PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS SUBJECT TO COMPLETION DATED _______________, 2021
Applife Digital Solutions, Inc.
30,000,000 Shares of Common Stock Being Offered by the Company in the Primary Offering
This prospectus relates to the sale of 30,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001, of Applife Digital Solutions, Inc. (referred to herein as the “Company” or “Applife Digital Solutions, Inc.”), by the Company on a best efforts basis (the “Primary Offering”). The Company anticipates that public offering price will be between $0.08 and $0.12 per share. The Primary Offering terminates 12 months after commencement on ___________________, 2021. The Company is offering the shares on a self-underwritten, “best efforts” basis directly through its CEO, Matthew Reid. The total proceeds from the Primary Offering will not be escrowed or segregated but will be available to the Company immediately. There is no minimum amount of common shares required to be purchased, and, therefore, the total proceeds received by the Company might not be enough to sustain continued operations, or a market may not develop. No commission or other compensation related to the sale of the shares will be paid. For more information, see the section titled “Plan of Distribution” and “Use of Proceeds” herein.
Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Link LLC alternative trading system (“OTC Link”), operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc., under the symbol “ALDS”. As of May 20, 2021, the last reported sale price for our common stock was $0.14 per share. Prior to this offering, there has been a limited market for our securities. While our common stock is quoted on the OTC Link, there has been negligible trading volume. There is no guarantee that an active trading market for our common stock will develop. We are not a “blank check company,” and we have no plans or intentions to engage in a business combination following this offering.
This offering is highly speculative, and these securities involve a high degree of risk and should be considered only by persons who can afford the loss of their entire investment. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 5.
NEITHER THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED OF THESE SECURITIES OR DETERMINED IF THIS PROSPECTUS IS TRUTHFUL OR COMPLETE. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.
The date of this prospectus is _______________, 2021.

Corporate Background
APPlife Digital Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed March 5, 2018, in Nevada and has offices in San Francisco, California and Shanghai, China. Our office in San Francisco, California allows us to take advantage of the marketing opportunities available in the United States as well as keeping close proximity to sources of capital whether it is debt or equity.

Our goal is to build and invest in projects that make life, business and living easier, more efficient and just smarter.

RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the risks described below before investing in our securities. Additional risks not presently known to us or that our management currently deems immaterial also may impair our business operations. If any of the risks described below were to occur, our business, financial condition, operating results, and cash flows could be materially adversely affected. In such an event, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. In assessing these risks, you should also refer to the other information contained in this Prospectus, including our consolidated financial statements and related notes. The risks discussed below include forward-looking statements, and our actual results may differ substantially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY
We have a limited operating history, and our ability to generate revenue sufficient to support our operations is uncertain.
We were formed on March 5, 2018 and have only recently begun operations. We have a limited operational history upon which you can evaluate our potential for future success. Additionally, we are subject to additional risks associated with early-stage businesses, many of which will be beyond our control. These risks include uncertainty about our maintain or increase our revenues, our ability to limit our operational expenses, other operational difficulties, lack of sufficient capital, competition from more advanced companies selling similar floor safety products, and unanticipated problems, delays, and expenses relating to the implementation of our business plan. We cannot ensure that we will operate profitably in the future, or that we will have adequate working capital to meet our obligations as they become due.
We cannot guarantee continued sales of our products or services.
The Company’s business is focused on providing digital technology to create eCommerce and Cloud based businesses. We cannot provide any assurance that our products and services will sell or continue to sell at rates they have historically. Our products and services may become less attractive compared to competing products and services, and our business would be harmed.
We may be unable to effectively implement our business model and expand.
Our business model and growth and marketing strategy is predicated on its ability to introduce our products and services to the market. We cannot assure that we will be able to execute our business plan, introducing our products and services into new markets, that customers will embrace our products compared to competing products and services already well established in those markets, that any of the target markets will adopt our products and services, or that prospective customers will agree to pay the prices for our products and services in those new markets we plan to charge. In the event prospective customers resist our products and services and paying the prices we will charge, the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected.
We may incur significant debt to finance our operations.
There is no assurance that the Company will not incur debt in the future, that it will have sufficient funds to repay its indebtedness, or that the Company will not default on its debt, jeopardizing its business viability. Furthermore, the Company may not be able to borrow or raise additional capital in the future to meet the Company’s needs or to otherwise provide the capital necessary to conduct its business.
Although our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, we must raise additional capital to fund our operations in order to continue as a going concern
RBSM, LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, has included an explanatory paragraph in their opinion that accompanies our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2019, indicating that we have received recurring losses from operations, will
7
require additional capital to funds its current operations and has substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to raise additional capital, we may not be able to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
The Company is dependent on the performance of certain personnel.
The Company’s success depends substantially on the performance of its CEO and key employee, Matt Reid. Given the Company’s relatively early stage of development, the Company is dependent on its ability to retain and motivate high quality personnel. Although the Company believes it will be able to engage qualified personnel for such purposes, an inability to do so could materially adversely affect the Company’s ability to market, sell, and enhance its products. While Mr. Reid is currently devoting his full-time working efforts to the Company, other employees of the Company may only be available to the Company on a part-time basis. The loss of one or more of its key employees or the Company’s inability to hire and retain other qualified employees, including but not limited to research and development staff, sales staff, field staff, and corporate office support staff, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.
The Company has not established consistent methods for determining the consideration paid to management.
The consideration being paid by the Company to its CEO, Mr. Reid, has not been determined based on arm’s length negotiation. While management believes that Mr. Reid’s current compensation arrangement is fair for the work being performed, there is no assurance that the consideration to management reflects the true market value of his services. Additionally, in the future, the Company may grant net profits interests to its executive officers in addition to stock options, which may further dilute shareholders’ ownership of the Company.
There is no guarantee that the Company will pay dividends to its shareholders.
The Company does not anticipate declaring and paying dividends to its shareholders in the near future. It is the Company’s current intention to apply net earnings, if any, in the foreseeable future to increasing its capital base and marketing. Prospective investors seeking or needing dividend income or liquidity should therefore not purchase the Shares. There can be no assurance that the Company will ever have sufficient earnings to declare and pay dividends to the holders of the Company’s Common Stock, and in any event, a decision to declare and pay dividends is at the sole discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors.
A small group of Company employees and their related parties hold a majority of the control of the Company.
As of May 20, 2021, the Company’s CEO, Mr. Reid, owns approximately 75.90% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock. By virtue of such stock ownership, Mr. Reid is able to control the election of the members of the Company��s Board of Directors and to generally exercise control over the affairs of the Company. Such concentration of ownership could also have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change in control of the Company that might otherwise be beneficial to stockholders. There can be no assurance that conflicts of interest will not arise with respect to such management or that such conflicts will be resolved in a manner favorable to the Company.
Management cannot guarantee that its relationship with the Company does not create conflicts of interest.
The relationship of management and its affiliates to the Company could create conflicts of interest. While management has a fiduciary duty to the Company, it also determines its compensation from the Company. Management’s compensation from the Company has not been determined pursuant to arm’s-length negotiation.
The Company may sustain losses that cannot be recovered through insurance or other preventative measures.
There is no assurance that the Company will not incur uninsured liabilities and losses as a result of the conduct of its business. The Company plans to maintain comprehensive liability and property insurance at customary levels. The Company will also evaluate the availability and cost of business interruption insurance. However, should uninsured losses occur, the Shareholders could lose their invested capital.
8
We may be subject to liabilities that are not readily identifiable at this time.
The Company may have liabilities to affiliated or unaffiliated lenders. These liabilities would represent fixed costs we would be required to be pay, regardless of the level of business or profitability experienced by the Company. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to pay all of its liabilities. Furthermore, the Company is always subject to the risk of litigation from customers, suppliers, employees, and others. Litigation can cause the Company to incur substantial expenses and, if cases are lost, judgments, and awards can add to the Company’s costs.
In the course of business, the Company may incur expenses beyond what was anticipated.
Unanticipated costs may force the Company to obtain additional capital or financing from other sources or may cause the Company to lose its entire investment in the Company if it is unable to obtain the additional funds necessary to implement its business plan. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient capital to implement its business plan successfully. If a greater investment is required in the business because of cost overruns, the probability of earning a profit or a return of shareholder investment in the Company is diminished.
The Company will rely on management to execute the business plan and manage the Company’s affairs.
Under applicable state corporate law and the By-Laws of the Company, the officers and directors of the Company have the power and authority to manage all aspects of the Company’s business. Shareholders must be willing to entrust all aspects of the Company’s business to its directors and executive officers.
There is no assurance the Company will always have adequate capital to conduct its business.
The Company will have limited capital available to it. If the Company’s entire original capital is fully expended and additional costs cannot be funded from borrowings or capital from other sources, then the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and business performance would be materially adversely affected.
The Company is required to indemnify its directors and officers.
The Company’s By-Laws provide that the Company will indemnify its officers and directors to the maximum extent permitted by Nevada law. If the Company were called upon to indemnify an officer or director, then the portion of its assets expended for such purpose would reduce the amount otherwise available for the Company’s business.
We may encounter difficulties managing any growth, and if we are unable to do so, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.
If we are able to successfully launch our apps and websites, as our operations grow, the simultaneous management of development, production and commercialization across our target markets will become increasingly complex and may result in less than optimal allocation of management and other administrative resources, increase our operating expenses and harm our operating results.
Our ability to effectively manage our operations, growth and various projects across our target markets will require us to make additional investments in our infrastructure to continue to improve our operational, financial and management controls and our reporting systems and procedures and to attract and retain sufficient numbers of talented employees, which we may be unable to do effectively. We may be unable to successfully manage our expenses in the future, which may negatively impact our gross margins or operating margins in any particular quarter.
Our success also depends in part on our management’s expertise managing a public company, and our management has no expertise in this area. If our management is not able to manage the company properly as a public company, our business would be harmed.
Matt Reid, our CEO and director, has no experience in management positions with public companies. If our management is not able to successfully manage the Company as a public company, including complying with various regulatory, disclosure and reporting obligations of public companies, our business would be harmed.
9
Due to the fact that our sole officer and director is located in China, your rights as an investor in the United States may be limited in the following ways.
Our officer and director, Matt Reid, resides in China and operates the Company from China. As a result, as an investor you may have difficulty effecting service of process within the United States against our non-U.S. resident officer and director.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
We may become involved in intellectual property disputes, which may disrupt our business and require us to pay significant damage awards.
Third parties may sue us for intellectual property infringement, which, if successful, could disrupt our business, cause us to pay significant damage awards or require us to pay licensing fees. We may also be required to pay penalties, judgments, royalties or significant settlement costs. If we fail or are unable to develop non-infringing technology our business could suffer.
Third parties may misappropriate our proprietary technologies, information, or trade secrets despite a contractual obligation not to do so.
Third parties (including joint venture, collaboration, development partners, contract manufacturers, and other contractors and shipping agents) may have custody or control of any proprietary processes and technologies developed by us. If proprietary technologies developed by us were stolen or misappropriated, they could be used by other parties who may be able to use the technologies for their own commercial gain. In the event that any proprietary technologies are developed and then misappropriated, it could be difficult for us to challenge the misappropriation or prevent reverse engineering, especially in countries with limited legal and intellectual property protection.
RISKS RELATING TO OUR COMMON STOCK
We may, in the future, issue additional common shares, which would reduce investors’ percent of ownership and may dilute our share value.
Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which 134,689,404 shares are issued and outstanding as of May 20, 2021. 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.
Our common shares are subject to the “Penny Stock” rules of the SEC, and the trading market in our securities will likely be limited, which makes transactions in our stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our stock.
The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:
| ● | That a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks; and |
| ● | The broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quality of the penny stock to be purchased. |
In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:
| ● | Obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and |
10
| ● | Make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks. |
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:
| ● | Sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and |
| ● | That the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. |
Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.
Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.
There is a very limited market for our securities. While our common stock is on the OTC Markets, there has been negligible trading volume. There is no guarantee that an active trading market will develop in our securities and if a trading market does not develop, purchasers of our securities may have difficulty selling their shares.
There is currently no established public trading market for our securities, and an active trading market in our securities may not develop, or, if developed, may not be sustained. Accordingly, investors may have a difficult time selling their shares.
Our common stock is quoted through the OTC Markets, which may have an unfavorable impact on our stock price and liquidity.
The Company’s common stock is quoted on the OTC Markets, which is a significantly more limited market than the New York Stock Exchange or NASDAQ. The trading volume may be limited by the fact that many major institutional investment funds, including mutual funds, follow a policy of not investing in OTC Markets stocks and certain major brokerage firms restrict their brokers from recommending OTC Markets stocks because they are considered speculative and volatile.
The trading volume of the Company’s common stock has been and may continue to be limited and sporadic. As a result, the quoted price for the Company’s common stock on the OTC Markets may not necessarily be a reliable indicator of its fair market value.
Additionally, the securities of small capitalization companies may trade less frequently and in more limited volume than those of more established companies. The market for small capitalization companies is generally volatile, with wide price fluctuations not necessarily related to the operating performance of such companies.
Trading on the OTC Markets may be volatile and sporadic, which could depress the market price of our common stock and make it difficult for our stockholders to resell their shares.
Our common stock is quoted on OTC Markets. Trading in stock quoted on OTC Markets is often thin and characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices due to many factors that may have little to do with our operations or business prospects. This volatility could depress the market price of our common stock for reasons unrelated to operating performance. Moreover, OTC Markets is not a stock exchange, and trading of securities on the OTC Markets is often more sporadic than the trading of securities listed on a quotation system like NASDAQ or a stock exchange like the American Stock Exchange. Accordingly, our shareholders may have difficulty reselling any of their shares.
11
State securities laws may limit secondary trading, which may restrict the states in which and conditions under which you can sell the shares offered by this prospectus.
Secondary trading in common stock sold in this offering will not be possible in any state until the common stock is qualified for sale under the applicable securities laws of the state or there is confirmation that an exemption, such as listing in certain recognized securities manuals, is available for secondary trading in the state. If we fail to register or qualify, or to obtain or verify an exemption for the secondary trading of, the common stock in any particular state, the common stock could not be offered or sold to, or purchased by, a resident of that state. In the event that a significant number of states refuse to permit secondary trading in our common stock, the liquidity for the common stock could be significantly impacted thus causing you to realize a loss on your investment.
We may issue shares of preferred stock in the future that may adversely impact your rights as holders of our common stock.
Because our CEO and director, Mr. Reid, owns a majority of our outstanding common stock, he could authorize our Board of Directors to determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred shares without further stockholder approval. As a result, our Board of Directors could then authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders preferred rights to our assets upon liquidation, the right to receive dividends before dividends are declared to holders of our common stock, and the right to the redemption of such preferred shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of the common stock. To the extent that we do issue shares of preferred stock, your rights as holders of common stock could be impaired thereby, including, without limitation, dilution of your ownership interests in us. In addition, shares of preferred stock could be issued with terms calculated to delay or prevent a change in control or make removal of management more difficult, which may not be in your interest as a holder of common stock.
We may seek to raise additional funds, finance acquisitions or develop strategic relationships by issuing capital stock.
We may finance our operations and develop strategic relationships by issuing equity or debt securities, which could significantly reduce the percentage ownership of our existing stockholders. Furthermore, any newly issued securities could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our existing stock. Moreover, any issuances by us of equity securities may be at or below the prevailing market price of our stock and in any event may have a dilutive impact on your ownership interest, which could cause the market price of our stock to decline.
There may be deficiencies with our internal controls that require improvements, and if we are unable to adequately evaluate internal controls, we may be subject to sanctions by the SEC.
We are exposed to potential risks from legislation requiring companies to evaluate internal controls under Section 404a of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. As a smaller reporting company and emerging growth company, we will not be required to provide a report on the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting until our second annual report, and we will be exempt from the auditor attestation requirements concerning any such report so long as we are an emerging growth company or a smaller reporting company. We have not yet evaluated whether our internal control procedures are effective and therefore there is a greater likelihood of undiscovered errors in our internal controls or reported financial statements as compared to issuers that have conducted such evaluations. If we are not able to meet the requirements of Section 404a in a timely manner or with adequate compliance, we might be subject to sanctions or investigation by regulatory authorities, such as the SEC.
We are susceptible to general economic conditions, natural catastrophic events and public health crises, and a potential downturn in advertising and marketing spending by advertisers could adversely affect our operating results in the near future.
Our business is subject to the impact of natural catastrophic events, such as earthquakes, or floods, public health crisis, such as disease outbreaks, epidemics, or pandemics, and all these could result in a decrease or sharp downturn of economies, including our markets and business locations in the current and future periods. The outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) resulted in increased travel restrictions, and shutdown of businesses, which may cause slower recovery of the economy. Economic uncertainties have arisen that could potentially impact our development
12
and roll-out of products, deliverables related to contract performance, payments from vendors, supply chain disruptions or delays, timing of obtaining capital as well as other potential business operation disruptions. While the disruption is currently expected to be temporary, there is considerable uncertainty around the duration. Other financial impact could occur, but such potential impact is unknown at this time. We may experience impact from quarantines, market downturns and changes in customer behavior related to pandemic fears and impact on our workforce if the virus continues to spread. In addition, one or more of our customers, partners, service providers or suppliers may experience financial distress, delayed or defaults on payment, file for bankruptcy protection, sharp diminishing of business, or suffer disruptions in their business due to the outbreak. The extent to which the coronavirus impacts our results will depend on future developments and reactions throughout the world, which are highly uncertain and will include emerging information concerning the severity of the coronavirus and the actions taken by governments and private businesses to attempt to contain the coronavirus. It is likely to result in a potential material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Wider-spread COVID-19 globally could prolong the deterioration in economic conditions and could cause decreases in or delays in advertising spending and reduce and/or negatively impact our short-term ability to grow our revenues. Any decreased collectability of accounts receivable, bankruptcy of small and medium businesses, or early termination of agreements due to deterioration in economic conditions could negatively impact our results of operations.
Risks Related to our Financial Condition and Capital Requirements
We have experienced recurring losses from operations and negative cash flows from operating activities and anticipate that we will continue to incur operating losses in the future.
We have experienced recurring losses from operations and negative cash flows from operating activities. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses related to our ongoing operations and generate operating losses for the foreseeable future. The size of our losses will depend, in part, on the rate of future expenditures and our ability to generate revenues. We incurred a net loss of approximately $3.948,255 for the year ended June 30, 2020, and our accumulated deficit increased to approximately $5,609,891 as of June 30, 2020.
We may encounter unforeseen expenses, difficulties, complications, delays, and other unknown factors that may adversely affect our financial condition. Our prior losses and expected future losses have had, and will continue to have, an adverse effect on our financial condition. If our products do not achieve sufficient market acceptance and our revenues do not increase significantly, we may never become profitable. Even if we achieve profitability in the future, we may not be able to sustain profitability in subsequent periods. Our failure to become and remain profitable would decrease the value of our company and could impair our ability to raise capital, expand our business, diversify our product offerings or continue our operations. A decline in the value of our company could cause you to lose all or part of your investment.
If we are not able to successfully execute on our future operating plans, our financial condition and results of operation may be materially adversely affected, and we may not be able to continue as a going concern.
It is critical that we meet our sales goals and increase sales going forward as our operating plan already reflects prior significant cost containment measures and may make it difficult to achieve top-line growth if further significant reductions become necessary. If we do not meet our sales goals, our available cash and working capital will decrease and our financial condition will be negatively impacted.
We may need additional financing in the future, which may not be available when needed or may be costly and dilutive.
We will require additional financing to support our working capital needs in the future. The amount of additional capital we may require, the timing of our capital needs and the availability of financing to fund those needs will depend on a number of factors, including our strategic initiatives and operating plans, the performance of our business and the market conditions for debt or equity financing. Additionally, the amount of capital required will depend on our ability to meet our sales goals and otherwise successfully execute our operating plan. We believe it is imperative that we meet these sales objectives in order to lessen our reliance on external financing in the future. We intend to continually monitor and adjust our operating plan as necessary to respond to developments in our business, our markets and the broader economy. Although we believe various debt and equity financing alternatives will be
13
available to us to support our working capital needs, financing arrangements on acceptable terms may not be available to us when needed. Additionally, these alternatives may require significant cash payments for interest and other costs or could be highly dilutive to our existing shareholders. Any such financing alternatives may not provide us with sufficient funds to meet our long-term capital requirements. If necessary, we may explore strategic transactions that we consider to be in the best interest of the company and our shareholders, which may include, without limitation, public or private offerings of debt or equity securities, a rights offering, and other strategic alternatives; however, these options may not ultimately be available or feasible when needed.
If we are unable to continue as a going concern, our securities will have little or no value.
Although our audited financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2020, were prepared under the assumption that we would continue our operations as a going concern, the report of our independent registered public accounting firm that accompanies our financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2020, contains a going concern qualification in which such firm expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, based on the financial statements at that time. Specifically, as noted above, we have experienced recurring losses from operations and negative cash flows from operating activities, and we expect to continue to incur significant expenses and operating losses for the foreseeable future. These prior losses and expected future losses have had, and will continue to have, an adverse effect on our financial condition. In addition, as noted above, continued operations and our ability to continue as a going concern may be dependent on our ability to obtain additional financing in the near future and thereafter, and there are no assurances that such financing will be available to us at all or will be available in sufficient amounts or on reasonable terms. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. If we are unable to generate additional funds in the future through sales of our products, financings or from other sources or transactions, we will exhaust our resources and will be unable to continue operations. If we cannot continue as a going concern, our shareholders would likely lose most or all of their investment in us.
Risk Factors Related to Our Common Stock and This Offering
We have used an arbitrary offering price.
The offering price per share of common stock was arbitrarily determined by the Company and is unrelated to specific investment criteria, such as the assets or past results of the Company’s operations. In determining the offering price, the Company considered such factors as the prospects, if any, of similar companies, the previous experience of management, the Company’s anticipated results of operations, and the likelihood of acceptance of this offering. Please review any financial or other information contained in this offering with qualified persons to determine its suitability as an investment before purchasing any shares in this offering.
There has been no independent valuation of the stock, which means that the stock may be worth less than the purchase price.
The per share purchase price has been determined by us without independent valuation of the shares. We established the offering price based on management’s estimate of the value of the shares. This valuation is highly speculative and arbitrary. There is no relation to the market value, book value, or any other established criteria. We did not obtain an independent appraisal opinion on the valuation of the shares. The shares may have a value significantly less than the offering price and the shares may never obtain a value equal to or greater than the offering price.
Even if a market develops for our shares, our shares may be thinly traded with wide share price fluctuations, low share prices and minimal liquidity.
If an established market for our shares develops, the share price may be volatile with wide fluctuations in response to several factors, including: potential investors’ anticipated feeling regarding our results of operations; increased competition; and our ability or inability to generate future revenues. In addition, our share price may be affected by factors that are unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance. Our share price might be affected by general economic, political, and market conditions, such as recessions, interest rates, commodity prices, or international currency fluctuations. Additionally, stocks traded on the OTC Link are usually thinly traded, highly volatile and not followed by analysts. These factors, which are not under our control, may have a material effect on our share price.
14
Because our Primary Offering does not have a minimum offering amount, we may not raise enough funds to continue operations.
Because our Primary Offering lacks a minimum offering amount, no minimum amount of funds are assured, and we may only receive proceeds sufficient to fund operations for a short amount of time. We may then have to cease operations, and investors could then lose their entire investment.
Purchasers of our stock will experience dilution.
At June 30, 2020, we had a negative net tangible book value of approximately ($0.01) per share of our common stock. If you purchase our common stock from us in our Primary Offering, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per share of our common stock (assuming a $0.10 per share public offering price, which is the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus) and the pro forma net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after the offering of $0.01 per share (assuming all 30,000,000 shares in the Primary Offering are sold at $0.10, which is the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus). See the “Dilution” section below for a more detailed explanation.
THE OFFERING
This prospectus relates to the sale of 30,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001, of the Company at a price of $[__] per share on a best efforts basis. This offering (the “Primary Offering”) terminates 12 months after commencement of this offering. The Company is offering the shares on a self-underwritten “best efforts” basis directly through its CEO and director, Matthew Reid. There is no minimum amount of common shares required to be purchased, and the total proceeds received by the Company might not be enough to begin operations or a market may not develop. No commission or other compensation related to the sale of the shares will be paid. For more information, see the section titled “Plan of Distribution” and “Use of Proceeds” herein.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We estimate the net proceeds to us from this offering will be approximately $3,000,000, based on an assumed initial offering price of $0.10 per share, which is the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover of this prospectus, after deducting estimated offering expenses payable by us. We will not receive any proceeds from sales of our common stock by the Selling Security Holders.
The following table summarizes how we anticipate using the gross proceeds of the Primary Offering, depending upon whether we sell 100%, 75%, 50%, or 25% of the shares being offered in the Primary Offering. We anticipate that the net proceeds of the Offering will be used primarily to execute our business plan. The precise amounts that the Company will devote to its programs will vary depending on numerous factors. In the event that we sell less than the maximum shares offered in the Primary Offering, our first priority is to pay fees associated with registration of our stock andother public company costs.:
| | If 25% of Shares Sold | | | If 50% of Shares Sold | | | If 75% of Shares Sold | | | If 100% of Shares Sold | |

Total | | $ | 725,000 | | | | 1,475,000 | | | | 2,225,000 | | | | 2,975,000 | |
The Company anticipates that the estimated $3,000,000 gross proceeds from the offering would enable it to purchase new inventory, improve product development, expand operations, and fund its other capital needs for the next fiscal year. In the event that the offering is not completed, the Company will likely be required to seek additional financing as the Company needs a minimum of approximately $$350,000in gross proceeds to implement its business plan and support its operations over the next twelve months. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available when needed, and, if available, that it will be on terms acceptable to the Company.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
The shares for sale by the Company in the Primary Offering of 30,000,000 shares will be sold at estimated price between $0.08 and $0.12. In determining the public offering price of the Primary Offering shares, we considered several factors including:
| · | Our start-up status; |
| · | Prevailing market conditions, including the history and prospects for the industry in which we compete; |
| · | Our future prospects; and |
| · | Our capital structure. |
Therefore, the public offering price of the shares does not necessarily bear any relationship to established valuation criteria and may not be indicative of prices that may prevail at any time or from time to time in the public market for the common stock. You cannot be sure that a public market for any of our securities will develop and continue or that the securities will ever trade at a price at or higher than the offering price in this offering. Such offering price does not have any relationship to any established criteria of value, such as book value or earnings per share. Because we have no significant operating history, the price of our common stock is not based on past earnings, nor is the price of our common stock indicative of the current market value of the assets owned by us. No valuation or appraisal has been prepared for our business and potential business expansion. Our common stock is presently not traded on any market or securities exchange and we have not applied for listing or quotation on any public market. You cannot be sure that a public market for any of our securities will develop and continue, or that the securities will ever trade at a price at or higher than the offering price in this offering.
DIVIDEND POLICY
We have not declared or paid dividends on our common stock since our formation, and we do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. Declaration or payment of dividends, if any, in the future, will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on our then current financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors. There are no contractual restrictions on our
16
ability to declare or pay dividends. Consequently, you will only realize an economic gain on your investment in our common stock if the price appreciates. You should not purchase our common stock expecting to receive cash dividends. Since we do not anticipate paying dividends, and if we are not successful in establishing an orderly public trading market for our shares, then you may not have any manner to liquidate or receive any payment on your investment. Therefore, our failure to pay dividends may cause you to not see any return on your investment even if we are successful in our business operations. In addition, because we may not pay dividends in the foreseeable future, we may have trouble raising additional funds which could affect our ability to expand our business operations.
MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK

DILUTION
We had a negative net tangible book value as of June 30, 2020, of approximately ($0.01) per share of our common stock. If you invest in our common stock, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per share of our common stock, and the pro forma net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after the offering.
Most of the Company’s current shareholders acquired shares at a cost substantially less than $0.10 per share, whereas outside investors purchasing shares in the offering will pay a price of $[ ] per share. Further, the net tangible book value per share after the offering but prior to any new offerings is expected to be approximately $0.01per share, assuming all 30,000,000 shares being offered by the Company are sold at $0.10 per share, which the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, and after deducting estimated offering expenses payable by us. Therefore, outside investors participating in this offering will incur immediate substantial dilution of their investment insofar as it refers to the resulting per share net tangible book value of the Company’s common stock after completion of this Offering. The following table illustrates dilution to investors on an approximate dollar per share basis, depending upon whether we sell 100%, 75%, 50%, or 25% of the shares being offered in the Primary Offering, and assuming the shares are sold at $0.10 per share, which the midpoint of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus:
Percentage of Offering Shares Sold | | | 100% | | | | 75% | | | | 50% | | | | 25% | |

Overview
APPlife Digital Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed March 5, 2018, in Nevada and has offices in San Francisco, California and Shanghai, China. Our office in San Francisco, California allows us to take advantage of the marketing opportunities available in the United States as well as keeping close proximity to sources of capital whether it is debt or equity. Our offices in Shanghai, China allows us to take advantage of a high concentration of skilled tech coders and developers at lower capital costs than in more developed countries such as the United States or Europe. The Company’s mission is using digital technology to create and invest in eCommerce and Cloud based businesses that make life, business and living easier, more efficient, and just smarter.
Plan of Operation
Our marketing and business management/executive team will operate from both Shanghai China and our offices in San Francisco. We will continue to explore new concepts and opportunities to invest in projects that meet our criteria We have incurred expenses and operating losses, as part of our activities in developing e-commerce platforms, B2BCHX, OFFICEHOP, ROOSTER ESSENTIALS and Global Hemp Service The capital we raise will go into marketing, acquisitions and revenue generation. This will take our vision forward and to the next level.
18
The APPlife Digital Solutions business model is two-fold. First, is to market our current in-house developed projects OfficeHop, B2BCHX, ROOSTER ESSENTIALS ecommerce and cloud based business over the next year, work to add partnerships like the Global Hemp Service LLC and to add additional in-house developed projects including DRINX starting in the 1st quarter of 2022 We plan to engage multiple resources, add staff and create partnerships as needed and as capital becomes available to market and grow revenue for B2BCHX, OFFICE HOP, and ROOSTER ESSENTIALS .
The second, but equally important part of our business model is to target acquisitions and projects that can be assisted by our marketing and capitalization capabilities where we can play an active role in the project’s success and make the acquisitions to add to our revenue stream. We seek acquisition targets that have a model that fits our vision and area of interest, is currently generating revenue with room for growth and a strong management team that will stay on board and continue to operate the entity post acquisition.
Our current projects:
B2BCHX is our first fully developed app that is available in Google Play and a functioning ecommerce and mobile website. B2BCHX allows business owners around the world to order three levels of background checks in English on Chinese companies to prevent fraudulent business transactions, to gather information in order to gain confidence when doing business with a Chinese entity or to pursue legal remedy against fraudulent Chinese Company. The reports are researched and written by a licensed law firm in Shanghai China in a partnership agreement with B2BCHX. These reports are not auto generated and are carefully researched to give our users the most accurate information. The retail price for each report is $79, $399 and $1299. The partnership with the law firm is on a 20% revenue share, which leaves B2BCHX an 80% per report profit margin to cover development expenses, maintenance and profit.
ROOSTER ESSENTIALS ecommerce website, mobile website and app (iOS and Google Play), has been developed and launched BETA operations in the third quarter of fiscal year 2020 and is launching its full commercial operations in the 2nd quarter of 2021. ROOSTER ESSENTIALS is an online men’s grooming supply store, and it allows men to fully customize which products they receive and set up an auto-delivery schedule for each product for automatic recurring delivery. ROOSTER currently carries over 200 products from over 80 brands. We anticipate the sources of revenue will come from purchases averaging $500 per user, per year and advertising and sponsorships. Men’s grooming products are the fastest growing segment of Health and Beauty. Currently a $26 Billion dollar market is forecasted to reach $100 billion by 2024.
OFFICE HOP is entering Beta testing in May of 2021 and will be ready for commercial operations as early as June 2021. OFFICE HOP fits perfectly into the needs of the post Covid working world, where short term offices and meeting rooms will be in high demand. The OFFICE HOP model is like Airbnb for short term shared or private office space and meeting rooms. Those offices that have an extra office, shared desk, an empty meeting room or conference room may list the space and act as a host for a user. Those users in need of a short-term shared desk, meeting room or private office may locate one on our platform and rent it out for use as needed by the hour, half day, full day, week or month. We will also offer access to creative spaces such as photo studios and pop-up art galleries and will offer restaurants with private rooms a way to rent out the space with a menu included for group or lunch meetings. The revenue is expected to come from the 10-15% service fee charged to Users for finding and making a transaction with one of our listed properties and the 10-15% service fee to the Hosts upon a successful transaction by a user, for a total of 20%- 30% for each transaction. The platform is global. We will begin operations in North America and Europe and then eventually operate in South America and Asia.
Global Hemp Services LLC is a low risk and low cost participation in the fast growing Hemp and CBD market space. We have licensed out our fully functional ecommerce platform in exchange for a 15% equity position and 2.5% revenue share, with exclusive rights to purchase an additional 36% of the equity (for a total of 51%) upon reaching revenue benchmarks. Global Hemp Service distributes Hemp and CBD products globally, including Hemp based building materials, textiles, plastics, paper, personal care items and various CBD products. They will distribute wholesale to shops and stores and retail directly to consumers.
Our DRINX project is in early stage of development and we believe the beta version will be ready by the 1st quarter of fiscal year 2022. DRINX app allows anyone to purchase a virtual drink ticket anywhere and at any time for friends
19
and colleagues. We anticipate the sources of revenue will come from advertising and sponsorships from alcohol companies promoting products on the app, user fee of $0.99 to send each drink and discounts provided by the bars and restaurants for purchases made by the app.
Results of Operations for Three Months Ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020
Revenue
For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we generated $1,410 and $1,312, respectively. The Company has been in the process of marketing and developing its apps, hiring developers and coders, incurring professional fees for registering its common stock and identifying other apps and partnerships to generate revenues as the Company expands its operations.
Operating Loss
For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 we had operating losses of $760,234 and $511,723, respectively. This loss was due primarily to the stock compensation and professional fees paid to consultants.
Other Income (Expense)
For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we incurred $79,241 and $45,215 of other expenses, respectively, which was due to interest expense on notes payable. We recorded gain of $75,733 during the three months ended March 31,2021 and a loss of $32,690 for three months ended March 31, 2020 due to change in fair value of derivative liability.
Net loss
We reported a net loss of $763,742 and $589,628 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Results of Operations for Nine Months Ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020
Revenue
For the nine months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we generated revenue of $3,716 and $1,458, respectively, through our subsidiary Rooster. The Company has been in the process of marketing and developing its apps, hiring developers and coders, incurring professional fees for registering its common stock and identifying other apps and partnerships to generate revenues as the Company expands its operations.
Operating Loss
For the nine months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 we had operating losses of $2,416,063 and $2,618,740, respectively. This decrease in operating loss of $186,521 was primarily due to the impairment expense recognized in the prior year offset, by an increase in spending on advertising and consulting fees in the nine months ended March 31, 2021.
Other Income (Expense)
For the nine months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we incurred $416,017 and $163,698 of other expense, respectively, which was due to interest expense of $453,048 and $113,375. The Company had other gain and loss in the amounts of $78,245 and $50,323 for nine months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, due to change in fair value of derivative liability and a loss on extension of notes payable of $41,214 and $0 during the nine months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.
20
Professional Fees
Professional fees were $701,417 and $743,461 for the nine months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company expects professional fee costs to increase as the Company is a public reporting company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which requires that it maintain relationships with both PCAOB registered audit firms and securities counsel to assist with the SEC reporting requirements. In addition, the Company may also attempt to purchase other entities or assets and operations of other entities if the advantageous situation presents itself. This could require the Company to incur substantial professional fees.
Net loss
We reported a net loss of $2,832,080 and $2,782,438 for the nine months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Working Capital
| | March 31, 2021 |
Current assets | $ | 614,596 |
Current liabilities | | 441,141 |
Working capital | $ | 173,455 |
We anticipate generating losses and, therefore, may be unable to continue operations in the future. If we require additional capital, we will have to issue debt or equity or enter into a strategic arrangement with a third party.
Going Concern
As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has minimal revenue generating operations and has an accumulated deficit $8,441,971 and $5,609,891 as of March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively. In addition, the Company has experienced negative cash flows from operations since inception. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. There can be no assurance that any additional financings, would be available to the company unsatisfactory terms and conditions if at all. The current pandemic known as COVID-19 as described in Note 6, creates additional uncertainty. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
The Company anticipates additional equity financings to fund operations in the future. Should management fail to adequately address the issue, the Company may have to reduce its business activities or curtail its operations.

Our cash was $433,945 on March 31, 2021. We recorded a net loss of $2,832,080 for the nine months ended March 31, 2021. We expect our expenses will continue to increase during the foreseeable future as a result of increased operations and the development of our apps and business operations. We anticipate generating revenues with our B2BCHX app, but only minimal revenues for our other apps over the next twelve months. Consequently, we are 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 consolidated
21
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 source of liquidity. We will need to 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 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 marketing efforts and development of our apps, 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:
·Curtail the development of our apps,
·Seek strategic partnerships that may force us to relinquish significant rights to our apps, or
·Explore potential mergers or sales of significant assets of our Company.
Operating Activities
During the nine months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company used $634,762 and $491,741 in cash to fund our operating activities, respectively. The cash used in operating activities in 2020 are the result of net loss during the period offset primarily by amortization of debt discount, stock compensation expense an increase in working capital accounts. During the nine months ended March 31, 2020, the cash used was primarily the result of stock compensation and changes in working capital accounts.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $983,000 and $546,444 during the nine months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The increase in financing activities is primarily from the proceeds of notes payable of $1,048,000 and $120,000 from the sale of common stock in 2021 less payments $185,000 on notes payable.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and the Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and operating results require the Company’s management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in its financial statements and accompanying notes. Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” of the Notes to Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q, describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates, and such differences may be material.
22
Management believes the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates are those related to revenue recognition. Management considers these policies critical because they are both important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and operating results, and they require management to make judgments and estimates about inherently uncertain matters. The Company’s management has reviewed these critical accounting policies and related disclosures.
Revenue Recognition
The Company will recognize revenue from the sale of products and services in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” by applying the following steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.
Emerging Growth Company
We are an “emerging growth company” under the federal securities laws and will be subject to reduced public company reporting requirements. In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We are choosing to take advantage of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to those of companies that comply with public company effective dates.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”) and also issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance: ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, and ASU 2019-05 (collectively, “Topic 326”). Topic 326 requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held. The Company will be required to adopt this ASU for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of Topic 326 is not expected to have a material on the Company’s financial statements and financial statement disclosures
Seasonality
We do not expect our sales to be impacted by seasonal demands for our products and services.

Board Composition
Our By-Laws provide that the Board of Directors which shall constitute the whole board shall not be less than one (1) nor more than seven (7) or such other maximum number of directors as permitted by the Nevada General Corporation Law. The maximum or minimum number of directors cannot be changed, nor can a fixed number be substituted for the maximum and minimum numbers, except by a duly adopted amendment to the articles of incorporation or by an amendment to this bylaw.
No Committees of the Board of Directors; No Financial Expert
We do not presently have a separately constituted audit committee, compensation committee, nominating committee, executive committee or any other committees of our Board of Directors. Nor do we have an audit committee or financial expert. Management has decided not to establish an audit committee at present because our limited resources and limited operating activities do not warrant the formation of an audit committee or the expense of doing so. As such, our entire Board of Directors acts as our audit committee. We do not have a financial expert serving on the Board of Directors or employed as an officer based on management’s belief that the cost of obtaining the services of a person who meets the criteria for a financial expert under Section 407 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and Item 407(d) of Regulation S-K is beyond our limited financial resources and the financial skills of such an expert are simply not required or necessary for us to maintain effective internal controls and procedures for financial reporting in light of the limited scope and simplicity of accounting issues raised in our financial statements at this stage of our development.
Auditors
Our principal registered independent auditor is RBSM, LLP.
Code of Ethics
The Company does not have a written code of ethics that applies to the Company’s officers.
Potential Conflicts of Interest
Since we do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors, the functions that would have been performed by such committees are performed by our directors. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest in that our directors and officers have the authority to determine issues concerning management compensation and audit issues that may affect management decisions. We are not aware of any other conflicts of interest with any of our executives or directors.
Director Independence
Our board of directors has undertaken a review of the independence of each director and considered whether any director has a material relationship with us that could compromise his ability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out his responsibilities. As a result of this review, our board of directors determined that Don Savant, Tracy Gray and Sid Ganis are independent directors.
Involvement in Legal Proceedings
None of our officers or directors has filed a personal bankruptcy petition, had a bankruptcy petition filed against any business of which they were a general partner or officer at the time of bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time, or has been convicted of or been the subject of any criminal proceedings or the subject of any order, judgment or decree involving the violation of any state or federal securities laws within the past ten (10) years.
25

Outstanding Equity Awards
Our directors and officers have stock that has not vested and are expected to receive stock options in the future.
Compensation of Directors
Our directors do not receive cash compensation for their services as directors. They have been issued shares and options.
Employment Contracts, Termination of Employment, Change-in-Control Arrangements
There are no formal employment contracts, or other contracts with our officers or directors. There are no compensation plans or arrangements, including payments to be made by us, with respect to our officers, directors or consultants that would result from the resignation, retirement or any other termination of such directors, officers or consultants from us. There are no arrangements for directors, officers, employees or consultants that would result from a change-in-control.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners
The following table lists, as of May 20, 2021, the number of shares of common stock of our Company that are beneficially owned by (i) each person or entity known to our Company to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding common stock; (ii) each officer and director of our Company; and (iii) all officers and directors as a group. Information relating to beneficial ownership of common stock by our principal shareholders and management is based upon information furnished by each person using beneficial ownership concepts under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a beneficial owner of a security if that person has or shares voting power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security, or investment power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security. The person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any security of which that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Under the Securities and Exchange Commission rules, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities, and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which he or she may not have any pecuniary beneficial interest. Except as noted below, each person has sole voting and investment power.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Director Independence
Our securities are not listed on a national securities exchange or on any inter-dealer quotation system, which has a requirement that a majority of directors be independent. Our board of directors has undertaken a review of the independence of each director by the standards for director independence set forth in the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules. Under these rules, an independent director is one who is not an executive officer or an employee of the company and who does not have a relationship that, in the opinion of the board of directors, would interfere with exercising independent judgment in carrying out a director’s responsibilities. Our board of directors has determined that three of our directors qualify as independent directors.
DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
The following description of our capital stock is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the provisions of our Articles of Incorporation, which has been filed as an exhibit to our registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.
Common Stock
We are authorized to issue 500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001, of which 134,689,404 shares are issued and outstanding as of May 20, 2021. Each holder of shares of our common stock is entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to the vote of stockholders, including the election of Directors. The holders of shares of common stock have no preemptive, conversion, subscription or cumulative voting rights. There is no provision in our Articles of Incorporation or By-laws that would delay, defer, or prevent a change in control of our Company.
Warrants and Options
Currently, there are no warrants or options outstanding; nor are there any other equity or debt securities convertible into common stock other than disclosed in the “Convertible Note” paragraph above.
Security Holders
As of May 20, 2021, there were 134,689,404 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding, which were held by 53 stockholders of record.
Non-cumulative Voting
Holders of shares of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares, voting for the election of directors, can elect all of the directors to be elected, if they so choose, and, in such event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any of our directors.
28
Transfer Agent
We have engaged Action Stock Transfer Corp., as transfer agent to serve as agent for shares of our common stock. Our transfer agent’s contact information is as follows:
Action Stock Transfer Corp.
2469 E. Fort Union Blvd., Suite 214, Salt Lake City, UT 84121
(801) 274-1088
Admission to Quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board or Another Over-the-Counter Quotation Board
We are listed on the OTCQB tier of OTC Markets Group’s over-the-counter market. As we are traded on the over- the-counter markets, security holders may find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our securities. The over-the-counter quotation boards differ significantly from national and regional stock exchanges in that they
| (1) | are not situated in a single location but operate through communications of bids, offers and confirmations between broker-dealers, and |
| | |
| (2) | securities admitted to quotation are offered by one or more Broker-dealers rather than the “specialists” common to stock exchanges. |
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
Prior to this offering, there was a limited public market for our common stock. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of shares of our common stock or the availability of shares of our common stock for sale will have on the market price of our common stock. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market could adversely affect the market prices of our common stock and could impair our future ability to raise capital through the sale of our equity securities.
We have outstanding an aggregate of 134,689,404 shares of our common stock prior to this offering, and we will have outstanding 164,689,404 shares of our common stock after conclusion of this offering. All of the shares registered in the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, unless those shares are purchased by our affiliates, as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act.
Restricted securities may be sold in the public market only if they have been registered or if they qualify for an exemption from registration under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, or another exemption from registration under the Securities Act.
Rule 144
Rule 144 allows for the public resale of restricted and control securities if a number of conditions are met. Meeting the conditions includes holding the shares for a certain period of time, having adequate current information, looking into a trading volume formula, and filing a notice of the proposed sale with the SEC.
In general, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock for at least six months would be entitled to sell their securities provided that (i) such person is not deemed to have been one of our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the 90 days preceding, a sale, (ii) we are subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements and have filed all required reports for a least 90 days before the sale, and (iii) we are not and have never been a shell company (a company having no or nominal operations and either (1) no or nominal assets, (2) assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents, or (3) assets consisting of any amount of cash and cash equivalents and nominal other assets). If we ever become a shell company, Rule 144 would be unavailable until one year following the date we cease to be a shell company and file Form 10 information with the SEC ceasing to be a shell company, provided that we are then subject to the reporting requirements of section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and have filed all reports and other materials required to be filed by section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the preceding
29
12 months (or for such shorter period that we were required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports.
Persons who have beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock for at least six months but who are our affiliates at the time of, or any time during the 90 days preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of either of the following:
| - | 1% of the number of shares of our common stock then outstanding; or |
| | |
| - | The average weekly trading volume of our common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale. |
At the expiration of the one-year holding period, a person who was not one of our affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale would be entitled to sell an unlimited number of shares of our common stock without restriction. A person who was one of our affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale would remain subject to the volume restrictions described above.
Sales under the Rule 144 by our affiliates or persons selling shares on behalf of our affiliates are also subject to certain manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about us.
LEGAL MATTERS
We know of no existing or pending legal proceedings against us other than as disclosed below, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or any of their respective affiliates, or any beneficial stockholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.

Going Concern
The Company has generated losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. The Company has historically financed its operations from equity financing. The Company anticipates additional equity financings to fund operations in the future. Should management fail to adequately address the issue, the Company may have to reduce its business activities or curtail its operations. There can be no assurance that any additional financings, would be available to the Company on satisfactory terms and conditions if at all. The current pandemic known as COVID-19 as described in Note 5, creates additional uncertainty.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and classification of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Basis of Presentation
The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for the interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all subsidiaries in which the Company holds a controlling financial interest as of the financial statement date. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. However, in the opinion of the management of the Company, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and operating results have been included in these statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10–K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, as filed with the SEC on September 25, 2020. Operating results for the nine months ended March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any subsequent quarters or for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2021.
F-6
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For the purpose of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers cash equivalents to include cash and investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
Income Taxes
The Company has adopted guidance issued by the FASB that clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold of more likely than not and a measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. In making this assessment, a company must determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, based solely on the technical merits of the position and must assume that the tax position will be examined by taxing authorities. The Company’s policy is to include interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. The Company had no accrual for interest or penalties as of March 31, 2021. The Company files income tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and the state of California.
Use of Estimates
Generally accepted accounting principles require that the consolidated financial statements include estimates by management in the valuation of certain assets and liabilities. Significant matters requiring the use of estimates and assumptions include, but are not necessarily limited to, fair value of the Company’s stock, stock-based compensation, and valuation allowance relating to the Company’s deferred tax assets. Management uses its historical records and knowledge of its business in making these estimates. Management believes that its estimates and assumptions are reasonable, based on information that is available at the time they are made. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
The Company will recognize revenue from the sale of products and services in accordance with ASC 606, ”Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” by applying the following steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with the fair value recognition provision of FASB ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in which employee services are acquired. Transactions include incurring liabilities, or issuing or offering to issue shares, options, and other equity instruments such as employee stock ownership plans and stock appreciation rights. Share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements based on the estimated grant date fair values. That expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period).
The Company accounts for share-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 505, Equity–based Payments to Non-Employees (“ASC 505”). Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees is based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The fair value of the share-based payment transaction is determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance completion date.
F-7
Net Loss per Share
Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, increased by potentially dilutive common shares ("dilutive securities") that were outstanding during the period. Dilutive securities include stock options and warrants granted, convertible debt, and convertible preferred stock. There were no potentially dilutive securities for the period ended March 31, 2021 and year ended June 30, 2020.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company follows FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) to measure and disclosure the fair value of its financial instruments. ASC 820 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements and establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The three levels of fair value hierarchy defined by ASC 820 are described below:
·Level 1: Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
·Level 2: Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.
·Level 3: Pricing inputs that are generally unobservable inputs and not corroborated by market data.
Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
The carrying amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair value because of the immediate or short-term nature of these consolidated financial instruments.
Derivative Liability
FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging requires all derivatives to be recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value. As of March 31, 2021, we used the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) model to estimate the fair value of the conversion feature of the convertible note. Key assumptions of the BSM model include the market price of our stock, the conversion price of the debt, applicable volatility rates, risk-free interest rates and the instrument’s remaining term. These assumptions require significant management judgment. In addition, changes in any of these variables during a period can result in material changes in the fair value (and resultant gains or losses) of this derivative instrument.
Leases
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) established ASC Topic 842, “Leases”, by issuing Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, which requires lessees to now recognize operating leases on the balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. ASC Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition
F-8
to Topic 842; ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases; and ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted Improvements. The new standard establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement. Lessor accounting under the new standard is substantially unchanged. Additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures are also required. Adoption of this standard did not result in any material changes to the financial statements.
Inventories
Inventory, consisting of raw materials, work in process and products available for sale, are primarily accounted for using the first-in, first-out method (“FIFO”), and are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. This valuation requires management to make judgements based on currently available information, about the likely method of disposition, such as through sales to individual customers and returns to product vendors. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had inventories of approximately $43,373. The Company has no allowance for inventory reserves.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”) and also issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance: ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, and ASU 2019-05 (collectively, “Topic 326”). Topic 326 requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held. The Company will be required to adopt this ASU for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of Topic 326 is not expected to have a material on the Company’s financial statements and financial statement disclosures.

Other Risks
On March 12, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 to be a pandemic, and the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in significant financial market volatility and uncertainty. A continuation or worsening of the levels of market disruption and volatility seen in the recent past could have an adverse effect on our ability to access capital, on our business, results of operations and financial condition, and on the market price of our common shares. While we did not incur significant disruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic during the quarter ended March 31, 2021, this situation could have an impact on our future business and results of operations in 2021 that may be material but cannot be reasonably estimated at this time due to numerous uncertainties.

Shares issued for prepayment penalty
On September 29, 2020, the Company paid $81,675 towards one of its outstanding notes, which includes principal of $55,000, prepayment penalty of $21,175 and accrued interest of $5,500. As an inducement to pay off the note early, the Company issued 153,410 shares of common stock valued at $0.20 per share, or $30,682 to the Investor (see Note 2).
On October 29, 2020, the Company paid $81,553 toward the final tranche of the notes issued on October 1, 2019, which consists of principal of $55,000, interest of $5,410 and a prepayment penalty of $21,143. The Company also issued 123,602 shares to the creditor valued at $14,832 in conjunction with the prior extension of this note.
Equity component of issuance of convertible notes
On July 14, 2020 and October 21, 2020, the Company sold convertible notes bearing 12% interest in the principal amounts of $340,000 and $348,000, respectively. Subject to certain ownership limitations, the notes will be convertible at the option of the holder at any time into shares of the Company’s common stock at an effective conversion price of $0.144. The embedded conversion features of these notes were valued at $85,000 and $135,333, respectively, and is amortized over the life of the notes.
On January 12, 2021, the Company sold convertible notes bearing 12% interest on the principal amount of $360,000, respectively (see Note 2). The embedded conversion features of this note was valued at $40,000 and is amortized over the life of the note.

Note 7 – Derivative Liability
The Company issued debts that consist of the issuance of convertible notes with variable conversion provisions. The conversion terms of the convertible notes are variable based on certain factors, such as the future price of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the promissory note is indeterminate. Pursuant to ASC 815-15 Embedded Derivatives, the fair values of the variable conversion option and shares to be issued were recorded as derivative liabilities on the issuance date and revalued at each reporting period.
A summary of quantitative information with respect to valuation methodology and significant unobservable inputs used for the Company’s common stock purchase warrants that are categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy for the three months ended March 31, 2021 is as follows:
| | Quarter Ended March 31, 2021 | |
Stock price | | $ | 0.17 | |
Exercise price | | $ | 0.22 – 0.37 | |
Contractual term (in years) | | | 0.25 – 0.64 | |
Volatility (annual) | | | 206 | % |
Risk-free rate | | | 0.03% - 0.07 | % |
The foregoing assumptions are reviewed quarterly and are subject to change based primarily on management’s assessment of the probability of the events described occurring. Accordingly, changes to these assessments could materially affect the valuations.
Financial Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below and disclosed on the balance sheet under Derivative liability – warrants and derivative liabilities:

The fair value accounting standards define fair value as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is determined based upon assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Fair value measurements are rated on a three-tier hierarchy as follows:
F-13
| ● | Level 1 inputs: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets; |
| ● | Level 2 inputs: Inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and |
| ● | Level 3 inputs: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. |
There were no transfers between Level 1, 2 or 3 during the period ended March 31, 2021.
During the nine months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded a gain of $78,245 and a loss of $50,323, respectively, from the change in fair value of derivative liability.
The following table presents changes in Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value for the period ended March 31, 2021:
| Derivative Liability |
Balance – June 30, 2020 | $ | 248,173 |
Changes due to redemptions | | (125,238) |
Change in fair value of derivative liability | (78,245) |
Balance – March 31, 2021 | $ | 44,690 |
The balance of the derivative liability at March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2020 was $44,690 and $248,173, respectively.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Stockholders and the Board of Directors of
Applife Digital Solutions, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Applife Digital Solutions, Inc. (collectively, the “Company”) as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ (deficit) equity and cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at June 30, 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended June 30, 2020, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The Company's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and will require additional capital to fund its current operating plan. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may 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 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 audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 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 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 financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

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

APPlife Digital Solutions, Inc.
Notes to Audited Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization
APPlife Digital Solutions Inc. (the “Company”) is a business incubator and portfolio manager that uses digital technology to create and invest in e-commerce and cloud-based solutions. The Company was formed March 5, 2018 in Nevada and has offices in San Francisco, California and Shanghai, China. The Company’s mission is using digital technology to create eCommerce and Cloud based businesses that make life, business and living easier, more efficient and just smarter.
Rooster Essentials APP SPV, LLC (the “Rooster”), incorporated on April 9, 2019, is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Rooster is a fully customizable men’s subscription service that delivers daily use grooming needs and essential items.
B2BCHX SPV LLC (the “B2BCHX”), incorporated on June 5, 2019, is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. B2BCHX does an independent background check on mainland Chinese companies for small businesses globally.
Going Concern
The Company has generated losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. The Company has historically financed its operations from equity financing. The Company anticipates additional equity financings to fund operations in the future. Should management fail to adequately address the issue, the Company may have to reduce its business activities or curtail its operations. There can be no assurance that any additional financings, would be available to the company unsatisfactory terms and conditions if at all. The current pandemic known as COVID-19 as described in Note 6, creates additional uncertainty.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and classification of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or U.S. GAAP. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For the purpose of the consolidated statement of cash flows, the Company considers cash equivalents to include cash and investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
Income Taxes
The Company has adopted guidance issued by the FASB that clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold of more likely than not and a measurement process for consolidated financial statements recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. In making this assessment, a company must determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, based solely on the technical merits of the position and must assume that the tax position will be examined by taxing authorities. The Company’s policy is to include interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. There was no interest or penalties for the years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. The Company files income tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and the state of California and New York.
F-20
Use of Estimates
Generally accepted accounting principles require that the financial statements include estimates by management in the valuation of certain assets and liabilities. Significant matters requiring the use of estimates and assumptions include, but are not necessarily limited to, fair value of the Company’s stock, stock-based compensation, and valuation allowance relating to the Company’s deferred tax assets. Management uses its historical records and knowledge of its business in making these estimates. Management believes that its estimates and assumptions are reasonable, based on information that is available at the time they are made. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
The Company will recognize revenue from the sale of products and services in accordance with ASC 606, ”Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” by applying the following steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with the fair value recognition provision of FASB ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in which employee services are acquired. Transactions include incurring liabilities, or issuing or offering to issue shares, options, and other equity instruments such as employee stock ownership plans and stock appreciation rights. Share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as compensation expense in the consolidated financial statements based on the estimated grant date fair values. That expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period).
The Company accounts for share-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 505, Equity–based Payments to Non-Employees (“ASC 505”). Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees is based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The fair value of the share-based payment transaction is determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance completion date.
Net Loss per Share
Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, increased by potentially dilutive common shares ("dilutive securities") that were outstanding during the period. Dilutive securities include stock options and warrants granted, convertible debt, and convertible preferred stock. There were no potentially dilutive securities for the years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company follows FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) to measure and disclosure the fair value of its financial instruments. ASC 820 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements and establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The three levels of fair value hierarchy defined by ASC 820 are described below:
Level 1Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
Level 2Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.
F-21
Level 3Pricing inputs that are generally unobservable inputs and not corroborated by market data.
Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
The carrying amounts reported in the Company’s financial statements for cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair value because of the immediate or short-term nature of these financial instruments.
Equity Method Investments
We originally accounted for our ownership in Smartrade Exchange Services, Inc (“Smartrade”) using the equity method of accounting during the quarter ended March 31, 2019. In prior periods, the investment was accounted for under the cost method. The equity method states that if the investment provides us the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the investee, we account for the investment under the equity method. Significant influence is generally deemed to exist if the Company’s ownership interest in the voting stock of the investee ranges between 20% and 50%, although other factors, such as representation on the investee’s board of directors, are considered in determining whether the equity method of accounting is appropriate. Under the equity method of accounting, the investment is recorded at its initial carrying value in the balance sheet and is periodically adjusted for capital contributions, dividends received and the company’s share of the investee’s earnings or losses together with other-than-temporary impairments which are recorded as a component of other income (expense), net in the statements of operations. The Company’s effective ownership in Smartrade was 30% and 25% at June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. In addition, the Company fully impaired its investment in Smartrade during the 2020 fiscal year, see note 2.
Derivative Liability
FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, requires all derivatives to be recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value. As of June 30, 2019, we used the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) model to estimate the fair value of the conversion feature of the convertible note. Key assumptions of the BSM model include the market price of our stock, the conversion price of the debt, applicable volatility rates, risk-free interest rates and the instrument’s remaining term. These assumptions require significant management judgment. In addition, changes in any of these variables during a period can result in material changes in the fair value (and resultant gains or losses) of this derivative instrument.
Leases
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) established ASC Topic 842, “Leases”, by issuing Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, which requires lessees to now recognize operating leases on the balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. ASC Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842; ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases; and ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted Improvements. The new standard establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement. Lessor accounting under the new standard is substantially unchanged. Additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures are also required. Adoption of this standard did not result in any material changes to the financial statements.
Inventories
Inventories, consisting of raw materials, work in process and products available for sale, are primarily accounted for using the first-in, first-out method (“FIFO”), and are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. This valuation
F-22
requires management to make judgements based on currently available information, about the likely method of disposition, such as through sales to individual customers and returns to product vendors. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had inventories of $43,675. The Company has no allowance for inventory reserves.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”) and also issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance: ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, and ASU 2019-05 (collectively, “Topic 326”). Topic 326 requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held. The Company will be required to adopt this ASU for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of Topic 326 is not expected to have a material on the Company’s financial statements and financial statement disclosures
Note 2 — Investment in Smartrade Exchange Services, Inc.

Other Risks
On March 12, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 to be a pandemic, and the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in significant financial market volatility and uncertainty. A continuation or worsening of the levels of market disruption and volatility seen in the recent past could have an adverse effect on our ability to access capital, on our business, results of operations and financial condition, and on the market price of our common shares. While we did not incur significant disruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic during the year ended June 30, 2020, this situation could have an impact on our future business and results of operations in 2021 that may be material, but cannot be reasonably estimated at this time due to numerous uncertainties.

Note 8 – Derivative Liability
The Company issued debts that consist of the issuance of convertible notes with variable conversion provisions. The conversion terms of the convertible notes are variable based on certain factors, such as the future price of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares of common stock to be issued is based on the future price of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the promissory note is indeterminate. Pursuant to ASC 815-15 Embedded Derivatives, the fair values of the variable conversion options and shares to be issued were recorded as derivative liabilities on the issuance date and revalued at each reporting period.

A summary of quantitative information with respect to valuation methodology and significant unobservable inputs used for the Company’s common stock purchase warrants that are categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy for the year ended June 30, 2020 is as follows:
| | Year Ended June 30, 2020 | |
Stock price | | $ | 0.18 | |
Exercise price | | $ | 0.133 – 0.405 | |
Contractual term (in years) | | | 0.77 – 1.39 | |
Volatility (annual) | | | 174% - 291% | |
Risk-free rate | | | 0.16% – 1.80% | |
The foregoing assumptions are reviewed quarterly and are subject to change based primarily on management’s assessment of the probability of the events described occurring. Accordingly, changes to these assessments could materially affect the valuations.
Financial Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below and disclosed on the balance sheet under Derivative liability – warrants and derivative liabilities:

The fair value accounting standards define fair value as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is determined based upon assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Fair value measurements are rated on a three-tier hierarchy as follows:
· | ·Level 1 inputs: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets; |
· | · | ·Level 2 inputs: Inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and |
· | · | ·Level 3 inputs: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. |
There were no transfers between Level 1, 2 or 3 during the years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.
In the year ending June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a decrease in fair value of derivative liability of $46,077.

Note 10 – Income Taxes
The Company files corporate income tax returns in the United States (federal) and in California. Since the Company incurred net operating losses in every tax year since inception, the 2018, 2019 and 2020 income tax returns are subject to examination and adjustments by the IRS for at least three years following the year in which the tax attributes are utilized.
As of June 30, 2020, the Company had federal and state net operating loss carry forwards of $1,261,000. Net operating losses generated since inception amounting to $1,261,000, no longer have an expiration for the years the Company has been operating. State net operating loss carryforwards will begin to expire in 2038 through 2040. The Company also had net operating losses of $8,900 in China which will expire in 2030. The Company has not completed its evaluation of net operating loss (“NOL”) utilization limitations under Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “Code”), Section 382/383, change of ownership rules. If the Company has had a change in ownership, the NOL’s would be limited as to the amount that could be utilized each year, or possibly eliminate, based on the Code, as amended.
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) was enacted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act, among other things, permits NOL carryovers and carrybacks to offset 100% of taxable income for taxable years beginning before 2021. In addition, the CARES Act allows NOLs incurred in 2018, 2019, and 2020 to be carried back to each of the five preceding taxable years to generate a refund of previously paid income taxes. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the CARES Act, but due to sustained losses, the NOL carryback provision of the CARES Act would not yield a benefit to us.
Other than minimum taxes, the company does not incur a provision for income taxes because the Company has historically incurred operating losses and maintains a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty surrounding the realizability of the benefit, based on a more likely than not criteria and in consideration of available positive and negative evidence.
F-27
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities consist of the following:
