NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1. BUSINESS

KwikClick, Inc., (the “Company” or “Kwik”) was organized pursuant to the laws of the State of Delaware on November 16, 1993. Beginning in 2020, the Company commenced its Kwik business operations to allow sellers to make products or services available on the Kwik platform, at Kwik.com, offering a self-determined incentive budget on goods or services in exchange for exposure and substantially increased sales volume. Kwik is a social interaction, selling, and referral software platform.

Going Concern

Since the commencement of the Kwik platform, the Company has accumulated a deficit of $11,138,906 and working capital deficit of $3,040,957 as of March 31, 2024. The Company will require additional funding to finance the growth of its future operations as well as to achieve its strategic objectives. This raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company's ability to raise additional capital and generate revenue. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted from these statements pursuant to such rules and regulations and, accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes necessary for comprehensive financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

In the opinion of the management of the Company, all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the three and nine-month periods have been made. Results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be expected for the entire fiscal year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary Kwik LLC. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of March 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

Loss Per Share

The Company presents both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the statements of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period under the treasury stock or if-converted method as applicable. Due to the incurrence of net losses, the Company did not include outstanding instruments convertible into common stock that would be anti-dilutive.

Research and Development

Research and development costs primarily consist of internal and external engineering staff wages, coding, and related on-going activities associated with upgrading and enhancing the Company’s internally developed software platform. Research and development costs that do not meet the criteria for capitalization, including those costs determined to be probable to not result in additional functionality, are expensed as incurred. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 the Company did not capitalize any research and development costs.

Revenue Recognition

The Company determines the measurement of revenue and the timing of revenue recognition utilizing the following core principles:

	·	Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer
	·	Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract
	·	Step 3: Determine the transaction price
	·	Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
	·	Step 5: Recognize revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation

Revenue is measured based on the amount of consideration that the Company expects to receive, reduced by estimates for return allowances, promotional discounts, and rebates. Revenue excludes any amounts collected on behalf of third parties, including product costs for goods not owned and indirect taxes.

The Company offers programs that provide sellers a software platform to sell their products. For some contracts the Company provides payment processing and order fulfillment facilitation. The Company is not the seller of record in these transactions.

The Company generally determines stand-alone revenue based on a percentage of the prices charged by the seller to deliver products sold. The commissions and any related fulfillment, shipping, and transaction processing fees the Company earns from these arrangements are recognized when the services are rendered, which generally occurs upon delivery of the related products to a third-party carrier or to the product purchaser. The Company does not incur material costs in obtaining third party seller contracts.

Applicable sales commissions paid in connection with contracts exceeding one year are capitalized and amortized over the contract term. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not incur material sales commissions.

Return Allowances

The fees earned by the Company are subject to returns under similar terms as set by the third-party services using the Company’s software platform. The Company does not assume responsibility for refund or replacement of product costs. Return allowances are estimated using historical experience. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not incur material returns.

Reclassification

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications are not material and had no effect on the previously reported financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

NOTE 3. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

During the quarter ended March 31, 2024 the Company issued 20,000 fully vested stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), to purchase shares of common stock based on the fair market value in excess of the base price on the date of exercise for a period of seven years.

The Company estimated the fair value of the SARs on the grant date using a Black-Scholes options pricing model using the quoted market price on the grant date; exercise price of $0.44 per share; expected volatility of approximately 80%; the contractual term of seven years; and a risk-free interest rate of 3.0%.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized management and payroll expense totaling $406,772 and $60,000, respectively, associated with all outstanding equity and equity-linked instruments.

NOTE 4. RELATED PARTY LOANS

The Company’s related party loans consist of the following:

Schedule of Related Party Loans
	March 31, 2024		December 31, 2023
Related party note payable with a nominal interest rate of 10% per annum due on demand	$	2,064,494	$	1,680,405
Accrued interest		120,431		74,040
Total related party note payable	$	2,184,925	$	1,754,445

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 the Company recognized interest expense of $47,211 and $284, respectively.

NOTE 5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

On May 31, 2023, NAI Liquidation Trust, the successor in interest to the defunct NewAge, Inc. by and through its Liquidation Trustee, Steven Balasiano, filed an adversary proceeding against the Company in the Newage Chapter 11 bankruptcy case (Delaware Case #22-10819). The Company licensed some of its technology to NewAge pursuant to a license agreement that started in September 2021 and terminated in late 2022. A prior adversarial action was brought by NewAge in the same bankruptcy case but was never served and was dismissed on June 1, 2023. Like the prior dismissed action, NAI Liquidation Trust contends that they are the rightful owner of KwikClick’s intellectual property. NAI Liquidation Trust brings several causes of action related to that contention.

The Company believes that the code base and functionality of its software platform differs materially from any intellectual property owned by NewAge. The Company intends to vigorously defend and assert its intellectual property rights. In the event the Company does not prevail it may be required to impair substantially all of its intangible assets with a carrying value of approximately $1.4 million at March 31, 2024 and may be forced to discontinue its on-going fee-based sales platform. The litigation is in its early stages, an estimate of reasonably possible loss cannot be made at this time. As such, there has been no further adjustment to the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

NOTE 6. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date the consolidated financial statements were issued and has determined that there are no material events that need to be disclosed, except as follows:

Subsequent to March 31, 2024, Mr. Cooper provided additional working capital advances totaling $79,092 to the Company. The balance of working capital advances through May 15, 2024 totaled $2,144,396. These advances bear interest of 10% per annum and are due on demand. Mr. Cooper has informally agreed to defer repayment of these loans until the Company has achieved a more stable liquidity position, however, he is not legally obligated to continue to do so.

Overview

The Company was organized pursuant to the laws of the State of Delaware on November 16, 1993. Beginning in 2020, the Company commenced its Kwik business operations to allow sellers to make products or services available on the Kwik platform, at Kwik.com, offering a self-determined incentive budget on goods or services in exchange for exposure and substantially increased sales volume. Kwik is a social interaction, selling, and referral software platform. Stores and manufacturers (“Brands”) wishing to promote their products or services on the Kwik software platform, which connects them to promoters, influencers, and customers. When the Brand is paid for the consumer purchases through the Kwik platform, the Brand pays an incentive budget to Kwik. Kwik receives the entire incentive budget as revenue for generating the sales through its platform, and recognizes cost of sales upon calculation and payment of the commissions paid to the wave of affiliates.

Comparison of operations for the three and Three Months ended March 31, 2024 to March 31, 2023

Revenues

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we recognized net revenues of $30,891 and $85,317, respectively. The decrease from the prior comparable three -month period of approximately 64% was the result of lower brand product sales on our platform. Management anticipates that Brand Services revenues will increase as we continue to develop our KWIK services, add vendors, and add users. The Company is currently in negotiations with several new brands, influencers, and influencer agencies, some of which have executed contracts, or who anticipate joining the platform within the next three to six months.

Cost of Sales

Our costs of revenue, totaling $1,765 and $30,159, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, primarily consists of marketing incentives and services for products that are sold on brands using the Kwik platform. Additionally, costs of revenue decreased due to a one-time reversal of estimated commissions at December 31, 2023. We expect the costs of revenue to fluctuate consistently with our sales volume and future product mix which is currently unpredictable based on the early stages of the KWIK platform.

Other Operating Expenses

During the Three Months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we incurred total other operating expenses of $748,291 and $912,245, respectively. The majority of the approximate $200,000 decrease resulted from a decrease in headcount and corresponding management and payroll costs, marketing expenses, and declines in our research and development activities. We do not expect to see substantial increases in our research and development activities until we are able to generate the necessary funding from operations and / or the receipt of additional capital investment.

In the event we are able to raise additional capital, we would anticipate our total operating expenses will trend upward as we add additional employees and consultants to work on the execution of our business plan, which includes activities such as design and coding of our website and app, vendor acquisition, cybersecurity, and user acquisition. We anticipate that much of this work will be done by outside consultants. In the coming 12 months, we anticipate increasing our promotional and marketing activities which will increase our operating expenses in our efforts to increase our product sales and user volumes.

Liquidity and capital resources

At March 31, 2024, we had a working capital deficit of $3,040,957. Approximately 71% of our liabilities as of March 31, 2024 are due to our majority shareholder, Mr. Fred Cooper. Mr. Cooper has provided $2,064,494 (exclusive of accrued interest of $120,431) in working capital advances through March 31, 2024 and an additional $79,092 through the date of this report. These advances are due on demand. Mr. Cooper has informally agreed to defer repayment of these loans until the Company has achieved a more stable liquidity position, however, he is not legally obligated to continue to do so.

While the Company continues to incur negative operational cash flows, it does not expect to pursue significant investing activities with the exception of the costs defend and maintain its patents.

We require additional capital to continue to operate our business, and to develop and expand our business. Sources of additional capital through various financing transactions or arrangements with third parties may include equity or debt financing, bank loans or revolving credit facilities. We may not be successful in locating suitable financing transactions in the time period required or at all, and we may not obtain the capital we require by other means.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Estimates

There has been no change in our critical accounting estimates from those disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 15, 2024.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Based on an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act were not effective as of March 31, 2024 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that, as of March 31, 2024, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to (i) insufficient segregation of duties in the finance and accounting functions due to limited personnel; and (ii) inadequate corporate governance policies. In the future, subject to working capital limitations, we intend to take appropriate and reasonable steps to make improvements to remediate these deficiencies.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal period to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations of the Effectiveness of Internal Controls

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the internal control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations of any internal control system, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

On May 31, 2023, NAI Liquidation Trust, the successor in interest to the defunct NewAge, Inc. by and through its Liquidation Trustee, Steven, Balasiano filed an adversary proceeding against the Company in the Newage Chapter 11 bankruptcy case (Delaware Case #22-10819). The Company licensed some of its technology to NewAge pursuant to a license agreement that started in September 2021 and terminated in late 2022. A prior adversarial action was brought by NewAge in the same bankruptcy case but was never served and was dismissed on June 1, 2023. Like the prior dismissed action, NAI Liquidation Trust contends that they are the rightful owner of KwikClick’s intellectual property. NAI Liquidation Trust brings several causes of action related to that contention.

The Company believes that the code base and functionality of its software platform differs materially from any intellectual property owned by NewAge. The Company intends to vigorously defend and assert its intellectual property rights. In the event the Company does not prevail it may be required to impair substantially all of its intangible assets with a carrying value of approximately $1.5 million at March 31, 2024 and may be forced to discontinue its on-going fee-based sales platform. The litigation is in its early stages, an estimate of reasonably possible loss cannot be made at this time. As such, there has been no further adjustment to the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows as of and for the Three Months ended March 31, 2024.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The Risk Factors identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was filed on April 15, 2024, continue to represent the most significant risks to the Company’s future results of operations and financial condition.
