PART I

 

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

 

As used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and unless otherwise indicated, the terms “NaturalShrimp,” “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to NaturalShrimp Incorporated and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: NaturalShrimp USA Corporation (“NSC”), NaturalShrimp Global, Inc. (“NS Global”) and Natural Aquatic Systems, Inc. (“NAS”). The Company owns 51% of NaturalShrimp/Hydrenesis LLC, a Texas limited liability company. Unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States Dollars.

 

Corporate History

 

The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on July 3, 2008 under the name “Multiplayer Online Dragon, Inc.” On January 30, 2015, we acquired substantially all of the assets of NaturalShrimp Holdings, Inc. (“NSH”), which had developed the proprietary technology to grow and sell shrimp potentially anywhere in the world that is now the basis of our business. Such assets consisted primarily of all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of its subsidiaries NaturalShrimp Corporation, now called NaturalShrimp USA Corporation (“NSC”), and NaturalShrimp Global (“NS Global”), and certain real property located outside of San Antonio, Texas, in exchange for our issuance of 75,520,240 shares of NaturalShrimp common stock to NSH. As a result of the transaction, NSH acquired 88.62% of the issued and outstanding shares of NaturalShrimp common stock, NSC and NS Global became our wholly-owned subsidiaries, and we changed our principal business to a global shrimp farming company. We changed our name to “NaturalShrimp Incorporated” in 2015.

 

Receivership

 

On September 4, 2024, Streeterville Capital, LLC, a Utah limited liability company, and Bucktown Capital, LLC, a Utah limited liability company (collectively, “Lenders”), filed a Verified Emergency Motion for Appointment of Receiver (the “Motion”) under Civil Case No. 240907138, in the District Court of Salt Lake County, Utah, against NaturalShrimp, Inc. (“NaturalShrimp”).

 

The Motion alleges, among other things, that NaturalShrimp has defaulted under the terms of its loan agreements with the Lenders. The Motion sought the appointment of a Receiver to immediately take control of NaturalShrimp’s assets to preserve the same.

 

An order was entered ex parte by the Utah State Court in the Receivership Case on September 9, 2024 granting the relief requested by Lenders. The Utah State Court duly appointed Amplēo Turnaround and Restructuring, LLC (the “Receiver”) as the receiver over NaturalShrimp’s assets. The Utah State Court’s order further scheduled a hearing to be held on September 17, 2024, on a preliminary injunction to address issues raised in the Motion.

 

On November 20, 2024, the Lenders and NaturalShrimp filed a Verified Amended and Stipulated Emergency Motion for Immediate Appointment of a Receiver in the Receivership Case.

 

On November 22, 2024, the Utah State Court entered an order granting the Stipulated Motion and appointed Receiver as the receiver over the assets of NaturalShrimp. Under the Amended Receivership Order, the Receiver is the receiver over the Receivership Entities’ assets.

 

On February 11, 2025, the Receiver filed a Motion for Approval to Sell Substantially all of the Receivership Entities’ Assets to Streeterville Captial, LLC and Bucktown Captial, LLC (or Their Designees) or Any Other Party With a Higher and Better Offer Free and Clear of All Liens, Interests, Claims, and Encumbrances (the “Sale Motion”) in the Receivership Case. The Sale Motion seeks the Utah State Court’s approval for the Receiver to sell substantially all of the Receivership Entities’ assets free and clear of all liens, interests, claims, and encumbrances to Streeterville and Bucktown Capital, through their designated entities, NaturalShrimp Farms, Inc. (“NV Purchaser”), a Nevada corporation, Iowa Shrimp Holdings, LLC (“IA Purchaser”), an Iowa limited liability company, Texas Shrimp Holdings, LLC (“TX Purchaser” or together with NV Purchaser and IA Purchaser, the “Purchasers”), a Texas limited liability company, for a roughly $35,703,789.87 credit bid (based on a secured and administrative claim basis) and $100,000 cash, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in that certain Asset Purchase Agreement (“APA”) between Trustee and Purchasers. The order to sell the assets was approved on March 30, 2025 and the title to the assets was transferred to the lenders on May 14, 2025. As part of the sale, the Company transferred its ownership rights to its fixed assets, patents and license agreements in exchange for the extinguishment of its outstanding debt to both Streeterville and Buckstown Capital. As of the date of the ownership transfer, the Company ceased its current business operations.

 

Going Concern and Liquidation Basis of Accounting

 

Due to the Company’s significant amount of debt that was in default as of September 30, 2024, Ampleo Turnaround and Restructuring, LLC (“the receiver”) was placed as the receiver over the Company’s assets. Further, the receiver filed a motion to sell substantially all of the Company’s assets to Streeterville and Bucktown Capital for an approximate credit bid of $35.7 million and $100,000 in cash. The motion to sell the assets was approved by the court on March 30, 2025 and title to the assets was transferred to Streeterville on May 14, 2025. The Company believes that it continued to function as a going concern until the date that the motion to sell its assets was approved by the court on March 30, 2025 at which point its liquidation became imminent. As such, the Company has presented going concern financial statements as of March 30, 2025 and for the period from April 1, 2024 through March 30, 2025. Furthermore, in accordance with ASC 205-30, Liquidation Basis of Accounting, the Company has presented its financial statements (using a convenience date) as of March 31, 2025 under the liquidation basis of accounting. As such, the financial statements included in the filing also include a Statement of Net Liabilities in liquidation as of March 31, 2025. As there was only a one-day period between the time liquidation became imminent and the end of the reporting period, a Statement of Changes in Net Assets (liabilities) in liquidation has not been presented.

Business Overview

 

We are an aquaculture technology company that has developed proprietary, patented platform technologies to allow for the production of aquatic species in an ecologically-controlled, high-density, low-cost environment, and in fully contained and independent production facilities without the use of antibiotics or toxic chemicals. NaturalShrimp owns and operates indoor recirculating Pacific White shrimp production facilities in Texas and Iowa using these technologies.

 

On October 5, 2015, together with F&T Water Solutions, LLC (“F&T”), we formed NAS, with NaturalShrimp holding a majority interest. The purpose of NAS was for NaturalShrimp and F&T to jointly develop certain water technologies including, without limitation, the electrocoagulation equipment dealing with enclosed aquatic production systems worldwide.

 

On December 17, 2020, we acquired for $10,000,000 certain assets from VeroBlue Farms USA, Inc. (“VBF”) and its subsidiaries VBF Transport, Inc. and Iowa’s First, Inc., which included facilities located in Webster City, Iowa, Blairsburg, Iowa, and Radcliffe, Iowa. These facilities were designed for the growth of barramundi fish. We have converted 40% of the Webster City facility and 20% of the Blairsburg facility for producing shrimp using the Company’s propriety technology.

 

On May 25, 2021, the Company purchased from F&T its ownership interest in the water treatment technology that the Company and F&T had previously jointly developed and patented (the “Patent”) through NAS, which is used or useful in growing aquatic species in re-circulating and enclosed environments, as well as F&T’s 100% interest in a second patent associated with the Patent that was issued to F&T in March 2018 and all other intellectual property rights owned by F&T. In addition, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of common stock of NAS owned by F&T (the “Common Shares”), thereby making NAS a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The purchase price for both the Patent and the Common Shares totaled $3,000,000 in cash and 13,861,386 shares of NaturalShrimp common stock valued at $7,000,000 for a total consideration of $10,000,000.

 

On August 25, 2021, the Company, through its now wholly-owned subsidiary NAS, entered into an Equipment Rights Agreement with Hydrenesis Delta Systems, LLC, and a Technology Rights Agreement with Hydrenesis Aquaculture, LLC, in a sub-license agreement with Hydrenesis Aquaculture LLC. The Equipment Rights Agreements relates to specialized and proprietary equipment used to produce and control, dose, and infuse Hydrogas® and RLS® into both water and other chemical species, while the Technology Rights Agreement provides us with a sublicense to the rights to Hydrogas® and RLS®. These technologies enhance the health of the aquatic species and minimize stress in high ammonia conditions. Each such agreement is for a 10-year term and automatically renew for successive 10-year terms unless terminated in accordance therewith. The agreements give NAS the exclusive rights to purchase or distribute the technology, or buy or rent the equipment, in the Industry Sector, which is the primary business and revenue stream generated from indoor aquaculture farming of any species in the Territory, defined as anywhere in the world except for the countries in the Gulf Corporation Council. The Company paid Hydrenesis Delta Systems, LLC the sum of $2,500,000 (staged over a period of time, with $1,250,000 still due), plus a 12.5% royalty for the Equipment Rights Agreement and for the Technology Rights Agreement. The Company paid Hydrenesis Aquaculture, LLC a total of $10,000,000, comprised of $2,500,000 at closing, $1,000,000 within 60 days and 6,500,000 shares of common stock of the Company. The Technology Rights Agreement also carried the same royalty provision.

 

Development of our Technology

 

General Background and Overview

 

Historically, efforts to raise shrimp in a high-density, closed system at the commercial level have been met with either modest success or outright failure through “BioFloc Technology.” An aquaculture system using “BioFloc Technology” recycles waste nutrients to culture microorganisms to form microbial protein from the toxic waste and other organic matter in the water. Infectious agents such as parasites, bacteria, and viruses potentially present in BioFloc systems are the most damaging and most difficult to control. While bacterial infection can in some cases be combated using antibiotics (although not always), the use of antibiotics is generally considered undesirable and counter to “green” cultivation practices. Viruses can be worse in that they are immune to antibiotics. Once introduced to a shrimp population, viruses can wipe out entire farms and shrimp populations, even with intense probiotic applications.

 

Our primary solution against infectious agents is our “Vibrio Suppression Technology.” This technology utilizes electrocoagulation (a procedure that uses heat from an electric current to destroy abnormal tissue) to kill potential pathogens and harmful bacteria such aa vibrio. While bacteria and other pathogens can still survive using this technology, Vibrio Suppression Technology helps to significantly reduce and suppress harmful organisms that usually cause “BioFloc” and other enclosed technologies to fail. Based on several peer-reviewed studies as well as management’s experience with this technology, we believe that this system creates higher sustainable densities, consistent production, improved growth and survival rates, and improved food conversion without the use of antibiotics, probiotics, or unhealthy anti-microbial chemicals.

 

Our technology platforms combine electrocoagulation and Hydrogas. Our patented electrocoagulation system replaces the need for biofilters and instead applies non-biological, electrical processes and uses electronics to remove ammonia and to control the level of pathogens in an aquaculture system. These technologies generate water chemistry with antioxidant properties, as demonstrated by third-party studies and our own trial conducted on North Atlantic Salmon at the RASLab research facility in Norway in 2021. The findings showed an increase in the well-being of aquatic species, including enhanced growth rates.

Hydrogas technology is based on a reducing gas that is produced on demand and infused into an aquaculture water column. The gas lowers the Oxidation Reduction Potential (“ORP”) of water to a negative reading on an ORP meter. Negative ORP refers to the water’s ability to either gain or lose electrons, acting as a measure of its reduction or oxidation capacity. When water has a negative ORP, it is more prone to gaining electrons, indicating a higher reduction potential. The more negative the ORP value of the water column, the stronger the reduction capacity, effects of which have been shown to have benefit within the aquaculture industry. The use of negative ORP water in recirculating aquaculture systems can have several beneficial effects on the animals and their environment such as lowering of the oxidation stress on the animals leading to better food conversion rates.

 

We have conducted several internal tests over a period of two years with finfish and shrimp, where we observed decreased mortality rates in the test groups utilizing the Hydrogas system.

 

The use of electrocoagulation in Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS) plays a pivotal role in achieving higher sustainable densities. This technology utilizes an electrical current to coagulate particulates, bacteria, and other pollutants, leading to their precipitation out of the water column. By removing these harmful elements, the water quality is significantly improved, which in turn can support higher densities of animals without compromising their health and well-being. Furthermore, by reducing the bacterial load in the water, such as harmful Vibrio species, the overall health and immunity of the aquaculture species can be boosted, resulting in lower disease incidences and higher sustainable densities.

 

Maintaining a negative ORP water column using Hydrogas not only aids in consistent production but also improves food conversion rates. A negative ORP signifies a reducing environment, which is beneficial for lowering the oxidative stress on the animals, leading to better food conversion rates. Moreover, the constant removal of harmful substances and bacteria from the water ensures a stable, high-quality environment for the cultured species, leading to consistent growth rates and production. Thus, through the combined benefits of improved water quality, enhanced health, and optimized nutrient utilization, electrocoagulation with a negative ORP water column serves as a valuable tool for sustainable and efficient aquaculture systems.

 

The principal theories behind the Company’s system are characterized as:

 

  High-density shrimp production
     
  Weekly production
     
  Natural ecology system
     
  Regional production
     
  Regional distribution

 

These principles form the foundation for the Company and our potential distributors so that consumers can be provided with continuous volumes of live and fresh shrimp at competitive prices.

 

Research and Development; Evolution of Our Technology

 

In 2001, we began research and development of a high density, natural aquaculture system that is not dependent on ocean water to provide quality, fresh shrimp every week, 52 weeks a year. Our initial system was successful, but we determined that it would not be economically feasible due to high operating costs. Over the next several years, using the knowledge we gained from developing the first system, we developed a shrimp production system that eliminated the high costs associated with the previous system. We have continued to refine this technology, eliminating bacteria and other problems that affect recirculating systems, and now have a successful shrimp-growing process. We have produced thousands of pounds of shrimp over the years in order to develop a design that will consistently produce quality shrimp that grow to a large size at a specific rate of growth. This included experimenting with various types of natural live and synthesized feed supplies before selecting the most appropriate nutritious and reliable combination. It also included utilizing monitoring and control automation equipment to minimize labor costs and to provide the necessary oversight for proper regulation of the shrimp environment.

 

Our system consists of a nursery tank where the shrimp are acclimated and then moved to a larger grow-out tank for the rest of the growth cycle. During 2016, we engaged in additional engineering projects with third parties to further enhance our indoor production capabilities. The Company, working with F&T, contracted with RGA Labs, Inc. to build and update a prototype of our patented electrocoagulation system for the grow-out and harvesting of fully mature, antibiotic-free Pacific White shrimp. The design provided a viable pathway to begin generating revenue and producing shrimp on a commercially-viable scale. During 2019 the Company decided to begin an approximately $2,000,000 facility renovation, demolishing the interior wood-lined tanks (720,000 gallons). The Company began replacing the previous tanks with 40 new fiberglass tanks (600,000 gallons) at a cost of approximately $400,000, allowing complete production flexibility with smaller tanks.

 

On March 18, 2020, our research and development plant in La Coste, Texas was destroyed by a fire. The Company believed that it was caused by a natural gas leak, but the fire was so extensive that the cause was never determined. No one was injured as a result of the fire. The majority of the damage was to our pilot production plant, which comprised approximately 35,000 square feet of the total size of the production facilities at the La Coste location, but the fire did not impact the separate greenhouse, reservoirs, or utility buildings. The Company used the proceeds from its subsequent insurance claim to rebuild a 40,000 square foot production building at the La Coste facility and to repurchase the equipment needed to replace what was lost in the fire. The Company further refined the electrocoagulation system for installation in the Texas and later in its Iowa shrimp production facilities. The Company began developing a live shrimp delivery system from the Iowa production facility in November 2021 and from the Texas production facility. In 2023, the Company changed the focus of the Texas facility into a research and development center.

Overview of Industry

 

Shrimp is a well-known and globally-consumed commodity, constituting one of the most important types of seafood and a staple protein source for much of the world. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the 2021 global production of shrimp was 9.9 billion pounds with over 1.9 billion pounds of shrimp consumed in the United States alone. Approximately 65% of the global supply of shrimp is caught by ocean trawlers and the other 35% is produced by open-air shrimp farms, mostly in developing countries.

 

Shrimp boats catch shrimp through the use of large, boat-towed nets. These nets are quite toxic to the undersea environment as they disturb and destroy ocean-bottom ecosystems; these nets also catch a variety of non-shrimp sea life, which is typically killed and discarded as part of the shrimp harvesting process. Additionally, the world’s oceans can only supply a finite amount of shrimp each year, and in fact, single-boat shrimp yields have fallen by approximately 20% since 2010 and continue to decrease. The shrimping industry’s answer to this problem has been to deploy more (and larger) boats that deploy ever-larger nets, which has in the short-term been successful at maintaining global shrimp yields. This benefit, however, cannot continue forever, as eventually global demand has the potential of outstripping the oceans’ ability to maintain the natural ecosystem’s balance, resulting in a permanent decline in yields. When taken in light of global population growth and the ever-increasing demand for nutrient-rich foods such as shrimp, this method is clearly an unsustainable production paradigm.

 

Shrimp farming, known in the industry as “aquaculture,” has ostensibly stepped in to fill this demand/supply imbalance. Shrimp farming is typically done in open-air lagoons and man-made shrimp ponds connected to the open ocean. Because these ponds constantly exchange water with the adjacent sea, the farmers are able to maintain the water chemistry that allows the shrimp to prosper. This method of cultivating shrimp, however, also carries severe ecological peril. First of all, most shrimp farming is primarily conducted in developing countries, where poor shrimp farmers have little regard for the global ecosystem. As a result, these farmers use large quantities of antibiotics and other chemicals that maximize each farm’s chance of producing a crop, putting the entire system at risk. For example, a viral infection that crops up in one farm can spread to all nearby farms, quite literally wiping out an entire region’s production. In 1999, the White Spot virus invaded shrimp farms in at least five Latin American countries: Honduras, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Panama, and Ecuador, and in 2013-14 Early Mortality Syndrome wiped out most of the shrimp yields in the Asia Pacific region and Mexico. Secondly, there is also a finite amount of coastline that can be used for shrimp production — eventually shrimp farms that are dependent on the open ocean will have nowhere to expand. Again, this method is also an ecologically damaging and ultimately unsustainable system for producing shrimp.

 

In both the cases, the current method of shrimp production is unsustainable. As global populations rise and the demand for shrimp continues to grow, the current system is bound to fall short. Shrimp trawling cannot continue to increase production without completely depleting the oceans’ natural shrimp population. Trends in per-boat yield confirm that this industry has already crossed the overfishing threshold, putting the global open-ocean shrimp population in decline. While open-air shrimp aquaculture may seem to address this problem, it is also an unsustainable system that destroys coastal ecological systems and produces shrimp with very high chemical contamination levels. Closed-system shrimp farming is clearly a superior alternative, but its unique challenges have prevented it from becoming a widely-available alternative.

 

Of the 1.9 billion pounds of shrimp consumed annually in the United States, over 1.5 billion pounds are imported — much of this from developing countries’ shrimp farms. These farms are typically located in developing countries and use high levels of antibiotics and pesticides that are not allowed under USDA regulations. As a result, these shrimp farms produce chemical-laden shrimp in an ecologically unsustainable way.

 

Unfortunately, most consumers in the United States are not aware of the origin of their store-bought shrimp or the shrimp that they consume in restaurants. This lack of knowledge is due to a USDA rule that states that only bulk-packaged shrimp must state the shrimp’s country of origin; any “prepared” shrimp, which includes arrangements sold in grocery stores and seafood markets, as well as all shrimp served in restaurants, can simply be sold “as is.” Essentially, the foregoing means that most U.S. consumers may be eating shrimp laden with chemicals and antibiotics. Our product is free of pesticide chemicals and antibiotics, a fact that we believe will be highly attractive and beneficial in terms of our eventual marketing success.

Our Products

 

Product Description

 

Most of the shrimp consumed in the world today come from shrimp farms that can only produce crops between one and four times per year. Consequently, the shrimp from these farms requires freezing between crops until consumed. Our system is designed to harvest different tanks each week, which provides for fresh shrimp throughout the year. We strive to create a niche market of “Always Fresh, Always Natural” shrimp. As opposed to many of the foreign shrimp farms, we can also claim that our product is 100% free of antibiotics. The ability to grow shrimp locally and year-round allows us to provide this high-end product to upscale restaurant and grocery stores throughout the world. The Company is currently selling live shrimp to grocery stores outlets in Chicago and to stores and restaurants in Texas. We rotate the stocking and harvesting of our tanks each week, which allows for weekly shrimp harvests. Our product is free of pollutants and is fed only the highest-quality feeds.

 

International

 

We own 100% of NS Global, which was formed to create international partnerships and licensing for our platform technologies. Each international partnership is expected to use the Company’s proprietary technology to penetrate shrimp markets throughout the world utilizing existing food service distribution channels.

 

Competition

 

There are a number of companies conducting research and development projects in their attempt to develop closed-system technologies in the U.S., some with reported production and sales. Most North American shrimp farms are using a BioFloc System to intensify shrimp growth. Since these are privately-held companies, it is not possible to know, with certainty, their state of technological development, production capacity, need for water exchange, location requirements, financial status, and other matters. To the best of our knowledge, none are producing significant quantities of shrimp relative to their local markets, and such fresh shrimp sales are likely confined to an area near their production facility.

 

Additionally, any new competitor would face significant barriers for entry into the market and would likely need years of research and development to develop the proprietary technology necessary to produce similar shrimp at a commercially viable level. It is possible that additional competitors will arise in the future, but with the size and growth of the worldwide shrimp market, we are confident that many competitors could co-exist and thrive in the fresh shrimp industry.

There are potential additional technical processes for which the Company may be able to file a patent. There are no assurances, however, that such applications, if filed, would be issued and no right of enforcement is granted to a patent application. Therefore, the Company plans to use a variety of other methods, including copyright registrations as appropriate, trade secret protection, and confidentiality and non-compete agreements to protect its intellectual property portfolio.

 

Source and Availability of Raw Materials

 

We receive necessary raw materials from established suppliers, generally in a timely manner. Currently, we buy our feed from Zeigler, a leading producer of aquatic feed. Post larvae shrimp are available from Sea Products Development in Texas and Homegrown Shrimp in Florida.

 

Notwithstanding our current relationship with our suppliers of Post Larvae (PLs) shrimp, we have previously experienced temporary shortages and delays as a result issues arising at their hatcheries. We have favorable contacts and past business dealings with other major shrimp feed producers from which we can purchase required raw materials if our current suppliers are not available. In addition, we have also experienced supply-chain problems that have restricted our access to needed equipment parts and supplies. However, we have been able to mitigate these issues by modifying off-the-shelf readily available parts and equipment to work within our system.

 

Government Approvals and Regulations

 

We are subject to government regulation and require certain licenses. The following list includes regulations to which we are subject and/or the permits and licenses we currently hold:

 

  Annual permit issued by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (“TCEQ”). TCEQ regulates facility wastewater discharge. The La Coste facility is rated Level 1 (Recirculation System with No Discharge). The Company’s technologies provide for zero discharge, which makes it much easier to locate production facilities in various locations having strict environmental requirements.
     
  The Company has applied to register the La Coste facility with the FDA in case the Company decides to process the shrimp in the future at this facility. However, the shrimp are currently delivered heads-on with no processing.
     
  The Company has applied to register the facility in Webster City, Iowa with the FDA in case the Company decides to process the shrimp in the future at this facility. However, the shrimp are currently delivered heads-on with no processing.
     
  Annual aquaculture license issued by Iowa Department of Natural Resources in respect of the Webster City, Iowa facility to produce shrimp in Iowa.

 

We are subject to certain regulations regarding the need for field employees to be certified. We strictly adhere to these regulations. The cost of certification is an accepted part of expenses. Regulations may change and become a cost burden, but compliance and safety are our main concern.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

 

Risk management and strategy

 

Management of material risks from cybersecurity threats is integrated into the Company’s overall risk management processes and is monitored as an enterprise risk. To that extent, the Company has engaged with a third-party service provider, DATAECON, in order to help manage its ongoing cybersecurity risk. This includes processes that are put in place to oversee and identify risks from cybersecurity threats associated with its use of any third-party service provider.

 

During our fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 , the email of one of our executive officers was hacked by an unknown third party. Utilizing the hacked email of our executive officer, the unknown third party requested a $100,000 payment from one of our investors. In response to the email, the investor wired the $100,000 payment to a bank account provided in the email. The investor funds were not recovered, and the Company was required to make certain restitution to the investor (via the issuance of common shares). As a result of the incident, the Company engaged with DATAECON in order to reduce the potential of such cybersecurity risks going forward.

 

Governance

 

While the board of directors does not have any formal oversight of risks from cybersecurity threats, it is important to note that our board of directors is comprised solely of Messrs. Easterling, Delgado and Untermeyer. As such, pursuant to the information provided below, all risks from cybersecurity threats our immediately shared with the board of directors.

 

Our chief technology officer (the “CTO”), Tom Untermeyer, is responsible for managing the Company’s cybersecurity risk. Mr. Untermeyer has served as the Company’s CTO since 2015. His business experience includes systems engineering, program development and technical management. Further, Mr. Untermeyer holds a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from St. Mary’s University. As NaturalShrimp is a small company with a limited number of employees, any cybsecurity threat or incident is immediately brought to the attention of Mr. Untermeyer. Further, as noted above, Mr. Untermeyer will then immediately inform his fellow board members including Mr. Easterling and Mr. Delgado.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

Receivership

 

On September 4, 2024, Streeterville Capital, LLC, a Utah limited liability company, and Bucktown Capital, LLC, a Utah limited liability company (collectively, “Lenders”), filed a Verified Emergency Motion for Appointment of Receiver (the “Motion”) under Civil Case No. 240907138, in the District Court of Salt Lake County, Utah, against NaturalShrimp, Inc. (“NaturalShrimp”).

 

The Motion alleges, among other things, that NaturalShrimp has defaulted under the terms of its loan agreements with the Lenders. The Motion sought the appointment of a Receiver to immediately take control of NaturalShrimp’s assets to preserve the same.

 

An order was entered ex parte by the Utah State Court in the Receivership Case on September 9, 2024 granting the relief requested by Lenders. The Utah State Court duly appointed Amplēo Turnaround and Restructuring, LLC (the “Receiver”) as the receiver over NaturalShrimp’s assets. The Utah State Court’s order further scheduled a hearing to be held on September 17, 2024, on a preliminary injunction to address issues raised in the Motion.

 

On November 20, 2024, the Lenders and NaturalShrimp filed a Verified Amended and Stipulated Emergency Motion for Immediate Appointment of a Receiver in the Receivership Case.

 

On November 22, 2024, the Utah State Court entered an order granting the Stipulated Motion and appointed Receiver as the receiver over the assets of NaturalShrimp. Under the Amended Receivership Order, the Receiver is the receiver over the Receivership Entities’ assets.

 

On February 11, 2025, the Receiver filed a Motion for Approval to Sell Substantially all of the Receivership Entities’ Assets to Streeterville Captial, LLC and Bucktown Captial, LLC (or Their Designees) or Any Other Party With a Higher and Better Offer Free and Clear of All Liens, Interests, Claims, and Encumbrances (the “Sale Motion”) in the Receivership Case. The Sale Motion seeks the Utah State Court’s approval for the Receiver to sell substantially all of the Receivership Entities’ assets free and clear of all liens, interests, claims, and encumbrances to Streeterville and Bucktown Capital, through their designated entities, NaturalShrimp Farms, Inc. (“NV Purchaser”), a Nevada corporation, Iowa Shrimp Holdings, LLC (“IA Purchaser”), an Iowa limited liability company, Texas Shrimp Holdings, LLC (“TX Purchaser” or together with NV Purchaser and IA Purchaser, the “Purchasers”), a Texas limited liability company, for a roughly $35,703,789.87 credit bid (based on a secured and administrative claim basis) and $100,000 cash, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in that certain Asset Purchase Agreement (“APA”) between Trustee and Purchasers. The order to sell the assets was approved on March 30, 2025 and the title to the assets was transferred to the lenders on May 14, 2025. As part of the sale, the Company transferred its ownership rights to its fixed assets, patents and license agreements in exchange for the extinguishment of its outstanding debt to both Streeterville and Buckstown Capital. As of the date of the ownership transfer, the Company ceased its current business operations.

Overview

 

We were an aquaculture technology company that developed proprietary, patented platform technologies to allow for the production of aquatic species in an ecologically controlled, high-density, low-cost environment, and in fully contained and independent production facilities without the use of antibiotics or toxic chemicals.

 

We were incorporated in July 2008 and acquired substantially all of the assets of NSH, the company that developed the proprietary technology to grow and sell shrimp potentially anywhere in the world that is now the basis of our business. In 2015 NSH acquired 88.62% of the issued and outstanding shares of NaturalShrimp Common Stock, NSC and NS Global became our wholly-owned subsidiaries, and we changed our principal business to a global shrimp farming company.

 

On October 5, 2015, we formed NAS with F&T, the purpose of which was to jointly develop with F&T certain water technologies.

 

On December 17, 2020, we acquired for $10.0 million certain assets from VeroBlue Farms USA, Inc. and its subsidiaries, which assets included our three current facilities located in Iowa.

 

On May 25, 2021, we purchased certain parent and intellectual property rights from F&T and acquired all of its outstanding shares in NAS, thereby making NAS our wholly-owned subsidiary, for $3.0 million in cash and 13,861,386 shares of NaturalShrimp Common Stock.

 

On August 25, 2021, through NAS, we entered into an Equipment Rights Agreements with Hydrenesis-Delta Systems, LLC and a Technology Rights Agreement with Hydrenesis Aquaculture LLC. The Equipment Rights Agreement relates to specialized and proprietary equipment used to produce and control, dose, and infuse Hydrogas® and RLS® into both water and other chemical species, while the Technology Rights Agreement provides us with a sublicense to the rights to Hydrogas® and RLS®.

 

The Company has three wholly-owned subsidiaries: NSC, NS Global, and NAS, and owns 51% of NaturalShrimp/Hydrenesis LLC, a Texas limited liability company.

 

During September of 2024, Ampleo Turnaround and Restructuring, LLC was placed as the receiver over the Company’s. Further, during February of 2025, the receiver submitted a motion to sell substantially all of the Company’s assets to Streeterville and Bucktown Capital for an approximate credit bid of $35.7 million and $100,000 in cash. The motion to sell was approved by the court on March 30, 2025. The Company believes that it continued to function as a going concern until the date of the approved sale. As such, the Company has presented going concern financial statements as of March 30, 2025 and for the period from April 1, 2024 through March 30, 2025. Furthermore, in accordance with ASC 205-30, Liquidation Basis of Accounting, the Company has presented its financial statements (using a convenience date) as of March 31, 2025 under the liquidation basis of accounting. As such, the financial statements included in the filing also include a Statement of Net Liabilities in liquidation as of March 31, 2025. As there was only a one-day period between the time liquidation became imminent and the end of the reporting period, a Statement of Changes in Net Assets (liabilities) in liquidation has not been provided.

 

Results of Operations

 

As discussed above, the Company ceased being a going concern on March 30, 2025 and, subsequent to that date, began applying the liquidation basis of accounting. As such, the Company believes that a discussion of its results of operations, whether that includes i) comparing the liquidation basis period to the going concern period or ii) comparing the going concern period ended March 30, 2025 to the prior year period ended March 31, 2024 would not be informative.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

At March 31, 2025, we had cash on hand of $101,969. As discussed in the filing, the Company has liquidated its primary operating assets in order to settle its outstanding debt with Streeterville and Buckstown Capital. At the time of this filing, the Company does not have a finalized plan regarding the settlement of its remaining outstanding liabilities or an exact timeline regarding its liquidation process.

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

Fair Value Measurement

 

The fair value measurement guidance clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in the valuation of an asset or liability. It establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under the fair value measurement guidance are described below:

 

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities;

 

Level 2 - Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; or

 

Level 3 - Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

 

The derivative and warrant liabilities are Level 3 fair value measurements.

 

Liquidation Basis of Accounting

 

In accordance with ASC 205-30, Liquidation Basis of Accounting, the Company will prepare its financial statements using the liquidation basis of accounting when liquidation is imminent. Liquidation is considered imminent when either of the following occurs-i) A plan for liquidation has been approved by the person or persons with the authority to make such a plan effective, and the likelihood is remote that either execution of the plan will be blocked by other parties or the entity will return from liquidation and ii) A plan for liquidation is imposed by other forces, and the likelihood is remote that the entity will return from liquidation.

 

When using the liquidation basis of accounting, the Company will i) recognize other items that is previously had not recognized but it expects to sell in liquidation or use to settle liabilities ii) accrue costs and income that it expects to incur or earn through the end of its liquidation if and when it has a reasonable basis for estimation iii) measure its assets to reflect the estimated amount of cash or other consideration that it expects to collect in settling or disposing of those assets in carrying out its plan for liquidation and iv) measure its liabilities in accordance with the measurement provision of other topics that it would otherwise apply to those liabilities.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

 

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation and subject to the foregoing, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below.

 

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our consolidated financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Material Weakness in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2025 based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on this assessment, management has determined that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2025 was not effective. Management realized that there were deficiencies in the design or operation of our internal control over financial reporting that adversely affected it and that management considers to be material weaknesses. Such material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting have not been remedied.

 

The ineffectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting was due to the following material weaknesses, which are indicative of many small companies with small number of staff:

 

Inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives;
Lack of independent board of directors (as of the balance sheet date) and absence of an audit committee to exercise oversight responsibility related to financial reporting and internal control;
Lack of risk assessment procedures on internal controls to detect financial reporting risks in a timely manner; and
Lack of documentation on policies and procedures that are critical to the accomplishment of financial reporting objectives.

 

Management continues to implement measures designed to ensure that control deficiencies contributing to the material weakness are remediated, such that these controls are designed, implemented, and operating effectively.

 

The remediation actions planned include:

 

Identify gaps in our skills base and the expertise of our staff required to meet the financial reporting requirements of a public company;
Establish an independent board of directors and an audit committee (which the company intends to implement at the time of the completion of the Business Combination) to provide oversight for remediation efforts and ongoing guidance regarding accounting, financial reporting, overall risks and the internal control environment;
Retain additional accounting personnel with public company financial reporting, technical accounting, SEC compliance, and strategic financial advisory experience to achieve adequate segregation of duties; and
Continue to develop formal policies and procedures on accounting and internal control over financial reporting and monitor the effectiveness of operations on existing controls and procedures.

 

Our management will continue to monitor and evaluate the relevance of our risk-based approach and the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and is committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report, which may increase the risk that weaknesses or deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting go undetected.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Risk Management Considerations

 

We believe that our compensation policies and practices for our employees, including our executive officers, do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

As a result of the transaction, NSH acquired 88.62% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, NSC and NS Global became wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company, and the Company changed its principal business to a global shrimp farming company. It changed its name to “NaturalShrimp Incorporated” in 2015.

 

There were no material relationships between the Company and NSH or between the Company’s or NSH’s respective affiliates, directors, or officers or associates thereof, other than in respect of the asset acquisition and the related asset purchase agreement.

 

On January 1, 2016 the Company entered into a notes payable agreement with NaturalShrimp Holdings, Inc.(“NSH”), a shareholder. The note payable has no set monthly payment or maturity date with a stated interest rate of 2%. During the year ended March 31, 2022, the Company paid off $655,750 of the note payable. The outstanding balance was approximately $79,000 and $77,000 as of March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, respectively. As March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, accrued interest payable was approximately $93,000 and $74,000, respectively.

 

Director Independence

 

Our board of directors consists of Gerald Easterling, William Delgado and Tom Untermeyer. We evaluate independence by the standards for director independence established by applicable laws, rules, and listing standards including, without limitation, the standards for independent directors established by NYSE, Nasdaq, and the SEC.

 

Subject to some exceptions, these standards generally provide that a director will not be independent if: (i) the director is, or in the past three years has been, an employee of ours; (ii) a member of the director’s immediate family is, or in the past three years has been, an executive officer of ours; (iii) the director or a member of the director’s immediate family has received more than $120,000 per year in direct compensation from us other than for service as a director (or for a family member, as a non-executive employee); (iv) the director or a member of the director’s immediate family is, or in the past three years has been, employed in a professional capacity by our independent public accountants, or has worked for such firm in any capacity on our audit; (v) the director or a member of the director’s immediate family is, or in the past three years has been, employed as an executive officer of a company where one of our executive officers serves on the compensation committee; or (vi) the director or a member of the director’s immediate family is an executive officer of a company that makes payments to, or receives payments from, us in an amount which, in any twelve-month period during the past three years, exceeds the greater of $1,000,000 or two percent of that other company’s consolidated gross revenues. Based on these standards, we have determined that Messrs. Easterling, Untermeyer and Delgado are not independent directors.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Directors

and Stockholders of NaturalShrimp Incorporated

 

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of NaturalShrimp Incorporated. and subsidiary (collectively, the “Company”) as of March 31, 2025, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the year then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

Going Concern and Liquidation Basis of Accounting

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of March 30, 2025 have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As such, the Company has presented going concern financial statements as of March 30, 2025 and for the period from April 1, 2024 through March 30, 2025. Furthermore, in accordance with ASC 205-30, Liquidation Basis of Accounting, the Company has presented its financial statements (using a convenience date) as of March 31, 2025 under the liquidation basis of accounting.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

Critical Audit Matters

 

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

 

Going Concern – As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, due to the Company’s significant amount of debt that was in default as of September 30, 2024, Ampleo Turnaround and Restructuring, LLC (“the receiver”) was placed as the receiver over the Company’s assets. Further, the receiver filed a motion to sell substantially all of the Company’s assets to Streeterville and Bucktown Capital for an approximate credit bid of $35.7 million and $100,000 in cash. The motion to sell the assets was approved by the court on March 30, 2025 and title to the assets was transferred to Streeterville on May 14, 2025. The Company believes that it continued to function as a going concern until the date that the motion to sell its assets was approved by the court on March 30, 2025 at which point liquidation became imminent. As such, the Company has presented going concern financial statements as of March 30, 2025 and for the period from April 1, 2024 through March 30, 2025. Furthermore, in accordance with ASC 205-30, Liquidation Basis of Accounting, the Company has presented its financial statements (using a convenience date) as of March 31, 2025 under the liquidation basis of accounting. As such, the financial statements included in the filing also include a Statement of Net Liabilities in liquidation as of March 31, 2025. As there was only a one-day period between the time liquidation became imminent and the end of the reporting period, a Statement of Changes in Net Assets (liabilities) in liquidation has not been presented

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF THE ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

 

Nature of the Business

 

NaturalShrimp Incorporated (“NaturalShrimp” or the “Company”), a Nevada corporation, is a biotechnology company and has developed a proprietary technology that allows it to grow Pacific White shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei, formerly Penaeus vannamei) in an ecologically controlled, high-density, low-cost environment, and in fully contained and independent production facilities. The Company’s system uses technology which allows it to produce a naturally-grown shrimp “crop” weekly and accomplishes this without the use of antibiotics or toxic chemicals. The Company has developed several proprietary technology assets, including a knowledge base that allows it to produce commercial quantities of shrimp in a closed system with a computer monitoring system that automates, monitors and maintains proper levels of oxygen, salinity and temperature for optimal shrimp production.

 

The Company has three wholly-owned subsidiaries including NaturalShrimp USA Corporation (“NSC”) and NaturalShrimp Global, Inc. (“NS Global”) and Natural Aquatic Systems, Inc. (“NAS”), and owns 51% of NaturalShrimp/Hydrenesis LLC, a Texas limited liability company.

 

Receivership and Liquidation

 

On September 4, 2024, Streeterville Capital, LLC, a Utah limited liability company, and Bucktown Capital, LLC, a Utah limited liability company (collectively, “Lenders”), filed a Verified Emergency Motion for Appointment of Receiver (the “Motion”) under Civil Case No. 240907138, in the District Court of Salt Lake County, Utah, against NaturalShrimp, Inc. (“NaturalShrimp”).

 

The Motion alleges, among other things, that NaturalShrimp has defaulted under the terms of its loan agreements with the Lenders. The Motion sought the appointment of a Receiver to immediately take control of NaturalShrimp’s assets to preserve the same.

 

An order was entered ex parte by the Utah State Court in the Receivership Case on September 9, 2024 granting the relief requested by Lenders. The Utah State Court duly appointed Amplēo Turnaround and Restructuring, LLC (the “Receiver”) as the receiver over NaturalShrimp’s assets. The Utah State Court’s order further scheduled a hearing to be held on September 17, 2024, on a preliminary injunction to address issues raised in the Motion.

 

On November 20, 2024, the Lenders and NaturalShrimp filed a Verified Amended and Stipulated Emergency Motion for Immediate Appointment of a Receiver in the Receivership Case.

 

On November 22, 2024, the Utah State Court entered an order granting the Stipulated Motion and appointed Receiver as the receiver over the assets of NaturalShrimp. Under the Amended Receivership Order, the Receiver is the receiver over the Receivership Entities’ assets.

 

On February 11, 2025, the Receiver filed a Motion for Approval to Sell Substantially all of the Receivership Entities’ Assets to Streeterville Captial, LLC and Bucktown Captial, LLC (or Their Designees) or Any Other Party With a Higher and Better Offer Free and Clear of All Liens, Interests, Claims, and Encumbrances (the “Sale Motion”) in the Receivership Case. The Sale Motion seeks the Utah State Court’s approval for the Receiver to sell substantially all of the Receivership Entities’ assets free and clear of all liens, interests, claims, and encumbrances to Streeterville and Bucktown Capital, through their designated entities, NaturalShrimp Farms, Inc. (“NV Purchaser”), a Nevada corporation, Iowa Shrimp Holdings, LLC (“IA Purchaser”), an Iowa limited liability company, Texas Shrimp Holdings, LLC (“TX Purchaser” or together with NV Purchaser and IA Purchaser, the “Purchasers”), a Texas limited liability company, for a roughly $35,703,789.87 credit bid (based on a secured and administrative claim basis) and $100,000 cash, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in that certain Asset Purchase Agreement (“APA”) between Trustee and Purchasers. The order to sell the assets was approved on March 30, 2025 and the title to the assets was transferred to the lenders on May 14, 2025.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”). The Company has presented going concern financial statements as of March 30, 2025 and for the period from April 1, 2024 through March 30, 2025. The comparative period has not been presented as the Company does not believe it would be required based on the guidance outlined in ASC 205-30, Liquidation Basis of Accounting. As of March 31, 2025, which is the (convenience) date that the Company’s liquidation became imminent, the Company has presented its financial statements under the liquidation basis of accounting. As such, the Company has presented a consolidated statement of net liabilities in liquidation as of March 31, 2025. As there was only a single day between the time that liquidation became imminent and the end of the reporting period, no consolidated statement of changes in net liabilities in liquidation has been presented.

 

Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NaturalShrimp Incorporated and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, NaturalShrimp USA Corporation, NaturalShrimp Global and NAS, and the 51% ownership of NaturalShrimp/Hydrenesis LLC. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

Preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Liquidation Basis of Accounting

 

In accordance with ASC 205-30, Liquidation Basis of Accounting, the Company will prepare its financial statements using the liquidation basis of accounting when liquidation is imminent. Liquidation is considered imminent when either of the following occurs-i) A plan for liquidation has been approved by the person or persons with the authority to make such a plan effective, and the likelihood is remote that either execution of the plan will be blocked by other parties or the entity will return from liquidation and ii) A plan for liquidation is imposed by other forces, and the likelihood is remote that the entity will return from liquidation.

 

When using the liquidation basis of accounting, the Company will i) recognize other items that it previously had not recognized but it expects to sell in liquidation or use to settle liabilities ii) accrue costs and income that it expects to incur or earn through the end of its liquidation if and when it has a reasonable basis for estimation iii) measure its assets to reflect the estimated amount of cash or other consideration that it expects to collect in settling or disposing of those assets in carrying out its plan for liquidation and iv) measure its liabilities in accordance with the measurement provision of other topics that it would otherwise apply to those liabilities.

 

Basic and Diluted Earnings/Loss per Common Share

 

Basic and diluted earnings or loss per share (“EPS”) amounts in the consolidated financial statements are computed in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 260 – 10 “Earnings per Share”, which establishes the requirements for presenting EPS. Basic EPS is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted EPS is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and dilutive common stock equivalents. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income or loss available to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS is not presented in periods where the Company recognizes a net loss as it would be considered anti-dilutive. Further, preferred dividends are subtracted from net income (loss) in the period in arriving at net income (loss) available to common stockholders.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement”, requires that certain financial instruments be recognized at their fair values at our balance sheet dates. However, other financial instruments, such as debt obligations, are not required to be recognized at their fair values, but GAAP provides an option to elect fair value accounting for these instruments. GAAP requires the disclosure of the fair values of all financial instruments, regardless of whether they are recognized at their fair values or carrying amounts in our balance sheets. For financial instruments recognized at fair value, GAAP requires the disclosure of their fair values by type of instrument, along with other information, including changes in the fair values of certain financial instruments recognized in income or other comprehensive income. For financial instruments not recognized at fair value, the disclosure of their fair values is provided below under Financial Instruments.

 

Nonfinancial assets, such as property, plant and equipment, and nonfinancial liabilities are recognized at their carrying amounts in the Company’s balance sheets. GAAP does not permit nonfinancial assets and liabilities to be remeasured at their fair values. However, GAAP requires the remeasurement of such assets and liabilities to their fair values upon the occurrence of certain events, such as the impairment of property, plant and equipment. In addition, if such an event occurs, GAAP requires the disclosure of the fair value of the asset or liability along with other information, including the gain or loss recognized in income in the period the remeasurement occurred.

 

F-8

 

 

The Company did not have any Level 1 or Level 2 assets and liabilities as of March 30, 2025 and March 31, 2024.

 

The warrant liabilities and Restructured notes are considered Level 3 fair value measurements.

 

The following is a summary of activity of Level 3 liabilities during the periods ended March 30, 2025 and March 31, 2024:

 

Warrant liability

 

   March 30, 2025 
Warrant liability balance at beginning of year  $24,000 
Change in fair value   (24,000)
Balance at end of year  $- 

 

During the period ended March 30, 2025, the Company’s shares ceased being quoted on the Over the Counter (“OTC”) market and technically had a fair value of $0. As such, the warrants were written down to $0.

 

Restructured August and Senior Notes Payable

 

   March 30, 2025 
Restructured notes payable fair value at beginning of year  $29,760,000

F-9

 

 

On November 4, 2022, when the Company entered into a Restructuring Agreement for an Amended and Restated Secured Promissory Note for two of their outstanding debentures, which were accounted for as debt extinguishment, the Company elected to recognize the new debt under ASC 825 fair value option. The fair value is based on the maturity dates, the interest of 12%, the 15% exit fee, the 2% appreciation fee for an estimated period, and a 45% present value factor as of March 30, 2025. In accordance with ASC 825, the Company chose to present the component for the accrued interest in the same line item on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet with the fair value option, and as of April 1, 2023, reclassed the accrued interest to not be presented as a separate line item. The notes were extinguished subsequent to the balance sheet date as part of the liquidation process.

 

Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, payables, and debt and are accounted for under the provisions of ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments”. The carrying amount of these financial instruments, with the exception of the restructured debt, as reflected in the consolidated balance sheets approximates fair value.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For the purpose of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of March 31, 2025.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company maintains cash balances at two financial institutions. Accounts at this institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000. As of March 31, 2025, the Company’s cash balance did not exceed FDIC coverage. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and periodically evaluates the credit worthiness of the financial institutions and has determined the credit exposure to be negligible.

 

Fixed Assets

 

Equipment is carried at historical value or cost and is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Estimated useful lives are as follows:

 

Buildings   39 years 
Machinery and Equipment   710 years 
Vehicles   10 years 
Furniture and Fixtures   310 years 

 

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. At the time of retirement or other disposition of equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation will be removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss, if any, will be reflected in operations.

 

Income Taxes

 

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

 

In addition, the Company’s management performs an evaluation of all uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company’s income tax returns to determine whether the income tax positions meet a “more likely than not” standard of being sustained under examination by the applicable taxing authorities. This evaluation is required to be performed for all open tax years, as defined by the various statutes of limitations, for federal and state purposes.

 

F-10

 

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to employees and non-employees in accordance with ASC 718. “Stock-based Compensation to Employees” is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite employee service period. The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based payments using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model for common stock options and warrants and the closing price of the Company’s common stock for common share issuances. Once the stock is issued the appropriate expense account is charged.

 

Intangible Assets

 

The Company has intangible assets, which were acquired in a patent acquisition, and license rights agreements. The Company’s patents represent definite lived intangible assets and will be amortized over the twenty-year duration of the patent, unless at some point the useful life is determined to be less than the protected life of the patent. The Company’s license rights will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected term of the agreements of ten years.

 

On May 19, 2021, the Company entered into a Patents Purchase Agreement (the “Patents Agreement”) with F&T Water Solutions, LLC (“F&T”). The Company and F&T had previously jointly developed and patented a water treatment technology used or useful in growing aquatic species in re-circulating and enclosed environments (the “Patent”) with each party owning a fifty percent (50%) interest. Upon the closing of the Patents Agreement, the Company purchased F&T’s interest in the Patent, F&T’s 100% interest in a second patent associated with the first Patent issued to F&T in March 2018, and all other intellectual property rights owned by F&T for a purchase price of $2,000,000 in cash and issue 9,900,990 shares of the Company’s common stock with a market value of $0.505 per share for a total fair value of $5,000,000, for a total acquisition price of $7,000,000. Amortization expense was $390,000 for the period ended March 30, 2025.

 

On August 25, 2021, the Company, through its 100% owned subsidiary NAS, entered into an Equipment Rights Agreements with Hydrenesis-Delta Systems, LLC (“Hydrenesis-Delta”) and a Technology Rights Agreement (“Rights”), in a sub-license agreement with Hydrenesis Aquaculture LLC (“Hydrenesis-Aqua”). Both Rights agreements are for a 10-year term, which shall automatically renew for ten-year successive terms. The agreements accord the exclusive rights to purchase or distribute the technology, or buy or rent the equipment, which is the primary business and revenue stream generated from indoor aquaculture farming of any species in the territory, which will be named the NSI Technologies and Equipment (“NSI Technologies”).

 

The terms of the Agreements set forth that NAS will pay Hydrenesis 12.5% royalty fees. The royalties are calculated per all customer or sub-license revenue generated by NAS, NSI or any affiliate, from the sale or rental of either the Technologies or Hydrenesis Equipment, based on gross revenue less returns, rebates and sales taxes. There are sales milestones for exclusivity, whereby if NAS fails to achieve a sales milestone starting in Year 3, the exclusivity rights in both of the Rights agreements shall revert to non-exclusive rights. To maintain the exclusivity for the subsequent year, the Company may pay the amount of the royalty fees that would have been due if the Sales Milestones had been met in the current year.

 

The Sales Milestones are:

 

Year 4  $ 375,000 Royalty 
Year 5  $ 625,000 Royalty 
Year 6  $ 875,000 Royalty 
All subsequent years  $ 1,000,000 Royalty 

 

For the period ended March 30, 2025, the amortization of the Rights was $1,080,000.

 

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

The Company will periodically evaluate the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used when events and circumstances warrant such a review and at least annually. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired when the anticipated undiscounted cash flow from such asset is separately identifiable and is less than its carrying value. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived asset. Fair value is determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. Losses on long-lived assets to be disposed of are determined in a similar manner, except that fair values are reduced for the cost to dispose.

 

Commitments and Contingencies

 

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the consolidated financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management and its legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company’s legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

 

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed.

 

Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the nature of the guarantee would be disclosed.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as such, the Company records revenue when its customers obtain control of the promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company will sell primarily to food service distributors, as well as to wholesalers, retail establishments and seafood distributors.

 

F-11

 

 

To determine revenue recognition for the arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of Topic 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer by receipt of purchase orders and confirmations sent by the Company which includes a required line of credit approval process, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract which includes shipment of goods to the customer FOB shipping point or destination, (3) determine the transaction price which initiates with the purchase order received from the customer and confirmation sent by the Company and will include discounts and allowances by customer if any, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract which is the shipment of the goods to the customer and transaction price determined in step 3 above and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation which is when the Company transfers control of the goods to the customers by shipment or delivery of the products.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

As the Company is currently reporting under the liquidation basis of accounting, it does not believe that there are any recently issued accounting standards that would be material to its financial statements.

NOTE 3 – LIQUIDATION BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

 

During September of 2024, Ampleo Turnaround and Restructuring, LLC was placed as the receiver over the Company’s assets due to its significant outstanding debt. Subsequently, during February of 2025, the receiver filed a motion to sell all of the Company’s assets to Streeterville and Bucktown Capital for an approximate credit bid of $35.7 million and $100,000 in cash. The motion was approved by the court (overseeing the motion) on March 30, 2025 with title to the assets being transferred to the creditor on May 14, 2025. The Company believes that it continued to function as a going concern until the date the motion to sell its assets was approved by the court at which time its liquidation became imminent. As such, in accordance with ASC 205-30, the Company has presented going concern financial statements as of March 30, 2025 and for the period from April 1, 2024 through March 30, 2025. Comparative periods have not been provided as the Company does not believe they would be required under ASC 205-30. Furthermore, in accordance with the ASC subtopic, the Company has also presented a consolidated statement of net liabilities in liquidation using a convenience date of March 31, 2025. The statement of net liabilities in liquidation has been prepared using the liquidation basis of accounting. As there was only one day from the time that our liquidation became imminent and the end of the reporting period, no consolidated statement of changes in net liabilities in liquidation has been presented.

 

As part of the liquidation, the Company sold its revenue generating fixed assets and intangible assets on May 14, 2025 to two of its creditors (Streeterville and Buckstown) in exchange for the extinguishment of i) the restructured August and Senior notes ($33.1 million) and Buckstown line of credit ($2.7 million). As of the date of this filing, the Company had limited assets available and was therefore uncertain as to the manner by which it expects to settle our remaining outstanding liabilities. Furthermore, we are also uncertain about the expected date by which we expect to complete the liquidation.

 

Our consolidated statement of net liabilities in liquidation as of March 31, 2025 reflects the following:

 

No additional items were recognized, such as trademarks, that the Company might either sell in liquidation or use to settle its liabilities
Liabilities have been recognized in accordance with the recognition provisions of other topics that otherwise would apply to those liabilities
The intangible assets and fixed assets have been recognized based on a settlement amount equal to the credit bid of approximately $35,800,000.
No additional costs or income expected to be incurred or earned through the end of our liquidation have been accrued as the Company does not believe the amounts to be material

 

NOTE 4 – FIXED ASSETS

 

A summary of the fixed assets is as follows:

 

   March 30, 2025 
Land  $187,609 
Buildings   6,624,549 
Machinery and equipment   11,210,985 
Autos and trucks   188,415 
Fixed assets, gross   18,211,558 
Accumulated depreciation   (6,792,833)
Fixed assets, net  $11,418,724 

 

The consolidated statements of operations reflect depreciation expense of approximately $1,725,000 for the period ended March 30, 2025. Subsequent to year end, primarily all of the land, buildings and machinery and equipment were transferred to a lender as part of the liquidation process.

NOTE 7 – RESTRUCTURED NOTE PAYABLES

 

August Note Payable

 

The Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “SPA”) with an investor (the “Investor”) on August 17, 2022. Pursuant to the SPA, the Investor purchased a secured promissory note (the “Note”) in the aggregate principal amount totaling approximately $5,433,333. The Note has an interest rate of 12% per annum, with a maturity date nine months from the issuance date of the Note. The Note carried an original issue discount totaling $433,333 and a transaction expense amount of $10,000, both of which are included in the principal balance of the Note. On the closing date the Company received $1,100,000, with $3,900,000 put into escrow to be held until certain terms were to be met, which included $3,400,000 upon the completion of a successful uplist to NYSE or NASDAQ. The SPA includes a Security Agreement, whereby the note is secured by the collateral set forth in the agreement, covering all of the assets of the Company. All payments made by the Company under the terms in the note, including upon repayment of this Note at maturity, were subject to an exit fee of 15% of the portion of the outstanding balance being paid (the “Exit Fee”). As the Exit Fee is to be included in every settlement of the Note, an additional 15% of the principal balance, which totals $816,500, was recognized along with the principal balance, and offset by a contra account in a manner similar to a debt discount.

 

As soon as reasonably possible, the Company will cause the common stock to be listed for trading on either of (a) NYSE, or (b) NASDAQ (in either event, an “Uplist”). In the event the Company has not effectuated the Uplist by November 15, 2022, the then-current outstanding balance will be increased by 10%. Following the Uplist, while the Note is still outstanding, ten days after the Company may have a sale of any of its shares of common stock or preferred stock, there shall be a Mandatory Prepayment equal to the greater of $3,000,000 or thirty-three percent of the gross proceeds of the equity sale.

 

In conjunction with the Merger Agreement, entered into on October 24, 2022, with Yotta Acquisition Corporation (Note 13), on November 4, 2022, the Company entered into a Restructuring Agreement for an Amended and Restated Secured Promissory Note (the “August Note”), through which the August Note was amended and restated in its entirety. The Restructured August Note decreased the principal to $1,748,667, less an OID of $138,667, and the amount in escrow was returned to the investor, The Restructuring Agreement included key modifications, in which i) the Uplist terms were removed, ii) in the event that the closing of the Merger does not occur on or before December 31, 2022, the then-current Outstanding Balance will be increased by 2% and shall increase by 2% every 30 days thereafter until the closing or termination of the Merger Agreement, and iii) the outstanding balance of the Convertible Note may be increased by 5% to 15% upon the occurrence of an event of default or failure to obtain the Lender’s consent or notify the Lender for certain major equity related transactions (“Trigger Events”). The Merger had not yet closed, and therefore the 2% of the outstanding balance was increased as of June 30, 2023, in the amount of approximately $272,000. On July 20, 2023, the Company sent Yotta notice of the Company’s termination of the Merger Agreement. (See Note 13) On November 20, 2023, the maturity date was extended to June 30, 2024. The maturity date was further extended to August 15, 2024.

 

The Restructured August Note was analyzed under ASC 470-50 as to if the change in terms qualified as a modification or an extinguishment of the note . The changes in terms were considered an extinguishment as the present value of the cash flows under the terms of the new debt instrument was evaluated to be a substantial change, as over 10% difference from the present value of the remaining cash flows under the terms of the original instrument. As such, with the removal of the original note and its debt discount and accrued interest as compared to the restructured note with a fair value of approximately $1,933,000, there was a loss in extinguishment of approximately $157,000. As a result of the extinguishment and at the Company’s election of the fair value option under ASC 825, the August Note was accounted for at fair value until settlement. In accordance with ASC 815- 15-25-1(b) a hybrid instrument that is measured at fair value under ASC 825 fair value option each period with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur should not be evaluated for embedded derivatives. Therefore, the provisions in the August Note were not evaluated as to if they fell under the guidance of embedded derivatives and were required to be bifurcated. The August Note was revalued as of March 31, 2025 and March 30, 2025 at approximately $3,047,309, with a change in fair value of approximately $407,309 in the current year recognized in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations. Subsequent to the balance sheet date the outstanding balance was extinguished as part of the liquidation process.

Senior Note Payable

 

The Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “SPA”) with an investor (the “Investor”) on December 15, 2021. Pursuant to the SPA, the Investor purchased a secured promissory note (the “Note”) in the aggregate principal amount totaling approximately $16,320,000 (the “Principal Amount”). The Note has an interest rate of 12% per annum, with a maturity date 24 months from the issuance date of the Note (the “Maturity Date”).

 

Beginning on the date that is 6 months from the issuance date of the Note, the Investor had the right to redeem up to $1,000,000 of the outstanding balance per month. Payments could have been made by the Company, at the Company’s option, (a) in cash, or (b) by paying the redemption amount in the form of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), per the following formula: the number of redemption shares equals the portion of the applicable redemption amount divided by the Redemption Repayment Price. The “Redemption Repayment Price” equaled 90% multiplied by the average of the two lowest volume weighted average price per share of the Common Stock during the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the date that the Investor delivers notice electing to redeem a portion of the Note. The redemption amount shall include an Exit Fee, consisting of a premium of 15% of the portion of the outstanding balance being paid. As the Exit Fee is to be included in every settlement of the Note, an additional 15% of the principal balance, which totals $2,448,000, was recognized along with the principal balance, and offset by a contra account in a manner similar to a debt discount. In addition to the Investor’s right of redemption, the Company has the option to prepay the Notes at any time prior to the Maturity Date by paying a premium of 15% plus the principal, interest, and fees owed as of the prepayment date.

 

On November 4, 2022, the Company entered into a Restructuring Agreement for an Amended and Restated Secured Promissory Note (the “Senior Note”) with the December 2021 Investor through which the December 2021 Note was amended and restated in its entirety. These amendments were made in conjunction with the Merger Agreement, entered into on October 24, 2022, with Yotta Acquisition Corporation (Note 13), The main modification of the terms of the Senior Note was that the conversion feature was eliminated. Second, a Mandatory Payment was added whereby within 3 trading days of the closing upon the Merger an amount equal to the lesser of (A) one-third of the amount retained in the Trust Account at the Effective Time or (B) $10,000,000, in order to repay a portion of the outstanding balance of the Senior Note; after which the remaining balance of the Senior Note is to be repaid in equal monthly installments over a 12-month period beginning on a date after the Merger Agreement closing date (“Closing Date”) or the termination of such agreement. All payments made shall be subject to an Exit Fee of 15% of the portion of the outstanding balance being paid. Additionally, if the Closing Date is after December 31, 2022, the outstanding balance of all indebtedness owed by the Company to December 2021 Investor will be increased automatically by 2% and will automatically increase by 2% every 30 days thereafter until the Closing, a termination, or substantially similar terms as approved by the Board of Directors of the Company. Additional key modifications include i) uplist terms in which the Company was to cause the common stock to be listed for trading on either of (a) NYSE, or (b) NASDAQ, were removed, ii) Maturity date was modified from December 15, 2023 to 12 months from the Closing or termination of the Merger Agreement, provided not to be later than September 30, 2024, and iii) the outstanding balance of the Senior Note may be increased by 5% to 15% upon the occurrence of an event of default or failure to obtain the Lender’s consent or notify the Lender for certain major equity related transactions (“Trigger Events”). As of June 30, 2023, the Merger has not yet closed, and therefore the 2% of the outstanding balance was increased as of June 30, 2023, in the amount of approximately $2,675,000. On July 20, 2023, the Company sent Yotta notice of the Company’s termination of the Merger Agreement (See Note 13). Based on the termination in July of 2023, the equal monthly payments were to begin on September 20, 2023. On July 3, 2024, the Investor issued a waiver to the Company on the equal monthly payments, which are not currently required to be paid, through August 15, 2024.

 

The Note also contains certain negative covenants and Events of Default, which in addition to common events of default, include the Company fails to maintain the share reserve, the occurrence of a Fundamental Transaction without the Lenders written consent, the Company effectuates a reverse split of its common stock without 20 trading days written notice to Lender, fails to observe or perform or breaches any covenant, and, the Company or any of its subsidiaries, breaches any covenant or other term or condition contained in any Other Agreements in any material. Upon an Event of a Default, at its option and sole discretion, the Investor may consider the Note immediately due and payable. Upon such an Event of Default, the interest rate increases to 18% per annum and the outstanding balance of the Note increases from 5% to 15%, depending upon the specific Event of Default.

The Restructured Senior Note was analyzed under ASC 470-50 as to if the change in terms qualified as a modification or an extinguishment of the note. The changes in terms were considered an extinguishment as the conversion feature has been eliminated and therefore the modified Senior Note is determined to be fundamentally different from the original convertible note. As such, with the removal of the original note and its debt discount and accrued interest as compared to the restructured note with a fair value of approximately $18,914,000, there was a gain in extinguishment of approximately $2,540,000. As of the restructuring date the derivative had a fair value of $12,290,000, based on assumptions used in a bi-nomial option pricing model, which resulted in a change in fair value of $17,738,000 as of the restructuring date, from its previous fair value of $30,028,000. The key valuation assumptions used consist, in part, of the price of the Company’s common stock of $0.16 at issuance date; a risk-free interest rate of 3.73% and expected volatility of the Company’s common stock, of 117.77%, and the strike price of $0.1017.

 

As a result of the extinguishment and at the Company’s election of the fair value option under ASC 825, the Company will account for the Restructured Senior Note at fair value every period end until it is settled. In accordance with ASC 815- 15-25-1(b) a hybrid instrument that is measured at fair value under ASC 825 fair value option each period with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur should not be evaluated for embedded derivatives. Therefore, the Company did not evaluate the provisions in the Restructured Senior Note as to whether they fell under the guidance of embedded derivatives and were required to be bifurcated. The Restructured Senior Note was revalued as of March 31, 2025 and March 30, 2025 at approximately $30,091,000, with a change in fair value of approximately $2,971,000 recognized in the Company’s accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations. Subsequent to the balance sheet date the outstanding balance was extinguished as part of the liquidation process.

Series E Preferred Stock

 

On April 14, 2021, the Board authorized the issuance of 10,000 shares of the Company’s Series E Preferred Stock and has filed a Certificate of Designation (“COD”) of Preferences of the Series E Convertible Preferred Stock with the State of Nevada. The shares of Series E Preferred Stock have a stated value of $1,200 per share and are convertible into shares of common stock at the election of the holder of the Series E Preferred Stock at any time at a price of $0.35 per share, subject to adjustment (the “Conversion Price”). The Series E Preferred Stock is convertible into that number of shares of common stock determined by dividing the Series E Stated Value (plus any and all other amounts which may be owing in connection therewith) by the Conversion Price, subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations. Each holder of Series E Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, with respect to each share of Series E Preferred Stock then outstanding and held by such holder, dividends at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum, payable quarterly. Each share of Series E Preferred Stock shall be redeemed by the Company on the date that is no later than one calendar year from the date of its issuance. The Series E Preferred Stock are also redeemable at the Company’s option, at percentages ranging from 115% to 125% for the first 180 days, based on the passage of time. The holders of Series E Preferred Stock rank senior to the Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents (as defined in the Series E Designation) with respect to payment of dividends and rights upon liquidation and will vote together with the holders of the Common Stock on an as-converted basis, subject to beneficial ownership limitations, on each matter submitted to a vote of holders of Common Stock (whether at a meeting of shareholders or by written consent). Based upon a subsequent financing, the holder has the option to exchange (in lieu of conversion), all or some of the shares of Series E Preferred Stock then held for any securities or units issued in a subsequent financing on a $1.00 for $1.00 basis. In the event of a Fundamental Transaction, the holder has the option to request that the Company or the successor entity shall purchase the Preferred Stock from the Holder on the date of such request by paying to the Holder cash in an amount equal to the Black Scholes value. Upon any triggering event as set forth in the COD, including a change in control or the Company shall fail to have available a sufficient number of authorized and unreserved shares of common stock to issue to such holder upon a conversion, each holder shall have the right, exercisable at the sole option of such holder, to require the Company to redeem all of the Series E Preferred Stock then held by such holder for a redemption price, in cash, equal to the Triggering Redemption Amount (150% of the Stated Value and all accrued but unpaid dividends and all liquidated damages, late fees and other costs), and increase the dividend rate on all of the outstanding Preferred Stock held by such Holder to 18% per annum thereafter. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, the holders shall be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Company an amount equal to the stated value, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends and any other fees or liquidated damages then due and owing for each share of Preferred Stock, before any distribution or payment shall be made to the holders of any Junior Securities, and if the assets of the Corporation shall be insufficient to pay in full such amounts, then the entire assets to be distributed to the holders shall be ratably distributed among the holders in accordance with the respective amounts that would be payable on such shares if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full.

 

On November 22, 2021, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (“SPA”) for 1,500 shares of the Company’s Series E Preferred Stock, at a price of $1,000 per share and (ii) a warrant to purchase up to 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, with an exercise price equal to $0.75, which expires in five years, for a purchase price of $1,500,000. The warrant had a fair value of $561,000, estimated using the Black Scholes Model, with the following inputs: the price of the Company’s common stock of $0.38; a risk-free interest rate of 1.33%, the expected volatility of the Company’s common stock of 209.9%; the estimated remaining term, a dividend rate of 0%. The Company also issued 267,429 warrants as placement agent fees, with a fair value of $101,000, estimated with the same assumptions. All of the warrants were classified as a liability, as it is not known if there will be sufficient authorized shares to be issued upon settlement. The Company accreted the carrying value, reflecting the discount of $300,000 between the stated value and purchase price and the fair value of the warrants issued of $662,000, of the Series E Preferred Stock in temporary equity up to the redemption value over the period until its redemption which was fully accreted as of March 31, 2023.

 

On April 14, 2021, the Company, entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with a holder of the Series D Preferred Stock, whereby, at the closing of the Offering, the Holder agreed to exchange an aggregate of 3,600 shares of the Company’s Series D Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share into 3,739.63 shares of the Company’s Series E Convertible Preferred stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Series E Preferred Stock”). The exchange was completed on April 15, 2021.

 

On June 16, 2022, one of the holders of the Series E Convertible Preferred Stock chose to exercise their right, pursuant to the Certificate of Designation relating to the Series E Convertible Preferred Stock, to receive the rights extended to the convertible noteholder, of 90% multiplied by the average of the two lowest volume weighted average price per share of the Common Stock during the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion. As the exercise of the conversion price adjustment was similar to a down round, and the Company has not yet adopted ASU 2020-06, the accounting treatment of ASU 2017-11 was applied, whereby the adjustment was treated as a contingent beneficial conversion feature recognized as of the triggering date. As of June 16, 2022, this holder held 940 shares of the Series E preferred stock. The Company analyzed the conversion feature under ASC 470-20, “Debt with conversion and other options”, and based on the market price of the common stock of the Company as compared to the conversion price, determined there was a $99,000 beneficial conversion feature to recognize, which was fully amortized as there is no remaining redemption date to their Series E Preferred Stock. The additional rights of the convertible note which were applied include the 10% increase in the outstanding balance if an uplist to a national exchange was not consummated by the Company by March 1, 2022, for an increase of 130 Series E Preferred shares with a stated value of $156,000, as well as an exit fee of 15% to be recognized upon conversions of the Series E Preferred shares into shares of common stock. As of March 31, 2023, 170 shares of Series E Preferred Stock were outstanding to this holder.

During the year ended March 31, 2023, 1,300 shares of Series E Preferred Stock were converted into 14,458,127 shares of common stock. As of March 30, 2025 there were 1,571 shares of Series E Preferred Stock remaining outstanding.

 

On November 5, 2022, the Company entered a restructuring agreement with the Series E Preferred Stockholders, whereby the Series E Preferred Stock and the warrants outstanding as of the Closing date shall have their terms adjusted. The outstanding warrants shall be a) cancelled in exchange for a cash payment equal to the fair value of the warrants based on the Black Scholes model, with the exercise price to be adjusted to equal 80% of the average volume weighted average price of the Company common stock during the five trading day period immediately prior to the Closing Date (the “Adjusted Exercise Price”); or (b) as of the Effective Time, canceled and treated as if exercised for that number of shares of the Company’s common stock calculated using the Black Scholes model fair value, the number of Warrant Shares on the Closing Date and the Adjusted Exercise Price, with the shares of the Company’s common stock that would have been due to Holder as a result of such exercise of the Warrant treated as if issued to Holder and then converted into the right to receive (i) the Closing Per Share Merger Consideration (as defined in the Merger Agreement) plus (ii) the Additional Per Share Merger Consideration (as defined in the Merger Agreement), if any, at the time and subject to the contingencies set forth in the Merger Agreement. For the Series E Preferred Stock that shall be outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, they shall be canceled and treated as if converted into that number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to (i) the stated value of $1,200 per share plus any unpaid dividends, multiplied by 1.25, divided by (ii) 80% of the average volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock during the five trading day period immediately prior to the Closing Date. The shares of the Company’s common stock that would have been due to the holder as a result of the conversion of such shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock shall be treated as issued to holder and converted, as of the Effective Time, into the right to receive (y) the Closing Per Share Merger Consideration plus (z) the Additional Per Share Merger Consideration, if any, at the time and subject to the contingencies set forth in the Merger Agreement. Due to the termination of the Merger Agreement (Note 13) this restructuring agreement is no longer effective.

 

On July 24, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement for the additional sale of 156 shares of Series E Preferred Stock at a price of $1,000 per share of Preferred Stock, for a total of $156,000. The Series E Preferred Stock will earn a dividend of 12% per annum, for as long as the relevant Preferred Stock has not been redeemed or converted. Dividends are to be paid quarterly, and at the Company’s discretion, in cash or Preferred Stock calculated at the purchase price.

 

For the period ended March 30, 2025, the accretion for the Series E Preferred Stock was $58,300.

 

On May 1, 2023, one of the holders converted 600 Series E Preferred Stock into 23,989,570 shares of common stock. The conversion represented their remaining Series E Preferred Stock outstanding as of that date, including the 10% increase, accrued dividends in kind of $516,000 and the 15% Exit Fee of $108,000.

 

Series G Preferred Stock

 

On December 1, 2023, the Board authorized the issuance of 10,000 preferred shares to be designated as Series G Preferred Stock (“Series G Preferred Stock”). The Series G Preferred Stock has a par value of $0.0001, a stated value of $1,200 and bear dividends at the rate of 8% per annum, payable quarterly, to be paid in cash or in-kind, at the discretion of the Company. The Series G Preferred Stock will vote together with the common stock on an as-converted basis subject to the beneficial ownership limitations. The Series G Preferred Stock is required to be redeemed by the Company no later than one calendar year from the date of its issuance. The Series G Preferred Stock is also redeemable at the option of the Company at any time after the original issued date, upon 3 business days’ notice, at a premium rate which is (a) 1.15 if all of the Series G Preferred Stock is redeemed within 90 calendar days from the issuance date thereof; (b) 1.2 if all of the Series G Preferred Stock is redeemed after 90 calendar days and within 120 calendar days from the issuance date thereof; (c) 1.25 if all of the Series G PS is redeemed after 120 calendar days and within 180 calendar days from the issuance date thereof. The Company shall be permitted to redeem the Series G Preferred Stock at any time in cash upon 3 business days prior notice to the Holder or the Holder may convert the Series G Preferred Stock within 3 business days period prior to redemption. The Holder shall have the right to either redeem for cash or convert the Series G Preferred Stock into common stock within 3 business days following the consummation of a qualified offering. The conversion price is based on the discounted market price which is the lower of: (i) A fixed price equaling the closing bid price for the common stock on the trading day preceding the execution of the SPA ; or (ii) 100% of the lowest volume weighted average price (“VWAP)” for the common stock during 10 trading days preceding the conversion request, subject to adjustment.

 

F-19

 

 

As the redemption feature is mandatorily redeemable within one year of the issuance date, with a substantive conversion option, the Series G Preferred Stock would not fall under liability classification but is to be classified as mezzanine equity.

GHS 2023 Purchase Agreement

 

On May 9, 2023, the Company entered into a purchase agreement (the “GHS 2023 Purchase Agreement”) with GHS pursuant which the Company may require GHS to purchase a maximum of up to 45,923,929 shares of the Company’s common stock (“GHS 2023 Purchase Shares”) based on a total aggregate purchase price of up to $6,000,000 over a one-year term that ends on May 9, 2024. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this offering for working capital and general corporate purposes.

 

The GHS 2023 Purchase Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in the agreement, the Company has the right from time to time during the term of the agreement, in its sole discretion, to deliver to GHS a purchase notice (a “Purchase Notice”) directing GHS to purchase (each, a “GHS Purchase”) a specified number of GHS 2023 Purchase Shares. A GHS Purchase will be made in a minimum amount of $10,000 and up to a maximum of $1,500,000 and provided that, the purchase amount for any purchase will not exceed 200% of the average of the daily trading dollar volume of the Company’s common stock during the 10 business days preceding the purchase date. Notwithstanding the foregoing dollar limitations, the Company and GHS may, from time to time, mutually agree (in writing) to waive the aforementioned limitations for a relevant Purchase Notice, which waiver, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not exceed the 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation contained in the GHS Purchase Agreement. The “Purchase Price” means, with respect to a purchase made pursuant to the GHS Purchase Agreement, 90% of the lowest VWAP (as defined in the GHS 2023 Purchase Agreement) during the Valuation Period (the ten (10) consecutive business days immediately preceding, but not including, the applicable purchase date). The Company shall deliver a number of GHS 2023 Purchase Shares equal to 112.5% of the aggregate purchase amount for such GHS Purchase divided by the Purchase Price per share for such GHS Purchase, against payment by GHS to the Company of the purchase amount with respect to such Purchase (less documented deposit and clearing fees, if any), as full payment for such GHS Purchase Shares via wire transfer of immediately available funds.

 

If there are any default events, as set forth in the GHS Purchase Agreement, has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall not deliver to GHS any Purchase Notice.

 

Further, pursuant to the terms of the GHS 2023 Purchase Agreement, from May 9, 2023 until the date that is the later of (i) the closing of the transactions whereby Yotta Merger Sub, Inc. will merge with and into the Company, with the Company as the surviving company (the “Merger”); and (ii) the 12 month anniversary of the initial closing pursuant to the Section 2(a) of GHS Purchase Agreement, upon any issuance by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents for cash consideration, indebtedness or a combination of units thereof (a “Subsequent Financing”), GHS shall have the right to participate in any financing, up to an amount of the Subsequent Financing equal to 100% of the Subsequent Financing (the “Participation Maximum”) on the same terms, conditions and price provided for in the Subsequent Financing. Following the Merger, the Participation Maximum shall be 50% of the Subsequent Financing.

 

In the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company sold 28,205,605 shares of common stock at a net amount of approximately $923,000, at share prices ranging from $0.03 to $0.04 related to the GHS 2023 Purchase Agreement.

NOTE 11 –INCOME TAXES

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740-10, which provides for an asset and liability approach of accounting for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on anticipated future tax consequences, using currently enacted tax laws, attributed to temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts calculated for income tax purposes.

 

The components of income tax expense for the year ended March 30, 2025 consisted of the following:

 

   2025 
Federal statutory rate   21.0%
State taxes, net of federal benefit   - 
Permanent differences   - 
Valuation allowance   (21.0)%
Effective rate   0.0%

 

F-24

 

 

Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets as of March 30, 2025 is summarized below.

 

   2025 
Deferred tax assets:     
Net operating loss carryforwards  $19,852,823 
Other   1,206,000 
Total deferred tax asset   21,058,823 
Valuation allowance   (21,058,823)
Total  $- 

 

As of March 31, 2025, the Company had approximately $94,527,729 of federal net operating loss carry forwards. The carry forwards beginning in tax years 2018 are allowed to be carried forward indefinitely and are to be limited to 80% of the taxable income. Future utilization of the net operating loss carry forwards is subject to certain limitations under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. The Company believes that the issuance of its common stock in exchange for Multiplayer Online Dragon, Inc. on January 30, 2015 resulted in an “ownership change” under the rules and regulations of Section 382. Accordingly, the Company’s ability to utilize their net operating losses generated prior to this date is limited to approximately $282,000 annually.

 

To the extent that the tax deduction is included in a net operating loss carry forward and is in excess of amounts recognized for book purposes, no benefit will be recognized until the loss carry forward is recognized. Upon utilization and realization of the carry forward, the corresponding change in the deferred asset and valuation allowance will be recorded as additional paid-in capital.

 

The Company provides for a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that it will not realize a portion of the deferred tax assets. The Company has established a valuation allowance against the net deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty that enough taxable income will be generated in those taxing jurisdictions to utilize the assets. Therefore, the Company has not reflected any benefit of such deferred tax assets in the accompanying financial statements. The Company’s net deferred tax asset and valuation allowance increased by $2,252,823 in the year ended March 31, 2025.

 

The Company reviewed all income tax positions taken or that they expect to be taken for all open years and determined that the income tax positions are appropriately stated and supported for all open years. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for tax years after 2017 due to unexpired net operating loss carryforwards originating in and subsequent to that year. The Company may be subject to income tax examinations for the various taxing authorities which vary by jurisdiction.

 

NOTE 12 – LEASE

 

On May 26, 2021, the Company entered into a sublease for a new office space in Texas, on two floors. The lease commenced on August 1, 2021 for a monthly rent of $7,000, and will terminate on October 31, 2025, for one of the spaces, and commence in the second half of 2022 for monthly rent of $1,727, and terminate on October 31, 2025, for the second space. On June 2, 2021, the Company paid a deposit of $52,362 which shall be applied to the last six months of the sublease term, and $17,454 security deposit, which is included in Prepaid expenses on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The Company assessed its new office lease as an operating lease.

 

At inception, on August 1, 2021, the ROU and lease liability was calculated as approximately $316,000, based on the net present value of the future lease payments over the term of the lease. When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease discount payments as the incremental borrowing rate to calculate the net present value; however, the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable for their corporate office lease. In this case, the Company estimated its incremental borrowing rate of 5.75% as the interest rate it could have incurred to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment on a collateralized basis over a term similar to the lease term . The Company estimated its rate based on observable risk-free interest rate and credit spreads for commercial debt of a similar duration as to what rate would have been effective for the Company.

On December 31, 2023, the Company moved to a new office space in Texas, and the sublease in effect was terminated.

 

On December 20, 2023, the Company entered into a sublease for a new office space in Texas, with a commencement date of January 1, 2024, which will terminate on March 31, 2027.

On December 19, 2023, the Company paid a $2,063 security deposit, which is included in Prepaid expenses on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The Company assessed its new office lease as an operating lease.

 

At inception, as of January 1, 2024, the ROU and lease liability was calculated as approximately $61,000, based on the net present value of the future lease payments over the term of the lease. When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease discount payments as the incremental borrowing rate to calculate the net present value; however, the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable for their corporate office lease. In this case, the Company estimated its incremental borrowing rate of 14.5% as the interest rate it could have incurred to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment on a collateralized basis over a term similar to the lease term. The Company estimated its rate based on observable risk-free interest rate and credit spreads for commercial debt of a similar duration as to what rate would have been effective for the Company.

 

On September 8, 2021, the Company entered into an equipment lease agreement for VOIP phone equipment. The lease term is for sixty months, with a monthly lease payment of approximately $300. The Company assessed the equipment lease as an operating lease. The Company determined the Right of Use asset and Lease liability values at inception as approximately $17,000 calculated at the present value of all future lease payments for the lease term, using an incremental borrowing rate of 5.75%.

 

All of the lease agreements were terminated subsequent to the balance sheet date.

 

NOTE 13 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Gary Shover

 

A shareholder of NaturalShrimp Holdings, Inc. (“NSH”), Gary Shover, filed suit against the Company on August 11, 2020 in the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division, alleging breach of contract for the Company’s failure to exchange common shares of the Company for shares Mr. Shover owns in NSH. On November 15, 2021, a hearing was held before the US District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division at which time Mr. Shover and the Company presented arguments as to why the Court should approve a joint motion for settlement. After considering the argument of counsel and taking questions from those NSH Shareholders who were present through video conferencing link, the Court approved the motion of the parties to allow Mr. Shover and all like and similarly situated NSH Shareholders to exchange each share of NSH held by a NSH Shareholder for a share of the Company. A final Order was signed on December 6, 2021 and the case was closed by an Order of the Court of the same date. The Company is to issue approximately 93 million shares in settlement, which as of December 6, 2021 was recognized as stock payable on the Company’s balance sheet, and its fair value of $29,388,000, based on the market value of the Company’s common shares of $0.316 on the date the case was closed, has been recognized in the Company’s statement of operations as legal settlement. As of March 31, 2022, 28,494,706 of the shares presented in Stock Payable have been issued, with the fair value of $9,415,950 reclassified out of Stock Payable. In the year ended March 31, 2023, an additional 61,558,203 of shares of common stock with a fair value of $19,445,284 were issued out of the Stock Payable. In the year ended March 31, 2024, an additional 863,110 of shares of common stock with a fair value of $272,743 were issued out of the Stock Payable.

 

Merger Agreement

 

On October 24, 2022, the Company entered into a Merger Agreement (as it may be amended, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Yotta Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Yotta”), and Yotta Merger Sub, Inc., a Nevada corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Yotta (“Merger Sub”). The Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Transactions”) were approved by the board of directors of each of the Company, Yotta, and Merger Sub.

 

The Merger Agreement provided, among other things, that Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company as the surviving company (the “Surviving Company”) in the merger and, after giving effect to such merger, the Company shall be a wholly-owned subsidiary of Yotta (the “Merger”). In addition, Yotta would be renamed “NaturalShrimp, Incorporated” or such other name as shall be designated by the Company. Other capitalized terms used, but not defined, herein have the respective meanings given to such terms in the Merger Agreement.

 

On July 20, 2023, the Company sent Yotta notice of the Company’s termination of the Merger Agreement pursuant to Section 10.2(b) thereof based on breaches by Yotta of certain representations in the Merger Agreement that would render impossible the satisfaction of certain conditions to the Company’s obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. In particular, Yotta will not be able to comply with the provision of its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation that prohibits Yotta from consummating an initial business combination unless it has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 upon consummation of such initial business combination. This conflicts with Yotta’s representation in the Merger Agreement that its consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement will not conflict with its organizational documents. The Company also cited delays in the SEC registration process that are attributable to Yotta, which breached its covenant pursuant to the Merger Agreement to use its reasonable best efforts to take all actions reasonably necessary or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by Merger Agreement as promptly as reasonably practicable. Per the Merger Agreement, if one of the parties validly terminates the Merger Agreement there will be a Breakup Fee of $3,000,000 to be paid to them by the other party. The Breakup Fee is not intended to be a penalty, but instead is liquidated damages to compensate the party which requests the termination, to not have any further liability with respect to the Merger Agreement. As of this filing date, Yotta has not responded to the Company’s notice of termination and the Company has not sought payment of the Breakup Fee beyond the July 20th notice.

 

F-26

 

 

As a result of the termination of the Merger Agreement the related Deferred offering costs in current assets of $1,394,366 was expensed in professional fees in the year ended March 31, 2024.

 

The Merger Agreement had provided for aggregate consideration to be issued to securityholders of the Company of 17,500,000 shares (the “Closing Merger Consideration Shares”) of Yotta’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Yotta Shares”), to be issued at the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), plus an additional (i) 5,000,000 Yotta Shares if the Surviving Corporation has at least $15,000,000 in revenue during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024 and (ii) 5,000,000 Yotta Shares if the Surviving Corporation has at least $30,000,000 in revenue during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025 (collectively, the “Contingent Merger Consideration Shares”).

 

In accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time each share of Common Stock outstanding or deemed outstanding pursuant to the provisions discussed immediately below as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will be converted into the right to receive its allocable portion of the Closing Merger Consideration Shares and the Contingent Merger Consideration Shares (to the extent the required revenue thresholds are met).

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement and agreements that, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company would have entered into with holders of such convertible securities, such convertible securities would have been canceled prior to the closing of the Merger in exchange (except for the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series A Preferred”) for a cash payment or Yotta Shares as follows: (i) at the option of the holder thereof, each outstanding warrant to purchase shares of Common Stock would have been e canceled in exchange for a cash payment based on the value thereof or treated as exercised for shares of Common Stock, in each case based on an adjusted exercise price and as otherwise set forth in the Merger Agreement and/or the individual agreements, and if treated as exercised, converted into the right to receive such deemed shares of Common Stock’s allocable portion of the Closing Merger Consideration Shares and the Contingent Merger Consideration Shares; (ii) each outstanding share of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share, would have been canceled and treated as if converted into shares of Common Stock at an adjusted conversion rate as set forth in the Merger Agreement and/or such individual agreements, and converted into the right to receive such deemed shares of Common Stock’s allocable portion of the Closing Merger Consideration Shares and the Contingent Merger Consideration Shares; and (iii) each outstanding share of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series E Preferred”), would have been canceled and treated as if converted into shares of Common Stock at an adjusted conversion rate as set forth in the Merger Agreement and/or such individual agreements, and converted into the right to receive such deemed shares of Common Stock’s allocable portion of the Closing Merger Consideration Shares and the Contingent Merger Consideration Shares. In addition, each holder of Series E Preferred would have been entitled to receive at the Effective Time an additional number of Closing Merger Consideration Shares as are necessary to ensure that the per-share value of the Yotta Shares that such stockholder is entitled to receive is not less than the per-share value (based on the effective purchase price) of the aggregate Yotta Shares then held by any Yotta stockholder after taking into account any newly-issued Yotta Shares that such Yotta stockholder acquires directly from Yotta prior to the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) (which will reduce the number of Closing Merger Consideration Shares that will be issued to the Company’s other securities holders). The Series A Preferred would have been e cancelled and retired without any conversion thereof and for no consideration.
