Overview
Wewards, Inc. ("Wewards" or "the Company") was incorporated in the state of
Nevada on September 10, 2013 as Betafox Corp., with the initial intent to
manufacture and sell color candles. On April 26, 2015, Giorgos Kallides (the
"Seller"), entered into an agreement with Future Continental Limited
("Purchaser"), pursuant to which, on May 11, 2015, the Seller sold to Purchaser
six million (6,000,000) shares of common stock of the Company (the "Shares")
owned by the Seller, constituting approximately 73.8% of the Company's 8,130,000
issued and outstanding common shares at such time, for $340,000. In October
2015, the Purchaser sold the 6,000,000 Shares to Mr. Lei Pei, an affiliate of
the Purchaser, in consideration of Mr. Pei's agreement to serve as our director
and CEO. On January 8, 2018, by consent of Lei Pei as the Company's principal
shareholder, the Company changed its name to Wewards, Inc. The Company's
corporate office is located in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The Company has developed and is the owner of a web-based platform accessible by
mobile apps (the "Platform") that will enable consumers to purchase goods from
merchants and earn rebates payable in the form of Bitcoin. The Platform provides
an innovative Bitcoin rewards ecosystem. It is designed to transform traditional
concepts of commerce into a cooperative society where both merchants and
consumers are collaborating, utilizing Bitcoin to reward consumers. The
ecosystem provides consumers with rewards each time they complete a challenge
defined by a merchant. This is intended to make the ecommerce process beneficial
to all market participants, and to help distribute commercial wealth among and
between the merchants and consumers. The Company intends to generate revenue by
licensing "white-label" versions of the Platform to third parties. However, to
date, no such license agreement has been entered into, and the Company has not
generated any revenues.
On April 2, 2020, the Company purchased intellectual property rights ("IP") from
United Power, a Nevada Corporation under common ownership with Lei Pei, the
Company's sole officer and director and majority shareholder, for cash
consideration of $179,300, based on a price determined by an independent
valuation.
The IP consists of technology and related rights associated with the game
Megopoly, an MMO (Massively Multiplayer Online Game). Megopoly is expected to be
the first MMO 3-D board game in the world, where players will be able to earn
fractions of Bitcoins (satoshi) through buying, selling, and managing virtual
real estate properties using in-game currency (Megopoly Coins). The game will be
similar in some respects to Monopoly.
The game will allow players around the world to interact with each other online.
Players travel (move) through different parts of a city, earning profit by
investing in properties, charging rent, acquiring bonus assets, and selling
their properties to other players for in-game currency. A player will be able to
progress to higher levels of "cities" at any time.
The player's goal in Megopoly is to earn Megopoly Coins by investing in
properties and collecting rent from other players. Players can keep playing the
game using their Megopoly Coins for the opportunity to earn more coins, or they
can exchange those coins for Bitcoins based on real-time market exchange rates.
Megopoly will be playable at any time through a web browser on a PC, tablet or
smart phone, initially in Chinese, and in English in the near future. The game
has been designed for players of all skill levels.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The following is a summary of the Company's cash flows used in operating,
investing, and financing activities for the nine-month periods ended February
29, 2020 and February 28, 2019:
2020 2019
Operating Activities $ (259,298 ) $ (762,459 )
Investing Activities - (432,200 )
Financing Activities - (4,965,000 )
Net Increase (Decrease) in Cash $ (259,298 ) $ (6,159,659 )
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
We have not generated positive cash flows from operating activities. During the
nine months ended February 29, 2020, net cash flows used in operating activities
was $259,298. For the same period ended February 28, 2019, net cash flows used
in operating activities was $762,459. The decrease in cash used in operating
activities is primarily attributable to our decreased net loss.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
During the nine months ended February 29, 2020, we did not use any cash in
investing activities compared to $432,200 for the same period ended February 28,
2019. The decrease is attributable to investments made in intangible assets in
the prior period that was not necessary in the current period.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
For the nine months ended February 29, 2020, we did not use any cash in
financing activities. For the nine months ended February 28, 2019, net cash used
in financing activities was $4,965,000. In the comparative period, $35,000 was
received by way of a loan from our sole officer, director and principal
shareholder, and the Company repaid $5,000,000 on related party loans.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
As of February 29, 2020, we had available cash of $4,249,099, current
liabilities of $12,216,340 and had never generated any revenues. These
conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Unless and
until we begin to generate revenues and positive cash flow from our Platform or
Megopoly game, as to which there is no assurance, we expect that working capital
requirements will continue to be funded through cash on hand, related party
loans and/or further issuances of other securities. There is no assurance that
we will be able to meet our working capital requirement from these sources.
We have no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements. To date, we
have been wholly dependent upon our CEO and majority shareholder, Mr. Pei, and
his affiliated companies, to provide financing to us, generally in the form of
convertible loans. Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities
will result in dilution to our current shareholders. Further, such securities
might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock.
Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If
adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we
may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or
opportunities, and we might be unable to continue in business.
Material Commitments
As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we do not have any material
commitments.
Purchase of Significant Equipment
We do not have any agreements at this time, to purchase any significant
equipment during the next twelve months.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we do not have 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 that are material to investors.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States requires our management to make
assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported, including
the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if
any. We have identified certain accounting policies that are significant to the
preparation of our financial statements. These accounting policies are important
for an understanding of our financial condition and results of operations.
Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the
presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and require
management's subjective or complex judgment, often as a result of the need to
make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may
change in subsequent periods. Certain accounting estimates are particularly
sensitive because of their significance to financial statements and because of
the possibility that future events affecting the estimate may differ
significantly from management's current judgments.
While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in notes to
our consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, we
believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you
in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results and affect
the more significant judgments and estimates that we used in the preparation of
our financial statements.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company maintains our cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which
at times may exceed federally insured limits. Accounts are guaranteed by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000 under current
regulations. The Company had approximately $3,999,199 and $4,258,497 in excess
of FDIC insured limits at February 29, 2020 and May 31, 2019, respectively. The
Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.
Reclassifications
In the current period, the Company separately classified professional fees from
general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Statement of Operations.
For comparative purposes, amounts in the prior period have been reclassified to
conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no
effect on previously reported results of operations.
17
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Software Development Costs
The Company expenses software development costs, including costs to develop
software products or the software component of products to be sold, leased, or
marketed to external users, before technological feasibility is reached.
Technological feasibility is typically reached shortly before the release of
such products. Software development costs also include costs to develop software
to be used solely to meet internal needs and cloud-based applications used to
deliver our services. The Company capitalizes development costs related to these
software applications once the preliminary project stage is complete and it is
probable that the project will be completed, and the software will be used to
perform the function intended. Capitalization ends, and amortization begins when
the product is available for general release to customers.
