1. BACKGROUND

Nature of Operations – Genesis Financial, Inc. (“Genesis” or “Company”) was incorporated in Washington State on January 24, 2002 and on January 26, 2016 it moved its corporate domicile to the State of Wyoming. The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary EPOINT Payment Corp. (“Epoint”) was incorporated as a C-Corp in the state of Delaware in May 2015. The Company’s headquarters are in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Epoint is in the business of providing a range of alternate financial products designed for cost-efficient delivery via a smart phone or other mobile device. Epoint intends to initiate financial services offerings with an integrated “Mobile First” enabled program targeting underbanked and unbanked consumers, initially in North America, which will include micro credit, mobile phone device financing programs, money transfers, prepaid debit cards, bill payments, mobile top up, check processing, insurance and travel.

Epoint intends to leverage its relationships and agreements with key technology and media participants, together with appropriate financial institutions and distribution collaborators, to offer target consumers a wide range of price leading and more convenient local and international financial services, including money transfer, bill payment, mobile top up, Point of Sale (POS) payments, instant micro loans, check processing, insurance and travel services, all of which are to be delivered via an advanced proprietary platform technology.

Reverse Merger with EPOINT Payment Corp. – On February 15, 2018, the Company and Epoint completed the transactions contemplated by the previously disclosed Capital Stock Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) entered into as of September 8, 2017, as subsequently amended. Under the Exchange Agreement, Genesis acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Epoint, following which Epoint became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Genesis. The transaction was structured as a tax-free reorganization and exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, Genesis issued to Epoint’s shareholders an aggregate of 8,231,536 shares of its common stock in exchange for all of their capital holdings in Epoint. At the closing, Genesis also issued to Epoint’s shareholders warrants to purchase up to an additional 845,000 shares of common stock in exchange for an equal number of Epoint common stock warrants. The warrants are exercisable through February 12, 2028 at a per share exercise price of $3.00.

On February 12, 2018, Epoint issued warrants to purchase 1,970,250 shares of common stock to certain partners, associates, and designees of Whitestone Investment Network, Inc., a mergers and acquisition advisory group which was instrumental in introducing the management of Epoint to Genesis, and in structuring the Exchange Agreement. At the closing of the Exchange Agreement on February 15, 2018, Genesis also issued to these entities warrants to purchase up to 1,970,250 shares of its common stock in exchange for an equal number of Epoint common stock warrants. The warrants are exercisable through February 12, 2023 at a per share exercise price of $3.00.

At the closing of the Exchange Agreement on February 15, 2018, noteholders of $250,000 in principal amount of convertible loans payable (described in Note 5) voluntarily elected to convert their loans into 100,000 shares of Genesis common stock at a conversion rate of $2.50 per share.

Prior to the closing, Genesis was engaged in the business of buying and selling seller financed real estate loans and originating commercial real estate loans and providing start-up funding (the “Prior Business”). In connection with the closings and as mandated by the terms of the Exchange Agreement, Genesis and the Coghlan Family Corporation (the “Coghlan Family Corporation”), an entity controlled by John R. Coghlan, one of the directors and the holder of the majority of the outstanding debt of Genesis prior to the closing, entered into an agreement with Genesis pursuant to which the Coghlan Family Corporation agreed, at a mutually agreeable date after the closings, to assume and otherwise discharge all of Genesis’ outstanding debt, except for a loan of $100,000 payable to Coghlan Family Corporation (the “CFC Loan”), in consideration of the transfer to it by Genesis of the assets related to the Prior Business (the “Purchase and Sale Agreement”). The CFC Loan bears interest at an annual rate of 6% and the maturity date was extended to May 15, 2019. Upon extension of the note in May 2018, Genesis issued to Coghlan Family Corporation 65,000 shares of Common Stock.

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification section 805, “Business Combinations”, Genesis has accounted for the Exchange Agreement transaction as a reverse business combination using the acquisition method. This determination is based on Epoint shareholders obtaining voting control as well as management and Board control of the combined entity. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities and the historical operations that are reflected in these consolidated financial statements are those of Epoint and are recorded at the historical cost basis of Epoint, and the assets and liabilities of Genesis at the merger date were recorded at their fair values.

For accounting purposes, Genesis is deemed to have issued 879,765 common shares to the legacy shareholders of Genesis. Using an estimated fair value of common stock on February 15, 2018 of $2.00 per share, the purchase price of the 879,765 shares held by the legacy shareholders of Genesis was approximately $1,759,500. The difference between the fair value of these shares and the recorded fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Genesis totaling $1,835,684 was allocated to Goodwill. The preliminary fair value estimates for the consideration paid and the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for our acquisition is based on preliminary calculations and valuations and our estimates and assumptions are subject to change as we obtain additional information for our estimates during the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). The primary areas of those preliminary estimates that were not yet finalized related to valuation of goodwill and fair value of common stock.

Acquisition of Fintech – Immediately following the closing of the Exchange Agreement, on February 15, 2018, Genesis and Fintech Holdings, LLC (“Fintech LLC”), an Oregon limited liability company, signed and closed a Membership Interest Exchange Agreement between Genesis and Fintech LLC (the “Fintech Exchange Agreement”; together with the Exchange Agreement, the “Exchange Agreements”) pursuant to which Genesis issued to the members of Fintech LLC an aggregate of 26,435,604 shares of Common Stock. Fintech Investments Inc., the wholly-owned subsidiary of Fintech LLC (“Fintech Investments”) and a company formerly owned and operated by Gary Larkin, the Executive Co-Chairman of Genesis, holds the intellectual property licenses of Epoint’s proprietary platform technologies. Given that the entities were under common control, all of the transactions performed by Fintech Investments were done at the direction of Epoint, and substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired is concentrated in a group of similar identifiable assets, management determined that the assets acquired do not represent a business. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of Fintech LLC and Fintech Investments have been recorded at their historical cost basis at the merger date, and are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Henceforth, all references to the “Company” shall mean and include Genesis Financial., Inc. and its subsidiaries, following the closing of the Exchange Agreements.

2. LIQUIDITY

Historically, the Company has funded its cash and liquidity needs through the issuance of equity, equity-linked or debt securities. The Company has incurred a net loss of $23,~~698~~952,~~365~~406 and has an accumulated deficit of $6061,~~399~~653,~~719~~760 as of and for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2018. The Company has been dependent on raising capital from debt and equity financings to meet its needs for cash flow used in operating activities. For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2018, the Company raised $~~785~~946,~~000~~090 from financing activities in order to meet cash flow requirements in operating activities. ~~In addition, as of June 30, 2018 there were outstanding notes in aggregate principal amount and accrued interest of $1,294,589 with past due maturity dates.~~ This situation creates uncertainties about the Company’s ability to execute its business plan, finance operations, and indicates substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year from the date these financial statements were issued.

At ~~June~~ September 30, 2018, the Company had ~~approximately~~ $~~0.1 million~~ 20,020 of cash on hand with a negative working capital of $23.83 million. The Company’s ability to meet its ongoing operating cash needs is dependent on generating positive ~~operating~~ cash flow, primarily through raising capital on an immediate basis, and ultimately generating revenue and controlling expenses. During the first quarter of 2018, the Company entered into an eWallet transaction processing services agreement, and began receiving payments that have been recorded as ~~deferred~~contract ~~revenue~~liability that will be recognized as revenue once control of these services are transferred to the customer. In addition, subsequent to ~~June~~September 30, 2018 and through ~~August 20~~November 19, 2018, the Company raised an additional $~~110~~14,~~000~~988 in cash through debt offerings (see Note 89, Subsequent Events). However, the Company’s current cash resources are not sufficient to support its operations as presently conducted, pay down maturing debt, or permit it to take advantage of business opportunities that may arise. At December 31, 2018 debt obligations totaling approximately $2.0 million mature and must be repaid. We currently do not have sufficient funds to repay those debt obligations and must secure additional equity or debt capital in order to repay those obligations or obtain additional extensions of maturity, of which no assurance can be provided that we can obtain the needed funding or maturity extension on commercially reasonable terms or at all. Management of the Company is continuing its efforts to secure funds through equity and/or debt instruments for its operations. Presently, the Company does not have any financing commitment from any person, and there can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to the Company on commercially acceptable terms or at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us, our ability to or support our business and to respond to business challenges will be significantly limited and we may need to further curtail or cease operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation - The Company’s accounting and financial reporting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (U.S. GAAP). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Genesis and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. All normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements have been included. Operating results for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2018 are not indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending ~~December~~ December 31, 2018 or for any other future period. These unaudited consolidated financial statements and the unaudited notes thereto ~~should~~ should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto of EPOINT Payment Corp. for the years ended ~~December~~ December 31, 2017 and 2016 included in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed with the Securities and Exchange ~~Commission~~ Commission (the “SEC”) on May 4, 2018 (our “8-K/A”).

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions which affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and other judgments which it thinks are reasonable.

Risks and Uncertainties - The Company’s future operations involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Factors that could materially affect future operating results include, but are not limited to, changes to laws and regulations, customer credit risk, continued access to capital and counterparty risk. To minimize counterparty risk, the Company maintains relationships with what management believes to be high-quality financial institutions for the purposes of maintaining cash balances and providing financing. The Company maintains levels of cash in bank deposit accounts that, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and it believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share - Basic earnings per share (EPS) are computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock warrants, convertible debt instruments or other common stock equivalents. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive. For the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~ September 30, 2018, outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate of 24,~~815~~365,250 shares of common stock, outstanding stock options to purchase 1,~~750~~900,000 shares of common stock, and 42,267 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of convertible debt were excluded from the computation of dilutive earnings per share because the inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. For ~~(none~~the ~~for~~three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, ~~periods)~~42,267 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of convertible debt were excluded from the computation of dilutive earnings per share because the inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Revenue Recognition – The Company expects to derive revenues primarily from providing a range of alternate financial products related to providing financial services to underbanked and unbanked individuals. These services are expected to include micro-credit, mobile phone financing, money transfers, prepaid debit cards, bill payments and related services. Revenues will be recognized when control of these services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those services.

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:

	●	Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer
	●	Identification of the performance obligations in the contract
	●	Determination of the transaction price
	●	Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
	●	Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly-liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Fair Value Measurements - U.S. GAAP defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements. U.S. GAAP permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and contains financial statement presentation and disclosure requirements for assets and liabilities for which the fair value option is elected. At ~~June~~September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, management has not elected to report any of the Company’s assets or liabilities at fair value under the “fair value option” provided by U.S. GAAP.

The hierarchy of fair value valuation techniques under U.S. GAAP provides for three levels: Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3, if applicable, generally would require significant management judgment. The three levels for categorizing assets and liabilities under U.S. GAAP’s fair value measurement requirements are as follows:

	Level 1:	Fair value of the asset or liability is determined using unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

	Level 2:	Fair value of the asset or liability is determined using inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the applicable asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar (as opposed to identical) assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

	Level 3:	Fair value of the asset or liability is determined using unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement and reflect management’s own assumptions regarding the applicable asset or liability.

None of the Company’s assets or liabilities were measured at fair value at ~~June~~September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. However, U.S. GAAP requires the disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments that are not measured at fair value. Financial instruments consist principally of accounts payable, accrued liabilities, notes payable, and convertible note payable. The estimated fair value of accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximates their carrying value due to the short period of time to their maturities. At ~~June~~September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company’s notes payable and convertible notes payable are at ~~fixed~~ fixed rates and due to their short-term nature the carrying value approximates fair value.

Technology and Equipment - Technology and equipment, including furniture, equipment, leasehold improvements, purchased custom software and internally developed software is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. The Company capitalizes expenditures or betterments that substantially increase asset lives, and charges ordinary repairs and maintenance to operations as incurred. The Company computes depreciation using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of three to five years. Estimated useful lives are periodically reviewed, and where appropriate, changes are made prospectively.

The Company capitalizes certain software development costs incurred in connection with its eWallet and Micro Line of Credit products. Costs incurred in the preliminary stages of development are expensed as incurred. Once a product has reached the application development stage, internal and external costs, if direct and incremental, are capitalized until the product is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalization ceases upon completion of all substantial testing. The Company also capitalizes costs related to specific upgrades and enhancements when it is probable the expenditures will result in additional functionality; that is, modifications that enable the software to perform tasks that it previously was incapable of performing. Maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

Goodwill - Goodwill was created at the time of purchase where the purchase price paid for Genesis exceeded the fair value of the tangible and identifiable intangible net assets acquired. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis on December 31st, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the reporting units might be impaired. The approach for the review of goodwill has two steps: identifying a potential impairment and measuring the amount of the impairment loss, if any. Factors that are considered important in determining whether an impairment of goodwill might exist include significant, continued underperformance compared to peers, significant changes in our business and products, material and ongoing negative industry or economic trends or other factors specific to each reporting unit being evaluated. Any changes in key assumptions about our business and our prospects, or changes in market conditions or other externalities, could result in an impairment charge. We use an income and market valuation hybrid approach, as it was considered to be the most appropriate method to isolate the estimated equity value of the Company. This valuation approach involved utilizing a forecasted future cash flow model discounted back at the estimated cost of equity as well as public company market comparables. Our projected cash flow model assumed revenue and operating expense growth over the five-year projected period. At ~~June~~September 30, 2018, no impairment loss was recognized.

Impairment of long-lived assets and long-lived assets to be disposed of - The Company accounts for long-lived assets, including technology and equipment, at amortized cost. Management reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If there is an indication of impairment, management would prepare an estimate of future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If these estimated cash flows were less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss would be recognized to write down the asset to its estimated fair value.

Debt Issuance Costs - Debt issuance costs are amortized over the term of the related debt. Net debt issuance costs were $41403,~~667~~ 234 and $11,806 at ~~June~~September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, and are netted against Loans Payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Income Taxes - The provision for income taxes is based on income and expenses as reported for financial statement purposes using the “asset and liability method” for accounting for deferred taxes. 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 reflected at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets or liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. At ~~June~~September 30, 2018 and ~~December~~ December 31, 2017, the Company established full valuation allowances against its net deferred tax assets.

Income tax positions that meet the “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold are measured at the largest amount of income tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with income tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above would be reflected as a liability for unrecognized income tax benefits in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized income tax benefits would be classified as additional income taxes in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. There were no unrecognized income tax benefits, nor any interest and penalties associated with unrecognized income tax benefits, accrued or expensed at and for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2018 and 2017.

The Company files federal income tax returns in the U.S. and various state income tax returns. The Company is no longer subject to examinations by the related tax authorities for the Company’s U.S. federal and state income tax returns for years prior to 2014.

Stock-Based Compensation - The Company recognizes as compensation expense all stock-based awards issued to employees and nonemployees. The compensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the related stock-based awards and is recognized over the service period of stock-based awards, which is generally the same as the vesting period. The fair value of warrants and options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, which estimates the fair value of each award on the date of grant based on a variety of assumptions including expected stock price volatility, expected terms of the awards, risk-free interest rate, and dividend rates, if applicable. Stock-based awards issued to ~~nonemployees~~officers, directors and non-employees are recorded at fair value on the measurement date and are subject to periodic market adjustments at the end of each reporting period and as the underlying stock-based awards vest. Stock-based compensation was $~~776~~953,~~397~~241 from issuing warrants and options to non-employees and $Nil for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and is included in Professional services expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements – In August 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows – Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments and in November 2016 issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. The new standards will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years, and amends the existing accounting standards for the statement of cash flows. The amendments provide guidance on the following nine cash flow issues: debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; settlement of zero-coupon or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing; contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies; distributions received from equity method investees; beneficial interests in securitization transactions; separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle; and restricted cash. The adoption on January 1, 2018 of ASU 2016-15 and ASU 2016-18 did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, which amends guidance on revenue recognition from contracts with customers. The standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most contract revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. In July 2015, FASB deferred by one year the effective dates of its new revenue recognition standard for public and nonpublic entities. In addition, in March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, which further clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations contained in ASU 2014-09. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, to clarify the implementation guidance on identifying performance obligations and licensing. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. The adoption on January 1, 2018 of ASU 2014-09 did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements as we did not have any contracts with customers prior to January 1, 2018.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) – Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ASU 2017-04 will simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Current guidance requires that companies compute the implied fair value of goodwill under Step 2 by performing procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities following the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. ASU 2017-04 will require companies to perform annual or interim goodwill impairment tests by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, and recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. However, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and will be applied prospectively. Early adoption of this standard is permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2017-04 on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This standard requires the recognition of a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases. This standard also requires more detailed disclosures to enable users of financial statements to understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and should be applied through a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, and early adoption is permitted. The Company expects to adopt this guidance on January 1, 2019. Although the Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the ASU on its consolidated financial statements, the Company currently believes the adoption of this guidance will be significant and the changes will be related to the recognition of new right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the Company'’s balance sheet for leased facilities.

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842). This guidance provides an additional (and optional) transition method whereby the new lease standard is applied at the adoption date and recognized as an adjustment to retained earnings. In addition, this ASU provides a practical expedient, by class of underlying asset, to not separate nonlease components from the associated lease and instead account for the lease as a single component if both the timing and pattern of transfer of the nonlease component(s) are the same, and if the lease would be classified as an operating lease. These amendments have the same effective date as ASU 2016-02.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) – Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which aligns the accounting for share-based payment awards issued to employees and nonemployees. Under ASU 2018-07, the existing employee guidance will apply to nonemployee share-based transactions (as long as the transaction is not effectively a form of financing), with the exception of specific guidance related to the attribution of compensation cost. The cost of nonemployee awards will continue to be recorded as if the grantor had paid cash for the goods or services. In addition, the contractual term will be able to be used in lieu of an expected term in the option-pricing model for nonemployee awards. The new standard is effective on January 1, 2019, and early adoption is permitted, including in interim periods, and should be applied to all new awards granted after the date of adoption. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact this ASU will have on our consolidated results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.

Warrants

As discussed in Note 1, at the closing of the Exchange Agreement, Genesis issued to Epoint’s shareholders warrants to purchase up to an additional 845,000 shares of common stock in exchange for an equal number of Epoint common stock warrants. The warrants are exercisable through February 12, 2028 at a per share exercise price of $3.00. Also at the closing of the Exchange Agreement, Genesis issued warrants to purchase up to 1,970,250 shares of its common stock in exchange for an equal number of Epoint common stock warrants. The warrants are exercisable through February 12, 2023 at a per share exercise price of $3.00. The estimated fair value of the warrants of $776,397 was expensed in full at issuance.

Conversion of Debt

As discussed in Note 1, at the closing of the Exchange Agreement on February 15, 2018, noteholders of $250,000 of convertible loans payable (described in Note 5) voluntarily elected to convert their loans into 100,000 shares of Genesis common stock at a conversion rate of $2.50 per share.

Purchase and Sale Agreement

As discussed in Note 1, in connection with the closings and as mandated by the terms of the Exchange Agreement, Genesis and the Coghlan Family Corporation, an entity controlled by John R. Coghlan, one of the directors and the holder of the majority of the outstanding debt of Genesis prior to the closings, entered into the Purchase and Sale Agreement with Genesis pursuant to which the Coghlan Family Corporation agreed, at a mutually agreeable date after the closings, to assume and otherwise discharge all of Genesis’ outstanding debt, except for the CFC Loan, in consideration of the transfer to it by Genesis of the assets related to the Prior Business.

The summary of the sale of assets and discharge of liabilities under the Purchase and Sale Agreement are as follows, and is not included in these consolidated financial statements as the transaction occurred in connection with the closing of the reverse merger with Epoint and amounts in these consolidated financial statements prior to the reverse merger relate to Epoint operations only:

The fair value of the 65,000 shares of common stock amounting to $130,000 was recorded as a debt issuance ~~costs~~cost ~~under~~to abe ~~loan~~amortized ~~extension~~over ~~agreement~~the revised term of the note payable.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company also issues, from time to time, options which are not issued under or subject to a formal option plan. At ~~June~~September 30, 2018, there were 1,~~750~~900,000 options outstanding that were not issued under a formal option plan.

A summary of all stock option activity at and for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2018 is presented below:

At September 30, 2018, there were 1,668,750 unvested options with a weighted average exercise price of $3.09. The unvested options will vest in accordance with the vesting schedule in each respective option agreement, which is two years from the grant date. The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and options exercisable at ~~June~~September 30, 2018 was $Nil. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, 231,250 options became vested.

At June 30, 2018, there were 1,750,000 unvested options with an aggregate grant date fair value of $1,398,250. The unvested options will vest over 8 quarters beginning July 2018.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to measure the grant-date fair value of stock options. The calculation includes several assumptions that require management’s judgment. The expected term of the options is calculated using the simplified method described in GAAP. The simplified method defines the expected term as the average of the contractual term and the vesting period. Estimated volatility is derived from volatility calculated using historical closing prices of common shares of similar entities whose share prices are publicly available for the expected term of the options. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury constant maturities in effect at the time of grant for the expected term of the options.

The following weighted average assumptions were used in the Black-Scholes valuation model for options granted during the ~~six~~ nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2018:

Risk-free interest rate	3.0201	%
Expected term (in years)	6.0
Dividend yield	-

For the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, total stock option expense related to stock options was $176,844 and $Nil, respectively. At September 30, 2018, the total compensation cost related to stock options not yet recognized is approximately $1,246,156, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.76 years.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto of our wholly-owned subsidiary EPOINT Payment Corp. for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 included in our Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 4, 2018 (the “8-K/A”) as well as the unaudited financial statements of Genesis Financial, Inc. included in this report. This section of the Quarterly Report includes a number of forward-looking statements within the meaning of the private securities litigation reform act of 1995, as amended that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements which speak only as of the date made, and except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause differences include, but are not limited to, customer acceptance risks for current and new products and services, reliance on external sources of financing, development risks for new products and brands, dependence on third party service providers, fluctuations in market demand and customer preferences, changes in government regulations, as well as general conditions of the payment and financial services industries, and other “Risk Factors” discussed in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on February 22, 2018 (our “8-K”), similar discussions in subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, including this Form 10-Q, as applicable, and those contained from time to time in our other filings with the SEC.

Overview of the Business of the Company

Genesis Financial, Inc., through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Epoint Payment Corp., is engaged in providing a range of diverse alternate financial products designed for cost-efficient delivery via a smart phone or other mobile device. Epoint intends to initiate financial services with an integrated “Mobile First” enabled program targeting underbanked and unbanked consumers, initially in North America, which will include micro credit, mobile phone device financing programs, money transfers, prepaid debit cards, bill payments, mobile top up, check processing, insurance and travel.

For most people, having a bank account is as natural as breathing. But according to the 2016 FDIC National Survey of Unbanked and Underbanked Households, 15.6 million adults are completely unbanked and 27% of U.S. households, or approximately 68 million consumers, are underbanked, which means they have no credit history or only nonbank credit. These unbanked and underbanked consumers tend to rely solely upon alternate financial services or in many instances are forced supplement their bank relationship with alternative financial services. In both categories, consumers often turn to non-bank financial products that many consumer advocates describe as predatory at worst and insufficient at best. In addition to those consumers who have traditionally fallen into the under-banked and unbanked category, there is an emerging segment of consumers, including millennials, who are drawn to less formal banking preferring to manage their finances through prepaid debit cards and/or more recently reloadable mobile wallets.

We intend to leverage our relationships and agreements with key technology and media participants, together with appropriate financial institutions and distribution partners, to offer target customers a wide range of price leading and more convenient local and international financial services, including money transfer, bill payment, mobile top up, Point of Sale (POS) payments, instant micro loans, check processing, insurance and travel services, all of which are to be delivered via an advanced proprietary platform technology.

We plan to initiate our service offering with products designed to appeal to key underbanked consumer market segments including ex-patriate Spanish speaking consumers in the United States.

Prior to the closing, Genesis was engaged in the business of buying and selling seller financed real estate loans and originating commercial real estate loans and providing start-up funding. Following the closing of the reverse acquisition between Genesis Financial, Inc. and Epoint Payment Corp., pursuant to which Epoint became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Genesis, these operations have been discontinued.

Reverse Merger

On February 15, 2018, Genesis Financial and Epoint completed the transactions contemplated under the Exchange Agreement where Genesis acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Epoint, following which Epoint became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Genesis. Immediately following the closing of the Exchange Agreement, on February 15, 2018, Genesis and Fintech Holdings, LLC (“Fintech LLC”), an Oregon limited liability company, signed and closed a Membership Interest Exchange Agreement between Genesis and Fintech LLC (the “Fintech Exchange Agreement”).

Following the closings, each of Epoint and Fintech LLC became wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. Below is a diagram of the current corporate structure of the Company.

The increase in our net loss is primarily attributable to our increased operating expenses related to completion of the Exchange Agreement, Fintech Exchange Agreement and the SmartPay MIPA, interest expense on notes payable, stock-based compensation expense from the issuance of warrants and options, and the loss of deposits on planned acquisition of SmartPay Leasing, LLC.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary capital requirements are for cash used in operating activities. Funds for such purposes have historically been generated from short-term credit in the form of extended payment terms from suppliers, convertible debt and equity financings.

Historically, we have funded our cash and liquidity needs through the issuance of equity, equity-linked or debt securities. We incurred a net loss of $23,~~698~~952,~~365~~406 and have an accumulated deficit of $6061,~~399~~653,~~719~~760 as of and for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~ September 30, 2018. To date, we have depended on raising capital from debt and equity financings to meet our needs for cash flow used in operating activities. For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2018, we raised $~~785~~946,~~000~~090 from financing activities to meet cash flow used in operating activities. In ~~addition, as of June 30, 2018 there were outstanding notes in aggregate principal amount and accrued interest of $1,294,589 with past due maturity dates.~~ This situation creates uncertainties relating to our ability to execute our business plan, ~~finance~~ finance operations, and indicates substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year from the date these financial statements were issued.

At ~~June~~ September 30, 2018, ~~Genesis~~we had ~~approximately~~ $~~0.1~~20,020 ~~million~~ of cash on hand with a negative working capital of $23.83 million. Our ability to meet ongoing operating cash needs is dependent on raising additional working capital on an immediate basis and ultimately generating positive ~~operating~~ cash flow, primarily through generating revenue and controlling expenses. During the first quarter of 2018, ~~the~~ ~~Company~~we entered into an eWallet transaction processing services agreement, and began deferring revenue that will be recognized as revenue once control of these services is transferred to the customer. In addition, subsequent to ~~June~~September 30, 2018 and through ~~August~~November 2019, 2018, ~~the~~we ~~Company~~ raised an additional $~~110~~14,~~000~~988 in cash through debt offerings ~~(see Note 8, Subsequent Events)~~.

We need to raise additional funds on an immediate basis in order to be able to satisfy our cash requirements, pay down maturing debt and ~~fulfill~~maintain ~~our~~operations. ~~business~~At December 31, 2018 debt obligations totaling approximately $2.0 million mature and must be repaid. ~~plan~~We ~~over~~currently do not have sufficient funds to repay those debt obligations and must secure additional equity or debt capital in order to repay those obligations or obtain additional extensions of maturity, of which no assurance can be provided that we can obtain the ~~next~~needed ~~twelve~~funding ~~months~~or maturity extension on commercially reasonable terms or at all. We have been actively seeking additional capital. At the present time, we have no commitments for financing and no assurance can be given that we will be able to raise the needed capital on commercially acceptable terms or at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us, our ability to or support our business and to respond to business challenges will be significantly limited and we may need to further curtail or cease operations.

Our cash flow related information for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2018 and 2017 are as follows:

Operating Activities

In the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2018, the net loss plus non-cash adjustments was approximately $12.86 million compared to ~~using~~ $0.2 4 million during the same period in 2017. The increase in cash usage can be primarily attributed to the larger net loss ~~incurred~~ incurred in 2018 as compared to 2017. Non-cash adjustments in the aggregate were about $01.93 million higher in 2018. In addition, there was a $0.21 million increase in prepaid expenses and other assets and a $01.74 million increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in 2018. In 2017, there was no significant change in working capital items.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities consists primarily of $200,000 of deposits on the planned acquisition of SmartPay Leasing, LLC paid in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2018, which agreement has as of July 15, 2018 been terminated. In addition, capital expenditures for the purchases of technology and equipment were $82120,~~222~~303 and $Nil in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Cash acquired in acquisitions was $40,353 in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2018.

Financing Activities

During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2018, operating losses and working capital needs discussed above were met by raising cash in debt financing of $0.89 million.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon its consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These items are monitored and analyzed by management for changes in facts and circumstances, and material changes in these estimates could occur in the future. The more judgmental estimates are summarized below. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from the Company’s estimates if past experience or other assumptions do not turn out to be substantially accurate.

Revenue Recognition

We expect to derive revenues primarily from providing a range of alternate financial products related to providing financial services to underbanked and unbanked individuals. These services are expected to include micro-credit, mobile phone financing, money transfers, prepaid debit cards, bill payments and related services. Revenues will be recognized when control of these services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those services.

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:

	●	Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer
	●	Identification of the performance obligations in the contract
	●	Determination of the transaction price
	●	Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
	●	Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation

Technology and Equipment

Technology and equipment, including furniture, equipment, leasehold improvements, purchased custom software and internally developed software is carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. We capitalize expenditures or betterments that substantially increase asset lives, and charges ordinary repairs and maintenance to operations as incurred. We compute depreciation using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of three to five years. Estimated useful lives are periodically reviewed, and where appropriate, changes are made prospectively.

We capitalize certain software development costs incurred in connection with its eWallet and Micro Line of Credit products. Costs incurred in the preliminary stages of development are expensed as incurred. Once a product has reached the application development stage, internal and external costs, if direct and incremental, are capitalized until the product is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalization ceases upon completion of all substantial testing. We also capitalize costs related to specific upgrades and enhancements when it is probable the expenditures will result in additional functionality; that is, modifications that enable the software to perform tasks that it previously was incapable of performing. Maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

Goodwill

Goodwill was created at the time of purchase where the purchase price paid for Genesis exceeded the fair value of the tangible and identifiable intangible net assets acquired. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis on December 31st, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the reporting units might be impaired. The approach for the review of goodwill has two steps: identifying a potential impairment and measuring the amount of the impairment loss, if any. Factors that are considered important in determining whether an impairment of goodwill might exist include significant, continued underperformance compared to peers, significant changes in our business and products, material and ongoing negative industry or economic trends or other factors specific to each reporting unit being evaluated. Any changes in key assumptions about our business and our prospects, or changes in market conditions or other externalities, could result in an impairment charge. We use an income and market valuation hybrid approach, as it was considered to be the most appropriate method to isolate the estimated equity value of the Company. This valuation approach involved utilizing a forecasted future cash flow model discounted back at the estimated cost of equity as well as public company market comparables. Our projected cash flow model assumed revenue and operating expense growth over the five-year projected period. At ~~June~~September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, no impairment loss was recognized.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes as compensation expense all stock-based awards issued to employees and nonemployees. The compensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the related stock-based awards and is recognized over the service period of stock-based awards, which is generally the same as the vesting period. The fair value of warrants and options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, which estimates the fair value of each award on the date of grant based on a variety of assumptions including expected stock price volatility, expected terms of the awards, risk-free interest rate, and dividend rates, if applicable. Stock-based awards issued to nonemployees are recorded at fair value on the measurement date and are subject to periodic market adjustments at the end of each reporting period and as the underlying stock-based awards vest.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no significant 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.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows – Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments and in November 2016 issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. The new standards will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years, and amends the existing accounting standards for the statement of cash flows. The amendments provide guidance on the following nine cash flow issues: debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; settlement of zero-coupon or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing; contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies; distributions received from equity method investees; beneficial interests in securitization transactions; separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle; and restricted cash. The adoption on January 1, 2018 of ASU 2016-15 and ASU 2016-18 did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) – Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ASU 2017-04 will simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Current guidance requires that companies compute the implied fair value of goodwill under Step 2 by performing procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities following the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. ASU 2017-04 will require companies to perform annual or interim goodwill impairment tests by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, and recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. However, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and will be applied prospectively. Early adoption of this standard is permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2017-04 on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This standard requires the recognition of a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases. This standard also requires more detailed disclosures to enable users of financial statements to understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and should be applied through a modified ~~retrospective~~ retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period ~~presented~~ presented in the financial statements, and early adoption is permitted. The Company expects to adopt this guidance on January 1, 2019. Although the Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the ASU on its consolidated financial statements, the Company currently believes the adoption of this guidance will be significant and the changes will be related to the recognition of new right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the Company'’s balance sheet for leased facilities.

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

In connection with the preparation of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out by our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”)) as of ~~June~~September 30, 2018. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief ~~Executive~~ Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In performing the ~~assessment~~ assessment for the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2018, our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

Our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, has evaluated any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2018, and has concluded that there was no change that occurred during the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2018 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
