Executive Overview


Electronic Servitor Publication Network Inc. (formerly CannAssist International Corp.) was incorporated on May 17, 2017 under the laws of the State of Delaware to engage in any lawful corporate undertaking, including, but not limited to, selected mergers and acquisitions. The Company has developed a technology platform that is specifically designed for esports professionals and gamers. The platform's functionality will allow its publishing users with omni-channel and technology agnostic streaming functionality so that users can better engage with their audiences on a global level. The platform will also provide in depth engagement analytics. We believe that many esports professionals find it very difficult to showcase their talents while managing the distribution aspects of their careers. The platform will provide these individuals with an easy-to-use solution. The platform will also have content that provides news and information about esports.

The Company's corporate offices are located at 400 1ST Ave N., Ste. 100, Minneapolis, MN 55401. The Company's email website is www.electronicservitor.com. The Company's telephone number is (612) 414-7121.

The Company's common stock trades on the OTCQB Venture Market under the stock ticker symbol XESP.

On July 1, 2021, Mark Palumbo, a former officer and director of the Company, and Forty 7 Select Holdings LLC, an entity controlled by Greg Shockey (who was an existing shareholder of the Company), entered into an agreement pursuant to which Mark Palumbo transferred all of his 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (representing 100% of the Company's issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Stock), of the Company to Forty 7 Select Holdings LLC in a private transaction. The Series A Preferred Stock provides the holder thereof the right to vote 60% of the Company's voting shares on any and all shareholder matters and thereby constituted a change of control of the Company. Further, Mark Palumbo contributed 7,500,000 shares of common stock held by him to the treasury of the Company for cancellation at no cost (the "Contribution").

On July 23, 2021, the Company entered into a Technology License Agreement with Phitech Management, LLC, an entity controlled by Peter Hager ("Licensor"), whereby, at Closing, the Company shall be granted a license (the "License") to use, market, promote and distribute certain technology related to Electronic Sports Gaming, related patent applications, related trade-secrets and associated knowhow, including methods, techniques, specifications, procedures, information, systems, knowledge and business processes required to practice and carry on business in the field of data collection, security and management (the "Technology"). The initial term of the License is 10-years (the "Initial Term") and shall automatically be renewed for successive 1-year terms (each, a "Renewal Term") unless the Company elects to terminate the License by giving 30 days' written notice prior to commencement of a Renewal Term. In exchange for the License of the Technology, the Company shall issue to the Licensor 10,000,000 restricted shares of its common stock (which is an amount equal to $2,500,000 divided by $0.25, which was the closing market price of the Company's common stock on the trading day prior to the effective date of the License Agreement).

On July 23, 2021, the Company and Mark Palumbo entered into an agreement (the "Spin-Off Agreement") whereby, at the Closing, the Company shall transfer 100% of the issued and outstanding membership units of Xceptor LLC, an entity that was a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, to Mark Palumbo (along with the assets and liabilities associated with the prior business) for nominal consideration as a condition of the Change-in-Control (the "Spin-Off"). Furthermore, at the Closing, that certain Technology License Agreement entered into by and between the Company and Mark Palumbo dated April 29, 2019 (the "Palumbo License Agreement") shall be terminated and the Company shall assign all rights to the underlying Intellectual Property (as defined in the Palumbo License Agreement) to Mark Palumbo.

On September 28, 2021, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company was amended to effect a change in the Company's name from "CannAssist International Corp." to "The Electronic Servitor Publication Network, Inc." (the "Name Change").

On October 9, 2021, the Closing of the Technology License Agreement occurred whereby the Company received the License to the Technology and the Licensor shall be 10,000,000 restricted shares of the Company's common stock, at a cost basis of $0.25 per share.

On October 9, 2021, the Closing of the Spin-Off Agreement occurred whereby 100% of the issued and outstanding membership units of Xceptor LLC was transferred to Mark Palumbo (along with the assets and liabilities associated with the prior business) in exchange for nominal consideration and the Palumbo License Agreement was terminated.

Effective October 9, 2021, as a result of the transactions described above, the business of the Company changed to focus on Electronic Sports Gaming technology and the development of related infrastructure, specifically the development and commercialization of a technology platform specifically designed for the Electronic Sports and Electronic Gaming markets. The platform will provide an omni-channel publishing tool, with talent identity protection and monetization tools provided in line with interaction and media creation services. Further publication and monetization products and services will be developed and acquired to support these efforts.

The Company anticipates that it would need approximately $1,500,000 over the next 12 months to continue as a going concern, satisfy its capital commitments and continue its operations in accordance with its current business plan. In addition to revenues generated from sales, the Chief Executive Officer and several shareholders may fund the Company's operations, if needed, during the next 12 months or until the Company can generate an ongoing source of capital sufficient to independently continue its operations.

For the period ended December 31, 2021, the Company's independent auditors issued a report raising substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon financial support from its principal stockholders, its ability to obtain necessary equity financing, or its ability to sell its services to generate consistent profitability.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies

The preparation 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 the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Note 2 to the Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Financial Statements. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, contingencies and taxes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The following critical accounting policies are impacted significantly by judgments, assumptions, and estimates used in the preparation of the Financial Statements.

We are subject to various loss contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. We consider the likelihood of loss or impairment of an asset or the incurrence of a liability, as well as our ability to reasonably estimate the amount of loss in determining loss contingencies. An estimated loss contingency is accrued when management concludes that it is probable that an asset has been impaired, or a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. We regularly evaluate current information available to us to determine whether such accruals should be adjusted.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources and would be considered material to investors.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
