NetBrands Corp.
Notes To Unaudited Financial Statements for the Periods
Ended March 31, 2025 and 2024
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Business
NetBrands
Corp., formerly known as Global Diversified Marketing Group Inc. (“NetBrands” or the “Company”), was incorporated
as Dense Forest Acquisition Corporation, in
On November 26, 2018, the Company effected the acquisition of Global Diversified Holdings, Inc. (“GDHI”), a private New York company owned by the Company’s president, with the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of GDHI. GDHI became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and its activity for the years 2022 and 2021 is reflected in these financial statements along with the expenses of the Company.
Prior to the acquisition of GDHI, the Company had no business and no operations. Pursuant to the acquisition, the Company acquired the operations and business plan of GDHI, which imports and sells snack food products. For accounting purposes, GDHI is considered to be the acquirer, and the equity is presented as if the business combination had occurred on January 1, 2017.
On
August 31, 2022, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with InPlay Capital Inc., a Delaware corporation (“InPlay”),
pursuant to which, on the same date, the Company purchased from InPlay all of the assets used in the operation and conduct of its business
relating to the online home fitness store known as “The Hula Fit”, including the Shopify Store and the TikTok, Facebook and
Google ad accounts, for a purchase price of $
On March 29, 2023, the Company filed an Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation effecting the change of the Company’s name to NetBrands Corp., a name that reflects the planned expansion of the Company’s digital business. On July 31, 2023, the Company’s common stock began trading on the OTC Pink marketplace under its new name, NetBrands Corp., and its new trading symbol “NBND.”
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the presentation in the current year. The Company has adopted a December 31 year-end.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Global Diversified Holdings, Inc. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable from customers, accounts payable, and loans payable. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these consolidated financial statements.
F-6 |
Management’s Representation of Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been or omitted as allowed by such rules and regulations, and management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements include all of the adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary to a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements at and as of December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on April 24, 2025.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of liabilities and 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. The most significant estimates relate to revenue recognition, inventories, valuation of financial instruments, income taxes, and contingencies. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known or expected trends and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable given the quality of information available as of the date of these consolidated financial statements. The results of these assumptions provide the basis for making estimates about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation using the fair value method following the guidance outlined in Section 718-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosure about Stock-Based Compensation. This Section requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award- the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). No compensation cost is recognized for equity instruments for which employees do not render the requisite service. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31,2024 stock-based compensation was $- - and $ , respectively.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. On March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 the Company had $-- and $-- of cash and cash equivalents, respectively.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts
receivable are generated from sales of snack food products to retail outlets throughout the United States. The Company performs ongoing
credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based on customer payment and current creditworthiness, as determined by
review of their current credit information. The Company continuously monitors credit limits for its customers and maintains a provision
for estimated credit losses based on its historical experience and any specific customer issues that have been identified. An allowance
for doubtful accounts are provided against accounts receivable for amounts management believes may be uncollectible. The Company historically
has not had issues collecting on its accounts receivable from its customers. The Company factors certain of its receivables to improve
its cash flow. Bad debt expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024 was $-
Inventory
Inventory, which is comprised of snack food products and packaging supplies is charged to inventory when purchased, is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost determined under the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. The Company does not carry any raw materials.
The Company evaluates inventory levels quarterly value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. Any inventory that has a cost basis in excess of its expected net realizable value, inventory that becomes obsolete, inventory in excess of expected sales requirements, inventory that fails to meet commercial sale specifications or is otherwise impaired are written down with a corresponding charge to the statement of operations in the period that the impairment is first identified. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 the Company had $-- and $-- inventory respectively.
F-7 |
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets. Maintenance, repairs, and renewals that do not materially add to the value of the equipment nor appreciably prolong its useful life are charged to expense as incurred.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from product sales when control of the promised goods are transferred to our clients in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. To achieve this core principle, the Company applies the following five steps: identify the contract with the client, identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract and recognize revenues when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation. Typically, the Company receives a detailed purchase order from large retailers that specify the goods ordered, their price, payment terms and the required delivery date. Once the delivery of items on the purchase order is made to the client and title passes, the Company has met its performance obligation and recognizes revenue.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate the carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets have either an identifiable or indefinite useful life. Intangible assets with identifiable useful lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their economic or legal life, whichever is shorter.
The Company performs an annual impairment assessment for intangible assets during the fourth quarter of each year and more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of the asset may be less than the carrying amount.
Determining the fair value of intangible assets is judgmental in nature and requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.
The Company’s income tax returns are open for examination for up to the past three years under the statute of limitations. There are no tax returns currently under examination.
F-8 |
Leases
The majority of our lease obligations are real estate operating leases from which the Company conducts its business. For any lease with an initial term in excess of 12 months, the related lease assets and liabilities are recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as either operating or finance leases at the inception of an agreement where it is determined that a lease exists. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less, or that are on a month-to-month basis are not recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Operating lease assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and operating lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. These assets and liabilities are recognized based on the present value of future payments over the lease term at commencement date. The Company uses a collateralized incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date, including lease term, in determining the present value of future payments. Our lease terms generally do not include options to extend or terminate the lease unless it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. Fixed payments may contain predetermined fixed rent escalations. The Company recognizes the related rent expense on a straight-line basis from the commencement date to the end of the lease term.

Basic income (loss) per share has been calculated based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. As of March 31, 2025, the Company had no dilutive instruments that could increase the number of shares if exercised or converted.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The information set forth in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, among others (I) increase in our revenue and profitability, (ii) prospective business opportunities and (iii) our strategy for financing our business. Forward-looking statements are statements other than historical information or statements of current condition. Some forward-looking statements may be identified by use of terms such as “believes”, “anticipates”, “intends” or “expects”. These forward-looking statements relate to our plans, liquidity, ability to complete financing, to enter into future agreements with companies, and plans to successfully expand our business operations and the sale of our products. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs.
Although we believe that our expectations with respect to the forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions within the bounds of our knowledge of our business and operations, in light of the risks and uncertainties inherent in all future projections, the inclusion of forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that our objectives or plans will be achieved. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report. Except to the extent required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, or other information contained herein, whether as a result of new information, future events, a change in events, conditions, circumstances or assumptions underlying such statements, or otherwise. We caution you therefore that you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements as statements of historical fact or as guarantees or assurances of future performance.
Basis of Presentation
The following discussion highlights our results of operations and the principal factors that have affected our financial condition as well as our liquidity and capital resources for the periods described and provides information that management believes is relevant for an assessment and understanding of the statements of financial condition and results of operations presented herein. The following discussion and analysis are based on our unaudited financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report, which we have prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. You should read the discussion and analysis together with such financial statements and the related notes thereto.
The audited financial statements for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, contained in our Annual Report, include a summary of our significant accounting policies and should be read in conjunction with the discussion below. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments necessary to present fairly the results of operations for such periods have been included in these audited financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
References in this section to “NetBrands,” “we,” “us,” “our,” “the Company” and “our Company” refer to NetBrands Corp. and its consolidated subsidiary, Global Diversified Holdings, Inc.
Overview
We are an early stage diversified holdings company which sells multiple products under common management with one of them a global multi-line consumer packaged goods (“CPG”) company with branded product lines in the food and snack industry. This division operates as marketer and distributor in the United States, Canada, and Europe. Another division is focused and involved in building and acquiring ecommerce assets as well as private businesses in various verticals with the goal of scaling them up and increasing revenue.
The Company was incorporated on December 1, 2017, as a Delaware corporation under the name “Dense Forest Acquisition Corporation.” On June 13, 2018, in anticipation of its acquisition of Global Diversified Holdings, Inc. (“GDHI”), a private New York snack and gourmet food company, the Company changed its to “Global Diversified Marketing Group Inc.” Prior to consummation of this acquisition, the Company had no business and no operations. On November 26, 2018, the Company acquired the operations and business plan of GDHI, to develop and market healthy snack foods, and it became our wholly owned operating subsidiary.
4 |
On March 29, 2023, the Company filed an Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation effecting the change of the Company’s name to NetBrands Corp., a name that reflected the planned expansion of the Company’s digital business.
We operate through diversified subsidiaries with merger and acquisition interest in acquiring ecommerce assets as well as private businesses in various verticals which may include health, wellness, beauty sectors as well as digital app and asset space which could include web 3.0 applications. As a result of numerous events described throughout this Report, we have not generated any revenue since December 31, 2023. We are currently undergoing internal transformation and we seek to enhance shareholder value by acquiring income producing businesses and assets as our operating subsidiaries.
Going forward, we intend to seek, investigate and, if such investigation warrants, engage in a business combination with a private entity whose business presents an opportunity for our shareholders. We will not restrict our potential candidate target companies to any specific business, industry or geographical location and, thus, may acquire any type of business. Further, we may acquire or combine with a venture that is in its preliminary or early stages of development, one that is already in operation, or one that is in a more mature stage of its corporate existence. Accordingly, business opportunities may be available in many different industries and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities difficult and complex. The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by or under the supervision of our executive officers and directors, none of whom is a business analyst. Therefore, it is anticipated that outside consultants or advisors may be utilized to assist us in the search for and analysis of qualified target companies.

Sales for the three months ended March 31, 2025, were $-0- compared to sales of $-0- for the three months ended March 31, 2024 . We have not generated any sales since the year ended December 31, 2023.
During 2024 we incurred a significant loss of revenue due to the supply, shipping and logistic issues, transitioning from a public warehouse to our own warehousing facility, and the significant loss of revenue on a product with eight SKUs that was produced in Russia that is no longer available to us. Without having an adequate amount of inventory on hand to fulfill existing and future orders, and our lack of sufficient liquidity, our ability to conduct future business with our customers is materially impaired. We are currently seeking new lines of business, new sources of liquidity and an acquisition target. If we are unsuccessful in our efforts to raise capital it will have a material adverse impact on our Company on our ability to remain a going concern.
Operating expenses
Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were $6,191 compared to $211,042 during the same three months ended March 31, 2024. The material decrease in expenses is attributable to limited expenses is due to the lack of revenue in the 2025 period.
Other income and (expense)
Other income (expense) is comprised solely of interest expense and a loss on the extinguishment of debt related to our fundings. Other expense was $96,854 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $228,516 in other expense during the three months ended March 31, 2024.
Net loss
As a result of the foregoing, we recorded a net loss of $103,045 or $(0.00) per share for the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to a loss of $439,559 or $(0.03) per share for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2025, we had $-0- in cash, compared to $-0- in cash as of December 31, 2024.
Net cash used in operating activities decreased to $-0- in the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $143,469 in the three months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease in cash used in operating is primarily due to changes in balance sheet accounts and reduced activities at the Company.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $-0- during the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $184,446 of net cash provided by financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2024. The decrease in net cash provided in the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024, is primarily due to lower proceeds from notes and loans payable.
The Company has historically financed its operations through the cash flow generated from operations, capital investment, notes payable and factoring.
In the event continuing lack of sales, our ability to obtain additional financing could be negatively impacted which could have a material adverse impact on our liquidity or our ability to remain as a going concern.
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business for the twelve-month period following the date of these financial statements. On a consolidated basis, we have incurred significant operating losses since inception. The Company’s independent auditor has indicated substantial doubt about the Company continuing as a going concern based on the Company’s accumulated deficit and accrued liabilities. Our ability to continue our operations as a going concern, realize the carrying value of our assets, and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business is dependent upon our ability to raise capital sufficient to fund our commitments and ongoing losses, and ultimately generate profitable operations. If we cannot obtain needed funds, we may be forced to reduce or cease our activities with a consequent loss to investors. In addition, should we incur significant presently unforeseen expenses or delays, we may not be able to accomplish our goals. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We continually evaluate the accounting policies and estimates used to prepare our financial statements. The estimates are based on historical experience and assumptions believed to be reasonable under current facts and circumstances. Actual amounts and results could differ from these estimates made by management. Certain accounting policies that require significant management estimates and are deemed critical to our results of our operations or financial position. Our critical accounting estimates are more fully discussed in Note 2 to our unaudited financial statements contained herein.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
Not applicable because we are an emerging growth company.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial and accounting officer), who is directly involved in the day-to-day operations of the Company, as of March 31, 2025, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2025 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act were recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Act Commission’s rules and forms and that our disclosure controls are effectively designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management, including our President and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdown can occur because of simple error or mistake. In particular, many of our current processes rely upon manual reviews and processes to ensure that neither human error nor system weakness has resulted in erroneous reporting of financial data.
As of March 31, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were determined to be effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the period covered by this Quarterly Report, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
