ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below as well as the other information in this filing before deciding to invest in our company. Any of the risk factors described below could significantly and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known or that are currently considered to be immaterial may also materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. As a result, the trading price or value of our common stock could be materially adversely affected and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Summary Risk Factors

We face risks and uncertainties related to our business, many of which are beyond our control. In particular, risks associated with:

Risks Related to Our Business Operations:

We may require additional financing, and we may not be able to raise funds on favorable terms or at all.

We had a working capital deficit of $262,518 as of December 31, 2021. With our current cash on hand, expected revenues, and based on our current average monthly expenses, we don’t currently anticipate the need for additional funding in order to continue our operations at their current levels and to pay the costs associated with being a public company for the next 12 months. We may however require additional funding in the future to expand or complete acquisitions. In the event we require additional funding in the future, the most likely source of future funds presently available to us will be through the sale of equity capital. Any sale of share capital will result in dilution to existing stockholders. Furthermore, we may incur debt in the future, and may not have sufficient funds to repay our future indebtedness or may default on our future debts, jeopardizing our business viability.

We may not be able to borrow or raise additional capital in the future to meet our needs or to otherwise provide the capital necessary to expand our operations and business, which might result in the value of our common stock decreasing in value or becoming worthless. Additional financing may not be available to us on terms that are acceptable. Consequently, we may not be able to proceed with our intended business plans. Substantial additional funds will still be required if we are to reach our goals that are outlined in this Report. Obtaining additional financing contains risks, including:

Furthermore, in order to pay amounts owed in connection with lawsuits, settlements, and judgments rendered against us, we may be forced to liquidate assets and/or abandon certain of our business plans. If we are unable to pay such amounts, we may be forced to cease operations and/or seek bankruptcy protection.

Our operations may be adversely affected by global epidemics, pandemics and similar health issues. Our business may be materially and adversely disrupted by the present outbreak and worldwide spread of COVID-19, including measures that international, federal, state and local governments, agencies, law enforcement and/or health authorities implement to address it.

An epidemic, pandemic or similar serious public health issue, and the measures undertaken by governmental authorities to address it, could significantly disrupt or prevent us from operating our business in the ordinary course for an extended period, and thereby, and/or along with any associated economic and/or social instability or distress, have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements.

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the outbreak of COVID-19 as a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures. On March 13, 2020, the United States declared a national emergency concerning the outbreak, and several states and municipalities have declared public health emergencies. Along with these declarations, there have been extraordinary and wide-ranging actions taken by international, federal, state and local public health and governmental authorities to contain and combat the outbreak and spread of COVID-19 in regions across the United States and the world, including quarantines, and “stay-at-home” orders and similar mandates for many individuals to substantially restrict daily activities and for many businesses to curtail or cease normal operations. Specifically, Travis County and Austin, Texas, where the Company operates, issued “stay-at-home” and social distancing orders beginning in mid-April 2020, which have expired to date.

To date, we have not experienced any material negative effects from, or declines in business relating to, COVID-19 and/or Travis County, Texas’s response to the coronavirus, which has included “stay-at-home” and social distancing orders. However, we are currently experiencing delays in obtaining required equipment to start up all the pools we have finished, as equipment is currently being rationed by sellers due to increased demand as a result of the need to replace equipment which was damaged due to the unprecedented 2021 winter storms which affected the Austin area, and the overall increase in new pool builds, which is also being negatively affected by manufacturing and shipping delays due to COVID-19. We are also experiencing delays in obtaining certain equipment. Overall, demand for trade workers is extremely high, which has resulted in higher prices for pools, which we attempt to pass on to customers as much as possible. Furthermore, there is a risk related to permitting taking longer and risk related to labor and equipment shortages. Notwithstanding the above, the demand for pools remains high in Austin and surrounding areas, although demand has most recently shown signs of slowing somewhat over the past month. However, we are uncertain of the potential full magnitude or duration of the business and economic impacts from COVID-19, which include, among other things, significant volatility in financial markets and a potential for global recessions.

Our business could also be negatively impacted over the medium-to-longer term if the disruptions related to COVID-19 decrease consumer confidence generally or with respect to constructing a pool and/or purchasing a home; cause civil unrest; or precipitate a prolonged economic downturn, increase inflation, and/or an extended rise in unemployment or tempering of wage growth, any of which could lower demand for our products; impair our ability to sell and build pools in a typical manner or at all, generate revenues and cash flows, and/or access to lending markets (or significantly increase the costs of doing so), as may be necessary to sustain our business; increase the costs or decrease the supply of building materials or the availability of subcontractors and other talent, including as a result of infections or medically necessary or recommended self-quarantining, or governmental mandates to direct production activities to support public health efforts.

Should the adverse impacts described above (or others that are currently unknown) occur, whether individually or collectively, we would expect to experience, among other things, decreases in new pool contracts, pools built, average selling prices, revenues and net income, and such impacts could be material to our consolidated financial statements. In addition, should the COVID-19 public health effort intensify to such an extent that we cannot operate at all, we may generate few or no new pool contracts and/or completed pools during the applicable period, which could be prolonged. Along with a potential increase in cancellations of pool contracts, if there are prolonged government restrictions on our business and our customers, and/or an extended economic recession, we could be unable to produce revenues and cash flows sufficient to operate our business. Such a circumstance could, among other things, exhaust our available liquidity (and ability to access liquidity sources), which could cause the value of our common stock to decline in value or become worthless.

We may need additional capital which may not be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all, which raises questions about our ability to continue as a going concern.

We had a working capital deficit of $262,518 as of December 31, 2021. With our current cash on hand, expected revenues, and based on our current average monthly expenses, we don’t currently anticipate the need for additional funding in order to continue our operations at their current levels and to pay the costs associated with being a public company for the next 12 months. We may however require additional funding in the future to expand or complete acquisitions. In the event we require additional funding in the future, the most likely source of future funds presently available to us will be through the sale of equity capital. Any sale of share capital will result in dilution to existing stockholders. If we are unable to access additional capital moving forward, it may hurt our ability to grow and to generate future revenues. Furthermore, in order to pay amounts owed in connection with proposed settlements, we may be forced to liquidate assets and/or abandon certain of our business plans. If we are unable to pay such amounts, we may be forced to cease operations and/or seek bankruptcy protection.

These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, the financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The financial statements included herein also include a going concern footnote from our auditors.

Additionally, on April 28, 2020, the Company (through Reliant Custom Homes) secured a construction loan from First United Bank and Trust Co. to be used to develop the land purchased in the third quarter of 2019, which loan provides for funding to be advanced from time to time pursuant to the requirements of the loan for the construction of a custom home. The loan is in the amount of $221,000 and bears interest at the rate of 6.25% per annum (18% upon the occurrence of an event of default). The loan is guaranteed by Reliant Pools and the Company and the land is pledged as collateral for security of the payment of the construction loan pursuant to a deed of trust. The loan, which was initially payable one year from issuance, has since been extended to October 28, 2021, and subsequently to April 28, 2022. The loan agreement contains covenants and restrictions on us and our construction of the property and standard and customary events of default. The loan may be prepaid at any time without penalty. As of December 31, 2021, and through the date of this filing, no amount had been advanced under this loan.

Payments under the loan may decrease cash available for other expenses and our failure to pay the loan when due may have a material adverse effect on our operating results, ability to continue our business operations and the value of our securities. The repayment of the loan is secured by a security interest on our property and the home and is guaranteed by the Company and Reliant Pools. Our failure to comply with the terms of the loan may result in the lender foreclosing on the property and the home, or seeking to enforce the guarantees, which may have a material adverse effect on our assets and the value of our securities, and may force us to abandon our plans to develop a custom home.

Because we have a limited operating history our future operations may not result in profitable operations.

There is no significant operating history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that we will prove successful, and we may never achieve profitable operations. If we are unsuccessful in addressing these risks, our business will most likely fail. We had gross revenue of $2,796,138 and $2,131,388 for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. We had a net loss of $435,197 for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to a net loss of $306,068 for the year ended December 31, 2020. We may not generate profitable operations in the future to ensure our continuation.

We may be negatively impacted by increased inflation.

We and the pool construction industry in general may be adversely affected during periods of high inflation, primarily because of higher construction costs, as we experienced during the end of 2021 and into 2022. In addition, higher mortgage loan interest rates can affect the affordability of mortgage financing to prospective homebuyers, and we rely on new homebuyers for a portion of our pool construction business. While we attempt to pass on increases in our costs through increased sales prices, market forces may limit our ability to do so. If we are unable to raise sales prices enough to compensate for higher costs, or if mortgage loan interest rates increase significantly, our revenues, pool construction gross profit margin and revenues could be adversely affected.

We rely on our management and if they were to leave our company our business plan could be adversely affected.

We are largely dependent upon the personal efforts and abilities of our existing management, currently consisting solely of Elijah May (President and Chief Operating Officer and sole member of the Board of Directors), who plays an active role in our operations. Moving forward, should the services of Mr. May be lost for any reason, the Company will incur costs associated with recruiting replacements and any potential delays in operations which this may cause. If we are unable to replace such individual with a suitably trained alternative individual(s), we may be forced to scale back or curtail our business plan.

We do not currently have any employment agreements or maintain key person life insurance policies on our executive officer. If our executive officer does not devote sufficient time towards our business, we may never be able to effectuate our business plan.

We do not currently have any employment agreements in place with management.

The Company has not entered into an employment agreement with Mr. May, our sole officer. As such, there are no contractual relationships guaranteeing that Mr. May will stay with the Company and continue its operations. In the event he was to resign, the Company may be unable to get another officer and director to fill the void and performance may be significantly affected.

Our inability to diversify our customer base could adversely impact our business and operating results, and expanding to new target markets may open us up to additional risks and challenges.

While we anticipate that a significant portion of our revenues will continue to be derived from customers in and around Austin, Texas, in the near-term, in order to achieve our long-term growth goals, we will need to diversify our customer base and product offerings and penetrate additional markets.

Our efforts to penetrate additional markets are generally in the early stages, and we may not be successful. We may dedicate significant resources to a targeted customer or industry before we achieve meaningful results or are able to effectively evaluate our success. As we target new customers and markets, we will also face different technological, pricing, supply, regulatory and competitive challenges that we may not have experience with. As a result, our efforts to expand to new markets may not succeed, may divert management resources from our existing operations and may require significant financial commitments to unproven areas of our business, all of which may harm our financial performance.

Our operating results may fluctuate due to factors that are difficult to forecast and not within our control.

Our past operating results may not be accurate indicators of future performance, and you should not rely on such results to predict our future performance. Our operating results have fluctuated significantly in the past, and could fluctuate in the future. Factors that may contribute to fluctuations include:

Our executive officer controls a majority of our voting securities and therefore he has the ability to influence matters affecting our stockholders.

Our sole executive officer and director, Elijah May, beneficially owns approximately 59.1% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock and also holds all 1,000 outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock which have super majority voting rights, as described in greater detail under “We have established preferred stock which can be designated by the Company’s Board of Directors without shareholder approval and the board has established Series A Preferred Stock, which gives the holder thereof majority voting power over the Company”, below. As a result, he controls approximately 79.9% of the shareholder vote. As a result, he has the ability to influence matters affecting our stockholders and will therefore exercise control in determining the outcome of all corporate transactions or other matters, including the election of directors, mergers, consolidations, the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, and also the power to prevent or cause a change in control. Any investor who purchases shares will be a minority stockholder and as such will have little to no say in the direction of the Company and the election of directors. Additionally, it will be difficult if not impossible for investors to remove our current director, which will mean he will remain in control of who serves as officers of the Company as well as whether any changes are made in the Board of Directors (currently consisting solely of Mr. May). As a potential investor in the Company, you should keep in mind that even if you own shares of the Company’s common stock and wish to vote them at annual or special stockholder meetings, your shares will likely have little effect on the outcome of corporate decisions. Because Mr. May controls the vote on all shareholder matters, investors may find it difficult to replace our management if they disagree with the way our business is being operated. Additionally, the interests of Mr. May, may differ from the interests of the other stockholders and thus result in corporate decisions that are adverse to other stockholders.

Our officer and director lacks experience in and with publicly-traded companies.

While we rely heavily on Elijah May (President, Chief Operating Officer and sole director; principal executive officer and principal accounting/financial officer), Mr. May has no experience serving as an officer or director of a publicly-traded company, or experience with the reporting requirements which public companies are subject to, other than in his role as an officer and director of the Company. Additionally, Mr. May had little to no significant experience with the financial accounting and preparation requirements of financial statements which are required to file on a quarterly and annual basis under the Exchange Act prior to his service with the Company. We plan to rely on our outside accountants and bookkeepers to help us create a system of accounting controls and procedures to maintain the Company’s accounting records, until such time, if ever, as we generate the revenues required to engage a separate Chief Accounting Officer, with accounting experience with publicly reporting companies. Consequently, our operations, earnings and ultimate financial success could suffer irreparable harm due to our executive’s ultimate lack of experience with publicly-traded companies in general and especially in connection with his lack of experience with the financial accounting and preparation requirements of the Exchange Act.

Risks Related to Our Swimming Pool Construction Operations and the Swimming Pool Construction Industry:

 If we do not continue to receive referrals from prior customers, our customer acquisition costs may increase, and our revenues may decrease. Bad reviews could decrease the demand for our services.

We rely on word-of-mouth advertising for a significant portion of our new customers. If our brand name suffers or the number of customers acquired through referrals drops, our costs associated with acquiring new customers and generating revenue will increase, which will, in turn, have an adverse effect on our gross margins. In the event we are unable to acquire new customers at the rate we currently acquire customers from referrals, our revenues will decline. Additionally, in the event any customers leave us bad reviews on internet review websites such as Yelp or social media, whether such reviews contain factual information or not, it may dissuade other potential customers from using our services, which similarly could reduce the demand for our services and our revenues.

The demand for our swimming pool construction and future planned maintenance services has been, and will be adversely affected by, unfavorable economic conditions.

Consumer discretionary spending affects our sales and is impacted by factors outside of our control, including general economic conditions, disposable income levels, consumer confidence and access to credit. In economic downturns, the demand for swimming pool construction and maintenance services may decline, often corresponding with declines in discretionary consumer spending, the growth rate of pool eligible households and swimming pool construction. Even in generally favorable economic conditions, severe and/or prolonged downturns in the housing market could have a material adverse impact on our financial performance. Such downturns expose us to certain additional risks, including but not limited to the risk of customer closures or bankruptcies, which could shrink our potential customer base and inhibit our ability to collect on those customers’ receivables.

We believe that homeowners’ access to consumer credit is a critical factor enabling the purchase of new pools. If there are prolonged unfavorable economic conditions and downturns in the housing market, or increases in interest rates and mortgage rates, which have each recently increased significantly, it may result in significant tightening of credit markets, which limit the ability of consumers to access financing for new swimming pools and homes, which could negatively impact our sales.

We face intense competition both from within our industry and from other leisure product alternatives.

We face competition from both inside and outside of our industry. Within our industry, we directly compete against various regional and local pool construction companies and will compete directly in the future with regional and local maintenance companies. Outside of our industry, we compete indirectly with alternative suppliers of big-ticket consumer discretionary products, such as boat and motor home distributors, and with other companies who rely on discretionary homeowner expenditures, such as home remodelers. New competitors may emerge as there are low barriers to entry in our industry.

We are susceptible to adverse weather conditions.

Weather is one of the principal external factors affecting our business. For example, unseasonably late warming trends in the spring or early cooling trends in the fall can shorten the length of the pool season. Also, unseasonably cool weather or extraordinary rainfall during the peak season can decrease swimming pool use, installation and maintenance. These weather conditions adversely affect our sales. While warmer weather conditions favorably impact our sales, global warming trends and other significant climate changes can create more variability in the short term or lead to other unfavorable weather conditions that could adversely impact our sales or operations. Drought conditions or water management initiatives may lead to municipal ordinances related to water use restrictions, which could result in decreased pool installations and negatively impact our sales. Unexpected low temperature patterns that are not normal to Texas, such as occurred during last year’s winter freeze, can result in delayed pool construction projects, due to lack of availability of equipment, contractors or other reasons.

Our business is highly seasonal. Our results of operation fluctuate as a result of weather conditions and may be adversely affected by weather conditions and natural disasters.

Although we hope to eventually reduce the seasonality of our sales over time by expanding our presence through acquisitions and expansion in other areas in the State of Texas (e.g., Houston, San Antonio, and Dallas/Fort Worth), at present our business remains highly seasonal and localized, and subject to the weather in the greater Austin, Texas area. Historically, more than 50% of our net sales have been generated in the second and third quarters of the year. These quarters represent the peak months of both swimming pool use, installation, remodeling, repair and maintenance. Moreover, we typically incur net losses during the first quarter of the year. Unseasonably cold weather or extraordinary amounts of rainfall during the peak sales season can significantly reduce pool purchases and disrupt installation schedules, thereby adversely affecting sales and operating revenues. Our business is significantly affected by weather patterns. For example, unseasonably late warming trends can decrease the length of the pool season, and unseasonably cool weather and/or extraordinary amounts of rainfall in the peak season may decrease swimming pool use, resulting in lower maintenance needs and decreased sales.

Weather conditions and natural disasters, such as hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, wildfires, droughts and floods can harm our business. These can delay construction, adversely affect the cost or availability of materials or labor, or damage projects under construction. In particular, because we operate in Austin, Texas our operations are subject to increased risk of wildfires. Furthermore, if our insurance does not fully cover losses resulting from these events or any related business interruption, our assets, financial condition and capital resources could be adversely affected.

We depend on a network of suppliers to source our products. Product quality or safety concerns could negatively impact our sales and expose us to legal claims.

We rely on manufacturers and other suppliers to provide us with the products we sell and distribute. As we increase the number of products we distribute, our exposure to potential liability claims may increase. The risk of claims may also be greater with respect to products manufactured by third-party suppliers outside the United States, particularly in China. Uncertainties with respect to foreign legal systems may adversely affect us in resolving claims arising from our foreign sourced products. Even if we are successful in defending any claim relating to the products we distribute, claims of this nature could negatively impact customer confidence in our products and our company. Additionally, delays in receiving products manufactured in China or other countries as a result of COVID-19 shipping or production delays or backups, or as a result of future weather events, similar to the unprecedented February 2021 freeze in Texas, which resulted in pool equipment, filters and heaters, being compromised, and which in turn has created a significant delay in parts and equipment availability, may adversely affect, or delay, our ability to complete projects, which may in turn delay or decrease revenues.

A significant amount of our revenues has historically been due to only a small number of customers, and if we were to lose any material customer, our results of operations could be adversely affected.

There were no customers representing more than 10% of gross revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021 or the year ending December 31, 2020; however, the Company had three customers representing more than 10% of gross revenue, and a combined 34% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2019.

As a result, in the past, the majority of our revenues have been due to only a small number of customers, and we may have only a small number of customers in future years. As a result, in the event our customers do not pay us amounts owed, terminate work in progress or we are unable to find new customers moving forward, it could have a materially adverse effect on our results of operations and could force us to curtail or abandon our current business operations.

If we are not able to compete effectively against companies with greater resources, our prospects for future success will be jeopardized.

The recreational pool construction and maintenance industry is highly competitive. We compete with numerous local competitors for such services. Many of our competitors are larger, more established companies with greater resources to devote to marketing, as well as greater brand recognition. In addition, the relatively low barriers to entry also permit new competitors to enter the industry easily. Moreover, if one or more of our competitors or suppliers were to merge, the change in the competitive landscape could adversely affect our competitive position. Additionally, to the extent that competition in our markets intensifies, we may be required to reduce our prices in order to remain competitive. If we do not compete effectively, or if we reduce our prices without making commensurate reductions in our costs, our net sales, margins, and profitability and our future prospects for success may be harmed.

The products we install and/or our services could contain defects or they may be installed or operated incorrectly, which could result in claims against us.

Defects may be found in our existing or future pool installations. This could result in, among other things, a delay in the recognition or loss of net sales and loss of market share. These defects could cause us to incur significant warranty, support, and repair costs, divert the attention of our employees from new projects, and harm our relationships with our customers. Defects or other problems in our installations could result in personal injury or financial or other damages to customers or third parties. Our customers and third parties could also seek damages from us for their losses. A product liability claim brought against us, even if unsuccessful, would likely be time consuming and costly to defend and the adverse publicity generated by such a claim against us or others in our industry could negatively impact our reputation.

We are subject to claims, and may in the future continue to be subject to various lawsuits and claims, from customers, subcontractors, employees and third parties, which lawsuits and claims could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Due to the nature of our business operations, we may become party to various other lawsuits and claims which arise in the ordinary course of our business in the future. These may include, but are not limited to, claims for personal injuries, product liability and personal property damage caused by our actions or actions that we fail to take, the actions or inactions of subcontractors we hire from time to time, products we install, our construction activities, or the actions of third parties which take place at our job sites. Although specific allegations may differ, we believe the majority of the lawsuits and claims we may face in the future will likely involve claims that we failed to construct pools and spas or our custom home in accordance with plans and specifications or applicable construction codes and seek reimbursement for sums allegedly needed to remedy the alleged deficiencies, assert contract issues or will relate to personal injuries. We may also file lawsuits in certain cases pursuant to which we may seek contribution from our subcontractors and third parties for any damages and costs. The outcome of litigation is difficult to assess or quantify. Lawsuits can result in the payment of substantial damages by defendants. Regardless of whether any claims against us are valid or whether we are liable, claims may be expensive to defend and may divert time and money away from our operations. Insurance may not be available at all or in sufficient amounts to cover any liabilities with respect to these or other matters. Any resources that we, our management or employees are forced to expend defending or prosecuting lawsuits, including, but not limited to legal fees and expenses, time spent away from our business activities and customers, and damages and other liabilities we are forced to pay in any lawsuits, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, could force us to curtail our business operations or if material enough, could force us to seek bankruptcy protection in the future, which could cause the value of any investment in the Company to decline to zero.

Prior lawsuits, settlements and judgments and/or a failure to meet customer specifications or expectations could result in lost revenues, increased expenses, negative publicity, claims for damages and harm to our reputation.

Two of our former customers previously filed lawsuits against us claiming breach of contract and alleged defects in the pools we built. In September and November 2020, we entered into separate agreements with each of the former customers to settle the lawsuits in consideration for an aggregate of $420,000, which amounts have been paid to date. Such claims by former customers, settlements or judgments and/or settlements in such litigation and/or a failure or inability by us to meet a future client’s expectations could damage our reputation and adversely affect our ability to attract new business and result in delayed or lost revenue. In the event the pools, future custom homes or solar installations, we complete are not up to the expectations and standards of our clients, we face negative publicity and our reputation could be hurt. Furthermore, we may be sued or unable to collect accounts receivable if a future client is not satisfied with our services.

In addition, any failure to meet customers’ specifications or expectations could result in:

Because many of our customers require financing for pool and spa installations, increases in interest rates could lower demand for our services.

A significant percentage of our customers finance their pool and spa installations. Increases in interest rates have in the past and may in the future lower demand for our services because borrowing costs to potential customers seeking to add pools or spas would increase. Even if potential customers do not need financing, changes in interest rates could make it harder for them to sell their existing homes to potential buyers who need financing and could therefore make them less willing to increase the value of their homes through the construction of pools and spas. Interest rates have recently increased, and the Federal Reserve has indicated plans to increase interest rates even more throughout 2022 in an effort to combat increased inflation. Increases in interest rates could prevent or limit our ability to attract new customers and decrease demand for our services, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

We could be adversely affected if any of our significant customers default in their obligations to us.

Defaults by any of our customers could have a significant adverse effect on our revenues, profitability and cash flow, which may be exacerbated by the fact that we have a limited number of customers. Our customers may in the future default on their obligations to us due to bankruptcy, lack of liquidity, operational failure or other reasons deriving from the current general economic environment. If a customer defaults on its obligations to us, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Our backlog may not be realized or may not result in revenue or profit.

As of December 31, 2021, we had approximately $4,024,103 of remaining performance obligations on our construction contracts, which we also refer to as backlog. We expect to recognize our backlog as revenue during 2022. However, some of our contracts may be terminated by our customers on short notice. Reductions in backlog due to cancellation by a customer, or for other reasons, including, but not limited to COVID-19, economic uncertainty, recessions, increases in interest rates or inflation and delays could significantly reduce the revenue that we actually receive from contracts in our backlog. In the event of a project cancellation, we may be reimbursed for certain costs, but we typically have no contractual right to the total revenue reflected in our backlog. Projects may remain in our backlog for extended periods of time.

Given these factors, our backlog at any point in time may not accurately represent the revenue that we expect to realize during any period, and our backlog as of the end of a fiscal year may not be indicative of the revenue we expect to earn in the following fiscal year. Inability to realize revenue from our backlog could have an adverse effect on our business.

The current economic climate has led to shortages of labor and increases in labor costs and both shortages in, and increases in the cost of, equipment.

Our cost of goods sold was $2,158,969 for the year ended December 31, 2021, compared to cost of goods sold of $1,475,833 for the year ended December 31, 2020, an increase of $683,136 or 46.3% from the prior period. Cost of goods sold increased mainly due to an increase in decking, plaster and labor costs, due to the increased demand we are seeing for such items due to the overall increase in demand for pools in the Austin, Texas area, as well as shortages of labor and increases in labor costs (due to COVID-19 and the overall increase in demand) and both shortages in, and increases in the cost of, equipment, due to among other things, shipping delays and increases in demand. These trends may continue or accelerate in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Risks Relating to Our Planned Custom Homebuilder Operations:

A downturn in the homebuilding market could adversely affect our planned operations as a custom home builder.

In the third quarter of 2019, we acquired land on which we are in the process of building a custom home, which we then plan to sell. Demand for new and custom homes is sensitive to changes in economic conditions such as the level of employment, consumer confidence, consumer income, the availability of financing and interest rate levels. Reduced demand for new homes could have a negative effect on us and our ability to sell the planned custom home.

We may experience significant costs in connection with the construction of our planned custom home.

The cost of materials and labor necessary to complete the construction of our planned custom home are subject to inflationary pressures, supply and demand and the health of the economy in general. Higher than budgeted costs could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and cause us to lose money on the construction and sale of the planned custom home.

Increasing mortgage interest rates could decrease a buyer’s ability or desire to purchase our planned custom home.

In general, housing demand is adversely affected by increases in interest rates and a lack of availability of mortgage financing. We anticipate any buyer of our planned custom home to finance their home purchase through a third-party lender providing mortgage financing. If mortgage interest rates continue to increase, as they have most recently, and, consequently, the ability of a prospective buyer to finance home purchases is adversely affected, our ability to sell our planned custom home may be adversely affected and the impact may be material.

Shortages in the availability of subcontract labor may delay construction schedules and increase our costs.

We anticipate depending on the availability of, and satisfactory performance by, consultants and subcontractors for the design and construction of our planned custom home. The cost of labor may be adversely affected by shortages of qualified trades people, changes in laws and regulations relating to union activity and changes in immigration laws and trends in labor migration. Shortages of skilled labor are anticipated to lead to increased labor costs. In the future there may not be a sufficient supply of, or satisfactory performance by, these unaffiliated third-party consultants and subcontractors, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Products supplied to us and work done by subcontractors can expose us to risks that may adversely affect our business.

We plan to rely on subcontractors to perform the actual construction of our custom home, and in many cases, to select and obtain building materials. Despite detailed specifications and quality control procedures, in some cases, subcontractors may use improper construction processes or defective materials. Defective products can result in the need to perform extensive repairs. The cost of complying with our warranty obligations may be significant if we are unable to recover the cost of repairs from subcontractors, materials suppliers and insurers. We may also suffer damage to our reputation, and may be exposed to possible liability, if subcontractors fail to comply with applicable laws, including laws involving things that are not within our control.

Natural disasters and severe weather conditions could delay our planned custom home construction and increase costs.

Our custom homebuilding operations are anticipated to be conducted in areas that are subject to natural disasters, including hurricanes, earthquakes, snowstorms, droughts, floods, wildfires and severe weather. The occurrence of natural disasters or severe weather conditions may delay the construction of our planned custom home, increase costs by damaging inventories and lead to shortages of labor and materials in areas affected by the disasters, and can negatively impact the demand for new homes in affected areas. Any natural disasters or similar events effecting our planned homebuilding operations may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

If we are unable to successfully compete in the highly competitive housing industry, our financial results and growth may suffer.

The housing industry is highly competitive. We plan to compete in such industry with national, regional and local developers and homebuilders, resale of existing homes, condominiums and available rental housing. Some of our competitors have significantly greater financial resources and some may have lower costs than we do. Competition among homebuilders of all sizes is based on a number of interrelated factors, including location, reputation, amenities, design, innovation, quality and price. Competition is expected to be intense. If we are unable to successfully compete, our financial results and growth could suffer.

Expirations, amendments or changes to tax laws, incentives or credits may negatively impact our business.

Under previous tax law, certain expenses of owning a home, including mortgage loan interest costs and real estate taxes, generally were deductible expenses for the purpose of calculating an individual’s federal, and in some cases state, tax liability. However, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) signed into law on December 22, 2017, limits these deductions for some individuals starting in 2018. The Tax Act caps individual state and local tax deductions at $10,000 for the aggregate of state and local real property and income taxes or state and local sales taxes. Additionally, the Tax Act reduces the cap on mortgage interest deduction to $750,000 of debt for debt incurred after December 15, 2017 while retaining the $1 million debt cap for debt incurred prior to December 15, 2017. The limits on deductibility of mortgage interest and property taxes may increase the after-tax cost of owning a home for some individuals.

Any increases in personal income tax rates and/or additional tax deduction limits could adversely impact demand for our planned custom home, which could adversely affect the results of our operations.

We will be subject to home warranty and construction defect claims arising in the ordinary course of business, which may lead to additional reserves or expenses.

Home warranty and construction defect claims are common in the homebuilding industry and can be costly. Certain claims may not be covered by insurance or may exceed applicable coverage limits, which could be material to our financial results.

A major safety incident relating to our operations could be costly in terms of potential liabilities and reputational damage.

Construction sites are inherently dangerous and pose certain inherent health and safety risks to construction workers, employees and other visitors. Due to health and safety regulatory requirements, health and safety performance is important to the success of our construction activities. Any failure in health and safety performance may result in penalties for non-compliance with relevant regulatory requirements, and a failure that results in a major or significant health and safety incident is likely to be costly and could expose us to claims resulting from personal injury. Such a failure could generate significant negative publicity and have a corresponding impact on our reputation, our relationships with relevant regulatory agencies or governmental authorities, and our ability to attract customers and employees, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

Regulatory, corporate governance and reporting risks:

Government regulations could increase the cost of, or delay, our construction and remodeling projects and adversely affect our business or financial results.

We are subject to extensive and complex regulations that affect land development and home construction, including zoning, design and building standards as well as rules and regulations concerning land use and the protection of health and the environment including those governing the discharge of pollutants to water and air, the handling of hazardous materials and the cleanup of contaminated sites. These regulations often provide broad discretion to the administering governmental authorities as to the conditions we must meet prior to being approved, if approved at all. We are subject to determinations by these authorities as to the adequacy of water and sewage facilities and other local services. The particular impact and requirements of environmental regulations vary greatly according to the site, the site’s environmental conditions and the present and former use of the site. We expect that increasingly stringent requirements will be imposed on construction companies in the future. Regulatory issues and environmental laws may result in delays, cause us to implement time consuming and expensive compliance programs and prohibit or severely restrict projects in certain environmentally sensitive regions or areas. Environmental regulations can also have an adverse impact on the availability and price of certain raw materials. Furthermore, we could incur substantial costs, including cleanup costs, fines, penalties and other sanctions and damages from third-party claims for property damage or personal injury, as a result of our failure to comply with, or liabilities under, applicable environmental laws and regulations. Finally, while we currently pass the costs of permitting and compliance on to our customers, if such costs increase in the future, customers may be unwilling to pay such costs, and it could result in a decrease in demand for our services or our margins. 

We face corporate governance risks and negative perceptions of investors associated with the fact that we currently have only one director, who is not independent.

Currently, Mr. May, our Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Operating Officer, serves as our sole director. As such, Mr. May can, among other things, declare himself discretionary bonuses, and determine his own compensation level. As such, Mr. May has significant control over our business direction. Additionally, there are no independent members of the Board of Directors available to second and/or approve related party transactions involving Mr. May, including the compensation paid to Mr. May, and any future employment agreements we enter into with such individual. Therefore, investors may perceive that because no other directors are approving related party transactions involving Mr. May, that such transactions are not fair to the Company. The price of our common stock may be adversely affected and/or devalued compared to similarly sized companies with multiple unrelated and independent officers and directors due to the investing public’s perception of limitations facing our Company due to the above.

Any material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting could, if not remediated, result in material misstatements in our financial statements.

As a public company reporting to the SEC, we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, including Section 404(a), subject to the phase in described in greater detail below under “The JOBS Act also allows us to postpone the date by which we must comply with certain laws and regulations intended to protect investors and to reduce the amount of information provided in reports filed with the SEC.”, that requires that we annually evaluate and report on our systems of internal controls. If material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal controls are discovered or occur in the future, our financial statements may contain material misstatements and we could be required to restate our financial results. This could result in a decrease in our stock price, securities litigation, and the diversion of significant management and financial resources.

In the future, when we cease to meet the criteria to be considered an “emerging growth company” and if we cease to meet the criteria to be considered a “smaller reporting company,” we will also become subject to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which requires an auditor attestation of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. This additional requirement will increase our financial, accounting and administrative costs, and other related expenses, which may be significant to our financial results. In addition, due to our limited internal resources, further compliance efforts put additional strain on our resources. Despite our efforts, if our auditors are unable to attest to the effectiveness of our internal controls, we may be subject to regulatory scrutiny and higher risk of stockholder litigation, which could harm our reputation, lower our stock price or cause us to incur additional expenses.

Because we are not subject to compliance with rules requiring the adoption of certain corporate governance measures, our stockholders have limited protections against interested director transactions, conflicts of interest and similar matters.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as rule changes proposed and enacted by the SEC, the New York Stock Exchange and The Nasdaq Stock Market, as a result of Sarbanes-Oxley, require the implementation of various measures relating to corporate governance. These measures are designed to enhance the integrity of corporate management and the securities markets and apply to securities that are listed on those exchanges or The Nasdaq Stock Market. Because we are not presently required to comply with many of the corporate governance provisions and because we chose to avoid incurring the substantial additional costs associated with such compliance any sooner than legally required, we have not yet adopted these measures.

Because we only have one director, who is not independent, we do not currently have an independent audit or compensation committee. As a result, our directors have the ability to, among other things, determine their own level of compensation. Until we comply with such corporate governance measures, regardless of whether such compliance is required, the absence of such standards of corporate governance may leave our stockholders without protections against interested director transactions, conflicts of interest, if any, and similar matters and any potential investors may be reluctant to provide us with funds necessary to expand our operations.

We intend to comply with all corporate governance measures relating to director independence as and when required. However, we may find it very difficult or be unable to attract and retain qualified officers, directors and members of board committees required to provide for our effective management as a result of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 has resulted in a series of rules and regulations by the SEC that increase responsibilities and liabilities of directors and executive officers. The perceived increased personal risk associated with these recent changes may make it more costly or deter qualified individuals from accepting these roles.

Risks relating to our common stock:

Stockholders may be diluted significantly through our efforts to obtain financing and satisfy obligations through the issuance of additional shares of our common stock.

We have no committed source of financing. Wherever possible, our Board of Directors (currently consisting solely of Mr. May) will attempt to use non-cash consideration to satisfy obligations. In many instances, we believe that the non-cash consideration will consist of restricted shares of our common stock. Our Board of Directors has authority, without action or vote of the stockholders, to issue all or part of the authorized but unissued shares of common stock. In addition, if a trading market develops for our common stock, we may attempt to raise capital by selling shares of our common stock, possibly at a discount to market. These actions will result in dilution of the ownership interests of existing stockholders, may further dilute common stock book value, and that dilution may be material. Such issuances may also serve to enhance existing management’s ability to maintain control of the Company because the shares may be issued to parties or entities committed to supporting existing management.

We may face negative perceptions and potential adverse negative effects, related to past and pending actions involving our former officer, director and significant stockholder.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2017, we learned that Michael Chavez, our then President and then sole director, and current significant stockholder, was barred from association with any FINRA member in any capability. Mr. Chavez similarly became aware of the FINRA bar at the same time, previously believing that FINRA had agreed that he would terminate his FINRA license and settle certain outstanding claims raised by FINRA without any other penalties or permanent bar. Separately, on March 11, 2019, the SEC charged Mr. Chavez, along with various other parties, with perpetrating an alleged multi-million-dollar stock distribution and market manipulation scheme involving two microcap companies (SEC v. River North Equity LLC, Civil Action No. 1:19-cv-01711 (N.D. Ill. Filed March 11, 2019)). The complaint charges Mr. Chavez with violating the broker-dealer registration provisions of Section 15(a) of the Exchange Act and seeks equitable and monetary relief. Such action has been stayed (effective in January 2021), pending the outcome of an active parallel criminal matter, United States of America v. David Foley and Bennie Blankenship (two of the defendants in the Civil Action), which action is currently pending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division, and the outcome of such litigation is currently unknown. Our company and our securities (including our stock prices, liquidity and the overall market for our securities) could be subject to, and negatively affected by, actual issues caused by Mr. Chavez’s FINRA bar, pending SEC action, or the result of such SEC action, and/or perceptions in connection therewith, and Mr. Chavez’s relation to, ownership of, and past history with, the Company. Furthermore, such past and pending actions could negatively affect the ability of the Company to obtain, or prevent the Company from obtaining FINRA approval for future corporate actions and/or approval for a potential uplisting on the NYSE American, The Nasdaq Capital Market, or other exchange or market. Such past and pending actions, and the outcome thereof, may also have further negative effects on the Company, its securities, its ability to raise funding in the future, its ability to sell securities in the future, the prices at which it may be able to sell securities, the value of its securities, the investment banking firms, consultants, service providers, and potential officer and director candidates, willing to work with and for, the Company in the future, and other matters, all of which may have a negative effect on the value of the Company’s securities.

Separately, as Mr. Chavez is a greater than 20% stockholder of the Company, we may in the future be required to disclose any final orders issued by the SEC in connection with the pending SEC action, in any offering we undertake in the future (as long as Mr. Chavez continues to own over 20% of our securities), to potential purchasers in any Rule 506 or Regulation D offering under the Securities Act that we may undertake in the future. Such disclosure(s) may negatively impact a potential investor’s willingness to invest in the Company and/or make it harder for the Company to raise funding or sell securities in the future.

Additionally, in the event that Mr. Chavez’s pending SEC litigation action results in Mr. Chavez being associated with a public company, from participating in the offering of any penny stock, places limitations on his activities, or becoming subject to any other ‘bad actor’ disqualification as set forth in Rule 506(d) of the Securities Act, we will be prohibited from undertaking any offerings under Rule 506 or Regulation A, as long as Mr. Chavez continues to own over 20% of our outstanding shares. Such prohibition may make it more difficult or impossible for us to raise funding or sell securities in the future, and may further make it less likely that any third parties would want to enter into a transaction with us, or take our securities in consideration for any transaction.

There is currently a limited public market for our common stock, which is volatile, sporadic and an illiquid market.

Although our common stock was approved for quotation on the OTC Pink Market maintained by OTC Markets in January 2020 and trading of our common stock has since moved to the OTCQB Market maintained by OTC Markets, to date only a limited number of shares of our common stock have traded and a significant market may not develop in the future. If for any reason a more robust public trading market does not develop, stockholders may have difficulty selling their shares of common stock should they desire to do so.

Even if a more significant trading market develops, we cannot predict how liquid that market might become. The trading price of our common stock, if any, in the future, is likely to be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in price in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control.

These factors include: 

In addition, the stock market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of such public companies. Such fluctuations may be even more pronounced in the future. These broad market and industry factors may seriously harm the market price of our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance. In addition, in the past, following periods of volatility in the overall market and the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against these companies. This type of litigation, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of our management’s attention and resources.

We also currently have a volatile, sporadic and illiquid market for our common stock, which is subject to wide fluctuations in response to several factors, including those discussed above. Our stock price may also be impacted by factors that are unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance. These market fluctuations, as well as general economic, political and market conditions, such as recessions, global epidemics or pandemics, interest rates or international currency fluctuations may adversely affect the market price and liquidity of our common stock.

We may continue to have potential liability for certain issuances of shares of common stock in possible violation of federal and state securities laws.

In September 2016, we discovered that we may have not provided the investors in our January 2016 to September 2016 offering all information and materials (including current audited financial statements), as is required under the Securities Act in order to claim an exemption from registration pursuant to Rule 506 of the Securities Act. We believe that all of such transactions still complied with, and were exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. Nevertheless, based on the above, we offered the January 2016 to September 2016 purchasers of our common stock the right to rescind their previous purchases and receive, in exchange for any shares relinquished to us, a payment equal to their original purchase price plus interest at the applicable statutory rate in the state in which they reside. The rescission offer expired at 5:00 pm (CST) on October 26, 2016. None of the prior purchasers opted to rescind their prior purchases in connection with the rescission offer.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2017, we learned that Michael Chavez, our then President and then sole director was barred from association with any FINRA member in any capability. Mr. Chavez similarly became aware of the FINRA bar at the same time, previously believing that FINRA had agreed that he would terminate his FINRA license and settle the outstanding claims raised by FINRA without any other penalties or permanent bar. Pursuant to Rule 506(d), Rule 506 of the Securities Act, is not available for a sale of securities if the issuer; any predecessor of the issuer; any affiliated issuer; any director, executive officer, other officer participating in the offering, general partner or managing member of the issuer; any beneficial owner of 20% or more of the issuer’s outstanding voting equity securities, has been subject to certain disqualifying events after September 23, 2013, including: certain criminal convictions; certain court injunctions and restraining orders; final orders of certain state and federal regulators; certain SEC disciplinary orders; certain SEC cease-and-desist orders; SEC stop orders and orders suspending the Regulation A exemption; suspension or expulsion from membership in a self-regulatory organization (SRO), such as FINRA, or from association with an SRO member; or U.S. Postal Service false representation orders. However, in the event the disqualifying event occurred prior to September 23, 2013, the issuer is not prohibited from relying on Rule 506, provided that pursuant to Rule 506(e) of the Securities Act, an issuer is required to furnish to each purchaser, a reasonable time prior to sale, a description in writing of any matters that would have triggered disqualification under Rule 506(d)(1), but occurred before September 23, 2013.

As Mr. Chavez’s FINRA bar constituted a disqualifying event under Rule 506(d), the Company was required to furnish to each purchaser of securities of the Company, a reasonable time prior to sale, a description in writing of such event. The Company did not do that, because as described above, the Company and Mr. Chavez only became aware of the FINRA bar subsequent to the close of the offering. Notwithstanding the fact that the Company was not aware of Mr. Chavez’s FINRA bar, the Company determined that such failure to provide such information may prohibit the Company from relying on a Rule 506 exemption for prior issuances and sales of shares. We believe that all such transactions still complied with, and were exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, and as a result, management determined that the Company would offer rescission to all of its stockholders in April 2017. In connection therewith, in April 2017, we offered every stockholder of our common stock the right to rescind their previous purchases and acquisitions and to receive, in exchange for any shares relinquished to us, a payment equal to their original purchase price or consideration provided, plus interest at the applicable statutory rate in the state in which they reside. The rescission offer expired at 5:00 pm (CST) on April 29, 2017. None of our stockholders opted to rescind their prior purchase/acquisitions in connection with the rescission offer.

The federal securities laws and certain state securities laws do not expressly provide that a rescission offer will terminate a purchaser’s right to rescind a sale of securities that was not registered under the relevant securities laws as required. Accordingly, we may continue to be potentially liable under certain securities laws for the offer and sale of the shares sold and issued between May 2014 and September 2016, totaling $57,950 of securities in aggregate, along with statutory interest on such shares, even after we completed our rescission offers.

We have not paid any cash dividends in the past and have no plans to issue cash dividends in the future, which could cause the value of our common stock to have a lower value than other similar companies which do pay cash dividends.

We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock to date and do not anticipate any cash dividends being paid to holders of our common stock in the foreseeable future. While our dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, it is anticipated that any earnings will be retained to finance our future expansion. As we have no plans to issue cash dividends in the future, our common stock could be less desirable to other investors and as a result, the value of our common stock may decline, or fail to reach the valuations of other similarly situated companies who have historically paid cash dividends in the past.

Our common stock is considered a “penny stock” under SEC rules and it may be more difficult to resell securities classified as “penny stock.”

Our common stock is a “penny stock” under applicable SEC rules (generally defined as non-exchange traded stock with a per-share price below $5.00). Unless we maintain a per-share price above $5.00 (or obtain a listing on a national securities exchange), our common stock will continue to be a “penny stock.” These rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that recommend the purchase or sale of penny stocks to persons other than those who qualify as “established customers” or “accredited investors.” For example, broker-dealers must determine the appropriateness for non-qualifying persons of investments in penny stocks. Broker-dealers must also provide, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, disclose the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, furnish monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account, provide a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser, and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction.

Legal remedies available to an investor in “penny stocks” may include the following:

These requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our securities, which could severely limit the market price and liquidity of our securities. These requirements may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and may affect your ability to resell our common stock.

Many brokerage firms will discourage or refrain from recommending investments in penny stocks. Most institutional investors will not invest in penny stocks. In addition, many individual investors will not invest in penny stocks due to, among other reasons, the increased financial risk generally associated with these investments.

For these reasons, penny stocks may have a limited market and, consequently, limited liquidity. We can give no assurance at what time, if ever, our common stock will not be classified as a “penny stock” in the future.

Sales of our common stock could reduce the price of our stock.

As of the date of this Report, we have 6,709,400 shares of our common stock held by non-affiliates and 9,675,600 shares held by affiliates which Rule 144 of the Securities Act defines as “restricted securities.” All of the restricted shares outstanding are available for sale under Rule 144, although shares held by affiliates are subject to restrictions relating to the amount that may be sold in any 90 day period and manner in which such sales may be made, among other limitations. The availability for sale of substantial amounts of common stock under Rule 144 could reduce prevailing market prices for our securities.

Risks relating to the JOBS Act:

The JOBS Act allows us to postpone the date by which we must comply with certain laws and regulations and to reduce the amount of information provided in reports filed with the SEC. We cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to “emerging growth companies” will make our common stock less attractive to investors.

We are and we will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest to occur of (i) the last day of the fiscal year during which our total annual revenues equal or exceed $1.07 billion (subject to adjustment for inflation), (ii) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of our initial public offering (which went effective on August 14, 2017, and which last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of our initial public offering is December 31, 2022), (iii) the date on which we have, during the previous three-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt securities, or (iv) the date on which we are deemed a “large accelerated filer” (with at least $700 million in public float) under the Exchange Act. For so long as we remain an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” as described in further detail in the risk factors below. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we will rely on some or all of these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile. We have availed ourselves of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements which are allowed pursuant to the JOBS Act and our reduced disclosure may make it more difficult for investors and securities analysts to evaluate us and may result in less investor confidence.

Our election not to opt out of JOBS Act extended accounting transition period may not make our financial statements easily comparable to other companies.

Pursuant to the JOBS Act, as an “emerging growth company”, we can elect to opt out of the extended transition period for any new or revised accounting standards that may be issued by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) or the SEC. We have elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, we, as an “emerging growth company”, can adopt the standard for the private company. This may make a comparison of our financial statements with any other public company which is not either an “emerging growth company” nor an “emerging growth company” which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible as possible different or revised standards may be used.

The JOBS Act also allows us to postpone the date by which we must comply with certain laws and regulations intended to protect investors and to reduce the amount of information provided in reports filed with the SEC.

The JOBS Act is intended to reduce the regulatory burden on “emerging growth companies”. The Company meets the definition of an “emerging growth company” (i.e., until no later than December 31, 2022), and so long as it qualifies as an “emerging growth company,” it will, among other things:

The Company intends to take advantage of all of the reduced regulatory and reporting requirements that will be available to it so long as it qualifies as an “emerging growth company”. The Company has elected not to opt out of the extension of time to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards available under Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act. Among other things, this means that the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to provide an attestation report on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting so long as it qualifies as an “emerging growth company”, which may increase the risk that weaknesses or deficiencies in the internal control over financial reporting go undetected. Likewise, so long as it qualifies as an “emerging growth company”, the Company may elect not to provide certain information, including certain financial information and certain information regarding compensation of executive officers, which it would otherwise have been required to provide in filings with the SEC, which may make it more difficult for investors and securities analysts to evaluate the Company. As a result, investor confidence in the Company and the market price of its common stock may be adversely affected.

Notwithstanding the above, we are also currently a “smaller reporting company”, meaning that we are not an investment company, an asset-backed issuer, or a majority-owned subsidiary of a parent company that is not a smaller reporting company and have a public float of less than (a) $250 million or (b) less than $700 million and annual revenues of less than $100 million, during the most recently completed fiscal year. In the event that we are still considered a “smaller reporting company”, at such time as we cease being an “emerging growth company” as of December 31, 2022, the disclosure we will be required to provide in our SEC filings will increase, but will still be less than it would be if we were not considered either an “emerging growth company” or a “smaller reporting company”. Specifically, similar to “emerging growth companies”, “smaller reporting companies” are able to provide simplified executive compensation disclosures in their filings; are exempt from the provisions of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requiring that independent registered public accounting firms provide an attestation report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting; and have certain other decreased disclosure obligations in their SEC filings, including, among other things, only being required to provide two years of audited financial statements in annual reports. Decreased disclosures in our SEC filings due to our status as an “emerging growth company” or “smaller reporting company” may make it harder for investors to analyze the Company’s results of operations and financial prospects.

We have established preferred stock which can be designated by the Company’s Board of Directors without shareholder approval and the board has established Series A Preferred Stock, which gives the holder thereof majority voting power over the Company.

We have authorized capital stock consisting of 70,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share. As of the date of this Report, we have 16,385,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock designated and issued and outstanding. The shares of preferred stock of the Company may be issued from time to time in one or more series, each of which shall have a distinctive designation or title as shall be determined by the board of directors of the Company (currently consisting solely of Elijah May) prior to the issuance of any shares thereof. The preferred stock may have such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and such qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof as adopted by the board of directors. In May 2020, we designated 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock have the right, voting in aggregate, to vote on all shareholder matters equal to fifty-one percent (51%) of the total vote (the “Super Majority Voting Rights”). For example, if there are 16,385,000 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding at the time of a shareholder vote, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, voting separately as a class, will have the right to vote an aggregate of 17,053,776 shares, out of a total number of 33,438,776 shares voting. A total 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock are currently outstanding and held by Elijah May, our sole officer and director, providing him sole voting rights over the Company.

Mr. May’s ownership and control over the Company, due to his ownership of the Series A Preferred Stock, is non-dilutive and as such, he will continue to control the shareholder vote on all shareholder matters, regardless of the number of shares of common stock outstanding or the ownership of common stock by any other holders of the Company’s common stock.

Because the board of directors is able to designate the powers and preferences of the preferred stock without the vote of a majority of the Company’s shareholders, shareholders of the Company will have no control over what designations and preferences the Company’s preferred stock will have. Investors should keep in mind that the Board of Directors has the authority to issue additional shares of common stock and preferred stock, which could cause substantial dilution to our existing stockholders. Additionally, the dilutive effect of any preferred stock, which we may issue may be exacerbated given the fact that such preferred stock may have super majority voting rights (similar to the Series A Preferred Stock) and/or other rights or preferences which could provide the preferred stockholders with voting control over us subsequent to such offering and/or give those holders the power to prevent or cause a change in control. As a result, the issuance of shares of common stock and/or preferred stock may cause the value of our securities to decrease and/or become worthless.

General risk factors:

A terrorist attack or the threat of a terrorist attack could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Discretionary spending on leisure product offerings such as ours is generally adversely affected during times of economic or political uncertainty. The potential for terrorist attacks, the national and international responses to terrorist attacks, and other acts of war or hostility could create these types of uncertainties and negatively impact our business for the short or long term in ways that cannot presently be predicted.

Our ability to grow and compete in the future will be adversely affected if adequate capital is not available.

The ability of our business to grow and compete depends on the availability of adequate capital, which in turn depends in large part on our cash flow from operations and the availability of equity and debt financing. Our cash flow from operations may not be sufficient or we may not be able to obtain equity or debt financing on acceptable terms or at all to implement our growth strategy. As a result, adequate capital may not be available to finance our current growth plans, take advantage of business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures, any of which could harm our business.

If we are unable to manage future growth effectively, our profitability and liquidity could be adversely affected.

Our ability to achieve our desired growth depends on our execution in functional areas such as management, sales and marketing, finance and general administration and operations. To manage any future growth, we must continue to improve our operational and financial processes and systems and expand, train and manage our employee base and control associated costs. Our efforts to grow our business, both in terms of size and in diversity of customer bases served, will require rapid expansion in certain functional areas and put a significant strain on our resources. We may incur significant expenses as we attempt to scale our resources and make investments in our business that we believe are necessary to achieve long-term growth goals. If we are unable to manage our growth effectively, our expenses could increase without a proportionate increase in revenue, our margins could decrease, and our business and results of operations could be adversely affected.

If we make any acquisitions, they may disrupt or have a negative impact on our business.

If we make acquisitions in the future, funding permitting, which may not be available on favorable terms, if at all, we could have difficulty integrating the acquired company’s assets, personnel and operations with our own. We do not anticipate that any acquisitions or mergers we may enter into in the future would result in a change of control of the Company. In addition, the key personnel of the acquired business may not be willing to work for us. We cannot predict the effect expansion may have on our core business. Regardless of whether we are successful in making an acquisition, the negotiations could disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management and employees and increase our expenses. In addition to the risks described above, acquisitions are accompanied by a number of inherent risks, including, without limitation, the following:

Our business could be severely impaired if and to the extent that we are unable to succeed in addressing any of these risks or other problems encountered in connection with an acquisition, many of which cannot be presently identified. These risks and problems could disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management and employees, increase our expenses and adversely affect our results of operations.

We incur ongoing costs and expenses for SEC reporting and compliance and without sufficient revenues we may not be able to remain in compliance, making it difficult for investors to sell their shares, if at all.

In order for us to remain in compliance with our on-going reporting requirements, we may require additional capital and/or future revenues to cover the cost of these filings, which could comprise a substantial portion of our available cash resources, or require us to obtain additional capital through the sale of equity or debt. If we are unable to further capitalize the Company or generate sufficient revenues to remain in compliance, it may be difficult for you to resell any shares you may purchase, if at all. There are ongoing costs and expenses for SEC reporting, including the general booking and accounting costs for the preparation of the financial quarterly (Form 10-Qs) and annual filings (Form 10-Ks), and auditor’s fees. Further, there are processing costs in preparing and converting documents and disclosures through the EDGAR filing system, including certain costs for the XBRL that are required as part of the EDGAR filing. We estimate that these costs could result in more than $100,000 per year of ongoing costs.

Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws limit the liability of, and provide indemnification for, our officers and directors.

Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, as amended, generally limit our officers’ and directors’ personal liability to the Company and its stockholders for breach of fiduciary duty as an officer or director except for breach of the duty of loyalty or acts or omissions not made in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law. Our Articles of Incorporation, and Bylaws, each as amended and restated, provide indemnification for our officers and directors to the fullest extent authorized by the Nevada Revised Statutes against all expense, liability, and loss, including attorney’s fees, judgments, fines excise taxes or penalties and amounts to be paid in settlement reasonably incurred or suffered by an officer or director in connection with any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil or criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a “Proceeding”) to which the officer or director is made a party or is threatened to be made a party, or in which the officer or director is involved by reason of the fact that he is or was an officer or director of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as an officer or director of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise whether the basis of the Proceeding is an alleged action in an official capacity as an officer or director, or in any other capacity while serving as an officer or director. Thus, the Company may be prevented from recovering damages for certain alleged errors or omissions by the officers and directors for liabilities incurred in connection with their good faith acts for the Company. Such an indemnification payment might deplete the Company’s assets. Stockholders who have questions regarding the fiduciary obligations of the officers and directors of the Company should consult with independent legal counsel. It is the position of the Securities and Exchange Commission that exculpation from and indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder is against public policy and therefore unenforceable.

We may experience adverse impacts on our reported results of operations as a result of adopting new accounting standards or interpretations.

Our implementation of and compliance with changes in accounting rules, including new accounting rules and interpretations, could adversely affect our reported financial position or operating results or cause unanticipated fluctuations in our reported operating results in future periods.

If persons engage in short sales of our common stock, the price of our common stock may decline.

Selling short is a technique used by a stockholder to take advantage of an anticipated decline in the price of a security. In addition, holders of options and warrants will sometimes sell short knowing they can, in effect, cover through the exercise of an option or warrant, thus locking in a profit. A significant number of short sales or a large volume of other sales within a relatively short period of time can create downward pressure on the market price of a security. Stockholders could, therefore, experience a decline in the values of their investment as a result of short sales of our common stock. 

The Company does not insure against all potential losses, which could result in significant financial exposure.

The Company does not have commercial insurance or third-party indemnities to fully cover all operational risks or potential liability in the event of a significant incident or series of incidents causing catastrophic loss. As a result, the Company is, to a substantial extent, self-insured for such events. The Company relies on existing liquidity, financial resources and borrowing capacity to meet short-term obligations that would arise from such an event or series of events. The occurrence of a significant incident, series of events, or unforeseen liability for which the Company is self-insured, not fully insured or for which insurance recovery is significantly delayed could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

Increasing attention to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) matters may impact our business.

Increasing attention to ESG matters, including those related to climate change and sustainability, increasing societal, investor and legislative pressure on companies to address ESG matters, may result in increased costs, reduced profits, increased investigations and litigation or threats thereof, negative impacts on our stock price and access to capital markets, and damage to our reputation. In addition, organizations that provide information to investors on corporate governance and related matters have developed ratings processes for evaluating companies on their approach to ESG matters, including climate change and climate-related risks. Such ratings are used by some investors to inform their investment and voting decisions. Unfavorable ESG ratings and investment community divestment initiatives, among other actions, may lead to negative investor sentiment toward the Company and to the diversion of investment to other industries, which could have a negative impact on our stock price and our access to and costs of capital. Additionally, evolving expectations on various ESG matters, including biodiversity, waste and water, may increase costs, require changes in how we operate and lead to negative stakeholder sentiment.
