PART I

Item 1. Business

Overview

Visium Technologies, Inc. (“Visium”) was incorporated in Nevada as Jaguar Investments, Inc. during October 1987. During March 2003, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company merged with Freight Rate, Inc., a development stage company in the logistics software business. During May 2003, the Company changed its name to Power2Ship, Inc. During October 2006, the Company merged with a newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary, Fittipaldi Logistics, Inc., a Nevada corporation, with the Company surviving but its name changed to Fittipaldi Logistics, Inc. effective November 2006. During December 2007, the Company merged with a newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary, NuState Energy Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation, with the Company surviving but renamed NuState Energy Holdings, Inc. effective December 2007. In March 2018, the Company brought in a new management team and changed its name to Visium Technologies, Inc.

Visium is a provider of IT infrastructure professional services including network engineering, system engineering, converged infrastructure deployment, software development, and cybersecurity services. Visium’s proprietary cyber security visualization, big data analytics and automation platform operates in the traditional cyber security space, as well as in the Internet of Things and data analytics spaces.  In March 2019, Visium entered into a software license agreement with MITRE Corporation to license a patented technology known as CyGraph, a tool for cyber warfare analytics, visualization and knowledge management. CyGraph is a military-grade, highly scalable big data analytics tool for cyber security, using graph database technology. The development of the technology was sponsored by the US Army and is currently in use by U.S. Army Cyber Command. CyGraph provides advanced analytics for cybersecurity situational awareness that is scalable, flexible and comprehensive. Visium has completed significant proprietary product development efforts to commercialize CyGraph, which the Company has rebranded as TruContext^TM. The commercialization efforts included adding functionality to the core technology to make it a native cloud application, adding multi-user and multi-tenant capability, enhancing the graphical user interface, (“GUI”) to make the application more intuitive to use, and adding enhanced dashboard and reporting capabilities. TruContext^TM would typically be deployed by an enterprise and be used by the security analyst to intuitively understand the massive amount of data flowing through the network environment, giving the analyst actionable information in real-time to ensure that the network is protected from threats. The analyst will understand the relationships of the assets in the data center, the communication patterns, and cybersecurity exposures, in real-time.

The Company is entering the digital transformation and data center design and construction market after it landed a contract in November, 2023 valued at over $20 million from its partner, Cybastion Institute of Technology.  The contract is to oversee the design and construction of data centers in the Republic of Côte d’Ivoire and the Republic of Benin. Visium is tasked with creating data centers that meet specific requirements and standards, ensuring optimal performance and reliability. The scope of work includes data center architecture and design, power civil engineering, controls and distribution systems, rack layouts, network topology, vendor high availability, and a comprehensive security stack solution which will include Visium’s proprietary TruContext^TM cybersecurity platform.  As of September 30, 2024 no activity has occurred pursuant to this contract.

The TruContext^TM platform provides visualization, advanced cyber monitoring intelligence, threat hunting, forensic and root cause analysis, data modeling, analytics, and automation to help reduce risk, simplify security, and deliver better security outcomes. Our mission is to help people see and understand data, empowering decision-makers to make more informed and more timely decisions. Our solutions put the power of data into the hands of everyday people, allowing a broad population of business users to engage with their data, ask questions, solve problems, and create value.

Our products dramatically reduce the complexity and expense associated with traditional business intelligence applications. Our software allows people to access information, perform analysis, and share results without assistance from technical specialists. By putting powerful analytical technology directly into the hands of people who make decisions with data, we accelerate the pace of informed and intelligent decision-making. Our TruContext^TM platform enables our customers to reduce or streamline their siloed and layered security products, simplifying operations while providing a comprehensive solution. Our solution automates certain previously manual tasks, freeing up personnel to focus on their most important objectives.

TruContext^TM can be deployed in a broad range of use cases such as cyber security threat intelligence and forensics, IT/OT critical infrastructure security, supply chain analytics, anti-fraud, law enforcement, compliance, and health care. For example, a breach of your network might go undetected for months, as was the case with the Solar Winds hack that occurred in 2019-2020. In that case the hackers went undetected for 14 months. A Solar Winds type breach may not be preventable, but with TruContext^TM analyzing streaming network data in real-time, this hack would almost certainly have been identified and remediated very quickly by the affected enterprise.

TruContext^TM is a very effective tool for proactively and iteratively searching through networks to detect and isolate advanced threats that evade existing security solutions. Should a breach occur, TruContext^TM can quickly perform forensics and root cause analysis, identifying when an incident occurred, how it occurred, and the downstream effects of the incident to the network.

One of the top challenges faced by Security practitioners is to keep up with the increase in new cyber-attacks while investigating and remediating existing threats. Time is of the essence while investigating potential threats and determining the scope and root-cause of a potential reach.

Shortage of resources and experienced personnel continues to limit the ability of companies to conduct thorough investigations.  Root cause analysis and forensics are key to intelligently securing the network.

TruContext^TM directly addresses these challenges by:

Providing real-time comprehensive visualized information on security events, that

The real-time ingestion of and visualization of massive amounts of data simplifies the cyber effort, allowing the cyber analyst to intuitively understand the security posture of the organization at a glance.

Using TruContext^TM makes the cyber analyst significantly more productive by eliminating false positives and prioritizing threat events. 

TruContext^TM ingests cyber data from any source, making the data generated by other cyber tools easily understood and actionable.  TruContext^TM give the security analyst the ability to combine, layer, filter, and query data with a no-code user interface in a way that no other analytics platform can do.

There are some sophisticated and powerful cybersecurity tools currently available, but they all lack one thing – providing a comprehensive contextualized understanding of the data.  Analysts have too many tools that don’t communicate, creating silos of data/information.  TruContext^TM brings all the information for a comprehensive visualization.

On average, according to CrowdStrike, the time from breach to harm caused by threat actors is 98 minutes making the ability to:

Using the MITRE ATT&CK framework, along with other open source intelligence information, TruContext^TM can hunt threats beyond the physical network boundary so that the analyst fully understands his security posture in real time.

TruContext^TM leverages MITRE’s ATT&CK^® framework, which is a globally-accessible knowledge base of adversary tactics and techniques based on real-world observations. The ATT&CK knowledge base is used as a foundation for the development of specific threat models and methodologies in the private sector, in government, and in the cybersecurity product and service community.

A use case example for TruContext^TM would be in the event sensitive data is being exfiltrated from your network to an external IP address. TruContext^TM has the capability to identify this activity and provide alerts that would allow the cyber analyst to quickly remediate the problem.

Another example of how TruContext^TM can be used by law enforcement in the context of police investigations. TruContext^TM can analyze highly connected data in real time from any source and make connections which help police solve crime. Connections are quickly made between persons, objects, locations, and events (the POLE model), generating insights into patterns of behaviors and incidents. Using real-time data with TruContext^TM helps investigators be proactive and prevent crime or other incidents, rather than only reacting after an incident has occurred.

Visium currently plans to generate revenue in three (3) primary ways:

Partnership Ecosystem

We work with a number of technology alliance partners to design go-to-market strategies that combine our platform with products or services provided by our technology alliance partners. These partner integrations deliver more secure solutions and an improved end user experience to their customers. Our technology alliance partnerships focus on security analytics, network and infrastructure security, threat platforms and orchestration, and automation.

Visium heavily relies on our technology and infrastructure to provide our products and services to our customers. For example, we host many of our products using third-party data center facilities, and we do not control the operation of these facilities. In addition, we rely on certain technology that we license from third parties, including third-party commercial software and open-source software, which is used with certain of our solutions.

Competition

The markets for our solutions are highly competitive, and we expect both the requirements and pricing competition to increase, particularly given the increasingly sophisticated attacks, changing customer preferences and requirements, current economic pressures, and market consolidation. Competitive pressures in these markets may result in price reductions, reduced margins, loss of market share and inability to gain market share, and a decline in sales, any one of which could seriously impact our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. We may face competition due to changes in the manner that organizations utilize IT assets and the security solutions applied to them, such as the provision of privileged account security functionalities as part of public cloud providers’ infrastructure offerings, or cloud-based identity management solutions. Limited IT budgets may also result in competition with providers of other advanced threat protection solutions such as McAfee, LLC, Palo Alto Networks, Splunk Inc., and Dynatrace. We also may compete, to a certain extent, with vendors that offer products or services in adjacent or complementary markets to privileged access management, including identity management vendors and cloud platform providers such as Okta and Tableau.

Employees

At September 30, 2024, we had 5 full time employees.

Our principal offices are located at 4094 Majestic Lane, Suite 360, Fairfax, Virginia 22033.  We currently operate in a virtual office arrangement.  Our telephone number is (703) 273-0383.

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink Market under the symbol “VISM”. The last reported sales price of our common stock on the OTC Pink on September [20], 2024, was $0.0027.

Recent Developments

Resignation of Directors

On July 25, 2024, the Company received written notice from Wayne Monk, Dr. Emmanuel Esaka, and Solomon Adote of their resignations as a members of the Board of Directors (“Board”) of the Company, effective immediately. Mr. Monk’s. Dr. Esaka’s, and Mr. Adote’s respective decisions to resign from the Board were not the result of any disagreement with the Company, the Board, management, or any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before investing in our common stock, you should carefully consider the risks described below, as well as the other information in this Annual Report, including our consolidated financial statements and the related notes. In addition, we may face additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us, or which as of the date of this Annual Report we might not consider significant, which may adversely affect our business. If any of the following risks occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In such case the trading price of our common stock and warrants could decline due to any of these risks or uncertainties, and you may lose part or all of your investment.

Risks Related to Our Business

Management and our independent auditors have raised substantial doubts as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

Our financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern. Since inception we have experienced recurring net losses which losses caused an accumulated deficit of approximately $62.7 million as of June 30, 2024. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Our future performance will depend on the continued engagement of key members of our management team.

Our future performance depends to a large extent on the continued services of members of our current management and other key personnel. While we have employment agreements with certain of our executive officers and key employees, the failure to secure the continued services of these or other key personnel for any reason, could have a material adverse effect on our business, operations, and prospects. We currently do not carry “key man insurance” on any of our executives.

We currently have a working capital deficit and negative cash flow from operations and are uncertain if and when we will be able to pay our current liabilities.

Our working capital deficit was approximately $5.15 million as of June 30, 2024. This deficit consists of $8,456 in current assets, offset by $5,157,000 in current liabilities. In addition, we had negative cash flow from operations for the year ended June 30, 2024 of approximately $488,300.  We do not have any liquid or other assets that can be liquidated to pay our current liabilities while we continue to incur additional liabilities to our officer and certain service providers who are working to prepare the documents required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission to enable our common shares to be registered for trading. Since we currently have limited operations, the only ways we have of paying our current liabilities are to issue our common or preferred shares to our creditors or to issue unsecured promissory notes which may include certain features such as convertibility into common or preferred shares or warrants to purchase additional common or preferred shares in the future.

We had $1,852,431 of convertible notes, notes payable, and accrued interest payable as of June 30, 2024, of which $1,344,042 of this amount is past due, and we do not have the funds necessary to pay these obligations.

In addition to funding our operating expenses, we need capital to pay various debt obligations totaling approximately $1,344,042 as of June 30, 2024 which are either currently past due or which are due in the current fiscal year. Currently, there is $481,383 principal amount of the convertible notes payable which is past due, $355,000 principal of the notes payable which is past due, and $507,659 of accrued interest which is past due. The interest on the past due principal amounts will continue to accrue monthly at their stated rates. Holders of past due notes do not have a security interest in our assets. The existence of these obligations provides additional challenges to us in our efforts to raise capital to fund our operations.

In the event we consummate a transaction with a profitable company, we may not be able to utilize our net operating loss carryover which may have a negative impact on your investment.

If we enter into a combination with a business that has operating income, we cannot assure you that we will be able to utilize all or even a portion of our existing net operating loss carryover for federal or state tax purposes following such a business combination. If we are unable to make use of our existing net operating loss carryover, the tax advantages of such a combination may be limited, which could negatively impact the price of our stock and the value of your investment. These factors will substantially increase the uncertainty, and thus the risk, of investing in our shares.

Economic conditions may affect our ability to obtain financing and to complete a merger or acquisition.

Due to general economic conditions, rapid technological advances being made in some industries, and shortages of available capital, our management believes that there are numerous firms seeking even the limited additional capital which we will need. In the presence of these economic conditions, we may have difficulty raising sufficient capital to support the investigation of potential business opportunities, and to consummate a merger or acquisition. These factors substantially increase the uncertainty, and thus the risk, of investing in our shares.

In December 2019, a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) emerged and has subsequently spread worldwide. The World Health Organization has declared COVID-19 a pandemic resulting in federal, state, and local governments mandating various restrictions, including travel restrictions, restrictions on public gatherings, stay at home orders and advisories and quarantining of people who may have been exposed to the virus.

As the COVID-19 pandemic is complex and rapidly changing, the full extent and duration of the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s operation and financial performance is currently unknown and depends on future developments that are uncertain and unpredictable, including the duration and spread of the pandemic, its impact on capital and financial markets.

There are a number of factors related to our common stock which may have an adverse effect on our shareholders.

Shareholders’ interests in our Company will be diluted and investors may suffer dilution in their net book value per share if we issue additional shares or raise funds through the sale of equity securities. In the event that we are required to issue additional shares, enter into private placements to raise financing through the sale of equity securities or acquire business interests in the future from the issuance of shares of our common stock to acquire such interests, the interests of existing shareholders in our Company will be diluted and existing shareholders may suffer dilution in their net book value per share depending on the price at which such securities are sold. If we do issue additional shares, it will cause a reduction in the proportionate ownership and voting power of all existing shareholders.

Any significant cybersecurity incident or disruption of our information technology systems or those of third-party partners could materially damage user relationships and subject us to significant reputational, financial, legal and operation consequences.

We may depend on our information technology systems, as well as those of third parties, to develop new products and services, host and manage our services, store data and process transactions. Any material disruption or slowdown of our systems or those of third parties upon whom we depend could cause outages or delays in our services, particularly in the form of interruption of services delivered by our website, which could harm our brand and adversely affect our operating results. Our failure to implement adequate cybersecurity protections could subject us to claims for any breach of security, particularly if it results in disclosure of information relating to our customers. If changes in technology cause our information technology systems, or those of third parties whom we depend upon, to become obsolete, or if our or their information systems are inadequate to handle our growth, we could lose users, and our business and operating results could be adversely affected.

Risks Related to Our Corporate Structure and Ownership of Our Securities

We have certain provisions in our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, and there are other provisions under Florida law, that may serve to make a takeover of our Company more difficult.

Provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws may delay or prevent a takeover which may not be in the best interests of our stockholders. Provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws may be deemed to have anti-takeover effects, which include when and by whom special meetings of our stockholders may be called, and may delay, defer, or prevent a takeover attempt. In addition, certain provisions of Florida law also may be deemed to have certain anti-takeover effects which include that control of shares acquired in excess of certain specified thresholds will not possess any voting rights unless these voting rights are approved by a majority of a corporation’s disinterested stockholders.

Future capital raises may dilute our existing stockholders’ ownership and/or have other adverse effects on our operations.

If we raise additional capital by issuing equity securities, our existing stockholders’ percentage ownership may decrease, and these stockholders may experience substantial dilution. If we raise additional funds by issuing debt instruments, these debt instruments could impose significant restrictions on our operations, including liens on our assets. If we raise additional funds through collaborations and licensing arrangements, we may be required to relinquish some rights to our technologies or products, or to grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us or could diminish the rights of our stockholders.

We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future; therefore, capital appreciation, if any, of our common stock, will be your sole source of gain for the foreseeable future.

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings to fund the development and growth of our business. In addition, future loan arrangements, if any, may contain, terms prohibiting or limiting the amount of dividends that may be declared or paid on our common stock. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, of our common stock, will be your sole source of gain for the foreseeable future.

Voting power of our shareholders is highly concentrated by insiders.

Our officers and directors control, either directly or indirectly, a substantial portion of our voting securities. As of June 30, 2024, our executive officer and directors beneficially owns 67,218,882 shares of Common Stock, or approximately 31% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock. In addition, our executive officer owns the only issued and outstanding share of Series AA Convertible Preferred Stock which entitles him to 51% of the Common votes on any matter requiring a shareholder vote. Therefore, our management may significantly affect the outcome of all corporate actions and decisions for an indefinite period of time including the election of directors, amendment of charter documents and approval of mergers and other significant corporate transactions.

Our common stock is quoted in the over the counter market on the OTC Pink.

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink. OTC Pink offers a quotation service to companies that are unable to list their securities on an exchange or for companies, such as ours, whose securities are not eligible for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board. The requirements for quotation on the OTC Pink are considerably lower and less regulated than those of the OTC Bulletin Board or an exchange. Because our common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink, it is possible that even fewer brokers or dealers would be interested in making a market in our common stock which further adversely impacts its liquidity.

The tradability of our common stock is limited under the penny stock regulations which may cause the holders of our common stock difficulty should they wish to sell their shares.

Because the quoted price of our common stock is less than $5.00 per share, our common stock is considered a “penny stock,” and trading in our common stock is subject to the requirements of Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act. Under this rule, broker/dealers who recommend low-priced securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors must satisfy special sales practice requirements. The broker/dealer must make an individualized written suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written consent prior to the transaction. SEC regulations also require additional disclosure in connection with any trades involving a “penny stock,” including the delivery, prior to any penny stock transaction, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and its associated risks. These requirements severely limit the liquidity of securities in the secondary market because few broker or dealers are likely to undertake these compliance activities and this limited liquidity will make it more difficult for an investor to sell his shares of our common stock in the secondary market should the investor wish to liquidate the investment. In addition to the applicability of the penny stock rules, other risks associated with trading in penny stocks could also be price fluctuations and the lack of a liquid market.

Substantial future sales of shares of our common stock could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.

The market price of shares of our common stock could decline as a result of substantial sales of our common stock, particularly sales by our directors, executive officers and significant stockholders, or a large number of shares of our common stock becoming available for sale or the perception in the market that holders of a large number of shares intend to sell their shares.

The market price of our shares of common stock is subject to fluctuation.

The market prices of our shares may fluctuate significantly in response to factors, some of which are beyond our control, including:

Recently, the stock market, in general, has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. Continued market fluctuations could result in extreme market volatility in the price of our shares of common stock which could cause a decline in the value of our shares.

We have identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. This material weakness could continue to adversely affect our ability to report our results of operations and financial condition accurately and in a timely manner.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Our management is likewise required, on a quarterly basis, to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and to disclose any changes and material weaknesses identified through such evaluation in those internal controls. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

As described elsewhere in this Annual Report, we identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to functional controls and segregation of duties. As a result of this material weakness, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of June 30, 3024.

Any failure to maintain such internal control could adversely impact our ability to report our financial position and results from operations on a timely and accurate basis, which could result in a material adverse effect on our business. If our financial statements are not accurate, investors may not have a complete understanding of our operations. Likewise, if our financial statements are not filed on a timely basis, we could be subject to sanctions or investigations by OTC Markets, the SEC or other regulatory authorities. In addition, we would likely incur additional accounting, legal and other costs in connection with any remediation steps. Ineffective internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our stock.

To respond to this material weakness, we have devoted, and plan to continue to devote, significant effort and resources to the remediation and improvement of our internal control over financial reporting. While we have processes to identify and appropriately apply applicable accounting requirements, we plan to enhance these processes to better evaluate our research and understanding of the nuances of the complex accounting standards that apply to our financial statements.

We can give no assurance that the measures we have taken and plan to take in the future will remediate the material weakness identified or that any additional material weaknesses or restatements of financial results will not arise in the future due to a failure to implement and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting or circumvention of these controls. In addition, even if we are successful in strengthening our controls and procedures, in the future those controls and procedures may not be adequate to prevent or identify irregularities or errors or to facilitate the fair presentation of our financial statements.

Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act could prevent us from producing reliable financial reports or identifying fraud. In addition, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which could have an adverse effect on our stock price.

We are subject to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud, and a lack of effective controls could preclude us from accomplishing these critical functions. We are required to document and test our internal control procedures in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, in connection with, PCAOB AS 2201 which requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024, and concluded that our internal controls and procedures were not effective.

Risks Related to Operations Outside of the United States

We are subject to economic, political and other risks of doing business globally and in emerging markets.

We will be a multi-national business and our business strategies may involve expanding or developing our business in emerging market regions, including Eastern Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and Africa. Due to the international nature of our business, we are exposed to various risks of international operations, including:

Emerging markets are subject to different risks as compared to more developed markets. Operating a business in an emerging market can involve a greater degree of risk than operating a business in more developed markets, including, in some cases, increased political, economic and legal risks. Emerging market governments and judiciaries often exercise broad, unchecked discretion and are susceptible to abuse and corruption. Moreover, financial turmoil in any emerging market country tends to adversely affect the value of investments in all emerging market countries as investors move their money to more stable, developed markets. As has happened in the past, financial problems or an increase in the perceived risks associated with investing in companies in emerging economies could dampen foreign investment and adversely affect the local economy. Generally, investment in emerging markets is only suitable for sophisticated investors who fully appreciate the significance of the risks involved in, and are familiar with, investing in emerging markets.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.

Not applicable.

Item 1C. Cybersecurity

Cyberattacks are a growing geopolitical risk, becoming larger, more frequent, more intricate and more relentless. These attacks represent a significant threat to individual organizations and their ability to conduct daily operations. We rely on accounting, financial, and operational management information systems to conduct our operations. Any disruption in these systems could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business. Furthermore, as part of our normal business activities, we collect and store common confidential information about customers, employees, vendors, and suppliers. This information is entitled to protection under a number of regulatory regimes.

Any failure to maintain the security of the data, including the penetration of our network security and the misappropriation of confidential and personal information, could result in business disruption, damage to our reputation, financial obligations to third parties, fines, penalties, regulatory proceedings and private litigation with potentially large costs. This scenario may also result in a deterioration of customer confidence in us and potentially other competitive disadvantages. As such, a cyberattack could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

While we devote resources to implement and maintain security measures to protect our systems and data, these measures cannot provide absolute security against a cyberattack. In such an event, the insurance coverage we maintain may be inadequate to cover claims, costs, and liabilities relating to cybersecurity incidents.

While we have not been subject to cyberattacks and other cyber incidents, we take cybersecurity preparedness seriously. Our risk management framework considers cybersecurity risk alongside other company risks as part of our overall risk assessment process. We have plans to implement cybersecurity training for all employees upon onboarding, and then annual follow-up training courses to ensure that all employees understand the risk and implications of a cyber event.

We plan to implement a Cybersecurity Committee which will be responsible for the day-to-day management of cybersecurity risks, and which will meet bi-monthly to review our practices related to cyber events and risk management. The Committee will be composed of the Chief Financial Officer and our technical leadership staff. The Committee will develop and implement cybersecurity risk mitigation strategies and activities, including the management of comprehensive incident response plans, oversee the cybersecurity risks posed by third-party vendors, ensure policies and procedures are current and followed, and receive regular updates on cybersecurity-related matters. Further, the Committee will engage subject matter experts such as consultants and auditors to assist us in establishing processes to assess, identify, and manage potential and actual cybersecurity threats, to actively monitor our systems internally using widely accepted digital applications, processes, and controls, and to provide forensic assistance to facilitate system recovery in the case of an incident.

The Audit Committee of our Board of Directors oversees our policies and practices with respect to risk assessment and risk management, including the review, in coordination with our management, of our management of cybersecurity. The Audit Committee will receive regular updates from the Cybersecurity Committee on the state of cybersecurity risks we face. This will include briefings on any significant cyber incidents and ongoing risk management efforts. These updates will enable the Audit Committee to provide informed reports on cybersecurity matters to the full Board.

As of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we are not aware of any risks from cybersecurity threats that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect us, our business strategy, results of operations or financial condition.

Overview

The Company was incorporated in Nevada as Jaguar Investments, Inc. during October 1987. During March 2003, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company merged with Freight Rate, Inc., a development stage company in the logistics software business. During May 2003, the Company changed its name to Power2Ship, Inc. During October 2006, the Company merged with a newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary, Fittipaldi Logistics, Inc., a Nevada corporation, with the Company surviving but its name changed to Fittipaldi Logistics, Inc. effective November 2006. During December 2007, the Company merged with a newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary, NuState Energy Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation, with the Company surviving but renamed NuState Energy Holdings, Inc. effective December 2007. In March 2019, the Company changed its name to Visium Technologies, Inc.

Since February 12, 2018 Mark Lucky has served as Chairman and CEO. He also currently serves as CFO. The Company’s headquarters is located at 4094 Majestic Lane, Suite 360, Fairfax, VA 22124. Since February 2018, the Company has focused on creating a world-class cybersecurity/digital risk management company, with a focus on network security, threat visualization, pinpoint threat identification, and big-data analytics. Our solutions address the growing security and compliance complexities and risks resulting from the increasing adoption of cloud computing and the proliferation of geographically dispersed IT assets.

In March 2019, Visium entered into a software license agreement with MITRE Corporation to license a patented technology, known as Cygraph, a tool for cyber warfare analytics, visualization, and knowledge management. Cygraph is a military-grade highly scalable big data analytics tool for Cybersecurity, based on graph database technology.  The  development of the technology was sponsored by, and is currently in use by United States Army Cyber Command.  Cygraph provides advanced analytics for cybersecurity situational awareness that is scalable, flexible, and comprehensive.  Visium has completed significant proprietary product development efforts to commercialize Cygraph.  During fiscal 2022 the Company rebranded Cygraph as TruContext^TM to reflect the enhanced version of the software tool which resulted from significant proprietary development of the software.

The Company is entering the digital transformation and data center design and construction market after it landed a contract in November, 2023 valued at over $20 million from its partner, Cybastion Institute of Technology.  The contract is to oversee the design and construction of data centers in the Republic of Côte d’Ivoire and the Republic of Benin. Visium is tasked with creating data centers that meet specific requirements and standards, ensuring optimal performance and reliability. The scope of work includes data center architecture and design, power civil engineering, controls and distribution systems, rack layouts, network topology, vendor high availability, and a comprehensive security stack solution which will include Visium’s proprietary TruContext^TM cybersecurity platform.  As of June 30, 2024 no activity has occurred pursuant to this contract.

Results of Operations

Development Expense

For the year ended June 30, 2024, development expense totaled $86,702 as compared to $214,965 for the year ended June 30, 2023, a decrease of $128,263 or approximately 60%.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses

For the year ended June 30, 2024, selling, general and administrative expenses were $2,501,775 as compared to $2,198,639 for the year ended June 30, 2023, an increase of $303,136 or approximately 14%. For the years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 selling, general and administrative expenses consisted of the following:

The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses during fiscal 2024, when compared with the prior year, is primarily due to an increase in stock-based consulting expense of $388,885, an increase in legal and professional fees of $25,694, and an increase in consulting fees of $29,980, offset by a decrease in salaries of $97,088, a decrease in investor relations expense of $13,688, and a decrease in stock-based compensation expense of $14,743.

Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liability

Changes in fair value of derivative liabilities results from the changes in the fair value of the derivative liability due to the application of ASC 815, resulting in either income or expense, depending on the difference in fair value of the derivative liabilities between their measurement dates. The increase in fair value of derivative liabilities recognized during fiscal 2024 is primarily due to a change in accounting estimate related to the accounting for derivative liabilities as a result of a decrease in share price.

Derivative Liability Expense

The Company issued convertible notes in January 2023 and June 2023 which provisions contained variable price conversion terms, resulting in a derivative liability expense, measured as of the issuance date of the notes.

Interest Expense

Interest expense represents the stated interest of notes and convertible notes payable as well as the amortization of debt discount. The decrease in interest expense during fiscal 2024 is primarily due to lower discount amortization expense of $59,600 in fiscal 2024.

Loss on extinguishment of debt

In September 2022 we issued 138,667 warrants with a five-year life, and a fixed exercise price of $1.35 per share, as part of a modification to three outstanding convertible notes payable. The Company evaluated these amendments under ASC 470-50, “Debt - Modification and Extinguishment”, and concluded that the issuance of these warrants in exchange for deferring the interim interest payments that were due resulted in significant and consequential changes to the economic substance of the debt and thus resulted in accounting for these modifications as an extinguishment of the debt.  Under ASC 470-50, the issuance of these warrants resulted in a loss on the extinguishment of debt, as follows:

During the year ended June 30, 2023, we recorded a loss on the payoff of convertible note totaling $12,062, which is recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Operations as loss on extinguishment of debt.

A recap of the Loss on extinguishment of debt during fiscal 2023 is as follows:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2024 our total assets consisted of cash.  At June 30, 2023 100% our total assets consisted of cash.

We do not have any material commitments for capital expenditures.

The objective of liquidity management is to ensure that we have ready access to sufficient funds to meet commitments and effectively implement our growth strategy. Our primary sources are financing activities such as the issuance of notes payable and convertible notes payable. In the past, we have mostly relied on debt and equity financing to provide for our operating needs.

We were unable to generate sufficient funds from operations to fund our ongoing operating requirements through June 30, 2024. As of September 30, 2024, we had approximately $11,000. We may need to raise funds to enhance our working capital and use them for strategic purposes. If such need arises, we intend to generate proceeds from either debt or equity financing.

We intend to finance our operations using equity financing. We do not anticipate incurring capital expenditures for the foreseeable future. We anticipate that we will need to raise approximately $180,000 per year in the near term to finance the recurring costs of being a publicly traded company.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Company has used net cash in its operating activities of $488,319 and $523,886 during the years ended June 30 2024 and 2023, respectively, and has a working capital deficit of approximately $5.1 million and $4.3 million at June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due, to fund possible future acquisitions, and to generate profitable operations in the future, once a merger with an operating company is consummated. Management plans may continue to provide for its capital requirements by issuing additional equity securities and debt and the Company will continue to find possible acquisition targets. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time and there are no assurances that, if achieved, the Company will have sufficient funds to execute its business plan or generate positive operating results.

Year ended June 30, 2024

Net cash used in operations in fiscal year 2024 decreased by $35,567 or 6.8% from fiscal year 2023. Cash from financing activities was obtained through the sale of convertible notes that netted the Company $122,960, and the sale of promissory notes that netted the Company $465,000.

Year ended June 30, 2023

Net cash used in operations in fiscal year 2023 decreased by $1,691,435 or 76% from fiscal year 2022. Cash from financing activities was obtained through the sale of common stock that netted the Company $40,250, the sale of convertible notes that netted the Company $140,000, and the sale of promissory notes that netted the Company $190,000.

Capital Raising Transactions

Issuance of Convertible Notes Payable

We generated net proceeds of $122,960 and $140,000 during fiscal 2024 and 2023, respectively, from the issuance of convertible notes payable. 

Convertible Notes Payable

The Company had convertible promissory notes aggregating approximately $534,361 and $937,576 outstanding at June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The accrued interest amounted to approximately $251,455 and $324,031 at June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. There is no provision in the note agreements for adjustments to the interest rates on these notes in the event of default. The convertible notes payable bear interest at rates ranging between 0% and 18% per annum. Interest is generally payable monthly. The Convertible Notes Payable are generally convertible at rates ranging between $0.0042 and $30,375,000 per share, at the holders’ option.

Notes Payable

The Company had promissory notes aggregating approximately $777,954 at June 30, 2024 and $380,013 at June 30, 2023. The related accrued interest amounted to approximately $288,661 and $224,010 at June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. There is no provision in the note agreements for adjustments to the interest rates on these notes in the event of default. The notes payable bear interest at rates between 0% and 20% per annum. Interest is generally payable monthly. $355,000 of these notes have matured as of June 30, 2024.  We generated net proceeds of $465,000 during fiscal 2024 from the issuance of short-term notes payable.

Common Stock Warrants

In January and February 2021, we issued 39,371 warrants with a two-year life, and fixed exercise prices ranging from $0.0055 to $0.02 per share. An additional 9,239,130 warrant shares were issued due to repricing certain warrants with a $0.02 exercise price to a $0.0115 exercise price.

In September 2022, we issued 138,667 warrants with a five year life, and a fixed exercise price of $1.35 per share, as part of a modification to three outstanding convertible notes payable. The Company evaluated these amendments under ASC 470-50, “Debt - Modification and Extinguishment”, and concluded that the issuance of these warrants in exchange for deferring the interim interest payments that were due resulted in significant and consequential changes to the economic substance of the debt and thus resulted in accounting for these modifications as an extinguishment of the debt.  Under ASC 470-50, the issuance of these warrants resulted in a loss on the extinguishment of debt, as follows:

A summary of the status of the Company’s outstanding common stock warrants as of June 30, 2024 and changes during the fiscal year ending on that date is as follows:

Derivative Liability

The Company recognizes all derivative financial instruments on its balance sheet at fair value.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Climate Change

Our opinion is that neither climate change, nor governmental regulations related to climate change, have had, or are expected to have, any material effect on our operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the US, (“US GAAP”.) The preparation of these financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, assumptions and judgments. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions and the impact of such differences may be material to our financial statements.

We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if: (1) the accounting estimate requires us to make assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate was made, and (2) changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, or use of different estimates that we reasonably could have used in the current period, would have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

The following critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of our consolidated financial statements. For a summary of our significant accounting policies, including the critical accounting policies discussed below, refer to Note 2 - “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” included in the notes to consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2024 included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

We consider the following accounting policies to be those most important to the portrayal of our results of operations and financial condition:

Revenue Recognition

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The guidance provided in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 (“ASC 606”) requires entities to use a five-step model to recognize revenue by allocating the consideration from contracts to performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis.  Revenue recognition is evaluated through the following five steps: (i) identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer; (ii) identification of the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determination of the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognition of revenue when or as a performance obligation is satisfied.

The Company recognizes revenue when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied. Product sales occur once control is transferred upon delivery to the customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring products. In the event any discounts, sales incentives, or similar arrangements are agreed to with a customer, such amounts are estimated at time of sale and deducted from revenue. Sales taxes and other similar taxes are excluded from revenue.

Convertible Instruments - The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in its convertible instruments in accordance with ASC 815.

ASC 815 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 in accordance with EITF 00-19. 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 subject to the requirements of ASC 815. ASC 815 also provides an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional (as that term is described).

The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with the provisions of ASC 470 20 “Debt with Conversion Options” 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. Debt 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 note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note.

The Company believes the certain conversion features embedded in convertible notes payable are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics of the Company’s stock price. Accordingly, the Company has recognized derivative liabilities in connection with such instruments. The Company uses judgment in determining the fair value of derivative liabilities at the date of issuance at every balance sheet thereafter. The Company uses judgment in determining which valuation is most appropriate for the instrument (e.g., Cox, Ross & Rubinstein Binomial Tree valuation model), the expected volatility, the implied risk-free interest rate, as well as the expected dividend rate.

Share-Based Compensation

We compute share-based payments in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation and related interpretations. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at the fair value of the share-based payments. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the grants.

Restricted stock awards are granted at the discretion of the compensation committee of our board of directors (the “Board of Directors”). These awards are restricted as to the transfer of ownership and generally vest over the requisite service periods (vesting on a straight–line basis). The fair value of a stock award is equal to the fair market value of a share of our common stock on the grant date.

We estimate the fair value of stock options and warrants by using the Cox, Ross & Rubinstein Binomial Tree model. The Cox, Ross & Rubinstein valuation model requires the development of assumptions that are inputs into the model. These assumptions are the expected stock volatility, the risk–free interest rate, the expected life of the option, the dividend yield on the underlying stock and the expected forfeiture rate. Expected volatility is calculated based on the historical volatility of our common stock over the expected term of the option. Risk–free interest rates are calculated based on continuously compounded risk–free rates for the appropriate term.

Determining the appropriate fair value model and calculating the fair value of equity–based payment awards requires the input of the subjective assumptions described above. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of equity–based payment awards represent management’s best estimates, which involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. We are required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and recognize expense only for those shares expected to vest.

We account for share–based payments granted to non–employees in accordance with ASC 505–50, “Equity Based Payments to Non–Employees.” We determine the fair value of the stock–based payment as either the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more readily determinable. If the fair value of the equity instruments issued is used, it is measured using the stock price and other measurement assumptions as of the earlier of either (1) the date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached, or (2) the date at which the counterparty’s performance is complete.

Derivative Instruments

We enter into financing arrangements that consist of freestanding derivative instruments or are hybrid instruments that contain embedded derivative features. We recognize derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure such derivative instruments at fair values with gains or losses recognized in earnings. Embedded derivatives that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract are bifurcated and are recognized at fair value with changes in fair value recognized as either a gain or loss in earnings. The fair values of derivative financial instruments are estimated using various techniques (and combinations thereof) that are considered consistent with the objective measuring fair values. In selecting the appropriate technique, the nature of the instrument, the market risks that it embodies and the expected means of settlement are considered. Estimating fair values of derivative financial instruments requires the development of significant and subjective estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In addition, option-based techniques (such as the Cox, Ross & Rubinstein model) are highly volatile and sensitive to changes in the trading market price of our common stock. Since derivative financial instruments are initially and subsequently carried at fair values, our income (expense) going forward will reflect the volatility in these estimates and assumption changes.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, who at June 30, 2024 was also our principal executive and financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that material information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, including ensuring that such material information is accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Officer to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024. In making this assessment, our management used criteria issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting – Guidance for Smaller Public Companies.

During our assessment of the design and the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024, management identified the following material weaknesses:

A material weakness is “a significant deficiency, or a combination of significant deficiencies, that result in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected by us in a timely manner.” A significant deficiency is a deficiency or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of the registrant’s financial reporting.

We intend to gradually improve our internal control over financial reporting to the extent that we can allocate resources to such improvements. We intend to prioritize the design of our internal control over financial reporting starting with our control environment and risk assessments and ending with control activities, information and communication activities, and monitoring activities. Although we believe the time to adapt in the next year will help position us to provide improved internal control functions into the future, in the interim, these changes caused control deficiencies, which in the aggregate resulted in a material weakness. Due to the existence of these material weaknesses, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of June 30, 2024.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the SEC that permit smaller reporting companies to provide only the management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
