NOTES TO CONDENSED AND CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Sunstock, Inc. (“Sunstock” or “the Company”) was incorporated on July 23, 2012, as Sandgate Acquisition Corporation, under the laws of the State of Delaware to engage in any lawful corporate undertaking, including, but not limited to, selected mergers and acquisitions. In July 2013, the Company implemented a change of control by issuing shares to new shareholders, redeeming shares of existing shareholders, electing new officers and directors and accepting the resignations of its then existing officers and directors. In connection with the change of control, the shareholders of the Company and its board of directors unanimously approved the change of the Company’s name from Sandgate Acquisition Corporation to Sunstock, Inc. On July 18, 2013, Jason Chang and Dr. Ramnik S Clair were named as directors of the Company.
On October 22, 2018, Sunstock, Inc. acquired all assets and liabilities of Mom’s Silver Shop, Inc. (the “Retail Store”) located in Sacramento, California.
The Company’s business plan includes the buying, selling and distribution of precious metals, primarily gold. The Company pursues a “ground to coin” strategy, whereby it seeks to acquire mining assets as well as rights to purchase mining production and to sell these metals primarily through retail channels including their own branded coins. The Company emphasizes investment in enduring assets that we believe may provide ‘resource to retail’ conversion upside. Our goal is to provide our shareholders with an exceptional opportunity to capture value in the precious metals sector without incurring many of the costs and risks associated with actual mining operations.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed and consolidated financial statements of Sunstock, Inc. were prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all disclosures required for financial statements prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
The accompanying condensed and consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2020, has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The accompanying unaudited condensed and consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2021 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes to the financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In the opinion of management, all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been made to the unaudited condensed and consolidated financial statements. The unaudited condensed and consolidated financial statements include all material adjustments (consisting of all normal accruals) necessary to make the condensed and consolidated financial statements not misleading as required by Regulation S-X Rule 10-01. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessary indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2021 or any future periods.
| 8 |
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the unaudited condensed and consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates made by the Company’s management include realizability and valuation of inventories and value of stock-based transactions.
CONCENTRATION OF RISK
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash. The Company places its cash with high quality banking institutions. The Company did not have cash balances in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
INVENTORIES
INVENTORY - COINS
The Company acquired the Retail Store in October 2018 to enter the market for collectible coins. The Company acquires collectible coins from both companies and individuals and then marks them up for resale. The inventory is recorded at lower of cost or market or net realizable value. Inventory can fluctuate in relation to when it is purchased and when it is sold. Collectible coins inventory was $458,791 at June 30, 2021 compared to $333,088 at December 31, 2020.
At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates its ending inventory quantities on hand and on order and records a provision for excess quantities and obsolescence. Among other factors, the Company considers historical demand and forecasted demand in relation to the inventory on hand, competitiveness of product offerings, market conditions and product life cycles when determining obsolescence and net realizable value. In addition, the Company considers changes in the market value of components in determining the net realizable value of its inventory. Provisions are made to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their estimated net realizable values. Once established, write-downs are considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the excess or obsolete inventories.
INVENTORY – PRECIOUS METALS
Inventories of precious metals and coins held for investment at June 30, 2021 include $655,728 of gold and silver bullion and bullion coins and $682,511 at December 31, 2020 and are acquired and initially recorded at fair market value. The fair market value of the bullion and bullion coins is comprised of two components: 1) published market values attributable to the costs of the raw precious metal, and 2) a published premium paid at acquisition of the metal. The premium is attributable to the additional value of the product in its finished goods form and the market value attributable solely to the premium may be readily determined, as it is published by multiple reputable sources such as Kitco and Apmex. The Company’s inventory is subsequently recorded at fair market values on a quarterly basis. The fair value of the inventory is determined using pricing and data derived from the markets on which the underlying commodities are traded. Precious metals commodities inventories are classified in Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy as defined later in this section. The Company has continuously experienced a shortage of cash and has had significantly past due obligations. While the Company’s preference is to hold the silver and gold bullion to achieve long-term gains, the bullion is available to pay current obligations should the Company not be able to raise cash through issuance of stock or notes payable. Thus, the Company believes that including the silver bullion in current assets under inventory is appropriate.
The change in fair value of the precious metals was included in the financial statements herein as recorded on the Company’s Statements of Operations as an unrealized gain in precious metal of $33,883 for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an unrealized gain of $84,875 for the three months ended June 30, 2020, an unrealized loss of $26,784 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and an unrealized gain of $23,910 for the six months ended June 30, 2020.
| 9 |
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 3 to 5 years. Any leasehold improvements are amortized at the lesser of the useful life of the asset or the lease term.
LONG-LIVED ASSETS
The Company reviews the carrying values of its long-lived assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the expected future cash flow from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized and measured using the fair value of the related asset. No impairment charges were incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for the Company’s services will continue, which could result in impairment of long-lived assets in the future.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company’s principal activities from which it generates revenue are product sales. Revenue is measured based on considerations specified in a contract with a customer. A contract exists when it becomes a legally enforceable agreement with a customer. These contracts define each party’s rights, payment terms and other contractual terms and conditions of the sale. Consideration is typically paid at time of sale via credit card, check, or cash when products are sold direct to consumers.
A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product to the customer, which for the Company is transfer of a product to customers. Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the goods that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the goods is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. The Company has concluded the sale of product and related shipping and handling are accounted for as the single performance obligation.
The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when or as the customer receives the benefit of the performance obligation. The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which the Company will be entitled to receive in exchange for transferring goods to the customer. We do not issue refunds.
The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation in a contract by transferring control over a product to a customer when product is shipped based on fulfillment by the Company or when a point of sale transaction is completed. Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by the Company from a customer, are excluded from revenue. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in cost of product sales. The Company does not accept returns.
| 10 |
INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes and the related accounts under the liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the income tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is applied against any net deferred tax asset if, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Therefore, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets. The Company’s income tax provision consists of state minimum taxes.
The Company recognizes any uncertain income tax positions on income tax returns at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained.
There are no unrecognized tax benefits included in the balance sheet that would, if recognized, affect the effective tax rate.
The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company had $0 accrued for interest and penalties on each of the Company’s balance sheets at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE
Basic income (loss) per share represent income (loss) available to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share reflects additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income (loss) that would result from the assumed issuance. The potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate to outstanding stock warrants and have been excluded from the computation of diluted income (loss) per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and for the three months ended June 30, 2020 because they would reduce the reported loss per share and therefore have an anti-dilutive effect.
For the six months ended June 30, 2020 there were 110,000 potentially dilutive shares that were included in the diluted income (loss) per share.
Effective July 21, 2021, the Company effected a 1,000 for 1 reverse split of its common shares (see Note 9). The weighted number of shares outstanding as of the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 on the statements of operations have been adjusted to reflect the reverse split.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company measures the fair value of certain of its financial assets on a recurring basis. A fair value hierarchy is used to rank the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices in the markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities, such as derivative liabilities in relation to the conversion feature of notes payable.
At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company’s financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, precious metals inventory, coins inventory, PPP loans, SBA loan, and accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable, precious metals inventory, coins inventory, PPP loan, SBA loan, and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
The Company has not posted operating income since inception. It has an accumulated deficit of $62,139,713 as of June 30, 2021. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, which it has not been able to accomplish to date, and /or obtain additional financing from its stockholders and/or other third parties. Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
These unaudited condensed and consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue is dependent upon financial support from its stockholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, successfully locating and negotiate with a business entity for the combination of that target company with the Company.
There is no assurance that the Company will ever be profitable. The unaudited condensed and 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 should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
In the first quarter of 2020, outstanding convertible notes payable balances as of December 31, 2019, were either converted to common stock or paid off. In relation to that, the Company had discussions with a third party in regards to raising funds through a private placement of equity. Those discussions with that third party have since been terminated. The Company intends to initiate discussions with an undetermined third party in regards to raising funds through a private placement of equity which, if it occurs, will provide the Company with funds to expand its operations and likely eliminate the going concern issue.

LITIGATION
On August 21, 2020, Boustead Securities, LLC (“Boustead”) filed suit against Sunstock, Inc. (“Sunstock”) in the County of Orange, California. Boustead is an investment banking firm engaged by Sunstock on September 19, 2019 to raise equity. Boustead maintains that Sunstock owes 87,179 shares of Preferred Stock Warrants and 9,231 shares of Common Stock Warrants. Boustead is also seeking general damages, interest, and costs of the suit. Sunstock believes that Boustead has not fulfilled its obligations in raising equity and plans to vigorously contest the suit. Sunstock has hired an arbitrator and is currently in negotiations with Boustead.
In December 2020, a former employee of Sunstock filed a claim with the California Labor Commission regarding claimed back pay owed. A preliminary hearing was held on January 4, 2021 and the Company is currently awaiting the next step.
INDEMNITIES AND GUARANTEES
The Company has made certain indemnities and guarantees, under which it may be required to make payments to a guaranteed or indemnified party, in relation to certain actions or transactions. The Company indemnifies its directors, officers, employees and agents, as permitted under the laws of the State of Delaware. In connection with its facility leases, the Company has agreed to indemnify its lessors for certain claims arising from the use of the facilities. The duration of the guarantees and indemnities varies, and is generally tied to the life of the agreement. These guarantees and indemnities do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. Historically, the Company has not been obligated nor incurred any payments for these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities and guarantees in the accompanying balance sheets.

NOTE 10 – TEMPORARY EQUITY
Shares of Series A convertible preferred stock hold conversion features providing that, at the holder’s election, the holder may convert the preferred stock into common stock. Upon conversion, the Company may be required to deliver a variable number of equity shares that is determined by using a formula based on the market price of the Company’s common stock. The right of the preferred shareholder to convert into common shares shall commence as of the date the shares are issued to the shareholder. In the event the preferred shareholder elects to convert, the preferred shareholder shall have 60 days from the date of such notice in which to render his shares of preferred stock to the Company. The conversion rate shall be the greater of (i) one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock if the market value of the common stock is at or above $1.00 per share, or (ii) if the market value of the common stock is below $1.00, a number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock equal to an amount of preferred shares multiplied by the conversion ratio of $1.00 divided by the market value, at the discretion of the preferred shareholder. Market value shall mean the closing bid price for the common stock on such previous day’s close of the common stock. The conversion rate and conversion price may be adjusted upon subdivision (by any share split, share dividend, recapitalization, for example), combination (by combination, reverse share split, for example), or any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, or other similar transaction. There is no contractual cap on the number of common shares that the Company could be required to deliver on preferred shareholders’ conversions to common stock. Accordingly, Series A preferred stock has been classified as temporary equity.
400,000 shares of Series A convertible preferred stock were converted to 400,000 shares of common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, there were no convertible Series A Preferred Shares outstanding.
There is, as of June 30, 2021, $36,326 in accrued dividends on the preferred stock.
The liquidation preference was $0 and $5,200,000 as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
NOTE 11 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company follows the guidance in FASB ASC Topic 855, Subsequent Events (“ASC 855”), which provides guidance to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the consolidated financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. ASC 855 sets forth (i) the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity evaluates events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the unaudited condensed and consolidated financial statements, (ii) the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its condensed and consolidated financial statements, and (iii) the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date.
The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve as of the date of this report. Management is actively monitoring the global situation on its financial condition, liquidity operations, suppliers, industry, and workforce. Given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 outbreak and the global responses to curb its spread, the Company is not able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on its results of operations, financial condition or liquidity for the fiscal year 2021. However, to date there has not been a decrease in sales. The Company believes that in this time of uncertainty, individuals are buying collectible coins as a safe haven. The Company is unable to predict if such buying will continue during this time of uncertainty or if the buying will decrease as events change and evolve.
On July 21, 2021, the Company effected a 1,000 for 1 reverse stock split of its common shares. The reverse split has been reflected in the financial statements and notes for the current period ended June 30, 2021 and all prior periods.

Going Concern
The Company has not posted operating income and has not generated cash from operations since inception. It has an accumulated deficit of $62,139,713 as of June 30, 2021. The Company did not generate cash flow from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020. Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, which it has not been able to accomplish to date, and /or obtain additional financing from its stockholders and/or other third parties.
These unaudited condensed and consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next fiscal year. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon financial support from its stockholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, successfully locating and negotiate with a business entity for the combination of that target company with the Company.
There is no assurance that the Company will ever be profitable. The 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 should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
In the first quarter of 2020, outstanding convertible notes payable balances as of December 31, 2019, were either converted to common stock or paid off. In relation to that, the Company had discussions with a third party in regards to raising funds through a private placement of equity. Those discussions with that third party have since been terminated. The Company intends to initiate discussions with an undetermined third party in regards to raising funds through a private placement of equity which, if it occurs, will provide the Company with funds to expand its operations and likely eliminate the going concern issue.
Critical Accounting Policies
There have been no material changes from the critical accounting policies as previously discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Unrealized gain on investments in precious metals decreased to $33,883 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $84,875 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 due to the drop in price of bullion at June 30, 2021 from March 31, 2021.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Information not required to be filed by Smaller reporting companies.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Management must evaluate its internal controls over financial reporting, as required by Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Section 404 (a). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles or GAAP.
As of June 30, 2021, management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in the 2013 Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on that evaluation, they concluded that, during the period covered by this report, such internal controls and procedures were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of GAAP rules as more fully described below. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that adversely affected its internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.
| 22 |
Material Weaknesses:
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
The material weaknesses identified are:
1. the Company does not have accounting personnel that have adequate technical accounting skills to identify terms in agreements that would have material accounting implications on the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP, such as permanent vs. temporary equity treatment of the Company’s preferred stock in accordance with ASC 480.
2.the Company does not obtain and retain supporting documentation over the precious metal trade dates and quantities traded and does not properly record the realized gain/loss on the trade according to the fair market value of the items traded on a given date.
3.the Company has an inadequate number of personnel that could accurately and timely record and report the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP.
4. the Company does not perform formal risk assessments over financial reporting and does not evaluate its internal control processes.
Notwithstanding the existence of these material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, we believe that the financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Further, we do not believe the material weaknesses identified had an impact on prior financial statements.
| 23 |
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES (CONTINUED)
Material Weaknesses:
Remediation:
As part of our ongoing remedial efforts, we have and will continue to, among other things:
1. Expand our accounting policy and controls organization by hiring qualified accounting and finance personnel;
2. Increase our efforts to educate both our existing and expanded accounting policy and control organization on the application of the internal control structure;
3. Emphasize with management the importance of our internal control structure;
4. Seek outside consulting services where our existing accounting policy and control organization believes the complexity of the existing exceeds our internal capabilities.
5. Plan to implement improved accounting systems.
We believe that the foregoing actions will improve our internal control over financial reporting, as well as our disclosure controls and procedures. When funds permit, we intend to perform such procedures and commit such resources as necessary to continue to allow us to overcome or mitigate these material weaknesses such that we can make timely and accurate quarterly and annual financial filings until such time as those material weaknesses are fully addressed and remediated.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during its current fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.
