Unless the context otherwise requires, references to “we,” “our,” “us,” or the “Company” in this prospectus mean Orbital Tracking Corp. on a consolidated basis with its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
Orbital Tracking Corp.
The Company is a distributor, developer and reseller of satellite enabled communications hardware and provides products, airtime and related services to customers located both in the United States and internationally through its subsidiaries, U.S. based Orbital Satcom Corp. (“Orbital Satcom”) and U.K. based Global Telesat Communications Limited (“GTCL”). We sell equipment and airtime for use on all major satellite networks including Globalstar, Inmarsat, Iridium and Thuraya. We specialize in offering a range of satellite enabled personal and asset tracking products and provide an advanced mapping portal for customers using our range of GSM and satellite based GPS tracking devices. Additionally, we operate a short-term rental service for customers who require use of our equipment for a limited time without the up-front expense of purchasing hardware.
Our acquisition of GTCL in February 2015 expanded our global satellite based infrastructure and business, which was first launched in December 2014 through the purchase of certain contracts which entitle us to transmit GPS tracking coordinates and other information at preferential rates through one of the world’s largest commercial satellite networks.
We now have a physical presence in the U.K and Miami, as well as our online storefront presence in more than 10 countries, and have in excess of 20,000 customers located in almost 80 countries across every continent in the world. Our customers include businesses, U.S. and foreign governments, non-governmental and charitable organizations, military users and private individuals located all over the world.
MSS Products
Through GTCL, we believe we are one of the leading providers in Europe of Mobile Satellite Solutions (MSS) including satellite trackers, satellite phones, mobile broadband Wi-Fi hotspots and terminals. By enabling wireless communications in areas not served or underserved by terrestrial wireless networks, or in circumstances where terrestrial networks are not operational due to natural or man-made disasters, we seek to meet our customers’ increasing desire for connectivity anywhere in the world.
Our MSS products rely on satellite networks for voice, data and tracking connectivity and thus are not reliant on cell towers or other local infrastructure. As a result, our MSS solutions are suitable for recreational travelers and adventurers, government and military users, and corporations and individuals wishing to communicate from remote locations, or in the event of an emergency such as a power outage, hurricane or other natural disaster during which regular cell phone, telephone and internet service may not be available. We purchase these products directly from the manufacturers or distribution partners and sell them directly to end users and a growing base of resellers that we have around the world.
Our principal focus is on growing our existing satellite based hardware, airtime and related services, specifically services attracting recurring revenue for the Company. Additionally, we are developing our own dual mode tracking device for use by retail, corporate and governmental customers worldwide which we hope will further increase future revenue.
Satellite Communications Services
As a result of the purchase of contracts and assets from Global Telesat Corp. (“GTC”) in December 2014, we commenced providing satellite communications services globally via satellite over Globalstar’s satellite based simplex data network. We provide this service through our Orbital Satcom and GTC subsidiaries. Our rights under the purchased contracts allow us to have preferred pricing arrangements with Globalstar for each account used during the term of contracts. We then offer our customers a range of prepaid and monthly fee satellite communications airtime options.
5 |
The simplex service is a one-way burst data transmission from a commercial simplex device over the Globalstar network that can be used to track and monitor assets. We can use each simplex or one-way transmission account to transmit an unlimited number of locational or status messages from tracking devices used anywhere within the Globalstar simplex coverage area. At the heart of the simplex service is a demodulator and RF interface, called an applique, which is located at a Globalstar gateway. The gateways equipped with appliques, many of which are owned by us, provide coverage for simplex tracking devices over vast areas of the globe. The applique receives and collates messages from all simplex tracking devices transmitting over the Globalstar network. Simplex tracking devices consist of a telemetry unit, an application specific sensor, a battery and optional global positioning functionality. The small size of the devices makes them attractive for use in tracking asset shipments, monitoring unattended remote assets, trailer tracking and mobile security together with lone worker or recreational user safety.
Aside from providing services over Globalstar’s simplex data network, we are, through GTCL and Orbital Satcom, an authorized reseller of Globalstar’s two-way voice and data transmissions service, called the duplex service, and simplex and duplex satellite telecommunications services offered by other leading networks such as Iridium, Inmarsat and Thuraya. We offer a range of prepaid and monthly contract satellite communications airtime options from these network providers. We typically pay the network providers a monthly access fee per subscriber, as well as usage fees for airtime minutes used by our subscribers. This is a rapidly growing market and we believe we are well positioned to take advantage of this growth. Our customers are in industries such as maritime, aviation, government/military, emergency/humanitarian services, mining, forestry, oil and gas, heavy equipment, transportation and utilities as well as recreational users. We are focused on growing and diversifying our customer base, increasing our product range and making maximum use of our preferred pricing arrangements with Globalstar, which are long term contracts that currently generate approximately 5% of our annual revenue.
Online Storefronts
We operate two mobile friendly e-commerce websites through our Orbital Satcom and GTCL subsidiaries which offer a range of MSS products and solutions. These websites produce sales and attract enquiries from customers and potential customers from all around the world. Over the long term, we plan to develop additional country-specific websites or offer translation options on our existing websites to target customers in South America, Asia and Europe where we anticipate there will be substantial further demand for our products.
In addition to our two main e-commerce websites, we make portable satellite voice, data and tracking solutions easier to find and buy online through our various third-party e-commerce storefronts offered by Amazon, eBay, Sears and Walmart. We currently have storefronts in the UK, US, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Mexico, Japan and Canada. We have invested in personnel to translate our listings correctly in the different countries we are represented in and are regularly improving and increasing our listings on all Amazon sites. We currently have more than 1,000 product listings on all third-party sites and invest in inventory to hold at Amazon’s various warehouses around the world to ensure that orders are shipped and received by customers as quickly as possible. The products include handheld satellite phones, personal and asset tracking devices, portable high-speed broadband terminals, and satellite Wi-Fi hotspots.
Mapping and Tracking Portal
Our advanced mapping and tracking portals, www.orbitaltrack.com offered by Orbital Satcom, and www.gtctrack.com offered by GTCL, are available for use by registered customers who pay a monthly subscription to access them. OrbitalTrack and GTCTrack display real-time worldwide asset location reports including position, speed, altitude and heading and also provides past location and movement history reports on a wide range of tracking devices. These mapping portals are available to all of our customers to monitor their assets and we intend to aggressively pursue new customers for this application.

Proprietary Satellite Tracking Products
We are currently developing our first own brand global tracking product, a dual-mode asset tracker, of which we hope to make available in the marketplace in early 2018 following final testing and receipt of necessary regulatory and compatibility certifications. The Company’s dual-mode asset tracker is designed to address the current technical and service cost challenges facing the global Asset Management Systems market,. The first product designed and developed by the Company, the dual-mode tracker utilizes both cellular and satellite technology to provide truly global tracking, automatically switching between the cellular and satellite links making it an ideal solution for use in both populated and remote areas, including trans-oceanic routes. For commercial users in transportation, shipping, logistics, fleet management and construction, it features detailing reporting alerts, status and GPS location data allowing cargo and vehicles to be tracked nearly anywhere in the world while lowering operating costs by utilizing cellular when available and satellite in remote areas, optimizing roaming charges and delivering significant cost savings, by easily locating lost or stolen assets.
We anticipate that we will be able to finalize development and certification of the new dual-mode tracker for approximately $50,000 to $75,000 and believe there is strong customer demand based on existing customer requests.
We also intend to develop additional personal and asset tracking products suitable for government and recreational users. Users of these devices will be able to see the location and movements of their devices through our OrbitalTrack or GTCTrack portals. Anticipated costs for completion are approximately $75,000 to $100,000. These products may operate on the Iridium, Inmarsat, Globalstar or Thuraya satellite networks.
Corporate History and Information
On January 22, 2015, we changed our name to “Orbital Tracking Corp.” from “Great West Resources, Inc.” pursuant to a merger with a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary.
On March 28, 2014, we merged with a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of ours solely for the purpose of changing our state of incorporation to Nevada from Delaware, effecting a 1:150 reverse split of our common stock, and changing our name to Great West Resources, Inc. in connection with the plans to enter into the business of potash mining and exploration. During late 2014, we abandoned our efforts to enter the potash business.
We were originally incorporated in 1997 as a Florida corporation. On April 21, 2010, we merged with and into a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary for the purpose of changing our state of incorporation to Delaware, effecting a 2:1 forward split of our common stock, and changing our name to EClips Media Technologies, Inc. On April 25, 2011, we changed our name to “Silver Horn Mining Ltd.” pursuant to a merger with a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary.
GTCL was formed under the laws of England and Wales in 2008. On February 19, 2015, we entered into a share exchange agreement with GTCL and all of the holders of the outstanding equity of GTCL pursuant to which GTCL became a wholly owned subsidiary of ours.

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Prospective investors should carefully consider the risks described below and other information contained in this prospectus, including our financial statements and related notes before purchasing shares of our common stock. There are numerous and varied risks, known and unknown, that may prevent us from achieving our goals. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations may be materially adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline and investors in our common stock could lose all or part of their investment.
Risks Related to Our Business
We have a history of net losses and we are uncertain about our future profitability.
We have incurred significant net losses since our inception, including net losses of $2.6 million in 2016, $2.1 million in 2015 and $3,360,273 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. As of June 30, 2017, we had an accumulated deficit of $7,961,679. If our revenue grows more slowly than currently anticipated, or if operating expenses are higher than expected, we may be unable to consistently achieve profitability, our financial condition will suffer and the value of our common stock could decline. Even if we are successful increasing our sales, we may incur losses in the foreseeable future as we continue to develop and market our products.
If sales revenue from any of our current products or any additional products that we develop in the future is insufficient, or if our product development is delayed, we may be unable to achieve profitability. Furthermore, even if we are able to achieve profitability, we may be unable to sustain or increase such profitability on a quarterly or annual basis, which would significantly reduce the value of our common stock.
If we are unable to continue as a going concern, our securities will have little or no value.
The report of our independent registered public accounting firm that accompanies our audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 contain a going concern qualification in which such firm expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. At June 30 , 2017, we had an accumulated deficit of $7,961,679 and working capital of $322,092, and a net loss of $3,360,273 during the six months ended June 30 , 2017. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result if we are unable to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to continue as a going concern, holders of our common stock might lose their entire investment.
We plan to attempt to raise additional equity capital by selling shares in this offering and, if necessary, through one or more private placement or public offerings. However, the doubts raised, relating to our ability to continue as a going concern, may make our shares an unattractive investment for potential investors. These factors, among others, may make it difficult to raise any additional capital.
Our dependence on key suppliers puts us at risk of interruptions in the availability of our products, which could reduce our revenue and adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, increases in prices for components used in our products could adversely affect our results of operations.
We require the timely delivery of sufficient amounts of materials and components, some of which are custom made, to manufacture our products. For reasons of quality assurance, cost effectiveness or availability, we procure certain materials and components from a single or limited number of suppliers. We generally acquire such materials and components through purchase orders placed in the ordinary course of business, and as a result we may not have a significant inventory of these materials and components and generally do not have any guaranteed or contractual supply arrangements with many of these suppliers. Our reliance on these supplier’s subjects us to risks that could harm our business, including, but not limited to, difficulty locating and qualifying alternative suppliers.
Our dependence on third-party suppliers involves several other risks, including limited control over pricing, availability, quality and delivery schedules. Suppliers of materials and components may decide, or be required, for reasons beyond our control, to cease supplying materials and components to us or to raise their prices. Shortages of materials, quality control problems, production capacity constraints or delays by our suppliers could negatively affect our ability to meet our production requirements and result in increased prices for affected materials or components. We may also face delays, yield issues and quality control problems if we are required to locate and secure new sources of supply. While we have not experienced any to date, any material shortage, constraint or delay may result in delays in shipments of our products, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations. Increases in prices for materials and components used in our products could also materially adversely affect our results of operations.
We may need to raise additional capital to grow our business and satisfy our anticipated future liquidity needs, and we may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to us, or at all.
Growing and operating our business will require significant cash outlays, liquidity reserves and capital expenditures and commitments to respond to business challenges, including developing or enhancing new or existing products. As of June 30, 2017, we had cash on hand of $501,689. If cash on hand, cash generated from operations, and the net proceeds from this offering are not sufficient to meet our cash and liquidity needs, we may need to seek additional capital, potentially through debt or equity financings. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of additional equity or convertible securities, your ownership interest may be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a stockholder. Debt financing, if available, would result in increased fixed payment obligations and a portion of our operating cash flows, if any, being dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on such indebtedness. In addition, debt financing may involve agreements that include restrictive covenants that impose operating restrictions, such as restrictions on the incurrence of additional debt, the making of certain capital expenditures or the declaration of dividends. Any additional fundraising efforts may divert our management from their day-to-day activities, which may adversely affect our ability to develop and commercialize our products. Even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans, we may seek additional capital if market conditions are favorable or in light of specific strategic considerations. If we are unable to obtain funding on a timely basis, we may be required to significantly curtail, delay or discontinue one or more of our research or product candidate development programs or the commercialization of any product candidate or be unable to expand our operations or otherwise capitalize on our business opportunities, as desired, which could materially affect our business, operating results and prospects and cause the price of the common stock to decline.

Product development is a long, expensive and uncertain process.
The development of our own branded range of satellite tracking devices is a costly, complex and time-consuming process, and the investment in product development often involves a long wait until a return, if any, is achieved on such investment. Investments in new technology and processes are inherently speculative. We have experienced numerous setbacks and delays in our research and development efforts and may encounter further obstacles in the course of the development of additional technologies and products. We may not be able to overcome these obstacles or may have to expend significant additional funds and time. Technical obstacles and challenges we encounter in our research and development process may result in delays in or abandonment of product commercialization, may substantially increase the costs of development, and may negatively affect our results of operations.
Successful technical development of our products does not guarantee successful commercialization.
We may successfully complete the technical development for one or all of our product development programs, but still fail to develop a commercially successful product for a number of reasons, including among others the following:
● | failure to obtain the required regulatory approvals for their use; | |
● | prohibitive production costs; | |
● | competing products; | |
● | lack of innovation of the product; | |
● | ineffective distribution and marketing; | |
● | lack of sufficient cooperation from our partners; and | |
● | demonstrations of the products not aligning with or meeting customer needs. |
Our success in the market for the products we develop will depend largely on our ability to prove our products’ capabilities. Upon demonstration, our satellite ground stations and tracking devices may not have the capabilities they were designed to have or that we believed they would have. Furthermore, even if we do successfully demonstrate our products’ capabilities, potential customers may be more comfortable doing business with a larger, more established, more proven company than us. Moreover, competing products may prevent us from gaining wide market acceptance of our products. Significant revenue from new product investments may not be achieved for a number of years, if at all.
If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, we could lose our ability to compete in the marketplace.
Our intellectual property and proprietary rights are important to our ability to remain competitive and for the success of our products and our business. We rely on a combination of trademark and trade secret laws as well as confidentiality agreements and procedures, non-compete agreements and other contractual provisions to protect our intellectual property, other proprietary rights and our brand. We have confidentiality agreements in place with our consultants, Globalstar, customers and certain business suppliers and plan to require future employees to enter into confidentiality and non-compete agreements. We have little protection when we must rely on trade secrets and nondisclosure agreements. Our intellectual property rights may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented by third parties. We may not be able to prevent the unauthorized disclosure or use of our technical knowledge or other trade secrets by employees or competitors. Furthermore, our competitors may independently develop technologies and products that are substantially equivalent or superior to our technologies and/or products, which could result in decreased revenues. Moreover, the laws of foreign countries may not protect our intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the U.S. Litigation may be necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights which could result in substantial costs to us and substantial diversion of management attention. If we do not adequately protect our intellectual property, our competitors could use it to enhance their products. Our inability to adequately protect our intellectual property rights could adversely affect our business and financial condition, and the value of our brand and other intangible assets.
11 |
Other companies may claim that we infringe their intellectual property, which could materially increase our costs and harm our ability to generate future revenue and profit.
We do not believe that we infringe the proprietary rights of any third party, but claims of infringement are becoming increasingly common and third parties may assert infringement claims against us. It may be difficult or impossible to identify, prior to receipt of notice from a third party, the trade secrets, patent position or other intellectual property rights of a third party, either in the United States or in foreign jurisdictions. Any such assertion may result in litigation or may require us to obtain a license for the intellectual property rights of third parties. If we are required to obtain licenses to use any third-party technology, we would have to pay royalties, which may significantly reduce any profit on our products. In addition, any such litigation could be expensive and disruptive to our ability to generate revenue or enter into new market opportunities. If any of our products were found to infringe other parties’ proprietary rights and we are unable to come to terms regarding a license with such parties, we may be forced to modify our products to make them non-infringing or to cease production of such products altogether.
The nature of our business involves significant risks and uncertainties that may not be covered by insurance or indemnity.
We develop and sell products where insurance or indemnification may not be available, including:
● | designing and developing products using advanced and unproven technologies in intelligence and homeland security applications that are intended to operate in high demand, high risk situations; and | |
● | designing and developing products to collect, distribute and analyze various types of information. |
Failure of certain of our products could result in loss of life or property damage. Certain products may raise questions with respect to issues of privacy rights, civil liberties, intellectual property, trespass, conversion and similar concepts, which may raise new legal issues. Indemnification to cover potential claims or liabilities resulting from a failure of technologies developed or deployed may be available in certain circumstances but not in others. We are not able to maintain insurance to protect against all operational risks and uncertainties. Substantial claims resulting from an accident, failure of our product, or liability arising from our products in excess of any indemnity or insurance coverage (or for which indemnity or insurance is not available or was not obtained) could harm our financial condition, cash flows, and operating results. Any accident, even if fully covered or insured, could negatively affect our reputation among our customers and the public, and make it more difficult for us to compete effectively.
Our sales may be impacted should there be a disruption of service to our Amazon online storefronts
The Company’s Amazon online marketplaces represented 46.9%, 40.2% and 37.7% of total sales for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2016 and the six-month period ended June 30, 2017, respectively and we anticipate that these marketplaces will continue to represent a significant portion of our sales for the foreseeable future. Should there be a disruption of Amazon services this may impact our sales adversely.
We are heavily reliant on David Phipps, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and the departure or loss of David Phipps could disrupt our business.
The Company depends heavily on the continued efforts of David Phipps, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and a director. Mr. Phipps is the founder of GTCL and is essential to the Company’s strategic vision and day-to-day operations and would be difficult to replace. Mr. Phipps’ two-year employment contract expires January 1, 2018 and we cannot be certain that he will desire to continue with us for the duration of the employment term. The departure or loss of Mr. Phipps, or the inability to timely hire and retain a qualified replacement, could negatively impact the Company’s ability to manage its business.
12 |
If we are unable to recruit and retain key management, technical and sales personnel, our business would be negatively affected.
For our business to be successful, we need to attract and retain highly qualified technical, management and sales personnel. The failure to recruit additional key personnel when needed with specific qualifications and on acceptable terms or to retain good relationships with our partners might impede our ability to continue to develop, commercialize and sell our products. To the extent the demand for skilled personnel exceeds supply, we could experience higher labor, recruiting and training costs in order to attract and retain such employees. We face competition for qualified personnel from other companies with significantly more resources available to them and thus may not be able to attract the level of personnel needed for our business to succeed.
The control deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting may until remedied cause errors in our financial statements or cause our filings with the SEC to not be timely.
We believe our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective due to our limited internal audit functions and lack of ability to have multiple levels of transaction review in our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2017, including those related to (i) a lack of segregation of duties within accounting functions, which was exacerbated by our entrance into the mobile satellite communications business in December 2015 and consummation of the share exchange in February 2015, and (ii) the need for a new accounting system to effectively manage our increased volume of transactions. If our internal control over financial reporting or disclosure controls and procedures are not effective, there may be errors in our financial statements that could require a restatement or our filings may not be timely made with the SEC. We intend to implement additional corporate governance and control measures to strengthen our control environment as we are able, but we may not achieve our desired objectives. Moreover, no control environment, no matter how well designed and operated, can prevent or detect all errors or fraud. We may identify material weaknesses and control deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting in the future that may require remediation and could lead investors losing confidence in our reported financial information, which could lead to a decline in our stock price.
Risks Related to Our Organization and Our Common Stock
Certain shareholders will be able to exert significant influence over us to the detriment of minority stockholders.
Our ten largest shareholders beneficially own approximately 36.1% of our outstanding common stock as of August 30, 2017, as calculated according to voting power. These stockholders, if they act together, will be able to exert significant influence on our management and affairs and all matters requiring stockholder approval, including significant corporate transactions. This concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying or preventing our change in control and might affect the market price of our common stock. For a period of one year from the date of subscription, holders of the Company’s Series F Preferred Stock, Series G Preferred Stock, Series H Preferred Stock and Preferred Series J Preferred Stock have post offering covenants prohibiting the Company to issue any or become subject to any indebtedness greater than $250,000, except for ordinary trade payables without the written consent of Purchasers then holding more than 50% of the Shares (the "Required Majority") and the Company shall not issue any equity securities without the consent of the Required Majority.
You may experience dilution of your ownership interests because of the future issuance of additional shares of our common or preferred stock or other securities that are convertible into or exercisable for our common or preferred stock.
We are authorized to issue an aggregate of 750,000,000 shares of common stock and 50,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock. In the future, we may issue our authorized but previously unissued equity securities, resulting in the dilution of the ownership interests of our present stockholders. We may issue additional shares of our common stock or other securities that are convertible into or exercisable for our common stock in connection with hiring or retaining employees, future acquisitions, future sales of our securities for capital raising purposes, or for other business purposes. The future issuance of any such additional shares of our common stock may create downward pressure on the trading price of the common stock. We will need to raise additional capital in the near future to meet our working capital needs, and there can be no assurance that we will not be required to issue additional shares, warrants or other convertible securities in the future in conjunction with these capital raising efforts, including at a price (or exercise or conversion prices) below the price an investor paid for stock.
13 |
Conversion of our outstanding preferred stock may dilute the ownership interest of existing stockholders or may otherwise depress the price of our common stock.
The conversion of some or all of our outstanding Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock, Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock, Series G Preferred Stock, Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock, will dilute the ownership interests of existing stockholders. In addition, the existence of the preferred stock may encourage short selling by market participants because the conversion of the preferred stock could be used to satisfy short positions, or anticipated conversion of the preferred stock into shares of our common stock could depress the price of our common stock.
The total number of shares of preferred stock authorized, preferred stock issued and outstanding as of August 30 , 2017 and common stock that may be issued upon conversion of each class of preferred stock as of August 30, 2017 is set forth below.
Class of Preferred Stock | Authorized Shares of Preferred Stock |

(1) | Not accounting for any applicable limitations on beneficial ownership. |
Even though the holders of the convertible preferred stock may not convert these securities if they would own more than 9.99% or 4.99%, as applicable, of the then-outstanding common stock, this restriction does not prevent these holders from selling some of their holdings and then converting additional shares. In this way, the holders could sell more than these limits while never holding more than those limits.
You will experience future dilution as a result of future equity offerings
We may in the future offer additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock. Although no assurances can be given that we will consummate a financing, in the event we do, or in the event we sell shares of common stock or other securities convertible into shares of our common stock in the future, additional and substantial dilution will occur. In addition, investors purchasing shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to investors in this offering.
We do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock, and investors may lose the entire amount of their investment.
Cash dividends have never been declared or paid on our common stock, and we do not anticipate such a declaration or payment for the foreseeable future. We expect to use future earnings, if any, to fund business growth. Therefore, stockholders will not receive any funds absent a sale of their shares of common stock. If we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because a return on your investment will only occur if our stock price appreciates. We cannot assure stockholders of a positive return on their investment when they sell their shares, nor can we assure that stockholders will not lose the entire amount of their investment.
Being a public company is expensive and administratively burdensome.
As a public reporting company, we are subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and other federal securities laws, rules and regulations related thereto, including compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Complying with these laws and regulations requires the time and attention of our Board of Directors and management, and increases our expenses. We estimate the Company will incur approximately $200,000 to $300,000 annually in connection with being a public company.
14 |
Among other things, we are required to:
● | maintain and evaluate a system of internal controls over financial reporting in compliance with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the related rules and regulations of the SEC and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board; |
● | prepare and distribute periodic reports in compliance with our obligations under federal securities laws; |
● | institute a more comprehensive compliance function, including with respect to corporate governance; and |
● | involve, to a greater degree, our outside legal counsel and accountants in the above activities. |
The costs of preparing and filing annual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders are expensive and much greater than that of a privately-held company, and compliance with these rules and regulations may require us to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel, and will involve a material increase in regulatory, legal and accounting expenses and the attention of management. There can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with the applicable regulations in a timely manner, if at all. In addition, being a public company makes it more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance. In the future, we may be required to accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain this coverage.
The decision by British voters to exit the European Union may negatively impact our operations.
The June 2016 referendum by British voters to exit the European Union (“Brexit”) adversely impacted global markets and resulted in a sharp decline in the value of the British pound, as compared to the U.S. dollar and other currencies. As the U.K. negotiates its exit from the European Union, volatility in exchange rates and in U.K. interest rates may continue. In the near term, a weaker British pound compared to the U.S. dollar during a reporting period causes local currency results of our U.K. operations to be translated into fewer U.S. dollars; a weaker British pound compared to other currencies increases the cost of goods imported into our U.K. operations and may decrease the profitability of our U.K. operations; and a higher U.K. interest rate may have a dampening effect on the U.K. economy. In the longer term, any impact from Brexit on our U.K. operations will depend, in part, on the outcome of tariff, trade, regulatory and other negotiations.
If we fail to establish and maintain an effective system of internal control, we may not be able to report our financial results accurately or to prevent fraud. Any inability to report and file our financial results accurately and timely could harm our reputation and adversely impact the trading price of our common stock.
Effective internal control is necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, we may not be able to manage our business as effectively as we would if an effective control environment existed, and our business and reputation with investors may be harmed. As a result, our small size and any current internal control deficiencies may adversely affect our financial condition, results of operation and access to capital. We have not performed an in-depth analysis to determine if historical un-discovered failures of internal controls exist, and may in the future discover areas of our internal control that need improvement.
Public company compliance may make it more difficult to attract and retain officers and directors.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act and new rules subsequently implemented by the SEC have required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. As a public company, we expect these new rules and regulations to increase our compliance costs in 2017 and beyond and to make certain activities more time consuming and costly. As a public company, we also expect that these new rules and regulations may make it more difficult and expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance in the future and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our Board of Directors or as executive officers.
The ability of our Board of Directors to issue additional stock may prevent or make more difficult certain transactions, including a sale or merger of the Company.
Our Board of Directors is authorized to issue up to 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock with powers, rights and preferences designated by it. See “Preferred Stock” in the section of this prospectus titled “Description of Securities.” Shares of voting or convertible preferred stock could be issued, or rights to purchase such shares could be issued, to create voting impediments or to frustrate persons seeking to effect a takeover or otherwise gain control of the Company. The ability of the Board of Directors to issue such additional shares of preferred stock, with rights and preferences it deems advisable, could discourage an attempt by a party to acquire control of the Company by tender offer or other means. Such issuances could therefore deprive stockholders of benefits that could result from such an attempt, such as the realization of a premium over the market price for their shares in a tender offer or the temporary increase in market price that such an attempt could cause. Moreover, the issuance of such additional shares of preferred stock to persons friendly to the Board of Directors could make it more difficult to remove incumbent officers and directors from office even if such change were to be favorable to stockholders generally.
15 |
Our stock may be traded infrequently and in low volumes, so you may be unable to sell your shares at or near the quoted bid prices if you need to sell your shares.
While we will apply to list our common stock on [The NASDAQ Capital Market], and the closing of this offering is contingent on such listing, our common stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB marketplace. If we fail to maintain the listing of our common stock on [The NASDAQ Capital Market], we expect our common stock to remain eligible for quotation on the OTC Markets, or on another over-the-counter quotation system, or in the “pink sheets.” In those venues, however, the shares of our common stock may trade infrequently and in low volumes, meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our common shares at or near bid prices at any given time may be relatively small or non-existent. An investor may find it difficult to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our common stock or to sell his or her shares at or near bid prices or at all. In addition, if we fail to meet the criteria set forth in SEC regulations, various requirements would be imposed by law on broker-dealers who sell our securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. Consequently, such regulations may deter broker-dealers from recommending or selling our common stock, which may further affect the liquidity of our common stock. This would also make it more difficult for us to raise capital.
There currently is no active public market for our common stock and there can be no assurance that an active public market will ever develop. Failure to develop or maintain a trading market could negatively affect the value of our common stock and make it difficult or impossible for you to sell your shares.
There is currently no active public market for shares of our common stock and one may never develop. Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Markets. The OTC Markets is a thinly traded market and lacks the liquidity of certain other public markets with which some investors may have more experience. We may not ever be able to satisfy the listing requirements for our common stock to be listed on a national securities exchange, which is often a more widely-traded and liquid market. Some, but not all, of the factors which may delay or prevent the listing of our common stock on a more widely-traded and liquid market include the following: our stockholders’ equity may be insufficient; the market value of our outstanding securities may be too low; our net income from operations may be too low; our common stock may not be sufficiently widely held; we may not be able to secure market makers for our common stock; and we may fail to meet the rules and requirements mandated by the several exchanges and markets to have our common stock listed. Should we fail to satisfy the initial listing standards of the national exchanges, or our common stock is otherwise rejected for listing, and remains listed on the OTC Markets or is suspended from the OTC Markets, the trading price of our common stock could suffer and the trading market for our common stock may be less liquid and our common stock price may be subject to increased volatility, making it difficult or impossible to sell shares of our common stock.
Unless our common stock is listed on [The NASDAQ Capital Market] or other national securities exchange, our common stock will continue to be subject to the “penny stock” rules of the SEC and the trading market in the securities will be limited, which makes transactions in the stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in the stock.
We will apply for the listing of our common stock on [The NASDAQ Capital Market] and the closing of this offering is contingent upon such listing. Until such time as our common stock is listed on [The NASDAQ Capital Market] or if we fail to maintain our listing on such market or other national securities exchange, our common stock will be subject to the “penny stock” rules adopted under Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act. Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act 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: (a) that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks; and (b) the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity 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: (a) obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person and (b) 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.
16 |
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form: (a) sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and (b) confirms 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 common 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 or 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.
Our stock price may be volatile.
The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the following:
● | changes in our industry; | |
● | competitive pricing pressures; | |
● | our ability to obtain working capital financing; | |
● | additions or departures of key personnel; | |
● | conversions from preferred stock to common stock; | |
● | sales of our common and preferred stock; | |
● | our ability to execute our business plan; | |
● | operating results that fall below expectations; | |
● | loss of any strategic relationship; | |
● | regulatory developments; and | |
● | economic and other external factors. |
In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Offers or availability for sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock may cause the price of our common stock to decline.
If our stockholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, including upon the expiration of any statutory holding period under Rule 144, or issued upon the conversion of preferred stock or exercise of warrants, it could create a circumstance commonly referred to as an “overhang” and in anticipation of which the market price of our common stock could fall. The existence of an overhang, whether or not sales have occurred or are occurring, also could make more difficult our ability to raise additional financing through the sale of equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate.
Investor relations activities, nominal “float” and supply and demand factors may affect the price of our stock.
The Company expects to utilize various techniques such as non-deal road shows and investor relations campaigns in order to create investor awareness for the Company. These campaigns may include personal, video and telephone conferences with investors and prospective investors in which our business practices are described. The Company may provide compensation to investor relations firms and pay for newsletters, websites, mailings and email campaigns that are produced by third-parties based upon publicly-available information concerning the Company. The Company does not intend to review or approve the content of such analysts’ reports or other materials based upon analysts’ own research or methods. Investor relations firms should generally disclose when they are compensated for their efforts, but whether such disclosure is made or complete is not under our control.
Until such time as our restricted shares are registered or available for resale under Rule 144, there will continue to be a small percentage of shares held by a small number of investors, many of whom acquired such shares in privately negotiated purchase and sale transactions, which will constitute the entire available trading market. Since a small percentage of the outstanding common stock of the Company will initially be available for trading, held by a small number of individuals or entities, the supply of our common stock for sale will be extremely limited for an indeterminate amount of time, which could result in higher bids, asks or sales prices than would otherwise exist. Securities regulators have often cited factors such as thinly-traded markets, small numbers of holders, and awareness campaigns as hallmarks of claims of price manipulation and other violations of law when combined with manipulative trading, such as wash sales, matched orders or other manipulative trading timed to coincide with false or touting press releases. There can be no assurance that the Company’s or third-parties’ activities, or the small number of potential sellers or small percentage of stock in the “float,” or determinations by purchasers or holders as to when or under what circumstances or at what prices they may be willing to buy or sell stock will not artificially impact (or would be claimed by regulators to have affected) the normal supply and demand factors that determine the price of the stock.
Risks Related to the Offering
You will experience immediate and substantial dilution.
Since the public offering price of the securities offered pursuant to this prospectus is higher than the net tangible book value per share of our common stock, you will suffer immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value of the common stock you purchase in this offering. See “Dilution” in this prospectus for a more detailed discussion of the dilution you will incur if you purchase securities in this offering. Assuming a public offering price of $ per share, the last reported sale price of our common stock on the OTCQB on , 2017, purchasers of common stock in this offering will experience immediate dilution of $ per share in net tangible book value of our common stock. See “Dilution” in this prospectus for a more detailed discussion of the dilution you will incur if you purchase securities in this offering.
In addition, we may have issued options, warrants or other derivative securities to acquire common stock at prices below the expected public offering price of the shares of common stock offered hereby. To the extent outstanding options, warrants or other derivative securities are ultimately exercised or converted, or if we issue restricted stock to our employees under our equity incentive plans, there will be further dilution to investors who purchase our securities in this offering. In addition, if we issue additional equity securities or derivative securities, investors purchasing our securities in this offering will experience additional dilution.

Management will have broad discretion as to the use of the net proceeds from this offering, and we may not use these proceeds in ways that increase the value of your investment.
Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering including for any of the purposes described in the section entitled “Use of Proceeds,” and could spend the proceeds in ways that do not improve our results of operations or enhance the value of our common stock. Accordingly, you will be relying on the judgment of our management with regard to the use of these net proceeds, and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used appropriately. Our failure to apply these funds effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, delay the development of our product candidates and cause the price of our common stock to decline.

As of June 30, 2017, our net tangible book value was approximately $2,420,308, or $0.03 per share of common stock.

After giving effect to the sale and issuance of shares of our common stock in this offering at an assumed public offering price of $ per share, the last reported sale price of our common stock on the OTCQB on , 2017, and after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses, our as adjusted net tangible book value as of June 30, 2017 would have been approximately $ , or $ per share. This represents an immediate increase in as adjusted net tangible book value of $ per share to our existing stockholders, and an immediate dilution of $ per share to investors purchasing shares in this offering.
The following table illustrates the per share dilution to investors purchasing shares in the offering:
Assumed public offering price per share | $ | $ | ||||||
Pro forma net tangible book value per share as of June 30, 2017 | $ | 0.03 | $ | |||||

Pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value per share after this offering | $ | $ | ||||||
Dilution in pro forma net tangible book value per share to new investors | $ | $ |
If the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares in full, our as adjusted net tangible book value per share after this offering would be $ per share, and the dilution in net tangible book value per share to new investors in this offering would be $ per share.

MANAGEMENT’S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our financial statements and accompanying notes appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. This Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Please see “Forward-Looking Statements” set forth in the beginning of this Prospectus, and see “Risk Factors” beginning on page 10 for a discussion of certain risk factors applicable to our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Operating results are not necessarily indicative of results that may occur in future periods.
Orbital Tracking Corp.
Overview
On January 22, 2015, the Company changed its name to “Orbital Tracking Corp.” from “Great West Resources, Inc.” pursuant to a merger with a newly-formed wholly owned subsidiary.
On March 28, 2014, the Company merged with a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company solely for the purpose of changing its state of incorporation to Nevada from Delaware, effecting a 1:150 reverse split of its common stock, and changing its name to Great West Resources, Inc. in connection with the plans to enter into the business of potash mining and exploration. During late 2014, the Company abandoned its efforts to enter the potash business.
The Company was originally incorporated in 1997 as a Florida corporation. On April 21, 2010, the Company merged with and into a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary for the purpose of changing its state of incorporation to Delaware, effecting a 2:1 forward split of its common stock, and changing its name to EClips Media Technologies, Inc. On April 25, 2011, the Company changed its name to “Silver Horn Mining Ltd.” pursuant to a merger with a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary.
GTCL was formed under the laws of England and Wales in 2008. On February 19, 2015, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with GTCL and all of the holders of the outstanding equity of GTCL pursuant to which GTCL became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
For accounting purposes, this transaction is being accounted for as a reverse acquisition and has been treated as a recapitalization of Orbital Tracking Corp. with GTCL considered the accounting acquirer, and the financial statements of the accounting acquirer became the financial statements of the registrant. The completion of the share exchange resulted in a change of control. The share exchange was accounted for as a reverse acquisition and re-capitalization. The GTCL Shareholders obtained approximately 39% of voting control on the date of share exchange. GTCL was the acquirer for financial reporting purposes and the Orbital Tracking Corp. was the acquired company. The consolidated financial statements after the acquisition include the balance sheets of both companies at historical cost, the historical results of GTCL and the results of the Company from the acquisition date. All share and per share information in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and footnotes has been retroactively restated to reflect the recapitalization.
We are a provider of satellite based hardware, airtime and related services both in the United States and internationally. We sell equipment and airtime for use on all of the major satellite networks including Globalstar, Inmarsat, Iridium and Thuraya and operate a short-term rental service for customers who desire to use our equipment for a limited time period. Our acquisition of GTCL in February 2015 expanded our global satellite based infrastructure and business, which was first launched in December 2014 through the purchase of certain contracts.

We had net cash used in operations of approximately $1,044,039 during the year ended December 31, 2016. At December 31, 2016, we had a working capital of approximately $81,490. Additionally, at December 31, 2016, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $4,601,406 and stockholder’s equity of $2,309,828. These matters and our expected needs for capital investments required to support operational growth raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible effects on recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from our inability to continue as a going concern.
At June 30, 2017, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $7,961,679 working capital of approximately $322,092 and net loss of approximately $3,360,273 during the six months ended June 30, 2017. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining additional capital and financing. Management intends to attempt to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s applications of accounting policies. Critical accounting policies for our company include accounting for derivative liabilities and stock based compensation.
Stock Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the consolidated condensed financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.
30 |
Pursuant to ASC Topic 505-50, for share-based payments to consultants and other third parties, compensation expense is determined at the “measurement date.” The expense is recognized over the vesting period of the award. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. The Company initially records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date.
Use of Estimates
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the statements of financial condition, and revenues and expenses for the years then ended. Actual results may differ significantly from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to, the assumptions used to calculate stock-based compensation, derivative liabilities, preferred deemed dividend and common stock issued for services.
Effect of Exchange Rate on Results
The Company’s reporting currency is US Dollars. The accounts of one of the Company’s subsidiaries, GTCL, is maintained using the appropriate local currency, Great British Pound, as the functional currency. All assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. Dollars at balance sheet date, shareholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and revenue and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rate for the year or the reporting period. The translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, captioned as accumulated other comprehensive (loss) gain. Transaction gains and losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the statements of operations.
The relevant translation rates are as follows: for the year ended December 31, 2016 closing rate at 1.2345 US$: GBP, average rate at 1.35585 US$: GBP and for the year ended 2015 closing rate at 1.47373 US$: GBP, average rate at 1.52855 US$: GBP.
Global Telesat Communications LTD, (GTCL) represents 70.8% of total company sales and as such, currency rate variances have an impact on results. For the year ended December 31, 2016 the net effect on revenues were impacted by the differences in exchange rate from yearly average exchange of 1.52855 to 1.35585. Had the yearly average rate remained, sales would have been higher by $434,000. GTCL comparable sales in GBP, its home currency, increased 38.9% or £705,683, from £1,811,909 to £2,517,592 for the year ended December 31, 2016 as compared to December 31, 2015.
Results of Operations for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015
Net Revenue. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, revenues generated were approximately $4,698,638 and $3,950,601, an increase of $748,037 or 18.9%. Revenues were derived primarily from the sales of satellite phones, satellite tracking devices accessories and airtime plans. Comparable sales for Orbital Satcom Corp. increased 7.6% or $132,782, from $1,181,008 to $1,270,393. Comparable sales for Global Telesat Communications LTD increased 21.6% or $1,189,946, from $2,769,594 to $3,326,855. The sales increase is attributable to additional product lines being introduced by the company and resources associated from equity funding, which occurred in December of 2015, and enabled the Company to add additional marketplaces for its online presence, offset by exchange rate variances as described above.

Global Telesat Communications LTD, (GTCL) represents 70.6% of total company sales for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and as such, currency rate variances have an impact on results. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 the net effect on revenues were impacted by the differences in exchange rate from quarterly average exchange of 1.43414 to 1.25801. Had the yearly average rate remained, sales for the six months would have been higher by $290,606. GTCL comparable sales in GBP, its home currency, increased 31.3% or £412,574, from £1,237,379 to £1,649,954, for the six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to June 30, 2016.
Cost of Sales. During the three months ended June 30, 2017, cost of revenues increased to $1,272,551 compared to $1,004,891 for the three months ended June 30, 2016, an increase of $267,660 or 26.6%. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, cost of revenues increased to $2,344,325 compared to $1,892,323 for the three months ended June 30, 2016, an increase of $452,002 or 23.9%.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, gross profit margins were 20.2% as compared to 23.8%. We expect our cost of revenues to continue to increase during fiscal 2017 and beyond, as we expand our operations and begin generating additional revenues under our current business. However, we are unable at this time to estimate the amount of the expected increases. Gross margins reacted negatively with the devaluation of GBP against US$ following the BREXIT vote and in order to remain competitive we had to maintain product pricing. In addition, we attracted new reseller customers who buy in larger quantities at lower margins.
Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2017 were $1,119,925, an increase of $337,070, or 43.1%, from total operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2016 of $782,855. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 total operating expenses were $1,652,023, as compared to $1,494,363, for the same period in 2016, an increase of $157,660 or 10.6%.

For the six months ended June 30, 2017, selling, general and administrative expenses were $298,616 as compared to $314,887, a decrease of $16,271 or 5.2%. The decrease for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, was due to lower exchange rates in the current period offset by variable expenses which increase as revenue increases.
Salaries, wages and payroll taxes were $181,870 and $170,981, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, an increase of $10,889, or 6.4%. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, salaries, wages and payroll taxes were $334,594 as compared to $344,836, a decrease of $10,242, or 3.0%, for the same period in the prior year. For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the increase is attributable to an increase in compensation as a result of additional employees, offset by the decrease in the exchange rate. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the decrease is related to changes in personnel from the prior year.
Stock based compensation was $600,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to $0 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. On May 26, 2017, the Company issued 5,000,000 options to Mr. Phipps, 3,750,000 options to Theresa Carlise and 20,000,000 options to certain employees of the Company. The employees are the adult children of our Chief Executive Officer. All of the options are fully vested and have an exercise price of $0.01 per share and a term of 10 years.
Professional fees were $119,809 and $387,916 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, a decrease of $268,107, or 69.1%. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, professional fees were $268,655 as compared to $688,484, a decrease of $419,829 or 61.0% from the six months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease was primarily attributable to the Company’s decrease of investor relation fees from the same period in the prior year.
Depreciation and amortization expenses were $74,086 and $63,334 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, an increase of $10,752 or 17.0%. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 depreciation and amortization expenses were $150,158 as compared to $146,156, an increase of $4,002, or 2.7% from the same period in the prior year. For the three and six months, the increase in depreciation is proportionately related to an increased in website development, which has a shorter useful life and an increase in computer equipment, respectively.
We expect our expenses in each of these areas to continue to increase during fiscal 2017 and beyond as we expand our operations and begin generating additional revenues under our current business. However, we are unable at this time to estimate the amount of the expected increases.

Effect of Exchange Rate on Results
The Company’s reporting currency is US Dollars. The accounts of one of the Company’s subsidiaries, GTCL, is maintained using the appropriate local currency, Great British Pound, as the functional currency. All assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. Dollars at balance sheet date, shareholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and revenue and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rate for the year or the reporting period. The translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, captioned as accumulated other comprehensive (loss) gain. Transaction gains and losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the statements of operations.
The relevant translation rates are as follows: for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 closing rate at 1.30240 US$: GBP, average rate at 1.27779 US$: GBP and 1.25801 US$: GBP. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 closing rate at 1.3311 US$: GBP, average rate at 1.43544 US$: GBP and 1.43414 US$: GBP and for the year ended 2016 closing rate at 1.2345 US$: GBP, average rate at 1.35585 US$ GBP.

Our Current Business
The Company is a distributor, developer and reseller of satellite enabled communications hardware and provides products, airtime and related services to customers located both in the United States and internationally through its subsidiaries, US based Orbital Satcom and UK based GTCL. We sell equipment and airtime for use on all major satellite networks including Globalstar, Inmarsat, Iridium and Thuraya. We specialize in offering a range of satellite enabled personal and asset tracking products and provide an advanced mapping portal for customers using our range of GSM and satellite based GPS tracking devices. Additionally, we operate a short-term rental service for customers who require use of our equipment for a limited time without the up-front expense of purchasing hardware.
Our acquisition of GTCL in February 2015 expanded our global satellite based infrastructure and business, which was first launched in December 2014 through the purchase of certain contracts which entitle us to transmit GPS tracking coordinates and other information at preferential rates through one of the world’s largest commercial satellite networks.
We now have a physical or storefront presence in more than 10 countries, and have in excess of 20,000 customers located in almost 80 countries across every continent in the world. Our customers include businesses, U.S. and foreign governments, non-governmental and charitable organizations, military users and private individuals located all over the world.
MSS Products
Through GTCL, we believe we are one of the leading providers in Europe of Mobile Satellite Solutions (MSS) including satellite trackers, satellite phones, mobile broadband Wi-Fi hotspots and terminals. By enabling wireless communications in areas not served or underserved by terrestrial wireless networks, or in circumstances where terrestrial networks are not operational due to natural or man-made disasters, we seek to meet our customers’ increasing desire for connectivity anywhere in the world.
Our MSS products rely on satellite networks for voice, data and tracking connectivity and thus are not reliant on cell towers or other local infrastructure. As a result, our MSS solutions are suitable for recreational travelers and adventurers, government and military users, and corporations and individuals wishing to communicate from remote locations, or in the event of an emergency such as a power outage, hurricane or other natural disaster during which regular cell phone, telephone and internet service may not be available. We purchase these products directly from the manufacturers or distribution partners and sell them directly to end users and a growing base of resellers that we have around the world.
Our principal focus is on growing our existing satellite based hardware, airtime and related services, specifically services attracting recurring revenue for the Company. Additionally, we are developing our own dual mode tracking device for use by retail, corporate and governmental customers worldwide which we hope will further increase future revenue.
Satellite Communications Services
As a result of the purchase of contracts and assets from Global Telesat Corp. (“GTC”) in December 2014, we commenced providing satellite communications services globally via satellite over Globalstar’s satellite based simplex data network. We provide this service through our Orbital Satcom and GTC subsidiaries. Our rights under the purchased contracts allow us to have preferred pricing arrangements with Globalstar for each account used during the term of contracts. We then offer our customers a range of prepaid and monthly fee satellite communications airtime options.
The simplex service is a one-way burst data transmission from a commercial simplex device over the Globalstar network that can be used to track and monitor assets. We can use each simplex or one-way transmission account to transmit an unlimited number of locational or status messages from tracking devices used anywhere within the Globalstar simplex coverage area. At the heart of the simplex service is a demodulator and RF interface, called an applique, which is located at a Globalstar gateway. The gateways equipped with appliques, many of which are owned by us, provide coverage for simplex tracking devices over vast areas of the globe. The applique receives and collates messages from all simplex devices transmitting over the Globalstar network. Simplex devices consist of a telemetry unit, an application specific sensor, a battery and optional global positioning functionality. The small size of the devices makes them attractive for use in tracking asset shipments, monitoring unattended remote assets, trailer tracking and mobile security together with lone worker or recreational user safety.
35 |
Aside from providing services over Globalstar’s simplex data network, we are, through GTCL and Orbital Satcom, an authorized reseller of Globalstar’s two-way voice and data transmissions service, called the duplex service, and simplex and duplex satellite telecommunications services offered by other leading networks such as Iridium, Inmarsat and Thuraya. We offer a range of pay-as-you-go and monthly fee satellite communications airtime options from these network providers. We typically pay the network providers a monthly access fee per subscriber, as well as usage fees for airtime minutes used by our subscribers. This is a rapidly growing market and we believe we are well positioned to take advantage of this growth. Our customers are in industries such as maritime, aviation, government/military, emergency/humanitarian services, mining, forestry, oil and gas, heavy equipment, transportation and utilities as well as recreational users. We are focused on growing and diversifying our customer base, increasing our product range and making maximum use of our preferred pricing arrangements with Globalstar and other networks to generate increased revenue.
Online Storefronts
We operate two mobile friendly e-commerce websites through our Orbital Satcom and GTCL subsidiaries which offer a range of MSS products and solutions. These websites produce sales and attract enquiries from customers and potential customers from all around the world. Over the long term and as funding permits, we plan to develop additional country-specific websites or offer translation options on our existing websites to target customers in South America, Asia and Europe where we anticipate there will be substantial further demand for our products.
In addition to our two main e-commerce websites, we make portable satellite voice, data and tracking solutions easier to find and buy online through our various third party e-commerce storefronts offered by Amazon, eBay, Sears and Walmart. We currently have storefronts in the UK, US, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Mexico, Japan and Canada. We have invested in personnel to translate our listings correctly in the different countries we are represented in and are regularly improving and increasing our listings on all Amazon sites. We currently have more than 1,000 product listings on all third party sites and invest in inventory to hold at Amazon’s various warehouses around the world to ensure that orders are shipped and received by customers as quickly as possible. The products include handheld satellite phones, personal and asset tracking devices, portable high speed broadband terminals, and satellite Wi-Fi hotspots.
Mapping and Tracking Portal
Our advanced mapping and tracking portals, www.orbitaltrack.com offered by Orbital Satcom, and www.gtctrack.com offered by GTCL, are available for use by registered customers who pay a monthly subscription to access them. OrbitalTrack and GTCTrack display real-time worldwide asset location reports including position, speed, altitude and heading and also provides past location and movement history reports on a wide range of tracking devices. These mapping portals are available to all of our customers to monitor their assets and we intend to aggressively pursue new customers for this application.
Proprietary Satellite Tracking Products
We are currently developing our first own brand global tracking product, a dual-mode asset tracker, of which we hope to make available in the marketplace in early 2018 following final testing and receipt of necessary regulatory and compatibility certifications. The Company’s dual-mode asset tracker is designed to address the current technical and service cost challenges facing the global Asset Management Systems market, The first product designed and developed by the Company, the dual-mode tracker utilizes both cellular and satellite technology to provide truly global tracking, automatically switching between the cellular and satellite links making it an ideal solution for use in both populated and remote areas, including trans-oceanic routes. For commercial users in transportation, shipping, logistics, fleet management and construction, it features detailing reporting alerts, status and GPS location data allowing cargo and vehicles to be tracked nearly anywhere in the world while lowering operating costs by utilizing cellular when available and satellite in remote areas, optimizing roaming charges and delivering significant cost savings, by easily locating lost or stolen assets.
We anticipate that we will be able to finalize development and certification of the new dual-mode tracker for approximately $50,000 to $75,000 and believe there is strong customer demand based on existing customer requests.
We also intend to develop additional personal and asset tracking products suitable for government and recreational users. Users of these devices will be able to see the location and movements of their devices through our OrbitalTrack or GTCTrack portals. Anticipated costs for completion are approximately $75,000 to $100,000. These products may operate on the Iridium, Inmarsat, Globalstar or Thuraya satellite networks.

Industry and Market
We compete in the mobile satellite products and services sector of the global communications industry. The products and airtime that we sell, are intended to meet users’ needs for connectivity in all locations where existing terrestrial wireline and wireless communications networks do not exist, do not provide sufficient coverage, or are impaired. Government organizations, including military and intelligence agencies and disaster response agencies, non-governmental organizations and industrial operations and support teams depend on mobile voice and data satellite communications products and services on a regular basis. Businesses with global operations require reliable communications services when operating in remote locations around the world. Mobile satellite services users span many sectors, including emergency services, maritime, aviation, government, utilities, oil and gas, mining, recreation, forestry, heavy equipment, construction, and transportation, among others. Many of our customers, such as lone workers, sailors, adventurers, and those travelling in remote locations with no other form of contact, view satellite communications products and services as critical to their daily operations.
There is an existing, and we believe significantly growing, multi-billion dollar global market for a small and cost effective solution for receiving and processing mobile voice and data communications from remote locations used in applications such as tracking vehicles or asset shipments, monitoring unattended remote assets or mobile security. Over the past two decades, the global mobile satellite services market has experienced significant growth. Increasingly, better-tailored, improved-technology products and services are creating new channels of demand for mobile satellite services. Growth in demand for mobile satellite voice services is driven by the declining cost of these services, the diminishing size and lower costs of the devices, as well as heightened demand by governments, businesses and individuals for ubiquitous global voice and data coverage. We believe our solutions are ideally suited for industries such as maritime, aviation, government/military, emergency/humanitarian services, mining, forestry, oil and gas, heavy equipment, transportation and utilities, as well as recreational users. We do not tailor our products and services to different types of customers as in our experience military, non-profit, government and recreational users tend to purchase the same types of products and services.
Competition
The competitors for our satellite telecommunications services and products are other leading satellite networks such as Iridium, Inmarsat, Thuraya and Globalstar, and their various resellers, some of which are also our suppliers. We expect the competition for our satellite telecommunications services and our satellite tracking and monitoring services to increase significantly as the market demand accelerates. We believe that we will be well positioned to compete for the satellite telecommunications services business largely on a cost basis and due to our global presence with various websites and Amazon storefronts. We believe that we will be able to charge our customers lower prices for satellite airtime than our competitors due to the preferential pricing we have with Globalstar due to the Globalstar agreements. We believe that we will be able to compete in the MSS market due to our competitive pricing, varied products and easy to use website and Amazon storefront.
Intellectual Property
Our success and ability to compete depends in part on our ability to maintain our trade secrets. All of our employees and consultants are subject to non-disclosure agreements and other contractual provisions to establish and maintain our proprietary rights. In connection with the purchase of the contracts from GTC and related agreements, GTC and its parent World Surveillance Group, Inc. agreed to keep confidential certain information. In February 2015 we purchased certain software, including source code and executable code, and electronic files required for the development of dual mode trackers. On October 13, 2015, we purchased appliques, which are demodulator and RF interfaces located at various ground stations for gateways.

Research and Development
On February 19, 2015, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock, at $0.05 per share, or $50,000, to a consultant as compensation for the design and delivery of dual mode GSM/Globalstar Simplex tracking devices and related hardware and intellectual property. We spent $0 and $50,000, respectively, in the fiscal years ending December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 on research and development.
Regulatory Matters
Government contract laws and regulations affect how we will do business with our customers, and in some instances, will impose added costs on our business. A violation of specific laws and regulations could result in the imposition of fines and penalties, the termination of any then existing contracts or the inability to bid on future contracts. We intend our Orbital Sub to become qualified as a government contractor.
Sources and Availability of Components
Certain materials and equipment for our products are custom made for those products and are dependent upon either a single or limited number of suppliers. Failure of a supplier could cause delays in delivery of the products if another supplier cannot promptly be found or if the quality of such replacement supplier’s components are inferior or unacceptable.
Employees
We currently have 8 full time and 2 part time employee, not including David Phipps, our Chief Executive Officer and President, and Theresa Carlise, our Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Phipps and Ms. Carlise work for us full time.
Properties
We rent our office space at 18851 N.E. 29th Ave, Suite 700, Aventura, Florida 33180 for $175 per month and our facilities in Poole, England for £1,833 per month, or $2,342 per month at the yearly average conversation rate of 1.27779.
Legal Proceedings
We anticipate that we will from time to time become subject to claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. It is not feasible to predict the outcome of any such proceedings and we cannot assure that their ultimate disposition will not have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, cash flows or results of operations. The Company is not currently a party to any material pending legal proceedings, nor is the Company aware of any civil proceeding or government authority contemplating any legal proceeding as of the date of this filing.

Corporate History
On January 22, 2015, the Company changed its name to “Orbital Tracking Corp.” from “Great West Resources, Inc.” pursuant to a merger with a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary.
On March 28, 2014, the Company merged with a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company solely for the purpose of changing its state of incorporation to Nevada from Delaware, effecting a 1:150 reverse split of its common stock, and changing its name to Great West Resources, Inc. in connection with the plans to enter into the business of potash mining and exploration. During late 2014, the Company abandoned its efforts to enter the potash business.
The Company was originally incorporated in 1997 as a Florida corporation. On April 21, 2010, the Company merged with and into a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary for the purpose of changing its state of incorporation to Delaware, effecting a 2:1 forward split of its common stock, and changing its name to EClips Media Technologies, Inc. On April 25, 2011, the Company changed its name to “Silver Horn Mining Ltd.” pursuant to a merger with a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary.
GTCL was formed under the laws of England and Wales in 2008. On February 19, 2015, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with GTCL and all of the holders of the outstanding equity of GTCL pursuant to which GTCL became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
For accounting purposes, this transaction is being accounted for as a reverse acquisition and has been treated as a recapitalization of Orbital Tracking Corp. with GTCL considered the accounting acquirer, and the financial statements of the accounting acquirer became the financial statements of the registrant. The completion of the share exchange resulted in a change of control. The share exchange was accounted for as a reverse acquisition and re-capitalization. The GTCL Shareholders obtained approximately 39% of voting control on the date of share exchange. GTCL was the acquirer for financial reporting purposes and the Orbital Tracking Corp. was the acquired company. The consolidated financial statements after the acquisition include the balance sheets of both companies at historical cost, the historical results of GTCL and the results of the Company from the acquisition date. All share and per share information in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and footnotes has been retroactively restated to reflect the recapitalization.

Committees of the Board of Directors
Audit Committee. We intend to establish an audit committee of the Board of Directors once we have satisfied the other initial listing standards for listing our common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market or another national exchange. The audit committee will consist of independent directors, of which at least one director will qualify as a qualified financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K. The audit committee’s duties will be to recommend to our Board of Directors the engagement of independent auditors to audit our financial statements and to review our accounting and auditing principles. The audit committee will review the scope, timing and fees for the annual audit and the results of audit examinations performed by the internal auditors and independent public accountants, including their recommendations to improve the system of accounting and internal controls. The audit committee will at all times be composed exclusively of directors who are, in the opinion of our Board of Directors, free from any relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment as a committee member and who possess an understanding of financial statements and generally accepted accounting principles.
Compensation Committee. We intend to establish a compensation committee of the Board of Directors once we have satisfied the other initial listing standards for listing our common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market or another national exchange. The compensation committee will review and approve our salary and benefits policies, including compensation of executive officers. The compensation committee will also administer our stock option plans and recommend and approve grants of stock options under such plans.
Nominating Committee. We intend to establish a nominating committee of the Board of Directors once we have satisfied the other initial listing standards for listing our common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market or another national exchange. The nominating committee will consider and make recommendations on matters related to the practices, policies and procedures of the Board and take a leadership role in shaping our corporate governance. As part of its duties, the nominating committee would assess the size, structure and composition of the Board and its committees, and coordinate the evaluation of Board performance.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight
Our Board of Directors is primarily responsible for overseeing our risk management processes on behalf of the Company. The Board of Directors receives and reviews periodic reports from management, auditors, legal counsel, and others, as considered appropriate regarding our Company’s assessment of risks. The Board of Directors focuses on the most significant risks facing our Company and our Company’s general risk management strategy, and also ensures that risks undertaken by our Company are consistent with the Board’s appetite for risk. While the Board oversees our Company’s risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing our Company and that our Board leadership structure supports this approach.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Based solely on our review of copies of such reports and representations from our executive officers and directors, we believe that our executive officers and directors complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements during the year ended December 31, 2016.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Neither our articles of incorporation nor bylaws prevent us from indemnifying our officers, directors and agents to the extent permitted under the Nevada Revised Statutes (“NRS”). NRS Section 78.7502, provides that a corporation may indemnify any director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation against expenses, including fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with any defense to the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to Section 78.7502(1) or 78.7502(2), or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein.
NRS 78.7502(1) provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, except an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses, including fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he: (a) is not liable pursuant to NRS 78.138; or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
NRS Section 78.7502(2) provides that a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses, including amounts paid in settlement and fees actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if he: (a) is not liable pursuant to NRS 78.138; or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. Indemnification may not be made for any claim, issue or matter as to which such a person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals there from, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.
59 |
NRS Section 78.747 provides that except as otherwise provided by specific statute, no director or officer of a corporation is individually liable for a debt or liability of the corporation, unless the director or officer acts as the alter ego of the corporation. The court as a matter of law must determine the question of whether a director or officer acts as the alter ego of a corporation.
Our charter provides that we will indemnify our directors, officers, employees and agents to the extent and in the manner permitted by the provisions of the NRS, as amended from time to time, subject to any permissible expansion or limitation of such indemnification, as may be set forth in any stockholders’ or directors’ resolution or by contract. Any repeal or modification of these provisions approved by our stockholders will be prospective only and will not adversely affect any limitation on the liability of any of our directors or officers existing as of the time of such repeal or modification. We are also permitted to apply for insurance on behalf of any director, officer, employee or other agent for liability arising out of his actions, whether or not the NRS would permit indemnification.
Our bylaws provide that a director or officer of the Company shall have no personal liability to the Company or its stockholders for damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except for damages for breach of fiduciary duty resulting from (a) acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud, or a knowing violation of law, or (b) the payment of dividends in violation of section 78.3900 of the NRS as it may from time to time be amended or any successor provision thereto.

The underwriters are obligated to take and pay for all of the common shares offered by this prospectus if any such shares are taken. However, the underwriters are not required to take or pay for the shares covered by the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares described below.
We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make in respect thereof.
Option to Purchase Additional Shares
We have granted to the underwriters an option, exercisable for 45 days from the date of this prospectus, to purchase up to additional common shares at the public offering price listed on the cover page of this prospectus, less underwriting discounts and commissions. To the extent the option is exercised, each underwriter will become obligated, subject to certain conditions, to purchase about the same percentage of the additional common shares as the number listed next to the underwriter’s name in the preceding table bears to the total number of common shares listed next to the names of all underwriters in the preceding table.
Discounts and Commissions
The underwriters will initially offer the shares to be sold in this offering directly to the public at the public offering price set forth on the cover of this prospectus and to selected dealers at the public offering price less a selling concession not in excess of $ per share. After the offering, the underwriters may change the offering price and other selling terms. No change in those terms will change the amount of proceeds to be received by us as set forth on the cover of this prospectus.

Representative’s Warrants
We have agreed to issue warrants to the representative to purchase a number of shares of common stock equal to 8% of the total number of shares sold in this offering at an exercise price equal to 110% of the public offering price of the shares sold in this offering. These warrants will be exercisable upon issuance, will have a cashless exercise provision and will terminate on the fifth anniversary of the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. The warrants also provide for customary anti-dilution provisions and “piggyback” registration rights with respect to the registration of the shares of common stock underlying the warrants for a period of two years from the date of this prospectus.
The warrants and the underlying shares may be deemed compensation by FINRA, and therefore will be subject to FINRA Rule 5110(g)(1). In accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(1), neither the underwriter warrants nor any of our shares issued upon exercise of the underwriter warrants may be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, or be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of such securities by any person, for a period of 180 days immediately following the date of effectiveness or commencement of sales of the offering pursuant to which the underwriter warrants are being issued, subject to certain exceptions.
Board Observer
For a period of three years after the date of this prospectus, the representative will have the right to appoint an observer to attend meetings of our Board, subject to certain limitations. We will reimburse this person for his or her reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in attending any meeting, and will pay to him or her the same fees or other compensation paid to our non-employee directors for attendance.
Termination Fee
In the event we do not complete this offering and enter into discussions regarding a letter of intent or similar agreement, or effect a private and/or public offering of securities, with a broker-dealer or any other person, prior to July 7, 2018, without the consent of the representative, we will be required to pay to the representative its accountable expenses incurred in connection with this offering plus a termination fee equal to $100,000. However, the termination fee will not be payable in the event we enter into a merger, stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock acquisition or other similar business combination and engage the representative as a financial advisor in connection with such transaction.
Pricing of the Offering
Our common stock has been quoted on the electronic marketplace operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc. The public offering price will be determined based on the trading of our shares on the electronic marketplace operated by the OTC Markets Group, Inc. as well as through negotiations between us and the representative. Among the factors considered in determining the public offering price of the shares, in addition to the prevailing market conditions, are our historical performance, estimates of our business potential and earnings prospects, an assessment of our management and the consideration of the above factors in relation to market valuation of companies in related businesses.
Listing
Our common stock is currently quoted on the electronic marketplace operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc. under the symbol “TRKK.” We intend to apply to list our common stock on The NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “ .” We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in listing the common stock; however, we will not complete this offering unless we are so listed.
No Sales of Similar Securities
We, our directors, executive officers and principal stockholders will enter into lock-up agreements with the representative prior to the commencement of this offering pursuant to which each of these persons or entities, for a period of 12 months from the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, agree not to: (1) offer, pledge, announce the intention to sell, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any common shares or any securities convertible into, exercisable or exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive common shares (including common shares which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by such person in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and securities which may be issued upon exercise of a stock option or warrant) whether now owned or hereafter acquired; (2) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the foregoing securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of common shares or such other securities, in cash or otherwise; (3) make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any common shares or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common shares; or (4) publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing.
Electronic Offer, Sale and Distribution of Shares
A prospectus in electronic format may be made available on the websites maintained by the underwriters or selling group members, if any, participating in this offering and the underwriters may distribute prospectuses electronically. The underwriters may agree to allocate a number of common shares to selling group members for sale to their online brokerage account holders. The common shares to be sold pursuant to Internet distributions will be allocated on the same basis as other allocations. Other than the prospectus in electronic format, the information on these websites is not part of, nor incorporated by reference into, this prospectus or the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, has not been approved or endorsed by us or the underwriters, and should not be relied upon by investors.
62 |
Price Stabilization, Short Positions and Penalty Bids
In connection with this offering, the underwriters may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of our common shares. Specifically, the underwriters may sell more shares than they are obligated to purchase under the underwriting agreement, creating a short position. A short sale is covered if the short position is no greater than the number of shares available for purchase by the underwriters under option to purchase additional shares. The underwriters can close out a covered short sale by exercising the option to purchase additional shares or purchasing shares in the open market. In determining the source of shares to close out a covered short sale, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the open market price of shares compared to the price available under the option to purchase additional shares. The underwriters may also sell shares in excess of the option to purchase additional shares, creating a naked short position. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the shares in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering.
The underwriters may also impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a particular underwriter or dealer repays selling concessions allowed to it for distributing our common shares in this offering because the underwriter repurchases those shares in stabilizing or short covering transactions.
Finally, the underwriters may bid for, and purchase, our common shares in market making transactions, including “passive” market making transactions as described below.
These activities may stabilize or maintain the market price of our common shares at a price that is higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the absence of these activities. The underwriters are not required to engage in these activities, and may discontinue any of these activities at any time without notice. These transactions may be effected in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.
Potential Conflicts of Interest
The underwriters and their affiliates may, from time to time, engage in transactions with and perform services for us in the ordinary course of their business for which they may receive customary fees and reimbursement of expenses. In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the underwriters and their affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own accounts and for the accounts of their customers and such investment and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of our Company. The underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or instruments and may at any time hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.
Selling Restrictions
Other than in the United States, no action has been taken by us or the underwriters that would permit a public offering of the securities offered by this prospectus in any jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required. The securities offered by this prospectus may not be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, nor may this prospectus or any other offering material or advertisements in connection with the offer and sale of any such securities be distributed or published in any jurisdiction, except under circumstances that will result in compliance with the applicable rules and regulations of that jurisdiction. Persons into whose possession this prospectus comes are advised to inform themselves about and to observe any restrictions relating to the offering and the distribution of this prospectus. This prospectus does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities offered by this prospectus in any jurisdiction in which such an offer or a solicitation is unlawful.
The underwriters are expected to make offers and sales both in and outside the United States through their respective selling agents. Any offers and sales in the United States will be conducted by broker-dealers registered with the SEC.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Orbital Tracking Corp
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Orbital Tracking Corp and subsidiaries (formerly known as Great West Resources, Inc.) (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2016. Orbital Tracking Corp’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, 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. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Orbital Tracking Corp and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2016, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered losses from operations, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2 of the financial statements. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
