BUSINESS.

Unless otherwise stated or the context requires otherwise, references in this annual report on Form 10-K to “Digital Locations,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to Digital Locations, Inc.

Overview

To help connect a world of more than 8 billion people, the Company is developing a new technology that will enable high-speed Internet service to be delivered from satellites directly to smartphones. We aim to redesign the link technology between satellites and smartphones, which includes novel antenna designs, new integrated circuits, and innovative frequency management to support indoor and outdoor data connection.

On June 6, 2023, the Company engaged Florida International University (FIU) to perform the research necessary to develop this technology. Successful development and implementation of this technology will allow next generation smartphones, anywhere in the world, to access high-speed Internet service and benefit from remote learning, health care, government services, telework, participation in public affairs and various sources of entertainment.

In a digitally divided world of “haves and have nots”, high Speed Internet is usually available only in densely populated areas of the world. Much of the world is still underserved with terrestrial wireless phone and data connections. Connecting satellites directly with smartphones to receive high speed internet service is technically very challenging but represents an extraordinary business opportunity.

FIU has assembled a team of people with the background, experience and talent to perform such research. Located in Miami, the University is one of the most respected in the communications field and has an impressive facility capable of designing the tools necessary to make this research viable.

While this research is under way, there are no guarantees that it will achieve anything of commercial value or patentable concepts. Every effort is being made to develop technology, circuits, antenna designs and frequency compatibility and the Company is realistic about the time, money and effort necessary for a breakthrough.

Previously, the Company was engaged in the business of maintaining its portfolio of acquired small cell sites to help meet the then-expected demand of rapidly growing 5G networks. We currently receive revenue from previously developed sites. We are no longer adding additional locations to this business nor are we seeking more sites.

To meet that objective, on January 7, 2021, through our wholly owned subsidiary SmallCellSite Inc. (“SCS”), we closed on the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of SmallCellSite.com, LLC (“SCS LLC”), a source of more than 80,000 cell sites offered by property owners for use by wireless network operators. The business acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase and the accounts of SCS are consolidated with those of the Company.

On June 29, 2021, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary SCS, entered into a Master Asset Marketing and Agency Agreement (the “Marketing Agreement”) with Smartify Media (“Smartify”) to add Smartify’s locations to the Company’s small cell database. Smartify turns any storefront or physical location into a (MXP) Media Experience Platform for property owners which could create recurring revenue and media value from programmatic and local media channels.

According to the terms of the Marketing Agreement, which automatically renewed for one-year terms unless terminated by either party, SCS agreed to provide marketing services and management of the co-location and utilization of equipment to operators (such as wireless service providers, internet services providers and telecommunications operators) on Smartify’s existing assets. Smartify and SCS shall share all revenue generated from operators with 70% of revenue to Smartify and 30% of revenue to SCS.

The Company and Smartify agreed to cancel and terminate this Marketing Agreement as of November 9, 2023, and the Company has no plans to pursue additional business opportunities in the space, focusing its efforts on “Satenna™” its project of enabling high-speed Internet service to be delivered from satellites directly to smartphones.

Market Opportunity

High-speed Internet (also known as broadband Internet) means access to education, healthcare, jobs, entertainment, and equal participation in the modern economy. However, broadband is only available in densely populated areas around the world. The rest of the world is still waiting.

The global broadband market is forecast to double within the decade. According to Grand View Research, the global broadband market was valued at $419 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow to $875 billion by 2030. This tremendous growth is driven by the continual digital transformation of virtually all industries such as retail, healthcare, government, entertainment, and many more. Wireless technology holds great potential, due to its relative ease of deployment, in accelerating the global digital revolution across many verticals through productivity enhancements and economic reductions.

Satellite broadband Internet has been around for decades. However, the service is slow, expensive, data limited, and requires large receiver dishes mounted on fixed locations. These challenges are due to the inherent limits of older generation, gigantic and expensive satellites high in geostationary Earth orbit (“GEO”), or even medium Earth orbit (“MEO”).

Thanks to a new generation of visionary space companies such as SpaceX (Elon Musk) and Blue Origin (Jeff Bezos), the cost of launching satellites into space has come down dramatically thjrough through reusable rocket technology and more frequent space missions. As a result, it is now possible to develop small, low-cost satellites that are in low Earth orbit (“LEO”). When the satellites are closer to Earth, they can transmit data at faster speeds. However, it is still very expensive and needs special large receiver dishes mounted on fixed locations.

Competition

The Company competes in a market with much larger companies that have substantial business operations and financial resources.

Cellular network operators include AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile. Satellite communications systems operators include SpaceX (Starlink), Blue Origin, Viasat, Intelsat, EchoStar (Hughs Network), Inmarsat, and Globalstar.

Intellectual Property

The Company previously acquired proprietary web-based software which provides a system and method for identifying wireless communication assets. A provisional patent application for this technology was filed on May 31, 2017, and we were notified on or about January 11, 2021, by the United States Patent and Trademark Office that the patent will be granted.

Under the terms of the research agreement with FIU, the Company has a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the intellectual property associated with the development project, as well as the right to negotiate an exclusive license.

Government Regulation

Digital Locations generally is subject to all of the governmental regulations that regulate businesses generally such as compliance with regulatory requirements of federal, state, and local agencies and authorities, including regulations concerning the environment, permits for certain activities, workplace safety, labor relations, employee rights, and government taxes. The adoption of any additional laws or regulations may decrease the growth of our business, decrease the demand for services and increase our cost of doing business. Changes in tax laws also could have a significant adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition. As we develop and market our new satellite to smartphone technology, we may be subject to additional regulations imposed by the FCC.

Corporate History

Digital Locations, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on August 25, 2006 as Zingerang, Inc. On April 2, 2007, the Company changed its name to Carbon Sciences, Inc. and on September 14, 2017, the Company changed its name to Digital Locations, Inc.

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY

We are in the early stages of development and have limited operating history on which you can base an investment decision.

We were formed in August 2006, but have changed our business focus. We have generated limited revenues, have no real operating history upon which you can evaluate our business strategy or future prospects, and have negative working capital. As a result, our auditor issued an opinion in connection with our December 31, 2022 financial statements, which expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern unless we obtain additional financing.

Our ability to obtain additional financing and generate revenue will depend on whether we can successfully execute our new operational plan, to enable high-speed Internet service to be delivered from satellites directly to smartphones. We expect to continue to incur losses in the short term. Additionally, we may encounter many expenses, delays, problems, and difficulties that we have not anticipated and for which we have not planned. There can be no assurance that at this time we will successfully complete the research to enable this technology, achieve the result of delivering the high-speed Internet access as intended, or that we will have adequate working capital to fund our operations or meet our obligations as they become due.

Our proposed operations are subject to all of the risks inherent in the initial expenses, challenges, complications, and delays frequently encountered in connection with the formation of any new business. Investors should evaluate an investment in our company in light of the problems and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies attempting to develop markets for new products, services, and technologies. Despite best efforts, we may never overcome these obstacles to achieve financial success. Our business is speculative and dependent upon the implementation of our business plan, as well the completion of the research by Florida International University, and the development and implementation of the technology. There can be no assurance that our efforts will be successful or result in revenue or profit. There is no assurance that we will earn significant revenues or that our investors will not lose their entire investment.

If we are unable to effectively manage the transition from a development stage company to an operating company, our financial results will be negatively affected.

For the period from our inception, August 25, 2006, through December 31, 2023, we incurred an aggregate net loss, and had an accumulated deficit, of $54,887,744. For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, we incurred operating losses of $3,934,387 and $3,635,616, respectively. We reported net loss of $4,723,194 for the year ended December 31, 2023, resulting primarily from our operating losses and interest expense. Our operating losses are expected to continue to increase for at least the next 48 months as we commence full-scale development of our new business plan, if feasible. We believe we will require significant funding to make this transition if full-scale development is commercially justified. If we do make such transition, we expect our business to grow significantly in size and complexity. This growth is expected to place significant additional demands on our management, systems, internal controls, and financial and operational resources. As a result, we will need to expend additional funds to hire additional qualified personnel, retain professionals to assist in developing appropriate control systems, and expand our operating infrastructures. Our inability to secure additional resources, as and when needed, or manage our growth effectively, if and when it occurs, would significantly hinder our transition to an operating company, as well as diminish our prospects of generating revenues and, ultimately, achieving profitability.

We are now embarking on a new and unproven segment of our business, working to enable high-speed Internet access to be delivered from satellites directly to smartphones. There is a risk that we will be unable to compete with large, medium, and small competitors that are in (or may enter) the industry with substantially larger resources and management experience than us.

The evolving high-speed Internet market in which we expect to enter is intensely competitive requiring sophisticated technology and constant innovation, both in the development and execution of our business financial model and the quality of our intellectual property. There is no assurance that we will successfully compete to gain and retain customers and meet their requirements. Our current management has little prior experience in conducting this business.

Our technology that will enable high-speed Internet service to be delivered from satellites directly to smartphones is in early stages of development and might never become commercially viable. We have never generated any revenue from product sales and may never be profitable.

We are very early in our development efforts and only recently have commenced any significant research, with respect to our intended technology. We currently generate no revenue and we may never be able to develop our technology or a marketable product. Our ability to generate revenues, which we do not expect will occur for several years, if ever, may depend on obtaining regulatory approvals for, and successfully commercializing our technology or product candidates, either alone or in collaboration with others, and we cannot guarantee that we will ever obtain regulatory approval for our technology or any of our product candidates.

Our business is subject to government regulation.

Aspects of our business are subject to and will be designed to comply with the regulations of the FCC. A change in those regulations may have a material adverse effect on our operating results, financial condition, and business prospects and performance. We are also subject to regulations applicable to businesses generally, including without limitation those governing employment, construction, permit requirements, the environment, and health and safety, those governing the telecommunications industry, and the FCC. The adoption of any additional laws or regulations may decrease the growth of our business, decrease the demand for services and increase our cost of doing business. Changes in tax laws also could have a significant adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition.

As we develop and implement our business, we may be subject to additional and unexpected regulations, which could increase our costs or otherwise harm our business.

As we develop and implement the technology that enables high speed Internet delivery by satellites directly to smartphones, we may become subject to additional laws and regulations, which could create unexpected liabilities for us, cause us to incur additional costs or restrict our operations. From time to time, we may be notified of or otherwise become aware of additional laws and regulations that governmental organizations or others may claim should be applicable to our business. Our failure to anticipate the application of these laws and regulations accurately, or other failure to comply, could create liability for us, result in adverse publicity, or cause us to alter our business practices, which could cause our net revenues to decrease, our costs to increase, or our business otherwise to be harmed.

Our ability to protect our intellectual property is uncertain.

As a result of the APA, we acquired proprietary web-based software which provides a system and method for identifying wireless communication assets. A provisional patent application for this technology was filed on May 31, 2017 and we were notified on or about January 11, 2021 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office that the patent will be granted. We cannot assure that this patent or any other patent that may be granted to us, if any, in the future will be enforceable. We will have limited resources to fight any infringements on our proprietary rights and if we are unable to protect our proprietary rights or if such rights infringe on the rights of others, our business will be materially adversely affected.

The current credit and financial market conditions may exacerbate certain risks affecting our business.

Due to the continued disruption in the financial markets arising from the global recession and the slow pace of economic recovery, many of our potential customers may be unable to access capital necessary to lease our cell towners once developed or acquired. Many are operating under austerity budgets that make it significantly more difficult to take risks. As a result, we may experience increased difficulties in convincing customers to lease our cell towers once developed or acquired.

The future impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on companies is evolving and we are currently unable to assess with certainty the broad effects of Covid-19 on our business.

The future impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on companies continues to evolve and we are currently unable to assess with certainty the broad effects of Covid-19 on our business. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had no material assets that would be subject to impairment or change in valuation due to Covid-19. However, as of December 31, 2023, the reported values of the Company’s material convertible debt and derivative liabilities are based on multiple factors, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements and probabilities of certain outcomes based on management projections. We believe these inputs will be subject to even more significant changes due to the impact on capital markets of Covid-19, and the future estimated fair value of these liabilities may fluctuate materially from period to period.

Without reliable sources of revenue, we are currently dependent on debt or equity financing to fund our operations and execute our business plan. We believe that the impact on capital markets of Covid-19 may make it more costly and more difficult for us to access these sources of funding.

We do not maintain theft or casualty insurance, and only maintain modest liability and property insurance coverage and therefore we could incur losses as a result of an uninsured loss.

We cannot assure that we will not incur uninsured liabilities and losses as a result of the conduct of our business. Any such uninsured or insured loss or liability could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

If we lose key employees and consultants or are unable to attract or retain qualified personnel, our business could suffer.

Our success is highly dependent on our ability to attract and retain qualified management personnel. Competition for these qualified personnel is intense. We are highly dependent on our management and key consultants who have been critical to the development of our business. The loss of the services of key employees and key consultants could have a material adverse effect on our operations. We do have employment or consulting agreements with key individuals. However, there can be no assurance that any employees or consultants will remain associated with us. The efforts of key employees and consultants will be critical to us as we continue to develop our technology and as we attempt to transition from a development stage company to a company with commercialized products and services. If we were to lose key employees or consultants, we may experience difficulties in competing effectively, developing our technology and implementing our business strategies.

Management cannot guarantee that its relationship with the Company does not create conflicts of interest.

The relationship of management and its affiliates to the Company could create conflicts of interest. While management has a fiduciary duty to the Company, it also determines its compensation from the Company. Management’s compensation from the Company has not been determined pursuant to arm’s-length negotiation.

We may be subject to liabilities that are not readily identifiable at this time.

The Company may have liabilities to affiliated or unaffiliated lenders. These liabilities would represent fixed costs we would be required to pay, regardless of the level of business or profitability experienced by the Company. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to pay all of its liabilities. Furthermore, the Company is always subject to the risk of litigation from customers, suppliers, employees, and others. Litigation can cause the Company to incur substantial expenses and, if cases are lost, judgments, and awards can add to the Company’s costs.

In the course of business, the Company may incur expenses beyond what was anticipated.

Unanticipated costs may force the Company to obtain additional capital or financing from other sources or may cause the Company to lose its entire investment in the Company if it is unable to obtain the additional funds necessary to implement its business plan. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient capital to implement its business plan successfully. If a greater investment is required in the business because of cost overruns, the probability of earning a profit or a return of shareholder investment in the Company is diminished.

The Company will rely on management to execute the business plan and manage the Company’s affairs.

Under applicable state corporate law and the By-Laws of the Company, the officers and directors of the Company have the power and authority to manage all aspects of the Company’s business. Shareholders must be willing to entrust all aspects of the Company’s business to its directors and executive officers.

There is no assurance the Company will always have adequate capital to conduct its business.

The Company will have limited capital available to it. If the Company’s entire original capital is fully expended and additional costs cannot be funded from borrowings or capital from other sources, then the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and business performance would be materially adversely affected.

The Company is required to indemnify its directors and officers.

The Company’s By-Laws provide that the Company will indemnify its officers and directors to the maximum extent permitted by Nevada law. If the Company were called upon to indemnify an officer or director, then the portion of its assets expended for such purpose would reduce the amount otherwise available for the Company’s business.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK

We may, in the future, issue additional common shares, which would reduce investors’ percent of ownership and may dilute our share value.

Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 2,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which 733,766,705 shares are issued and outstanding as of March 20, 2024. The future issuance of common stock may result in substantial dilution in the percentage of our common stock held by our then-existing shareholders. We may value any common stock issued in the future on an arbitrary basis. The issuance of common stock for future services or acquisitions or other corporate actions may have the effect of diluting the value of the shares held by our investors and might have an adverse effect on any trading market for our common stock.

Our Board of Directors may issue and fix the terms of shares of our preferred stock without stockholder approval, which could adversely affect the voting power of holders of our common stock or any change in control of our Company.

Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 20,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, with such designation rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors is empowered, without shareholder approval, to issue shares of preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of our common stock. In the event of such issuances, the preferred stock could be used, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of our company.

Series B Preferred Stock issued to an investor with certain preferential rights, upon conversion thereof, will cause significant dilution to existing stockholders.

There are 14,241 shares of Series B non-voting, convertible preferred stock, (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) issued and outstanding. Each one share of Series B Preferred Stock has as a stated value of $100 per share and is convertible, at the option of the holder, into Common Stock of the Company at any time, at the election of the holder, at a rate of $0.0015 per share; provided, however, that such conversion may only occur at a time when the Company has sufficient authorized shares of common stock under its articles of incorporation to satisfy such conversion. The common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock may represent overhang that may also adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Overhang occurs when there is a greater supply of a company’s stock in the market than there is demand for that stock. When this happens the price of the Company’s stock will decrease, and any additional shares which stockholders attempt to sell in the market will only further decrease the share price. In the event of such overhang, the Series B Preferred stockholders will have an incentive to sell their common stock as quickly as possible. If the share volume of our common stock cannot absorb the discounted shares, then the value of our common stock will likely decrease. The Stock Purchase Agreement for the Series B Preferred Stock contains an issuance limitation of 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock at the time of conversion, but that limitation can be waived by the holder with sixty-one days’ notice. On a fully-diluted basis, without factoring in the 4.99% limitation, the Series B Preferred Stock may be converted into 949,400,000 shares of common stock, an amount that would cause significant dilution to the issued and outstanding shares of the Company.

Series B Preferred Stock issued to an investor with certain preferential rights, upon conversion thereof, will cause significant dilution to existing stockholders.

Bountiful Capital, LLC currently owns 45,000 shares of Series E non-voting, convertible preferred stock, (the “Series E Preferred Stock”). Each one share of Series E Preferred Stock has as a stated value of $100 per share and is convertible, at the option of the holder, into Common Stock of the Company at any time, at the election of the holder, at a rate of $0.0015 per share; provided, however, that such conversion may only occur at a time when the Company has sufficient authorized shares of common stock under its articles of incorporation to satisfy such conversion. The common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock may represent overhang that may also adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Overhang occurs when there is a greater supply of a company’s stock in the market than there is demand for that stock. When this happens the price of the Company’s stock will decrease, and any additional shares which stockholders attempt to sell in the market will only further decrease the share price. In the event of such overhang, the Series E Preferred Stock will have an incentive to sell their common stock as quickly as possible. If the share volume of our common stock cannot absorb the discounted shares, then the value of our common stock will likely decrease. The Stock Purchase Agreement for the Series E Preferred Stock contains an issuance limitation of 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock at the time of conversion, but that limitation can be waived by the holder with sixty-one days’ notice. On a fully-diluted basis, without factoring in the 4.99% limitation, the Series E Preferred Stock may be converted into 3,000,000,000 shares of common stock, an amount that would cause significant dilution to the issued and outstanding shares of the Company.

We have issued stock options to individuals that, if exercised, will cause significant dilution to existing shareholders.

We have issued to various individuals stock options to purchase 904,177,778 shares of our common stock. The weighted average exercise prices for these stock options is $0.004, although the exact exercise prices vary by grant. If the option holders were to choose to exercise their stock options, a total of up to 904,177,778 would be issued, an amount that would cause significant dilution to the issued and outstanding shares of the Company.

We have outstanding convertible promissory notes and substantial dilution could occur if the lenders choose to convert the promissory note.

We have issued several convertible promissory notes that are convertible into shares based on a discount to the market price of our common stock. Each convertible promissory note is unique and the convertible promissory notes are further summarized in Notes 3, 4 and 5 to the financial statements included with this SEC filing.

Since the conversion rate results in the issuance of shares at a discounted rate, significant dilution of our common stock could occur if the lenders choose to convert the debt into common stock. A conversion of this convertible debt into Common Stock could cause our stockholders to experience additional dilution, and any such issuances may result in downward pressure on the price of our common stock. The issuance of additional shares of common stock in the future via conversion of debt will reduce the proportionate ownership and voting power of then current stockholders. On a fully-diluted basis, without factoring in the 4.99% beneficial ownership limitations, as of December 31, 2023 the existing convertible promissory notes could have been converted into 2,293,933,406 shares of common stock, an amount that would have caused a significant dilution to the issued and outstanding shares of the Company.

Our common shares are subject to the “Penny Stock” rules of the SEC, and the trading market in our securities will likely be limited, which makes transactions in our stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our stock.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:

	●	That a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks; and
	●	The broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quality of the penny stock to be purchased.

In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:

	●	Obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and
	●	Make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:

	●	Sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and
	●	That the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.

Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.

Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

There is a very limited market for our securities. While our common stock is on the OTC Pink Market, there has been negligible trading volume. There is no guarantee that an active trading market will develop in our securities and if a trading market does not develop, purchasers of our securities may have difficulty selling their shares.

There is currently no established public trading market for our securities, and an active trading market in our securities may not develop, or, if developed, may not be sustained. Accordingly, investors may have a difficult time selling their shares.

Our common stock is quoted through the OTC Pink Market, which may have an unfavorable impact on our stock price and liquidity.

The Company’s common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink Market, which is a significantly more limited market than the New York Stock Exchange or NASDAQ. The trading volume may be limited by the fact that many major institutional investment funds, including mutual funds, follow a policy of not investing in OTC Pink Market stocks and certain major brokerage firms restrict their brokers from recommending OTC Pink Market stocks because they are considered speculative and volatile.

The trading volume of the Company’s common stock has been and may continue to be limited and sporadic. As a result, the quoted price for the Company’s common stock on the OTC Pink Market may not necessarily be a reliable indicator of its fair market value.

Additionally, the securities of small capitalization companies may trade less frequently and in more limited volume than those of more established companies. The market for small capitalization companies is generally volatile, with wide price fluctuations not necessarily related to the operating performance of such companies.

Trading on the OTC Pink Market may be volatile and sporadic, which could depress the market price of our common stock and make it difficult for our stockholders to resell their shares.

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink Market. Trading in stock quoted on the OTC Pink Market is often thin and characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices due to many factors that may have little to do with our operations or business prospects. This volatility could depress the market price of our common stock for reasons unrelated to operating performance. Moreover, the OTC Pink Market is not a stock exchange, and trading of securities on the OTC Pink Market is often more sporadic than the trading of securities listed on a quotation system like NASDAQ or a stock exchange like the American Stock Exchange. Accordingly, our shareholders may have difficulty reselling any of their shares.

State securities laws may limit secondary trading, which may restrict the states in which and conditions under which you can sell the shares offered by this prospectus.

Secondary trading in common stock sold in this offering will not be possible in any state until the common stock is qualified for sale under the applicable securities laws of the state or there is confirmation that an exemption, such as listing in certain recognized securities manuals, is available for secondary trading in the state. If we fail to register or qualify, or to obtain or verify an exemption for the secondary trading of, the common stock in any particular state, the common stock could not be offered or sold to, or purchased by, a resident of that state. In the event that a significant number of states refuse to permit secondary trading in our common stock, the liquidity for the common stock could be significantly impacted thus causing you to realize a loss on your investment.

We may seek to raise additional funds, finance acquisitions or develop strategic relationships by issuing capital stock.

We may finance our operations and develop strategic relationships by issuing equity or debt securities, which could significantly reduce the percentage ownership of our existing stockholders. Furthermore, any newly issued securities could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our existing stock. Moreover, any issuances by us of equity securities may be at or below the prevailing market price of our stock and in any event may have a dilutive impact on your ownership interest, which could cause the market price of our stock to decline.

If we fail to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting, the price of our common stock may be adversely affected.

Our internal control over financial reporting may have weaknesses and conditions that could require correction or remediation, the disclosure of which may have an adverse impact on the price of our common stock. We are required to establish and maintain appropriate internal controls over financial reporting. Failure to establish those controls, or any failure of those controls once established, could adversely affect our public disclosures regarding our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.

Rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 require an annual assessment of internal controls over financial reporting, and for certain issuers an attestation of this assessment by the issuer’s independent registered public accounting firm. The standards that must be met for management to assess the internal controls over financial reporting as effective are evolving and complex, and require significant documentation, testing, and possible remediation to meet the detailed standards. We expect to incur significant expenses and to devote resources to Section 404 compliance on an ongoing basis. It is difficult for us to predict how long it will take or costly it will be to complete the assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting for each year and to remediate any deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting. As a result, we may not be able to complete the assessment and remediation process on a timely basis. In addition, management’s assessment of internal controls over financial reporting may identify weaknesses and conditions that need to be addressed in our internal controls over financial reporting or other matters that may raise concerns for investors. Any actual or perceived weaknesses and conditions that need to be addressed in our internal control over financial reporting or disclosure of management’s assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting may have an adverse impact on the price of our common stock.

With the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023 based on the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013). Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2023, based on those criteria, because we did not have sufficient segregation of duties, and because we did not establish a formal written policy for the approval, identification and authorization of related party transactions.

We are susceptible to general economic conditions, natural catastrophic events and public health crises, and a potential downturn in advertising and marketing spending by advertisers could adversely affect our operating results in the near future.

Our business is subject to the impact of natural catastrophic events, such as earthquakes, or floods, public health crisis, such as disease outbreaks, epidemics, or pandemics, and all these could result in a decrease or sharp downturn of economies, including our markets and business locations in the current and future periods. The outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) resulted in increased travel restrictions, and shutdown of businesses, which may cause slower recovery of the economy. We may experience impact from quarantines, market downturns and changes in customer behavior related to pandemic fears and impact on our workforce if the virus continues to spread. In addition, one or more of our customers, partners, service providers or suppliers may experience financial distress, delayed or defaults on payment, file for bankruptcy protection, sharp diminishing of business, or suffer disruptions in their business due to the outbreak. Any decreased collectability of accounts receivable, bankruptcy of small and medium businesses, or early termination of agreements due to deterioration in economic conditions could negatively impact our results of operations.

CYBERSECURITY.

Our board of directors and senior management recognize the critical importance of maintaining the trust and confidence of our clients, business partners and employees. Our management, led by our Chief Executive Officer, is actively involved in oversight of our risk management efforts, and cybersecurity represents an important component of the Company’s overall approach to enterprise risk management (“ERM”). Our cybersecurity processes and practices are fully integrated into the Company’s ERM efforts. In general, we seek to address cybersecurity risks through a cross-functional approach that is focused on preserving the confidentiality, security, and availability of the information that we collect and store by identifying, preventing and mitigating cybersecurity threats and effectively responding to cybersecurity incidents when they occur. In addition, we regularly review cybersecurity trends and, partially as a result of our prior cybersecurity exposure, have moved some of our internal servers to off-site locations.

Risk Management and Strategy

As one of the critical elements of our overall ERM approach, our cybersecurity efforts are focused on the following key areas:

	●	Governance: Management oversees cybersecurity risk mitigation and reports to the board of directors any cybersecurity incidents.

	●	Collaborative Approach: We have implemented a cross-functional approach to identifying, preventing, and mitigating cybersecurity threats and incidents, while also implementing controls and procedures that provide for the prompt escalation of certain cybersecurity incidents so that decisions regarding the public disclosure and reporting of such incidents can be made by management in a timely manner.

	●	Technical Safeguards: We deploy technical safeguards that are designed to protect our information systems from cybersecurity threats, including firewalls, intrusion prevention and detection systems, anti-malware functionality and access controls, which are evaluated and improved through vulnerability assessments and cybersecurity threat intelligence.

Third parties also play a role in our cybersecurity. We engage third-party service providers to conduct evaluations of our security controls, independent audits or consulting on best practices to address new challenges.

While we have experienced cybersecurity threats in the past in the normal course of business and expect to continue to experience such threats from time to time, to date, none have had a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Even with the approach we take to cybersecurity, we may not be successful in preventing or mitigating a cybersecurity incident that could have a material adverse effect on us.

ITEM 2.

PROPERTIES.

We rent our principal office space in an executive office suite facility on a month-to-basis at a rate of $120 per month.

Effective January 1, 2024, the Company entered into a lease agreement for a sub-office in Watchung, New Jersey with a term of 12 months and monthly lease payments of $500.

ITEM 5.

MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.

Market Information

Our common stock is quoted on the “Pink Sheets” published by OTC Markets Group, Inc. under the symbol “DLOC.”

As of January 18, 2024, we had 80 holders of record of our common stock. The actual number of stockholders is greater than this number of record holders and includes stockholders who are beneficial owners but whose shares are held in street name by brokers and other nominees.

Dividend Policy

We have not declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We currently expect to retain future earnings, if any, for the development of our business.

Common Stock

Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, authorize the issuance of up to two billion (2,000,000,000) shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share. Holders of shares of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters to be voted on by the stockholders. Holders of common stock have cumulative voting rights. Holders of shares of common stock are entitled to share ratably in dividends, if any, as may be declared, from time to time by the Board of Directors in its discretion, from funds legally available therefor. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of our company, the holders of shares of common stock are entitled to share pro rata all assets remaining after payment in full of all liabilities. Holders of common stock have no preemptive or other subscription rights, and there are no conversion rights or redemption or sinking fund provisions with respect to such shares.

As of March 20, 2024, our common stock was held by 79 stockholders of record, and we had 733,766,705 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. We believe that the number of beneficial owners is substantially greater than the number of record holders because a significant portion of our outstanding common stock is held of record in broker street names for the benefit of individual investors. The transfer agent of our common stock is Worldwide Stock Transfer, LLC, One University Plaza, Suite 505, Hackensack, New Jersey 07601.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

Since the date of the Company’s last quarterly report filed on November 2, 2023 and through March 20, 2024, there were the following sales of unregistered securities:

Effective January 12, 2024, February 7, 2024 and March 11, 2024 we obtained funding of $80,000, $195,000, and $98,000, respectively, under a convertible promissory note with Bountiful Capital, LLC that was initially entered into on November 6, 2023. The note is convertible at the lesser of (a) $0.001 per share of Common Stock or (b) Fifty Percent (50%) of the lowest trade price of Common Stock recorded on any trade day after the Effective Date, or (c) the lowest effective price per share granted to any person or entity, including the Lender but excluding officers and directors of the Borrower, after the Effective Date to acquire Common Stock.

Effective March 12, 2024 we entered into a convertible promissory note for $500,000 with Bountiful Capital, LLC and received initial proceeds of $102,000. The note is convertible at the lesser of (a) $0.001 per share of Common Stock or (b) Fifty Percent (50%) of the lowest trade price of Common Stock recorded on any trade day after the Effective Date, or (c) the lowest effective price per share granted to any person or entity, including the Lender but excluding officers and directors of the Borrower, after the Effective Date to acquire Common Stock.

The foregoing transactions did not involve any underwriters, underwriting discounts or commissions, or any public offering. We believe that the offers, sales, and issuances of the above securities were exempt from registration under the Securities Act by virtue of Section 3(a)(9) and 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act or Regulation D promulgated thereunder as transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

None.

ITEM 7.

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

The following discussion and analysis should be read together with our financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this filing. This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting our current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. See “Forward-Looking Statements” for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with these statements. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those discussed in our forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this annual report.

Cautionary Statements

This Form 10-K contains financial projections and other “forward-looking statements,” as that term is used in federal securities laws, about our financial condition, results of operations, and business. These statements include, among others:

●

statements concerning the potential for benefits that we may experience from our business activities and certain transactions we contemplate or have completed; and

●

statements of our expectations, future plans and strategies, anticipated developments, and other matters that are not historical facts. These statements may be made expressly in this Form 10-K. You can find many of these statements by looking for words such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” or similar expressions used in this Form 10-K. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties that may cause the Company’s actual results to be materially different from any future results expressed or implied by the Company in those statements. The most important facts that could prevent the Company from achieving its stated goals include, but are not limited to, the following:

(a)

volatility or decline of the Company’s stock price;

(b)

potential fluctuation in quarterly results;

(c)

failure of the Company to earn revenues or profits;

(d)

inadequate capital to continue or expand its business, and inability to raise additional capital or financing to implement its business plans;

(e)

failure to develop effective satellite links to mobile phones;

(f)

rapid and significant changes in markets;

(g)

litigation with or legal claims and allegations by outside parties;

(h)

insufficient revenues to cover operating costs;

(i)

aspects of the Company’s business are not proprietary and in general the Company is subject to inherent competition;

(j)

further dilution of existing shareholders’ ownership in Company;

(k)

uncollectible accounts and the need to incur expenses to collect amounts owed to the Company;

(l)

inability to make business and asset acquisitions in the industries we seek due to a lack of capital or financing, purchase prices that are too high, terms that are too onerous, a lack of attractive candidates for acquisition, and strong competition for business and asset acquisitions from bigger, better capitalized competitors; and

(m)

failure of newly acquired business or assets to operate profitability or perform as expected.

There is no assurance that the Company will be profitable. The Company may not be able to successfully develop, manage, or market its products and services. The Company may not be able to attract or retain qualified executives and technology personnel. The Company may not be able to obtain customers for its products or services. The Company’s products and services may become obsolete. Government regulation may hinder the Company’s business. Additional dilution in outstanding stock ownership may be incurred due to the issuance of more shares, warrants, and stock options, the exercise of outstanding warrants and stock options, or the issuance and conversion of convertible debt.

Because the statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. The Company cautions you not to place undue reliance on the statements, which speak only as of the date of this Form 10-K. The cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section should be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that the Company or persons acting on its behalf may issue. The Company does not undertake any obligation to review or confirm analysts’ expectations or estimates or to release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 10-K or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes to those statements. In addition to historical information, the following discussion and other parts of this report contain forward-looking information that involves risks and uncertainties.

Results of Operations

Year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022

Revenues

Revenues were $25,846 and $23,068 for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Monthly payments are received by the Company from wireless carriers, with the Company paying the property owner a percentage of revenues ranging from 70% to 85%. The net amount is retained by the Company as consideration for its intermediary services and recorded as revenues.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses increased to $3,958,233 in the year ended December 31, 2023 from $3,656,684 in the year ended December 31, 2022. Most of the increase can be explained by the research and development agreement the Company entered into with Florida International University (FIU) whereby we made payments of $250,000 during the current year. We also incurred approximately $128,000 more of selling and marketing fees in the current year versus the prior year.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense

Depreciation and amortization expense of $2,000 in each of the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 consisted of the amortization of intangible assets acquired in the SCS LLC business acquisition.

Other Income (Expense)

Total other income (expense) was $(788,807) and $4,604,630 for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Our interest expense increased to $985,562 in the year ended December 31, 2023 from $509,633 in the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase in interest expense in the current fiscal year resulted primarily from new debt being entered into with embedded conversion options that resulted in the recognition of financing fees and debt discounts that were being amortized over the life of the notes. In the prior year amortization of debt discounts were less and convertible notes payable were fully converted to common stock, therefore reducing interest expense.

We reported a non-cash gain on change in derivative liabilities of $196,755 and $5,108,229 in the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. We estimate the fair value of the derivatives associated with our convertible notes payable and stock options using Black-Scholes and/or multinomial lattice models based on projections of various potential future outcomes. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements, and probabilities of certain outcomes based on management projections. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management’s judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.

We recognized a gain on forgiveness of debt of $6,034 in the year ended December 31, 2022. Pursuant to an agreement with a lender, the Company agreed to extinguish a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $40,000 with four payments of $10,000, which were made in the months of February, March, April and May 2022. Accrued interest payable of $6,034 was forgiven by the lender in May 2022, which amount is reported as other income.

Net Income (Loss)

As a result of the activity discussed above, we reported a net loss of $4,723,194 in the year ended December 31, 2023 and net income of $969,014 in the year ended December 31, 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2023, we had total current assets of $44,104 and total current liabilities of $2,657,539, resulting in a working capital deficit of $2,613,435. Included in our current liabilities as of December 31, 2023 are derivative liabilities totaling $2,166,112, which we do not anticipate will require cash payments to settle.

We funded our operations during the year ended December 31, 2023 from the proceeds from the issuance of our Series E Preferred Stock of $440,000 and proceeds from the issuance of convertible notes payable of $627,000. We anticipate we will continue to fund our operations from this source in the short term.

Recent Financings

Effective January 12, 2024, February 7, 2024 and March 11, 2024 we obtained funding of $80,000, $195,000, and $98,000, respectively, under a convertible promissory note that was initially entered into on November 6, 2023.

Effective March 12, 2024 we entered into a convertible promissory note for up to $500,000 and obtained funding of $102,000.

Sources and Uses of Cash

During the year ended December 31, 2023, we used net cash of $1,054,009 in operating activities as a result of our net loss of $4,723,194, non-cash expenses totaling $3,839,914, an increase in accounts payable of $11,155 and an increase in accrued interest, notes payable of $27,663, offset by non-cash gains totaling $196,755 and decreases in accounts payable – related party of $10,000, and accrued expenses of $2,792.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we used net cash of $666,358 in operating activities as a result of our net income of $969,014, non-cash expenses totaling $3,491,605 and an increase in accrued interest, notes payable of $21,712, offset by non-cash gains totaling $5,114,263 and decreases in accounts payable of $13,880, accounts payable – related party of $20,000, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $546.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, we had no investing activities.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we used net cash of $500 in investing activities, comprised of the payment of deposit.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,067,000 during the year ended December 31, 2023, comprised of proceeds from convertible notes payable of $627,000 and proceeds from the issuance of Series E Preferred Stock of $440,000.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $629,605 during the year ended December 31, 2022, comprised of proceeds from convertible notes payable of $150,000 and proceeds from the issuance of Series E Preferred Stock of $520,000, partially offset by repayment of convertible notes payable of $40,395.

Historically, proceeds received from the issuance of debt and preferred stock have been sufficient to fund our current operating expenses. We estimate that we will need to raise substantial capital or financing over the next twelve months in order to explore business expansion opportunities and provide the necessary capital to meet our other general and administrative expenses. We anticipate that we will incur operating losses in the next twelve months as our revenue is not expected to exceed our investment and operating costs. Therefore, our future operations are dependent on our ability to secure additional financing. Future financing transactions, if available, may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. However, the trading price of our common stock and the economy and status of the U.S. equity and debt markets can impact our ability to obtain financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities.

Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses 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.

Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of operations. To address these risks, we must, among other things, seek growth opportunities through investment and acquisitions, implement and successfully execute our business strategy, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. We cannot assure that we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements. The following is a summary of those accounting policies that involve significant estimates and judgment of management.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements. Significant estimates made in preparing these financial statements include the estimate of useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, operating lease obligations, impairment of assets, the deferred tax valuation allowance, the fair value of stock options and derivative liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Derivative Liabilities

We have identified the conversion features of our convertible notes payable and certain stock options as derivatives. Where the number of common shares to be issued under these agreements is indeterminate, the Company has concluded that the equity environment is tainted, and all additional options, convertible debt and equity are included in the value of the derivatives. We estimate the fair value of the derivatives using the Black-Scholes pricing model and a multinomial lattice model based on projections of various potential future outcomes. We estimate the fair value of the derivative liabilities at the inception of the financial instruments, at the date of conversions to equity and at each reporting date, recording a derivative liability, debt discount, additional paid-in capital and a gain or loss on change in derivative liabilities as applicable. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements and probabilities of certain outcomes based on management projections. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management’s judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments require disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, we believe the amounts reported for cash, accounts payable, accounts payable – related party, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, accrued interest, notes payable and convertible notes payable approximate fair value because of their short maturities.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

	●	Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;
	●	Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and
	●	Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

We measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. Liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows at December 31, 2023 and 2022:

	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
December 31, 2023:
Derivative liabilities	$	2,166,112	$	-	$	-	$	2,166,112

Total liabilities measured at fair value	$	2,166,112	$	-	$	-	$	2,166,112

December 31, 2022:
Derivative liabilities	$	1,233,679	$	-	$	-	$	1,233,679

Total liabilities measured at fair value	$	1,233,679	$	-	$	-	$	1,233,679

Revenue Recognition

We have adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606) pursuant to which revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or 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; and

●

recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

Through its wholly owned subsidiary and effective January 7, 2021, the Company acts as an intermediary or agent to facilitate a platform through which property owners market real estate, physical assets and billboards to wireless telephone carriers for placement of wireless communications network equipment. Contracts have been signed among the Company, the property owner, and the wireless telephone operator. Monthly payments are received by the Company from the wireless carriers, with the Company paying the property owner a percentage of revenues ranging from 70% to 85%. The net amount is retained by the Company as consideration for its intermediary services and recorded as revenues in the accompanying statements of operations.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award granted using either the Black-Scholes option pricing model or a multinomial lattice model based on projections of various potential future outcomes and recognized over the period in which the award vests. For stock awards no longer expected to vest, any previously recognized stock compensation expense is reversed in the period of termination. The stock-based compensation expense is included in general and administrative expenses.

Based on an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15, as of December 31, 2023, our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer also concluded that, as of December 31, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. With the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023 based on the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013). Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2023, based on those criteria. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. We have identified the following material weaknesses:

	1.	As of December 31, 2023, due to the inherent issue of segregation of duties in a small company, we have relied heavily on entity or management review controls and engaged an outside financial consultant to lessen the issue of segregation of duties over accounting, financial close procedures and controls over financial statement disclosure. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.

	2.	As of December 31, 2023, we did not establish a formal written policy for the approval, identification, and authorization of related party transactions.

Because of these material weaknesses, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on the criteria established in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the COSO.

Changes in Internal Controls

During the three months ended December 31, 2023, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

No Attestation Report by Independent Registered Accountant

The annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Mr. Elton’s extensive senior level management experience, specifically in new business development and partnership strategies, qualify him to serve on the Board of Directors.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships among our executive officers and directors.

Election of Directors and Officers

Directors are elected to serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors have been elected and qualified. Officers are appointed to serve until the meeting of the board of directors following the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors have been elected and qualified.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

Although we have not adopted a formal policy on whether the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions should be separate or combined, we have determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to separate these roles.

Our Board of Directors focuses on the most significant risks facing our Company and our Company’s general risk management strategy, and also ensures that risks undertaken by our Company are consistent with the Board’s appetite for risk. While the Board oversees our Company’s risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing our Company and that our Board leadership structure supports this approach.

Limitation of Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors

Under the Nevada Revised Statutes and our Articles of Incorporation, our directors will have no personal liability to us or our stockholders for monetary damages incurred as the result of the breach or alleged breach by a director of his “duty of care.” This provision does not apply to the directors’ (i) acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing and culpable violation of law, (ii) acts or omissions that a director believes to be contrary to the best interests of the corporation or our shareholders or that involve the absence of good faith on the part of the director, (iii) approval of any transaction from which a director derives an improper personal benefit, (iv) acts or omissions that show a reckless disregard for the director’s duty to the corporation or our shareholders in circumstances in which the director was aware, or should have been aware, in the ordinary course of performing a director’s duties, of a risk of serious injury to the corporation or our shareholders, (v) acts or omissions that constituted an unexcused pattern of inattention that amounts to an abdication of the director’s duty to the corporation or our shareholders, or (vi) approval of an unlawful dividend, distribution, stock repurchase or redemption. This provision would generally absolve directors of personal liability for negligence in the performance of duties, including gross negligence.

The effect of this provision in our Articles of Incorporation is to eliminate the rights of Digital Locations and our stockholders (through stockholder’s derivative suits on behalf of Digital Locations) to recover monetary damages against a director for breach of his fiduciary duty of care as a director (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior) except in the situations described in clauses (i) through (vi) above. This provision does not limit nor eliminate the rights of Digital Locations or any stockholder to seek non-monetary relief such as an injunction or rescission in the event of a breach of a director’s duty of care. In addition, our Articles of Incorporation provide that if Nevada law is amended to authorize the future elimination or limitation of the liability of a director, then the liability of the directors will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the law, as amended. The Nevada Revised Statutes grants corporations the right to indemnify their directors, officers, employees and agents in accordance with applicable law. Our bylaws provide for indemnification of such persons to the full extent allowable under applicable law. These provisions will not alter the liability of the directors under federal securities laws.

We intend to enter into agreements to indemnify our directors and officers, in addition to the indemnification provided for in our bylaws. These agreements, among other things, indemnify our directors and officers for certain expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, and settlement amounts incurred by any such person in any action or proceeding, including any action by or in the right of Digital Locations, arising out of such person’s services as a director or officer of Digital Locations, any subsidiary of Digital Locations or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at the request of Digital Locations. We believe that these provisions and agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified directors and officers.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling Digital Locations pursuant to the foregoing provisions, Digital Locations has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

During the past ten years, none of our directors, executive officers, promoters, control persons, or nominees has been:

●	the subject of any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time;

●	convicted in a criminal proceeding or is subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses);

●

subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction or any Federal or State authority, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities;

●	found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law;

●

the subject of, or a party to, any Federal or State judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, relating to an alleged violation of (a) any Federal or State securities or commodities law or regulation; (b) any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease-and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order; or (c) any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or

●

the subject of, or a party to, any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any self-regulatory organization (as defined in Section 3(a)(26) of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78c(a)(26))), any registered entity (as defined in Section 1(a)(29) of the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. 1(a)(29))), or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a member.

Board Committees

Director Independence. The board of directors has analyzed the independence of each director and has concluded that Byron Elton is considered an independent director in accordance with the director independence standards of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) the NYSE Amex Equities and The Nasdaq Capital Market.

Audit Committee. Our Board of Directors has appointed an audit committee. During our fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, our audit committee was comprised of Byron Elton, who also serves as our audit committee financial expert. Mr. Elton qualifies as independent as defined in Rule 4200 of the listing standards of The Nasdaq Capital Market. Our audit committee is authorized to:

●	appoint, compensate, and oversee the work of any registered public accounting firm employed by us;

●	resolve any disagreements between management and the auditor regarding financial reporting;

●	pre-approve all auditing and non-audit services;

●	retain independent counsel, accountants, or others to advise the audit committee or assist in the conduct of an investigation;

●	oversee that management has established and maintained processes to assure our compliance with all applicable laws, regulations and corporate policy.

The audit committee held four meetings during fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

Compensation Committee. We currently do not have a compensation committee, so all decisions with respect to management compensation are made by the whole Board. Our Board:

●	determines compensation of our directors, executive officers and key employees;

●	establishes appropriate incentive compensation and equity-based plans and to administer such plans;

●	evaluates the performance of our management; and

●	performs such other duties and responsibilities pertaining to compensation.

Nominating Committee. Our nominating committee is comprised of Byron Elton. Our nominating committee is authorized to:

●	develop and recommend to the Board of Directors corporate governance guidelines applicable to us.

Indebtedness of Executive Officers

No executive officer, director or any member of these individuals’ immediate families or any corporation or organization with whom any of these individuals is an affiliate is or has been indebted to us since the beginning of our last fiscal year.

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to all of our directors, officers and employees. The text of the Code of Ethics can be accessed on Digital Location’s Internet website at www.digitallocations.com. A copy of the Code of Ethics has also been filed as an exhibit to our annual report for the year ending December 31, 2007, filed with the SEC on March 26, 2008, and incorporated herein by reference. Any waiver of the provisions of the Code of Ethics for executive officers and directors may be made only by the Audit Committee and, in the case of a waiver for members of the Audit Committee, by the Board of Directors. Any such waivers will be promptly disclosed to our shareholders.

ITEM 11.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The following Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes the material elements of compensation for our executive officers identified in the Summary Compensation Table (“Named Executive Officers”), and executive officers that we may hire in the future. As more fully described below, our Board of Directors makes all decisions for the total direct compensation of our executive officers, including the Named Executive Officers. We do not have a compensation committee, so all decisions with respect to management compensation are made by the whole Board.

Compensation Program Objectives and Rewards

Our compensation philosophy is based on the premise of attracting, retaining, and motivating exceptional leaders, setting high goals, working toward the common objectives of meeting the expectations of customers and stockholders, and rewarding outstanding performance. Following this philosophy, in determining executive compensation, we consider all relevant factors, such as the competition for talent, our desire to link pay with performance in the future, the use of equity to align executive interests with those of our stockholders, individual contributions, teamwork and performance, and each executive’s total compensation package. We strive to accomplish these objectives by compensating all executives with total compensation packages consisting of a combination of competitive base salary and incentive compensation.

While we have only hired three executives since inception because our business has not grown sufficiently to justify additional hires, we expect to grow and hire in the future. To date, we have not applied a formal compensation program to determine the compensation of the Named Executives Officers. In the future, as we and our management team expand, our Board of Directors expects to add independent members, form a compensation committee comprised of independent directors, and apply the compensation philosophy and policies described in this section of the Form 10-K.

The primary purpose of the compensation and benefits described below is to attract, retain, and motivate highly talented individuals when we do hire, who will engage in the behaviors necessary to enable us to succeed in our mission while upholding our values in a highly competitive marketplace. Different elements are designed to engender different behaviors, and the actual incentive amounts which may be awarded to each Named Executive Officer are subject to the annual review of the Board of Directors. The following is a brief description of the key elements of our planned executive compensation structure.

	●	Base salary and benefits are designed to attract and retain employees over time.
	●	Incentive compensation awards are designed to focus employees on the business objectives for a particular year.
	●	Equity incentive awards, such as stock options and non-vested stock, focus executives’ efforts on the behaviors within the recipients’ control that they believe are designed to ensure our long-term success as reflected in increases to our stock prices over a period of several years, growth in our profitability and other elements.
	●	Severance and change in control plans are designed to facilitate a company’s ability to attract and retain executives as we compete for talented employees in a marketplace where such protections are commonly offered. We currently have not given separation benefits to any of our Name Executive Officers.

Benchmarking

We have not yet adopted benchmarking but may do so in the future. When making compensation decisions, our Board of Directors may compare each element of compensation paid to our Named Executive Officers against a report showing comparable compensation metrics from a group that includes both publicly-traded and privately-held companies. Our Board believes that while such peer group benchmarks are a point of reference for measurement, they are not necessarily a determining factor in setting executive compensation as each executive officer’s compensation relative to the benchmark varies based on scope of responsibility and time in the position. We have not yet formally established our peer group for this purpose.

The Elements of Digital Location’s Compensation Program

Base Salary

Executive officer base salaries are based on job responsibilities and individual contribution. The Board reviews the base salaries of our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers, considering factors such as corporate progress toward achieving objectives (without reference to any specific performance-related targets) and individual performance experience and expertise. Additional factors reviewed by the Board of Directors in determining appropriate base salary levels and raises include subjective factors related to corporate and individual performance. For the year ended December 31, 2023, all executive officer base salary decisions were approved by the Board of Directors.

Our Board of Directors determines base salaries for the Named Executive Officers at the beginning of each fiscal year, and the Board proposes new base salary amounts, if appropriate, based on its evaluation of individual performance and expected future contributions. We do not have a 401(k) Plan, but if we adopt one in the future, base salary would be the only element of compensation that would be used in determining the amount of contributions permitted under the 401(k) Plan.

Incentive Compensation Awards

The Named Executive Officers have not been paid bonuses and our Board of Directors has not yet established a formal compensation policy for the determination of bonuses. If our revenue grows and bonuses become affordable and justifiable, we expect to use the following parameters in justifying and quantifying bonuses for our Named Executive Officers and other officers of Digital Locations: (1) the growth in our revenue, (2) the growth in our earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted (“EBITDA”), and (3) our stock price. The Board has not adopted specific performance goals and target bonus amounts for any of our fiscal years, but may do so in the future.

Equity Incentive Awards

In November 2011, our Board adopted a stock option plan (the “2011 Plan”) under which 2,000,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance. No stock option awards have yet been made to any of our Named Executives or other officers or employees of Digital Locations under the 2011 Plan. Our Board granted a total of 6,223 stock options, on a post Stock-Split basis, to officers and directors outside of our 2011 Plan. The 6,223 stock options expired unexercised in September 2020.

On October 19, 2020, our Board granted non-qualified stock options outside of the 2011 Plan to purchase 5,000,000 shares of our common stock to our current Chief Executive Officer. These non-qualified stock options vest 1/24^th per month over 24 months and are exercisable on a cash or cashless basis at $0.0108 per share for a period of five years from the date of issuance.

On December 22, 2020, our Board granted non-qualified stock options outside of the 2011 Plan to purchase 25,000,000 shares of our common stock to our current President, 5,000,000 shares of our common stock to a member of our Board of Directors, and a total of 175,000,000 shares of our common stock to two consultants. These non-qualified stock options vest 1/36th per month over 36 months and are exercisable on a cash or cashless basis at $0.017 per share for a period of five years from the date of issuance.

On January 28, 2021, our Board granted non-qualified stock options outside of the 2011 Plan to purchase a total of 20,000,000 shares of our common stock to two employees. These non-qualified stock options vest 1/36th per month over 36 months and are exercisable on a cash or cashless basis at $0.05 per share for a period of five years from the date of issuance.

On December 1, 2021, our Board granted non-qualified stock options outside of the 2011 Plan to purchase a total of 504,000,000 shares of our common stock to our Chief Executive Officer. These options vest 84,000,000 shares in month 6 and 14,000,000 shares per month in each of the 30 months thereafter, and are exercisable on a cash or cashless basis at $0.0074 per share for a period of ten years from the date of issuance.

On February 8, 2022, our Board granted non-qualified stock options outside of the 2011 Plan to purchase a total of 45,000,000 shares of our common stock to a consultant. These non-qualified stock options vest 1/36th per month over 36 months and are exercisable on a cash or cashless basis at $0.0081 per share for a period of ten years from the date of issuance.

On February 8, 2022, our Board granted non-qualified stock options outside of the 2011 Plan to purchase a total of 75,000,000 shares of our common stock to our President and Chairman of our Board of Directors. These non-qualified stock options vest 1/36th per month over 36 months and are exercisable on a cash or cashless basis at $0.0081 per share for a period of ten years from the date of issuance.

These equity incentive awards, we believe, motivate our officers, consultants and employees to work to improve our business and stock price performance, thereby further linking the interests of our senior management and our stockholders. The Board considers several factors in determining whether awards are granted to an executive officer, including those previously described, as well as the executive’s position, his or her performance and responsibilities, and the number of options or other awards, if any, currently held by the officer and their vesting schedule. Our policy prohibits backdating options or granting them retroactively.

Benefits and Prerequisites

At this stage of our business, we have limited benefits and no prerequisites for our employees other than health insurance and vacation benefits that are generally comparable to those offered by other small private and public companies or as may be required by applicable state employment laws. We do not have a 401(k) Plan or any other retirement plan for our Named Executive Officers. We may adopt these plans and confer other fringe benefits for our executive officers in the future if our business grows sufficiently to enable us to afford them.

Separation and Change in Control Arrangements

We have employment agreements with our Named Executive Officers as more fully described below. None of our Named Executive Officers are eligible for specific benefits or payments if their employment or engagement terminates in a separation or if there is a change of control.

Executive Officer Compensation

The following table sets forth the annual compensation paid or accrued by us for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 for services rendered in all capacities by our Chief Executive Officer, our President, and our two most highly compensated consultants whose total compensation exceeded $100,000, which we refer to as our “Named Executive Officers.”

Stock Option and Other Long-Term Incentive Plan

On November 2, 2011, our Board of Directors adopted the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 2011 Plan. Under the 2011 Plan, options may be granted which are intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, or which are not intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options thereunder. In addition, direct grants of stock or restricted stock may be awarded. There are 2,000,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2011 Plan. A summary of the terms and provisions of the 2011 Plan are described below.

The primary purpose of the 2011 Plan is to attract and retain the best available personnel in order to promote the success of our business and to facilitate the ownership of our stock by employees and others who provide services to us. Under the 2011 Plan, options may be granted to employees, officers, directors or consultants of ours. The term of each option granted under the 2011 Plan will be contained in a stock option agreement between the optionee and us and such terms shall be determined by a committee of the Board of Directors consistent with the provisions of the 2011 Plan, including the following:

●

The purchase price of the common stock subject to each incentive stock option will not be less than the fair market value (as set forth in the 2011 Plan), or in the case of the grant of an incentive stock option to a principal stockholder, not less than 110% of fair market value of such common stock at the time such option is granted.

●

The dates on which each option (or portion thereof) will be exercisable and the conditions precedent to such exercise, if any, shall be fixed by the committee delegated by the Board of Directors, in its discretion, at the time such option is granted. Unless otherwise provided in the grant agreement, in the event of a change of control (as set forth in the Incentive Stock Plan), the committee delegated by the Board may accelerate the vesting and exercisability of outstanding options all unvested shares shall immediately become vested;

●

Any option granted to an employee of ours will become exercisable over a period of no longer than five years. No option will in any event be exercisable after ten years from, and no Incentive Stock Option granted to a ten percent stockholder will become exercisable after the expiration of five years from, the date of the option;

●

No option will be transferable, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and any option may be exercised during the lifetime of the optionee only by such optionee. No option granted under the 2011 Plan will be subject to execution, attachment or other process;

●

In the event of any change in our outstanding common stock by reason of a stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of shares, recapitalization, merger, or similar event, the Board of Directors or the committee delegated by the Board may adjust proportionally (a) the number of shares of common stock (i) reserved under the 2011 Plan, (ii) available for Incentive Stock Options and Non-statutory Options and (iii) covered by outstanding stock awards or restricted stock purchase offers; (b) the exercise prices related to outstanding grants so that each optionee’s proportionate interest is maintained as immediately before such event; and (c) the appropriate fair market value and other price determinations for such grants. In the event of a corporate merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, separation, reorganization or liquidation, the Board of Directors or the committee delegated by the Board of Directors will be authorized to issue or assume stock options, whether or not in a transaction to which Section 424(a) of the Code, applies, and other grants by means of substitution of new grant agreements for previously issued grants or an assumption of previously issued grants.

The Board of Directors may, insofar as permitted by law, from time to time, suspend or terminate the 2011 Plan or revise or amend it in any respect whatsoever, except that without the approval of our stockholders, no such revision or amendment will (i) increase the number of shares subject to the 2011 Plan, (ii) reduce the exercise price of outstanding options or effect repricing through cancellations and re-grants of new options, (iii) materially increase the benefits to participants, (iv) materially change the class of persons eligible to receive grants under the 2011 Plan; (v) decrease the exercise price of any grant to below 100% of the fair market value on the date of grant; or (vi) extend the term of any options beyond that provided in the 2011 Plan; provided, however, no such action will alter or impair the rights and obligations under any option, or stock award, or restricted stock purchase offer outstanding as of the date thereof without the written consent of the participant thereunder. As of the date of this report, no stock options are currently outstanding under our 2011 Plan.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures of Audit and Non-Audit Services of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The audit committee’s policy is to pre-approve, typically at the beginning of our fiscal year, all audit and non-audit services, other than de minimis non-audit services, to be provided by an independent registered public accounting firm. These services may include, among others, audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services and such services are generally subject to a specific budget. The independent registered public accounting firm and management are required to periodically report to the full Board of Directors regarding the extent of services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm in accordance with this pre-approval, and the fees for the services performed to date. As part of the Board’s review, the Board will evaluate other known potential engagements of the independent auditor, including the scope of work proposed to be performed and the proposed fees, and approve or reject each service, taking into account whether the services are permissible under applicable law and the possible impact of each non-audit service on the independent auditor’s independence from management. At audit committee meetings throughout the year, the auditor and management may present subsequent services for approval. Typically, these would be services such as due diligence for an acquisition, that would not have been known at the beginning of the year.

The audit committee has considered the provision of non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm to be compatible with maintaining their independence. The audit committee will continue to approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm.

As of the date of this filing, our current policy is to not engage M&K CPAS, PLLC to provide, among other things, bookkeeping services, appraisal or valuation services, or international audit services. The policy provides that we engage M&K CPAS, PLLC to provide audit and other assurance services, such as review of SEC reports or filings.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Digital Locations, Inc

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Digital Location, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years ended and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered net losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters are discussed in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Derivatives

Company uses management estimates on various inputs to the calculation. Auditing a specialist’s calculation of the value of derivatives can be a significant judgment given the fact that the Company uses the specialists estimates on various inputs to the calculation. As discussed in Note 8 to the financial statements, the company has a derivative liability due to a tainted equity environment.

To evaluate the appropriateness of the fair value determined by management, we examined and evaluated the inputs management used in calculating the fair value of the derivative liability. To evaluate the appropriateness of the estimates used by the derivative specialist, we examined and evaluated the inputs the specialist used in calculating the value of the derivatives.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2018.

DIGITAL LOCATIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Years Ended December 31, 2023 and 2022

1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Organization

Digital Locations, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on August 25, 2006 as Zingerang, Inc. On April 2, 2007, the Company changed its name to Carbon Sciences, Inc. and on September 14, 2017, the Company changed its name to Digital Locations, Inc.

On January 7, 2021, the Company, SmallCellSite.com LLC, a Virginia limited liability company (“SCS LLC”) and SmallCellSite, Inc., a newly formed Nevada corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“SCS”) entered into an asset purchase agreement (“APA”) to acquire SCS LLC’s wireless communications marketing and database services business. SCS LLC is a source of more than 80,000 cell sites offered by property owners for use by wireless network operators.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of December 31, 2023, our current liabilities exceeded our current and total assets by $2,613,435 and we had an accumulated deficit of $54,887,744. The Company currently does not have the cash resources to meet its operating commitments for the next twelve months and expects to have ongoing requirements for capital investment or debt to implement its business plan. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon, among other things, raising additional capital. The Company has obtained operating funds primarily from the issuance of convertible debt. Management believes this funding will continue and will provide the additional cash needed to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be successful in accomplishing its objectives. Without such additional capital we may be required to cease operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements. Significant estimates made in preparing these financial statements include the estimate of useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, impairment of assets, the deferred tax valuation allowance, the fair value of stock options and derivative liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the accounts of SCS, its wholly owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

F-8

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with large commercial banks. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insures these balances, up to $250,000. All of the Company’s cash balances at December 31, 2023 and 2022 were insured. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, there were no cash equivalents.

Intangible Assets

The identifiable intangible assets acquired in the SCS acquisition are amortized using the straight-line method over an estimated life of 5 years.

Derivative Liabilities

We have identified the conversion features of some of our convertible notes payable as derivatives due to their variable conversion price. Where the number of common shares to be issued under these agreements is indeterminate, the Company has concluded that the equity environment is tainted, and all additional convertible debt is included in the value of the derivatives. We estimate the fair value of the derivatives using the Black-Scholes pricing model and/or a multinomial lattice model based on projections of various potential future outcomes. We estimate the fair value of the derivative liabilities at the inception of the financial instruments, at the date of conversions to equity and at each reporting date, recording a derivative liability, debt discount, additional paid-in capital and a gain or loss on change in derivative liabilities as applicable. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements and probabilities of certain outcomes based on management projections. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management’s judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments require disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, we believe the amounts reported for cash, accounts payable, accounts payable – related party, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, accrued interest and certain notes payable approximate fair value because of their short maturities.

	●	Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;
	●	Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and
	●	Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

F-9

We measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. Liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows as of December 31, 2023 and 2022:

	Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
December 31, 2023:
Derivative liabilities	$	2,166,112	$	-	$	-	$	2,166,112

Total liabilities measured at fair value	$	2,166,112	$	-	$	-	$	2,166,112

December 31, 2022:
Derivative liabilities	$	1,233,679	$	-	$	-	$	1,233,679

Total liabilities measured at fair value	$	1,233,679	$	-	$	-	$	1,233,679

Revenue Recognition

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; and
	●	recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

Through its wholly owned subsidiary, the Company acts as an intermediary or agent to facilitate a platform through which property owners market real estate, physical assets and billboards to wireless telephone carriers for placement of wireless communications network equipment. Contracts have been signed among the Company, the property owner, and the wireless telephone operator. Monthly payments are received by the Company from the wireless carriers, with the Company paying the property owner a percentage of revenues ranging from 70% to 85%. The net amount is retained by the Company as consideration for its intermediary services and recorded as revenues in the accompanying statements of operations.

Lease Accounting

Pursuant to the underlying contracts, the Company does not own the property and equipment which is leased by cell phone carriers but acts as an intermediary or agent between the property owner and the cell phone carriers. Therefore, in accordance with ASC 842, “Leases,” the Company records revenues net of amounts received from cell phone carriers and payments made to property owners.

Concentrations of Credit Risk, Major Customers, and Major Vendors

During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company received payments from two cell phone carriers, with one carrier representing substantially all payments.

During the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had one landlord receiving all Company payments for lease of billboard site locations.

Basic net income or loss per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income or loss per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the dilutive potential common share equivalents then outstanding. Potential dilutive common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options to acquire common stock, using the treasury stock method and the average market price per share during the period, and shares issuable upon exercise of convertible notes payable.

Basic weighted average number of common shares outstanding is reconciled to diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding as follows:

	2022		2021
	Years Ended December 31,
	2023		2022

Basic weighted average number of shares		708,657,045		433,143,911
Dilutive effect of:
Series B preferred stock		-		949,400,000
Series E preferred stock		-		2,706,666,667
Preferred stock		-		2,706,666,667
Convertible notes payable		-		247,997,718

Diluted weighted average number of shares		708,657,045		4,337,208,296

For the year ended December 31, 2023, potential dilutive securities of 949,400,000 for Series B preferred stock, 3,000,000,000 for Series E preferred stock, and 2,293,933,406 for convertible notes payable had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share; therefore, basic net loss per share is the same as diluted net loss per share.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, 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 measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. We incurred no research and development costs for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Advertising Costs

We expense the cost of advertising and promotional materials when incurred. We incurred no material advertising costs for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award granted using either the Black-Scholes option pricing model or a multinomial lattice model based on projections of various potential future outcomes and recognized over the period in which the award vests or straight-line. For stock awards no longer expected to vest, any previously recognized stock compensation expense is reversed in the period of termination. The stock-based compensation expense is included in general and administrative expenses.

In accordance with the SPA, Investor paid for 34,900 Shares by surrendering to the Company for cancellation, $2,617,690 of principal, $826,566 of accrued interest, and $45,740 in fees through April 2, 2021 under various 10% convertible notes held by Investor. The Series E Preferred Stock was valued by an independent valuation firm at $23,393,601 and the Company recognized a loss on debt extinguishment of $16,490,508 included in other expense in the year ended December 31, 2022 and settled derivative liabilities totaling $3,413,097.

F-17

As an inducement for the Investor entering into the SPA, the Company agreed that Investor will have the right, exercisable in its sole discretion, to purchase the remaining 10,100 of authorized shares of Series E Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $100 per Share at any time until April 2, 2031. In September 2021, the Investor purchased 500 additional shares of Series E Preferred Stock for cash of $50,000, the stated value of the shares.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Investor purchased a total of 5,200 additional shares of Series E Preferred Stock for cash of $520,000, the stated valued of the shares. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Investor purchased a total of 4,400 additional shares of Series E Preferred Stock for cash of $440,000, the stated valued of the shares.

As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had 45,000 and 40,600 shares of Series E Preferred Stock outstanding, respectively, recorded as mezzanine at face value of $4,500,000 and $4,060,000 due to certain default provisions requiring mandatory cash redemption that are outside the control of the Company.

The holders of outstanding Series E Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends pari passu with the holders of common stock, except upon a liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company, in which case the Shares have a preference. Such dividends will be paid equally to all outstanding Shares and common stock, on an as-if-converted basis with respect to the Shares.

In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, either voluntary or involuntary, holders of Shares shall be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its shareholders upon such liquidation, whether such assets are capital or surplus of any nature, an amount equal to $100 for each such Share (as adjusted for any combinations, consolidations, stock distributions, stock splits or stock dividends with respect to such shares), plus all dividends, if any, declared and unpaid thereon as of the date of such distribution, after the payment of any distributions that may be required with respect to the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock, but before any payment is made or any assets distributed to the holders of common stock. After such payment, the remaining assets of the Company will be distributed to the holders of common stock.

If the assets to be distributed to holders of the Shares are insufficient to permit the receipt by such holders of the full preferential amounts, then all of such assets will be distributed among such holders ratably in accordance with the number of such shares then held by each such holder.

Each Share of Series E Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of the Company at a fixed conversion price of $0.0015 per share.

In no event will holders of Shares be entitled to convert any Shares, such that upon conversion the sum of (1) the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the holder and its affiliates (other than shares of common stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Series E Preferred Stock or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other security of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to these limitations), and (2) the number of shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of Shares, would result in beneficial ownership by the holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of common stock. The limitations on conversion may be waived by the Holder upon, at the election of the holder of Shares, not less than 61 days prior notice to the Company, and the provisions of the conversion limitation shall continue to apply until such 61st day (or such later date, as determined by the holder of Shares, as may be specified in such notice of waiver).

Except as required by law, holder of Shares are not entitled to vote, as a separate class or otherwise, on any matter presented to the stockholders of the Company for their action or consideration at any meeting of stockholders of the Company, provided, however, each holder of outstanding Share will be entitled, on the same basis as holders of common stock, to receive notice of such action or meeting and so long as any Shares remain outstanding, the Company will not, without first obtaining the approval of the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding Shares voting together as one class alter or change the rights, preferences or privileges of the Shares so as to affect materially and adversely such Shares.

These options vest 1/36th per month over thirty-six months. These non-qualified stock options were valued by an independent valuation firm at $545,462 using a modified Black Scholes early exercise model and stock option compensation expense is recorded over the vesting period. A derivative liability and a decrease to additional paid-in capital were recorded for this amount.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company reduced the exercise price of 634,000,000 outstanding options, whereby the modification was accounted for as a cancellation and reissuance and $10,670 worth of incremental cost would be recognized over the remaining vesting term.

Risk free interest rates	4.23% - 5.47	%
Years to maturity	0.58 – 2.44

9. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Effective December 1, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors appointed Rich Berliner as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and a member of the Board of Directors.

10. INCOME TAXES

A reconciliation of the income tax provision (benefit) that would result from applying a combined U.S. federal and state rate of 29% to loss before income taxes with the provision (benefit) for income taxes presented in the financial statements is as follows:


	Years Ended December 31,
	2023			2022

Income tax provision (benefit) at statutory rate	$	(1,369,700	)	$	281,000
State income taxes, net of federal benefit		(200	)		(200	)
Non-deductible expenses		1,113,000			1,007,400
Non-taxable losses		57,100			(1,483,900	)
Other		(223,400	)		600
Valuation allowance		423,200			195,100

Income tax expense benefit, total	$	-		$	-

Deferred tax assets (liabilities) are comprised of the following:


	December 31,
	2023			2022

Deferred tax assets:
Net operating loss carryforward	$	5,087,300		$	4,901,900
Research and development credit carryforward		375,300			125,300
Related party accrued expenses		-			11,600
Accrued compensated absences		-			600
Valuation allowance		(5,462,600	)		(5,039,400	)

Deferred tax assets, net, total	$	-		$	-

The ultimate realization of our deferred tax assets is dependent, in part, upon the tax laws in effect, our future earnings, and other events. As of December 31, 2023, we recorded a valuation allowance of $5,462,600 against our net deferred tax asset. In recording the valuation allowance, we were unable to conclude that it is more likely than not that our deferred tax assets will be realized.

As of December 31, 2023, we had a net operating loss carryforward available to offset future taxable income of approximately $18,611,000, which begins to expire at dates that have not been determined. If substantial changes in the Company’s ownership should occur, there would be an annual limitation of the amount of the net operating loss carryforward that could be utilized.

We perform a review of our material tax positions in accordance with recognition and measurement standards established by authoritative accounting literature, which requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more-likely-than-not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements. Based upon our review and evaluation, during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, we concluded the Company had no unrecognized tax benefit that would affect its effective tax rate if recognized.

F-22

We file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in the state of California. With few exceptions, we are no longer subject to U.S. federal, state or local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2012.

We classify any interest and penalties arising from the underpayment of income taxes in our statements of operations and comprehensive loss in other income (expense). As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, we had no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized total rental expense of $7,440 and $9,413, respectively.

Research and Development Agreement

On June 6, 2023, the Company engaged Florida International University (FIU) to perform the research necessary to develop technology that will enable high-speed Internet service to be delivered from satellites directly to smartphones. Under the agreement, the Company is to pay $500,000 to FIU, in four quarterly payments of $125,000 due in July 2023, October 2023, January 2024, and March 2024.
