(Unaudited)

Note 1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Everything Blockchain, Inc. (“EBI”) and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”, “we”, “our”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company is primarily engaged in the business of consulting and developing data management, blockchain and cybersecurity related solutions.

Subsidiaries of the Company

The subsidiaries of the Company are Render Payment Corp., DataStone, Inc., Vengar Technologies, Inc., Everything Blockchain Technology Corporation, and EBI International, Inc.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of EBI and its wholly owned subsidiaries.

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted from this report, as is permitted by such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements as of and for the year ended January 31, 2024, and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on May 15, 2024 (the “2024 Annual Report”). The results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for any future period.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments that are necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. The results for the three and six months ended July 31, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending January 31, 2025, or for any future period.

As of July 31, 2024, there have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies from those that were disclosed in the 2024 Annual Report.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The most significant estimates and judgments relate to revenue recognition; allowance for doubtful accounts; valuation of long-lived assets and finite-lived intangible assets; recoverability of goodwill; acquisition method of accounting; contingencies; and income taxes.

On a regular basis, management reviews its estimates utilizing currently available information, changes in facts and circumstances, historical experience, and reasonable assumptions. After such reviews, and if deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted accordingly. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition Policies

Our revenue is derived from the subscription, non-software related hosted services, term-based and perpetual licensing of software products, associated software maintenance and support plans, consulting services, training, and technical support. Most of our customer arrangements involve multiple solutions and various license rights, bundled with post-contract customer support and other meaningful rights that together provide a complete end-to-end solution to the customer. 

Services revenue. We generate services revenue via consulting services and software development. The Company is engaged in developing, engineering, and designing blockchain projects.

We recognize revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:

Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of temporary cash investments and accounts receivable.

The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts when events and circumstances regarding the collectability of its receivables or the selling of its commodities warrant based upon factors such as the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends, other information, and past bad debt history. The outstanding balances are stated net of an allowance for doubtful accounts.

Our cash balances are maintained in accounts held by major banks and financial institutions located in the United States. The Company may occasionally maintain amounts on deposit with a financial institution that are in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000. The risk is managed by maintaining all deposits in high-quality financial institutions. The Company had $0 in excess of federally insured limits on July 31, 2024 and January 31, 2024.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company includes in cash and cash equivalents all short-term, highly liquid investments that mature within three months of the date of purchase. Cash equivalents consist principally of investments in interest-bearing demand deposit accounts and liquidity funds with financial institutions and are stated at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company had no cash equivalents as of July 31, 2024 and January 31, 2024.

Basic and Diluted Net Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The Company follows ASC Topic 260 – Earnings Per Share, and FASB 2015-06, Earnings Per Share to account for earnings per share. Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS calculations are determined by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect, calculated using (i) the “treasury stock” method for warrants and (ii) the “if converted” method for the preferred stock if their inclusion would not have been anti-dilutive.

Fair Value Measurements 

The Company measures assets and liabilities at fair value based on an expected exit price as defined by the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements, which represents the amount that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, as the case may be, in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value may be based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis whereby inputs, used in valuation techniques, are assigned a hierarchical level.

The following are the hierarchical levels of inputs to measure fair value:

The carrying values for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and deferred revenue approximate their fair value due to their short maturities.

Note 3. Going Concern

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. Because the business is new and has a limited history, no certainty of continuation can be stated. The accompanying financial statements for the three and six months ended July 31, 2024 and 2023 have been prepared to assume that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

The Company has had historically negative cash flow and net losses. Though the year ended January 31, 2022 resulted in positive cash flow and net income, there are no assurances the Company will generate a profit or obtain positive cash flow in the future. The Company has sustained its solvency through the support of its shareholder and chairman, Michael Hawkins, or companies controlled by Michael Hawkins, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

Management is taking steps to raise additional funds to address its operating and financial cash requirements to continue operations in the next twelve months. Management has devoted a significant amount of time to the raising of capital from additional debt and equity financing. However, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon raising additional funds through debt and equity financing and generating revenue. There are no assurances the Company will receive the funding or generate the revenue necessary to fund operations. The financial statements contain no adjustments for the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 4. Discontinued Operations

On October 31, 2023, the Board of Directors approved, and the Company completed, the sale of Mercury to Chris Carter, founder and CEO of Mercury.

In the consolidated statements of cash flows, the cash flows of discontinued operations were separately classified or aggregated under operating and investing activities.

The remaining notes to the consolidated financial statements were updated to reflect the impact of these discontinued operations. All discussions and amounts in the consolidated financial statements and related notes for all periods presented relate to continuing operations, unless otherwise noted.

The following table summarizes the results of discontinued operations (in thousands).

Note 5. Intangible Assets

The Company’s IP/Technology is amortized over five years.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to uncollectible receivables, inventory valuation, deferred compensation, and contingencies.

We base our estimates on historical performance and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates allow us to make judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. If actual results or events differ materially from those contemplated by us in making these estimates, our reported financial condition, and results of operations for future periods could be materially affected.

Results of Operations

Our operating results for the three and six months ended July 31, 2024 and 2023 are summarized as follows (in thousands):

Revenue

Revenue for the three and six months ended July 31, 2024 and 2023 was $0.1 million from consulting services.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses primarily consist of selling, general and administrative expenses, stock-based compensation expense, and amortization and depreciation expense. Selling, general and administrative expenses primarily consist of personnel costs, consultant fees, professional fees, computer and internet expenses, marketing expenses, utilities expenses, meals and entertainment, office supplies, and reporting fees.

Operating expenses for the three months ended July 31, 2024 were $1.1 million compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended July 31, 2023. The primary reason for the decrease was due to decreases in stock-based compensation of $0.3 million and professional fees of $0.2 million, partially offset by an increase in depreciation and amortization of $0.2 million.

Operating expenses for the six months ended July 31, 2024 were $2.5 million compared to $3.0 million for the six months ended July 31, 2023. The primary reason for the decrease was due to decreases in stock-based compensation of $0.6 million and professional fees of $0.3 million, partially offset by an increase in depreciation and amortization of $0.3 million.

Loss from Operations

Loss from operations for the three months ended July 31, 2024 was $1.0 million compared to $1.4 million for the three months ended July 31, 2023. Loss from operations for the six months ended July 31, 2024 was $2.4 million compared to $2.9 million for the six months ended July 31, 2023. The primary reasons for the decrease in loss from operations were due to the decrease in operating expenses as discussed above. 

Other Expense

Other income (expense) consists primarily of fair market value adjustments to cryptocurrency and interest income and expense.

Other expense, net for the three months ended July 31, 2024 was $0 million compared to $1.3 million for the three months ended July 31, 2023. Other expense, net for the three months ended July 31, 2023 consists primarily of fair market value expense adjustments related to cryptocurrency of $1.3 million.

Other expense, net for the six months ended July 31, 2024 was $0.1 million compared to $1.3 million for the six months ended July 31, 2023. Other expense, net for the six months ended July 31, 2023 consists primarily of fair market value expense adjustments related to cryptocurrency of $1.3 million.

Adjusted EBITDA

The Company reports all financial information required in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes, however, that evaluating its ongoing operating results will be enhanced if it also discloses certain non-GAAP information.

Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined by the Company as net income (loss) plus net interest income, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation and amortization, and stock-based compensation.

Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to net income, operating income, net cash provided by operating activities, or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA presented by other companies may not be comparable to our presentation since each company may define these terms differently.

The table below reconciles Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, to net loss.

Going Concern

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. Because the business is relatively new and has a short history and relatively few sales, no certainty of continuation can be stated. The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended July 31, 2024 and 2023 have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are a smaller reporting company and therefore, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item of Form 10-Q.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of January 31, 2024. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that there are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures.

Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their desired control objectives. Additionally, in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures, management is required to apply its reasonable judgment. Based on the evaluation described above, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report because we did not document our Sarbanes-Oxley Act Section 404 internal controls and procedures.

As funds become available to us, we expect to implement additional measures to improve disclosure controls and procedures such as implementing and documenting our internal controls procedures.

Changes in internal controls over financial reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended July 31, 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and its principal financial officer, do not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part 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. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with associated policies or procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
