VIVA ENTERTAINMENT GROUP INC.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Six Months Ended April 30,
2018 and 2017
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Description of Business and History
The Company was incorporated on October
26, 2009 in the State of Nevada. The Company originally engaged in the development of a website and also the design and development
of a catalogue to sell over the counter and prescription medications, and supplements. In 2012, the Company undertook a change
in focus to the natural resources sector where it was engaged in the acquisition and exploration of base metals and mineral mining
properties.
On April 5, 2016, the Company
completed the purchase of Viva Entertainment Group, Inc. (“Viva Entertainment”), a Delaware corporation, from EMS Find,
Inc. (“EMS”) pursuant to a stock purchase agreement. Viva Entertainment’s Chief Executive Officer, Johnny Falcones,
was appointed as the Company’s sole director, President and Chief Executive Officer to manage the development and marketing
of Viva Entertainment’s over the top (IPTV/OTT) application for connected TV’s, desktop computers, tablets, and smart
phones.
Pursuant to the stock purchase agreement, the
Company and EMS agreed to transfer control of Viva Entertainment to the Company through the purchase of all outstanding shares
of stock of Viva Entertainment by the Company in exchange for the issuance to EMS of a 10% promissory note in the principal amount
of $100,000, due six months from the Closing (the “EMS Note”), and the issuance of 22,000,000 shares of common stock
to Johnny Falcones. For accounting purposes, the transaction was treated as a reverse merger since the acquired entity now forms
the basis for operations and the transaction resulted in a change in control, with the acquired company electing to become the
successor issuer for reporting purposes. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared to reflect the assets, liabilities
and operations of Viva Entertainment Group, Inc. exclusive of Black River Petroleum since all predecessor operations were discontinued.
As part of the transaction, stock payable and amounts due to former officers were forgiven, with the balances recorded as Contributed
Capital. For equity purposes, additional paid-in capital and retained deficit shown are those of Viva, exclusive of Black River
Petroleum. Viva had no operations prior to the quarter ended April 30, 2016.
In management’s opinion, all adjustments
necessary for a fair statement of the results for the presented periods have been made. All adjustments made were of a normal
recurring nature.
Viva Entertainment Group Inc.
(F/K/A Black River Petroleum Corp.) (the “Company”) develops and markets Viva Entertainment’s over the top (IPTV/OTT)
application for connected TV’s, desktop computers, tablets, and smart phones. The Company is based in Briarwood, New York.
Going Concern
These financial statements have been
prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations
for the next fiscal year. Realization value may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these
financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification
of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. As of April 30,
2018, the Company has a working capital deficiency and has an accumulated deficit of $24,169,697. The continuation
of Viva Entertainment Group as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability
of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. These
factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Revenue Recognition
Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted
ASC 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from the commercial sales
of products, licensing agreements and contracts to perform pilot studies by applying the following steps: (1) identify the contract
with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the
transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is
satisfied. For the comparative periods, revenue has not been adjusted and continues to be reported under ASC 605 — Revenue
Recognition. Under ASC 605, revenue is recognized when the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement
exists; (2) the performance of service has been rendered to a customer or delivery has occurred; (3) the amount of fee to be paid
by a customer is fixed and determinable; and (4) the collectability of the fee is reasonably assured.
There was no impact on
the Company’s financial statements as a result of adopting Topic 606 for the three and six months ended April 30, 2018
and 2017, or the twelve months ended October 31, 2017.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States for interim information Regulation S-K. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management,
all adjustments consisting of a normal and recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2017.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements
in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net revenue
and expenses in the reporting period. We regularly evaluate our estimates and assumptions related to the useful life and recoverability
of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. We base our estimates and assumptions
on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the
results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs
and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by us may differ materially and adversely
from our estimates. To the extent there are material differences between our estimates and the actual results, our future results
of operations will be affected.
Loss Per Common Share
The Company reports net loss per
share in accordance with provisions of the FASB. The provisions require dual presentation of basic and diluted
loss per share. Basic net loss per share excludes the impact of common stock equivalents. Diluted net loss per share utilizes
the average market price per share when applying the treasury stock method in determining common stock equivalents. As of
April 30, 2018 and October 31, 2017, there were no dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Pursuant to ASC No. 820, “Fair
Value Measurements and Disclosures”, the Company is required to estimate the fair value of all financial instruments included
on its balance sheet as of April 30, 2018 and October 31, 2017. The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and derivative
liabilities. The Company considers the carrying value of such amounts in the financial statements to approximate their
fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
The Company adopted ASC No. 820-10 (ASC
820-10), Fair Value Measurements. ASC 820-10 relates to financial assets and financial liabilities. ASC 820-10 defines
fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The provisions of this standard apply to other accounting
pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and are to be applied prospectively with limited exceptions.
ASC 820-10 defines fair value 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. This standard is now the single source in GAAP for the definition of fair value, except for the fair value
of leased property as defined in SFAS 13. ASC 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market
participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s
own assumptions, about market participant assumptions, that are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances
(unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted
quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level
3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820-10 are described below:
|
•
|
Level 1
|
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
|
|
•
|
Level 2
|
Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
|
|
•
|
Level 3
|
Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. These inputs rely on management's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. (The unobservable inputs are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances and July include the Company's own data.)
|
The following presents the Company's
fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of April 30, 2018 and
October 31, 2017:

Derivative Financial Instruments
Fair value accounting requires bifurcation
of embedded derivative instruments such as conversion features in convertible debt or equity instruments, and measurement of their
fair value for accounting purposes. In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing
model. In assessing the convertible debt instruments, management determines if the convertible debt host instrument is conventional
convertible debt and further if there is a beneficial conversion feature requiring measurement. If the instrument is not considered
conventional convertible debt, the Company will continue its evaluation process of these instruments as derivative financial instruments.
Once determined, derivative liabilities are
adjusted to reflect fair value at each reporting period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in
results of operations as an adjustment to fair value of derivatives. In addition, the fair value of freestanding derivative instruments
such as warrants, are also valued using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the Condensed Financial
Statements, the Company considers liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Plan of Operation
As of April 30, 2018 we had a working
capital deficiency of $3,249,159 and accumulated deficit of $24,169,697. We had revenues from subscription in amount of $14,350
and $27,451 during the three and six months ended April 30, 2018, respectively.
Our auditors have issued a going concern
opinion. This means that our auditors believe there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next
twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have not generated any material revenues
or profits.
We have only four officers and directors.
They are responsible for our managerial and organizational structure which will include preparation of disclosure and accounting
controls under the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002. When these controls are implemented, they will be responsible for the administration
of the controls. Should they not have sufficient experience, they may be incapable of creating and implementing the controls which
may cause us to be subject to sanctions and fines by the SEC which ultimately could cause you to lose your investment.
Limited Operating History
There is no historical financial information
about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. The revenues generated to date was small. We cannot guarantee we
will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business
enterprise, including limited capital resources.

the same period in 2017, offset by the payment on debt in amount of $2,000 and $4,620 during the six months ended April 30, 2018
and 2017, respectively. During the six months ended April 30, 2017, the Company issued a total of 14,500,000 shares of restricted common
stock for cash proceeds of $12,000.
We had revenues from subscription
in amount of $14,350 and $27,451 during the three and six months ended April 30, 2018, respectively, and have eight salaried
employees including Johnny Falcones, our officer and director. We currently require very limited resources but intend to hire
employees and consultants in the latter part of 2018 for the Viva Entertainment operations. In due course, should we require
capital for these operations, we will need to raise additional capital. There is no guarantee that we will be able to raise
further capital. At present, we have not made any arrangements to raise additional capital but are diligently working on
this.
If we need additional capital and cannot
raise it we will either have to suspend operations until we do raise the capital or cease operations entirely. Other than as described
in this paragraph, we have no other financing plans.
Future Contractual Obligations
and Commitment
We incur contractual
obligations and financial commitments in the normal course of our operations and financing activities. Contractual obligations
include future cash payments required under existing contracts, such as debt and lease agreements. These obligations may result
from both general financing activities and from commercial arrangements that are directly supported by related operating activities.
As of the date of this prospectus, we
have no future contractual obligations or commitments.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of the date of this prospectus, we
have not entered into any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement with an entity unconsolidated under which it
has:
|
•
|
a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to the unconsolidated entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit;
|
|
•
|
liquidity or market risk support to such entity for such assets;
|
|
•
|
an obligation, including a contingent obligation, under a contract that would be accounted for as a derivative instrument; or
|
|
•
|
an obligation, including a contingent obligation, arising out of a variable interest in an unconsolidated entity that is held by, and material to us, where such entity provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support to or engages in leasing, hedging, or research and development services with us.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09,
“Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting”. The standard
is intended to simplify several areas of accounting for share-based compensation arrangements, including the income tax impact,
classification on the statement of cash flows and forfeitures. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within
those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is permitted. The Company elected to early adopt the new guidance
in the second quarter of fiscal year 2016 which requires us to reflect any adjustments as of January 1, 2016, the beginning of
the annual period that includes the interim period of adoption. The primary impact of adoption was the recognition of additional
stock compensation expense and paid-in capital for all periods in fiscal year 2016. Additional amendments to the recognition of
excess tax benefits, accounting for income taxes and minimum statutory withholding tax requirements had no impact to retained earnings
as of January 1, 2016, where the cumulative effect of these changes is required to be recorded. We have elected to account for
forfeitures as they occur to determine the amount of compensation cost to be recognized in each period.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU
No. 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230).” ASU No. 2016-18 requires that restricted cash be included with
cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the change in cash flow. This guidance is reflected in these financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU
2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which removes the second step of the two-step goodwill impairment test.
Under ASU 2017-04, an entity will apply a one-step quantitative test and record the amount of goodwill impairment as the excess
of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting
unit. ASU 2017-04 does not amend the optional qualitative assessment of goodwill impairment. Additionally, an entity should consider
income tax effects from any tax-deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment
loss, if applicable. ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2019; early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after
January 1, 2017. The Company has not elected early adoption of this standard and is currently in the process of evaluating the
impact of adopting ASU 2017-04 and cannot currently estimate the financial statement impact of adoption.
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No.
2017-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting.” The amendments in
this update provide guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based award require an entity to apply modification
accounting in Topic 718. The guidance will be effective for the Company for its fiscal year 2018, with early adoption permitted.
The Company does not expect this ASU to materially impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Accounting standards that have been
issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected
to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
Subsequent Events
The Company reviewed material events subsequent to April
30, 2018. None were noted.
