NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial statements and do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. The information furnished reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items which are, in the opinion of management, necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading. The unaudited financial statements for the nine months ending September 30, 2021, are not necessarily indicative of the results for the remainder of the fiscal year. The consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2020, have been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm. The accounting policies and procedures employed in the preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements have been derived from the audited financial statements of Orbsat Corp F/K/A/ Orbital Tracking Corp. (the “Company”) for the year ended December 31, 2020, which are contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 22, 2021. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 was derived from those financial statements.

The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Orbital Satcom Corp. (“Orbital Satcom”) and Global Telesat Communications Limited (“GTC”).

Global Telesat Communications Limited (“GTC”) was formed under the laws of England and Wales in 2008.

Liquidity
As
an early-stage growth company, Orbsat’s ability to access capital is critical. On June 2, 2021, through an upsized underwritten
public offering of units at a price to the public of $per unit, the Company received gross proceeds
of $
In
connection with closing of the June Offering, the Underwriter partially exercised its overallotment option and purchased an additional
As of the date of this report, the Company’s existing cash resources and existing borrowing availability are sufficient to support planned operations for the next 12 months. As a result, management believes that the Company’s existing financial resources are sufficient to continue operating activities for at least one year past the issuance date of the financial statements.
These financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with GAAP and this basis assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Use of Estimates
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the statements of financial condition, and revenues and expenses for the years then ended. Actual results may differ significantly from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to, the assumptions used to calculate stock-based compensation, derivative liabilities and common stock issued for services.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. The Company
places its cash with a high credit quality financial institution. The Company’s account at this institution is insured by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $
Accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts
The
Company has a policy of reserving for questionable accounts based on its best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its
existing accounts receivable. The Company periodically reviews its accounts receivable to determine whether an allowance is necessary
based on an analysis of past due accounts and other factors that may indicate that the realization of an account may be in doubt. Account
balances deemed to be uncollectible are offset against sales and relieved from accounts receivable, after all means of collection have
been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. As of September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, there is
an allowance for doubtful accounts of $

Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, using the first-in first-out cost method. The Company assesses the valuation of its inventories and reduces the carrying value of those inventories that are obsolete or in excess of the Company’s forecasted usage to their estimated net realizable value. The Company estimates the net realizable value of such inventories based on analysis and assumptions including, but not limited to, historical usage, expected future demand and market requirements. A change to the carrying value of inventories is recorded to cost of goods sold.
Prepaid expenses
Prepaid
expenses amounted to $
Foreign Currency Translation
The Company’s reporting currency is U.S. Dollars. The accounts of one of the Company’s subsidiaries, GTC, is maintained using the appropriate local currency, Great British Pound, as the functional currency. All assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. Dollars at balance sheet date, shareholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and revenue and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rate for the year or the reporting period. The translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, captioned as accumulated other comprehensive (loss) gain. Transaction gains and losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the statements of operations.
The
relevant translation rates are as follows: for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, closing rate at
Revenue Recognition and Unearned Revenue
The Company recognizes revenue from satellite services when earned, as services are rendered or delivered to customers. Equipment sales revenue is recognized when the equipment is delivered to and accepted by the customer. Only equipment sales are subject to warranty. Historically, the Company has not incurred significant expenses for warranties. Equipment sales which have been prepaid, before the goods are shipped are recorded as contract liabilities and once shipped is recognized as revenue. The Company also records as contract liabilities, certain annual plans for airtime, which are paid in advance. Once airtime services are incurred, they are recognized as revenue. Unbilled revenue is recognized for airtime plans whereby the customer is invoiced for its data usage the following month after services are incurred.
The Company’s customers generally purchase a combination of our products and services as part of a multiple element arrangement. The Company’s assessment of which revenue recognition guidance is appropriate to account for each element in an arrangement can involve significant judgment. This assessment has a significant impact on the amount and timing of revenue recognition.

ORBSAT CORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
FKA: ORBITAL TRACKING CORP.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of ASC 606, we perform the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy a performance obligation. The five-step model is applied to contracts when it is probable that we will collect the consideration we are entitled to in exchange for the goods or services transferred to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, we assess the goods or services promised within each contract and determine those that are performance obligations and assess whether each promised good or service is distinct. We then recognize revenue in the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.
In accordance with ASU No. 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedient, which is to (1) clarify the objective of the collectability criterion for applying paragraph 606-10-25-7; (2) permit an entity to exclude amounts collected from customers for all sales (and other similar) taxes from the transaction price; (3) specify that the measurement date for noncash consideration is contract inception; (4) provide a practical expedient that permits an entity to reflect the aggregate effect of all modifications that occur before the beginning of the earliest period presented when identifying the satisfied and unsatisfied performance obligations, determining the transaction price, and allocating the transaction price to the satisfied and unsatisfied performance obligations; (5) clarify that a completed contract for purposes of transition is a contract for which all (or substantially all) of the revenue was recognized under legacy GAAP before the date of initial application, and (6) clarify that an entity that retrospectively applies the guidance in Topic 606 to each prior reporting period is not required to disclose the effect of the accounting change for the period of adoption. The amendments of this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. There was no impact as a result of adopting this ASU on the financial statements and related disclosures. Based on the terms and conditions of the product arrangements, the Company believes that its products and services can be accounted for separately as its products and services have value to the Company’s customers on a stand-alone basis. When a transaction involves more than one product or service, revenue is allocated to each deliverable based on its relative fair value; otherwise, revenue is recognized as products are delivered or as services are provided over the term of the customer contract.
Contract
liabilities is shown separately in the unaudited consolidated balance sheets as current liabilities. At September 30, 2021 and December
31, 2020, we had contract liabilities of $
Cost of Product Sales and Services
Cost of sales consists primarily of materials, airtime and overhead costs incurred internally and amounts incurred to contract manufacturers to produce our products, airtime and other implementation costs incurred to install our products and train customer personnel, and customer service and third-party original equipment manufacturer costs to provide continuing support to our customers. There are certain costs which are deferred and recorded as prepaids, until such revenue is recognized. Refer to revenue recognition above as to what constitutes deferred revenue.
Shipping and handling costs are included as a component of costs of product sales in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations because the Company includes in revenue the related costs that the Company bills its customers.
Intangible assets
Intangible
assets include customer contracts purchased and recorded based on the cost to acquire them. These assets are amortized over
Goodwill and other intangible assets
In accordance with ASC 350-30-65, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Others”, the Company assesses the impairment of identifiable intangibles whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.
Factors the Company considers to be important which could trigger an impairment review include the following:
● | Significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results; | |
● | Significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the overall business; and | |
● | Significant negative industry or economic trends. |
When
the Company determines that the carrying value of intangibles may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above
indicators of impairment and the carrying value of the asset cannot be recovered from projected undiscounted cash flows, the Company
records an impairment charge. The Company measures any impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate
determined by management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in the current business model. Significant management judgment is
required in determining whether an indicator of impairment exists and in projecting cash flows. The Company recorded an impairment charge

Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are carried at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is based on the estimated service lives of the depreciable assets and is calculated using the straight-line method. Expenditures that increase the value or productive capacity of assets are capitalized. Fully depreciated assets are retained in the property and equipment, and accumulated depreciation accounts until they are removed from service. When property and equipment are retired, sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset’s carrying amount and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in operations. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.
The estimated useful lives of property and equipment are generally as follows:
Years | ||
Office furniture and fixtures | ||
Computer equipment | ||
Rental equipment | ||
Appliques | ||

Depreciation

Impairment of long-lived assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value. The Company did not consider it necessary to record any impairment charges during the periods ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively.
Accounting for Derivative Instruments
Derivatives are required to be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. These derivatives, including embedded derivatives in the Company’s structured borrowings, are separately valued and accounted for on the Company’s balance sheet. Fair values for exchange traded securities and derivatives are based on quoted market prices. Where market prices are not readily available, fair values are determined using market-based pricing models incorporating readily observable market data and requiring judgment and estimates.
The Company did not identify any assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value in accordance with the accounting guidance. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their estimated fair market value based on the short-term maturity of the instruments.

The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.
Pursuant to ASC Topic 718, for share-based payments to consultants and other third-parties, compensation expense is determined at the “measurement date.” The expense is recognized over the vesting period of the award. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. The Company initially records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date. Further, ASC Topic 718, provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718, such as the repricing of share options, which would revalue those options and the accounting for the cancellation of an equity award whether a replacement award or other valuable consideration is issued in conjunction with the cancellation. If not, the cancellation is viewed as a replacement and not a modification, with a repurchase price of $ .
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provision of ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASC 740-10”) which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach require the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized.
The Company follows the provision of ASC 740-10 related to Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions. When tax returns are filed, there may be uncertainty about the merits of positions taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions.
Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold is measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefit associated with tax positions taken that exceed the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for uncertain tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination.
The Company believes its tax positions are all more likely than not to be upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for uncertain tax benefits.
The Company has adopted ASC 740-10-25, “Definition of Settlement,” which provides guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits and provides that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion and examination by a taxing authority without being legally extinguished. For tax positions considered effectively settled, an entity would recognize the full amount of tax benefit, even if the tax position is not considered more likely than not to be sustained based solely on the basis of its technical merits and the statute of limitations remains open. The federal and state income tax returns of the Company are subject to examination by the IRS and state taxing authorities, generally for three years after they are filed.
Leases
Effective January 1, 2019, the Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842, Leases. Under this guidance, arrangements meeting the definition of a lease are classified as operating or financing leases, and are recorded on the consolidated balance sheet as both a right of use asset and lease liability, calculated by discounting fixed lease payments over the lease term at the rate implicit in the lease or the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are increased by interest and reduced by payments each period, and the right of use asset is amortized over the lease term. For operating leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the right of use asset result in straight-line rent expense over the lease term. For finance leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the right of use asset results in front-loaded expense over the lease term. Variable lease expenses are recorded when incurred.
In calculating the right of use asset and lease liability, the Company has elected to combine lease and non-lease components. The Company excludes short-term leases having initial terms of 12 months or less from the new guidance as an accounting policy election and recognizes rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The Company continues to account for leases in the prior period financial statements under ASC Topic 840.

sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 with ASU No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for
Transition to Topic 842; ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases; and ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted Improvements.
The new standard establishes a right-of-use model (ROU) that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the
balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification
affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard was effective for us on January

NOTE 14 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
COVID-19
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a global pandemic prompting government-imposed quarantines, suspension of in-person attendance of academic programs, and cessation of certain travel and business closures. The United States has entered a recession as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which may prolong and exacerbate the negative impact on us. Although we expect the availability of vaccines and various treatments with respect to COVID-19 to have an overall positive impact on business conditions in the aggregate over time, the exact timing of these positive developments is uncertain. In December 2020, the United States began distributing two vaccines that, in addition to other vaccines under development, are expected to help to reduce the spread of the coronavirus that causes COVID-19 once they are widely distributed. If the vaccines prove less effective than currently understood by the scientific community and the United States Food and Drug Administration, or if there are problems with the acceptance, availability, timing or other difficulties with widely distributing the vaccines, the pandemic may last longer, and could continue to impact our business for longer, than we currently expect. In response to COVID-19, governmental authorities have implemented numerous measures to try to contain the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, prohibitions on group events and gatherings, shutdowns of certain businesses, curfews, shelter in place orders and recommendations to practice social distancing. Although many governmental measures have had specific expiration dates, some of those measures have already been extended more than once, and there is considerable uncertainty regarding the duration of such measures and the implementation of any potential future measures, especially if cases increase again across the United States, with the potential for additional challenges resulting from the emergence of new variants of COVID-19, some of which may be more transmissible than the initial strain. Such measures have impacted, and may continue to affect, our workforce, operations, suppliers and customers. We reduced the size of our workforce following the onset of COVID-19 and may need to take additional actions to further reduce the size of our workforce in the future; such reductions incur costs, and we can provide no assurance that we will be able to rehire our workforce in the event our business experiences a subsequent recovery. We took steps to curtail our operating expenses and conserve cash. We may elect or need to take additional remedial measures in the future as the information available to us continues to develop, including with respect to our workforce, relationships with our third-party vendors, and our customers. There is no certainty that the remedial measures we have implemented to date, or any additional remedial steps we may take in the future, will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by COVID-19. Further, such measures could potentially materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations and create additional risks for us. Any escalation of COVID-19 cases across many of the markets we serve could have a negative impact on us. Specifically, we could be adversely impacted by limitations on our employees to perform their work due to illness caused by the pandemic or local, state, or federal orders requiring our stores to close or employees to remain at home; limitation of carriers to deliver our product to customers; product shortages; limitations on the ability of our customers to conduct their business and purchase our products and services; and limitations on the ability of our customers to pay us in a timely manner. These events could have a material, adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and liquidity.
The ultimate magnitude of COVID-19, including the full extent of the material negative impact on our financial and operational results, will depend on future developments. The resumption of our normal business operations may be delayed or constrained by lingering effects of COVID-19 on our customers, suppliers and/or third-party service providers. Furthermore, the extent to which our mitigation efforts are successful, if at all, is not currently ascertainable. Due to the daily evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic and the responses to curb its spread, we cannot predict the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and results of operations, but our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows have already been materially adversely impacted, and we anticipate they will continue to be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and its negative effects on global economic conditions. Any recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and related economic impact may also be slowed or reversed by a variety of factors, such as any increase in COVID-19 infections. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided, we may continue to experience adverse impacts to our business as a result of its national and, to some extent, global economic impact, including the current recession and any recession that may occur in the future.
The success of our business depends on our global operations, including our supply chain and consumer demand, among other things. As a result of COVID-19, we have experienced shortages in inventory due to manufacturing issues, a reduction in the volume of sales in some parts of our business, such as rental sales and direct website sales, and a reduction in personnel due to lockdown related issues. Our results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2020, reflect this impact; however, we expect that this trend may continue, and the full extent of the impact is unknown. In recent months, some governmental agencies in the US and Europe, where we produce the largest percentage of our sales, have lifted certain restrictions. However, if customer demand continues to be low, our future equipment sales, subscriber activations and sales margin will be impacted.

Litigation
On June 22, 2021, Thomas Seifert’s employment as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer was terminated for cause. Mr. Seifert asserts that the termination was not for cause and that he is owed all compensation payable under his employment agreement executed in June 2021. The Company’s position is that Mr. Seifert is not owed any additional consideration or compensation relating to his prior service with the Company, or arising under any employment agreement. Further, the Company asserts that Mr. Seifert engaged in misconduct during his tenure as the Company’s CFO. Mr. Seifert’s employment as Chief Financial Officer has resulted in two lawsuits.
The Company initiated litigation against Mr. Seifert on June 28, 2021 in the Eleventh Judicial Circuit Court in and for Miami-Dade County. The parties to the suit are Orbsat Corp. and Thomas Seifert. The matter was designated Case No.: 2021-15243 CA 01. The Company’s case against Mr. Seifert is now pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida, which matter is designated Case No.: 1:21-cv-22436-DPG. The Company seeks damages under several legal theories, including breach of fiduciary duty, breach of an employment agreement, fraud in the inducement, fraudulent misrepresentation, and constructive fraud. The Company does not expect to obtain substantial monetary relief in its litigation against Mr. Seifert.
On July 2, 2021, Mr. Seifert filed suit against the Company in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida. The parties to the suit are Thomas Seifert, Orbsat Corp. and Charles Fernandez, Orbsat’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The matter is designated Case No.: 1:21-cv-22410-MGC. Mr. Seifert seeks damages under several legal theories, including breach of an employment agreement, retaliatory discharge, libel per se, and negligent misrepresentation. The Company believes it has adequate defenses to defeat Mr. Seifert’s claims.
From time to time, the Company may become involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. The Company is not currently involved in any pending legal proceeding or litigation and, to the best of our knowledge, no governmental authority is contemplating any proceeding to which the Company is a party or to which any of the Company’s properties is subject, which would reasonably be likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and operating results.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following information should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report. Statements made in this Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Plan of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q that do not consist of historical facts, are “forward-looking statements.” Statements accompanied or qualified by, or containing words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “projects,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “outlook,” “forecast,” “anticipates,” “presume,” and “assume” constitute forward-looking statements, and as such, are not a guarantee of future performance. The statements involve factors, risks and uncertainties, the impact or occurrence of which can cause actual results to differ materially from the expected results described in such statements. Risks and uncertainties can include, among others, fluctuations in general business cycles and changing economic conditions; changing product demand and industry capacity; increased competition and pricing pressures; advances in technology that can reduce the demand for the Company’s products, as well as other factors, many or all of which may be beyond the Company’s control. Consequently, investors should not place undue reliance upon forward-looking statements as predictive of future results. The Company disclaims any obligation to update the forward-looking statements in this report.
You should read the following information in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes contained elsewhere in this report. You should consider the risks and difficulties frequently encountered by early-stage companies, particularly those engaged in new and rapidly evolving markets and technologies. Our limited operating history provides only a limited historical basis to assess the impact that critical accounting policies may have on our business and our financial performance.
We encourage you to review our periodic reports filed with the SEC and included in the SEC’s EDGAR database, including the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on March 22, 2021, and the Company’s subsequent public filings with the SEC.
Corporate Information
We are a provider of satellite-based hardware, airtime and related services both in the United States and internationally. We sell equipment and airtime for use on all of the major satellite networks including Globalstar, Inmarsat, Iridium and Thuraya and operate a short-term rental service for customers who desire to use our equipment for a limited time period. Our acquisition of GTC in February 2015 expanded our global satellite-based infrastructure and business, which was first launched in December 2014 through the purchase of certain contracts.
COVID-19 Update
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a global pandemic prompting government-imposed quarantines, suspension of in-person attendance of academic programs, and cessation of certain travel and business closures. The United States has entered a recession as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which may prolong and exacerbate the negative impact on us. Although we expect the availability of vaccines and various treatments with respect to COVID-19 to have an overall positive impact on business conditions in the aggregate over time, the exact timing of these positive developments is uncertain. In December 2020, the United States began distributing two vaccines that, in addition to other vaccines under development, are expected to help to reduce the spread of the coronavirus that causes COVID-19 once they are widely distributed. If the vaccines prove less effective than currently understood by the scientific community and the United States Food and Drug Administration, or if there are problems with the acceptance, availability, timing or other difficulties with widely distributing the vaccines, the pandemic may last longer, and could continue to impact our business for longer, than we currently expect. In response to COVID-19, governmental authorities have implemented numerous measures to try to contain the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, prohibitions on group events and gatherings, shutdowns of certain businesses, curfews, shelter in place orders and recommendations to practice social distancing. Although many governmental measures have had specific expiration dates, some of those measures have already been extended more than once, and there is considerable uncertainty regarding the duration of such measures and the implementation of any potential future measures, especially if cases increase across the United States, with the potential for additional challenges resulting from the emergence of new variants of COVID-19, some of which may be more transmissible than the initial strain. Such measures have impacted, and may continue to affect, our workforce, operations, suppliers and customers. We reduced the size of our workforce following the onset of COVID-19 and may need to take additional actions to further reduce the size of our workforce in the future; such reductions incur costs, and we can provide no assurance that we will be able to rehire our workforce in the event our business experiences a subsequent recovery. We took steps to curtail our operating expenses and conserve cash. We may elect or need to take additional remedial measures in the future as the information available to us continues to develop, including with respect to our workforce, relationships with our third-party vendors, and our customers. There is no certainty that the remedial measures we have implemented to date, or any additional remedial steps we may take in the future, will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by COVID-19. Further, such measures could potentially materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations and create additional risks for us. Any escalation of COVID-19 cases across many of the markets we serve could have a negative impact on us. Specifically, we could be adversely impacted by limitations on our employees to perform their work due to illness caused by the pandemic or local, state, or federal orders requiring our stores to close or employees to remain at home; limitation of carriers to deliver our product to customers; product shortages; limitations on the ability of our customers to conduct their business and purchase our products and services; and limitations on the ability of our customers to pay us in a timely manner. These events could have a material, adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and liquidity.
30 |
The ultimate magnitude of COVID-19, including the full extent of the material negative impact on our financial and operational results, will depend on future developments, such as the duration and severity of the pandemic, the extent of any additional increases in cases across the United States, and the related length of its impact on the global economy, as well as the timing and availability of effective medical treatments and vaccines, which remain uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time. The resumption of our normal business operations may be delayed or constrained by lingering effects of COVID-19 on our customers, suppliers and/or third-party service providers. Furthermore, the extent to which our mitigation efforts are successful, if at all, is not currently ascertainable. Due to the daily evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic and the responses to curb its spread, we cannot predict the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and results of operations, but our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows have already been materially adversely impacted, and we anticipate they will continue to be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and its negative effects on global economic conditions. Any recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and related economic impact may also be slowed or reversed by a variety of factors, such as any increase in COVID-19 infections. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided, we may continue to experience adverse impacts to our business as a result of its national and, to some extent, global economic impact, including the current recession and any recession that may occur in the future.
The success of our business depends on our global operations, including our supply chain and consumer demand, among other things. As a result of COVID-19, we have experienced shortages in inventory due to manufacturing issues, a reduction in the volume of sales in some parts of our business, such as rental sales and direct website sales, and a reduction in personnel due to lockdown related issues. Our results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020 reflect this impact; however, we expect that this trend may continue and the full extent of the impact is unknown. In recent months, some governmental agencies in the US and Europe, where we produce the largest percentage of our sales, have lifted certain restrictions. However, if customer demand continues to be low, our future equipment sales, subscriber activations and sales margin will be impacted. We have implemented several measures to minimize the impact on our operations and sustain our liquidity position, including receiving support through the US payroll protection program loan (“PPP”), a low interest, fixed rate loan provided under the UK’s Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan (“CBILS”) and the deferral of certain UK taxes.
Recent Events
Reverse Stock Split
On March 24, 2021, the Company’s shareholders via majority shareholder consent authorized a stock split not to exceed 1 for 5 reverse stock split.

June Public Offering
On May 28, 2021, Company, entered into an Underwriting Agreement with Maxim Group LLC (the “Underwriter”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Underwriter in an underwritten public offering (the June Offering) 2,880,000 units consisting of one share of common stock and one warrant exercisable for one share of common stock at a public offering price of $5.00 per unit (after giving effect to a 1-for-5 reverse stock split, discussed above) for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $14,400,000 before deducting underwriting discounts, commissions, and other offering expenses. The common stock and warrants were immediately separable and were issued separately. The common stock and warrants began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market, on May 28, 2021, under the symbols “OSAT” and “OSATW,” respectively. In addition, the Company granted the Underwriter a 45-day option to purchase an additional 432,000 shares of common stock and/or warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 432,000 shares of common stock, in any combination thereof, at the public offering price per security, less the underwriting discounts and commissions, to cover over-allotments, if any. The June Offering closed on June 2, 2021.
In connection with closing of the June Offering, the Underwriter partially exercised its overallotment option and purchased an additional 432,000 warrants at $0.01 per warrant for additional gross proceeds to the Company of $4,320. On June 28, 2021, the Underwriter, upon the exercise in full of the balance of its over-allotment option, purchased 432,000 additional shares of the common stock for additional gross proceeds to the Company of $2,155,680.
We have issued to the Underwriter warrants to purchase up to a total of 144,000 shares of common stock (5% of the shares of common stock included in the Units, excluding the over-allotment, if any) (the “Underwriter Warrants”). The Underwriter Warrants are exercisable at any time, and from time to time, in whole or in part, during the period commencing 180 days from the effective date of the registration statement, and expire five years from the effective date of the offering, which period is in compliance with FINRA Rule 5110(e). The Underwriter Warrants are exercisable at a per share price equal to $5.50 per share, or 110% of the public offering price per unit in the offering. The Underwriter Warrants have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a 180-day lock-up pursuant to Rule 5110(e)(1) of FINRA. The underwriter (or permitted assignees under Rule 5110(e)(2)) will not sell, transfer, assign, pledge, or hypothecate these warrants or the securities underlying these warrants, nor will they engage in any hedging, short sale, derivative, put, or call transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of the warrants or the underlying securities for a period of 180 days from the effective date of the registration statement. In addition, the warrants provide for certain piggyback registration rights. The piggyback registration rights provided will not be greater than five years from the effective date of the registration statement in compliance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(8). We will bear all fees and expenses attendant to registering the securities issuable on exercise of the Underwriter Warrants. The exercise price and number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Underwriter Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, extraordinary cash dividend or our recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrant exercise price or underlying shares will not be adjusted for issuances of shares of common stock at a price below the warrant exercise price.
Agreement with Alibaba
On July 13, 2021, the Company announced that its Global Telesat Communications Limited (“GTC”) unit had entered into an agreement with Alibaba.com, the B2B (Business-to-Business) e-commerce website owned and operated by Alibaba Group Holding Limited, also known as Alibaba Group (NYSE: BABA; HKEX: 9988), a Chinese multinational technology company specializing in e-commerce, retail, internet, and technology. GTC will be a Gold-level Supplier on Alibaba.com, the world’s largest Business-to-Business (B2B) e-commerce website.
Under the agreement, GTC significantly expands its 24/7/365 e-commerce presence with the launch of its latest global storefront.

We anticipate that approximately 40% of the cost will be expensed in the period incurred and 60% will be capitalized and depreciated over its useful life.
Results of Operations for the Three and Nine months Ended September 30, 2021, compared to the Three and Nine months Ended September 30, 2020
Revenue. Net Sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, consisted primarily of sales of satellite phones, tracking devices, accessories and airtime plans. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, revenues generated were $5,667,966 compared to $4,163,750 of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, an increase in total revenues of $1,504,216 or 36.1%. Total net sales for Global Telesat Communications Limited were $3,897,254 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to $2,667,144 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $1,230,110 or 46.1%. Total net sales for Orbital Satcom Corp. were $1,770,712 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to $1,496,606, for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $274,106 or 18.3%. The Company attributes the changes in revenue to new product lines and significant increases in US Amazon sales, offset by the change in exchange rates from GBP:USD.
Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2021, consisted primarily of sales of satellite phones, tracking devices, accessories and airtime plans. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, revenues generated were $2,250,278 compared to $1,475,393 of revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2020, an increase in total revenues of $774,885 or 52.5%. Total net sales for Global Telesat Communications Limited. were $1,498,341 for the three months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to $1,003,875 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $494,466 or 49.3%. Total net sales for Orbital Satcom Corp. were $751,937 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to $471,518, for the three months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $280,419 or 59.5%.

Cost of Sales. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, cost of sales increased to $4,195,823 compared to $3,159,593, for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $1,036,230 or 32.8%. Gross profit margins during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were 26.0% as compared to 24.1% for the comparable period in the prior year. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, cost of sales increased to $1,757,142 compared to $1,076,929, for the three months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $680,213 or 63.2%. Gross profit margins during the three months ended September 30, 2021, were 21.9% as compared to 27.0% for the comparable period in the prior year. As indicated by the results for the three and nine months, our sales margins have (decreased) increased by (5.1%) and 1.9%, respectively. However, we cannot be certain that we can maintain the increased margin levels. The increase is primarily due to a greater percentage of high margin sales in the second quarter ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, as well to as an increase in margins on certain sales that resulted from customers bearing value added tax (VAT) that was previously borne by the Company.
Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were $4,557,254, an increase of $2,698,242 or 145.14%, from total operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 of $1,859,012. Total operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2021 were $2,729,982, an increase of $1,857,147or 212.77%, from total operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2020 of $872,835. Factors contributing to the decrease are described below.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $962,892 and $486,984 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $475,908 or 97.73%. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $519,196 and $182,813 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $336,383 or 184.00%. The increase, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, is attributable to certain variable expenses which are related to increase in sales such bank charges, credit card fees, Amazon fees, and shipping charges that fluctuate with sales volatility, in combination with increased travel, medical and director and officer insurance and auto expenses related to the increase in personnel, in addition to marketing and information technology expenses related to growth.
Salaries, wages and payroll taxes were $1,178,267 and $542,675 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $635,592, or 117.12%. Salaries, wages and payroll taxes were $490,555 and $196,629 for the three months ended September 30, 2021, and 2020, respectively, an increase of $293,926, or 149.48%. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the increase is attributable to an increase in officers from two to six and an increase in overall personnel to support growth, as well as board approved executive bonuses related to successful up-listing to Nasdaq for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Stock based compensation were $1,321,564 and $130,400 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $1,191,164, or 913.47%. The increase is directly related to employment agreements for two additional officers, during the three months ended September 30, 2021.
Professional fees were $869,127 and $480,961 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $388,166, or 80.71%. Professional fees were $320,211 and $289,296 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $30,915, or 10.7%. The increase during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020, is attributable to an increase in board members, increased investor relations and other professional fees to assist in capital raising efforts as well as up-listing to Nasdaq.
Depreciation and amortization expenses were $225,404 and $217,992 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $7,412 or 3.40%. Depreciation and amortization expenses were $78,456 and $73,697 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $4,759 or 6.45%. The increase was primarily attributable to the addition of fixed assets offset by fully amortized assets, as compared to the same period in the prior year.
We expect our expenses in each of these areas to continue to increase during fiscal 2021 and beyond as we expand our operations and begin generating additional revenues under our current business. Similarly, we are unable at this time to estimate the amount of the expected increases.
Total Other (Income) Expense. Our total other expense (income) were $1,481,974 compared to $503,890 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $978,084 or 194.11%. The increase in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the prior year, is attributable to; increases in interest expense of $666,179, interest earned of $3,066 and exchange rate fluctuations of $34,749 and decreases in gain from extinguishment of debt of $248,429 and other income of $31,793.
Our total other expense was $68,703 compared to $626,080 during the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease of $557,377 for the three months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the prior year, is attributable to a decrease in interest expense $639,075, an increase of exchange rate fluctuations of $84,509, offset by interest earned of $3,079.
Net Loss. We recorded net loss before income tax of $2,305,549 and $4,567,085 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to a net loss of $1,100,451 and $1,358,745, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. The increase in the loss is a result of the factors as described above.
34 |
Comprehensive Income (Loss). We recorded a gain for foreign currency translation adjustments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 of $55,584 and $42,850. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 we recorded a gain of $5,602 and a loss of $19,840.
Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. At September 30, 2021, we had a cash balance of $17,138,644. Our working capital is a positive $17,768,275 at September 30, 2021.
Our current assets at September 30, 2021 increased $17,640,784 or 1,285% from December 31, 2020 and included cash, accounts receivable, VAT receivable, prepaid expenses, unbilled revenue, inventory and other current assets.
Our current liabilities at September 30, 2021 decreased $271,549 or 18% from December 31, 2020 and included our accounts payable, due to related party, provision for income taxes, contract liabilities, lease liabilities and other liabilities in the ordinary course of our business.
At September 30, 2021, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $18,445,638, positive working capital of approximately $17,768,275 and net loss of approximately $4,567,085 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the auditors’ opinion contained a going concern paragraph, which stated that the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,878,553, negative working capital of $144,055 and net loss of $2,763,375, during the year ended December 31, 2020. As of the date of this report, the Company’s existing cash resources and existing borrowing availability are sufficient to support planned operations for the next 12 months. As a result, management believes that the Company’s existing financial resources are sufficient to continue operating activities for at least one year past the issuance date of the financial statements.
These financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with GAAP and this basis assumes that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Critical accounting estimates are those that management deems to be most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations, and that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, due to the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. We have identified our critical accounting estimates which are discussed below.
Use of Estimates
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the statements of financial condition, and revenues and expenses for the years then ended. Actual results may differ significantly from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to, the assumptions used to calculate stock-based compensation, derivative liabilities and common stock issued for services.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Orbital Satcom Corp. and Global Telesat Communications Ltd. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
36 |
Accounts Receivable
The Company has a policy of reserving for questionable accounts based on its best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company periodically reviews its accounts receivable to determine whether an allowance is necessary based on an analysis of past due accounts and other factors that may indicate that the realization of an account may be in doubt. Account balances deemed to be uncollectible are offset against sales and relieved from accounts receivable, after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. As of September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, there is an allowance for doubtful accounts of $15,782 and $15,596, respectively.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, using the first-in first-out cost method. The Company assesses the valuation of its inventories and reduces the carrying value of those inventories that are obsolete or in excess of the Company’s forecasted usage to their estimated net realizable value. The Company estimates the net realizable value of such inventories based on analysis and assumptions including, but not limited to, historical usage, expected future demand and market requirements. A change to the carrying value of inventories is recorded to cost of goods sold.
Research and Development
The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 730-10, Research and Development (“ASC 730-10”). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Third-party research and development costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved. Company-sponsored research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, there were no additional expenditures on research and development.
Foreign Currency Translation
The Company’s reporting currency is U.S. Dollars. The accounts of one of the Company’s subsidiaries, GTC, is maintained using the appropriate local currency, Great British Pound, as the functional currency. All assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. Dollars at balance sheet date, shareholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and revenue and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rate for the year or the reporting period. The translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, captioned as accumulated other comprehensive (loss) gain. Transaction gains and losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the statements of operations.
The relevant translation rates are as follows: for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, closing rate at 1.342642 US$: GBP, quarterly average rate at 1.3784972 US$: GBP and yearly average rate at 1.3853499 US$: GBP, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, closing rate at 1.2923 US$: GBP, quarterly average rate at 1.293173 US$: GBP and yearly average rate of 1.271713. For the year ended December 31, 2020 closing rate at 1.260983 US$: GBP, average rate at 1.260983 US$: GBP.
Revenue Recognition and Unearned Revenue
The Company recognizes revenue from satellite services when earned, as services are rendered or delivered to customers. Equipment sales revenue is recognized when the equipment is delivered to and accepted by the customer. Only equipment sales are subject to warranty. Historically, the Company has not incurred significant expenses for warranties.
The Company’s customers generally purchase a combination of our products and services as part of a multiple element arrangement. The Company’s assessment of which revenue recognition guidance is appropriate to account for each element in an arrangement can involve significant judgment. This assessment has a significant impact on the amount and timing of revenue recognition.
37 |
The Company recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of ASC 606, we perform the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy a performance obligation. The five-step model is applied to contracts when it is probable that we will collect the consideration we are entitled to in exchange for the goods or services transferred to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, we assess the goods or services promised within each contract and determine those that are performance obligations and assess whether each promised good or service is distinct. We then recognize revenue in the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.
We recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, : Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedient, which is to (1) clarify the objective of the collectability criterion for applying paragraph 606-10-25-7; (2) permit an entity to exclude amounts collected from customers for all sales (and other similar) taxes from the transaction price; (3) specify that the measurement date for noncash consideration is contract inception; (4) provide a practical expedient that permits an entity to reflect the aggregate effect of all modifications that occur before the beginning of the earliest period presented when identifying the satisfied and unsatisfied performance obligations, determining the transaction price, and allocating the transaction price to the satisfied and unsatisfied performance obligations; (5) clarify that a completed contract for purposes of transition is a contract for which all (or substantially all) of the revenue was recognized under legacy GAAP before the date of initial application, and (6) clarify that an entity that retrospectively applies the guidance in Topic 606 to each prior reporting period is not required to disclose the effect of the accounting change for the period of adoption. The amendments of this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. There was no impact as a result of adopting this ASU on the financial statements and related disclosures.
The Company provides product warranties with varying lengths of time and terms. The product warranties are considered to be assurance-type in nature and do not cover anything beyond ensuring that the product is functioning as intended. Based on the guidance in ASC 606, assurance-type warranties do not represent separate performance obligations. The Company also sells separately priced maintenance service contracts which qualify as service-type warranties and represent separate performance obligations. The Company has historically experienced a low rate of product returns under the warranty program.
A variety of technical services can be contracted by our customers for a designated period of time. The service contracts allow customers to call the Company for technical support, replace defective parts and to have onsite service provided by the Company’s third-party contract service provider. The Company records revenues for contract services at the amount of the service contract, but such amount is deferred at the beginning of the service term and amortized prorated over the life of the contract.
The Company believes that its products and services can be accounted for separately as its products and services have value to the Company’s customers on a stand-alone basis. When a transaction involves more than one product or service, revenue is allocated to each deliverable based on its relative fair value; otherwise, revenue is recognized as products are delivered or as services are provided over the term of the customer contract.
Contract liabilities is shown separately in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as current liabilities. At September 30, 2021, we had contract liabilities of approximately $40,956. At December 31, 2020, we had contract liabilities of approximately $36,704.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are carried at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is based on the estimated service lives of the depreciable assets and is calculated using the straight-line method. Expenditures that increase the value or productive capacity of assets are capitalized. Fully depreciated assets are retained in the property and equipment, and accumulated depreciation accounts until they are removed from service. When property and equipment are retired, sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset’s carrying amount and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in operations. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.
38 |
The estimated useful lives of property and equipment are generally as follows:
Years | ||||
Office furniture and fixtures | 4 | |||
Computer equipment | 4 | |||
Rental equipment | 4 | |||
Appliques | 10 | |||
Website development | 2 |
Impairment of long-lived assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value. The Company did not consider it necessary to record any impairment charges during the periods ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
Fair value of financial instruments
The Company adopted FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC 820 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to existing US GAAP that require the use of fair value measurements which establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements.
ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, ASC 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized below:
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions.
The Company did not identify any other assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value in accordance with the accounting guidance. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their estimated fair market value based on the short-term maturity of the instruments.
Share-Based Payments
Compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions are recognized in the financial statements. The cost is measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity award).

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2018, the FASB amended Topic 842, Leases, by issuing ASU No. 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize leases on-balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 with ASU No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842; ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases; and ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted Improvements. The new standard establishes a right-of-use model (ROU) that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard was effective for us on January 1, 2019, however the Company did not have any leases that met the criteria as established above, until July 24, 2019, when the Company entered into a three-year lease for its UK office and warehouse for annual rent of £25,536 or GBP: USD using exchange rate close for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, for liability of 1.3828 or $35,311. An entity may choose to use either (1) its effective date or (2) the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements as its date of initial application. If an entity chooses the second option, the transition requirements for existing leases also apply to leases entered into between the date of initial application and the effective date. The entity must also recast its comparative period financial statements and provide the disclosures required by the new standard for the comparative periods. Consequently, financial information will not be updated, and the disclosures required under the new standard will not be provided for dates and periods before January 1, 2019.
At September 30, 2021, the Company had current and long-term operating lease liabilities of $27,801 and $0, respectively, and right of use assets of $30,658.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, we conducted an evaluation, as of September 30, 2021, of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon our evaluation, our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has concluded that, as of September 30, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to our limited internal audit functions and lack of ability to have multiple levels of transaction review.
The Company intends to address the foregoing deficiency by upgrading its accounting software to an ERP (“Enterprise Resource Planning”), a cloud-based solution, which would add the necessary controls to manage day to day activities such as accounting, procurement, project management, risk management and compliance as well as to automate the consolidation process of its entities, adding a level of reliability to the Company’s financial reporting. The Company proposes to add personnel to address the lack of ability to have multiple level transaction review. Management is addressing these steps immediately and has executed an agreement on August 11, 2021, to start implementation of replacing its current software to an ERP cloud-based solution. Management anticipates the new ERP solution to be fully operational by the second quarter of 2022.
Changes in Internal Controls
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
