of award. Stock options comprise all of the awards granted since the 2020 Plan’s inception. As of December 31, 2020, there were no shares available for grant under the 2020 Plan. Stock options granted under the 2020 Plan typically vest over a four-year period, with a 1-year cliff.

10. INCOME TAXES

 

Deferred taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for consolidated financial statement and income tax purposes. The differences relate primarily to cash to accrual differences, stock-based compensation expense, and net operating loss carryforwards. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had net deferred tax assets before valuation allowance of $402,985 and $67,263, respectively.

FUTURE PEARL LABS, INC. 

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. The Company assessed the need for a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets and determined a full valuation allowance is required due to taxable losses for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, cumulative losses through December 31, 2020, and no history of generating taxable income. Therefore, valuation allowances of $402,985 and $67,263 were recorded as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Valuation allowance increased by $335,722 and $11,638 during the years ended 2020 and 2019, respectively. Deferred tax assets were calculated using the Company’s combined effective tax rate, which it estimated to be 28.1%. The effective rate is reduced to 0% for 2020 and 2019 due to the full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets.

 

The Company’s ability to utilize net operating loss carryforwards will depend on its ability to generate adequate future taxable income. At December 31, 2020, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future taxable income in the amount of $465,411.

 

The Company has evaluated its income tax positions and has determined that it does not have any uncertain tax positions. The Company will recognize interest and penalties related to any uncertain tax positions through its income tax expense.

 

The Company may in the future become subject to federal, state and local income taxation though it has not been since its inception, other than minimum state tax. The Company is not presently subject to any income tax audit in any taxing jurisdiction, though its tax years remain open to examination.

 

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

The Company may be subject to pending legal proceedings and regulatory actions in the ordinary course of business. The results of such proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, but the Company does not anticipate that the final outcome, if any, arising out of any such matters will have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations.

 

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

In February 2021, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation and effected a 12-for-1 forward stock split of its authorized, designated, issued and outstanding shares, including common stock, Class F stock and preferred stock. After effect of the 12-for-1 forward stock split, the Company is authorized to issue 24,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, 24,000,000 shares of Class F Stock and 48,000,000 shares of common stock. The Company also increased the total authorized shares under the 2020 Plan to 340,968 shares.

 

In February 2021, Embark Ventures, L.P. contributed 1,976,472 shares of the Company’s Class F Common Stock back to the Company for no consideration.

 

In March 2021, the Company increased the total authorized shares under the 2020 Plan to 355,668 shares.

 

The Company intends to conduct an offering of its common stock in 2021 under a Regulation A.

 

Management has evaluated subsequent events through April 28, 2021, the date the financial statements were available to be issued. Based on this evaluation, no additional material events were identified which require adjustment or disclosure in these financial statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Future Pearl Labs, Inc (the “Company”), doing business as Bobacino, is a Company organized March 6, 2020 under the laws of Delaware. The Company was formed to create automatic vending machines for bubble tea. The Company is headquartered in Santa Monica, California.

 

In October 2020, Future VC, LLC contributed common shares in Future Labs I, Inc. in exchange for shares of Class F Stock of the Company. Both Future VC, LLC and Future Labs I, Inc. (“Future Labs”) are related parties of the Company. Furthermore, the remaining shareholders contributed common shares in Future Labs I, Inc. in exchange for shares of Class F stock of the Company pro-rata based on their ownership in Future Labs I, Inc. Due to these stock exchanges, Future Labs I, Inc. became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (see Notes 3 and 7).

 

The Company’s activities since inception have consisted primarily of formation activities and preparations to raise capital. Once the Company commences its planned principal operations, it will incur significant additional expenses. The Company is dependent upon additional capital resources for the commencement of its planned principal operations and is subject to significant risks and uncertainties; including failing to secure funding to operationalize the Company’s planned operations or failing to profitably operate the business.

 

2. GOING CONCERN

 

The Company has evaluated whether there are certain conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued. The accompanying consolidated 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 not generated profits since inception. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $1,395,699 and current liabilities exceeding current assets by $1,001,928. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, which it has not been able to accomplish to date, and/or to obtain additional capital financing. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities.

 

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The Company’s fiscal year is December 31.

 

As a result of the share exchanges noted above, Future Labs became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company in October 2020. Future Labs is a Delaware Company formed on November 30, 2017. Due to common ownership and management of the Company and Future Labs, the share exchange was determined to be a common control transaction. As such, the consolidated financial statements are presented retroactively and reflect the historical results of Future Labs since its inception.

 

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

 

The accompanying financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 the related footnote disclosures are unaudited. The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and, in the Company's opinion, reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position as of June 30, 2021 and results of its operations, and cash flows for the periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. The results for the six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021 or for any other periods.

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Future Labs I, Inc. All material inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Stock Split

 

On February 26, 2021, the Company effected a 12-for-1 forward stock split of its authorized, designated, issued and outstanding shares, including common stock, Class F stock and preferred stock. Accordingly, all share and per share amounts of the Company for all periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been adjusted retroactively, where applicable, to reflect this stock split.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions reflected in these consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, the valuations of common stock and stock options. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known trends and other market-specific or other relevant factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates when there are changes in circumstances, facts and experience. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company generally maintains balances in various operating accounts at financial institutions that management believes to be of high credit quality, in amounts that may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses related to its cash and cash equivalents and does not believe that it is subject to unusual credit risk beyond the normal credit risk associated with commercial banking relationships. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, all of the Company's cash and cash equivalents were held at one accredited financial institution.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Certain assets and liabilities of the Company are carried at fair value under GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy, of which the first two are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable:

 

  · Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

  · Level 2—Observable inputs (other than Level 1 quoted prices), such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets or liabilities, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

  · Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity that are significant to determining the fair value of the assets or liabilities, including pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.

 

The carrying values of the Company’s assets and liabilities approximate their fair values.

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable are derived from products and services delivered to customers and are stated at their net realizable value. Each month, the Company reviews its receivables on a customer-by-customer basis and evaluates whether an allowance for doubtful accounts is necessary based on any known or perceived collection issues. Any balances that are eventually deemed uncollectible are written off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded bad debt expense of $21,513 to write off receivables deemed uncollectible.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers.

 

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements: 1) identify the contract with a customer; 2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; 3) determine the transaction price; 4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and 5) recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied. To date, the Company derives its revenue from hardware.

 

Collaboration Agreements

 

Per ASC Topic 808-10-15-5, a collaborative arrangement within the scope of this ASC Topic 606 may be partially within the scope of other Topics, including, but not limited to, Topic 606 on revenue from contracts with customers. A collaborative arrangement is partially within the scope of Topic 606 if a unit of account, identified as a promised good or service (or bundle of goods or services) that is distinct within the collaborative arrangement is with a customer. An entity shall apply the guidance in Topic 606 to a unit of account that is within the scope of that Topic, including the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure requirements. If a portion of a distinct bundle of goods or services is not with a customer, the unit of account is not within the scope of Topic 606.

 

For a collaborative arrangement that is wholly or partially outside the scope of other Topics, including Topic 606, the unit of account, recognition, and measurement for the unit(s) of account outside the scope of other Topics, including Topic 606, shall be based on an analogy to authoritative accounting literature or, if there is no appropriate analogy, a reasonable, rational, and consistently applied accounting policy election.

 

Per ASC 808-10-45-1, participants in a collaborative arrangement shall report costs incurred and revenue generated from transactions with third parties (that is, parties that do not participate in the arrangement) in each entity’s respective income statement pursuant to the guidance on principal versus agent considerations.

 

Advertising and Promotion

 

Advertising and promotional costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Research and Development Costs

 

Costs incurred in the research and development of the Company’s products are expensed as incurred.

 

Concentrations

 

The Company is dependent on third-party vendors to supply inventory and products for research and development activities and parts for building products. In particular, the Company relies and expects to continue to rely on a small number of vendors. The loss of one of these vendors may have a negative short-term impact on the Company’s operations; however, the Company believes there are acceptable substitute vendors that can be utilized longer-term.

Deferred Offering Costs

 

The Company complies with the requirements of FASB ASC 340-10-S99-1 with regards to offering costs. Prior to the completion of an offering, offering costs are capitalized. The deferred offering costs are charged to additional paid-in capital or as a discount to debt, as applicable, upon the completion of an offering or to expense if the offering is not completed. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had capitalized deferred offering costs of $22,000, which were charged to additional paid-in capital in 2021 upon the Company’s equity offering (see Note 6). Furthermore, the Company incurred an additional $299,884 in offering costs in 2021, which were charged to additional paid in capital in June 2021 upon the Company’s Regulation A offering.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the temporary differences between the consolidated financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using tax rates expected to be in effect during the years in which the basis differences reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is unlikely that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. We assess our income tax positions and record tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon our evaluation of the facts, circumstances and information available at the reporting date. In accordance with ASC 740-10, for those tax positions where there is a greater than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, our policy will be to record the largest amount of tax benefit that is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. For those income tax positions where there is less than 50% likelihood that a tax benefit will be sustained, no tax benefit will be recognized in the consolidated financial statements.

 

Net Income/(Loss) per Share

 

Net earnings or loss per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding shares subject to redemption or forfeiture. The Company presents basic and diluted net earnings or loss per share. Diluted net earnings or loss per share reflect the actual weighted average of common shares issued and outstanding during the period, adjusted for potentially dilutive securities outstanding. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of the diluted net loss per share if their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

  

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This ASU requires a lessee to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability under most operating leases in its balance sheet. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has is currently evaluating the impact on its financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and has issued subsequent amendments to this guidance. This new standard will replace all current guidance on this topic and eliminate all industry-specific guidance. The new revenue recognition standard provides a unified model to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration for which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 31, 2018. The standard may be applied either retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company has adopted this standard effective January 1, 2019.

 

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As new accounting pronouncements are issued, the Company will adopt those that are applicable under the circumstances.
