FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

Statements made in this Form 10-Q that are not historical or current facts are forward-looking statements. These statements often can be identified by the use of terms such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “approximate” or “continue,” or the negative thereof. We wish to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Any forward-looking statements represent management’s best judgment as to what may occur in the future. However, forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and important factors beyond our control that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from historical results of operations and events and those presently anticipated or projected. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements are the following: the Company’s ability to obtain necessary capital, the Company’s ability to meet anticipated development timelines, the Company’s ability to protect its proprietary technology and knowhow, the Company’s ability to establish a global market, the Company’s ability to successfully consummate future acquisitions and such other risk factors identified from time to time in the Company’s reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including those filed with this Form 10-Q quarterly report. We disclaim any obligation subsequently to revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statement or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Skkynet Cloud Systems, Inc. (“Skkynet” or “the Company”) is a Nevada corporation formed on August 31, 2011 and headquartered in Toronto, Canada. Skkynet operates its business through its wholly-owned subsidiaries Cogent Real-Time Systems, Inc. (“Cogent”), Skkynet Corp. (Canada), Skkynet, Inc. (USA) and Skkynet Japan (Japan). Skkynet was formed primarily for the purpose of taking the existing business lines of Cogent and its current and future customers and integrating these businesses with Cloud based systems. We also intend to expand the areas of business activity to which the kinds of products and services we provide are applied.

 

On November 1, 2014, the Company acquired Skkynet Japan NiC as a wholly owned subsidiary. On February 1, 2015, the Company formed a wholly owned US subsidiary Skkynet, Inc., and a wholly owned Canadian subsidiary Skkynet Corp.

 

On July 30, 2015, the Company designated 500,000 shares of the preferred stock as Series B Convertible preferred. The Series B shares have a par value of $0.001 and issue value of $1.00 per share. The series B is convertible by the holder into common stock at $1.35 per share. The Company may, any time at its option, redeem the Series B shares at their stated value. The Series B preferred shares hold a 6% per annum cumulative dividend. On July 30, 2015, the Company issued 193,661 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock to three related parties in exchange for the outstanding notes payable and accrued interest of $193,661. Dividends are not paid. The Company has accounted for $2,905 in Series B dividends which increases the loss to common shareholders from $154,312 to $157,217 for the three month period ended January 31, 2019.

 

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s October 31, 2018 Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year end October 31, 2018 as reported on Form 10-K, have been omitted.

 

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency in presentation with the current year presentation to better present this year’s grouping. The footnotes were added to present the sales by geographic area and line of business. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016–10 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing. The amendments in this Update do not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606. Rather, the amendments in this Update clarify the following two aspects of Topic 606: identifying performance obligations and the licensing implementation guidance, while retaining the related principles for those areas. Topic 606 includes implementation guidance on (a) contracts with customers to transfer goods and services in exchange for consideration and (b) determining whether an entity’s promise to grant a license provides a customer with either a right to use the entity’s intellectual property (which is satisfied at a point in time) or a right to access the entity’s intellectual property (which is satisfied over time). The amendments are intended to render more detailed implementation guidance with the expectation to reduce the degree of judgement necessary to comply with Topic 606.

 

ASC Topic 606 prescribes a new five-step model entities should follow in order to recognize revenue in accordance with the core principle. These five steps are:

 

 

1. Identify the contract(s) with a customer.

 

 

 

 

2. Identify the performance obligations in the contract.

 

 

 

 

3. Determine the transaction price.

 

 

 

 

4. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.

 

 

 

 

5. Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfied the performance obligations.

 

The Company has five revenue streams, each of which the revenue is recognized in accordance to the five steps included in topic 606 . The revenue streams are:

 

 

1. Sale of software direct to the end customer

 

 

 

 

2. Sale of software through distributors and channel partners

 

 

 

 

3. Maintenance support services

 

 

 

 

4. Cloud services

 

 

 

 

5. Hardware sales (Skkynet Japan only)

 

Effective November 1, 2018 the Company implemented the transition using the modified retrospective method of transition. Under this method the determination date of open contracts which could affect any adjustments was November 1, 2018. The open contracts at the time period are the unfulfilled portions of the maintenance contracts. Based on the cut off treatment of the recognition of revenue on the open contract being determined at the end of the previous period and being no changes in the open obligation requirements, the Company determined there are no adjustments in the value of the revenue recognized from these contracts.

 

As part of the revenue recognition reporting the Company reports revenue by product line and geographic area. During the three month periods ended January 31, 2019 and 2018 the revenue by product line was as follows:

NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Sakura Software, a corporation owned by our CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors, Andrew S. Thomas, and Benford Consultancy, a corporation owned by our COO and a member of our Board of Directors, Paul Benford, own, respectively, 72.34% and 27.66% of the issued and outstanding shares of Real Innovations International LLC, (“Real Innovations”) a corporation organized under the laws of Nevis, West Indies. In March 2012, Cogent, our operating subsidiary, assigned all of its intellectual property including the pending patent applications for its real-time data transmission and display technology (the “IP”) to Real Innovations under an assignment of intellectual property agreement (the “Assignment Agreement”). In return for the assignment Real Innovations required a one-time payment of $30,000 to Cogent. Cogent elected to forgo the payment allowing Real Innovations to offset future expenses against the payment. There is no ongoing royalty payment or other form of compensation from Real Innovations to Cogent under the Assignment Agreement.

 

Real Innovations, in turn, entered into a master intellectual property license agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Cogent for all of the same IP. Under the License Agreement Real Innovations granted a royalty-free license in perpetuity to Cogent for the use and exploitation of the IP in return for which Cogent agreed to: (i) pay all operating expenses of Real Innovations incurred in connection with the continued prosecution of pending patent applications and others that may be prepared; (ii) prosecute all claims for infringement of the IP; (iii) defend and indemnify Real Innovations from and against all claims of infringement of the IP asserted by third parties against Real Innovations, Cogent or our Company; (iv) purchase liability insurance in favor of Real Innovations for this purpose. Under the termination provision of the licenses agreement, there is no unilateral right of termination. Termination may occur by mutual consent of the parities, the Company ceasing doing business, by breach by the Company or by the Company failing to maintain the license and the support to prosecute and protect the license under applicable laws.

 

Under the License Agreement, Messrs. Andrew S. Thomas and Paul Benford will benefit indirectly from their indirect ownership of all of the shares of Real Innovations to the extent of any such payments or other undertakings by Cogent on behalf of Real Innovations, but the exact amount of these benefits cannot be determined at this time.

 

During the three month periods ended January 31, 2019 and 2018 the Company recognized but did not pay dividends of $2,905 and $2,905, respectively.

 

As of January 31, 2019, and October 31, 2018, the Company had the following outstanding accrued liabilities due to related parties:

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

This report contains forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Skkynet’s actual results could differ materially from those set forth on the forward-looking statements as a result of the risks set forth in Skkynet’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, general economic conditions, and changes in the assumptions used in making such forward looking statements.

 

OVERVIEW

 

Skkynet is a Nevada corporation headquartered in Mississauga, Canada. Skkynet operates three different lines of business through its wholly-owned subsidiaries Cogent Real-Time Systems, Inc. (“Cogent”), Skkynet, Inc. (“Skkynet (USA)”), Skkynet Corp. (“Skkynet (Canada)”), and Skkynet Japan Corporation (“formally Nic”). Skkynet was established to enhance Cogent’s existing business lines through the integration of Cloud-based systems, and to deliver a Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) product targeting the Industrial Internet of Things (“IoT”) market, now referred to by the terms “Industry 4.0” and “Industrial Internet Consortium”.

 

The Company provides software and related systems and facilities to collect process and distribute real-time information over a network. This capability allows the customers to both locally and remotely manage, supervise and control industrial processes and financial information systems. By using this software and, when requested by a client, our web based assets, our clients and their customers (to the extent relevant) are given the ability and the tools to observe and interact with these processes and services in real-time as they are underway and to give them the power to analyze, alter, stop or otherwise influence these activities to conform to their plans.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

For the three month period ending January 31, 2019, revenue was $293,129 compared to $382,879 for the same period in 2018. Revenue decreased for the three month period ending January 31, 2019 over same period ended January 31, 2018 by 23.4%. The decrease in revenue for the three month period ended January 31, 2019 is attributed to lower sales by the Cogent and Skkynet Japan divisions, on an international basis, of the products of the Company verses an unusually high sales for the Company in the same period in 2018.

 

General and administrative expense was $447,604 for the three month period ended January 31, 2019 compared to $517,809 for the same period in 2018. The decrease in general and administrative expenses for the three month period ended January 31, 2019, was a result of lower operating expense along with lower payroll in 2019 over 2018.

 

For the three month period ending January 31, 2019, the Company posted operating loss of $160,749 compared to operating loss of $148,457 for the same period in 2018. The increase in operating loss during the three month period is attributable to significantly lower sales in the 2019 period over the same period in 2018, offset partially by decreased expenses in consulting, salaries, and office expenses in the three month period ended January 31, 2019.

  

Other income and expense for the three month period ending January 31, 2019, was income of $6,437 compared to other expense of $20,645 for the same period in 2018 due to currency changes.

Net loss before income taxes of $154,312 was recorded for the three month period ending January 31, 2019, compared to a net loss before income taxes of $169,102 for the same period in 2018. The lower loss for the three month period in 2019 can be attributed to lower general and administrative expenses and other income in 2019 compared to other expense in 2018.

 

Net loss after taxes of $154,312 was recorded for the three month period ending January 31, 2019, compared to a net loss after taxes of $169,102 for the same period in 2018.

 

The Company incurred a comprehensive loss of $165,963 for the three month period ended January 31, 2019 compared to a comprehensive loss of $135,682 for the same period in 2018. The comprehensive loss is an adjustment to net loss with accrued preferred stock dividends and foreign currency translation adjustments along with taxes taken into account.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

At January 31, 2019, Skkynet had current assets of $816,163 and current liabilities of $277,843, resulting in working capital of $538,320. Accumulated deficit, as of January 31, 2019, was $5,501,335 with total shareholders’ equity of $552,875.

 

Net cash provided in operations for the three months ending January 31, 2019, was $3,649 compared to net cash used of $29,461 for the same period in 2018.

 

Net cash used in operations decreased $33,110 primarily due to a decrease in net loss in 2019 over 2018 of which $43,068 is attributable to lower option discounts in 2019 over 2018.

 

Net cash provided from financing activities, during the three month period ended January 31, 2019 and the same period in 2018 was $0.

 

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

 

We have no 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 that are material to stockholders.

 

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, Skkynet is not required to provide information required under this Item.

 

ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

This report includes the certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer required by Rule 13a-14 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). See Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2. This Item 4 includes information concerning the controls and control evaluations referred to in those certifications.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

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

 

In connection with the preparation of this report, our management, under the supervision and with participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer (the “Certifying Officers”) conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of January 31, 2019. Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that there is a material weakness in our disclosure controls and procedures over financial reporting. The material weakness results from a lack of written procedures which effectively documents the proper procedures and descriptions of the duties of all persons involved in the disclosure controls of the Company. The Company hopes to implement plans to document the procedures and internal controls of the Company. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, in disclosure control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. This does not include an evaluation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during our most recent quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Our management believes that the Unaudited Financial Statements included herein present, in all material respects, the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
