NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Reverse Merger and Corporate Restructure
On May 4, 2022, Cruzani, Inc. (“Cruzani” or the “Predecessor”) entered into a merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) with Bowmo, Inc. (“Bowmo” or the “Company”) and Bowmo Merger Sub, Inc. to acquire Bowmo. (the “Acquisition”). The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement were consummated on May 4, 2022 and, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, all outstanding shares of Bowmo were exchanged for shares of Cruzani’s common stock and Bowmo became Cruzani’s wholly owned subsidiary.
The Merger was effected pursuant to the Merger Agreement. The Merger is being accounted for as a reverse merger whereby: Bowmo is considered the acquiring company for accounting purposes as upon completion of the Merger, Bowmo’s former stockholders held a majority of the voting interest of the combined company.
Pursuant to the Merger, the Company issued Series
G Preferred Stock holding the voting rights to
Upon completion of the acquisition, bowmo is treated as the surviving entity and accounting acquirer although Cruzani was the legal acquirer. Accordingly, the historical financial statements are those of Bowmo.
Organization and Business
Bowmo, Inc. (FKA Cruzani, Inc.) (the “Company”) is an AI-powered recruiting platform. The Company’s principal lines of business are direct placement of candidates with employers and Recruiting as a Service which allows the Company’s customers to outsource the management of their recruiting process to the Company.
The Company offers recruiting software and services through an online AI-driven platform to connect potential candidates to employers for all businesses looking to address hiring needs.
The Company was incorporated as a Delaware corporation in 2016.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial statements which omit certain disclosures. These unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2022 included on the Company’s Form 10-K. The results of the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2023.
On October 10, 2023, the Company effected a reverse
split of its authorized and issued and outstanding common stock, par value $
In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 30, 2023 and the results of operations and cash flows presented herein have been included in the financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for the full year.

Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. All financial information has been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
We maintain our cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed federally insured limits. We continually monitor our banking relationships and consequently have not experienced any losses in our accounts. We believe we are not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.
Fair value of financial instruments
The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:
| Level 1: | Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. |
| Level 2: | Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. |
| Level 3: | Pricing inputs that are generally unobservable inputs and not corroborated by market data. |
The carrying amount of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses and accrued expenses approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. The Company’s notes payable approximates the fair value of such instruments based upon management’s best estimate of interest rates that would be available to the Company for similar financial arrangements at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Convertible Instruments
The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in its convertible instruments in accordance with various accounting standards.
ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities From Equity” provides that instruments convertible predominantly at a fixed rate resulting in a fixed monetary amount due upon conversion with a variable quantity of shares (“stock settled debt”) be recorded as a liability at the fixed monetary amount.
8
ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” generally provides three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur, and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. Professional standards also provide an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional as defined under professional standards as “The Meaning of Conventional Convertible Debt Instrument.”
The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has determined that the instrument is not a stock settled debt and the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with professional standards when “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features,” as those professional standards pertain to “Certain Convertible Instruments.” Accordingly, the Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Discounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their earliest date of redemption. The Company also records when necessary deemed dividends for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in preferred shares based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the share transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the preferred shares.
ASC 815-40 provides that generally if an event is not within the entity’s control and could require net cash settlement, then the contract shall be classified as an asset or a liability.
Convertible Notes with Fixed Rate Conversion Options
The Company may enter into convertible notes, some of which contain, predominantly, fixed rate conversion features, whereby the outstanding principal and accrued interest may be converted by the holder, into common shares at a fixed discount to the market price of the common stock at the time of conversion. This results in a fair value of the convertible note being equal to a fixed monetary amount. The Company records the convertible note liability as stock settled debt in accordance with ASC 480 - “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” and measures the convertible note at its fixed monetary amount, which is the result of the share price discount at the time of conversion, and records the put premium, as applicable, on the note date with a charge to interest expense.
Derivative Instruments
The Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of derivatives with the sale of convertible notes in 2022. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company records the derivatives at their fair values as of the inception date of the debt agreements and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. The carrying value assigned to the host instrument will be the difference between the previous carrying value of the host instrument and the fair value of the derivatives. There is an offsetting debt discount or premium as a result of the fair value assigned to the derivatives, as well as any debt issuance costs, which are amortized under the straight-line method over the term of the loan. Any change in fair value is recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense at each balance sheet date. If the fair value of the derivatives was higher at the subsequent balance sheet date, the Company recorded a non-operating, non-cash charge. If the fair value of the derivatives was lower at the subsequent balance sheet date, the Company recorded non-operating, non-cash income.
Business Combinations
The Company accounts for its business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration transferred are recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized over the expected life of the asset. Any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.
Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net assets and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Acquisition-related expenses are recognized separately from business combinations and are expensed as incurred. The Company remeasures fair value as of each reporting date and changes resulting from events after the acquisition date, are recognized as follows: 1) if the contingent consideration is classified as equity, the contingent consideration is not re-measured and its subsequent settlement is accounted for within equity, or 2) if the contingent consideration is classified as a liability, the changes in fair value and accretion costs are recognized in earnings.
9
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”). Revenues are recognized when control is transferred to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods. Revenue recognition is evaluated through the following five steps: (1) identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer; (2) identification of the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determination of the transaction price; (4) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognition of revenue when or as a performance obligation is satisfied.
The Company generates revenue from the following activities:
Recruiting as a Service (“RaaS”):
RaaS allows the Company’s customers to outsource the management of their recruiting process allowing the Company to use the Application to assist its customers hiring needs by strategically gearing the service to reach the customer’s objectives. Revenue from RaaS consists of monthly billing to the customer for services provided.
RaaS service contracts with customers are month-to-month for a fixed price. Revenues are recognized on a gross basis when each monthly subscription service is completed.
Direct Placement:
The Company generates direct placement revenue by earning one-time fees for each time an employer hires one of the candidates that the Company refers. The Company sources qualified candidate referrals for the employers’ available jobs through the use of the Company’s Application. Upon the employer hiring one or more of the Company’s candidate referrals, the Company earns the direct placement fee, which consists of an amount agreed upon between the Company and its customers. The fee is a percentage of the referred candidates’ first year’s base salary.
Direct placement revenues are recognized on a gross basis on the date of hire of the candidate placed with an employer, as it is more than probable that a significant revenue reversal will not occur. This fee is only charged to the employer. Any payments received prior to the hire date are recorded as deferred revenue on the consolidated balance sheets. Payments for recruitment services are typically due within 30 days of completion of services.
Direct placement revenue is subject to a

Stock-based compensation
We account for our stock-based compensation under ASC 718 “Compensation - Stock Compensation” using the fair value-based method. Under this method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the shorter of the service period or the vesting period of the stock-based compensation. This guidance establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges it equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. The Company estimates the fair value of each stock option at the grant date by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Determining the fair value of stock-based compensation at the grant date under this model requires judgment, including estimating volatility, employee stock option exercise behaviors and forfeiture rates. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based compensation represent the Company’s best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management judgment.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
Change in accounting principle
Commencing in the second quarter of 2022, the
Company prospectively changed its accounting treatment for securities that contain predominantly fixed rate conversion features by recording
the derivative feature as a put premium on stock settled debt. See Note 7 for further discussion. The Company believes this change in

NOTE 7 – PUT PREMIUM ON STOCK SETTLED DEBT
When the Company enters into convertible notes, some of which contain, predominantly, fixed rate conversion features (See Note 5 for conversion terms), whereby the outstanding principal and accrued interest may be converted by the holder, into common shares at a fixed discount to the market price of the common stock at the time of conversion. This results in a fair value of the convertible note being equal to a fixed monetary amount. The Company records the convertible note liability at its fixed monetary amount by measuring and recording a put premium on the consolidated balance sheets, as applicable, on the note date with a charge to interest expense. The put premiums are expensed on issuance of the debt with the liability released to additional paid in capital on conversion of the principal.
All put premiums are recorded as a liability as put premium on stock settled debt on the consolidated balance sheets with a charge to interest expense.

NOTE 8 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES
The embedded conversion options of certain of the Company’s convertible debentures summarized in Note 5 contain variable conversion features that qualify for embedded derivative classification under ASC 815-15 Embedded Derivatives (See Note 5 for conversion terms). The fair value of these liabilities is re-measured at the end of every reporting period and the change in fair value is reported in the statement of operations as a gain or loss on derivative financial instruments.

The Company uses Level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology for its conversion option liabilities as their fair values were determined by using Black-Scholes options pricing model. The option-pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are share price, expected volatility and the expected option term (the time from the issuance date until the maturity date). The Company has historically not paid dividends and has no foreseeable plans to issue dividends. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield from governmental zero-coupon bonds with an equivalent term. As, required, these are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company uses Level 3 inputs for its valuation
methodology for its conversion option liabilities as their fair values were determined by using the Binomial option pricing model based
on various assumptions. The model incorporates the price of a share of the Company’s common stock (as quoted on the Over the Counter
Bulletin Board), volatility, risk free rate, dividend rate and estimated life. Significant changes in any of these inputs in isolation
would result in a significant change in the fair value measurement. As, required, these are classified based on the lowest level of input

NOTE 13 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Contingency arising from indebtedness owed to Oasis Capital, LLC
A contingency arises when there is a situation for which the outcome is uncertain, and which should be resolved in the future, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles require recognition of only those losses that are probable and for which a loss amount can be reasonably estimated.
The following details the nature of the contingency
with Oasis Capital LLC (“Oasis”). In the normal course of its business, Oasis files notices to convert (“conversion
notices”) a portion of its outstanding ownership of the Company’s indebtedness into shares of common stock. As a customary
procedure for the annual audit for the period ended December 31, 2020 of Cruzani, Cruzani’s auditors confirmed its outstanding balance
of the indebtedness and related accrued interest. During the year ended December 31, 2021, Oasis submitted conversions which stated that
the outstanding indebtedness was far greater than that which was on the Company’s books. The total amount of the increased indebtedness
was approximately $
Since the Company believes that the loss is not probable and no litigation has been pursued at this time, there has been no recognition of this liability on the books and records of the Company.
COVID-19 pandemic contingencies
The spread of the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States has resulted in economic uncertainties which may negatively impact the Company’s business operations. While the disruption is expected to be temporary, there is uncertainty surrounding the duration and extent of the impact. The impact of the coronavirus outbreak on the consolidated financial statements cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
Adverse events such as health-related concerns about working in our offices, the inability to travel and other matters affecting the general work environment could harm our business and our business strategy. While we do not anticipate any material impact to our business operations as a result of the coronavirus, in the event of a major disruption caused by the outbreak of pandemic diseases such as coronavirus, we may lose the services of our employees or experience system interruptions, which could lead to diminishment of our business operations. Any of the foregoing could harm our business and delay the implementation of our business strategy and we cannot anticipate all the ways in which the current global health crisis and financial market conditions could adversely impact our business.
Management is actively monitoring the global situation on its financial condition, liquidity, operations, industry, and workforce.
Legal
During the normal course of business, the Company may be exposed to litigation. When the Company becomes aware of potential litigation, it evaluates the merits of the case in accordance with FASB ASC 450-20-50, Contingencies. The Company evaluates its exposure to the matter, possible legal or settlement strategies and the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome. If the Company determines that an unfavorable outcome is probable and can be reasonably estimated, it establishes the necessary accruals. A contingency arises when there is a situation for which the outcome is uncertain, and which should be resolved in the future, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles require recognition of only those losses that are probable and for which a loss amount can be reasonably estimated.

Forward Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. For this purpose, any statements contained in this Report that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking information includes statements relating to future actions, prospective products, future performance or results of current or anticipated products, sales and marketing efforts, costs and expenses, interest rates, outcome of contingencies, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, business strategies, cost savings, objectives of management, and other matters.

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking information to encourage companies to provide prospective information about themselves without fear of litigation so long as that information is identified as forward-looking and is accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the information.
These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that we cannot predict. In evaluating these forward-looking statements, you should consider various factors, including the following: (a) those risks and uncertainties related to general economic conditions, (b) whether we are able to manage our planned growth efficiently and operate profitable operations, (c) whether we are able to generate sufficient revenues or obtain financing to sustain and grow our operations, (d) whether we are able to successfully fulfill our primary requirements for cash, which are explained below under “Liquidity and Capital Resources”.

On December 16 2022, bowmo, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “APA”) with Interview Mastery Corporation (“Interview Mastery”), a Delaware corporation, by and through Michael R. Neece (“Neece”) and Caseridus, Inc. Under the terms of the APA, the Company will pay the purchase price through the issuance of 2,000,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in two tranches: (i) 1,000,000,000 shares of Company common stock to the stockholders of Interview Mastery that vest immediately for all of the business assets of Interview Mastery, valued at $200,000 based on the acquisition date share price of $0.0002; and (ii) 1,000,000,000 shares of Company common stock issued in consideration of Neece’s employment with the Company which shall vest over a four (4) year period during which 250,000,000 shares will vest on the first-year anniversary of Neece’s employment, followed by vesting in increments of 62,500,000 shares per quarter (3-month period) thereafter until the full amount is vested and all of which shall be contingent upon Neece’s continual employment with the Company. As of December 31, 2022, the 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock for the acquisition of Interview Mastery have not been issued, and as such, has been recorded as a liability in accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheets. In connection with the APA, the Company shall create a new board seat and offer such seat to Neece who will be formally invited to join the Company’s Board of Directors.
The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with the acquisition method under the guidance in ASC 805-10 and 805-20. This business combination was accounted for as a related party acquisition, as Neece is the chief product officer of the Company Accordingly, the total purchase consideration was allocated to net acquired based on their respective historical costs. The assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, if any, in a business purchase combination be recognized at their historical costs as of the acquisition date.
The final allocation of the purchase price in connection with the Interview Mastery acquisition was calculated as follows:

Going Concern
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles which contemplate continuation of the Company on a going-concern basis. The going concern basis assumes that assets are realized, and liabilities are extinguished in the ordinary course of business at amounts disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. The Company has incurred recurring losses from operations and has an accumulated deficit of $12.25 million. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern depends upon its ability to obtain adequate funding to support its operations through continuing investments of debt and/or equity by qualified investors/creditors, internally generated working capital and monetization of intellectual property assets. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Management is currently pursuing a business strategy which includes raising the necessary funds to finance the Company’s development and marketing efforts.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Note 1 to the Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Financial Statements. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, contingencies and taxes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The following critical accounting policies are impacted significantly by judgments, assumptions, and estimates used in the preparation of the Financial Statements.
We are subject to various loss contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. We consider the likelihood of loss or impairment of an asset or the incurrence of a liability, as well as our ability to reasonably estimate the amount of loss in determining loss contingencies. An estimated loss contingency is accrued when management concludes that it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. We regularly evaluate current information available to us to determine whether such accruals should be adjusted.
We recognize deferred tax assets (future tax benefits) and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the book carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the expected future tax return consequences of those differences, which are expected to be either deductible or taxable when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Future tax benefits have been fully offset by a 100% valuation allowance as management is unable to determine that it is more likely than not that this deferred tax asset will be realized.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources and would be considered material to investors.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to be effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, they concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2023.

The following aspects of the Company were noted as potential material weaknesses:
| 1. | We do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act which is applicable to us for the period ended September 30, 2023. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and procedures on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness. |
| 2. | We do not have sufficient resources in our accounting function, which restricts the Company’s ability to gather, analyze and properly review information related to financial reporting in a timely manner. As a result, as of the date of filing, we have not completed our ASC 606 implementation process and, thus, cannot disclose the quantitative impact of adoption on our financial statements. In addition, due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness. |
| 3. | We have inadequate controls to ensure that information necessary to properly record transactions is adequately communicated on a timely basis from non-financial personnel to those responsible for financial reporting. Management evaluated the impact of the lack of timely communication between non–financial personnel and financial personnel on our assessment of our reporting controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency represented a material weakness. |
| 4. | Certain control procedures were unable to be verified due to performance not being sufficiently documented. As an example, some procedures requiring review of certain reports could not be verified due to there being no written documentation of such review. Management evaluated the impact of its failure to maintain proper documentation of the review process on its assessment of its reporting controls and procedures and has concluded deficiencies represented a material weakness. |
In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance of achieving the desired objectives. Also, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.
Changes in Internal Controls
Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that no change occurred in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2023, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
