FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements” for the purposes of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “plan”, “may”, “will”, “expect”, “intend”, “anticipate”, believe”, “estimate” and “continue” or similar words. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts, and include, but are not limited to:

●

statements regarding our products and services, including:

	o	our digital watermarking technology and Cloud-based document protection system;
	o	our data privacy and data protection services and solutions; our technology, our cash needs, including our ability to fund our future capital expenditures and working capital requirements;
	o	our expectations regarding competition and growth in our sector; the future sources and availability of additional funding; and
	o	the effect of funding arrangements on projects and products.

 

You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss future expectations and plans, which contain projections of future results of operations or financial condition or state other forward-looking information. We believe that it is important to communicate future expectations to investors. However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or control. Accordingly, we do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future, except as required by law.

 

Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations about future events affecting the Company and are subject to uncertainties and factors that affect all business operating in a global market as well as matters specific to the Company. These uncertainties and factors are difficult to predict, and many of them are beyond the Company’s control. Factors to consider when evaluating these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

 

	●	the impact of pandemics;
	●	the Company’s limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate its business and prospects;
	●	the Company has incurred substantial losses and expects to incur losses in the future and may never achieve profitability;
	●	if the Company is unable to obtain substantial additional financing, it may not be able to remain in business;
	●	the Company’s operating results in future periods are expected to be subject to significant fluctuations, which would likely affect the trading price of the Company’s common shares;
	●	the data privacy and data protection markets are highly competitive, and the Company’s failure to successfully compete will limit its ability to attain, retain and increase its market share;
	●	the document protection market is highly competitive, and the Company’s failure to compete successfully would limit its ability to retain and increase its market share;
	●	the video digital watermarking business is highly competitive, and the Company’s failure to compete successfully would limit its ability to retain and increase its market share;
	●	the Company is subject to rapid technological change, which could render its products and services obsolete;
	●	the Company is dependent upon vendors and other third-party service providers and will be competing with some of these companies;
	●	the Company’s services are technically complex, and it may not be able to prevent defects that could decrease their market acceptance, result in product liability, or harm its reputation;
	●	any loss of the Company’s personnel or inability to acquire new personnel could harm its business;
	●	a failure to maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have material adverse effect on the Company’s business and operating results and shareholders could lose confidence in the Company’s financial reporting;
	●	the Company does not currently have any paying customers;
	●	the Company’s business may suffer if it cannot protect its intellectual property;
	●	the Company’s products may infringe the intellectual property rights of others, causing the Company to incur significant costs or prevent us from licensing its products;
	●	the Company’s success depends on the continued growth in demand for e-business applications;
	●	government regulation and legal uncertainties could add additional costs and risks to doing business on the Internet;
	●	the Company’s share price has been and could be highly volatile, which could result in substantial losses to investors;
	●	the Company has not paid cash dividends in the past and does not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Any return on investment may be limited to the value of the Company’s common shares;

	●	securities analysts may not initiate coverage or continue to cover the Company’s common shares, and this may have a negative impact on its market price;
	●	anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents could prevent or delay a change in control of the Company;
	●	the Company intends to issue additional equity securities, which may dilute the interests of current shareholders or carry rights or preferences senior to the common shares;
	●	the exercise of options and warrants and other issuances of common shares or securities convertible into or exercisable for common shares will dilute the ownership interest of the Company’s current shareholders and may adversely affect the future market price of the Company’s common shares;
	●	limited liability of executive officers and directors may discourage shareholders from bringing a lawsuit against them;
	●	requirements of the SEC with regard to low-priced “penny stocks” may adversely affect the ability of shareholders to sell their shares in the secondary market;
	●	the Company does not anticipate paying dividends to shareholders in the foreseeable future;
	●	the Company may be exposed to adverse currency exchange rate fluctuations, which could harm the Company’s financial results and cash flows;
	●	service outages and disruption of the Company’s infrastructure may harm the Company and adversely impact business operations and injure reputation;
	●	security vulnerabilities in the Company’s products and services or any breach of the Company’s security measures may injure its reputation and disrupt the Company’s business;
	●	the financial reporting obligations of being a public company in the United States are expensive, time consuming, and may place significant demands on the Company’s management; and
	●	the Company’s failure to manage or adequately address any one or more of these risks could result in the business suffering a material adverse effect.

 

The Company believes the items outlined above are important factors that could cause estimates included in its financial statements to differ materially from the actual results and those expressed in a forward-looking statement made in this report or elsewhere by the Company or on its behalf. The Company has discussed these factors in more detail under “Risk Factors” in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 and other periodic reports filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, to the extent that this quarterly report contains forward-looking statements regarding the financial condition, operating results, business prospects or any other aspect of the Company, please be advised that the Company’s actual financial condition, operating results and business performance may differ materially from that projected or estimated by the Company in forward-looking statements. We do not intend to update our description of important factors each time a potential important factor arises, except as required by applicable securities laws and regulations. We advise our shareholders that they should (i) be aware that factors not referred to above could affect the accuracy of the Company’s forward-looking statements and (ii) use caution when considering the Company’s forward-looking statements.

OCULUS VISIONTECH INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2022 and 2021

(Stated in US Dollars)

(Unaudited)

 

 

1.	BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND BUSINESS

 

Oculus VisionTech, Inc. (the "Company") is a development-stage technology company focused on cyber security, data privacy and data protection solutions for Enterprise business customers. Substantially all of the Company's assets and substantially all its operations are located and conducted in the United States and Canada.

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of Oculus VisionTech Inc. (the “Company”) and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The condensed interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company without audit, pursuant to the roles and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the SEC’s rules and regulations. Although management believes that the disclosures are adequate and make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature (except as otherwise noted), that are necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and its results of operation for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021

 

 

2.	GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.  Management has forecast the Company will have sufficient working capital to operate for the ensuing 12 months. As shown in the financial statements, the Company has incurred a loss of $1,649,986 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022 and, in addition the Company incurred losses of $1,986,665 and $2,772,484 for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $47,795,831 and a working capital of $763,372. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations as they come due which management believes it will be able to do.  To date, the Company has funded operations primarily through the issuance of common stock and warrants to outside investors and the Company’s management.  The Company believes that its operations will generate additional funds and that additional funding from outside investors and the Company’s management will continue to be available to the Company when needed.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue as a going concern.

 

In December 2019, a coronavirus (COVID-19) was reported in China and in January 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared it a Public Health Emergency of International Concern. In March 2020, the WHO declared it a global pandemic. COVID-19 continued to spread globally, directly impacting worldwide economic activity and financial markets. The extent of the COVID-19 impact to future operational and financial performance will depend on the duration and spread of the outbreak, related public health measures, and their impact on the macroeconomy. While the Company expects this matter to negatively impact the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows, the extent of the financial impact and duration cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, as none of these impacts can be predicted with certainty.

 

 

3.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of consolidation

 

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). On November 4, 2022, the Board approved the condensed interim consolidated financial statements dated September 30, 2022.

 

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and the entities controlled by the Company. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.

 

Control is defined as the exposure, or rights, to variable returns from involvement with an investee and the ability to affect those returns through power over the investee. Power over an investee exists when an investor has existing rights that give it the ability to direct the activities that significantly affect the investee’s returns. This control is generally evidenced through owning more than 50% of the voting rights or currently exercisable potential voting rights of a Company’s capital stock. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2022 and 2021

(Stated in US Dollars)

(Unaudited)

 

The controlled entities are listed in the following table:

 

Name of Subsidiary	Country of Incorporation		Ownership Interest at September 30, 2022				Ownership Interest at December 31, 2021			Principal Activity
ComplyTrust Inc.	US/Delaware			100	%			100	%	Software Development

 

Significant judgments, estimates and assumptions

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. These judgments, estimates and assumptions are regularly evaluated and are based on management’s experience and knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances. While management believes the estimates to be reasonable, actual results could differ from those estimates and could impact future results of operations and cash flows.

 

The areas which require significant judgment and estimates that management has made at the financial reporting date, that could result in a material change to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, in the event actual results differ from the assumptions made, relate to, but are not limited to the following:

 

Significant judgments

●

the determination of functional currencies

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

Cash equivalents include highly liquid investments with original maturities of twelve months or less, and which are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. Cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments rather than for investment or other purposes.

 

Impairment of long-lived assets and long-lived assets to be disposed of

 

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount and the fair value less costs to sell.

 

Research and development

 

Expenditure on research activities is recognized on the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss as incurred. Development expenditures are capitalized as part of the cost of the resulting intangible asset only if the expenditures can be measured reliably, the product or process is technically and commercially feasible, future economic benefits are probable, and the Company intends to and has sufficient resources to complete development and to use or sell the asset. Management determined that as at September 30, 2022, it was not yet able to demonstrate with sufficient certainty that it is probable that any economic benefits will flow to the Company. Accordingly, all research and development costs incurred to date have been expensed.

Intangible asset

 

Identifiable intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. The cost of intangible assets acquired in a business combination is valued at fair value as at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses.

 

The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite.

 

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment annually and whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortization period and method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at each financial year-end. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are accounted for by changing the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognized in profit or loss.

 

Intangible assets with indefinite lives are measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. These intangible assets are tested for impairment on an annual basis and more frequently if there are indicators that intangible assets may be impaired.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Current income taxes are the expected taxes payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to taxes payable in respect of previous years. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under the asset and liability method, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recognized if it is more likely than not that some portion or the entire deferred tax asset will not be recognized.

 

Net loss per share

 

Basic loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or contracts that may require the issuance of common shares in the future were converted, unless the impact is anti-dilutive. For the period ended September 30, 2022, this calculation proved to be anti-dilutive, and therefore the Company’s 5,415,000 ( September 30, 2021: 4,725,000) stock options and 17,400,000 ( September 30, 2021: 12,500,000) warrants were excluded from the calculation.

 

Right of use asset

 

The Company recognizes a right of use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right of use asset is initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received.

 

The right of use assets are subsequently amortized from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right of use asset or the end of the lease term using the straight line method.

Lease liability

 

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Generally, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.

 

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following payments during the lease term: fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments), and the exercise price under a purchase option that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise.

 

The lease liability is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. It is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising mainly if the Company changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase, renewal or termination option, or if there is a revised in substance fixed lease payment.

 

When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right of use asset, or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right of use asset has been reduced to zero.

 

Stock-based compensation

 

The Company follows the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Section 718 “Compensation - Stock Compensation”, which establishes accounting for equity-based compensation awards to be accounted for using the fair value method. Equity-settled share-based payment arrangements are initially measured at fair value at the date of grant and recorded within shareholders’ equity. Arrangements considered to be cash-settled are initially recorded at fair value and classified as accrued liabilities, and subsequently re-measured at fair value at each reporting date. The Company’s stock option plan is an equity-settled arrangement.

 

The fair value at grant date of all share-based payments is recognized as compensation expense over the period for which benefits of services are expected to be derived, with a corresponding credit to shareholders’ equity or accrued liabilities depending on whether they are equity-settled or cash-settled. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and estimate the expected forfeiture rate at the date of grant.

 

Functional currency

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, which is the Company’s reporting currency. The functional currency of Oculus VisionTech Inc. is the Canadian (“CAD” or “C”) dollar and the functional currency of ComplyTrust Inc. is the U.S. dollar.

 

In accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters, for companies that have a functional currency other than the US dollar, the Company translates the assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars using the rate of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date and the statements of operations and comprehensive loss and cash flows are translated at an average rate during the reporting period. Adjustments resulting from the translation from CAD into U.S. dollars are recorded in shareholders' equity as part of accumulated other comprehensive loss.

 

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of the respective currency of the entity or division, using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions (spot exchange rate). Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the re-measurement of monetary items denominated in foreign currency at period-end exchange rates are recognized in profit or loss. Non-monetary items that are not re-translated at period end are measured at historical cost (translated using the exchange rates at the transaction date), except for non-monetary items measured at fair value, which are translated using the exchange rates as at the date when fair value was determined. Gains and losses are recorded in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

OVERVIEW OF THE COMPANY

 

Oculus VisionTech Inc. (OVTZ) is a Canadian-based development-stage technology company focused on cyber security, data privacy and data protection solutions for Enterprise business customers. Headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, the company was originally founded by image processing experts and is operated by experienced leadership. Currently, OVTZ is expanding and investing in a suite of new data protection and data privacy security products that will revolutionize CCPA, GDPR, LGPD and other data privacy legislation compliance for both data subjects and data controllers worldwide. Our mission is innovation of viable software tools that enable intelligent automated solutions for public cloud customer services and needs specific to data privacy and data protection for individuals, organizations and their customers worldwide, through a vision of mutually trusted data compliance.

 

Our Forget-Me-Yes® data privacy product is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform developed to specifically address the global ‘Right-to-be-Forgotten’ (RtbF) and Right-of-Erase (RoE) legal components of Brazil’s LGPD, Europe’s GDPR, California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), Colorado Privacy Act (CPA) and Virginia CDPA data privacy regulatory compliance. An additional new data protection software tool, ComplyScan®, is being developed to address public cloud data governance compliance. Our legacy Cloud Document Protection System (Cloud-DPS) technology leveraged our digital watermarking technology to enable OVTZ to offer a SaaS-based document management platform for tamper-proof document authentication and protection. Historically, we have used our digital watermarking technology for streaming video content distribution based on embedded digital watermarking, as well as video-on-demand (VOD) systems, services and source-to-destination digital media delivery solutions that allow live or recorded digitized and compressed video to be transmitted through Internet, intranet, satellite or wireless connectivity.

 

We were incorporated on April 18, 1986, as "First Commercial Financial Group Inc." in the Province of Alberta, Canada. In 1989, our name was changed to "Micron Metals Canada Corp.", which purchased 100% of the outstanding shares of USA Video Inc., a Texas corporation, in order to focus on the digital media business. In 1995, we changed our name to "USA Video Interactive Corp." and continued out of the Province of Alberta into the State of Wyoming. At a shareholders meeting held on December 30, 2011, a resolution was passed to change our name to "Oculus VisionTech Inc." and to alter our share capital by way of a reverse stock split (share consolidation) on the basis of fifteen old common shares for one new common share. On January 25, 2012, we changed our name to "Oculus VisionTech Inc." In June 2020, OVTZ acquired OCL Technologies Inc. (OCL), a Delaware corporation data privacy software development startup based in San Diego, California. As a 100% wholly-owned subsidiary of OVTZ and to better align with customer and market focus, OCL has completed a corporate name change to ComplyTrust® Inc. (CTI) on January 21, 2021. All OCL references throughout this document are synonymous with the new name change, CTI.

BUSINESS OBJECTIVES:

 

In this age of digital transformation, data monetization, IoT, and massive data migration to converged hyperscale, geo-disbursed Cloud infrastructure and workloads, data protection and data privacy have taken center stage.

In our ever increasing Everything-as-a-Service world, OVTZ recognizes the need for global cloud-native data privacy and data protection solutions that are multi-cloud platform-ready and can augment both existing legacy and newer agile-driven architectures. OVTZ is building modular microservices-based software solutions and services for both hybrid on-premise and multi-cloud data management that incorporate automated malware, privacy and ransomware scanning, reporting and visualization.

 

Our new Forget-Me-Yes® (FMY) Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) data privacy solution is a secure, Zero-Knowledge platform providing a single-source capability of continuous ‘right-to-be-forgotten’ (RtbF) and ‘right-of-erase’ (RoE) privacy compliance by incorporating automated policy-driven re-query services that guarantees a Data Subject’s requested RtbF/RoE data remains ‘forgotten’ over the life of their FMY subscription. FMY incorporates hybrid encryption technology that ensures all User Interface, data-in-transit and data-at-rest remain secure and can only be accessed by the subscriber. With a cloud-native architecture, the FMY functionality can be utilized as either a complete turnkey SaaS subscription platform, or individually licensed for seamless integration with existing 3rd. party applications and data privacy platforms.

 

Our new ComplyTrust® Software-as-a-Service Suite (CTSS) is a set of software tools specifically designed to address cloud-native data management and regulatory compliant data governance. CTSS will help to remove enterprise organizational barriers and blockers to further enable successful cloud migration and deployment that benefit the cloud infrastructure providers, enterprise organizations, and users collectively. CTSS helps to automate and visualize cloud compliance reporting across accounts, regions and services based on a variety of user-definable and data driven metrics. Development of the first CTSS product, a cloud-native data backup compliance reporting tool called ComplyScan® (CS), has commenced.

 

OVTZ had recognized that cloud-based, digital document security/protection products were a potentially viable business opportunity for the Company that allowed us to apply our proprietary real-time digital video watermarking technology, originally developed for studios and networks in the entertainment industry, to the digital document security/protection market. Cloud-DPS secures and protects digital documents (including text documents, photos, blueprints, etc.) from any modification, and/or attempted forgery by imperceptibly watermarking documents, using real-time image processing and watermarking algorithms, embedded into a secured/protected copy of a document. This authentication and verification process ensures the integrity of the original digital document.

 

Our near-term business objectives for the above:

 

1.	Patent and license new technology developed within the corporate research and development program;

 

2.

Demonstrate proof of concept on selected commercial projects with our Forget-Me-Yes® (FMY) data privacy Software-as-a-Service platform and ComplyTrust® SaaS Suite (CTSS), gain industry recognition for the architectural and business differentiators of the company product’s FMY data privacy, ComplyScan® (CS) compliance validation tool and our legacy C-DPS authentication/tamper-proof functionality, and generate sales and support revenues in FY21+.
