NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2019
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Astika Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”) is a Florida corporation in the development stage. The Company is preparing to relaunch the Company through a variety of strategic acquisitions in the textile, service, and/or industrial sectors to complement and capture the next wave of growth companies from Asia and New Zealand.
NOTE 2- GOING CONCERN ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT PLANS
The Company’s unaudited interim financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has an accumulated deficit and no cash flows from operating activities at September 30, 2019. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenue sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plans focus is on a variety of strategic acquisitions in service, agriculture and industrial companies to compliment and grow Astika Holdings, Inc.’s business. The Company is positioning to capture the next wave of growth companies from Asia. As the centerpieces for Astika Holdings in Asia, the focus is on rapid economic growth and increased foreign investment sector companies which management believes is poised for accelerated economic growth with national modernization. Astika’s planned focus is also on adding value through successful project development, efficient operations, and opportunistic acquisitions while maintaining a low risk profile through project diversification, astute financial management and operating in secure jurisdictions. Management’s plan to obtain such resources for the Company include (i) obtaining capital from management and significant stockholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses; (ii) obtaining funding from outside sources through the sale of its debt and/or equity securities; and (iii) completing a merger with or acquisition of an existing operating company. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for the presentation of interim financial information, but do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2018 financial statements that were filed in our annual report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2019.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Stock-Based Compensation
We recognize compensation cost for stock-based awards to employees in accordance with ASC Topic 718, over the requisite service period for each separately vesting tranche, as if multiple awards were granted. Compensation cost is based on grant-date fair value using quoted market prices for our common stock. We recognize compensation cost for stock-based awards to nonemployees in accordance with ASC Topic 505.
Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share
The Company computes earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share” (ASC 260). Under the provisions of ASC 260, basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common and potentially dilutive shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The Company had net losses as of September 30, 2019 and 2018, as such, the diluted loss per share excludes all dilutive potential shares because their effect is anti-dilutive.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements” (ASC 820) and ASC 825, “Financial Instruments” (ASC 825), requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. It establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument's categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. It prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 - Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
Level 3 - Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The carrying values of cash, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate fair value. Pursuant to ASC 820 and 825, the fair value of cash is determined based on "Level 1" inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. ASU 2018-07 expands the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. ASU 2018-07 also clarifies that Topic 718 does not apply to share-based payments used to effectively provide (1) financing to the issuer or (2) awards granted in conjunction with selling goods or services to customers as part of a contract accounted for under Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2018-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt the provisions of ASU 2018-07 in the quarter beginning January 1, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2018-07 does not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statement presentation or disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (“Topic 820”): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”). The ASU modifies the disclosure requirements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, by removing certain disclosure requirements related to the fair value hierarchy, modifying existing disclosure requirements related to measurement uncertainty and adding new disclosure requirements, such as disclosing the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and disclosing the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. This ASU is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2018-13 to have a material impact on its financial statements.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had 29,890,066 and 29,890,066 shares of common stock, and 2,090,000 and 2,090,000 preferred shares, issued and outstanding, respectively.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company did not issue any additional shares of common stock. As of September 30, 2019, no preferred shares have been converted to shares of common stock.
Convertible Preferred Stock
In December 2017, the Company issued 1,210,000 shares of its Series B convertible preferred stock at a price of $0.30 per share for gross proceeds of $363,000 and issued 380,000 shares of its Series B convertible preferred stock at a price of $0.40 per share for gross proceeds of $152,000. In December 2017, the Company also issued 500,000 shares of its Series B convertible preferred stock to a third party as compensation, totaling $160,000, for his consulting services. The Series B shareholders are entitled, at their option, at any time after the issuance of the Series B convertible preferred stock, to convert all or any lesser portion of their shares into the Company’s common stock at a conversion ratio 0.2 and at a price of $1.59 per share.
The holders of the Series B convertible preferred stock have the following rights and privileges:
• | Optional Conversion Rights |
Each share of
Series B convertible preferred stock is convertible at the option of the holder into 0.2 shares of common stock at a price of $1.59 per share. The conversion price per share for the convertible preferred stock shall be adjusted for certain recapitalizations, splits, combinations, and common stock dividends or as set forth in the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation. As of September 30, 2019, none of the Series B convertible preferred stock has been converted to common stock.
Each share of convertible preferred stock has 0.2 votes equal to the number of shares of common stock into which it is convertible.
There are no redemption rights afforded to the holders of convertible preferred stock. Upon certain change in control events that are outside of the Company’s control, including liquidation, sale or transfer of control of the Company, the convertible preferred stock is contingently redeemable.
The holders of the Series B convertible preferred stock are not entitled to receive dividends and have the same liquidation rights that are possessed by the holders of the Company’s common stock.
The Company evaluated whether or not the Series B convertible preferred stock above contained embedded conversion options, which meet the definition of derivatives under ASC Topic 815. The Company concluded that since the above convertible preferred shares had a fixed conversion rate, the convertible preferred shares were not derivative instruments.
The convertible preferred shares were analyzed to determine if the convertible preferred shares have an embedded beneficial conversion feature (BCF). Based on this analysis, the Company concluded that the effective conversion price was greater than the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the issuance dates and therefore no BCF was recorded.
The Company recorded its convertible preferred stock at fair value on the dates of issuance, net of issuance costs. The total fair value of the convertible preferred stock on the date of issuance and as of September 30, 2019 was $201,809. As of September 30, 2019, there are a total of 2,090,000 shares of
Series B convertible preferred stock authorized, issued and outstanding.
NOTE 7 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Consultant will attempt to recruit a lead licensed Broker or Dealer and other selling syndicate partners.
The Company has evaluated subsequent events that have occurred after the date of the balance sheet through the date of issuance of these financial statements and determined that no other subsequent event requires recognition or disclosure to the financial statements.

Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this report. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this report. We believe it is important to communicate our expectations. However, our management disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
These forward-looking statements are based on our management’s current expectations and beliefs and involve numerous risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations. You should not rely upon these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events because we cannot assure you that the events or circumstances reflected in these statements will be achieved or will occur. You can identify a forward-looking statement by the use of the forward-terminology, including words such as “may”, “will”, “believes”, “anticipates”, “estimates”, “expects”, “continues”, “should”, “seeks”, “intends”, “plans”, and/or words of similar import, or the negative of these words and phrases or other variations of these words and phrases or comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements relate to, among other things: our sales, results of operations and anticipated cash flows; capital expenditures; depreciation and amortization expenses; sales, general and administrative expenses; our ability to maintain and develop relationship with our existing and potential future customers; and, our ability to maintain a level of investment that is required to remain competitive. Many factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected in these forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to: variability of our revenues and financial performance; risks associated with technological changes; the acceptance of our products in the marketplace by existing and potential customers; disruption of operations or increases in expenses due to our involvement with litigation or caused by civil or political unrest or other catastrophic events; general economic conditions, government mandates; and, the continued employment of our key personnel and other risks associated with competition.
Overview The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on January 13, 2011. We are refocusing and preparing to relaunch the Company through a variety of strategic acquisitions in the textile, service, agricultural, and/or industrial sectors to complement and capture the next wave of growth companies from Asia and New Zealand. There can be no assurance that we will succeed in our efforts.
Results of Operations for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 Compared to the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018
Revenues
The Company’s revenues were $0 for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018.
General and Administrative Expenses General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2019 were $63,702 as compared to $7,667 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, and $84,501 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $26,950 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. General and administrative expenses increased primarily due to the higher consulting fees related to the Company’s acquisition and financing activities.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has had only nominal operations and does not have any cash generated from business operations. We funded our operating expenses by issuing notes to related and unrelated parties and borrowing loans from our related parties. During the year ended December 31, 2017, we also issued convertible preferred stock for gross proceeds of $515,000. Our plan is to obtain financing from various investors and complete our acquisition project.
As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had working capital deficits of $209,278 and $124,721, respectively.
The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenue sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plans focus on a variety of strategic acquisitions in service, agriculture and industrial companies to complement and grow its business. The Company is positioning to capture the next wave of growth companies from Asia. The Company’s planned focus is also on adding value through successful project development, efficient operations, and opportunistic acquisitions while maintaining a low risk profile through project diversification, astute financial management and operating in secure jurisdictions. to obtain such resources for the Company include (i) obtaining capital from management and significant stockholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses; (ii) obtaining funding from outside sources through the sale of its debt and/or equity securities; and (iii) completing a merger with or acquisition of an existing operating company. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty.
Net Cash Used in Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $166,530 for the
nine months ended September 30, 2019. Net cash provided by operating activities was $31,693 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 due to the decrease in prepaid expense of $42,101.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities
The net cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was $0.
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $166,530. Net cash used in financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $31,693 due to payback of a related party’s loan in the amount of $42,101.
Availability of Additional Funds
Based on our working capital deficit as of September 30, 2019 and zero revenues, we expect to need additional equity and/or debt financing to continue our operations during the next 12 months. We expect that our current cash on hand will not fund our operations through December 2020.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our unaudited interim financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of unaudited interim financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited interim financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Our significant estimates and assumptions include amortization, the fair value of our stock, and the valuation allowance relating to the Company’s deferred tax assets.
Material Commitments
There were no material commitments during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. ASU 2018-07 expands the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. ASU 2018-07 also clarifies that Topic 718 does not apply to share-based payments used to effectively provide (1) financing to the issuer or (2) awards granted in conjunction with selling goods or services to customers as part of a contract accounted for under Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2018-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt the provisions of ASU 2018-07 in the quarter beginning January 1, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2018-07 does not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statement presentation or disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (“Topic 820”): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”). The ASU modifies the disclosure requirements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, by removing certain disclosure requirements related to the fair value hierarchy, modifying existing disclosure requirements related to measurement uncertainty and adding new disclosure requirements, such as disclosing the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and disclosing the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. This ASU is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2018-13 to have a material impact on its financial statements.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2019, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Disclosure under this section is not required for a smaller reporting company.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our President and Treasurer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and in reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President and Treasurer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of our third fiscal quarter covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our President and Treasurer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2019. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
Management's Remediation Initiatives
In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we plan to initiate the following series of measures once we have the financial resources to do so:
▪ | We will create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and will increase our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function when funds are available to us. And, we plan to appoint one or more outside directors to an audit committee resulting in a fully functioning audit committee, which will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, such as reviewing and approving estimates and assumptions made by management when funds are available to us. |
| |
▪ | Management believes that the appointment of outside directors to a fully functioning audit committee would remedy the lack of a functioning audit committee. |
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report, which were identified in connection with management’s evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
