NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The interim financial statements for the nine months ending April 30, 2024 are unaudited. These interim condensed financial statements are prepared in accordance with requirements for unaudited interim periods and consequently do not include all disclosures required to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. In management's opinion, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's consolidated financial statements are reflected in the interim periods included and are of a normal recurring nature. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Form 10-K, for the year ended July 31, 2023, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("the SEC") atwww.sec.gov.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks, money market funds and certificates of term deposits with maturities of less than three months from inception, which are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which, in the opinion of management, are subject to an insignificant risk of loss in value.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basisover the useful lives of the assets. For furniture and fixtures, the useful life is five years, Leasehold Improvements are depreciated over their respective lease terms. Expenditures for additions and improvements are capitalized. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Impairment of long-lived assets
The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets to future undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. The Company has not recognized any related impairment losses.
Intangible Assets
The Company has intangible assets with indefinite useful lives obtained as a result of assets acquisitions. The Company does not amortize its intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, rather such assets are tested for impairment are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the asset may be impaired in accordance with ASC 350 Intangibles-Goodwill and Other. In testing for impairment, the Company has the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that an impairment exists. If it is determined that it is not more likely than not that an impairment exists, a quantitative impairment test is not necessary. If the Company concludes otherwise, it is required to perform a quantitative impairment test. To the extent an impairment loss is recognized, the loss establishes the new cost basis of the asset. Subsequent reversal of impairment losses is not permitted.
As of April 30, 2024, the Company had a total of $7,439,858 of net intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, which consisted of customer contracts in aggregate of $4,480,572, Federal Communications Commission and state licenses in total of $2,954,553 and IPs in total of $4,734.
As of July 31, 2023, the Company had a total of $7,406,827 of net intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, which consist of customer contracts in aggregate of $4,477,113, Federal Communications Commission and state licenses in total of $2,924,980 and IPs in total of $4,734.
Revenue recognition
The Company accounts for revenues under Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (Topic 606), which we adopted on August 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective approach. This standard update, along with related subsequently issued updates, clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common revenue standard for GAAP. The Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company applies the five-step model to arrangements that meet the definition of a contract under Topic 606, including when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer.
At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of Topic 606, the Company evaluates the goods or services promised within each contract related performance obligation and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company recognizes as revenue, the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. Amounts invoiced or collected in advance of product delivery or providing services are recorded as unearned revenue or customer deposits. The company accrues for sales returns, bad debts, and other allowances based on its historical experience. The Company's revenues are derived from its subsidiaries, 1stPoint Communications, LLC, Endstream Communications, LLC and Shelcomm, Inc. 1stPoint's and Shelcomm's revenues are derived from retail web and voice hosting services as well as carrier hosting services. These are contracted agreements which are billed monthly, and revenues are recognized in the period in which the services are rendered. In some cases customers sign longer term agreements (up to two years) and prepay for those services. Revenues are recognized in the period the services are delivered. Endstream's revenue is derived from post-paid and pre-paid wholesale voice services and billed on a usage basis. Revenues are recognized in the period in which the services are delivered.
Accounts Receivable
On August 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASC 326, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses". In accordance with ASC 326, an allowance is maintained for estimated forward-looking losses resulting from the possible inability of customers to make the required payments (current expected losses). The amount of the allowance is determined principally on the basis of past collection experience and known financial factors regarding specific customers.
Management periodically assesses the Company's accounts receivable and, if necessary, establishes an allowance for estimated uncollectible amounts. Any required allowance is based on specific analysis of past due accounts and also considers historical trends of write-offs.
Management performed its assessment of Company's accounts receivable as of April 30, 2024 and July 31, 2023 and determined that no allowance for estimated uncollectible amounts was necessary.
Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes". The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and for operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized. As of July 31, 2023, the Company did not have any amounts recorded pertaining to uncertain tax positions.
Fair value measurements
The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures", which defines fair value as used in numerous accounting pronouncements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements. The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Foreign currency translation and other comprehensive loss
We transact business in various foreign currencies including the Euro and the Leone. In general, The functional currency of Hammer Wireless - SL, Ltd., the Company's Sierra Leone subsidiary, is the Sierra Leonean Leone. Consequently, revenues and expenses of operations outside the United States are translated into USD Dollars using the weighted-average exchange rates on the period end date and assets and liabilities of operations outside the United States are translated into US Dollars using the change rate on the balance sheet dates. The effects of foreign currency translation adjustments amounted to approximately $54,000 and are reported in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss) and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders' Equity (Deficit). On July 31, 2023, the Board of Directors approved the discontinuation of the Hammer Wireless - SL, Ltd, subsidiary.
Prior period reclassifications
We have reclassified certain amounts in prior periods to conform with current presentation. Notes payable, convertible notes payable, and convertible notes payable - related parties which were reported within loans payable at July 31, 2023 have been reclassified into their own lines within the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Basic and diluted loss per share
The basic earnings (loss) per share are calculated by dividing the Company's net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the year. The diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the Company's net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity.
NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Recent accounting pronouncements
In the period from August 1, 2023 through June 2024 the FASB has not issued any additional accounting standards updates that have a significant impact on the Company.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets, including accounts receivable. ASU No. 2016-13 will replace today's "incurred loss" approach with an "expected loss" model, under which companies will recognize allowances based on expected rather than incurred losses. On November 15, 2019, the FASB delayed the effective date of Topic 326 for certain small public companies and other private companies until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, for SEC filers that are eligible to be smaller reporting companies under the SEC's definition, as well as private companies and not-for-profit entities. In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-02, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. The guidance was issued as improvements to ASU No. 2016-13 described above. The vintage disclosure changes require an entity to disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables. The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years. On August 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASC 326, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses". the adoption did not have a material impact on Company's consolidated financial statements.
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, "Debt with Conversion and other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)" ("ASU 2020-06"). The purpose of ASU 2020-06 is to address issues identified as a result of the complexity associated with applying generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. The amendments in ASU 2020-06 are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on August 1, 2023, and the impact was considered immaterial on Company's consolidated financial statements.
Management has evaluated other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe that any of these pronouncements will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
NOTE 4 - GOING CONCERN
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has consistently sustained losses since its inception. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements. The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent upon, among other things, its ability to increase revenues, adequately control operating expenses and receive debt and/or equity capital from third parties. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
The Company intends to continue to address this condition by seeking to raise additional capital through the issuance of debt and/or the sale of equity until such time that ongoing revenues can sustain the business, at which time capitalization may be considered through other means.

NOTE 5 - RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Subsequent to the Company's filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2023, with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 21, 2023, the Company performed an evaluation of its accounting in relation with warrants issued in conjunction with the February 11, 2022 Mast Hill Fund, L.P. and February 17, 2022 Talos Victory Fund, L.P. convertible notes. Management determined that the Original Form 10-Q does not give effect to certain expenses identified. Accordingly, the Company restates its consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q as outlined further below. Upon review of the Company's previously filed 10-Q, the following errors were discovered and recorded:
1. Financing expense associated with the two convertible notes has been accrued and amortized instead of expensed in accordance with ASC 470-20-25.
2. The change in value of the warrants issued in conjunction with two convertible notes have been valued in accordance with ASC 820-10 as clarified by ASU 2022-03.
3. The Statement of Operations and Statement of Cash Flows have been adjusted to reflect the change in warrant financing expenses, expenses associated with the convertible notes, and income associated with conversion of the convertible notes. Adjustments to the fair value of the warrants have also been reflected as other income.

The specific explanations for the items noted above in the restated financial statements are as follows:
(1) During February 2022, the Company entered into two convertible notes that included warrants exercisable for five years. Management determined that the original consolidated balance sheet, consolidated statement of operations, and consolidated statement of cash flows amounts did not give effect to the issuance of warrants to purchase shares at a price between $1.50 and $3.00 per share of the common stock outstanding. The Company recorded an additional noncash interest expense of $117,508 and $183,705 (included within selling, general and administrative expenses, interest expense and financing expenses) and the adjustment to the fair value of $(9,000) and $40,892 for the three and nine months ended April 30, 2023, respectively, in relation to the Warrant.
(2) On October 4, 2022 Talos Fund exercised its right to convert the principal and accrued interest from its promissory note in the amount of $297,364 at $0.58 per share of the Company's common stock. The conversion price was above the market price at closing of $0.355 per share. Therefore, the Company recognized a gain of $115,357 on conversion.
(3) During the three and nine months ended April 30, 2023, the business transactions of the Company's West African subsidiary, Hammer Wireless - SL, Ltd., whose functional currency is the Sierra Leonean Leone, incurred $27,369 in foreign currency translation adjustments.
(4) Other corrections with immaterial impact on the condensed consolidated statement of operations and statement of cash flow.

Results of Operations
Three Months Ended April 30, 2024 Compared to the Three Months Ended April 30, 2023
Net revenues for the three months ended April 30, 2024, and April 30, 2023 were $770,412 and $767,527 respectively, an increase of approximately $2,885 or 0.4%. The increase was primarily due to the expansion of the Company's Over-the-Top ("OTT") business segment which includes its SMS messaging and hosting business units.
During the three months ended April 30, 2024, the Company incurred total operating expenses of $1,059,174 compared with $788,698 during the comparable period April 30, 2023. This increase of approximately $270,476 or 35% is due to an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $262,008 in the quarter.
The Company recorded depreciation and amortization expense of $13,471 and $14,608 during the three months ended April 30, 2024, and April 30, 2023, respectively. During the three months ended April 30, 2024, and April 30, 2023 interest expense was $21,756 and $6,379 respectively.
During the three months ended April 30, 2024, the Company incurred total other expense of $215,705 primarily consisting of interest expense, financing expense, and loss on fair value of warrant liability, of $21,756, $173,520 and, $29,250, respectively. These expenses are partially offset by other income in the quarter of $9,621, which represents income from previously written-down customer accounts receivable. During the three months ended April 30, 2023 the Company incurred total other expense of $184,540 consisting of interest expense, financing expense, and loss on fair value of warrant liability of $6,379, $175,960, and $13,500. These expenses are partially offset by other income of $11,467.
During the three months ended April 30, 2024 the Company recorded a net loss of $504,467, compared to a loss of $205,711 in the same three-month period ended April 30, 2023. The increase in loss is due to a large increase in the Company's total other expenses and selling, general, and administrative expenses quarter over quarter.
Nine Months Ended April 30, 2024 Compared to the Nine Months Ended April 30, 2023
Net revenues for the nine months ended April 30, 2024 and April 30, 2023 were $2,506,966 and $2,311,038 respectively, an increase of approximately $195,928 or 8.5%. The increase was primarily due to the expansion of the Company's Over-the-Top ("OTT") business segment which includes its SMS messaging and hosting business units.
During the nine months ended April 30, 2024, the Company incurred total operating expenses of $3,050,369 compared with $2,768,264, an increase of approximately $282,105 or 10.2%, for the comparable period ended April 30, 2023. The increase in expenses is due to the expenses associated with the Company's diversification into the financial services markets and increased expenses associated with the expansion of the telecommunications business segment.
The Company recorded depreciation and amortization expense of $43,441 and $45,416 during the nine months ended April 30, 2024 and April 30, 2023 respectively. During the nine months ended April 30, 2024 and April 30, 2023 interest expense was $62,061 and $7,628 respectively.
F-23
During the nine months ended April 30, 2024, the Company incurred total other expense of $38,261 primarily consisting of interest expense, financing expense, and other expenses of $62,061, $187,955, and $13,915, respectively. These expenses are partially offset by other income in the nine months ended April 30, 2023 of $178,420, which represents income from previously written-down customer accounts receivable. During the nine months ended April 30, 2023 the Company incurred total other expenses of $171,710 consisting of interest expense and financing expense of $7,628 and $316,897. These expenses are partially offset by other income, gain on fair value of warrant liability, and gain extinguishment of convertible debt of $11,467, $27,392, and $115,357.
During the nine months ended April 30, 2024 the Company recorded a net loss of $581,664, compared to a loss of $628,936 in the same nine month period ended April 30, 2023. The increase in loss is due to a large increase in the Company's total other expenses and selling, general, and administrative expenses year over year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company is at risk of remaining a going concern. Its ability to remain a going concern is dependent upon whether the company can raise debt and/or equity capital from third-party sources for both working capital and business development needs until such time as the Company may be substantially sustained as a going concern through cash flow from operations or the Company increases its cash flow from operations through sale of services in the ongoing business units, Endstream Communications, 1stPoint Communications and HammerPay.
Cash Flow from Operating Activities
During the nine months ended April 30, 2024 the Company's total cash increased by $23,516, compared to a decrease in cash of $369,703 in the period ended April 30, 2023. Cash flow used in operating activities was $614,568, compared to $467,530 in the period ended April 30, 2023. The increase was partially due to an increase in net loss in the period as well as increases in accounts receivables, decreases in accounts payables, and decreases in deferred revenues, partially offset by a decrease in non-cash interest expense and depreciation expense.
Cash Flow from Investing Activities
During the nine months ended April 30, 2024, the Company's investing activities used $48,349, compared to $14,138 used in investing activities during the nine months ended April 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the purchases of property and equipment as well as an increase in capitalized intangible assets during the period ended April 30, 2024.
Cash Flow from Financing Activities
During the nine months ended April 30, 2024, cash flow provided by financing activities was $686,433 compared with $139,334 provided during the nine months ended April 30, 2023. The increase is primarily attributable to greater borrowings of notes payable and convertible notes payable - related parties during the period. During the nine months ended April 30, 2024, the Company received approximately $77,279 more in proceeds from notes payable and approximately $452,574 more in proceeds from convertible notes payable - related parties as compared to the nine months ended April 30, 2023.
Going Concern
As of April 30, 2024, doubt existed as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern as the Company has no certainty of earning additional revenues in the future, has a working capital deficit and an overall accumulated deficit since inception. The Company will require additional financing to continue operations either from management, existing shareholders, or new shareholders through equity financing and/or sources of debt financing. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Future Financings
We will continue to rely on equity sales of our common shares in order to continue to fund business operations. Issuances of additional shares may result in dilution to existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing in amounts sufficient to fund our operations and other development activities.
F-24
Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. For the nine-month period ended April 30, 2024, there were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies as identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2023.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In the period from July 2023 through April 2024, the FASB has not issued any additional accounting standards updates that have a significant impact on the Company. Management has evaluated other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe that any of these pronouncements will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to reasonably ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based closely on the definition of "disclosure controls and procedures" in Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
At the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, we conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our Principal Officer and Principal Financial Officer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon the foregoing, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of April 30, 2024, the disclosure controls and procedures of our Company were not effective.
Material Weakness
Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2024. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013).
A material weakness in internal controls is a deficiency in internal control, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects our ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report external financial data reliably in accordance with GAAP such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected. In the course of making our assessment of the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting, we identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, this is due to an inherent staffing limitation to properly segregate duties and provide adequate monitoring during the process leading to and including the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
Internal control over financial reporting has inherent limitations which include but is not limited to the use of independent professionals for advice and guidance, interpretation of existing and/or changing rules and principles, segregation of management duties, scale of organization, and personnel factors. Internal control over financial reporting is a process which involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis, however these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process and it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the fiscal year 2024, we engaged an outsourced firm with a panel of CPA consultants to assist in building internal controls and preparing financial reports, and to establish best practices and help us document and implement all the checks and balances needed for all financial areas.
Except as listed above, there were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are not currently involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, or proceeding by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our Company or our subsidiary, threatened against or affecting our Company, our common stock, our subsidiary or of our companies or our subsidiary's officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.
