CAUTIONARY NOTE CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

Certain statements and information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 (the “Quarterly Report”) may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, which address activities, events, or developments that we expect or anticipate will or may occur in the future, including such things as future capital expenditures, growth, product development, sales, business strategy, statements related to any further expected effects on our business from the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, inflation, the Russia-Ukraine conflict, and other similar matters are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” or “continue,” or other comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements are based largely on our current expectations and assumptions and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. These statements are subject to many risks, uncertainties, and other important factors that could cause actual future results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements including, but not limited to, the continued duration and scope of the COVID-19 pandemic and any impact on the demand for our products; our ability to obtain needed raw materials and components from our suppliers; additional actions governments, businesses, and individuals take in response to the pandemic, including mandatory business closures and restrictions on onsite commercial interactions; the impact of the pandemic and actions taken in response to the pandemic on global and regional economies and economic activity; the pace of recovery when the COVID-19 pandemic subsides; general economic uncertainty in key global markets and a worsening of global economic conditions or low levels of economic growth; the effects of steps that we could take to reduce operating costs; our inability to sustain profitable sales growth, or reduce our costs to maintain competitive prices for our products; circumstances or developments that may make us unable to implement or realize the anticipated benefits, or that may increase the costs, of our current and planned business initiatives; and those factors detailed by us in our public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including in Item 1A, Risk Factors, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. In light of these risks and uncertainties, all of the forward-looking statements made herein are qualified by these cautionary statements and there can be no assurance that the actual results or developments anticipated by us will be realized.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 and 2023

(Unaudited)

 

1. Basis of Presentation

 

Giftify, Inc. (the “Company” or “Giftify”) through its wholly-owned subsidiary Restaurant.com, Inc., has been in the business of connecting digital consumers, businesses and communities with dining and merchant deal options throughout the United States.

 

On September 4, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved and, by written consent dated September 5, 2024, the holders of a majority of our common stock approved an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to change our name from RDE, Inc. to Giftify, Inc. The change to Giftify, Inc. became effective on October 28, 2024. All references throughout this filing to RDE, Inc. have been changed to Giftify, Inc.

 

On August 6, 2024, The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) granted the Company’s application for listing on the Nasdaq.

 

On August 18, 2023, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger to acquire CardCash Exchange Inc (“CardCash”). On December 29, 2023, the merger was completed and has been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting (See Note 3). CardCash was formed in 2013 and purchases merchant gift cards and resells them at a markup.

 

The Company’s operations are not considered significant compared to the operations of CardCash before the acquisition. Accordingly, for the purpose of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, periods before December 29, 2023 reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of CardCash prior to the acquisition, and is referred to as the “Predecessor”. Periods beginning after December 29, 2023 reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company consolidated with CardCash, and is referred to as the “Successor”. A black-line between the Successor and Predecessor periods has been placed in the condensed consolidated financial statements and in the tables to the notes to the consolidated financial statements to highlight the lack of comparability between these periods. Collectively, the Company (Successor) and CardCash (Predecessor) are referred to as the “Company”.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) pursuant to the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, as filed with the SEC. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures, including notes, required by GAAP.

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Card Cash Exchange, Inc. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern. In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-40, Going Concern, the Company’s management has evaluated whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the accompanying financial statements were issued. The Company and CardCash have a history of reporting net losses and negative operating cash flows. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that the financial statements are issued. In addition, our independent registered public accounting firm, in its audit report to the financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional debt or equity capital to fund its business activities and to ultimately achieve sustainable operating revenues and profitability. The Company has financed its working capital requirements through borrowings from various sources and the sale of its equity securities.

 

As market conditions present uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to secure additional funds, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to secure additional financing on acceptable terms, as and when necessary to continue to conduct operations. There is also significant uncertainty as to the effect that the coronavirus may have on the Company’s business plans and the amount and type of financing available to the Company in the future. If the Company is unable to obtain the cash resources necessary to satisfy the Company’s ongoing cash requirements, the Company could be required to scale back its business activities or to discontinue its operations entirely.

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, management reviews its estimates and if deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted. Significant estimates include those related to assumptions used in valuing inventories at net realizable value, assumptions used in valuing assets acquired in business acquisitions, impairment testing of goodwill and other long-term assets, assumptions used in valuing stock-based compensation, the realizability of deferred tax assets and the related valuation allowance, accruals for potential liabilities, and assumptions used in the determination of the Company’s liquidity.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with FASB ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

 

The Company buys merchant gift cards from the general public and distributors at a discount and then resells them at a markup. The Company also derives revenue from the sale of discount certificates for restaurants on behalf of third-party restaurants.

 

Revenue and costs of sales are recognized when control of the products transfers to our customer, which generally occurs at a point in time when the risk and title to the product transfers to the customer upon delivery to the customer. The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied at that time. The Company’s standard terms of delivery are included in its contracts of sale, confirmation documents, and invoices. The Company recognizes revenue on a gross basis for the sales price of the merchant gift cards and discount certificates it collects.

 

Certain customers may receive incentives, which are accounted for as variable consideration. Provisions for sales returns are recognized in the period when the sale is recorded based upon the Company’s prior experience and current trends. These revenue reductions are established by the Company based upon management’s best estimates at the time of sale following the historical trend, adjusted to reflect known changes in the factors that impact such reserves and allowances, and the terms of agreements with customers.

 

F-7

 

 

Amounts billed and due from the Company’s customers are classified as accounts receivable on the balance sheet. Amounts received in advance from customers are recorded as deferred revenue on the balance sheet until the performance obligations have been satisfied. The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient to not assess contracts for significant financing component because the period between the receipt of advance payment and the Company’s transfer of services to the customer is less than one year.

 

Other

 

Sale of promotional gift cards, sale of travel, vacation and merchandise, and advertising revenues

 

The Company also recognizes revenue from the sale of Restaurant.com promotional gift cards (revenue recognized based on the Company’s historical redemption rates of its promotional gift cards), the sale of travel, vacation, and merchandise on behalf of third-party merchants (revenue reported on a net basis equal to the purchase price received from the customer less a portion of the purchase price paid by the Company to its merchant partners), and advertising revenue for third-party partners, such as Google Ads, wherein third-party website(s) and/or product(s) are shown or incorporated in the Company’s platform or website (revenue recognized when its determinable, which is generally upon receipt of a statement and/or proceeds from the third-party partners).

Cost of Sales

 

Cost of sales consists primarily of the cost to purchase merchant gift cards, and transaction fees and costs.

 

Business Combinations

 

The Company allocates the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and separately identified intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from, acquired technology, trademarks and trade names, useful lives, and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. During the measurement period, which can be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

Intangible Assets

 

The Company has certain intangible assets that were initially recorded at their fair value at the time of acquisition. The finite-lived intangible assets consist of customer relationships, trade name, and developed technology. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life of three years.

 

The Company reviews all finite-lived intangible assets for impairment when circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable. If the carrying value of an asset group is not recoverable, the Company recognizes an impairment loss for the excess carrying value over the fair value in our consolidated statements of operations.

 

F-9

 

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill represents the excess purchase price and related costs over the value assigned to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of the business acquired. As of September 30, 2024, goodwill that arose from acquisition of CardCash (see Note 3) was $20,007,669. Under ASC 350 Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized, but instead are tested for impairment annually, or whenever events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment. The Company’s impairment testing is performed annually at December 31. Impairment of goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets is determined by comparing the fair value of the Company’s reporting unit to the carrying value of the underlying net assets in the reporting unit. If the fair value of the reporting unit is determined to be less than the carrying value of its net assets, goodwill is deemed impaired and an impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the difference between the fair value of the reporting unit and the fair value of its other assets and liabilities. In accordance with the “Segment Reporting” Topic of the ASC, the Company’s chief operating decision maker (the Company’s Chief Executive Officer) determined that there is only one reporting unit. No impairment indicators were identified as of September 30, 2024.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company evaluates long-lived assets, other than goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable. The measurement of possible impairment is based upon the ability to recover the carrying value of the asset through the expected future undiscounted cash flows from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. An impairment loss, equal to the difference between the asset’s fair value and its carrying value, is recognized when the estimated future undiscounted cash flows are less than its carrying amount. No impairment indicators were identified as of September 30, 2024.

 

Leases

 

The Company leases certain corporate office space under lease agreements. The Company determines whether a contract contains a lease at contract inception. A contract is or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of the identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control is determined based on the right to obtain all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset and the right to direct the use of the identified asset. Operating lease right-of-use assets (“ROU”) for operating leases represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and operating lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments. Lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in the general and administrative line in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not included on the balance sheets.

 

Advertising

 

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred and amounted to $637,203 and $573,031 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which are recorded in general and administrative in the Statements of Operations.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company periodically issues share-based awards to employees and non-employees and consultants for services rendered. Stock options vest and expire according to terms established at the issuance date of each grant. Stock grants are measured at the grant date fair value. Stock-based compensation cost is measured at fair value on the grant date and is generally recognized as a charge to operations ratably over the requisite service, or vesting, period. Recognition of compensation expense for non-employees is in the same period and manner as if the Company had paid cash for the services.

 

F-10

 

 

The Company values its equity awards using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and accounts for forfeitures when they occur. Use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the input of subjective assumptions, including expected volatility, expected term, and a risk-free interest rate. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock, calculated utilizing a look-back period approximately equal to the contractual life of the stock option being granted. The expected life of the stock option is calculated as the mid-point between the vesting period and the contractual term (the “simplified method”). The risk-free interest rate is estimated using comparable published federal funds rates.

 

Stock-based compensation expense recognized and recorded as part of selling, general and administrative expenses.

 

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and the dilutive effect of contingent shares outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive contingent shares, which primarily consist of convertible notes and stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants, have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

Loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding during the respective periods. Basic and diluted loss per common share was the same for all periods presented because all convertible notes and stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants outstanding were anti-dilutive.

 

At September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company excluded the outstanding convertible debt and securities summarized below, which entitle the holders thereof to acquire shares of common stock, from its calculation of earnings per share, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

 

		Successor					Predecessor
		September 30, 2024					September 30, 2023
Convertible notes payable			28,258					-
Common stock issuable			350,843					-
Series B convertible preferred stock			-					1,526,882
Common stock options			4,123,282					-
Total			4,502,383					1,526,882

 

The issuable and potentially issuable shares as summarized above. These potentially issuable common shares would have been anti-dilutive because the Company had a net loss for the periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, such common stock equivalents would have been excluded from the calculation of net loss per share.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities is defined as an exit price, which is 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. The three-tier hierarchy for inputs used to measure fair value, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value, is as follows:

 

Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 – quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

 

Level 3 – unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value.

 

F-11

 

 

A financial asset or liability classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities being measured and their placement within the fair value hierarchy.

 

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments (consisting of cash, accounts receivables, deposits to credit card processors, prepaid expense and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable, and other liabilities) are considered to be representative of their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of those instruments.

 

Segment Information

 

Under ASC 280, Segment Reporting, operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise where discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s operation segment consists of one component, and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who is also the CODM, makes decisions and manages the Company’s operations as a single operating segment.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of trade accounts receivable and cash. The credit risk exposure surrounding trade accounts receivable are limited as these amounts represent the timing difference between payments being settled by credit card processors and the cash being provided to the Company.

 

No significant customers comprised more than 10% of accounts receivable as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 or revenue as of and for the period ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

 

The Company maintains a cash balance at financial institutions, which at times exceed the federally insured limit. The Company has not experienced nor expects to experience a loss on this account.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosure, which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expense categories that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included in each reported measure of a segment’s profit or loss. The update also requires all annual disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets to be provided in interim periods and for entities with a single reportable segment to provide all the disclosures required by ASC 280, Segment Reporting, including the significant segment expense disclosures. The Company’s adopted ASU 2023-7 effective January 1, 2024, and there was no material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

 

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

 

3. Acquisition of Card Cash

 

On December 29, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of CardCash. The acquisition was made pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger dated August 18, 2023, between the Company and CardCash. The Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding equity of CardCash for $26,682,000, made up of the issuance of 6,108,007 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $24,682,000, the issuance of a note payable for $1,500,000, and payment of $750,000 in cash.

 

F-12

 

 

The Company utilized the acquisition method of accounting for the acquisition in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, and allocated the purchase price to CardCash’s tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets, and assumed liabilities at their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. The fair value assigned to the developed technology was determined using the relief from royalty method. The fair value assigned to trade name were determined using the relief from royalty method. The fair value of the customer relationships was determined using the multi-period excess earnings method, which estimates the direct cash flow expected to be generated from the existing customers acquired. The cash flows were based on estimates used to value the acquisition, and the discount rates applied were benchmarked with reference to the implied rate of return from the transaction model, as well as the weighted average cost of capital. The valuation assumptions took into consideration the Company’s estimates of customer attrition and revenue growth projections. The excess of the purchase price paid by the Company over the estimated fair value of identified tangible and intangible assets has been recorded as goodwill. Goodwill also represents the future benefits as a result of the acquisition that the Company believes will enhance the Company’s product offerings and lineup available to both new and existing customers and generate future synergies within the discount coupon and gift card business.

 

As of September 30, 2024, management has not yet finalized its valuation analysis. In accordance with ASC 805, the Company made an initial provisional allocation of the purchase price for CardCash based on the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The fair values of the assets acquired, as set forth below, are considered provisional and subject to adjustment as additional information is obtained through the purchase price measurement period (a period of up to one year from the closing date). Any prospective adjustments through the purchase price measurement period would change the fair value allocation as of the acquisition date. The Company is still in the process of reviewing underlying models, assumptions and discount rates used in the valuation of provisional goodwill and intangible assets.

 

The following table summarizes the allocation of the fair value of the purchase consideration to the fair value of tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets, and assumed liabilities of CardCash on the date of acquisition:

The expected term represents the weighted-average period of time that share option awards granted are expected to be outstanding giving consideration to vesting schedules and historical participant exercise behavior; the expected volatility is based upon historical volatility of the Company’s common stock; the expected dividend yield is based on the fact that the Company has not paid dividends in the past and does not expect to pay dividends in the future; and the risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of measurement corresponding with the expected term of the share option award.

With advanced fraud prevention technology, known as FraudFix, CardCash ensures the security and integrity of all transactions conducted on its platform. This commitment to trust and reliability has contributed to its success in saving consumers over $100 million since its inception.

 

Restaurant.com

 

Restaurant.com is a pioneer in the restaurant deal space and the nation’s largest restaurant-focused digital deals brand. We derive our revenue from transactions in which we sell discount certificates for restaurants on behalf of third-party restaurants. Founded in 1999, we connect digital consumers, businesses, and communities offering dining and merchant deal options nationwide at over 182,500 restaurants and retailers to over 7.8 million customers. Our 10,000 core restaurants and 170,000 Dining Discount Pass restaurants and retailers extend nationwide. Our top three B2C markets are New York, Chicago and Los Angeles.

 

Restaurant.com Business to Customer Division

 

Our B2C division accounted for 45% of gross revenue in our fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. To our database of 6.2 million customers, we sell:

 

● Discounted certificates for 10,000 restaurants. The certificates range from $5 to $100 and never expire.

 

● Discount Dining Passes, which provide discounts at 170,000 restaurants and other retailers. These passes provide multiple uses for nine months.

 

● “Specials by Restaurant.com” which bundle Restaurant.com certificates with a variety of other entertainment options, including theatre, movies, wine and travel. Customers have favored these bundled offering (“Specials”), generating significantly greater revenue per customer when compared to purchasing our other products. The average other Company value for these Specials sales is nearly five times a certificate purchase. Specials generated over 5% of our past year’s B2C revenue from 60% of the B2C revenue of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. We believe that our relationships with small businesses presents a significant revenue opportunity through such cross-promotions.

 

Restaurant.com Business to Business Division

 

Our B2B division accounted for 55% of our gross revenue in our fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. We sell certificates and Discount Dining Passes to corporations and marketers, which use them to:

Restaurant.com Attractive Customer Demographics

 

We intend to grow and leverage our customer database of 6.2 million which we believe is of value to merchants for a variety of services and products.

 

Inflation

 

Global inflation also increased during 2021 and in 2022. The Russia and Ukraine conflict and other geopolitical conflicts, as well as related international response, have exacerbated inflationary pressures, including causing increases in the price for goods and services and global supply chain disruptions, which have resulted and may continue to result in shortages in food products, materials and services. Such shortages have resulted and may continue to result in inflationary cost increases for labor, fuel, food products, materials and services, and could continue to cause costs to increase as well as result in the scarcity of certain materials. We cannot predict any future trends in the rate of inflation or other negative economic factors or associated increases in our operating costs and how that may impact our business. To the extent we and the restaurant customers we service are unable to recover higher operating costs resulting from inflation or otherwise mitigate the impact of such costs on our and their business, our revenues and gross profit could decrease, and our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

 

Going Concern

 

The Company has a history of reporting net losses and negative operating cash flows. At September 30, 2024, the Company had cash of $3,090,980 available to fund its operations, including expansion plans, and to service its debt, and a working capital deficit of $2,182,182.

 

Our consolidated financial statements have been presented on the basis that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have experienced operating losses and negative operating cash flows during 2023 and 2022. We have financed our working capital requirements through borrowings from various sources and the sale of our equity securities.

 

As a result, management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, has also expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional debt or equity capital to fund its business activities and to ultimately achieve sustainable operating revenues and profitability.

 

As market conditions present uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to secure additional funds, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to secure additional financing on acceptable terms, as and when necessary to continue to conduct operations. There is also significant uncertainty as to the effect that the coronavirus may have on the Company’s business plans and the amount and type of financing available to the Company in the future.

 

If the Company is unable to obtain the cash resources necessary to satisfy the Company’s ongoing cash requirements, the Company could be required to scale back its business activities or to discontinue its operations entirely.

Modified EBITDA

 

In addition to our GAAP results, we present Modified EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our performance. However, Modified EBITDA is not a recognized measurement under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, income from operations or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. We define Modified EBITDA as net income (loss), plus interest expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, and fair value of common stock issued for services.

 

Management considers our core operating performance to be that which our managers can affect in any particular period through their management of the resources that affect our underlying revenue and profit generating operations during that period. Non-GAAP adjustments to our results prepared in accordance with GAAP are itemized below. You are encouraged to evaluate these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating Modified EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of Modified EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.

We present Modified EBITDA because we believe it assists investors and analysts in comparing our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. In addition, we use Modified EBITDA for developing our internal budgets, forecasts and strategic plan; in analyzing the effectiveness of our business strategies in evaluating potential acquisitions; making compensation decisions; and in communications with our board of directors concerning our financial performance. Modified EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, which includes, among others, the following:

 

●

Modified EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

	●	Modified EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
	●	Modified EBITDA does not reflect future interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debts; and
	●	Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Modified EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements.

Selling, general and administrative expenses consist of costs incurred to identify, communicate with and evaluate potential customers and related business opportunities, and compensation to officers and directors, as well as legal and other professional fees, lease expense, and other general corporate expenses. Management expects selling, general and administrative expenses to increase in future periods as the Company adds personnel and incurs additional costs related to its operation as a public company, including higher legal, accounting, insurance, compliance, compensation and other costs.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $20,954,914 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $8,238,497 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $12,716,417. The increase was from the recording of $9,762,242 of stock-based compensation expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The remaining change in selling, general and administrative expenses was from general changes in our business and operations.

 

Amortization of capitalized software costs. Amortization expenses are primarily attributed to the Company’s capitalized software development costs.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 presented elsewhere in this report, which have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Certain accounting policies and estimates are particularly important to the understanding of the Company’s financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by management or can be materially affected by changes from period to period in economic factors or conditions that are outside of the Company’s control. As a result, these issues are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. In applying these policies, management uses its judgment to determine the appropriate assumptions to be used in the determination of certain estimates. Those estimates are based on the Company’s historical operations, the future business plans and the projected financial results, the terms of existing contracts, trends in the industry, and information available from other outside sources.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with FASB ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

 

The Company buys merchant gift cards from the general public and distributors at a discount and then resells them at a markup. The Company also derives revenue from the sale of discount certificates for restaurants on behalf of third-party restaurants.

 

Revenue and costs of sales are recognized when control of the products transfers to our customer, which generally occurs at a point in time when the risk and title to the product transfers to the customer upon delivery to the customer. The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied at that time. The Company’s standard terms of delivery are included in its contracts of sale, the confirmation documents, and invoices. The Company recognizes revenue on a gross basis for the sales price of the merchant gift cards and discount certificates it collects.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company periodically issues share-based awards to employees and non-employees and consultants for services rendered. Stock options vest and expire according to terms established at the issuance date of each grant. Stock grants are measured at the grant date fair value. Stock-based compensation cost is measured at fair value on the grant date and is generally recognized as a charge to operations ratably over the requisite service, or vesting, period. Recognition of compensation expense for non-employees is in the same period and manner as if the Company had paid cash for the services.

 

10

 

 

Acquisitions and Business Combinations

 

The Company allocates the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and separately identified intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from, acquired technology, trademarks and trade names, useful lives, and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. During the measurement period, which can be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

See discussion of recent accounting pronouncements in Note 2 to the accompanying financial statements.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of the uncertainty concerning our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Our consolidated financial statements have been presented on the basis that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We experienced operating losses and negative operating cash flows during 2023 and 2022. We have financed our working capital requirements through borrowings from various sources and the sale of equity securities.

 

We have a history of reporting net losses. At September 30, 2024, we had cash of $3,090,980 available to fund our operations, including expansion plans, and to service our debt, and a working capital deficit of $2,182,182. We anticipate our cash balance will last until at least June 2025. As a result, we have concluded that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

On October 25, 2024, we entered into an At-the-Market Issuance Sales Agreement with Ascendiant Capital Markets, LLC, as sales agent to sell shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 (the “Common Stock”), having an aggregate offering price of up to $30,000,000 (the “Shares”) from time to time, through an “at the market offering” (the “ATM Offering”) as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). As of the date of the filing this report, the Company sold 37,102 shares of Common Stock and received proceeds of $66,341, or an average of $1.79 per share.

 

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional debt or equity capital to fund its business activities and to ultimately achieve sustainable operating revenues and profitability.

 

As market conditions present uncertainty as to our ability to secure additional funds, there can be no assurances that we will be able to secure additional financing on acceptable terms, as and when necessary, to continue to conduct operations. There is also significant uncertainty as to the amount and type of financing available to us in the future.

 

If we are unable to obtain the cash resources necessary to satisfy our ongoing cash requirements, we could be required to scale back its business activities or to discontinue its operations entirely.

 

Our consolidated statements of cash flows as discussed herein are presented below.

		Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024				Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure control and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(f). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2024. As of September 30, 2024, management’s assessment identified the following material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting:

 

We continue to have a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as disclosed in the December 31, 2023, Annual Report on Form 10-K, in that we had inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives. Specifically, certain personnel have the ability to both (i) create and post journal entries within our general ledger system and (ii) prepare and review account reconciliations; and (ii) we did not design and maintain effective controls over certain information technology (“IT”) general controls for information systems that are relevant to the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Specifically, we did not design and maintain effective program change management controls to ensure that information technology program and data changes affecting certain financial IT applications and underlying accounting records are identified, tested, authorized and implemented appropriately.

 

Notwithstanding the identified material weaknesses, management has concluded that the Financial Statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K present fairly, in all material respects, the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods disclosed in conformity with U.S. GAAP.

 

Remediation Plan

 

Management has been actively engaged in developing and implementing remediation plans to address material weaknesses described above. These remediation efforts are ongoing and include or are expected to include designing and implementing controls to formalize roles and review responsibilities to align with our team’s skills and experience and designing and implementing controls over segregation of duties, and designing and implementing IT general controls, including controls over the review and update of user access rights and privileges and program change management controls.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

Inherent Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

 

Management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control systems are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, no evaluation of internal control over financial reporting can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been or will be detected.

 

14

 

 

These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on 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. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

 

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time the Company may be named in claims arising in the ordinary course of business. Currently, there are no such legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or that involve the Company that, in the opinion of management, could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business or financial condition.

Basis of Presentation	1. Basis of Presentation   Giftify, Inc. (the “Company” or “Giftify”) through its wholly-owned subsidiary Restaurant.com, Inc., has been in the business of connecting digital consumers, businesses and communities with dining and merchant deal options throughout the United States.   On September 4, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved and, by written consent dated September 5, 2024, the holders of a majority of our common stock approved an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to change our name from RDE, Inc. to Giftify, Inc. The change to Giftify, Inc. became effective on October 28, 2024. All references throughout this filing to RDE, Inc. have been changed to Giftify, Inc.   On August 6, 2024, The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) granted the Company’s application for listing on the Nasdaq.   On August 18, 2023, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger to acquire CardCash Exchange Inc (“CardCash”). On December 29, 2023, the merger was completed and has been accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting (See Note 3). CardCash was formed in 2013 and purchases merchant gift cards and resells them at a markup.   The Company’s operations are not considered significant compared to the operations of CardCash before the acquisition. Accordingly, for the purpose of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, periods before December 29, 2023 reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of CardCash prior to the acquisition, and is referred to as the “Predecessor”. Periods beginning after December 29, 2023 reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company consolidated with CardCash, and is referred to as the “Successor”. A black-line between the Successor and Predecessor periods has been placed in the condensed consolidated financial statements and in the tables to the notes to the consolidated financial statements to highlight the lack of comparability between these periods. Collectively, the Company (Successor) and CardCash (Predecessor) are referred to as the “Company”.   The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) pursuant to the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, as filed with the SEC. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures, including notes, required by GAAP.   The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Card Cash Exchange, Inc. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.     Going Concern   The accompanying financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern. In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 205-40, Going Concern, the Company’s management has evaluated whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the accompanying financial statements were issued. The Company and CardCash have a history of reporting net losses and negative operating cash flows. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that the financial statements are issued. In addition, our independent registered public accounting firm, in its audit report to the financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.   The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional debt or equity capital to fund its business activities and to ultimately achieve sustainable operating revenues and profitability. The Company has financed its working capital requirements through borrowings from various sources and the sale of its equity securities.   As market conditions present uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to secure additional funds, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to secure additional financing on acceptable terms, as and when necessary to continue to conduct operations. There is also significant uncertainty as to the effect that the coronavirus may have on the Company’s business plans and the amount and type of financing available to the Company in the future. If the Company is unable to obtain the cash resources necessary to satisfy the Company’s ongoing cash requirements, the Company could be required to scale back its business activities or to discontinue its operations entirely.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Significant Accounting Policies	2. Significant Accounting Policies   Use of Estimates   The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, management reviews its estimates and if deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted. Significant estimates include those related to assumptions used in valuing inventories at net realizable value, assumptions used in valuing assets acquired in business acquisitions, impairment testing of goodwill and other long-term assets, assumptions used in valuing stock-based compensation, the realizability of deferred tax assets and the related valuation allowance, accruals for potential liabilities, and assumptions used in the determination of the Company’s liquidity.   Revenue Recognition   The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with FASB ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.   The Company buys merchant gift cards from the general public and distributors at a discount and then resells them at a markup. The Company also derives revenue from the sale of discount certificates for restaurants on behalf of third-party restaurants.   Revenue and costs of sales are recognized when control of the products transfers to our customer, which generally occurs at a point in time when the risk and title to the product transfers to the customer upon delivery to the customer. The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied at that time. The Company’s standard terms of delivery are included in its contracts of sale, confirmation documents, and invoices. The Company recognizes revenue on a gross basis for the sales price of the merchant gift cards and discount certificates it collects.   Certain customers may receive incentives, which are accounted for as variable consideration. Provisions for sales returns are recognized in the period when the sale is recorded based upon the Company’s prior experience and current trends. These revenue reductions are established by the Company based upon management’s best estimates at the time of sale following the historical trend, adjusted to reflect known changes in the factors that impact such reserves and allowances, and the terms of agreements with customers.     Amounts billed and due from the Company’s customers are classified as accounts receivable on the balance sheet. Amounts received in advance from customers are recorded as deferred revenue on the balance sheet until the performance obligations have been satisfied. The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient to not assess contracts for significant financing component because the period between the receipt of advance payment and the Company’s transfer of services to the customer is less than one year.   Other   Sale of promotional gift cards, sale of travel, vacation and merchandise, and advertising revenues   The Company also recognizes revenue from the sale of Restaurant.com promotional gift cards (revenue recognized based on the Company’s historical redemption rates of its promotional gift cards), the sale of travel, vacation, and merchandise on behalf of third-party merchants (revenue reported on a net basis equal to the purchase price received from the customer less a portion of the purchase price paid by the Company to its merchant partners), and advertising revenue for third-party partners, such as Google Ads, wherein third-party website(s) and/or product(s) are shown or incorporated in the Company’s platform or website (revenue recognized when its determinable, which is generally upon receipt of a statement and/or proceeds from the third-party partners).   In the following table, revenue is disaggregated by our divisions and type of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:   Sales Channels   Gift Cards     Restaurant Coupons     Sale of Travel, Vacation and Merchandise     Advertising     Total                                   Successor:                                         Three Months Ended September 30, 2024                                         Business to consumer (B2C)   $ 11,115,310     $ 97,302     $ -     $ 25,900     $ 11,238,512   Business to business (B2B)     11,972,338       -                 -       -       11,972,338   Other     -       -       -       -       -   Total   $ 23,087,628     $ 97,302     $ -     $ 25,900     $ 23,210,850                                             Predecessor:                                         Three Months Ended September 30, 2023                                         Business to consumer (B2C)   $ 9,882,765     $ -     $ -     $ -     $ 9,882,765   Business to business (B2B)           -       -       -         Other     10,324,754       -       -       -       10,324,754   Total   $ 20,207,519     $ -     $ -     $ -     $ 20,207,519       In the following table, revenue is disaggregated by our divisions and type of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:   Sales Channels   Gift Cards     Restaurant Coupons     Sale of Travel, Vacation and Merchandise     Advertising     Total                                   Successor:                                         Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024                                         Business to consumer (B2C)   $ 31,037,482     $ 327,579     $ 4,461     $ 55,887     $ 31,425,409   Business to business (B2B)     33,327,837       -       -       -       33,327,837   Total   $ 64,365,319     $ 327,579     $ 4,461     $ 55,887     $ 64,753,246                                             Predecessor:                                         Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023                                         Business to consumer (B2C)   $ 32,075,843     $ -     $ -     $ -     $ 32,075,843   Business to business (B2B)     33,385,061       -       -       -       33,385,061   Total   $ 65,460,904     $ -     $ -     $ -     $ 65,460,904     Cost of Sales   Cost of sales consists primarily of the cost to purchase merchant gift cards, and transaction fees and costs.   Business Combinations   The Company allocates the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and separately identified intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from, acquired technology, trademarks and trade names, useful lives, and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. During the measurement period, which can be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.   Intangible Assets   The Company has certain intangible assets that were initially recorded at their fair value at the time of acquisition. The finite-lived intangible assets consist of customer relationships, trade name, and developed technology. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life of three years.   The Company reviews all finite-lived intangible assets for impairment when circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable. If the carrying value of an asset group is not recoverable, the Company recognizes an impairment loss for the excess carrying value over the fair value in our consolidated statements of operations.     Goodwill   Goodwill represents the excess purchase price and related costs over the value assigned to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of the business acquired. As of September 30, 2024, goodwill that arose from acquisition of CardCash (see Note 3) was $20,007,669. Under ASC 350 Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized, but instead are tested for impairment annually, or whenever events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment. The Company’s impairment testing is performed annually at December 31. Impairment of goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets is determined by comparing the fair value of the Company’s reporting unit to the carrying value of the underlying net assets in the reporting unit. If the fair value of the reporting unit is determined to be less than the carrying value of its net assets, goodwill is deemed impaired and an impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the difference between the fair value of the reporting unit and the fair value of its other assets and liabilities. In accordance with the “Segment Reporting” Topic of the ASC, the Company’s chief operating decision maker (the Company’s Chief Executive Officer) determined that there is only one reporting unit. No impairment indicators were identified as of September 30, 2024.   Long-Lived Assets   The Company evaluates long-lived assets, other than goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable. The measurement of possible impairment is based upon the ability to recover the carrying value of the asset through the expected future undiscounted cash flows from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. An impairment loss, equal to the difference between the asset’s fair value and its carrying value, is recognized when the estimated future undiscounted cash flows are less than its carrying amount. No impairment indicators were identified as of September 30, 2024.   Leases   The Company leases certain corporate office space under lease agreements. The Company determines whether a contract contains a lease at contract inception. A contract is or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of the identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control is determined based on the right to obtain all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset and the right to direct the use of the identified asset. Operating lease right-of-use assets (“ROU”) for operating leases represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and operating lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments. Lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in the general and administrative line in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not included on the balance sheets.   Advertising   The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred and amounted to $637,203 and $573,031 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which are recorded in general and administrative in the Statements of Operations.   Stock-Based Compensation   The Company periodically issues share-based awards to employees and non-employees and consultants for services rendered. Stock options vest and expire according to terms established at the issuance date of each grant. Stock grants are measured at the grant date fair value. Stock-based compensation cost is measured at fair value on the grant date and is generally recognized as a charge to operations ratably over the requisite service, or vesting, period. Recognition of compensation expense for non-employees is in the same period and manner as if the Company had paid cash for the services.     The Company values its equity awards using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and accounts for forfeitures when they occur. Use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the input of subjective assumptions, including expected volatility, expected term, and a risk-free interest rate. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock, calculated utilizing a look-back period approximately equal to the contractual life of the stock option being granted. The expected life of the stock option is calculated as the mid-point between the vesting period and the contractual term (the “simplified method”). The risk-free interest rate is estimated using comparable published federal funds rates.   Stock-based compensation expense recognized and recorded as part of selling, general and administrative expenses.   Earnings (Loss) Per Share   Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and the dilutive effect of contingent shares outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive contingent shares, which primarily consist of convertible notes and stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants, have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because their effect is anti-dilutive.   Loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding during the respective periods. Basic and diluted loss per common share was the same for all periods presented because all convertible notes and stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants outstanding were anti-dilutive.   At September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company excluded the outstanding convertible debt and securities summarized below, which entitle the holders thereof to acquire shares of common stock, from its calculation of earnings per share, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.       Successor       Predecessor       September 30, 2024       September 30, 2023                   Convertible notes payable     28,258         -   Common stock issuable     350,843         -   Series B convertible preferred stock     -         1,526,882   Common stock options     4,123,282         -   Total     4,502,383         1,526,882     The issuable and potentially issuable shares as summarized above. These potentially issuable common shares would have been anti-dilutive because the Company had a net loss for the periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, such common stock equivalents would have been excluded from the calculation of net loss per share.   Fair Value of Financial Instruments   Fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities is defined as an exit price, which is 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. The three-tier hierarchy for inputs used to measure fair value, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value, is as follows:   Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.   Level 2 – quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.   Level 3 – unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value.     A financial asset or liability classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities being measured and their placement within the fair value hierarchy.   The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments (consisting of cash, accounts receivables, deposits to credit card processors, prepaid expense and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable, and other liabilities) are considered to be representative of their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of those instruments.   Segment Information   Under ASC 280, Segment Reporting, operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise where discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s operation segment consists of one component, and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who is also the CODM, makes decisions and manages the Company’s operations as a single operating segment.   Concentration of Credit Risk   Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of trade accounts receivable and cash. The credit risk exposure surrounding trade accounts receivable are limited as these amounts represent the timing difference between payments being settled by credit card processors and the cash being provided to the Company.   No significant customers comprised more than 10% of accounts receivable as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 or revenue as of and for the period ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.   The Company maintains a cash balance at financial institutions, which at times exceed the federally insured limit. The Company has not experienced nor expects to experience a loss on this account.   Recent Accounting Pronouncements   In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosure, which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expense categories that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included in each reported measure of a segment’s profit or loss. The update also requires all annual disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets to be provided in interim periods and for entities with a single reportable segment to provide all the disclosures required by ASC 280, Segment Reporting, including the significant segment expense disclosures. The Company’s adopted ASU 2023-7 effective January 1, 2024, and there was no material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.   Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

Acquisition of Card Cash	9 Months Ended

Business Combination, Asset Acquisition, and Joint Venture Formation [Abstract]
Acquisition of Card Cash	3. Acquisition of Card Cash   On December 29, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition of CardCash. The acquisition was made pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger dated August 18, 2023, between the Company and CardCash. The Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding equity of CardCash for $26,682,000, made up of the issuance of 6,108,007 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $24,682,000, the issuance of a note payable for $1,500,000, and payment of $750,000 in cash.     The Company utilized the acquisition method of accounting for the acquisition in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, and allocated the purchase price to CardCash’s tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets, and assumed liabilities at their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. The fair value assigned to the developed technology was determined using the relief from royalty method. The fair value assigned to trade name were determined using the relief from royalty method. The fair value of the customer relationships was determined using the multi-period excess earnings method, which estimates the direct cash flow expected to be generated from the existing customers acquired. The cash flows were based on estimates used to value the acquisition, and the discount rates applied were benchmarked with reference to the implied rate of return from the transaction model, as well as the weighted average cost of capital. The valuation assumptions took into consideration the Company’s estimates of customer attrition and revenue growth projections. The excess of the purchase price paid by the Company over the estimated fair value of identified tangible and intangible assets has been recorded as goodwill. Goodwill also represents the future benefits as a result of the acquisition that the Company believes will enhance the Company’s product offerings and lineup available to both new and existing customers and generate future synergies within the discount coupon and gift card business.   As of September 30, 2024, management has not yet finalized its valuation analysis. In accordance with ASC 805, the Company made an initial provisional allocation of the purchase price for CardCash based on the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The fair values of the assets acquired, as set forth below, are considered provisional and subject to adjustment as additional information is obtained through the purchase price measurement period (a period of up to one year from the closing date). Any prospective adjustments through the purchase price measurement period would change the fair value allocation as of the acquisition date. The Company is still in the process of reviewing underlying models, assumptions and discount rates used in the valuation of provisional goodwill and intangible assets.   The following table summarizes the allocation of the fair value of the purchase consideration to the fair value of tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets, and assumed liabilities of CardCash on the date of acquisition:       Fair Value           Fair value of consideration:         Cash   $ 750,000   Notes payable ($750,000 due December 30, 2024; $750,000 due December 30, 2025)     1,500,000   Common stock (6,108,007 shares of common stock at $4.00 per share)     24,432,000   Total purchase price   $ 26,682,000             Allocation of the consideration to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed:         Cash   $ 2,061,265   Accounts receivable     1,582,635   Inventories     4,152,273   Prepaids, deposits, and other     220,385   Property and equipment, net     2,563,312   Accounts payable and accrued liabilities     (2,068,154 ) Line of credit     (6,737,385 ) Deferred tax liability     (1,800,000 ) Net tangible assets     (25,669 )           Intangible assets:         Developed technology     2,600,000   Trade name     2,400,000   Customer relationships     1,700,000   Net identifiable intangible assets     6,700,000   Goodwill     20,007,669   Fair value of net asset acquired   $ 26,682,000       The following unaudited pro forma statements of operations present the Company’s pro forma results of operations after giving effect to the purchase of CardCash based on the historical financial statements of the Company and CardCash.

Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	9 Months Ended
	Sep. 30, 2024
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates   The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, management reviews its estimates and if deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted. Significant estimates include those related to assumptions used in valuing inventories at net realizable value, assumptions used in valuing assets acquired in business acquisitions, impairment testing of goodwill and other long-term assets, assumptions used in valuing stock-based compensation, the realizability of deferred tax assets and the related valuation allowance, accruals for potential liabilities, and assumptions used in the determination of the Company’s liquidity.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition   The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with FASB ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.   The Company buys merchant gift cards from the general public and distributors at a discount and then resells them at a markup. The Company also derives revenue from the sale of discount certificates for restaurants on behalf of third-party restaurants.   Revenue and costs of sales are recognized when control of the products transfers to our customer, which generally occurs at a point in time when the risk and title to the product transfers to the customer upon delivery to the customer. The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied at that time. The Company’s standard terms of delivery are included in its contracts of sale, confirmation documents, and invoices. The Company recognizes revenue on a gross basis for the sales price of the merchant gift cards and discount certificates it collects.   Certain customers may receive incentives, which are accounted for as variable consideration. Provisions for sales returns are recognized in the period when the sale is recorded based upon the Company’s prior experience and current trends. These revenue reductions are established by the Company based upon management’s best estimates at the time of sale following the historical trend, adjusted to reflect known changes in the factors that impact such reserves and allowances, and the terms of agreements with customers.     Amounts billed and due from the Company’s customers are classified as accounts receivable on the balance sheet. Amounts received in advance from customers are recorded as deferred revenue on the balance sheet until the performance obligations have been satisfied. The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient to not assess contracts for significant financing component because the period between the receipt of advance payment and the Company’s transfer of services to the customer is less than one year.   Other   Sale of promotional gift cards, sale of travel, vacation and merchandise, and advertising revenues   The Company also recognizes revenue from the sale of Restaurant.com promotional gift cards (revenue recognized based on the Company’s historical redemption rates of its promotional gift cards), the sale of travel, vacation, and merchandise on behalf of third-party merchants (revenue reported on a net basis equal to the purchase price received from the customer less a portion of the purchase price paid by the Company to its merchant partners), and advertising revenue for third-party partners, such as Google Ads, wherein third-party website(s) and/or product(s) are shown or incorporated in the Company’s platform or website (revenue recognized when its determinable, which is generally upon receipt of a statement and/or proceeds from the third-party partners).   In the following table, revenue is disaggregated by our divisions and type of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:   Sales Channels   Gift Cards     Restaurant Coupons     Sale of Travel, Vacation and Merchandise     Advertising     Total                                   Successor:                                         Three Months Ended September 30, 2024                                         Business to consumer (B2C)   $ 11,115,310     $ 97,302     $ -     $ 25,900     $ 11,238,512   Business to business (B2B)     11,972,338       -                 -       -       11,972,338   Other     -       -       -       -       -   Total   $ 23,087,628     $ 97,302     $ -     $ 25,900     $ 23,210,850                                             Predecessor:                                         Three Months Ended September 30, 2023                                         Business to consumer (B2C)   $ 9,882,765     $ -     $ -     $ -     $ 9,882,765   Business to business (B2B)           -       -       -         Other     10,324,754       -       -       -       10,324,754   Total   $ 20,207,519     $ -     $ -     $ -     $ 20,207,519       In the following table, revenue is disaggregated by our divisions and type of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:   Sales Channels   Gift Cards     Restaurant Coupons     Sale of Travel, Vacation and Merchandise     Advertising     Total                                   Successor:                                         Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024                                         Business to consumer (B2C)   $ 31,037,482     $ 327,579     $ 4,461     $ 55,887     $ 31,425,409   Business to business (B2B)     33,327,837       -       -       -       33,327,837   Total   $ 64,365,319     $ 327,579     $ 4,461     $ 55,887     $ 64,753,246                                             Predecessor:                                         Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023                                         Business to consumer (B2C)   $ 32,075,843     $ -     $ -     $ -     $ 32,075,843   Business to business (B2B)     33,385,061       -       -       -       33,385,061   Total   $ 65,460,904     $ -     $ -     $ -     $ 65,460,904
Cost of Sales	Cost of Sales   Cost of sales consists primarily of the cost to purchase merchant gift cards, and transaction fees and costs.
Business Combinations	Business Combinations   The Company allocates the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and separately identified intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from, acquired technology, trademarks and trade names, useful lives, and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. During the measurement period, which can be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.
Intangible Assets	Intangible Assets   The Company has certain intangible assets that were initially recorded at their fair value at the time of acquisition. The finite-lived intangible assets consist of customer relationships, trade name, and developed technology. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life of three years.   The Company reviews all finite-lived intangible assets for impairment when circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable. If the carrying value of an asset group is not recoverable, the Company recognizes an impairment loss for the excess carrying value over the fair value in our consolidated statements of operations.
Goodwill	Goodwill   Goodwill represents the excess purchase price and related costs over the value assigned to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of the business acquired. As of September 30, 2024, goodwill that arose from acquisition of CardCash (see Note 3) was $20,007,669. Under ASC 350 Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized, but instead are tested for impairment annually, or whenever events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment. The Company’s impairment testing is performed annually at December 31. Impairment of goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets is determined by comparing the fair value of the Company’s reporting unit to the carrying value of the underlying net assets in the reporting unit. If the fair value of the reporting unit is determined to be less than the carrying value of its net assets, goodwill is deemed impaired and an impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the difference between the fair value of the reporting unit and the fair value of its other assets and liabilities. In accordance with the “Segment Reporting” Topic of the ASC, the Company’s chief operating decision maker (the Company’s Chief Executive Officer) determined that there is only one reporting unit. No impairment indicators were identified as of September 30, 2024.
Long-Lived Assets	Long-Lived Assets   The Company evaluates long-lived assets, other than goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable. The measurement of possible impairment is based upon the ability to recover the carrying value of the asset through the expected future undiscounted cash flows from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. An impairment loss, equal to the difference between the asset’s fair value and its carrying value, is recognized when the estimated future undiscounted cash flows are less than its carrying amount. No impairment indicators were identified as of September 30, 2024.
Leases	Leases   The Company leases certain corporate office space under lease agreements. The Company determines whether a contract contains a lease at contract inception. A contract is or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of the identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control is determined based on the right to obtain all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset and the right to direct the use of the identified asset. Operating lease right-of-use assets (“ROU”) for operating leases represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and operating lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments. Lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in the general and administrative line in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not included on the balance sheets.
Advertising	Advertising   The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred and amounted to $637,203 and $573,031 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which are recorded in general and administrative in the Statements of Operations.
Stock-Based Compensation	Stock-Based Compensation   The Company periodically issues share-based awards to employees and non-employees and consultants for services rendered. Stock options vest and expire according to terms established at the issuance date of each grant. Stock grants are measured at the grant date fair value. Stock-based compensation cost is measured at fair value on the grant date and is generally recognized as a charge to operations ratably over the requisite service, or vesting, period. Recognition of compensation expense for non-employees is in the same period and manner as if the Company had paid cash for the services.     The Company values its equity awards using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and accounts for forfeitures when they occur. Use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the input of subjective assumptions, including expected volatility, expected term, and a risk-free interest rate. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock, calculated utilizing a look-back period approximately equal to the contractual life of the stock option being granted. The expected life of the stock option is calculated as the mid-point between the vesting period and the contractual term (the “simplified method”). The risk-free interest rate is estimated using comparable published federal funds rates.   Stock-based compensation expense recognized and recorded as part of selling, general and administrative expenses.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share	Earnings (Loss) Per Share   Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and the dilutive effect of contingent shares outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive contingent shares, which primarily consist of convertible notes and stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants, have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because their effect is anti-dilutive.   Loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding during the respective periods. Basic and diluted loss per common share was the same for all periods presented because all convertible notes and stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants outstanding were anti-dilutive.   At September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company excluded the outstanding convertible debt and securities summarized below, which entitle the holders thereof to acquire shares of common stock, from its calculation of earnings per share, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.       Successor       Predecessor       September 30, 2024       September 30, 2023                   Convertible notes payable     28,258         -   Common stock issuable     350,843         -   Series B convertible preferred stock     -         1,526,882   Common stock options     4,123,282         -   Total     4,502,383         1,526,882     The issuable and potentially issuable shares as summarized above. These potentially issuable common shares would have been anti-dilutive because the Company had a net loss for the periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, such common stock equivalents would have been excluded from the calculation of net loss per share.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	Fair Value of Financial Instruments   Fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities is defined as an exit price, which is 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. The three-tier hierarchy for inputs used to measure fair value, which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value, is as follows:   Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.   Level 2 – quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.   Level 3 – unobservable inputs based on the Company’s assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value.     A financial asset or liability classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities being measured and their placement within the fair value hierarchy.   The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments (consisting of cash, accounts receivables, deposits to credit card processors, prepaid expense and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable, and other liabilities) are considered to be representative of their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of those instruments.
Segment Information	Segment Information   Under ASC 280, Segment Reporting, operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise where discrete financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s operation segment consists of one component, and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, who is also the CODM, makes decisions and manages the Company’s operations as a single operating segment.
Concentration of Credit Risk	Concentration of Credit Risk   Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of trade accounts receivable and cash. The credit risk exposure surrounding trade accounts receivable are limited as these amounts represent the timing difference between payments being settled by credit card processors and the cash being provided to the Company.   No significant customers comprised more than 10% of accounts receivable as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 or revenue as of and for the period ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.   The Company maintains a cash balance at financial institutions, which at times exceed the federally insured limit. The Company has not experienced nor expects to experience a loss on this account.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements   In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosure, which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expense categories that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included in each reported measure of a segment’s profit or loss. The update also requires all annual disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets to be provided in interim periods and for entities with a single reportable segment to provide all the disclosures required by ASC 280, Segment Reporting, including the significant segment expense disclosures. The Company’s adopted ASU 2023-7 effective January 1, 2024, and there was no material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.   Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.
