Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
The accompanying interim unaudited financial statements and footnotes of Blackboxstocks Inc. have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Rule 
10
-
01
of Regulation S-
X
of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do
not
include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods, but are
not
necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the full year ending
December 31, 2021.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10
-K for the year ended
December 31, 2020.
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in assumption of the continuation of the Company as a going concern, which is dependent upon the Company's ability to obtain sufficient financing or establish itself as a profitable business. At
March 31, 2021,
the Company had an accumulated deficit of
$7,172,263,
and for the years ended  
December 31, 2020
and
2019
the Company incurred net  losses of
$354,911
and
$2,983,438,
respectively. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note
6,
the Company executed a Loan Agreement with certain lenders (the “Lenders”) and FVP Servicing LLC, (“FVP”), as agent for the Lenders in connection with the issuance of a Note in the amount of
$1,000,000
bearing interest at
12%
per annum with an initial maturity of
November 12, 2022.
Simultaneously, with the execution of the Loan Agreement, the Company repaid an existing secured note payable in the amount of
$100,000
along with accrued interest, and certain outstanding trade payables in the amount of
$133,880.
In addition, the Company granted the Lender a security interest in substantially all of its assets. As a result of this financing and the cash flows from operations, the Company had a cash balance of
$1,114,468
at
March 31, 2021.
Management believes that this will be sufficient to fund its operations and service its debt for the next
twelve
months. In addition, management
may
continue to raise additional debt or equity capital in order to improve liquidity or finance more aggressive growth or development. There can be
no
assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional capital or on what terms.
 
The financial statements do
not
include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in operation.
 
Use of Estimates
- The Company's financial statement preparation requires that management make estimates and assumptions which affect the reporting of assets and liabilities and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in order to report these financial statements in conformity with GAAP.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Cash
- Cash includes all highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities at the date of purchase of
three
months or less.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
- During the
three
months ended
March 31, 2021
there were several new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB. Each of the other pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. Management does
not
believe the adoption of any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.
 
Earnings or (Loss) Per Share
- Basic earnings per share (or loss per share), is computed by dividing the earnings (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution of securities by including other potentially issuable shares of common stock, including shares issuable upon conversion of convertible securities or exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants, in the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
 
Revenue Recognition
-
Revenue is recognized from the sale of subscriptions for the use of the Blackbox System web application, on a monthly or annual basis. Revenue generally is recognized net of allowances for returns and any taxes collected from customers and subsequently remitted to governmental authorities. The performance obligation by the Company is in exchange for the monthly subscription fee, the subscriber is allowed access to the Blackbox System on the website for the calendar month. Revenue related to annual subscriptions is recognized each month with unearned subscriptions reflected as a current liability.
 
Reclassification
- Affiliate referral expenses totaling $
37,496
as of
March 31, 2020
have been reclassed from cost of operations to selling, general and administrative expenses on the statement of operations.
