PART I

Item 1. Description of Business.

International Land Alliance, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Wyoming on September 26, 2013 (inception). On June 30, 2011, International Land Alliance, SA De CV (“ILA Mexico”) was formed as a Mexican corporation to acquire from Baja Residents Club, S.A., a related-party Mexican corporation, 497 acres south of San Felipe, Baja California, known as the Oasis Park project and 20 acres in Ensenada, Baja California, known as the Valle Divino project. On October 1, 2013 Roberto Jesus Valdez, Jason A. Sunstein and Elizabeth Roemer transferred their interest in Oasis Park and Valle Divino real estate projects to ILA Mexico in exchange for 7,500 shares of ILA Mexico. On October 1, 2013, we issued 3,750,000 shares of our common stock to Roberto Jesus Valdez, 3,750,000 shares of our common stock to Jason Sunstein and 1,000,000 shares of our common stock to Elizabeth Roemer in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of ILA Mexico. As a result of this transaction, ILA Mexico became our wholly owned subsidiary.

On March 5, 2019, the Company received its trading symbol “ILAL” from FINRA. On April 4, 2019, the Company was approved to have its common stock traded on the OTCQB. On April 12, 2019, the Company became eligible for electronic clearing and settlement through the Depositary Trust Company (“DTC”) in the United States.

On March 18, 2019, the Company acquired real property located in Hemet, California, which included approximately 80 acres of land and two structures for $1.1 million. The property includes the main parcel of land with existing structures along with three additional parcels of land which are vacant lots to be used for the purpose of development. The Company was generating lease income from this property up until October 1, 2021, at which point, the Company recognized revenue from the sale of 20 acres of land pursuant to ASC 606.

In October 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with Valdeland, S.A. de C.V.(“Valdeland”), a Mexican corporation controlled by our CEO, Robert Valdes, to acquire 1 acre of land at the Bajamar Ocean Front Golf Resort in Ensenada, Baja California, known as the Plaza Bajamar. The transfer of title to for this project is subject to approval from the Mexican government in Baja California. Although management believes that the transfer of title to the land will be approved and transferred by the end of our second fiscal quarter of 2022, there is no assurance that such transfer of title will be approved in that time frame or at all.

On July 2020, the Company filed the Articles of Organization with the California Secretary of State for Emerald Grove Estates, LLC (“Emerald Estates”). Emerald Estates is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The purpose of Emerald Estates is agriculture and land development. On January 27, 2021, Jason Sunstein and ILAL granted the deed of the property in Sycamore Road, Hemet, California to Emerald Grove Estates LLC.

On October 25, 2020, the Company entered into a business agreement with A&F Agriculture LLC (“A&F”), in which the parties agreed to operate a business for the purpose of commercially cultivating industrial hemp at the Company’s property in Southern California. A&F will be the managing party of the business agreement. The Company will provide A&F with the land and water supply for the purpose of the cultivation. All revenue and expenses associated with the cultivation will be split equally among parties. Franck Ingrande is the Manager of A&F and is also the President of the Company.

On December 14, 2021, the Company executed a rescission agreement with A&F, which terminated any and all of its interest, directly or indirectly, in the lease of a small portion of its land in Southern California for the growing of hemp. The Company, who is a developer of land for resorts and commercial buildings, will begin subdividing the property for the construction of residential homes. The Company was never in the hemp business and acted strictly as a lessor. Pursuant to the rescission agreement the Company will be paid $150,000 over the next two years, which includes $100,000 previously loaned to the venture for the purposes of improvements to the property.

On March 29, 2021, the Company executed a Letter of Intent (the “LOI”) to acquire two parcels of land in Rosarito Beach, Baja California, Mexico, with total surface area of roughly 32 acres valued at approximately $6 million. The all-stock transaction includes plans and permits for an existing 450-homesite project situated near the Pacific Ocean, with existing sales averaging $50,000 per residential plot. The LOI includes the accounts receivable for plots sold and the remaining unsold plots. The closing is subject to standard conditions including, completion of due diligence by both parties and the negotiation and execution of mutually acceptable definitive documents. The Agreement merely represents the present understanding with respect to the intended acquisition transaction and is not binding upon the parties. Due to continuing impact of Covid-19, the Seller’s ability to subdivide the master parcel has been delayed. Due to continued impact of COVID-19, the seller was not able to get the subdivision permits and the time outlined in the LOI expired, as such the Company is no longer pursuing this opportunity.

Overview

We are a residential land development company with target properties located primarily in the Baja California Northern region of Mexico. Our principal activities are purchasing properties, obtaining zoning and other entitlements required to subdivide the properties into residential and commercial building lots, securing financing for the purchase of the lots, improving the properties’ infrastructure and amenities, and selling the lots to homebuyers, retirees, investors, and commercial developers. We offer the option of financing (i.e. taking a promissory note from the buyer for all or part of the purchase price) with a guaranteed acceptance on any purchase for every customer.

Industry Overview

Mexico’s real estate industry has experienced a wave of growth brought about by foreign investment with the creation of investment trusts in 1993 (“fideicomiso”) and significant changes in regulations, primarily NAFTA in 1994, along with competitive land prices and the significant expansion of new business centers and factories (“Maquiladoras”) across the country over the last 10 years.

Most recently, this continued growth was fueled by Mexico´s enormously strong domestic market, particularly the rising middle class. In 2018, the country’s middle class was estimated to account for almost half of the total households, at about 16 million. They are expected to continue growing, with about 3.8 million more households projected to move into the middle class by 2030. Moreover, most Mexicans who move generally prefer to buy rather than to rent. Around 82% of Mexicans want to buy a property, as opposed to 18% that prefer to rent, according to Lamudi’s recent Real Estate Market Report 2018.

In addition to a strong domestic market, demand has also been fueled by international buyers from California seeking affordable retirement alternatives.  Due to a serious housing shortage, CoreLogic data show the median price of a Southern California home, or the price at the midpoint of all sales, was $706,000 in February 2022, up 15.4% from February 2021. That’s a 12-month gain of $94,000, equivalent to a price hike of $1,800 every week.  Prices hit or tied all-time highs in all but one county, Los Angeles, in the six-county region.

Market Opportunity

For years, U.S. and Canadian retirees have flocked to Mexico as an alternative overseas retirement destination that was affordable, offered desirable weather and was close to their communities of origin in North America. These attributes have made Mexico the top overseas retirement destination for older Americans, resulting in a building boom that reached its peak in 2005/06 and stretched from Playas de Tijuana-Rosarito and Los Cabos along the Baja California peninsula and from Puerto Peñasco, Sonora to Mazatlán, Sinaloa. In southern Mexico, the real estate focus has been on expanding the Cancún corridor to the Riviera Maya.

Mexico remains a viable retirement option for Americans aged 50 years and over, offering a reduced cost of living, lower health care expenses, and proximity to friends and family in the United States. In addition, over half of survey respondents observed that their motivation to purchase a home in Mexico was based on their desire to have a home on or near the coast that would otherwise be unattainable in the United States.

In addition to U.S. and Canadian citizens, Baja California has seen a noticeable increase in business from Japan and Europe. With the interest in Baja expected to continue along with Mexico’s overall economic growth, we will be well positioned to offer prospective homebuyers and investors a luxurious residence with breathtaking views for an affordable price.

Target Market

The Company’s projects will be marketed toward residents of the United States and Canada. Specifically, we will target the influx of Maquiladoras (manufacturing facilities run by a foreign company) moving to Mexico as well as the residents of California, Texas, Arizona and Washington for the purpose of appealing to their need for a second home or retirement property within driving distance from Southern California. The targeted market includes residents making over $50,000 or a combined household income of $150,000.

Our target home buyers are typically professionals who own an existing property. Many are married without children or married with several children. The target audience enjoys a vacation away from home and often seeks information regarding villas or condominiums as a second home or vacation destination. We plan to provide them with an affordable location for a vacation home in a community that surpasses all their expectations.

Growth Strategy

We believe that growth of homebuilders in Mexico has created opportunities for smaller companies with long-term experience and relationships in their local markets. We believe that we can utilize our many strengths to benefit our target market. These strengths include:

It is our plan to utilize these advantages to move more quickly and address the needs of those in our target market, especially retirees looking to purchase a home in Mexico.

Competition

The Mexican public real estate market is fragmented and highly competitive. We compete with numerous developers, builders, and others for the acquisition of property and with local, regional, and national developers, homebuilders, and others with respect to the sale of residential properties. We also compete with builders and developers to obtain financing on commercially reasonable terms.

The Company is also subject to competition from other entities engaged in the business of resort development, sales and operation, including vacation interval ownership, condominiums, hotels and motels. Some of the world’s most recognized lodging, hospitality and entertainment companies have begun to develop and sell resort properties in the Baja California area. Many of these entities possess significantly greater financial, marketing and other resources than those of the Company. Management believes that recent regulatory developments in the electricity industry and overall growth in the Mexican economy will increase competition in the real estate investment industry.

The Company is in the process of acquiring properties, as well as developing its marketing and sales strategy. The Company is also developing an interactive website and help center to answer questions from potential home buyers.

Intellectual Property

We currently have no patents, copyrights, trademarks and/or service marks, nor do we have any plans to file applications for such rights.

Government Regulation

The housing and land development industries are subject to increasing environmental, building, zoning, and real estate sales regulations by various authorities. Such regulations affect home building by specifying, among other things, the type and quality of building materials that must be used, certain aspects of land use and building design. Some regulations affect development activities by directly affecting the viability and timing of projects.

We must obtain the approval of numerous governmental authorities that regulate such matters as land use and level of density, the installation of utility services, such as water and waste disposal, and the dedication of acreage for open space, parks, schools and other community purposes. If these authorities determine that existing utility services will not adequately support proposed development, building moratoria may be imposed. As a result, we use substantial resources to evaluate the impact of government restrictions imposed upon new residential development. Furthermore, as local circumstances or applicable laws change, we may be required to obtain additional approvals or modifications of approvals previously obtained or we may be forced to stop work. These increasing regulations may result in a significant increase in resources between our initial acquisition of land and the commencement and the completion of developments. In addition, the extent to which we participate in land development activities subjects us to greater exposure to regulatory risks.

Additionally, the Mexican real estate industry is subject to substantially different regulation than the U.S. real estate industry. The Mexican constitution of 1917 prohibited foreign ownership of residential real property within approximately 31 miles (approximately 50 km) of any coastline and 62 miles (approximately 100 km) of its natural borders. All of Baja California is included in this “restricted zone.” In 1971 (further expanded in 1989 and 1993) provisions were made for a mechanism that would allow foreigners to own property in the “restricted zone.” Within the “restricted zone,” a foreigner can purchase the beneficial interest in real property through a bank trust or “fideicomiso.” Thus, virtually all property in Mexico is available for purchase by foreigners, keeping in mind that the fideicomiso, or bank trust, must be used when acquiring property within the restricted zone.

In this bank trust, the buyer of the property is designated as the “fideicomisario” or the beneficiary of the trust. While legal title is held by the bank, (specifically the trustee of the trust or the “fiduciario,”) the trustee must administer the property in accordance with the instructions of the buyer (the beneficiary of the trust). The property is not an asset of the bank and the trustee is obligated to follow every lawful instruction given by the beneficiary to perform legal actions, i.e. rent it, make improvements, sell it, etc.

As long as the foreign buyer of the property adheres to laws and ordinances of Mexico and agrees not to invoke the protection of the government of his country, he may exercise the same rights as a Mexican national with regard to the use of his property.

Employees

As of the date of this filing, we have four employees, three of whom are the Company’s executive officers.

We have, currently and will continue to use independent contractors to assist us in marketing and selling our products.

Recent Developments

Subsequent to December 31, 2021, the Company issued 814,714 shares of common stock pursuant to a consulting agreement executed on April 1, 2016, with an estimated fair value of approximately $447,000. Such issuance relates to advisory services in connection with potential acquisitions, product development, marketing & promotion of the Company’s real estate properties. Such liability was included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021.

Subsequent to December 31, 2021, the Company executed a consulting and real estate sales agreement with an initial six-month term. Pursuant to such contract, the Company issued 600,000 options to purchase common stock of the Company at $0.001 strike price. The consultant immediately exercised the options and the Company issued 600,000 shares of Common Stock.

Subsequent to December 31, 2021, the Company executed three securities purchase agreements with three investors, which included (i) the issuance of three promissory notes for total principal amount of $616,200 and net funding of $522,500 and (ii) 687,500 warrants to purchase an equivalent number of Common Stock at a strike price of $0.80. In connection with the securities purchase agreements, the Company also issued a total of 450,000 commitment shares fully earned on issuance. Two of the promissory notes are convertible into the Company’s common stock at a fixed conversion rate upon an event of default. One of the convertible notes, is convertible at a discounted price to the closing bid price of the Company.

COVID-19 Pandemic

In December 2019, an outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus originated in Wuhan, China (“COVID-19”) and has since spread worldwide, including to the United States (the “U.S.”) and Mexico, posing public health risks that have reached pandemic proportions (the “COVID-19 Pandemic”). The outbreak of COVID-19 (in particular the new and evolving strains) continues to grow both in the U.S., Mexico and globally and related government and private sector responsive actions may adversely affect our business operations. The outbreak of COVID-19 affected our sales process with travel limitations imposed by the State of California and the U.S. for international border crossing. This limits sales prospects from visiting our properties in Baja California from our primary target market, Southern California. This outbreak has also resulted in reduced customer traffic from surrounding areas within Baja California and the temporary reduction of sales office operating hours. These developments have negatively impacted sales and gross margin. While management reasonably expects the COVID-19 outbreak to negatively impact the Company’s financial condition, operating results, and timing and amounts of cash flows, the related financial consequences and duration are highly uncertain. 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

An investment in our securities is highly speculative and subject to numerous and substantial risks. Readers are encouraged to review these risks carefully before making any investment decision.

In addition to the other information provided in this filing, you should carefully consider the following risk factors in evaluating our business before purchasing any of our common stock. All material risks are discussed in this section.

Risks Related to Our Company

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we do not continue as a going concern, investors will lose their entire investment.

The Company has accumulated deficit of $14,703,818 as of December 31, 2021, and never operated at a profit and its loss for the year ended December 31, 2021, was $5,062,062. This loss and deficit may impact the future of the Company in many ways including, but not limited to, making it more difficult to borrow money, sell stock or to maintain a good trading price for our common stock.

Our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Our auditor’s report reflects that the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to repay or refinance our obligations, to raise additional capital and, ultimately, the achievement of significant operating revenues. If we are unable to continue as a going concern, stockholders will lose their investment. We will be required to seek additional capital to fund future growth and expansion. No assurance can be given that such financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on commercially favorable terms. Moreover, favorable financing may be dilutive to investors.

The impact of any deterioration in the U.S. economy as a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak may negatively affect our business.

A continued deterioration in the U.S. economy as a result of the coronavirus outbreak could result in continued turmoil. The continued impact of this event on our business and the severity of an economic crisis is uncertain. It is possible that a crisis (such as the coronavirus outbreak) in the U.S. economy could continue to adversely affect our business, vendors and prospects as well as our liquidity and financial condition.

If COVID-19, or another highly infectious or contagious disease is not successfully contained, we could experience a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow. Among the factors outside our control that are likely to affect the impact the COVID-19 pandemic will ultimately have on our business are:

We are continuing to monitor the spread of COVID-19, new novel strains and related risks, although the rapid development and fluidity of situation precludes any prediction as to its ultimate impact on us. However, if the spread continues, cities and states re-institute travel restrictions, shut downs or other mandates, such impact could grow and our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be materially adversely affected.

Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws limit the liability of, and provide indemnification for, our officers and directors.

Our Certificate of Incorporation generally limits our officers’ and directors’ personal liability to the Company and its stockholders for breach of fiduciary duty as an officer or director except for breach of the duty of loyalty or acts or omissions not made in good faith, or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law. Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, provide indemnification for our officers and directors to the fullest extent authorized by the Wyoming Business Corporation Act against all expense, liability, and loss, including attorney’s fees, judgments, fines excise taxes or penalties and amounts to be paid in settlement reasonably incurred or suffered by an officer or director in connection with any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil or criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a “Proceeding”) to which the officer or director is made a party or is threatened to be made a party, or in which the officer or director is involved by reason of the fact that he is or was an officer or director of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company whether the basis of the Proceeding is an alleged action in an official capacity as an officer or director, or in any other capacity while serving as an officer or director. Thus, the Company may be prevented from recovering damages for certain alleged errors or omissions by the officers and directors for liabilities incurred in connection with their good faith acts for the Company. Such an indemnification payment might deplete the Company’s assets. Stockholders who have questions regarding the fiduciary obligations of the officers and directors of the Company should consult with independent legal counsel. It is the position of the Securities and Exchange Commission that exculpation from and indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations there under, is against public policy and therefore unenforceable.

We will need additional capital, which we may be unable to obtain.

Our capital requirements in connection with our development activities of our residential property’s operations have been and will continue to be significant. As of December 31, 2021, we do expect to require additional funding in order to continue development. construction of model homes, infra structure and amenities and marketing activities associated with our different properties. Our current cash position will not be sufficient to fund any future plans and to accelerate our commercialization efforts. There can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

We have a potential conflict of interest with a company controlled by one of our officers and directors.

We have and will continue to enter into agreements with firms owned or controlled by our officers and directors. A conflict of interest will arise should a dispute occur with the respect of our rights and obligations pursuant to the agreements and those firms. Under Wyoming law a conflict of interest transaction is not voidable if the transaction was fair at the time it was entered into or is approved in advance by the vote of the board of directors not having an interest in the transaction if the material facts of the transaction and the director’s interest are disclosed or known to the board prior to the vote. Each officer and director owe a fiduciary duty to the Company to present business opportunities to the Company. We do not believe, however, that the fiduciary duties or contractual obligations of our officers or directors to other entities will materially affect our ability to identify and pursue business opportunities or to complete our initial business objectives.

We are dependent on the sale of our securities or debt to fund our operations.

We are dependent on the sale of our securities or debt to fund our operations and will remain so until we generate sufficient revenues to pay for our operating costs. Our officers and directors have made no written commitments with respect to providing a source of liquidity in the form of cash advances, loans and/or financial guarantees. There can be no guarantee that we will be able to successfully sell our equity or debt securities.

Our lack of operations makes evaluating our business difficult.

We have almost seven years of operational history. Accordingly, our operations are subject to the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including access to capital, successful implementation of our business plan and limited revenue from operations. We cannot assure you that our intended activities or plan of operation will be successful or result in revenue or profit to us and any failure to implement our business plan may have a material adverse effect on the business of the Company.

To be profitable, we must:

We may not be successful in accomplishing these objectives. Further, our lack of operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our business and prospects. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, uncertainties, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of development, particularly companies in highly competitive industries. The historical information in this report may not be indicative of our future financial condition and future performance. For example, we expect that our future annual growth rate in revenues will be moderate and likely be less than the growth rates experienced in the early part of our history.

Risks Related to Our Business

There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to complete development of its proposed properties and profitably sell any units.

The Company has acquired properties and thereafter, the Company intends to construct and develop proposed resort properties as well as other residential and commercial property. There can be no assurance that the Company will complete the expected development plans or undertake to develop other resorts or complete such development if undertaken. Risks associated with the Company’s development and construction activities may include the risks that: (i) acquisition and/or development opportunities may be abandoned; (ii) construction costs of a property may exceed original estimates, possibly making the resort uneconomical or unprofitable; and (iii) construction may not be completed on schedule, resulting in decreased revenues and increased carrying cost such as taxes and interest expense. In addition, the Company’s construction activities will typically be performed by third-party contractors, the timing, quality and completion of which the Company will be unable to control.

Investors will have no discretion in management’s real estate investment decisions.

Our management will have complete discretion in making investments on our behalf in a range of real estate, which may include all types of properties. Consequently, prospective investors will not be able to evaluate for themselves the merits of the specific properties that may be acquired in the future and may not like the properties acquired. You will not be entitled to a return of your investment if you do not approve the properties purchased. Our investment decisions are not made through reliance on sophisticated mathematical models or arbitrage programs. Instead, investors are relying on the judgment of our management alone to locate suitable properties that meet our investment criteria.

Our proposed ownership of real estate may result in losses if demand for property declines.

From our current real estate projects and any future real estate project acquired, we will be subject to risks incident to the ownership of real estate, including: changes in general economic or local conditions, such as a decrease in demand for residential, commercial and industrial space due to a decrease in population or employment or changes in technology or adverse downturns in the general economy; changes to preferences that reduce the attractiveness of our properties to end users; fluctuation in mortgage rates, building ownership or operating expenses; rises and falls in undeveloped land values; costs of infrastructure, construction or other development costs; changes in supply or demand of competing properties in an area; changes in interest rates, zoning and other governmental regulations and availability of permanent mortgage funds that may render the sale of a property difficult or unattractive; increases in the cost of adequate maintenance, insurance and other operating costs, including real estate taxes, associated with one or more properties, which may occur even when a property is not generating revenue; inflation; and changes in tax laws and rates. A negative change in any of these risks could reduce the demand for any properties we may acquire and a reduction in demand could result in a loss to us in the operation of or upon the sale of any such properties we may acquire.

Property improvement costs are difficult to estimate and if costs exceed our budget, we may lose money on the development and sale of a property.

Acquisition of any properties for improvement, repositioning and sale entails risks such as those contemplated by us that include the following, any of which could adversely affect our financial performance and the value of your investment: Our estimate of the costs of improving or repositioning an acquired property may prove to be too low, and, as a result, the property may fail to meet our estimates of the profitability of the property, either temporarily or for a longer time. Our pre-acquisition evaluation of each new investment may not detect certain requirements, limitations, defects or necessary improvements until after the property is acquired, which could significantly increase our total costs.

Our real estate development strategies may not be successful which could reduce our revenues or lead to the loss of your investment.

We may in the future engage in development activities to the extent attractive development projects become available. To the extent that we engage in development activities, we will be subject to risks associated with those activities that could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and ability to pay distributions on, and the market price of, our common stock, including, but not limited to:

Moreover, substantial development activities, regardless of their ultimate success, typically require a significant amount of management’s time and attention, diverting their attention from our other operations.

The real estate market is cyclical, and a downturn of the market could increase the risk of loss of your investment.

Investment in real estate involves a high degree of business and financial risk, which can result in substantial losses and accordingly should be considered speculative. The market for property in Mexico and the United States tends to be cyclical, with periods in which the prices of properties rise and fall. Prices have fallen in the past and have done so for a significant period of time. Any downturn in the real estate market in the U.S. or Mexico may have a negative effect on our operations and reduce any return generated upon the sale of our property.

Many real estate costs are fixed and must be paid even if the property is not generating revenue which could increase your risk of loss of your investment.

Our financial results depend primarily on being able to add value and then sell properties to others on favorable terms. Many costs associated with real estate investment, such as debt service, real estate taxes and maintenance costs, generally are not reduced even when a property is not fully improved or used. Thus, even a small increase in the time to which a real estate property can be sold can result in a significant increase in the carry costs of the property. New properties that we may acquire may not produce any significant revenue immediately, and the cash flow from existing operations may be insufficient to pay the operating expenses and debt service associated with that property until the property is sold.

Because there is no liquid market for our properties, we may be unable to sell a property when it planned to, which could increase your risk of loss of your investment.

Liquidity relates to our ability to sell a property in a timely manner at a price that reflects the fair value of that property. The illiquidity of properties may adversely affect our ability to dispose of such properties in a timely manner and at a fair price at times when we deem it necessary or advantageous. The timing and likelihood of liquidation events is uncertain and unpredictable and affected by general economic and property-specific conditions. There may not be a market, or the market may be very limited, for the real estate that we will try to sell, even though we will make appropriate efforts to cover the available market. Investments in real properties are generally not liquid. We may not be able to dispose of future properties within its anticipated time schedule and the sales of such properties may not be made at the prices projected by us.

We are subject to zoning and environmental controls that may restrict the use of our property.

Governmental zoning and land use regulations may exist or be promulgated that could have the effect of restricting or curtailing certain uses of our real estate. Such regulations could adversely affect the value of any of our properties affected by such regulations. In recent years real estate values have also sometimes been adversely affected by the presence of hazardous substances or toxic waste on, under or in the environs of the property. A substance (or the amount of a substance) may be considered safe at the time the property is purchased but later classified by law as hazardous. Owners of properties have been liable for substantial expenses to remedy chemical contamination of soil and groundwater at their properties even if the contamination predated their ownership. Although we intend to exercise reasonable efforts to assure that no properties are acquired that give rise to such liabilities, chemical contamination cannot always be detected through readily available means, and the possibility of such liability cannot be excluded.

Under various foreign, federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, we may be required to investigate and clean up certain hazardous or toxic substances released on or in properties we own or operate, and also may be required to pay other costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances. This liability may be imposed without regard to whether we knew about the release of these types of substances or were responsible for their release. The presence of contamination or the failure to remediate property contaminations at any of our properties may adversely affect our ability to sell or lease the properties or to borrow using the properties as collateral. The costs or liabilities could exceed the value of the affected real estate. We have not been notified by any governmental authority, however, of any non-compliance, liability or other claim in connection with any of our properties, and we are not aware of any other environmental condition with respect to any of our properties that management believes would have a material adverse effect on our business, assets or results of operations taken as a whole.

Although we will attempt to determine the environmental condition of each property as part of our due diligence, we cannot be certain that this investigation will reveal all conditions that may impose an obligation on us to mitigate the environmental condition. If we were subject to environmental liability, which could be imposed based on our ownership of its property; such liability could adversely affect the value of your investment.

We may be subject to partially uninsured losses that may require substantial payments which could reduce the value of your investment.

We currently carry a $2,000,000 general liability policy for the Company. On Emerald Grove we have a comprehensive homeowner’s policy which also extends to the three (3) vacant parcels. Any ILA, vacant lot buyers or homebuyers will be encouraged to carry their own individual insurance policies. In addition, if losses occur, they may exceed insurance policy limits, and policies may contain exclusions with respect to various types of losses or other matters. Consequently, all or a portion of our properties may not be covered by disaster insurance and insurance may not cover all losses which could reduce the value of your investment.

We cannot control certain factors affecting the performance and value of a property, which may cause the value of that property and your investment to decline.

The economic performance and value of our real estate assets will be subject to the risks described below that are normally associated with changes in national, regional, and local political, economic and market conditions. These factors may adversely affect the ability of our customers to buy our real estate. Other local economic conditions that may affect the performance and value of the properties include the local economy of a given real estate project; competition for buyers, including competition based on attractiveness and location of the property; and the quality of amenities a project has to offer. In addition, other factors may affect the performance and value of a property adversely, including changes in laws and governmental regulations (including those governing usage, zoning and taxes), changes in interest rates (including the risk that increased interest rates may result in a decline in the liquidity of our properties), declines in housing or commercial property purchases and the availability of financing. Adverse changes in any of these factors, each of which is beyond our control, could reduce the cash flow that we receive from our properties, and adversely affect the value of your investment.

If we choose to carry debt, inability to make secured debt payments could result in loss of mortgaged property and reduce the value of your investment.

The Company carries secured and unsecured promissory notes. Debt financing carries many risks, including refinancing difficulties, loss of mortgaged properties, reduced ability to obtain new financing and increases in interest. We may choose to use debt financing in connection with future properties. If we cannot meet our secured debt obligations, the lender could take the collateral and we would lose both the secured property and the income, if any, it produces. Foreclosure on mortgaged properties or an inability to refinance existing indebtedness would likely have a negative impact on our financial condition and results of operations. We could have to pay substantial legal costs in connection with foreclosure of a property, and thus be subject to a deficiency judgment if the foreclosure sale amount is insufficient to satisfy the mortgage.

Rising interest rates could adversely affect our interest expense and cash flow and reduce the value of your investment.

We may borrow money at variable interest rates in the future to finance operations. Increases in interest rates would increase our interest expense on our variable rate debt, which would adversely affect cash flow and our ability to service our debt and make distributions to us.

Our lack of an established brand name and relative lack of resources could negatively impact our ability to effectively compete in the real estate market, which could reduce the value of your investment.

We do not have an established brand name or reputation in the real estate business. We also have a relative lack of resources to conduct our business operations. Thus, we may have difficulty effectively competing with companies that have greater name recognition and resources than we do. Presently, we have no patents, copyrights, trademarks and/or service marks that would protect our brand name or our proprietary information, nor do we have any current plans to file applications for such rights. Our inability to promote and/or protect our brand name may have an adverse effect on our ability to compete effectively in the real estate market.

We may make changes to our business, investment, leverage and financing strategies without stockholder consent, which could reduce the value of your investment.

Our discussions with various individuals concerning various properties or projects have included general discussions of acquiring properties directly either ourselves or in a joint venture with others or of developing properties either ourselves or in a joint venture with others. There is no limitation in the amount of funds we may invest in either property acquisition or property development. There is no limitation on or percentage allocation of funds or assets between property acquisition and property development, or between 100% ownership and joint venture ownership. Further, as the market evolves, we may change our business, investment and financing strategies without a vote of, or notice to, our stockholders, which could result in our making investments and engaging in business activities that are different from, and possibly riskier than, the investments and businesses described in this filing. In particular, a change in our investment strategy, including the manner in which we allocate our resources across our portfolio or the types of assets in which we seek to invest, may increase our exposure to interest rate risk, default risk and real estate market fluctuations. In addition, we may in the future use leverage at times and in amounts deemed prudent by our management in its discretion, and such decision would not be subject to stockholder approval. Changes to our strategies with regards to the foregoing could materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations.

We depend heavily on key personnel, and turnover of key senior management could harm our business.

Our future business and results of operations depend in significant part upon the continued contributions of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. If we lose their services or if they fail to perform in their current position, or if we are not able to attract and retain skilled employees as needed, our business could suffer. Significant turnover in our senior management could significantly deplete our institutional knowledge held by our existing senior management team. We depend on the skills and abilities of these key officers in managing the product acquisition, marketing and sales aspects of our business, any part of which could be harmed by turnover in the future.

Our future results and reputation may be affected by litigation or other liability claims.

We have procured a $2,000,000 general liability insurance policy for our business. In addition, we procured a $1,000,000 Executive and Corporate Securities Liability policy (“D&O”).  To the extent that we suffer a loss of a type which would exceed our limit, we could incur significant expenses in defending any action against us and in paying any claims that result from a settlement or judgment against us. Adverse publicity could result in a loss of consumer confidence in our business or our securities.

We may be subject to regulatory inquiries, claims, suits prosecutions which may impact our profitability.

Any failure or perceived failure by us to comply with applicable laws and regulations may subject us to regulatory inquiries, claims, suits and prosecutions. We can give no assurance that we will prevail in such regulatory inquiries, claims, suits, and prosecutions on commercially reasonable terms or at all. Responding to, defending and/or settling regulatory inquiries, claims, suits, and prosecutions may be time-consuming and divert management and financial resources or have other adverse effects on our business. A negative outcome in any of these proceedings may result in changes to or discontinuance of some of our services, potential liabilities or additional costs that could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, and future prospects.

We are vulnerable to concentration risks because we intend to focus on the residential rather than commercial market.

We intend to focus on residential rather than commercial properties. Economic shifts affect residential and commercial property markets, and thus our business, in different ways. A developer with diversified projects in both sectors may be better able to survive a downturn in the residential market if the commercial market remains strong. Our focus on the residential sector can make us more vulnerable than a diversified developer.

Risks Related to Our Mexican Operations

General economic conditions in Mexico may have an adverse effect on our operations and reduce our revenues.

General economic conditions in Mexico have an impact on our business and financial results. The global economy in general and in Mexico remains uncertain. Weak economic conditions could result in lower demand for our properties, resulting in lower sales, earnings, and cash flows.

The value of our securities may be affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and the currency of Mexico.

The value of our common stock may be affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and the currency of Mexico, and between those currencies and other currencies in which our revenues and assets may be denominated. For example, to the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars into the currency of Mexico for our operational needs, should the currency of Mexico appreciate against the U.S. dollar at that time, our financial position, the business of the Company, and the price of our common stock may be harmed. Conversely, if we decide to convert the currency of Mexico into U.S. dollars for the purpose of declaring dividends on our common stock or for other business purposes and the U.S. dollar appreciates against the currency of Mexico, the U.S. dollar equivalent of our earnings from our subsidiaries in Mexico would be reduced.

We are subject to anti-corruption laws in the jurisdictions in which we operate, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”), as well as trade compliance and economic sanctions laws and regulations. Our failure to comply with these laws and regulations could subject us to civil and criminal penalties, harm our reputation and materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Doing business in Mexico requires us to comply with the laws and regulations of numerous jurisdictions. These laws and regulations place restrictions on our operations and business practices. In particular, we are subject to the FCPA, which generally prohibits companies and their intermediaries from providing anything of value to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business or securing any improper business advantage, along with various other anti-corruption laws. As a result of doing business in Mexico, we are exposed to a heightened risk of violating anti-corruption laws. Although we have implemented policies and procedures designed to ensure that we, our employees and other intermediaries comply with the FCPA and other anti-corruption laws to which we are subject, there is no assurance that such policies or procedures will work effectively all of the time or protect us against liability under the FCPA or other laws for actions taken by our employees and other intermediaries with respect to our business or any businesses that we may acquire. Any continued international expansion, and any development of new partnerships and joint venture relationships worldwide, increase the risk of FCPA violations in the future.

Violations of anti-corruption laws, export control laws and regulations, and economic sanctions laws and regulations are punishable by civil penalties, including fines, as well as criminal fines and imprisonment. If we fail to comply with the FCPA or other laws governing the conduct of international operations, we may be subject to criminal and civil penalties and other remedial measures, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. Any investigation of any potential violations of the FCPA or other anti-corruption laws, export control laws and regulations, and economic sanctions laws and regulations by the United States or foreign authorities could also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity, regardless of the outcome of the investigation.

Our operations may be affected by social instability in Mexico.

Because we have Mexican operations, we are subject to social instability risks which could materially adversely affect our business and our results of operations. Specifically, our business is exposed to the risk of crime that is currently taking place in certain areas in Tijuana. Recent increases in kidnapping and violent drug related criminal activity in Mexico, and in particular Mexican States bordering the United States, may adversely affect our ability to carry on business safely.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

We will be subject to penny stock regulations and restrictions, and you may have difficulty selling shares of our common stock.

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define so-called “penny stocks” to be an equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exemptions. We are a “penny stock”, and we are subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act, or the “Penny Stock Rule”. This rule imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that sell such securities to persons other than established customers. For transactions covered by Rule 15g-9, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to sale. As a result, this rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and may affect the ability of purchasers to sell any of our securities in the secondary market.

For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require delivery, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. Disclosure is also required to be made about sales commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stock.

We may qualify for an exemption from the Penny Stock Rule. In any event, even if our common stock were exempt from the Penny Stock Rule, we would remain subject to Section 15(b)(6) of the Exchange Act, which gives the SEC the authority to restrict any person from participating in a distribution of penny stock, if the SEC finds that such a restriction would be in the public interest.

Because we do not have an audit or compensation committee, shareholders will have to rely on the entire board of directors, none of which are independent, to perform these functions.

We do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors. These functions are performed by the board of directors as a whole. No members of the board of directors are independent directors. Thus, there is a potential conflict in that board members who are also part of management will participate in discussions concerning management compensation and audit issues that may affect management decisions.

Our directors own a significant percentage of our outstanding voting securities which could reduce the ability of minority shareholders to effect certain corporate actions.

Our Chief Executive Officer and Director Roberto Valdes, and our Chief Financial Officer and Director Jason Sunstein, together own 8,481,813 shares of common stock, or approximately 29% of our outstanding voting securities. As a result, currently, and after the filing, they will possess a significant influence and can elect a majority of our board of directors and authorize or prevent proposed significant corporate transactions. Their ownership and control may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a future change in control, impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination or discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer.

Because our directors hold a significant amount of our shares of common stock, it may not be possible to have adequate internal controls.

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Section 404”) requires our management to report on the operating effectiveness of the Company’s Internal Controls over financial reporting. We must establish an ongoing program to perform the system and process evaluation and testing necessary to comply with these requirements. However, because our Directors, Roberto Valdes and Jason Sunstein, control approximately 29% of our outstanding voting securities, will continue to own a significant percentage of our voting securities, it may not be possible to have adequate internal controls. We cannot predict what affect this will have on our stock price.

We may, in the future, issue additional shares of common stock, which would reduce investors’ percent of ownership and may dilute our share value.

Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 75,000,000 shares of common stock. As of the date of this report we had 33,714,041 shares of common stock outstanding. Accordingly, we may issue approximately 41,285,959 additional shares of common stock subject to limitation on reserve amounts for other securities outstanding. The future issuance of common stock may result in substantial dilution in the percentage of our common stock held by our then existing shareholders. We may value any common stock issued in the future on an arbitrary basis. The issuance of common stock for future services or acquisitions or other corporate actions may have the effect of diluting the value of the shares held by our investors and might have an adverse effect on any trading market for our common stock.

We are subject to compliance with securities law, which exposes us to potential liabilities, including potential rescission rights.

We may offer to sell our common stock to investors pursuant to certain exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as well as those of various state securities laws. The basis for relying on such exemptions is factual; that is, the applicability of such exemptions depends upon our conduct and that of those persons contacting prospective investors and making the offering. We may not seek any legal opinion to the effect that any such offering would be exempt from registration under any federal or state law. Instead, we may elect to relay upon the operative facts as the basis for such exemption, including information provided by investor themselves.

If any such offering did not qualify for such exemption, an investor would have the right to rescind its purchase of the securities if it so desired. It is possible that if an investor should seek rescission, such investor would succeed. A similar situation prevails under state law in those states where the securities may be offered without registration in reliance on the partial preemption from the registration or qualification provisions of such state statutes under the National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996. If investors were successful in seeking rescission, we would face severe financial demands that could adversely affect our business and operations. Additionally, if we did not in fact qualify for the exemptions upon which we relied, we may become subject to significant fines and penalties imposed by the SEC and state securities agencies.

Because we do not intend to pay any cash dividends on our common stock, our stockholders will not be able to receive a return on their shares unless they sell them.

We intend to retain any future earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Unless we pay dividends, our stockholders will not be able to receive a return on their shares unless they sell them. There is no assurance that stockholders will be able to sell shares when desired.

We expect to experience volatility in the price of our common stock, which could negatively affect stockholders’ investments.

The trading price of our common stock may be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control. The stock market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies with securities traded in those markets. Broad market and industry factors may seriously affect the market price of companies’ stock, including ours, regardless of actual operating performance. All of these factors could adversely affect your ability to sell your shares of common stock or, if you are able to sell your shares, to sell your shares at a price that you determine to be fair or favorable.

Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our common stock, which could depress the price of our common stock.

FINRA has adopted rules that require a broker-dealer to have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer before recommending an investment to a customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives, and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. Thus, the FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our shares of common stock, have an adverse effect on the market for our shares of common stock, and thereby depress our price per share of common stock

Anti-takeover effects of certain provisions of Wyoming state law may hinder a potential takeover of us.

Wyoming has a business combination law that prohibits certain business combinations between Wyoming corporations and “interested stockholders” for two years after an “interested stockholder” first becomes an “interested stockholder,” unless the corporation’s board of directors approves the combination in advance. For purposes of Wyoming law, an “interested stockholder” is any person who is (i) the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the outstanding voting shares of the corporation or (ii) an affiliate or associate of the corporation and at any time within the three previous years was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of the corporation. The definition of the term “business combination” is sufficiently broad to cover virtually any kind of transaction that would allow a potential acquirer to use the corporation’s assets to finance the acquisition or otherwise to benefit its own interests rather than the interests of the corporation and its other stockholders.

The effect of Wyoming’s business combination law is potentially to discourage parties interested in taking control of us from doing so if they cannot obtain the approval of our Board. Both of these provisions could limit the price investors would be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock.

Our stock is thinly traded, so you may be unable to sell your shares at or near the quoted bid prices if you need to sell a significant number of your shares.

The shares of our common stock are thinly traded on the OTCQB Marketplace, meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our common stock at or near bid prices at any given time may be relatively small or non-existent. As a consequence, there may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in our shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price. We cannot give you any assurance that a broader or more active public trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained, or that current trading levels will be sustained. Due to these conditions, we can give you no assurance that you will be able to sell your shares at or near bid prices or at all if you need money or otherwise desire to liquidate your shares.

Shares eligible for future sale may adversely affect the market.

From time to time, certain of our stockholders may be eligible to sell all or some of their shares of common stock by means of ordinary brokerage transactions in the open market pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, subject to certain limitations. In general, pursuant to amended Rule 144, non-affiliate stockholders may sell freely after six months subject only to the current public information requirement. Affiliates may sell after six months subject to Rule 144 volume, manner of sale (for equity securities), and current public information and notice requirements. Any substantial sales of our common stock pursuant to Rule 144 may have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.

We could issue additional common stock, which might dilute the book value of our common stock.

Our Board of Directors has authority, without action or vote of our shareholders, to issue all or a part of our authorized but unissued shares. Such stock issuances could be made at a price that reflects a discount or a premium from the then-current trading price of our common stock. In addition, in order to raise capital, we may need to issue securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for a significant amount of our common stock. These issuances would dilute the percentage ownership interest, which would have the effect of reducing your influence on matters on which our shareholders vote and might dilute the book value of our common stock.

Our common stock could be further diluted as a result of the issuance of convertible securities, warrants or options.

In the past, we have issued convertible securities (such as convertible debentures and notes), warrants and options in order to raise money or as compensation for services and incentive compensation for our employees and directors. We have shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon the exercise of certain of these securities and may increase the shares reserved for these purposes in the future. Our issuance of these convertible securities, options and warrants could affect the rights of our stockholders, could reduce the market price of our common stock or could result in adjustments to exercise prices of outstanding warrants (resulting in these securities becoming exercisable for, as the case may be, a greater number of shares of our common stock), or could obligate us to issue additional shares of common stock to certain of our stockholders.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

2020 Plan

2019 Plan

Brief Description of equity compensation plan.

On February 11, 2019, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 2019 equity incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”). In order for the 2019 plan to grant “qualified stock options” to employees, it requires approval by the Company’s shareholders within 12 months from the date of the 2019 Plan. The 2019 Plan was never approved by the shareholders. Therefore, any options granted under the 2019 Plan prior to shareholders’ approval will be “non-qualified”. Pursuant to the 2019 Plan, the Company has reserved a total of 3,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock under the Plan. The Company has issued 1,350,000 options under the 2019 Plan during the year ended December 31, 2020.

The Company has issued 2,150,000 options under the 2019 Plan with a weighted average strike price of $0.48 during the year ended December 31, 2021.The Company has a total of 2,150,000 options issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2021.

On August 26, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the 2020 Equity Plan. The Company has reserved a total of 3,000,000 shares of the Company’s authorized common stock for issuance under the 2020 equity plan. The 2020 Equity Plan enables the Company’s board of directors to provide equity-based incentives through grants of awards to the Company’s present and future employees, directors, consultants, and other third-party service providers. The Company has issued 1,700,000 options under the 2020 Plan during the year ended December 31, 2020.

The Company has issued 1,000,000 options under the 2020 Plan during the year ended December 31, 2021, of which 1,000,000 were exercised and converted to an equivalent number of Common Stock for total consideration of $50,000. The Company has a total of 1,700,000 options issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2021.

Penny Stock Considerations

Because of the possible low price of our securities and certain other factors, many brokerage firms may not be willing to effect transactions in these securities and some market makers have declined to make a market for our common stock. Purchasers and holders of our securities should be aware that any market that develops in our stock may be subject to the penny stock restrictions.

Transfer Agent

Globex Transfer, LLC, located at 780 Deltona Blvd., Ste. 202, Deltona FL 32725 is the registrar and transfer agent for our common stock.

Overview of Our Company

International Land Alliance, Inc. was incorporated pursuant to the laws of the State of Wyoming on September 26, 2013. We are based in San Diego, California. We are a residential land development company with target properties located primarily in the Baja California Northern region of Mexico and Southern California. Our principal activities are purchasing properties, obtaining zoning and other entitlements required to subdivide the properties into residential and commercial building lots, securing financing for the purchase of the lots, improving the properties’ infrastructure and amenities, and selling the lots to homebuyers, retirees, investors, and commercial developers. We offer the option of financing (i.e. taking a promissory note from the buyer for all or part of the purchase price) with a guaranteed acceptance on any purchase for every customer.

Overview

The real estate market in the Northern Baja California has continued to significantly improve and has fully recover from the negative impact of Covid-19. The housing prices has continued to rise in the Southwest U.S., and inventory has remained severely low, which

generated additional attraction from home buyers seeking second homes or vacation homes.

The Company’s current portfolio includes residential, resort and commercial properties comprising of the following projects:

Equity-method investment:

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021:

Results of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to the year ended December 31, 2020

Revenues

Our total revenue reported for the year ended December 31, 2021, was $522,696, compared with $8,290 for the year ended December 31, 2020.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recognized $496,797 related to the sale of 20 acres of vacant land and associated improvements located at the Emerald Grove property in Hemet, California, and $25,899 in rental income activities related to IntegraGreen as the transaction was previously accounted for pursuant to ASC 842.

Cost of Revenues

Our total cost of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2021, was $67,806 compared with $0 for the year ended December 31, 2020. The change is a result of the cost of associated with the cost of the 20 acres of land sold to IntegraGreen.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses increased to $4,657,818 for the year ended December 31, 2021, from to $2,146,047 for the year ended December 31, 2020. The detail by major category is reflected in the table below.

Sales and marketing costs increased by $1,659,274 for the year ended December 31, 2021, primarily due to the fair value of options issued pursuant to a consulting and real estate sales agreement, which were granted during the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company also granted common shares with a fair value of approximately $447,000 with regards to consulting and advisory services on M&A, marketing & promotions of the Company real estate projects.

General and administrative costs increased by $852,497 for the year ended December 31, 2021, primarily due to compensation expense resulting from new employment contracts for our President, investors relations, and stock-based compensation.

Other expense

Other expense increased by $330,093 to $859,134 for the year ended December 31, 2021, from $529,041 for the year ended December 31, 2020. Such increase is primarily due to interest expense which increased by $329,478 and by the loss from the Company’s share in the equity of its equity-method investee for $168,170, offset by the reversal of default penalties on promissory notes for $100,000 recorded in other income, interest income from the financing component of the lot sale to Integragreen for approximately $18,000.

Net Loss

We finished the year ended December 31, 2021, with a net loss of $5,062,062, as compared to a loss of $2,666,798 for the year ended December 31, 2020, which is primarily the result of increased compensation to our officers, stock-based compensation, investors relations, interest expense incurred and the loss from our equity-method investment during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

The factors that will most significantly affect future operating results will be:

Other than the foregoing we do not know of any trends, events or uncertainties that have had, or are reasonably expected to have, a material impact on our revenues or expenses.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Cash and cash equivalents were approximately $56,600 at December 31, 2021. As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, we recorded a loss of $5,062,062 and $2,666,798 for the years ended December 31, 2021, and 2020, respectively. Our working capital deficit at December 31, 2021 was approximately $2,118,600 and net cash flows used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2021, were approximately $1,036,000. These factors and our limited ability to raise additional capital to accomplish our objectives, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We expect our expenses will continue to increase during the foreseeable future as a result of increased operations and the development of our current business operations. We anticipate generating continued revenues over the next twelve months as we continue to market the sale of lots held for sale, now having assumed title of our Oasis Park Resort property and expect to assume title to our other properties; however, there can be no assurance that such revenue will be sufficient to cover our expenses. Consequently, we expect to be dependent on the proceeds from future debt or equity investments to sustain our operations and implement our business plan. If we are unable to raise sufficient capital, we will be required to delay or forego some portion of our business plan, which would have a material adverse effect on our anticipated results from operations and financial condition. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain necessary amounts of capital or that our estimates of our capital requirements will prove to be accurate.

We presently do not have any significant credit available, bank financing or other external sources of liquidity. Due to our operating losses, our operations have not been a significant source of liquidity. We will need to acquire other profitable properties or obtain additional capital in order to expand operations and become profitable. In order to obtain capital, we may need to sell additional shares of our common stock or borrow funds from private lenders. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional funding.

To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities may result in dilution to existing stockholders. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of debt securities, these securities may have rights, preferences, and privileges senior to holders of common stock and the terms of such debt could impose restrictions on our operations. Regardless of whether our cash assets prove to be inadequate to meet our operational needs, we may seek to continue to compensate providers of services by issuance of stock in lieu of cash, which may also result in dilution to existing shareholders. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect significant amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing.

No assurance can be given that sources of financing will be available to us and/or that demand for our equity/debt instruments will be sufficient to meet our capital needs, or that financing will be available on terms favorable to us. If funding is insufficient at any time in the future, we may not be able to take advantage of business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures or may be required to reduce the scope of our planned development, any of which could have a negative impact on our business and operating results. In addition, insufficient funding may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, which could require us to:

Operating Activities

Net cash flows used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2021, was $1,035,678, which resulted primarily due to the loss of $5,062,062 offset by stock-based compensation of $2,129,266, fair value of shares issued as settlement of debt of $103,470, the fair value of commitment shares issued with convertible notes for $136,800, fair value of shares issued for service for $387,108, depreciation expense of $49,673, amortization of debt discount for $296,541, loss from equity-method investment of $168,170, and change in assets and liabilities of approximately $676,674.

Net cash flows used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2020, was $709,754, which resulted primarily due to the loss of $2,666,798 offset by debt discount amortization expense of $202,148, depreciation and amortization of $45,874, and stock-based compensation of $956,447

Investing Activities

Net cash flows used in investing activities was $722,050 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The funds were used for the development of the commercial agriculture at Emerald Grove resort for $100,000, cash consideration of $100,000 for the acquisition of 25% of RCV accounted for as its equity-method investment and approximately $522,050 for construction at the Company’s projects.

Net cash flows used in investing activities was $103,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020. The funds were used for the acquisition and development of the Emerald Grove property and Plaza Bajamar property.

Financing Activities

Net cash flows provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2021, was $1,801,147 primarily from cash proceeds from issuance of promissory notes for aggregate amount of $1,186,685, net funding from refinancing of approximately $368,736, sale of common stocks of $1,804,750, exercise of warrants and options for $100,000, and offset by repayment on a promissory note of $1,659,024.

Net cash flows provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2020, was $653,399 primarily from cash proceeds from sale of common stocks and warrants of $125,000, and cash proceeds from sale of common stock, warrants and plots of land promised to investors, net of expenses of $228,395, cash proceeds from warrant and option exercise of $81,308 and cash proceeds from note payable of $406,317.

As a result of these activities, we experienced an increase in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $43,400 for the years ended December 31, 2021, and a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $159,355 for the year ended December 31, 2020. Our ability to continue as a going concern is still dependent on our success in obtaining additional financing from investors.

Critical Accounting Polices

In December 2001, the SEC requested that all registrants list their “critical accounting polices” in the Management Discussion and Analysis. The SEC indicated that a “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results, and requires management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Our accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2 of our audited consolidated financial statements included herein. We consider the following accounting policies critical to the understanding of the results of our operations:

Since our inception through December 31, 2021, we have not engaged in any off-balance sheet arrangements.

INTERNATIONAL LAND ALLIANCE, INC. INDEX TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

International Land Alliance, Inc.

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of International Land Alliance, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2021, and 2020, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively, the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021, and 2020, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has experienced recurring losses from operations, has limited financial resources to repay its obligations and will require substantial new capital to execute its business plans, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Emphasis of a Matter – Significant Related Party Transactions.

As described in Notes 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8, the Company engages in substantial real estate activities between the Company and other entities controlled by an officer of the Company. The Company has also borrowed funds from an entity controlled by other officers of the Company.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2019.
