Note 2. Acquisition of HLDCO LLC

 

On June 13, 2024 Claude Zdanow via Mount Olympus Ventures, Inc (“Mount Olympus”), purchased the 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock from Elijah May directly. As a result of the transaction there was a change in control of the Company. On June 13, 2024, Elijah May, as the Company’s sole director, resigned from his positions as director, Chief Executive Officer, and President of the Company, effective as of June 13, 2024. Claude Zdanow was appointed as a director of the Company by its Board of Directors, holding the position of Chief Executive Officer.

 

On June 17, 2024, the Company entered into the acquisition of 100% ownership of HLDCO, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Agreement”). The transaction was by and between the Company and the Members of HLDCO, LLC, which include Mount Olympus Ventures, Inc., Apollo Management Group, Inc., and M2B Funding Corp. Mount Olympus Ventures, Inc., via the owner Claude Zdanow, has a material relationship with the Company, via his appointment as a director and officer of the Company, and through Mount Olympus Ventures, Inc.’s acquisition of 100% of the Series A Preferred Stock of the Company.

 

The nature and amount of consideration given or received for the assets was  exactly 3,545 shares of newly designated Series B Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, exactly 6,570 shares of newly designated Series C Preferred Stock, par value, $0.001 per share, and exactly 100 shares of Series D Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 to be given to each of the Members of HLDCO, LLC as described in the Agreement.

 

On July 18, 2024, the Company filed the designations for the Series B, Series C, and Series D preferred shares pursuant the Agreement. On July 25, 2024, the Board of Directors issued those shares of respective preferred stock to the members of HLDCO, LLC, to complete the acquisition (the “Closing”).

 

Management determined that the acquisition of HLDCO was a reverse acquisition as defined within ASC 805, and that HLDCO was the accounting acquirer or legal acquiree. The Company determined that HLDCO was the accounting acquirer based on the guidance contained within ASC 805-40. The significant factors that led to the Company’s conclusion were (i) the Mr. Zdanow and the members of HLDCO obtained 98% of the voting interest of  the Company through the preferred shares held by these parties, (ii) at Closing, the remaining Company shareholders held 2% of the voting interest of the Company, (iii) the composition of executive management and the governing body changed such that the sole director and executive officer of HLDCO became the sole director and shareholder of the Company which provided control over the operations of the Company, and (iv) HLDCO was significantly larger than the Company when considering both total assets and operations. As a result, the Company has applied purchase accounting as of the Closing of the acquisition and reflected the historical financial position and operations of HLDCO as the surviving entity. The assets and liabilities the Company were recognized at fair value as of the Closing and the results of its operations have been included within the consolidated statements of operations from that date forward with all historical activity reflective of the operations of HLDCO.

 

The assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recognized provisionally in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The initial accounting for the business combination is not complete as the Company is in the process of obtaining additional information for the valuation of acquired intangible assets and deferred tax liabilities, if any. The provisional amounts are subject to change to the extent that additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. Under U.S. GAAP, the measurement period shall not exceed one year from the acquisition date and the Company will finalize these amounts no later than July 25, 2025. The estimated fair values as of the acquisition date are based on information that existed as of the acquisition date. During the measurement period the Company may adjust provisional amounts recorded for assets acquired and liabilities assumed to reflect new information that the Company has subsequently obtained regarding facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date.
