INTEGRATED VENTURES, INC. [INTV] Filings

The Company maintains cash balances in non-interest-bearing accounts that at times may exceed federally insured limits. For the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents at December 31, 2023.

Digital currencies consist mainly of Bitcoin, generally received for the Company’s own account as compensation for cryptocurrency mining services, and other digital currencies purchased for short-term investment and trading purposes. Given that there is limited precedent regarding the classification and measurement of cryptocurrencies under current Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), the Company has determined to account for these digital currencies as indefinite-lived intangible assets in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") No. 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, for the period covered by this report and in future reports unless and until further guidance is issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). An intangible asset with an indefinite useful life is not amortized but assessed for impairment annually, or more frequently, when events or changes in circumstances occur indicating that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived asset is impaired. Impairment exists when the carrying amount exceeds its fair value. In testing for impairment, the Company has the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not than an impairment exists. If it is determined that it is more likely than not that an impairment exists, a quantitative impairment test is not necessary. If the Company concludes otherwise, it is required to perform a quantitative impairment test. To the extent an impairment loss is recognized, the loss establishes the new cost basis of the asset. Subsequent reversal of impairment losses is not permitted. Realized gains or losses on the sale of digital currencies are included in other income (expense) in the statements of operations. The Company had realized gain (losses) on sale of digital currencies of $183,146 and $(43,899) in the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively and of $162,691 and $(67,914) in the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Cryptocurrency mining revenues were $1,728,108 and $370,292 in the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively and $2,787,172 and $925,657 in the six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Property and equipment, consisting primarily of computer and other cryptocurrency mining equipment (transaction verification servers), is stated at the lower of cost or estimated realizable value and is depreciated when placed into service using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives. Management has assessed the basis of depreciation of these assets and believes they should be depreciated over a three-year period due to technological obsolescence reflecting rapid development of hardware that has faster processing capacity and other factors. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred and improvements are capitalized. Gains or losses on the disposition of property and equipment are recorded upon disposal.

During the six months ended December 31, 2023, the Company discontinued the use of damaged or non-serviceable mining equipment and wrote off its net book value of $121,670 to loss on disposition of property and equipment.

During the six months ended December 31, 2022, the Company discontinued the use of damaged or non-serviceable mining equipment and wrote off its net book value of $46,715 to loss on disposition of property and equipment.

Management has determined that the three-year diminishing value best reflects the current expected useful life of transaction verification servers. This assessment takes into consideration the availability of historical data and management’s expectations regarding the direction of the industry including potential changes in technology. Management will review this estimate annually and will revise such estimates as and when data becomes available.

To the extent that any of the assumptions underlying management’s estimate of useful life of its transaction verification servers are subject to revision in a future reporting period, either as a result of changes in circumstances or through the availability of greater quantities of data, then the estimated useful life could change and have a prospective impact on depreciation expense and the carrying amounts of these assets.

Payments to equipment suppliers prior to shipment of the equipment are recorded as equipment deposits.

As of December 31, 2023, and June 30, 2023, the Company had no derivative liabilities.

The Company evaluates its convertible debt, options, warrants or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for. The result of this accounting treatment is that under certain circumstances the fair value of the derivative is marked-to-market each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability. If the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the statement of operations as other income or expense. Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity. Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under this accounting standard are reclassified to liability at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date.

Where the number of warrants or common shares to be issued under these agreements is indeterminate, the Company has concluded that the equity environment is tainted, and all additional warrants and convertible debt are included in the value of the derivatives.

We estimate the fair value of the derivatives using, as applicable, either the Black-Scholes pricing model or multinomial lattice models that value the derivative liability based on a probability weighted discounted cash flow model using future projections of the various potential outcomes. We estimate the fair value of the derivative liabilities at the inception of the financial instruments, and, in the case of our convertible notes payable, at the date of conversions to equity and at each reporting date, recording a derivative liability, debt discount, additional paid-in capital and a gain or loss on change in derivative liabilities as applicable. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements and probabilities of certain outcomes based on management projections. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management’s judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.

All assets, including intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment when changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable in accordance with ASC 350 and ASC 360. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the expected undiscounted cash flows of the asset, an impairment charge is recognized equal to the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds fair value or net realizable value. The testing of these intangibles under established guidelines for impairment requires significant use of judgment and assumptions. Changes in forecasted operations and other assumptions could materially affect the estimated fair values. Changes in business conditions could potentially require adjustments to these asset valuations. We reported no impairment expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Series C and D preferred stock that contain certain default provisions requiring mandatory cash redemption that are outside the control of the Company are recorded as Mezzanine in the accompanying balance sheets.

The Company accounts for all equity-based payments in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. ASC Topic 718 requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock awards, stock options, warrants and other equity-based compensation issued to employees. The value of the portion of an award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods using the straight-line attribution method. The fair value of a stock award is recorded at the fair market value of a share of the Company’s stock on the grant date. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options and warrants at the grant date by using an appropriate fair value model such as the Black-Scholes option pricing model or multinomial lattice models.

We recognize revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This standard provides a single comprehensive model to be used in the accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The standard’s stated core principle is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, ASC 606 includes provisions within a five-step model that includes identifying the contract with a customer, identifying the performance obligations in the contract, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognizing revenue when, or as, an entity satisfies a performance obligation.

Our revenues consist of cryptocurrency mining revenues recognized in accordance with ASC 606 as discussed above. Amounts collected from customers prior to shipment of products are recorded as deferred revenue.

The Company earns its cryptocurrency mining revenues by providing transaction verification services within the digital currency networks of cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin. The Company satisfies its performance obligation at the point in time that the Company is awarded a unit of digital currency through its participation in the applicable network and network participants benefit from the Company’s verification service. In consideration for these services, the Company receives digital currencies, net of applicable network fees, which are recorded as revenue using the closing U.S. dollar price of the related cryptocurrency on the date of receipt. Expenses associated with running the cryptocurrency mining operations, such as equipment depreciation, rent, operating supplies, rent, utilities and monitoring services are recorded as cost of revenues.

There is currently no specific definitive guidance in GAAP or alternative accounting frameworks for the accounting for the production and mining of digital currencies and management has exercised significant judgment in determining appropriate accounting treatment for the recognition of revenue for mining of digital currencies. Management has examined various factors surrounding the substance of the Company’s operations and the guidance in ASC 606, including identifying the transaction price, when performance obligations are satisfied, and collectability is reasonably assured being the completion and addition of a block to a blockchain and the award of a unit of digital currency to the Company. In the event authoritative guidance is enacted by the FASB, the Company may be required to change its policies which could result in a change in the Company’s financial statements.

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions. When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. As of December 31, 2023, tax years 2017 through 2022 remain open for IRS audit. The Company has received no notice of audit from the IRS for any of the open tax years.

Basic net income or loss per share is calculated by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted income or loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock, such as “in-the-money” stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method, convertible debt, and convertible preferred stock, were exercised or converted into common stock. Equivalent shares are not utilized when the effect is anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, potential dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share; therefore, basic net loss per share is the same as diluted net loss per share.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets. The amendments in ASU No. 2023-08 are intended to improve the accounting for certain crypto assets by requiring an entity to measure those crypto assets at fair value each reporting period with changes in fair value recognized in net income. The amendments also improve the information provided to investors about an entity’s crypto asset holdings by requiring disclosure about significant holdings, contractual sale restrictions, and changes during the reporting period. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued (or made available for issuance). If an entity adopts the amendments in an interim period, it must adopt them as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. ASU No. 2023-08 requires a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other appropriate components of equity or net assets) as of the beginning of the annual reporting period in which an entity adopts the amendments. The Company has not yet adopted ASU No. 2023-08 and is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption will have on the Company’s financial statement presentation and disclosures.

There were no other new accounting pronouncements issued or proposed by the FASB during the six months ended December 31, 2023 and through the date of filing this report which the Company believes will have a material impact on its financial statements.

Certain amounts in the financial statements for prior year periods have been reclassified to conform to the presentation for the current year periods.
