SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

In light of the risks and uncertainties inherent in all projected operational matters, the inclusion of forward-looking statements in this Form 10-K, should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that any of our objectives or plans will be achieved or that any of our operating expectations will be realized. Our revenues and results of operations are difficult to forecast and could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-K, as a result of certain risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, our business reliance on third parties to provide us with technology, our ability to integrate and manage acquired technology, assets, companies and personnel, changes in market condition, the volatile and intensely competitive environment in the business sectors in which we operate, rapid technological change, and our dependence on key and scarce employees in a competitive market for skilled personnel. These factors should not be considered exhaustive; we undertake no obligation to release publicly the results of any future revisions we may make to forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

 

-ii-

PART I

Except for historical information, this report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").  Such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including, among other things, statements regarding our business strategy, future revenues and anticipated costs and expenses.  Such forward-looking statements include, among others, those statements including the words "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "believes" and similar language.  Our actual results may differ significantly from those projected in the forward-looking statements.  Factors that might cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the section "Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."  You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report.  We undertake no obligation to publicly release any revisions to the forward-looking statements or reflect events or circumstances taking place after the date of this document.

Item 1. Business.

The Company

The Company was initially incorporated on November 15, 1999, as Menu Sites, Inc., a Florida corporation.  On March 9, 2001, the Company's name was changed to CNE Communications, Inc.  On October 1, 2004, the name was changed to CNE Industries, Inc. and on March 29, 2005, the name was changed to GlobalTel IP, Inc.  On May 9, 2008, the Company's name was changed to Cleartronic, Inc.

All current operations are conducted through the Company's wholly owned subsidiary ReadyOp Communications, Inc. ("ReadyOp"), a Florida corporation incorporated on September 15, 2014, which facilitates the marketing and sales of the ReadyOp™ software and the AudioMate IP gateways discussed below.

 In March 2018, the Company approved the spin-off of VoiceInterop, Inc. ("Voiceinterop”), one of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries, into a separate company under a Form S-1 registration to be filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.  On May 13, 2019, VoiceInterop filed an S-1 registration with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. All VoiceInterop transactions have been recorded as discontinued operations in this Form 10-K. On February 14, 2020, the distribution of shares was approved by Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") and VoiceInterop was deconsolidated from Cleartronic, Inc.

In October 2019, the Company acquired the ReadyMed software platform from Collabria LLC. In exchange for this asset, the Company issued 12,000,000 shares of Common stock of the Company. ReadyMed is a web-based secure communications platform initially designed for the healthcare industry. This includes hospitals, clinics, doctor's offices, health insurance companies, workers compensation insurance companies and many other segments of the healthcare industry. The platform provides caregivers with patient tracking capability and allows physicians and other healthcare entities to track patient progress after medical treatment and/or release from hospital care. The software also enables monitoring and reporting of patients in medium- and long-term care. Additionally, the platform provides secure communications capabilities and recordkeeping to track the healing process of patients, record their recovery and monitor their medications. During the year 2020 this software has proved beneficial for multiple clients in the healthcare industry due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

ReadyOp(tm) Software

ReadyOp(tm) is a proprietary, innovative web-based planning and communications platform for efficiently and effectively planning, managing, communicating, and directing operations and emergency response. ReadyOp(tm) is used by local, state and federal government agencies, corporations, school districts, utilities, hospitals and others to manage and report daily operations as well as the ability to handle incidents and emergency situations. ReadyOp(tm) is offered as a software as a service (SAAS) program on an annual contract basis although an increasing number of clients have requested multi-year agreements.

ReadyOp(tm) requires no new or on-site hardware or programming by clients and provides multiple options for communications including radio interoperability using the Company's AudioMate gateways. Plans and operations can be built and stored securely in ReadyOp™ on a by-location, region and systemwide basis. Assets can be listed along with their location, person to contact and other information that may be needed. Diagrams, charts, maps, pictures, report forms and other documentation can be securely stored yet immediately available securely from any location. ReadyOp(tm) also provides efficient planning and response for responding to disasters and for continuity of operations (COOP) and recovery. ReadyOp(tm) is the COOP platform for multiple organizations including many federal agencies.

ReadyMed(tm) Software

In October 2019, the Company acquired the ReadyMed software platform from Collabria LLC. In exchange for this asset, the Company issued 12,000,000 shares of Common stock of the Company. ReadyMed is a web-based secure communications platform initially designed for the healthcare industry. This includes hospitals, clinics, doctor's offices, health insurance companies, workers compensation insurance companies and many other segments of the healthcare industry. The platform provides caregivers with patient tracking capability and allows physicians and other healthcare entities to track patient progress after medical treatment and/or release from hospital care. The software also enables monitoring and reporting of patients in medium- and long-term care. Additionally, the platform provides secure communications capabilities and recordkeeping to track the healing process of patients, record their recovery and monitor their medications. During the year 2020 this software has proved beneficial for multiple clients in the healthcare industry due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company offers both the ReadyOp and ReadyMed capabilities to clients and usually refers to the platform as ReadyOp to avoid confusion in the marketplace of two products.

AudioMate IP Gateways

The Company offers a proprietary line of Internet Protocol Gateways branded as AudioMate 360 IP Gateway.The AudioMate 360 IP Gateway was designed to provide an Internet Protocol Gateway to users of unified group communications. The AudioMate 360 IP Gateway is available in different configurations to be used with various types of communications equipment. The AudioMate units are currently being sold directly to end-users by the Company's sales teams and by Value Added Resellers ("VARs"). More than 1,000 end-users in the United States and 18 foreign countries have purchased the Company's AudioMate gateways. Although other devices are available that perform the same or similar functions, we believe that our price for the AudioMate 360 IP Gateway is competitive with prices other companies are charging for similar devices.

Patents and Intellectual Property

Our business will be dependent in part on our intellectual property. For projects that are in development, we intend to rely on intellectual property rights afforded by trademark and trade secret laws, as well as confidentiality procedures, licensing arrangements and potential patent filings.  These measures are to establish and protect our rights to the technology and other intellectual property. We cannot foretell if these procedures and arrangements will be adequate in protecting our intellectual property.

On March 13, 2012, the United States Patent Office notified the Company that U.S. Patent Number 8,135,001 B1 had been granted for the 34 claims of our patent application for Multi Ad Hoc Interoperable Communicating Networks. We may file similar patent applications in additional countries. The claims in the patent application relate to various aspects of the AudioMate 360 IP Gateway. It may be that one or more of the claims are not meaningful. Furthermore, the validity of issued patents is frequently challenged by others. One or more patent applications may have been filed by others previous to our filing, which encompass the same or similar claims. A patent application does not in and of itself grant exclusive rights. A patent application must be reviewed by the Patent Office of each relevant country prior to issuing as a patent and granting exclusive rights.

Because of limited resources, the Company may be unable to protect a patent, either owned or licensed, or to challenge others who may infringe upon a patent.  Because many holders of patents have substantially greater resources and patent litigation is very expensive, we may not have the resources necessary to successfully challenge the validity of patents held by others or withstand claims of infringement or challenges to any patent the Company may possess or obtain. Even if we prevail, the cost and management distraction of litigation could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Internet Protocol Gateways and their related manufacturing processes are covered by a large number of patents and patent applications.  Infringement actions may be instituted against the Company if we use or are suspected of using technology, processes or other subject matter that is claimed under patents of others.  An adverse outcome in any future patent dispute could subject us to significant liabilities to third parties, require disputed rights to be licensed or require us to cease using the infringed technology.

If trade secrets and other means of protection upon which the Company relies may not adequately protect us, the Company's intellectual property could become available to others.  Although we may rely on trade secrets, copyright law, employee and third-party nondisclosure agreements and other protective measures to protect some of our intellectual property, these measures may not provide meaningful protection to the Company.

The laws of many foreign countries do not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States, if at all.

Exclusive Licensing Agreement

On May 5, 2017, the Company entered into an Exclusive Licensing Agreement with Sublicensing Terms (the "Agreement") with the University of South Florida Research Foundation, Inc. ("USFRF") relating to an exclusive license of certain patent rights in connection with one of USFRF's U.S. Patent Applications. Both parties recognize that the research and development work provided by the Company was sufficient for USFRF to enter into the Agreement with the Company.

The Agreement is effective April 25, 2017 and continues until the later of the date that no Licensed Patent remains a pending application or an enforceable patent or the date on which the Licensee's obligation to pay royalties expires.

The Company paid USFRF a License Issue Fee of $3,000 and $7,253.50 as reimbursement of expenses associated with the filing of the Licensed Patent..  The company agreed to pay USFRF a royalty of 3% for sales of all Licensed Products and Licensed Processes and agreed to pay USFRF minimum royalty payments as follows:

Payment

Year

$1,000

2019

$4,000

2020

$8,000

2021

  -and every year thereafter on the same date, for the life of the agreement.

 

In the event the Company proposes to sell any Equity Securities, then USFRF will have the right to purchase 5% of the securities issued in such offering on the same terms and conditions as are offered to other purchasers in such financing.

Rapid Technological Change Could Render the Company's Products Obsolete

The Company's markets are characterized by rapid technological changes, frequent new product introductions and enhancements, uncertain product life cycles, changes in customer requirements, and evolving industry standards.  The introduction of new products embodying new technologies and the emergence of new industry standards could render our existing products obsolete.  The Company's future success will depend upon our ability to continue to develop and introduce new products and services to address the increasingly sophisticated needs of customers.  The Company may experience delays in releasing new products, product enhancements and services in the future which may cause customers and prospective to forego purchase and use of our products and purchase those of competitors.

Seasonality of Our Business

We do not anticipate that our business will be affected by seasonal factors.

Impact of Inflation

We are affected by inflation along with the rest of the economy.  Specifically, our costs to complete our products could rise if specific components needed incur an increase in cost.

Manufacturing and Suppliers

We have outsourced the manufacturing of our AudioMate 360 IP Gateway.  This outsourcing has allowed us to:

Avoid costly capital expenditures for the establishment of manufacturing operations;

Focus on the design, development, sales and support of our products and services; and

Leverage the scale, expertise and purchasing power of specialized contract manufacturers.

 

Currently, the Company has arrangements for the production of the AudioMate gateways with a contract manufacturer.  The reliance on contract manufacturing involves a number of potential risks, including the absence of adequate capacity, ownership of certain elements of electronic designs, and reduced control over delivery schedules.  The Company's contract manufacturer can provide a range of operational and manufacturing services, including component procurement and performing final testing and assembly of our products.  The Company intends to continue use of contract manufacturers to procure components and to maintain adequate manufacturing capacity.

-3-

Competition

The unified group communications industry where the Company's gateways are offered is extremely competitive.  The number of companies entering the industry has increased and competitive pricing pressures can negatively impact profit margins.  The Company will continue to offer the AudioMate gateways, but primarily in conjunction with the ReadyOp platform in order to provide radio interoperability.  Competition for an integrated radio and operations platform is limited and the Company will continue to market the ReadyOp/ReadyMed platform, both with the gateways and without.

We are not aware of any direct competitors for ReadyOp and ReadyMed that offer the same combinations of capabilities and function.  However, there are similar programs being marketed that appear similar and are sometimes confused with ReadyOp such as WebEOC and Everbridge.  ReadyOp provides different capabilities and is priced lower than both of these and in fact, has several clients that use one or even both of these programs in addition to ReadyOp.  We do anticipate having increased competition in the future and will continue to develop and enhance the ReadyOp/ReadyMed platform to improve the value and increase the potential market size and growth of our client clientele.

Sales and Marketing

The ReadyOp/ReadyMed platform is currently marketed through a combination of inside salespersons and outside sales groups. We intend to expand the use of commissioned inside and outside salespersons and outside groups when travel and other COVID-related restrictions are eased

The Company markets the unified group communication solutions and AudioMate 360 IP Gateways through VARs and commissioned salespersons.  We intend to expand the use of commissioned sales groups and individual sales representatives to market and sell our programs and gateways.

Key Personnel of Cleartronic

Our future financial success depends to a large degree upon the personal efforts of our key personnel. , Michael M. Moore, our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Director, and Larry M. Reid, our Chief Financial Officer (CFO), Secretary and Director.  They and their designees play the major role in securing persons capable of developing and executing the Company's business strategy.  While the Company intends to employ additional executive, development and technical personnel in order to minimize dependency upon any one person, we may not be successful in attracting and retaining the persons needed.

At present, Cleartronic has two executive officers, Michael M. Moore and Larry M. Reid.  A copy of the employment agreement with Mr. Moore has been previously filed on January 13, 2016 as an exhibit to a Form 10-K. Mr. Moore is paid a base salary of $16,667 per month. See Item 13. "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence."

In March 2015, the Company entered into a new employment agreement with the Company's CFO, Larry M. Reid (the "Agreement"). Under the Agreement, Mr. Reid agreed to remit 2.0 billion shares of common stock back to the Company in exchange for 200,000 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred stock with a fair value of $252,000. Mr. Reid is paid a base salary of $8,000 per month.  A copy of the employment agreement with Mr. Reid has been previously filed on March 18, 2015 with the SEC as an exhibit to a Form 8-K.

Unless the Company shall have given Mr. Moore or Mr. Reid written notice at least 30 days prior to the Termination Date, the employment agreements automatically renew and continue in effect for additional one-year periods.  The Company has the election at any time after the expiration of the initial term of the Mr. Reid's Agreement to give Mr. Reid notice of Termination.  

The Financial Results for Cleartronic May Be Affected by Factors Outside of Our Control

Our future operating results may vary significantly from quarter to quarter due to a variety of factors, many of which are outside our control.  Our anticipated expense levels are based, in part, on our estimates of future revenues and may vary from projections. We may be unable to adjust spending rapidly enough to compensate for any unexpected revenues shortfall. Accordingly, any significant shortfall in revenue in relation to our planned expenditures could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition. Further, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our operating results are not necessarily a meaningful indication of future performance.

Item 6. Selected Financial Data.

Not applicable.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION SHOULD BE READ TOGETHER WITH THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND RELATED NOTES INCLUDED ELSEWHERE IN THIS ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K.

Impact of COVID-19 Outbreak

The ongoing COVID-19 global and national health emergency has caused significant disruption in the international and United States economies and financial markets. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic. The spread of COVID-19 has caused illness, quarantines, cancellation of events and travel, business and school shutdowns, reduction in business activity and financial transactions, labor shortages, supply chain interruptions and overall economic and financial market instability. The COVID-19 pandemic has the potential to significantly impact the Company's supply chain and other service providers.

In addition, a severe prolonged economic downturn could result in a variety of risks to the business, including weakened demand for products and services and a decreased ability to raise additional capital when needed on acceptable terms, if at all. As the situation continues to evolve, the Company will continue to closely monitor market conditions and respond accordingly. To date, the Company has not experienced a significant adverse economic impact due to COVID-19. While travel and other restrictions have been imposed the company  has mitigated the situation by teleconferencing, web demos, etc.  However, there is no assurance that we will not have any adverse impact in the future.  

The following discussion reflects the Company's plan of operation.  This discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements which are attached to this report.  This discussion contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding our expected financial position, business and financing plans.  These statements involve risks and uncertainties.  The actual results could differ materially from the results described in or implied by these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this report, particularly under the headings "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements."

Unless the context otherwise suggests, "we," "our," "us," and similar terms, as well as references to "Cleartronic," all refer to Cleartronic, Inc. and our subsidiaries as of the date of this report.

Results of Operations

Year Ended September 30, 2020 Compared to Year Ended September 30, 2019.

Revenues. Revenues increased 50% to $1,752,024 in 2020, from $1,164,191 during 2019. This increase of $587,833 was primarily due to increase in the number of customers of the ReadyOp/ReadyMed software platform. Revenue from our other subsidiary, VoiceInterop, Inc., decreased approximately 68% to $27,698 from $87,254. VoiceInterop was deconsolidated on February 14, 2020.

Cost of Revenues and Gross Margins. Cost of revenues increased from $246,117 in 2019, to $407,136 in 2020. Gross margins increased from $918,074 in 2019 to $1,344,888 in 2020. Gross Profit as a percentage of Revenue decreased from 79% in 2019 to 77% in 2020. The decrease was primarily due to the lower profit margins from sales of ReadyOp ACE (AudioMate) IP gateways as compared to higher margins generated from licensing of ReadyOp software.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses decreased approximately 10% in 2020 to $1,105,956 compared to $1,225,734 during 2019. Operating expenses include selling expenses, administrative expenses, research and development costs and amortization expense. Selling expenses decreased approximately 11% from $595,825 in 2019 to $530,853 in 2020, primarily due to decreased travel expenses during to the Covid-19 pandemic. Amortization expense decreased by $61,762 or 84%, primarily due to amortization expenses associated with the ReadyOp software platform which has been fully amortized. The $55,105 decrease in research and development expense was associated with the Company's development of the "Rectenna" project. The decrease was primarily due to research of the Rectenna technology being substantially completed during the year. The Company intends to devote future development funds to commercialize the Rectenna-related technology.

Other Income and Other Expense. Interest and other expense decreased from $17,871 in 2019 to $8,727 in 2020. The decrease was primarily due to payment of outstanding liabilities. Other income in 2019 of $253,480 was attributable to the settlement of old accounts payable.

Loss from Discontinued Operations. Losses from discontinued operations were $64,936 and $104,547 for 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Net Income / Loss. Net income was $165,269 for 2020 and net loss of $176,598 for 2019. On a basis of EBITDA, the Company had EBITDA from continuing operations of $250,412 in 2020 and $19,062 in 2019, a 1,214% increase.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents increased by $48,285 during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020, to $75,983.  Net cash used in operating activities for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020, was $1,802 as compared to $69,357 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019. Adjusted earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") from continuing operations increased from earnings of $19,062 to earnings of $250,412 in 2020.

At September 30, 2020, our total liabilities were $1,180,128, which included $253,372 in accounts payable, $43,457 in accrued expenses, $48,447 in notes payable stockholders, $106,727 in Paycheck Protection note payable and $728,125 in deferred revenue.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.  Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses.  These estimates and assumptions are affected by management's application of accounting policies. Critical accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statement appearing elsewhere in this report.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The recent accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by Financial Accounting Standard Board (FASB) or other standard setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statement upon adoption.

The recent accounting pronouncements are described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statement appearing elsewhere in this report.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure and Controls and Procedures.We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined) in Exchange Act Rules 13a – 15(c) and 15d – 15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2020, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective (1) to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (2) to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to us, including our Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The term disclosure controls and procedures means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78a, et seq.) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of inherent limitations in all control systems, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the registrant have been detected. Also, 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.

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) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

-8-

The term internal control over financial reporting is defined as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the issuer's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the issuer's board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

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 issuer are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the issuer; and

Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the issuer's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2020.  In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO-2013) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There have been no changes in the registrant's internal control over financial reporting through the date of this report or during the quarter ended September 30, 2020, that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant's internal control over financial reporting.

Independent Registered Accountant's Internal Control Attestation. This report does not include an attestation report of the registrant's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management's report was not subject to attestation by the registrant's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the registrant to provide only management's report in this report.

Remediation plans for material weaknesses over internal controls. Our plans to mitigate material weaknesses in disclosure controls and procedures for future filings will be dependent on our ability to obtain adequate financing to fund development of our financial reporting infrastructure.  At this time it is not cost beneficial for us to utilize capital to focus on mitigating financial reporting weaknesses; however, we expect to implement a plan for remediation of these deficiencies when sufficient funding to implement such a plan is available.

While at Culp, Martin developed and implemented several technologies that have since become industry standards. Martin sold the petroleum business in 2005 and focused his efforts on his technology ventures including the SMARTank division of SMARTLogix. SMARTank grew substantially and the technology was later sold to a public company in 2011.

Michael M. Moore is currently Chief Executive Officer and a Director of Cleartronic, Inc. He was founder and CEO of Collabria, LLC, a private software development company. Prior to founding Collabria in 2008, Moore for 13 years was CEO of DTNet Group and for seven years served as CEO of Payroll Transfers, Inc. He also was an assistant vice president with both Kidder Peabody and Merrill Lynch. Mr. Moore is an honors graduate of the United States Air Force Academy and served as an Air Force fighter pilot for eight years, flying F-4 and F-16 fighter aircraft. He is also one of six entrepreneurs profiled in the book Daring Visionaries, How Entrepreneurs Build Companies, Inspire Allegiance, and Create Wealth.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, our directors and certain of our officers, and persons holding more than 10 percent of our common stock are required to file forms reporting their beneficial ownership of our common stock and subsequent changes in that ownership with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.  Such persons are also required to furnish Cleartronic with copies of all forms so filed.

Based solely upon a review of copies of such forms filed on Forms 3, 4, and 5, and amendments thereto furnished to us, we believe that as of the date of this report, our executive officers, directors and greater than 10 percent beneficial owners have not complied on a timely basis with all Section 16(a) filing requirements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of:

Cleartronic, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Cleartronic, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of September 30, 2020 and 2019, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended September 30, 2020 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”).  In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

  

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits.  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 audits 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 controls over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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 financial statements.  Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

CLEARTRONIC, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2020 and 2019

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION

Cleartronic, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in the state of Florida on November 15, 1999. The Company's subsidiaries are VoiceInterop ("VoiceInterop") and ReadyOp Communications, Inc. ("ReadyOp").  On February 14, 2020, VoiceInterop was deconsolidated.  

 

In September 2014, the Company formed ReadyOp Communications, Inc. (a Florida corporation), as a wholly owned subsidiary to facilitate the marketing of ReadyOp software. The Company's only operating subsidiary is ReadyOp Communications, Inc.

 

In November 2016, the Company cancelled its Licensing Agreement with Collabria LLC of Tampa, Florida ("Collabria") and acquired all of the intellectual property related to Collabria's command and control software, trade-named ReadyOp. In addition the Company acquired Collabria's client list. In exchange for these assets the Company issued Collabria 3,000,000 restricted shares of the Company's Series E Convertible Preferred stock. The Company assumed none of Collabria's liabilities.

 

In March 2018, the Company approved the spin-off VoiceInterop into a separate company under a Form S-1 registration to be filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.  On May 13, 2019, VoiceInterop filed an S-1 registration with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. All VoiceInterop transactions have been recorded as discontinued operations. On February 14, 2020, the distribution of shares was approved by FINRA and VoiceInterop was deconsolidated from Cleartronic, Inc. (See Note 11).

 

In October 2019, the Company acquired a software platform from Collabria LLC. In exchange for this asset, the Company issued 12,000,000 shares of Common stock of the Company. ReadyMed is a web based secure communication platform designed for the health care industry. This includes hospitals, clinics, doctor's offices and health insurance companies and many other segments of the health care industry. It provides hospitals with patient tracking capability within the hospital. It allows physicians to track patient progress after release from the hospital and allows for secure communication with the patient to track the healing process, record their recovery and monitor their medications.

 

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements contain the consolidated accounts of Cleartronic, Inc. and its subsidiaries, ReadyOp Communications, Inc. and VoiceInterop, Inc. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. On February 14, 2020, the deconsolidation of VoiceInterop was completed and transactions through that date are recorded as discontinued operations. (See Note 11).

  

USE OF ESTIMATES

 

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and operations for the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on management's knowledge of current events and actions it may undertake in the future, they may ultimately differ from actual results.

Significant estimates include the assumptions used in valuation of deferred tax assets, estimated useful life of intangible assets and property and equipment, valuation of inventory and allowance for doubtful accounts.

 

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

 

For financial statement purposes, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company did not own any cash equivalents at September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019.

 

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

 

The Company provides an allowance for uncollectible accounts based upon a periodic review and analysis of outstanding accounts receivable balances. Uncollectible receivables are charged to the allowance when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of accounts previously written off are used to credit the allowance account in the periods in which the recoveries are made.

 

The Company provided $6,000 and $52,000 allowances for doubtful accounts as of September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, respectively.

 

F-6

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

 

Property and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated or amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset or the underlying lease term for leasehold improvements, whichever is shorter onset the property and equipment is put into service.

 

ASSET ACQUISITION

 

In October 2019, the Company acquired a software platform from Collabria LLC ("ReadyMed software platform"). In exchange for this asset, the Company issued 12,000,000 shares of Common stock valued at historical costs of $600,000. ReadyMed is a web based secure communication platform designed for the health care industry. This includes hospitals, clinics, doctor’s offices and health insurance companies and many other segments of the health care industry.  It provides hospitals with patient tracking capability within the hospital. It allows physicians to track patient progress after release from the hospital and allows for secure communication with the patient to track the healing process, record their recovery and monitor their medications. As of the acquisition date, the Company has recorded an estimated historical cost of the ReadyMed software platform based on a preliminary purchase price allocation prepared by management.  As a result, during the preliminary purchase price allocation period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired. After the preliminary purchase price allocation period, the Company recorded adjustments to assets acquired subsequent to the purchase price allocation period in the period in which the adjustments were determined. Accordingly, the ReadyMed software platform purchased price was adjusted. As of September 30, 2020, the ReadyMed software platform is valued at historical costs of $0.

 

In November 2016, the Company acquired the ReadyOp software platform and the Collabria customer base from Collabria LLC. In exchange for these assets the Company issued 3,000,000 shares of restricted Series E Convertible Preferred stock valued at $292,240. This valuation was based on internal calculations and validated by a third party valuation expert. The ReadyOp software platform was valued at $195,600 to be amortized over three years, the amortization expense for the years ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $10,878 and $65,196, respectively. As of September 30, 2020, ReadyOp software platform has been fully amortized.

 

The Collabria customer base was valued at $96,640 to be amortized over two years, amortization expense for the years ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $0 and $8,046, respectively. As of September 30, 2019, the Collabria customer base has been fully amortized.  

 

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

 

The Company currently maintains cash balances at one FDIC-insured banking institution. Deposits held in noninterest-bearing transaction accounts are insured up to a maximum of $250,000 at all FDIC-insured institutions. At September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, the Company had approximately $0 and $0, respectively in excess of FDIC insurance limits.

 

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS

 

The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred.  

 

For the years ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company had $152,602 and $207,707, respectively, in research and development costs from continuing operations.

  

REVENUE RECOGNITION AND DEFERRED REVENUES

 

The Company revenue recognition policy follows guidance from Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenue from contract with customers.   Revenue is recognized when the Company transferred promised goods and services to the customer and in the amount that reflect the consideration to which the company expected to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services.

 

The Company applies the following five-step model in order to determine this amount:

i. Identification of Contact with a customer;

ii. Identify the performance obligation of the contract

iii. Determine transaction price;

iv.Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and

v. Recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

The Company generates revenue primarily through the sale of integrated hardware and software licenses. The portion of the contract that is associated with ongoing hosting and related customer service is amortized monthly over the license period. The Company incurs certain incremental contract costs (referred to as deferred subscriber acquisition costs, net) including selling expenses (primarily commissions) related to acquiring customers. Deferred subscriber acquisition costs, net are included in prepaid and expenses and other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Commissions paid in connection with acquiring new customers are determined based on the value of the contractual fees. Deferred subscriber acquisition costs will be amortized over the license period.  As of September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, the Company recorded $20,900 in deferred subscriber costs, which is included as a component of prepaid expense.

In transactions in which hardware is sold to a customer, the Company recognizes the revenue when the hardware has been shipped to the customer. The hardware supplied by the Company does not require a related software license and can be operated and fully functional without the Company's software.

 

From time to time clients request special training meetings. We send employees to these meeting and charge our clients on a per diem basis. These charges are recorded as consulting fees on our income statement.

The Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative standalone selling price. Revenue associated with the sale and installation of system licenses is recognized once installation is complete.

 

Customer billings for services not yet rendered are deferred and recognized as revenue as services are provided. These fees are recorded as current deferred revenue on the consolidated balance sheet as the Company expects to satisfy any remaining performance obligations as well as recognize the related revenue within the next twelve months. Accordingly, the Company has applied the practical expedient regarding deferred revenue to exclude the value of remaining performance obligations if (i) the contract has an original expected term of one year or less or (ii) the Company recognizes revenue in proportion to the amount it has the right to invoice for services performed.

 

F-7

EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

Basic income (loss) per common share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods reported. Diluted earnings per share include the weighted average effect of all dilutive securities outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted per share loss is the same as basic per share loss when there is a loss from continuing operations. Accordingly, for purposes of dilutive earnings per share, the Company excluded the effect of warrants and options.  

 

As of September 30, 2020 and 2019, we had no options and warrants outstanding.  

 

As of September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company had 512,996 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred stock outstanding, which are convertible into 51,299,600 shares of common stock.

 

As of September 30, 2020 and 2019, we had 4,433,375 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred stock outstanding, which are convertible into 22,166,875 shares of common stock.

 

As of September 30, 2020 and 2019, we had 670,904 shares of Series D Preferred stock outstanding which are convertible into 3,354,520 shares of common stock.

 

As of September 30, 2020 and 2019, we had 3,000,000 shares of Series E Convertible Preferred stock outstanding which are convertible into 300,000,000 shares of common stock.

 

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The Company measures the fair value of its assets and liabilities under ASC topic 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures". ASC 820 defines "fair value" as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There was no impact relating to the adoption of ASC 820 to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

ASC 820 also describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

§ Level 1: Observable inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets.

§ Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

§ Level 3: Inputs that are generally observable. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management's best estimate of fair value.

Financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and deferred revenue. The carrying amounts of such financial instruments in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet approximate their fair values due to their relatively short-term nature. The fair value of long-term debt is based on current rates at which the Company could borrow funds with similar remaining maturities. The carrying amounts approximate fair value. It is management's opinion that the Company is not exposed to any significant currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

 

The Company's fair value hierarchy for intangible assets as of September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, was as follows:

INVENTORY

 

Inventory consists of components held for assembly and finished goods held for resale or to be utilized for installation in projects. Inventory is valued at lower of cost or net realizable value on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company's policy is to record a reserve for technological obsolescence or slow-moving inventory items.  The Company only carries finished goods to be shipped along with completed circuit boards and parts necessary for final assembly of finished product. All existing inventory is considered current and usable. The Company recorded no reserve for obsolete inventory as of September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, respectively.

 

EQUITY INSTRUMENTS ISSUED TO PARTIES OTHER THAN EMPLOYEES FOR ACQUIRING GOODS OR SERVICES

 

The Company accounts for stock-based instruments issued for services in accordance with ASC 718 "Compensation – Stock Compensation." ASC 718 requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity based compensation issued. The value of the portion of a stock award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods using the straight-line attribution method.

 

ADVERTISING COSTS

 

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The Company had advertising costs of $41,444 and $15,073 during the years ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which will amend current lease accounting to require lessees to recognize (i) a lease liability, which is a lessee's obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis, and (ii) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee's right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. ASU 2016-02 does not significantly change lease accounting requirements applicable to lessors; however, certain changes were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model. This standard became effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this standard effective October 1, 2019 which are fully discussed in Note 11.

 

All other newly issued accounting pronouncements are either immaterial or not applicable.

 

NOTE 3 - EQUIPMENT

NOTE 4 - DEFERRED INCOME TAXES

 

The Company calculates its deferred tax assets based upon its consolidated net operating loss (NOL) carryovers available to offset future taxable income, net of other tax credit(s) or tax deferred liabilities, if any. No deferred tax assets for the years ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 have been recorded since any available deferred tax assets are fully offset by increases in its valuation allowances. The Company increased its valuation allowance based on its history of consolidated net losses. At September 30, 2020, the Company has an adjusted net operating loss carryforward of approximately $14,574,000 that expire through 2040. Should a cumulative change in the ownership of more than 50% occur within a three-year period, there could be an annual limitation on the use of the net operating loss carryforwards.

 

Deferred income taxes reflect the tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes plus any available consolidated, net deferred tax credits.  Significant components of the Company's net deferred income tax assets at September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively are as follows:

Management has determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will not use the NOL carryforward and has a 100% valuation allowance against the deferred asset. The reserve is based on historical experience of the Company's operations as it has not recognized net income in its current incarnation and there is no indication of any events or conditions that would show that trend will not continue due to the Company's current expectation of expense requirements.

NOTE 10 -    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Obligation Under Operating Lease

 

The Company leases approximately 1,700 square feet for its principal offices in Boca Raton, Florida at a monthly rental of approximately $4,200, which expired November 2018. Upon the deconsolidation, the Company subleases the office space from VoiceInterop at approximately $1,400 per month which expires on November 30, 2021.

 

Rent expense incurred during the years ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $31,532 and $46,192, respectively.

 

Revenue and Accounts Receivable Concentration

 

No customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company's revenue for the years ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.  As of September 30, 2020 two customers accounted for approximately 29% of the Company's total outstanding accounts receivable with each customer representing 18% and 11%, respectively. As of September 30, 2019, no customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company's total outstanding accounts receivable.

 

Major Supplier and Sole Manufacturing Source

 

During 2014, the Company developed a proprietary interoperable communications solution. The Company relies on no major supplier for its products and services. The Company has contracted with a single local manufacturing facility to provide completed circuit boards used in the assembly of its IP gateway devices. Interruption to the manufacturing source presents additional risk to the Company. The Company believes that other commercial facilities exist at competitive rates to match the resources and capabilities of its existing manufacturing source.

 

Employment Agreements

 

In December 2016, the Board of Directors accepted the resignation of Larry M. Reid as Chief Executive Officer of the corporation and appointed Mr. Reid as Chief Financial Officer. The Board also appointed Michael M. Moore as Chief Executive Officer.

The term of agreement is for a one-year period beginning on the effective date and shall automatically renew and continue in effect for additional one-year periods.  For the year ended September 30, 2020, the CFO received a onetime bonus of $15,356 as an additional compensation for services performed.

 

Exclusive Licensing Agreement

 

On May 5, 2017, the Company entered into an Exclusive Licensing Agreement with Sublicensing Terms (the "Agreement") with the University of Southern Florida Research Foundation, Inc. ("USFRF") relating to an exclusive license of certain patent rights in connection with one of USFRF's U.S. Patent Applications. Both parties recognize that the research and development work provided by the Company was sufficient for USFRF to enter into the Agreement with the Company.

 

The Agreement is effective April 25, 2017 and continues until the later of the date that no Licensed Patent remains a pending application or an enforceable patent or the date on which the Licensee's obligation to pay royalties expires.

 

The Company paid USFRF a License Issue Fee of $3,000 and $7,253 as reimbursement of expenses associated with the filing of the Licensed Patent. The company agreed to pay USFRF a royalty of 3% for sales of all Licensed Products and Licensed Processes and agreed to pay USFRF minimum royalty payments as follows:

$1,000

2019

$4,000

2020

$8,000

2021

  -and every year thereafter on the same date, for the life of the agreement.

 

In the event the Company proposes to sell any Equity Securities, then USFRF will have the right to purchase 5% of the securities issued in such offering on the same terms and conditions are offered to other purchasers in such financing.

 

As of September 30, 2020, the Company has recorded $2,000 for the minimum royalty for the fiscal year ended 2020.

 

As of September 30, 2019, the Company has recorded $1,000 for the minimum royalty for the fiscal year ended 2019.

The agreement calls for 308 installments of $194 paid over 432 days. The debt issuance cost is amortized over the life of the loan. As of September 30, 2020, the remaining loan balance of $18,429 was paid in full from the note payable dated October 8, 2019.

 

On October 8, 2019, VoiceInterop entered into a Business Loan Agreement with WebBank whereby VoiceInterop borrowed $56,680, of this amount $13,080 was recorded as debt issuance cost. The debt issuance cost is amortized over the life of the loan. The agreement calls for 308 installments of $184 paid over 432 days. The Company used $18,429 of loan proceeds to pay off the remaining loan balance of WebBank loan dated December 14, 2018. As of February 14, 2020, the loan balance is $31,269, net of debt issuance cost of $10,688. The amount is included in VoiceInterop deconsolidation as of February 14, 2020.

 

Subscription Agreements between VoiceInterop, Inc. and private investors

 

During the year ended September 30, 2018, VoiceInterop committed to sell 600,000 shares of its common stock to private investors for $68,000. The shares issuance is contingent upon a spin-off of the Company from Cleartronic, Inc. into a separate company. As of February 14, 2020, the spin-off has been completed and the shares have been issued.

 

Operating lease asset and liability

 

VoiceInterop subleases part of its office space to two entities for approximately $1,150 per month and is included in income from discontinued operations. Sublease rental income received during the period from October 1, 2019 through February 14, 2020 (deconsolidation date), was $5,750.  

 

The Company adopted the new lease guidance effective October 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition approach, applying the new standard to all of its leases existing at the date of initial application which is the effective date of adoption. Consequently, financial information will not be updated and the disclosures required under the new standard will not be provided for dates and periods before October 1. 2019.  We elected the package of practical expedients which permits us to not reassess (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (2) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and (3) any initial direct costs for any existing leases as of the effective date. We did not elect the hindsight practical expedient which permits entities to use hindsight in determining the lease term and assessing impairment. The adoption of the lease standard did not change our previously reported consolidated statements of operations and did not result in a cumulative catch-up adjustment to opening equity. The adoption of the new guidance resulted in the recognition of operating lease assets of $75,078 and lease liability of $79,171.

 

The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable. As such, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate, which is the rate incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. In calculating the present value of the lease payments, the Company elected to utilize its incremental borrowing rate based on the remaining lease terms as of the October 1, 2019 adoption date. This rate was determined to be 23% and the Company determined the initial present value, at inception, of $79,171.

 

Operating lease asset and operating lease liability are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. The operating lease asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred, if any.

 

The Company has elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components as a single component. The lease expense is recognized over the expected term on a straight-line basis. Operating leases are recognized on the balance sheet as operating lease asset, current operating lease liability and non-current operating lease liability.

 

The new standard also provides practical expedients and certain exemptions for an entity's ongoing accounting. We have elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify. This means, for those leases where the initial lease term is one year or less or for which the operating lease asset at inception is deemed immaterial, we will not recognize operating lease asset or lease liability. Those leases are expensed on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

 

As of February 14, 2020 the operating lease liabilities of $66,114 and lease assets of $62,226 were included in liabilities from discontinued operations and were deconsolidated.  

 

Future lease commitments are as follows for the years ended September 30:
