COVID 19

 

The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve as of the date of this report. Management is actively monitoring the global situation on its financial condition, liquidity operations, suppliers, industry, and workforce. Given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 outbreak and the global responses to curb its spread, the Company is not able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on its results of operations, financial condition or liquidity for the fiscal year 2023. However, to date there has not been a decrease in sales. The Company believes that in this time of uncertainty, individuals are buying collectible coins as a safe haven. The Company is unable to predict if such buying will continue during this time of uncertainty or if the buying will decrease as events change and evolve.

LITIGATION

 

On August 21, 2020, Boustead Securities, LLC (“Boustead”) filed suit against Sunstock, Inc. (“Sunstock”) in the County of Orange, California. Boustead is an investment banking firm engaged by Sunstock on September 19, 2019 to raise equity. Boustead maintained that Sunstock owes it 87,179 shares of Preferred Stock Warrants and 9,231 shares of Common Stock Warrants. Boustead also sought general damages, interest, and costs of the suit. Sunstock believed that Boustead had not fulfilled its obligations in raising equity and vigorously contested the suit. Sunstock hired an arbitrator but there was no resolution between Sunstock and Boustead. The matter went to trial in September 2021 and on November 2, 2021 the Court determined that Sunstock owed Boustead $260,308 for warrants issued that Sunstock did not honor. $260,308 was accrued and is shown in operating expenses in the consolidated statement of operations. The warrants are no longer outstanding (see Note 12). All other monetary claims by Boustead were dismissed by the Court. The $260,308 is to be paid in cash. The Company filed an appeal of the judgment on December 9, 2021. There has been no change as of the date of this report.

 

In December 2020, a former employee of Sunstock filed a claim with the California Labor Commission regarding claimed back pay owed. A preliminary hearing was held on January 4, 2021 and the Company is currently awaiting the next step.

 

INDEMNITIES AND GUARANTEES

 

The Company has made certain indemnities and guarantees, under which it may be required to make payments to a guaranteed or indemnified party, in relation to certain actions or transactions. The Company indemnifies its directors, officers, employees and agents, as permitted under the laws of the State of Delaware. In connection with its facility leases, the Company has agreed to indemnify its lessors for certain claims arising from the use of the facilities. The duration of the guarantees and indemnities varies, and is generally tied to the life of the agreement. These guarantees and indemnities do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. Historically, the Company has not been obligated nor incurred any payments for these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities and guarantees in the accompanying balance sheets.
