INNOVATIVE PAYMENT SOLUTIONS, INC.
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
| 1 | ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS |
| a) | Organization |
On May 12, 2016, Innovative Payment Solutions, Inc. (formerly known as QPAGOS and Asiya Pearls, Inc.), a Nevada corporation (“IPSI” or the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Qpagos Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Qpagos Corporation”), and Qpagos Merge, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of IPSI (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on May 12, 2016, the merger was consummated, and Qpagos Corporation and Merger Sub merged (the “Merger”), with Qpagos Corporation continuing as the surviving corporation of the Merger.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, upon consummation of the Merger, each share of Qpagos Corporation’s capital stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger was converted into the right to receive two shares of IPSI common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”). Additionally, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, upon consummation of the Merger, IPSI assumed all of Qpagos Corporation’s warrants issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger, which were exercisable for approximately 621,920 shares of Common Stock, respectively, as of the date of the Merger. Prior to and as a condition to the closing of the Merger, the then-current IPSI stockholder of 500,000 shares of Common Stock agreed to return to IPSI 497,500 shares of Common Stock held by such holder and the then-current IPSI stockholder retained an aggregate of 2,500 shares of Common Stock and the other stockholders of IPSI retained 500,000 shares of Common Stock. Therefore, immediately following the Merger, Qpagos Corporation’s former stockholders held 4,992,900 shares of IPSI common stock which represented approximately 91% of the outstanding Common Stock.
The Merger was treated as a reverse acquisition of IPSI, a public shell company, for financial accounting and reporting purposes. As such, Qpagos Corporation was treated as the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes while IPSI was treated as the acquired entity for accounting and financial reporting purposes.
Qpagos Corporation (“Qpagos”) was incorporated on May 1, 2015 under the laws of the state of Delaware to effectuate a reverse merger transaction with Qpagos, S.A.P.I. de C.V. (“Qpagos Mexico”) and Redpag Electrónicos S.A.P.I. de C.V. (“Redpag”). Each of the entities were incorporated in November 2013 in Mexico.
Qpagos Mexico was formed to process payment transactions for service providers it contracts with, and Redpag was formed to deploy and operate kiosks as a distributor.
On May 27, 2016 Asiya changed its name to QPAGOS.
On June 1, 2016, the board of directors of QPAGOS (the “Board”) changed the Company’s fiscal year end from October 31 to December 31.
On November 1, 2019, the Company changed its name from QPAGOS to Innovative Payment Solutions, Inc.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
| 1 | ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (continued) |
| b) | Description of the business |
Subsequent to the merger of Qpagos Corporation into IPSI and until the divestiture of Qpagos Corporation, Qpagos Mexico and Redpag, the Company’s focus was on the operations of Qpagos Corporation in Mexico. The Company’s current focus is on providing physical and virtual payment services to allow US persons to transfer funds to Mexico and other countries.
The Company is focused on operating and developing e-wallets that enable consumers to deposit cash, convert it into a digital form and remit the funds to Mexico and other countries quickly and securely.

| c) | COVID-19 Outbreak |
In March 2020, the outbreak of COVID-19 (also known as the coronavirus) caused by a novel strain of the coronavirus was recognized as a pandemic by the World Health Organization, and the outbreak has become increasingly widespread in the United States, including in each of the areas in which the Company operates. The Company has continued operating and has recently expanded on its strategy into developing an e-wallet for payment processing which will not require the presence of a physical kiosk.
The Company continues to monitor the continuous impact of COVID-19 closely. The extent to which COVID-19 will continue to impact the Company’s operations, ability to obtain financing or future financial results is uncertain.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
| 2 | ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES |
| a) | Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed financial statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments), which the Company considers necessary, for a fair presentation of those financial statements. The results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 may not necessarily be indicative of results that may be expected for any succeeding quarter or for the entire fiscal year. The information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Report”) should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of IPSI for the year ended December 31, 2020, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 31, 2021.
All amounts referred to in the notes to the unaudited condensed financial statements are in United States Dollars ($) unless stated otherwise.
| b) | Use of Estimates |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions, which are evaluated on an ongoing basis, that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the amounts of revenues and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates and judgments. In particular, significant estimates and judgments include those related to, the estimated useful lives for plant and equipment, the fair value of long-lived investments, the fair value of warrants and stock options granted for services or compensation, estimates of the probability and potential magnitude of contingent liabilities, derivative liabilities, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets due to continuing operating losses and the allowance for doubtful accounts.
Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from our estimates.
| c) | Contingencies |
Certain conditions may exist as of the date the 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 assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment.
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 financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential 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 to be remote by management are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantee would be disclosed.

| 2 | ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES (continued) |
| d) | Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
The Company adopted the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 for fair value measurements which clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.
Level 2 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 - Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for the investment in Vivi Holdings Inc., was evaluated at fair value using Level 3 Inputs based on the Company’s estimate of the market value of the entities disposed to Vivi Holdings, Inc. Vivi Holdings Inc., does not have sufficient information available to assess the current market price of its equity.
On
June 22, 2021, the Company made a strategic investment of $
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, other current assets, other assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and notes payable, approximate fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments. The Company has identified the short-term convertible notes and certain warrants attached to certain of the notes that are required to be presented on the balance sheets at fair value in accordance with the accounting guidance.
ASC 825-10 “ Financial Instruments ” allows entities to voluntarily choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value (fair value option). The fair value option may be elected on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable unless a new election date occurs. If the fair value option is elected for an instrument, unrealized gains and losses for that instrument should be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The Company evaluates the fair value of variably priced derivative liabilities on a quarterly basis and report any movements thereon in earnings.
| e) | Risks and Uncertainties |
The Company’s operations will be subject to significant risks and uncertainties including financial, operational, regulatory, and other risks, including the potential risk of business failure. The global Covid-19 breakout caused an economic crisis which may result in a general tightening in the credit markets, lower levels of liquidity, increases in the rates of default and bankruptcy, and extreme volatility in credit, equity and fixed income markets. These conditions may not only limit the Company’s access to capital, but also make it difficult for its customers, vendors and the Company to accurately forecast and plan future business activities.
The Company is focused on operating and developing e-wallets that enable consumers to deposit cash, convert it into a digital form and remit the funds to Mexico and other countries quickly and securely. The Company’s first e-wallet, the Beyond Wallet, is currently operational. The Company’s flagship e-wallet, IPSIPay, is in final stages of development and testing. Previously the Company intended to invest in physical kiosks, which required the user presence at the kiosk location. The Company still intends to use its existing kiosks in certain target markets within Southern California.
The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

| f) | Recent accounting pronouncements |
The FASB issued several additional updates during the period, none of these standards are either applicable to the Company or require adoption at a future date and none are expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption.
| g) | Reporting by Segment |
No
segmental information is required as the Company has not generated any revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 and
only has
| h) | Cash and Cash Equivalents |
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, the Company had no cash equivalents.
The
Company minimizes credit risk associated with cash by periodically evaluating the credit quality of its primary financial institution
in the United States. The balance at times may exceed federally insured limits. At September 30, 2021, the balance exceeded the federally
insured limit of $
| i) | Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts |
Accounts receivable are reported at realizable value, net of allowances for doubtful accounts, which is estimated and recorded in the period the related revenue is recorded. The Company has a standardized approach to estimate and review the collectability of its receivables based on a number of factors, including the period they have been outstanding. Historical collection and payer reimbursement experience is an integral part of the estimation process related to allowances for doubtful accounts. In addition, the Company regularly assesses the state of its billing operations in order to identify issues, which may impact the collectability of these receivables or reserve estimates. Revisions to the allowance for doubtful accounts estimates are recorded as an adjustment to bad debt expense. Receivables deemed uncollectible are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts at the time such receivables are written-off. Recoveries of receivables previously written-off are recorded as credits to the allowance for doubtful accounts. There were no recoveries during the period ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.
| j) | Investments |
The
Company’s non-marketable equity securities are investments in privately held companies without readily determinable market values.
The carrying value of our non-marketable equity securities is adjusted to fair value for observable transactions for identical or similar
investments of the same issuer or impairment (referred to as the measurement alternative). All gains and losses on non-marketable equity
securities, realized and unrealized, are recognized in other income (expense), net. Non-marketable equity securities that have been remeasured
during the period are classified within Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy because the Company estimates the value based on valuation
methods using the observable transaction price at the transaction date and other unobservable inputs including volatility, rights, and
obligations of the securities the Company holds. The cost method is used when the Company has a passive, long-term investment that doesn’t
result in influence over the Company. The cost method is used when the investment results in an ownership stake of less than

|
The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the year of disposition.
| l) | Long-Term Assets |
Assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets
| m) | Revenue Recognition |
The Company’s revenue recognition policy is consistent with the requirements of FASB ASC 606, Revenue.
The Company’s revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those services. The Company derives its revenues from the sale of its services, as defined below. The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its revenue transactions:
| i. | identify the contract with a customer; |
| ii. | identify the performance obligations in the contract; |
| iii. | determine the transaction price; |
| iv. | allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and |
| v. | recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied. |
The Company had no revenues during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

| n) | Share-Based Payment Arrangements |
Generally, all forms of share-based payments, including stock option grants, restricted stock grants and stock appreciation rights are measured at their fair value on the awards’ grant date, based on the estimated number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest. Share-based compensation awards issued to non-employees for services rendered are recorded at either the fair value of the services rendered or the fair value of the share-based payment, whichever is more readily determinable. The expense resulting from share-based payments is recorded in operating expenses in the statement of operations.
Where equity transactions with arms-length third parties, who had applied their own assumptions and estimates in determining the market value of our equity, had taken place prior to and within a reasonable time frame of any share-based payments, the value of those share transactions have been used as the fair value for any share-based equity payments.
Where equity transactions with arms-length third parties, included both shares and warrants, the value of the warrants have been eliminated from the unit price of the securities using a Black-Scholes valuation model to determine the value of the warrants. The assumptions used in the Black Scholes valuation model includes market related interest rates for risk-free government issued treasury securities with similar maturities; the expected volatility of the Company’s common stock based on companies operating in similar industries and markets; the estimated stock price of the Company; the expected dividend yield of the Company and; the expected life of the warrants being valued.
| o) | Derivative Liabilities |
ASC 815 generally provides three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re- measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument subject to the requirements of ASC 815. ASC 815 also provides an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional, as described.
| p) | Income Taxes |
The Company is based in the US and currently enacted US tax laws are used in the calculation of income taxes.
Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A full valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized. It is the Company’s policy to classify interest and penalties on income taxes as interest expense or penalties expense. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there have been no interest or penalties incurred on income taxes.
| q) | Comprehensive income |
Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a company during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances excluding transactions resulting from investments from owners and distributions to owners. For the Company, there is no comprehensive income for the periods presented.

If the Company is required to raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, its stockholders would experience dilution. Additional debt financing, if available, may involve covenants restricting its operations or its ability to incur additional debt. Any additional debt financing or additional equity that the Company raises may contain terms that are not favorable to it or its stockholders and require significant debt service payments, which diverts resources from other activities.
Based on this current business plan, the Company believes its existing cash is sufficient to conduct planned operations for one year from the issuance of the September 30, 2021 financial statements.

In terms of the Senior Secured convertible notes entered into with various noteholders as described in note 8 above, the Company issued five year warrants exercisable for a total of 28,709,182 shares of common stock at initial exercise prices ranging from $0.05 to $0.24 per share. The warrants have a cashless exercise option and an exercise limitation based on a certain beneficial ownership percentage of 4.99% which may be adjusted to 9.99%. The exercise price of the warrant is adjustable under the following conditions; i) subsequent equity sales are at a price below the exercise price of the warrant; ii) the Company issues options with an exercise price lower than the exercise price of the warrants; iii) issues convertible securities which are convertible into common stock at a price lower than the warrant exercise price; and iv) the option exercise price or rate of conversion for convertible securities results in a lower exercise price than the exercise price of the warrants.
The warrant holders also have the option to acquire subsequent rights offering rights, under certain circumstances and are entitled to pro-rata distributions made by the Company in assets or securities other than common stock.
The warrants include a fundamental transaction clause which will give the warrant holder the right on an as converted basis to the proceeds which common shareholders would be entitled to as a result of a fundamental transaction. Notwithstanding the aforementioned rights, provided the warrants are not registered under an effective registration statement, the holder of the warrant has the right to receive cash equal to the Black-Scholes value of the unexercised portion of the warrant in accordance with the terms of the warrant agreement.

Management Discussion and Analysis of financial condition
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon the unaudited condensed financial statements as of September 30, 2021 and 2020, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of any contingent liabilities at the financial statement date and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, we review our estimates and assumptions. The estimates are based on our historical experience and other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results are likely to differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We incurred an accumulated deficit of $40,883,037 through September 30, 2021 and incurred negative cash flow from operations of $1,883,716 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The Company’s focus on operating and developing e-wallets that enable consumers to deposit cash, convert it into a digital form and remit the funds to Mexico and other countries quickly and securely, will require us to spend, substantial amounts in connection with implementing our business strategy, including our planned product development.
To meet our financing needs, we have raised net convertible debt funding of $2,048,000, received proceeds from warrant exercises of $2,780,460 and additional gross proceeds $4,550,000 from a private placement of equity securities, we believe we have sufficient funding to implement our business strategy.

We invested $500,000 in the common stock of Frictionless which has been contracted to develop our payment platform for the Mexican and other markets. This is a strategic investment and we expect a platform to be ready to utilize within the current year. We also invested a further $250,000 in the acquisition of a license and services for the Beyond Wallet software in the furtherance of our objectives.
Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was primarily comprised of gross proceeds of $4,550,000 from the private placement on March 17, 2021, $3,009,349 from warrants exercised and $2,569,000 from convertible debt issued. We utilized $501,100 for share issue expenses and repaid convertible debt of $521,000 during the period.
At September 30, 2021, we had outstanding notes in the principal amount of $2,044,000. The notes were issued on February 16, 2021 and may be prepaid at any time for the first 90 days in an amount equal to 115% of the principal amount plus accrued interest. From day 91 through day 180, the Notes may be prepaid in an amount equal to 120% of the principal amount plus accrued interest. From day 181 through day 365, it may be prepaid in an amount equal to 125% of the principal amount plus accrued interest.

The notes mature in 12 months, bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum, and are initially convertible into our common stock at a conversion price of $0.23 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock combinations, dilutive issuances and similar events). Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the notes, the respective holder has the right to be prepaid at 140% of the outstanding principal balance and accrued interest, and interest accrues at 18% per annum (or the maximum amount permitted by law). In addition, if an event of default under a note has occurred, regardless of whether it has been cured or remains ongoing, such Note will thereafter be convertible at 65% of the lowest closing price of our common stock for the last 10 consecutive trading days.
Other than amounts owed under convertible notes, we have a commitment for a property lease which expires in April 2022.
The amount of future minimum lease payments under operating leases are as follows:
