NOTE
A – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A
summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements follows.
Business
General
Overview
Sparta
Commercial Services, Inc. (“Sparta,” “we,” “us,” or the “Company”) is a Nevada corporation
with headquarters in New York City, www.spartacommercial.com. We are a multi-disciplined parent corporation operating across three
business sectors – Financial Services, E-Commerce & Mobile Technology, and Health and Wellness, (www.spartacommercial.com).
Sparta’s
roots are in the Powersports industry. The Company provided retail installment loans and leases through authorized motorcycle dealerships
in 33 states, with financing provided by institutional lenders. The Company also maintained a full underwriting and servicing platform
for its portfolio. Notwithstanding the discontinuance of our initial focus on consumer loans and leases post Lehman and during the 2008
financial crisis; in 2007, the Company had introduced a new initiative, Municipal Financing, (www.spartamunicipal.com), which
has financed over 100 jurisdictions to date. Sparta’s Municipal Finance program is also currently available to all nonprofit organizations,
institutions and entities. All nonprofit organizations which adhere to IRS guidelines, including 501 (c) 3 of the Internal Revenue Code,
are eligible. Both public nonprofits, also known as public charities supported with publicly collected funds, and private nonprofits,
also known as private foundations supported by an individual or business entity, qualify for the program.
Vehicle
History Reports are a staple of Sparta’s E-Commerce Technology subsidiary iMobile Solutions, Inc. Whether a vehicle is intended
for business or recreational use, Sparta’s Vehicle History Reports are highly regarded for accuracy and completeness and have been
sold across all 50 states and in 62 countries worldwide. They provide a trusted layer of assurance to vehicle buyers and are available
on Kelley Blue Book, AllState Insurance and a range of various dealership websites. They include Cyclechex (Motorcycle History Reports
at www.cyclechex.com), RVchex (Recreational Vehicle History Reports at www.rvchex.com), and Truckchex (Heavy Duty Truck
History Reports at www.truckchex.com). Consumers, retailers, municipals, nonprofits, auction houses, banks and insurance companies
alike scrutinize title history reports for the vital information needed and factored into crucial business decisions that affect the
bottom line.
The
Company’s E-Commerce and Mobile Technology subsidiary name change to iMobile Solutions, Inc., from Specialty Reports, Inc., in
2016, signifies its ever-broadening service offerings in the evolving technology landscape. With iMobile App (www.imobileapp.com),
the Company provides mobile technology services, including web and mobile application creation, development and management for a wide
range of businesses to increase revenue, build brand recognition, and improve customer engagement. Our ever-broadening business base
of mobile application includes vehicle dealerships and racetracks, private clubs and country clubs, schools and entertainment venues,
restaurants and grocery stores, as well as various other merchant types. (www.imobileapp.com/app-gallery). The Company also designs,
launches, maintains and hosts websites for businesses incorporating SEO (search engine optimization), social media marketing, and online
reviews to improve their presence online. We provide specific, tailored action plans for our clients’ websites that include services
such as eCommerce, CRM (Customer Relationship Management) development and integration. This custom software not only helps businesses
communicate with customers but can also be used for employees to communicate internally. The CRM software can be web based, integrated
with a mobile app, or both. We work with clients to understand their unique needs and incorporate the features and requirements that
are most important to them and will facilitate their business growth and success. Correspondingly, the Company designs and builds custom
kitchen ordering software for independent grocery stores, delicatessens, and other food service businesses. The software can be designed
for use in a combination of ways including mobile devices and in-store ordering. The kitchen ordering software is enabled with payment
integration, text messaging notification, wireless printing, and other features. iMobile Solutions, Inc. provides a turn-key solution
for any business looking to simplify or streamline their kitchen ordering process. Additionally, we offer text messaging services, which
supplement business marketing strategies both to gain and retain brand loyalty among its clients, customers and investors. Our text messaging
platform allows our clients to easily manage, schedule and analyze text message performance.
Sparta
created its subsidiary, New World Health Brands, Inc., in April 2019, on the heels of the Agriculture Improvement Act (also known as
the Farm Bill), which was signed into law the previous December 20, 2018. Consequently, hemp (CBD) was removed from Schedule 1 of the
Controlled Substances Act. Company management recognized the substantial business opportunity that lay ahead in the rapidly expanding
hemp-CBD (cannabidiol) market in the United States. During 2019-2020, we sourced, developed and tested 5 CBD product categories totaling
31 products. We procured premium, domestic-grade, full-spectrum, broad-spectrum, and THC free hemp, created product packaging and labelling,
and implemented fulfilment to launch an online B to C website: www.newworldhealthcbd.com on December 21, 2019. The Company has
since curated its products and currently offers 15 products with plans to add complementary products to our product line. Our CBD products
are available in full spectrum, broad spectrum and non-detectable below the legal limit of .3 THC (ND-THC) and come in capsules, oils,
tablets, gel caps, tinctures, salves, creams, lotions, as well as pet chews and tinctures. We remain watchful of consumer needs, adjusting
our product line offerings either by adding new products, adjusting the potency levels of existing products or discontinuing still others,
as warranted. To ensure the safety and quality of our products, all CBD product offerings are exclusively sourced, manufactured and tested
at highly accredited testing facilities in the United States and adhere to strict U.S. standards and guidelines. Because of our high
standards, in-depth quality testing and label transparency, consumers know they can trust us.
Sparta’s
response to the onset of the COVID 19 pandemic in early 2020 quickly took shape with thorough investigations into evolving customer trends
in health and wellness. As a result, we expanded New World Health Brands and developed a new product line of natural dietary supplements.
In August 2020, we launched an online B to C website: www.newworldhealthbrands.com, featuring high quality dietary supplements,
including vitamins and minerals, such as, Zinc, Magnesium, Boron, Iodine, Beetroot Extract, Selenium, Vitamin B Complex, Vitamin C and
PQQ. To ensure the safety and quality of our products, all health and wellness offerings are exclusively sourced and manufactured in
the United States and adhere to strict U.S. standards and guidelines. Sparta’s commitment to high standards and transparency are
tantamount to being a trusted brand.
Sparta’s
newest subsidiary, Sparta Crypto, Inc., www.SpartaCrypto.com, was established September 25, 2020 and is in the process of completing
a proprietary state-of-the-art platform designed to connect users of widely adopted digital currencies with sellers of various goods
and services. The platform has not launched and the Company can make no assurances that the described plan will reach implementation.
In addition, the Company has completed and tested a cryptocurrency payment gateway called SpartaPayIQ, www.SpartaPayIQ.com, which
is functional and was formally announced on March 3, 2022.
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of October 31, 2022 and for the six months ended October 31, 2022
and 2021 have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including
Form 10-Q and Regulation S-K. The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and
adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the operating results for the respective periods.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally present in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The Company believes that
the disclosures provided are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
These
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements
and explanatory notes for the year ended April 30, 2022 as disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-K for that year as filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on August 15, 2022. The results of operations for the six months ended October 31, 2022 are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or the full year ending April 30, 2023.
The
condensed consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 2022 contained herein has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements
as of April 30, 2022, but do not include all disclosures required by the U.S. GAAP.
Principles
of Consolidation
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The third-party ownership of the Company’s subsidiary is accounted
for as noncontrolling interest in the consolidated financial statements. Changes in the noncontrolling interest are reported in the statement
of changes in deficit.
Estimates
These
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in United States of America which
require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and the disclosures of
revenues and expenses for the reported period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue
Recognition
During
the first quarter of 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), using the cumulative-effect
method. The new standard requires an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers 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. The adoption did
not have an impact in our consolidated financial statements, other than the enhancement of our disclosures related to our revenue-generating
activities.
The
Company acts as a principal in its revenue transactions as the Company is the primary obligor in the transactions.
Revenues
from mobile app products and New World Health Brands products are generally recognized upon delivery. Revenues from History Reports are
generally recognized upon delivery / download. Prepayments received from customers before delivery (if any) are recognized as deferred
revenue and recognized upon delivery. The Company records deferred revenues when cash payments are received or due in advance of our
performance, including amounts which are refundable.
Cash
Equivalents
For
the purpose of the accompanying financial statements, all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less are considered
to be cash equivalents.
Fair
Value Measurements
The
Company has adopted ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”).” ASC 820 establishes a three-level
fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest
priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets the lowest priority to unobservable inputs to fair value measurements of certain
assets and Liabilities. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described below:
● |
Level
1 — Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 1 assets and liabilities include debt and equity securities
and derivative contracts that are traded in an active exchange market, as well as certain securities that are highly liquid and are
actively traded in over-the-counter markets. |
● |
Level
2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets
that are not active; and model derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in
active markets. |
|
|
● |
Level
3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value measurements.
Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow
methodologies, or similar techniques based on significant unobservable inputs, as well as management judgments or estimates that
are significant to valuation. |
This
hierarchy requires the Company to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining
fair value. For some products or in certain market conditions, observable inputs may not always be available.
Income
Taxes
We
utilize ASC 740 “Income Taxes” which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected
future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income
taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their
financial reporting amounts at year-end based on enacted laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences
are expected to affect taxable income.
The
Company recognizes the impact of a tax position in the financial statements only if that position is more likely than not of being sustained
upon examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Our practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties
related to income tax matters in income tax expense.
Stock
Based Compensation
We
account for our stock-based compensation under ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation” using the fair value
based method. Under this method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over
the service period, which is usually the vesting period. This guidance establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which
an entity exchanges it equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities
in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by
the issuance of those equity instruments.
We
use the fair value method for equity instruments granted to non-employees and use the Black-Scholes model for measuring the fair value
of options. The stock based fair value compensation is determined as of the date of the grant or the date at which the performance of
the services is completed (measurement date) and is recognized over the vesting periods.
Inventories
The
Company’s inventories represent finished goods, consist of products available for sale and are accounted for using the first-in,
first-out (FIFO) method and valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory consists of finished goods for the Company’s
New World Health business.
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment are recorded at cost. Minor additions and renewals are expensed in the year incurred. Major additions and renewals are
capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives. Estimated useful lives of major depreciable assets are as follows:
SCHEDULE OF ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE OF PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
|
|
Leasehold
improvements |
3
years |
Furniture
and fixtures |
7
years |
Website
costs |
3
years |
Computer
Equipment |
5
years |
Concentrations
of Credit Risk
Financial
instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash, cash
equivalents and receivables. The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with high credit quality institutions. At times,
such investments may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit.
Net
Loss Per Share
The
Company uses ASC 260-10, “Earnings Per Share” for calculating the basic and diluted loss per share. The Company computes
basic loss per share by dividing net loss and net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding. Common equivalent shares are excluded from the computation of net loss per share if their effect is anti-dilutive.
As
of October 31, 2022 and 2021, approximately 42,000,000 potential shares (including 11,247,437 and 22,442,105 shares to be issued on the
balance sheet), respectively, were excluded from the shares used to calculate diluted earnings per share as their inclusion would reduce
net loss per share.
Derivative
Liabilities
The
Company assessed the classification of its derivative financial instruments as of October 31, 2022 and April 30, 2022, which consist
of convertible instruments and rights to shares of the Company’s common stock and determined that such derivatives meet the
criteria for liability classification under 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 freestanding derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic
characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and
risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is
not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported
in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered
a derivative instrument 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 described.
Convertible
Instruments
The
Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in its convertible instruments in accordance with professional standards
for “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”.
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 professional standards when “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial
Conversion Features,” as those professional standards pertain to “Certain Convertible Instruments.” Accordingly,
the Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments
based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the
effective conversion price embedded in the note. 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. ASC 815-40 provides that, among other things, generally,
if an event is not within the entity’s control could or require net cash settlement, then the contract shall be classified as an
asset or a liability.
Reclassifications
Certain
reclassifications have been made to conform to prior periods’ data to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no
effect on reported losses.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements-
In
February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02 (Topic 842) “Leases.” Topic 842 supersedes
the lease requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 840, “Leases.” Under Topic 842, lessees are
required to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for most leases and provide enhanced disclosures. Leases will continue
to be classified as either finance or operating. The Company adopted Topic 842 effective May 1, 2019 using a modified retrospective method
and elected not to recognize leases with terms of 12 months or less. Adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the
Company’s consolidated financial statements.
A
variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard setting organizations and various
regulatory agencies. Due to the tentative and preliminary nature of those proposed standards, we have not determined whether implementation
of such proposed standards would be material to our consolidated financial statements.
NOTE
B – GOING CONCERN MATTERS
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the
realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring losses and generated negative cash flows from operating activities
since inception. As of October 31, 2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $70,531,036 and a working capital deficit (total
current liabilities exceeded total current assets) of $15,562,787. The Company’s cash balance and revenues generated are not currently
sufficient and cannot be projected to cover its operating expenses for the next twelve months from the filing date of this report. These
factors among others raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year
from the issuance of these financial statements.
The
Company’s existence is dependent upon management’s ability to develop profitable operations. Management is devoting substantially
all of its efforts to developing its business and raising capital and there can be no assurance that the Company’s efforts will
be successful. No assurance can be given that management’s actions will result in profitable operations or the resolution of its
liquidity problems. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
In
order to improve the Company’s liquidity, the Company’s management is actively pursuing additional equity financing through
discussions with investment bankers and private investors. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its effort
to secure additional equity financing.
NOTE
C – NOTES PAYABLE AND DERIVATIVES
The
Company has outstanding numerous notes payable to various parties. The notes bear interest at rates of 5% - 20% per year and are summarized
as follows:
SCHEDULE OF NOTES PAYABLE

Total | |
$ | 5,412,887 | | |
$ | 5,250,084 | |
Certain
of the notes payable contain variable conversion rates and the conversion features are classified as derivative liabilities. The conversion
prices are based on the market price of the Company’s common stock, at discounts of 30% - 48% to market value.
The
Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of embedded derivatives related to the outstanding short term Convertible
Notes Payable. These embedded derivatives include certain conversion features indexed to the Company’s common stock. The
accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record the derivatives and related items at their
fair values as of the inception date of the Convertible Notes Payable and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. In
addition, under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging; Contracts in
Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC 815-40”), as a result of entering into the Convertible Notes Payable, the Company is
required to classify all other non-employee stock options and warrants as derivative liabilities and mark them to market at each
reporting date. Any change in fair value inclusive of modifications of terms will be recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or
expense at each reporting date. If the fair value of the derivatives is higher at the subsequent balance sheet date, the Company
will record a non-operating, non-cash charge. If the fair value of the derivatives is lower at the subsequent balance sheet date,
the Company will record non-operating, non-cash income. These Notes are subject to a 6 year
Statute of Limitations in which to bring any potential claims.
The
change in fair value of the derivative liabilities at October 31, 2022 was calculated with the following average assumptions, using a
Black-Scholes option pricing model are as follows:

NOTE
F – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The
Company follows the guidance established pursuant to ASC 820 which established a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure
about fair value measurements. ASC 820 defines fair value as the amount that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability
(i.e., an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market
participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of
observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes the following three levels
of inputs that may be used:
Level
1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets and liabilities. The
fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.
Level
2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets but corroborated by market data.
Level
3: Unobservable inputs when there is little or no market data available, thereby requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.
The
table below summarizes the fair values of financial liabilities as of October 31, 2022:

Derivative
liabilities — these instruments consist of certain variable conversion features related to notes payable obligations and certain
outstanding warrants. These instruments were valued using pricing models which incorporate the Company’s stock price, volatility,
U.S. risk free rate, dividend rate and estimated life.
The
Company did not identify any other non-recurring assets and liabilities that are required to be presented in the balance sheets at fair
value in accordance with ASC Topic 825 “The Fair Value Option for Financial Issuances”.

about the potential outcome of such proceedings.
As
of October 31, 2022, we have not been named as parties to any further legal proceedings except as those disclosed prior and as updated
below. From time to time, of course, we may become involved in further legal proceedings, which sometimes arise due to the very nature
of and in the ordinary course of this business.
By
way of background, the Company had received notices dated April 1, 2016, May 13, 2016 and July 22, 2016 from two lenders claiming defaults
relating to conversion requests of $8,365.00 in principal plus interest, attorney fees and $5,000.00 in principal plus interest also
seeking stock conversions aside from the stated principal and interest with regard to notes in the total amounts of $55,125.00 and $27,500.00,
respectively, which the Company has declined to process and believes it has valid, meritorious defenses in that regard. The Company believes
these claims are contingent, unliquidated and disputes same. While there can be no assurances that the Company would prevail in any potential
litigation with regard to claims brought against the Company, these potential liabilities have been recorded in the unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements.
With
respect to the above claims, on September 22, 2016, a motion for summary judgment in lieu of complaint was filed in the Supreme Court
in the State of New York: County of Kings, against the Company by a lender for the amount of $102,170.82 in principal and stock conversion
interest, plus fees and costs. The Plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment in lieu of complaint was denied on May 5, 2017. On August
22, 2018, Plaintiff thereafter brought a second motion seeking summary judgment on the issue of liability which was, again, denied by
the Court on March 14, 2019. The most recent appearance in this matter had been scheduled for March 13, 2020, at which time, the Court
marked the case “adjourned without a date”, due to the restrictions imposed on the Courts arising from the COVID-19 pandemic.
No further Court appearances have been scheduled, to date, in this matter. However, most notably, a favorable decision from the New York
State Court of Appeals regarding the very same types of transactions have since been determined to be criminally usurious and, therefore,
unenforceable. These were the very same defenses raised on behalf of the Company.
On
October 26, 2018, a second lender commenced an action in the Supreme Court of the State of New York: New York County alleging damages
from unpaid principal arising from a promissory note dated February 26, 2015 in the amount of $50,000.00
plus damages including interest and stock conversions,
costs and fees. The Company disputes the enforceability of such claims for the similar reasons, as stated above, based on the Court of
Appeals ruling as to the unenforceable nature of such claims demanding usurious interest rates. The Company expects that the Court
will render a decision on the pending dispositive motions in the next 30 days
