NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018 AND 2017

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, NATURE OF BUSINESS AND GOING CONCERN

(A) Organization

On March 16, 2011 PayMeOn, Inc., a Nevada corporation organized on May 30, 2006 (the "Company" or “PayMeOn”) completed its agreement and plan of merger (the "Merger Agreement") to acquire Hyperlocal Marketing, LLC, a Florida limited liability company ("Hyperlocal"), pursuant to which Hyperlocal merged with and into HLM PayMeOn, Inc., a Florida corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Hyperlocal members received 301,296 shares of the Company common stock, which equals approximately 50.1% of the total shares of the Company issued and outstanding following the merger on a fully diluted basis. In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360-10-45-15, the transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition. Hyperlocal was considered the accounting acquirer and the acquire was the Company since the members of Hyperlocal obtained voting and management control of the Company and the transaction had been accounted for as a reverse merger and recapitalization.

Hyperlocal was originally organized in the State of Florida on January 22, 2010.

In 2014, the Company began selling Prodeco Technologies, LLC brand electric bicycles, an affiliate entity, of which the Company acquired a 19.4% equity interest. During 2015, the Company expanded its sales of electric bicycles to include sales of electric bicycles and related products made by other manufacturers in a retail store location in Fort Lauderdale.

During the first quarter of 2016, the Company formed a new subsidiary, PayMeOn Brands, Inc., to pursue the business of developing, marketing, managing and monetizing lifestyle brands and products. The Company intended to develop and leverage its relationships and expertise with respect to manufacturing processes, wholesale and retail distribution networks, and social influencer promotion, primarily targeting youth oriented "lifestyle" markets to create and grow new and existing brands across several market segments.

On October 16, 2016, the Company formed a new, wholly-owned company called Xtreme Fat Tire Bike Holdings, LLC (“Xtreme”). The Company was formed to pursue potential development of the “fat tire” segment of the electric bikes market. To date, Xtreme has had no material operations.

On February 21, 2017, the Company executed a membership interest purchase agreement to acquire 100% of the membership interests of Rockstar Acquisitions, LLC d/b/a Basalt America (“Basalt America”). Basalt America leverages its licensed intellectual property, technology and processes to produce Basalt Fiber Reinforced Polymer products that are used as replacements for steel products that reinforce concrete such as rebar. In consideration of the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Basalt America, the Company issued an aggregate of 95,500,000 restricted shares of its common stock to the members of Basalt America. For accounting purposes, the transaction was recorded at historical cost in accordance with ASC 805-50-25-2 as this was considered an acquisition of entities under common control as the Board of Directors of the Company and of Basalt America are the same and control the activities of the respective companies.

During the second quarter of 2017, the Company entered into a term sheet for a Joint Venture (“Joint Venture”) with accredited investors for the management of Basalt America Territory 1, LLC, which will have the exclusive rights to manage sales for Dade, Broward and Monroe Counties in the State of Florida. In conjunction with entering into the Joint Venture, the investors provided total proceeds of $502,500 which was used as a deposit to purchase future inventory from May to August 2017. Operations commenced during the fourth quarter of 2017. The Company owns 55.3% of the Joint Venture and the investors own 44.7% of the joint venture.

During the second quarter of 2017, we also created Basalt America Territory 2, LLC to manage the sales, distribution and marketing of our products for the state of Rhode Island. The joint venture is to be owned 50% by Basalt America and 50% by a third-party investor. Basalt America Territory 2, LLC has not yet been formalized and has not yet commenced operations.

FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018 AND 2017

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, NATURE OF BUSINESS AND GOING CONCERN (CONTINUED)

(A) Organization (Continued)

On March 19, 2018, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the disposal of HLM Paymeon, Inc. and Paymeon Brands, Inc. as they made a strategic shift into the basalt fiber reinforced polymer business with the acquisition of Basalt America. The disposal of HLM Paymeon, Inc. was effective September 30, 2018. The disposal is reflected in the Company’s financial statements effective September 30, 2018. As a result of this disposal under ASC 205-20-45-1E, the Company has presented the assets and liabilities of this segment as discontinued operations and have reclassified the prior year balances to reflect this strategic shift.

On April 13, 2018, Edward A. Cespedes resigned as the chairman and chief executive officer of our Company and all our subsidiaries.

On April 13, 2018, Vincent L. Celentano was appointed chairman and chief executive officer of our Company and all our subsidiaries. Mr. Celentano is the largest individual shareholder of our Company.

On August 8, 2018, the Company entered into a six-month agreement with David Anderson to act as its Interim Chief Executive Officer and Interim Principal Financial Officer.

On August 13, 2018, the Company formed Basanite Industries LLC, a wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary.

On August 16, 2018, the Company accepted the resignation of Vincent L. Celentano as Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer.

PayMeOn and its wholly owned subsidiaries are herein referred to as the "Company".

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position and results of operations. The interim results for the period ended September 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year. It is management's opinion, however that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation.

(B) Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PayMeOn, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, PayMeOn Brands, Inc, HLM PayMeOn, Inc., Basanite Industries, LLC, Xtreme Fat Tire Bike Holdings. LLC, Basalt America, and Basalt America Territory 1, LLC, a majority owned subsidiary. All intercompany accounts have been eliminated in the consolidation.

(C) Going Concern

Since inception, the Company has incurred net operating losses and used cash in operations. As of September 30, 2018, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $17,860,917, a working capital deficiency of $1,932,842 and cash used in operations of $1,294,139 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Losses have principally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for product development and marketing of the Company's products which included the general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development.

The acquisition of Basalt America and commencement of production related to the products we will produce will require substantial additional investment in plant and equipment. In addition, we will have to invest substantial sums in the creation of a sales and marketing program designed to introduce our products to the industry.

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, NATURE OF BUSINESS AND GOING CONCERN (CONTINUED)

(C) Going Concern

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plan provides the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(A) Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash instruments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company has no cash equivalents as of September 30, 2018.

(B) Use of Estimates in Financial Statements

The presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates during the period covered by these financial statements include the useful lives of depreciable assets, valuation of accounts receivable reserves, valuation of inventory allowances, valuation of deferred tax assets, stock-based compensation and any beneficial conversion features on convertible debt.

(C) Fair Value Measurements and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company adopted FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. ASC Topic 820 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 Company did not identify any assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheets at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 820.

Due to the short-term nature of all financial assets and liabilities, their carrying value approximates their fair value as of the balance sheet date.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED

(D) Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are recorded at fair value on the date revenue is recognized. The Company provides allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to repay their obligation. If the financial condition of the Company's customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to repay, additional allowances may be required. The Company provides for potential uncollectible accounts receivable based on specific customer identification and historical collection experience adjusted for existing market conditions. If market conditions decline, actual collection experience may not meet expectations and may result in decreased cash flows and increased bad debt expense. As of September 30, 2018, the Company has recorded $24,242 as an allowance for bad debts compared to no allowance at December 31, 2017.

(E) Inventories

The Company’s inventories consist entirely of purchased finished goods. Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on the first-in, first-out basis. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 the Company has not recorded an allowance for the valuation of the inventory or inventory obsolescence.

(F) Fixed assets

Fixed assets consist of machinery, computer equipment, leasehold improvements and website costs which are capitalized at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated by using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which is three or seven years for all categories. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for betterments and renewals are capitalized. The cost of fixed assets and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts upon retirement or disposal with any resulting gain or loss being recorded in operations.

The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 350-50-15, "Accounting for Web Site Development Costs." Costs incurred in the planning stage of a website are expensed as research and development while costs incurred in the development stage are capitalized and amortized over the life of the asset, estimated to be three years. These assets are fully depreciated.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(F) Fixed assets (Continued)

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, $250 was expensed as non-capitalizable equipment which was previously capitalized as Machinery at December 31, 2017. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the company disposed of $2,976 of assets and its accompanying accumulated depreciation. During the year ended December 31, 2017 the Company identified leasehold improvements that were impaired in the amount of $300,000. The Company recognized a loss on the impairment of $221,328, reflected in the loss from discontinued operations. Depreciation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was $30,141 and $16,517 respectively.

On October 22, 2015, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in the principal amount of $300,000 to PDQ Auctions, LLC for leasehold improvements of the facilities subleased from PDQ Auctions, LLC. The note bears interest at an annual rate of 7% and was originally payable on or before October 22, 2017 (subsequently extended until May 2021, see below), unless the note was converted or prepaid prior to the maturity date. Subject to certain limitations below, the note may be converted at any time, at the option of the holder, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.35 per share, subject to adjustment. In the event the Company issues any new or additional promissory notes that pay an interest rate that exceeds 7% per annum, then the holder shall be entitled to request an increase in the interest rate payable on the note to an amount equal to the rate being paid on the new or additional notes (which occurred on September 22, 2017, see below). The conversion of the note may be limited if, upon conversion, the holder thereof would beneficially own more than 4.9% of the Company’s common stock. The note may be prepaid at the option of the Company commencing 190 days after the issuance of the note. On September 22, 2017, the Company issued a total of 200,000 shares of common stock valued at $72,000 ($0.38 per share) in conjunction with an extension of the note to April 22, 2018. The interest rate on the Note was also increased to 10% per annum. The modifications to the debt was reflected as a material modification in the Company’s quarter ended September 30, 2017. On May 2, 2018, the Company secured a three-year extension of the convertible note in return for (1) a $5,000 per month payment applicable to current interest and principal beginning on April 22, 2018, and (2) the issuance of 274,575 new, restricted common shares. The shares were issued on June 13, 2018. The Company has begun making payments but is not current with payments required by the extension. The modifications to this debt instrument is reflected as a material modification in the Company’s financial statements as of September 30, 2018 in the amount of $90,061 and reflected as a loss on extinguishment of debt on the Company’s statement of operations.

(G) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or a change in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company determined that no impairment was necessary.

(H) Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This standard provides a single set of guidelines for revenue recognition to be used across all industries and requires additional disclosures. The updated guidance introduces a five-step model to achieve its core principal of the entity recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted the updated guidance effective January 1, 2018 using the full retrospective method.

Under ASC 606, in order to recognize revenue, the Company is required to identify an approved contract with commitments to preform respective obligations, identify rights of each party in the transaction regarding goods to be transferred, identify the payment terms for the goods transferred, verify that the contract has commercial substance and verify that collection of substantially all consideration is probable. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have an impact on the Company’s operations or cash flows as it relates to revenue for Basalt America.

Amounts billed to customers in sales transactions related to shipping and handling, represent revenues earned for the goods provided and are included in net sales.

(H) Revenue Recognition (Continued)

Discontinued Operations

The Company recognized revenue from product sales to customers, distributors and resellers when products that do not require further services or installation by the Company are shipped, when there are no uncertainties surrounding customer acceptance and when collectability is reasonably assured in accordance with FASB ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, as amended and interpreted. Cash received by the Company prior to shipment was recorded as deferred revenue. Sales were made to customers under terms allowing certain limited rights of return and other limited product and performance warranties for which provision has been made in the accompanying financial statements.

(I) Loss Per Share

The basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company's net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. The diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company's net loss by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity.

(J) Stock-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes compensation costs to employees under FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Under FASB ASC Topic. 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.

Equity instruments issued to other than employees are recorded on the basis of the fair value of the instruments, as required by FASB ASC Topic 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees. In general, the measurement date is when either a (a) performance commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) the earlier of (i) the non-employee performance is complete or (ii) the instruments are vested. The measured value related to the instruments is recognized over a period based on the facts and circumstances of each particular grant as defined in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.

(K) Cost of Sales

Components of cost of sales include product costs and shipping costs to customers.

(L) Shipping and Handling Costs

The Company includes shipping and handling fees billed to customers as revenue and shipping and handling costs to customers as cost of revenue.

(M) Reclassification

Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

(N) Segment Information

In accordance with the provisions of ASC 280-10, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”, the Company is required to report financial and descriptive information about its reportable operating segments. The Company prior to March 19, 2018 when they decided to dispose of the electric bicycles and apparel lifestyle brands segment to focus entirely on the concrete reinforcement products made from basalt fiber, which was disposed of on September 30, 2018, had three segments in 2017. As a result of this strategic shift and in accordance with ASC 205-20-45-1E has reclassified two of these segments as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations. Therefore, the Company only operates in one segment and has not presented segment reporting for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.

(O) Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC Topic 740-10-25 ("ASC 740-10-25"). Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

On December 22, 2017, Public Law 115-97, informally referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“the TCJA”) was enacted into law. The TCJA provides for significant changes to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, that impact corporate taxation requirements. Effective January 1, 2018, the federal tax rate for corporations was reduced from 35% to 21% for US taxable income and requires one-time re-measurement of deferred taxes to reflect their value at a lower tax rate of 21%. Also, mandatory repatriation of untaxed foreign earnings and profits will be taxed at 15.5% to the extent the underlying assets are liquid and 8% on the remaining balance. There are other provisions to the TCJA, such as conversion of a worldwide system to a territorial system, limitations on interest expense and domestic production deductions, which will be effective in fiscal 2019. The Company anticipates its effective tax rate to be 28% to 30%, excluding the one-time impact of the TCJA for fiscal 2018 primarily due to the reduction in the federal tax rate. The Company’s actual effective tax rate for fiscal 2018 may differ from management’s estimate due to changes in interpretations and assumptions. Due to the timing of enactment and complexity of the TCJA, the Company is unable to estimate a reasonable range of the one-time impact associated with mandatory repatriation, re-measurement of deferred taxes and other provisions of the TCJA.

The Company does not anticipate any changes to its provision for income taxes for the tax bill that has gone into effect for fiscal years ending starting in 2018.

As of September 30, 2018, the Company had a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $10,284,000. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $8,200,000 available to offset future taxable income through 2037. All losses that occur after December 31, 2017, are available to offset future taxable income and do not expire. This results in deferred tax assets of approximately $3,000,000 and $2,500,000 as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, offset by a valuation allowance which was approximately $3,000,000 and $2,500,000 at September 30,2018 and December 31, 2017. The change in the valuation allowance from September 30, 2018 over December 31, 2017 was an increase of approximately $500,000. Tax returns for the last three years are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

As a result of the Hyperlocal acquisition in 2011 and Basalt America in 2017 and the corresponding change in ownership, the Company’s NOL’s are subject to a Section 382 limitation.

(P) Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements

Accounting guidance on non-controlling interests in consolidated financial statements requires that a non-controlling interest in the equity of a subsidiary be accounted for and reported as equity, provides revised guidance on the treatment of net income and losses attributable to the non-controlling interest and changes in ownership interests in a subsidiary and requires additional disclosures that identify and distinguish between the interests of the controlling and non-controlling owners. Net loss attributable to the non-controlling interests totaling $540 and $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively are included in the consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07 Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This ASU is intended to simplify aspects of share-based compensation issued to non-employees by making the guidance consistent accounting for employee share-based compensation. It is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2018-07 on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04 Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The amendments in this update are required for public business entities that have goodwill reported in their financial statements and have not elected the private company alternative for the subsequent measurement of goodwill. The update is intended to simplify the annual or interim goodwill impairment test. A public business entity that is a U.S. SEC filer should adopt the amendments in this update for its annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is assessing the impact, if any, of implementing this guidance on its financial position and results of operations.

NOTE 3 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (CONTINUED)

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments”. The amendments in this update provided guidance on eight specific cash flow issues. This update is to provide specific guidance on each of the eight issues, thereby reducing the diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 31, 2017. The Company believes that the adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

In February 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases. The new guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period and is applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is assessing the impact, if any, of implementing this guidance on its financial position and results of operations.

There are several other new accounting pronouncements issued or proposed by the FASB. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. Management does not believe any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or operating results.

NOTE 4 – ACQUISITION OF BASALT AMERICA

On February 21, 2017, the Company executed a membership interest purchase agreement to acquire 100% of the membership interests of Basalt America. In consideration of the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Basalt America, the Company issued an aggregate of 95,500,000 restricted shares of its common stock to the members of Basalt America. As of December 31, 2016, Basalt America had 80,500,000 membership units outstanding. For accounting purposes, the transaction was recorded at historical cost in accordance with ASU 805-50-25-2 as this is considered an acquisition of entities under common control as the board of directors of the Company and of Basalt America are the same and control the activities of the respective companies.

As the acquisition of Basalt America was deemed to be a transaction between entities under common control, the assets and liabilities were transferred at the historical cost of Basalt America with prior periods retroactively adjusted to include the historical financial results of the acquired company for the period ended December 31, 2016 that were controlled by the previous owners of the Company.

The Company consolidated the total assets and liabilities of Basalt America. Since the consolidation was done retrospectively, the Company adjusted the beginning balances as if the transaction occurred on November 18, 2016 (Inception).

NOTE 5 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On March 19, 2018, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the disposal of HLM Paymeon, Inc. and Paymeon Brands, Inc. as they made a strategic shift into the basalt fiber reinforced polymer business with the acquisition of Basalt America. The disposal of HLM Paymeon, Inc. was effective September 30, 2018. As a result of this disposal under ASC 205-20-45-1E, the Company has presented the assets and liabilities of this segment as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations and have reclassified the prior year balances to reflect this strategic shift.

NOTE 7 – NOTE PAYABLE – CONVERTIBLE

On September 22, 2017, the Company issued a total of 200,000 shares of common stock valued at $72,000 ($0.38 per share) in conjunction with an extension of the note to April 22, 2018. The interest rate on the Note was also increased to 10% per annum. In accordance with ASC 470-50 Debt Modifications and Extinguishments, the issuance of the 200,000 shares having a market value of $72,000 at the point of issuance effectively created a new debt instrument due the present value of the cash flow under the terms of the new debt instrument was at least 10 percent different from the present value of the remaining cash flow under the terms of the original instrument using a discount rate 7% based on the original debt issuance rate. As a result, the modification to this debt instrument has been reflected as a material modification in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017. On May 2, 2018, the Company secured a three-year extension of the convertible note in return for (1) a $5,000 per month payment applicable evenly towards interest and principal beginning on April 22, 2018, and (2) the issuance of 274,575 new, restricted common shares. The shares were issued on June 13, 2018. The interest on the Note shall be 10% for the remaining life of the subject loan. However, if the Company enters into any additional agreements obligating itself to pay interest in excess of 10% per annum, the Company shall timely notify Lender, and shall provide copies of any such obligation. In that event, the interest rate for the Note and this Amendment shall be changed to equal interest being paid under the other obligations. The Company has begun making monthly payments but is not current as required by the extension, and is therefore in default under this agreement. As a result, the Company has classified this not as a current liability. Additionally, as a result of this extension, the modification to this debt instrument will be reflected as a material modification in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 in the amount of $90,061.

We may not actually achieve the plans, projections or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and actual results, developments or events could differ materially from those disclosed in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including without limitation those described from time to time in our future reports filed with the SEC.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

On March 16, 2011 PayMeOn, Inc., a Nevada corporation organized on May 30, 2006 (the "Company" or “PayMeOn”) completed its agreement and plan of merger (the "Merger Agreement") to acquire Hyperlocal Marketing, LLC, a Florida limited liability company ("Hyperlocal"), pursuant to which Hyperlocal merged with and into HLM PayMeOn, Inc., a Florida corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Hyperlocal members received 301,296 shares of the Company common stock, which equals approximately 50.1% of the total shares of the Company issued and outstanding following the merger on a fully diluted basis. In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360-10-45-15, the transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition. Hyperlocal was considered the accounting acquirer and the acquire was the Company since the members of Hyperlocal obtained voting and management control of the Company and the transaction has been accounted for as a reverse merger and recapitalization.

During the first quarter of 2017 we acquired the exclusive rights as licensee to manufacture and distribute concrete reinforcement products in various territories (see below) under the Basalt America name. Prior to entering into the license, we primarily sold electric bicycles and opportunistically operated our apparel business, known as Paymeon Brands. During the first quarter of 2018, our board of directors approved a plan to discontinue our electric bicycle and apparel businesses. This disposal occurred effective September 30, 2018. Going forward, our primary focus and resources will continue to be on our concrete reinforcement products business known as Basalt America.

On April 13,2018, Edward A. Cespedes resigned as the chairman and chief executive officer of our Company and all our subsidiaries.

On April 13, 2018, Vincent L. Celentano was appointed chairman and chief executive officer of our Company and all our subsidiaries. Mr. Celentano is the largest individual shareholder of our Company.

On August 8, 2018, the Company entered into a six-month agreement with David Anderson to act as its Interim Chief Executive Officer and Interim Principal Financial Officer.

On August 13, 2018, the Company formed a new wholly-owned subsidiary, Basanite Industries, LLC. Basanite Industries, LLC was incorporated in Delaware and has not yet commenced operations.

On August 16, 2018, the Company accepted the resignation of Vincent L. Celentano as Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer.

BASALT AMERICA

In February 2017, we acquired 100% of the membership interests of Basalt America, LLC. Basalt America leverages its licensed intellectual property, technology and processes to produce Basalt Fiber Reinforced Polymer products that are used as replacements for steel products such as “rebar” that reinforce concrete. In March 2017, we announced our intention to change our parent Company name from Paymeon, Inc. to Basalt America, Inc., in order to better reflect the primary focus of our Company going forward.

Basalt America is the exclusive licensee under a license agreement with Global Energy Sciences for its concrete reinforcement products known as RockRebar®, RockStirrups®, RockMesh®, and RockStaples™. The license provides Basalt America with exclusivity for the United States, (excluding California and Hawaii), the Caribbean (excluding Cuba), and Peru. It also provides that Basalt America shall have a right of first refusal for all other territories in the world.

Manufacture of concrete reinforcement products made from basalt fiber create substantial benefits for the construction industry, including but not limited to:

No corrosion – steel reinforcement products rust, our products do not

Sustainability and Lifecycle – production of our products results in exceptionally low “carbon footprint.” Lack of corrosion allows the “lifespan” of projects to be much longer

Cost – the physical nature of our products relative to steel (much lighter, easily transportable, “spoolable”) reduces the all-in cost of reinforcement products when factors such as transportation and liability are considered

We believe that macroeconomic factors, such as global infrastructure in need of repair, trends towards the consideration of lifespan of projects, and their environmental impact, position our Company to benefit from the construction industry’s growing interest in the use of alternative reinforcement materials.

Since completion of our acquisition of Basalt America, we have moved our headquarters to a facility located in Oakland Park, Florida that is approximately 14,000 square feet in size. During the second quarter, we began preparation of the facility for production. The facility has the ability to produce approximately two to three miles of basalt fiber reinforced polymer rebar per day.

During the second quarter of 2017, we also created two joint ventures to manage defined Territories within our licensed geography. We created Basalt America Territory 1, LLC to manage the sales, distribution and marketing of our products for Dade, Broward, and Monroe Counties in the State of Florida. The joint venture is owned 55.3% by Basalt America and 44.7% by investors, including a related party. We also created Basalt America Territory 2, LLC to manage the sales, distribution and marketing of our products for the state of Rhode Island. The joint venture is to be owned 50% by Basalt America and 50% by a third-party investor. Basalt America Territory 2, LLC has not yet been formalized and has not yet commenced operations.

The joint ventures will buy product for resale from Basalt America with dedicated production capacity paid for by the joint ventures.

During the third and fourth quarters of 2017, we began creating technical documentation and other processes to support the introduction of our products to the construction industry. We commenced discussions (introductory and educational) with various members of the construction industry, including architects, engineers, real estate developers, city and state governmental entities, distributors and other industry organizations. During the third and fourth quarters, we engaged additional sales and engineering consultants to assist with quantifying the benefits of using our products over traditional reinforcement products. In addition, we created processes to facilitate the use of our products by (1) providing project managers with the ability to submit existing project plans to us for review regarding how they would be amended for use of our reinforcement products. This provides the opportunity for project managers to understand the potential labor, material, insurance and other cost savings; and (2) arranging for project managers to have the ability to seek out “delegate” engineering services in the event their project engineers lack the experience working with composites.

During the first quarter of 2018, we realized our first “substantial” sale. We sold various diameters of our basalt fiber rebar to a golf course resort project being developed in Palm Beach, Florida. The sale represented approximately 76% of our sales for the quarter and gave us our first opportunity to test our processes for delivery of medium to large size orders, including inventory control, shipping and handling, and other logistics-related processes. The products were delivered in a timely fashion and the customer was invoiced. We expect that a substantial number of customers will request terms for payment. We believe that we will need to grant customers anywhere from 30 to 90 days to complete payment in order to be competitive. We recognize that there is risk associated with granting terms to certain customers in the construction industry. Accordingly, we are exploring methods of protecting our interests through the filing of liens against projects to which we deliver our products prior to payment being made.

Going forward, we expect to continue making investments in our Basalt America operations. We will require capital to, among other things, (1) continue upgrading our facilities management, production and testing capabilities, (2) continue the pursuit of an evaluation service report from the International Code Council (ICC – ES), (3) continue engaging the industry and industry experts with education initiatives,(4) purchase of raw materials and other goods and services related to our manufacturing needs, (5) upgrade our management and sales teams, (6) continue to meet obligations under our license and other agreements, particularly as they pertain to distribution, (7) continued research and development around new products being developed in the concrete reinforcement industry, and (8) other general working capital needs. We believe we will require at least $3.5 million in additional capital from the date of this report through the remainder of 2018. We will likely fund this investment through the issuance of equity or convertible notes to accredited investors.

Discontinued Operations

Revenue-During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 revenue from discontinued operations was $0 and $16,460 compared to $16,460 and $37,909 for the same period in the prior year. The revenue in the current year was due to an agency agreement from the discontinued clothing segment. Revenue in the prior year resulted primarily from the clothing unit in the amount of $25,618 and $12,291 from the bicycle segment.

Cost of goods sold - During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 cost of goods sold from discontinued operations was $0 and $35,383 compared to a credit of $746 and a cost of $39,663 for the same period in the prior year. The cost of goods sold in the current year was higher due to residual costs from prior periods.

Loss on disposal of fixed assets - During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, there was no expense compared to $221,328 during the same period in the prior year. The loss was due to a Company identified leasehold improvements that were impaired in the amount of $300,000. The Company recognized a loss on the impairment of $221,328, reflected in the loss from discontinued operations.

Results of Operations

Revenue - Revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 were $2,237 and $86,389 compared to no revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, as a result of sales of basalt fiber rebar. The increase in basalt fiber rebar sales was the result of our first substantial sale to a golf course resort development in Palm Beach, Florida. The sale to this development accounted for approximately 76% of our sales through September 30, 2018. We had other, nominal sales during the first quarter as well. Through September 30, 2018, all of the Company’s basalt fiber rebar sales were delivered in Florida.

Cost of Goods Sold

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 the Company had cost of sales of $2,976 and $89,963 compared to no cost of goods sold for the same period in the prior year from continuing operations. Cost of goods sold consisted of the following:


	For the three months ended September 30,				For the three nine months ended September 30,
	2018		2017		2018		2017
Product cost	$	2,436	$	—	$	81,600	$	—
Shipping cost		450		—		4,907		—
Sales commission		90		—		3,456		—
Total cost of goods sold	$	2,976	$	—	$	89,963	$	—

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company had a negative gross margin from continuing operations in the amount of $739 and $3,574. The Company lost money on a gross margin basis due to inefficiencies in the start-up process and extremely narrow margins on the initial sales of products. The Company is initiating sales at low margins to try to gain market share and gain exposure to the product. In the future, as the Company's product gains acceptance it is expected for margins to increase. Due to the discontinuance of prior operations the Company had no gross margin from continuing operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

Operating Expenses

Professional fees - During the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 professional fees were $104,537 compared to $68,291 for the same period in the prior year. The increased cost was due to higher legal expense in the current period resulting from threatening litigation from its supplier.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 professional fees were $194,907 compared to $208,342 for the same period in the prior year. The decrease of $49,681 was due to lower accounting fees offset by higher legal fees in the prior year resulting from the acquisition of Basalt America.

Payroll and payroll taxes - During the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 payroll fees and taxes were $41,061 and $88,672. The decrease of $47,611 was due to the departure of former Chief Executive Officer, Ed Cespedes on April 13, 2018.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 payroll fees and taxes were $207,493 and $222,670 for the same period in the prior year. The decrease of $15,177 was due to the departure of former Chief Executive Officer, Ed Cespedes on April 13, 2018 offset by more employees in support of the basalt fiber rebar.

Consulting - During the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 consulting fees were $198,417 compared to $97,526 for the same period in the prior year. The increase was due to increased amounts paid in stock and cash to senior management consultants.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 consulting fees were $418,108 compared to $452,316 for the same period in the prior year. The decrease of $34,208 was due to a stock grant to a director of the Company of 250,000 shares valued at $62,500 as well as fees paid relative to the RAW license agreement in the prior year offset by increase was due to increased amounts paid in stock and cash to senior management consultants.

General and administrative - During the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 general and administrative expenses were $804,840 compared to $278,632 for the same period in the prior year. The increase of $526,208 was due to higher stock-based compensation and stock option expense due to the recognition of deferred cost as a result of multiple stock based compensation consulting agreements.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 general and administrative expenses were $1,592,901 compared to $382,555 for the same period in the prior year.

Bad debt expense - During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 bad debt expense of $24,242 compared to no expense in the same period in the prior year as a result of sales in the current period where the collectability of those sales are doubtful as to their collectability. There was no bad debt expense in the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Other Expenses

Interest on judgement - During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 interest on judgement was $4,655 and $13,815 compared to $4,604 and $9,158 in the same period in the prior year.

Interest expense - During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 interest expense was $25,881 and $69,129 compared to $23,531and $74,987 for the same period in the prior year. The decrease of $5,858 was due to amortization of debt discount in the prior period offset by increased issuance of interest bearing notes in the current year.

Loss on extinguishment of debt – During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 the Company recorded a loss on the extinguishment of debt in the amount of $90,061 as a result of modification to an existing note in order to secure a three-year extension of the convertible note. This expense is a result of the fair value of the issuance of 274,575 restricted common shares given as partial consideration for the extension. The shares were issued on June 13, 2018. Additionally, the Company agreed to pay $5,000 per month payment applicable to current interest and principal beginning on April 22, 2018. The Company has begun making monthly payments but is not current as required by the extension. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recorded a loss on the extinguishment of debt of $72,000 to extend certain notes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since inception, the Company has incurred net operating losses and used cash in operations. As of September 30, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $17,860,917. The Company has also dedicated substantial resources to research and development and marketing of the Company’s products which included the general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development. We expect operating losses to continue due to the anticipated costs to develop our Basalt America business. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. We require additional financing for the development of the Basalt America business.

We have historically satisfied our working capital requirements through the sale of restricted common stock and the issuance of promissory notes. This has continued through the third quarter of 2018 and will continue until we have cash flow to cover our expenses.

At September 30, 2018 the Company had cash of $103,828 compared to $188,738 at December 31, 2017.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company issued 6,588,299 common shares for total proceeds of $895,240, as well as borrowing $416,325 from the issuance of short-term notes payable from related parties, including $50,000 from a credit line from former CEO and now a consultant of the Company. Notwithstanding proceeds from the sale of our common stock this year, current working capital is not sufficient to maintain our current operations and there is no assurance that future sales and marketing efforts will be successful enough to achieve the level of revenue sufficient to provide cash to sustain operations. To the extent such revenues and corresponding cash flows do not materialize, we will attempt to fund working capital requirements through third party financing, including a private placement of our securities. In the absence of revenues, we currently believe we require a minimum of $3,000,000 to maintain our current operations through the next twelve months. We cannot provide any assurances that required capital will be obtained or that the terms of such required capital may be acceptable to us. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing, we may reduce our operating activities until sufficient funding is secured or revenues are generated to support operating activities.

Cash Flows

Net cash used in operating activities amounted to $1,294,139 and $3,050,861 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we used $2,935 cash for investing activities compared to $6,881 during the same period in the prior fiscal year for the purchasing of equipment.

During the three nine months ended September 30, 2018, we had $1,212,164 cash provided by financing activities through demand notes from related parties in the amount of $416,325 (net of $15,900 in repayments) and the sale of stock in the amount of $845,739 offset by the repayment of notes payable in the amount of $34,000. During the three nine months ended September 30, 2017, $2,997,658 was provided from investing activities from the sale of stock in the amount of $2,372,428, proceeds from the issuance of notes payable of $215,000 offset by payments for purchase order financing and payments to related parties totaling $73,520. Additionally, the Company received $483,750 proceeds from investment in joint venture.

We do not believe that our cash on hand at September 30, 2018 will be sufficient to fund our current working capital requirements as we try to develop a new business line. We will continue to seek additional equity financing. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful in our equity private placements or if we are that the terms will be beneficial to our shareholders.

Risk Factors

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risk factors included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, before deciding whether to invest in the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, may also impair our business operations or our financial condition.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to be effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The Company’s management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Interim Chief Executive Officer and Interim Principal Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2018.

During our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2018 management identified material weaknesses related to (i) the U.S. GAAP expertise of our internal accounting staff, (ii) the ability of our internal accounting staff to record our transactions to which we are a party which necessitates our bringing in external consultants to supplement this function, and (iii) a lack of segregation of duties within accounting functions. Therefore, our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of September 30, 2018 based on the material weaknesses described below.

insufficient systems for timely entering new inventory items and point of sales;

insufficient monitoring controls to determine the adequacy of our internal control over financial reporting and related policies and procedures;

lack of competent financial management personnel with appropriate accounting knowledge and training;

our management team does not hold a license such as Certified Public Accountant in the U.S., nor have they attended U.S. institutions or extended educational programs that would provide enough of the relevant education relating to U.S. GAAP, nor have any U.S. GAAP audit experience;

we rely on an outside consultant to prepare our financial statements; and

insufficient controls over our period-end financial close and reporting processes.

As a result of these material weaknesses, our Interim Chief Executive Officer and Interim Principal Financial Officer concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 2018. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness; yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of the Company’s financial reporting.

Because of its inherent limitations, however, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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 and procedures may deteriorate. In order to mitigate the foregoing material weakness, we engaged an outside accounting consultant to assist us in the preparation of our financial statements to ensure that these financial statements are prepared in conformity to U.S. GAAP. This outside accounting consultant has significant experience in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. We believe that the engagement of this consultant will lessen the possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis, and we will continue to monitor the effectiveness of this action and make any changes that our management deems appropriate. We expect to continue to rely on this outside consulting arrangement to supplement our internal accounting staff for the foreseeable future. Until such time as we hire the proper internal accounting staff with the requisite U.S. GAAP experience, however, it is unlikely we will be able to remediate the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.

We believe that the foregoing steps will remediate the material weaknesses identified above, and we will continue to monitor the effectiveness of these steps and make any changes that our management deems appropriate.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

During the period covered by this report we have sold the securities below without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, under the exemption provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The securities contain legends restricting their transferability absent registration or applicable exemption. No fees of commissions were paid in connection with any of the transactions. Proceeds were used for working capital purposes.

During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company issued 4,150,000 common shares which it sold for $320,000 (3,800,000 shares at $0.075 per share, and 350,000 shares at $0.10 per share). Proceeds were used to fund operations.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company issued 4,500,000 common shares under consulting agreements.

On August 15, 2018, RVRM agreed to convert $90,000 principal amount of notes outstanding for 1,200,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock ($0.075 per share). Ronald J. LoRicco, Sr., a member of our board of directors is the manager of RVRM.

On August 16, 2018, CAM Group of Florida agreed to convert $200,000 principal amount of notes outstanding for 2,666,667 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock ($0.075 per share).

As part of this agreement, associated accrued interest at the time of conversion, in the amount of $20,329 was forgiven by the noteholder.

ITEM 3.

DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

On September 22, 2017, the Company issued a total of 200,000 shares of common stock valued at $72,000 ($0.38 per share) in conjunction with an extension of the note to April 22, 2018. The interest rate on the Note was also increased to 10% per annum. In accordance with ASC 470-50 Debt Modifications and Extinguishments, the issuance of the 200,000 shares having a market value of $72,000 at the point of issuance effectively created a new debt instrument due the present value of the cash flow under the terms of the new debt instrument was at least 10 percent different from the present value of the remaining cash flow under the terms of the original instrument using a discount rate 7% based on the original debt issuance rate. As a result, the modification to this debt instrument has been reflected as a material modification in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017. On May 2, 2018, the Company secured a three-year extension of the convertible note in return for (1) a $5,000 per month payment applicable to current interest and principal beginning on April 22, 2018, and (2) the issuance of 274,575 new, restricted common shares. The shares were issued on June 13, 2018. The Company has begun making monthly payments but is not current as required by the extension. As a result of this extension, the modification to this debt instrument was reflected as a material modification in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 in the amount of $90,061. Due to the fact that the Company is in default with regards to monthly payments, it has classified this note as a current liability. The Company is working with the noteholder, attempting to remedy this default.
