APPSOFT TECHNOLOGIES, INC. Forward Looking Statements
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or Report.
The information in this discussion and elsewhere in this Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Such statements are based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. Any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. For example, the words "may," "will," "believe," "anticipate," "plan," "expect," "intend," "could," "estimate," "continue" and similar expressions or variations identify forward-looking statements.
Although we believe that we have a reasonable basis for each forward-looking statement contained in this Report, we caution you that these statements are based on a combination of facts and factors currently known by us and our projections of the future, about which we cannot be certain. We caution you that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and that our actual results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and the development of the industry in which we operate may differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this Report. Factors that might cause such a discrepancy include, but are not limited to:
· Our failure to develop or acquire and publish new Apps that achieve market
acceptance or we do not continue to enhance our existing Apps.
· Our inability to maintain a good relationship with the markets where our
Apps are distributed.
· Our inability to keep pace with technological changes and market
conditions in the Apps industry.
· Our inability to compete against a wide range of companies that market
Apps, many of which have significantly greater resources than we do.
· Our ability to obtain financing as and when needed on acceptable terms.
We caution readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements
made by us, which speak only as of the date they are made. We disclaim any
obligation, except as specifically required by law and the rules of the
Overview
We market, sell and distribute our games through direct-to-consumer digital
storefronts, which currently comprises

We are seeking to develop and acquire new Apps to expand our existing product offerings. We rely on third party designers, developers and programs to develop new Apps. We also solicit ideas for new titles from unrelated parties. We evaluate prospects based on a variety of factors. If we conclude that a particular prospect is worth pursuing, we may fund the development of the App through launch and beyond.
Over the last decade, mobile devices, including smartphone and tablets, have proliferated extensively around the world across a wide range of demographic groups. The Apps industry has experienced corresponding growth in the number of downloads, the number and types of Apps published. We believe that there will continue to be an increase in the number of smartphones and tablets sold. In addition, technological advances to these devices, including more powerful smartphones and tablets with larger screens provide a platform for more diverse Apps and make games more fun and visually appealing. We believe that technological developments will continue to drive growth in our industry for the foreseeable future.
Growth Strategies and Outlook
Our principal growth strategy entails developing and acquiring new Apps to supplement our existing Apps portfolio. Our primary focus will be to release new game titles. We seek to solicit new games and concepts that we may acquire from third parties. We also will seek to develop and publish free-to-play games. Free-to-play games are games that a player can download and play for free, but which allow players to access a variety of additional content and features for a fee, through "in-app purchases" utilizing virtual currency that may be purchased through digital storefronts, and to engage with various advertisements and offers that generate revenues for us. We may seek to acquire franchises around which we develop games, including movies, television programs, toys and other cultural phenomena that lend themselves to gamification.
We have been constrained in our development and acquisition activities by a lack of cash. Our ability to pursue and achieve our objectives is predicated on our receipt of meaningful revenue from sales of our existing Apps and those we may release in the future and from our ability to raise capital from outside sources.
Our revenues will depend significantly on growth in the mobile games market and
our ability to develop or acquire and publish Apps that are well-received by
consumers. In addition, because our products are purchased with disposable
income, our success is dependent on the overall strength of the economy in
Our revenues also will depend on maintaining our continued good relationship
with the digital storefront operators, namely Apple and
Our ability to achieve and sustain profitability will depend not only on our ability to generate meaningful our revenues, but also on our ability to manage our operating expenses. Currently, we have one full-time employee, who receives compensation when and as determined by the board of directors. For the foreseeable further, we expect to utilize the services of independent contractors and consultants, who we believe are readily available for our purposes, in order to manage our personnel costs. We also will continue to maintain a virtual office as long as our operations permit us to do so to contain our office space overhead.
We require significant additional capital to fund the development of Apps in process that we have developed internally or acquired from third parties during the last year. We also require capital to fund marketing initiatives for our existing products and the launch and marketing of Apps in development. We cannot be sure that the additional capital we require will be available on acceptable terms or at all. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms or at all, we may be unable to develop or enhance our services and products, take advantage of future opportunities, repay debt obligations as they become due, or respond to competitive pressures, any of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate adequate amounts of cash to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. Significant factors in the management of liquidity are funds generated by operations, the availability of credit facilities, levels of accounts receivable and accounts payable and capital expenditures.
As of
Since our inception, we have financed our operations through the sale of equity securities, from third party loans and from internally generated revenue from operations.
During the three months ended
Over the last two years, we have been borrowing funds from ESFI and its related
parties to fund our operations in part. As of
14
Our primary requirements for liquidity and capital are to fund the development and acquisition of new Apps and for sales and marketing initiatives in connection with the launch and promotion of our games, as well as for working capital to fund our general corporate needs, including filing reports under the federal securities laws. We work with independent game designers, developers and programmers who provide us with new ideas and titles to publish. We also are soliciting new games and concepts that we may acquire from third parties. When we receive an idea for a new App, we research the commercial viability of the concept, undertaking an analysis of the cost to develop the App against its potential economic return. If we determine that the App is commercially viable, we may fund the cost of development, publication and marketing. Upon completion of development we will own the App title. Developing and publishing free-to-play games will require considerable capital to develop, maintain and update, particularly games we may seek to develop around popular movie, television, toy other cultural phenomena that lend themselves to gamification.
Since our customers pay for their purchases by credit or debit card at the time of sale, neither inventories nor receivables are relevant to our business.
We do not have any cash on hand and we have not generated meaningful cash flow from operations sufficient to support our operations. We have been selling securities to third parties and borrowing cash to fund our minimal operations during the period. As noted above, we require significant cash to effectuate all of our desired development and acquisition strategies and in connection with launching, marketing and promoting our games. We will continue to seek to fund acquisitions and to engage third party developers partially through the issuance of securities. However, our future operations are dependent on our ability to secure additional financing. Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities or through other financing mechanisms. However, we cannot assure investors that we will be able to securities such financing on terms favorable to us, if at all. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect significant amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. The inability to obtain additional capital may restrict our ability to grow and may reduce our ability to continue to conduct business operations. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may have to curtail our marketing and development plans and possibly cease our operations.

Going Concern
The notes to our financial statements for the quarter ended
15
The presence of the going concern explanatory paragraph suggests that we may not have sufficient liquidity, or minimum cash levels, to operate our business. Since our inception, we have incurred losses and anticipate that we will continue to incur losses until such time as our Apps generate sufficient revenue to offset our research and development, general and administrative and sales and marketing expenses. We will need to raise additional capital to fund our near-term operational plans described elsewhere in this report. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in our operational plans. We cannot be sure that the additional capital we require will be available on acceptable terms or at all. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms or at all, we may be unable to develop or enhance our services and products, take advantage of future opportunities, repay debt obligations as they become due, or respond to competitive pressures, any of which would have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations.
Off-Balance Sheet and Other Arrangements
We do not engage in any activities involving variable interest entities or off-balance sheet arrangements.
Inflation
We do not believe that inflation has had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. If our costs were to become subject to significant inflationary pressures, we might not be able to fully offset these higher costs through price increases. Our inability or failure to do so could harm our business, operating results and financial condition.
