These forward-looking statements reflect
our current view about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Unless required by law, we do not
intend to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this Form 10-Q or to conform these statements to

The following discussion should be read
together in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements and related notes thereto and the audited
financial statements and notes to those statements contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2019.
OVERVIEW
theglobe.com, inc. (the “Company,”
“theglobe,” “we” or “us”) was incorporated on May 1, 1995 and commenced operations on
that date. Originally, we were an online community with registered members and users in the United States and abroad. On September 29,
2008, we consummated the sale of the business and substantially all of the assets of our subsidiary, Tralliance Corporation (“Tralliance”),
to Tralliance Registry Management Company, LLC, an entity controlled by Michael S. Egan, our former Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer. As a result of and on the effective date of the sale of our Tralliance business, which was our last remaining operating
business, we became a “shell company,” as that term is defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, with no material
operations or assets. We currently have no material operations or assets.
On December 20, 2017, our former Chief
Executive Officer and majority stockholder, Mr. Egan entered into the Purchase Agreement with Delfin for the purchase by Delfin
of shares owned by Mr. Egan representing approximately 70.9% of our Common Stock. On the Closing Date, the former officers
and directors, including Mr. Egan, resigned from their respective positions with the Company. Mr. Nichols was appointed
the sole member of our Board and our sole executive officer. Effective June 29, 2018, our Board appointed Mr. Frederick
Jones as President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Director of the Company, and Mr. Nichols resigned
from his positions of President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Director, and any other directorships, offices
or other positions with the Company.
As a shell company, our operating expenses
have consisted primarily of, and we expect them to continue to consist primarily of, customary public company expenses, including
personnel, accounting, financial reporting, legal, audit and other related public company costs.
As of June 30, 2020, as reflected in our accompanying
balance sheet, our current liabilities exceed our total assets.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS;
GOING CONCERN
We received a report from our independent
registered public accountants, relating to our December 31, 2019 audited financial statements, containing an explanatory paragraph
regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. As a shell company, our management believes that we will not be able to generate
operating cash flows sufficient to fund our operations and pay our existing current liabilities. Based upon our current limited
cash resources and without the infusion of additional capital and/or the continued forbearance of our creditors, our management
does not believe we can operate as a going concern beyond the next twelve months. See “Future and Critical Need for Capital”
section of this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for further
details.
Our financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America on a going concern basis, which contemplates
the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, our condensed financial
statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and classification of liabilities that might
be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2020 COMPARED
TO THE
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2019
NET REVENUE. Commensurate with the sale
of our Tralliance business on September 29, 2008, we became a shell company, and we have not had any material operations since
then. As a result, net revenue for both the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $0.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and
administrative expenses include only customary public company expenses, including accounting, legal, audit, insurance and other
related public company costs. General and administrative expenses totaled approximately $31,000 in the second quarter of 2020 as
compared to approximately $42,000 for the same quarter of the prior year. This decrease was primarily due to decreased legal expenses
due to securities filings in 2019.
RELATED PARTY INTEREST EXPENSE. Related
party interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020 totaled $11,051 compared to $7,687 for the three months ended
June 30, 2019. This increase consisted of interest due and payable to Delfin for additional loan amounts.
NET LOSS. Net loss for the three months
ended June 30, 2020 was approximately $42,000 as compared to a net loss of approximately $49,000 for the three months ended
June 30, 2019. This decrease was primarily due to decreased legal expenses, partially offset by an increase in interest expenses.
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2020 COMPARED
TO THE
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2019
NET REVENUE. Commensurate with the sale
of our Tralliance business on September 29, 2008, we became a shell company, and we have not had any material operations since
then. As a result, net revenue for both the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $0.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and
administrative expenses include only customary public company expenses, including accounting, legal, audit, insurance and other
related public company costs. General and administrative expenses totaled approximately $67,000 for the first six months of 2020
as compared to approximately $97,000 for the same period of the prior year. This decrease was primarily due to decreased legal
expenses.
RELATED PARTY INTEREST EXPENSE. Related
party interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 totaled $22,103 compared to $14,428 for the six months ended
June 30, 2019. This increase consisted of interest due and payable to Delfin as the loan amount has increased.
NET LOSS. Net loss for the six months ended
June 30, 2020 was approximately $89,000 as compared to a net loss of approximately $112,000 for the six months ended June 30,
2019. This decrease was primarily due to decreased legal expenses.
LIQUIDITY AND
CAPITAL RESOURCES
CASH FLOW ITEMS
As of June 30, 2020, we had $9,961
in cash as compared to $86,961 as of December 31, 2019. Net cash flows used in operating activities totaled approximately
$77,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to net cash flows used in operating activities of approximately $101,000
for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
Net cash flows provided by financing activities
totaled approximately $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to approximately $165,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 2019. Delfin funds theglobe when cash is needed, hence the large increases/decreases in cash flow are attributed
to receiving funding, then using most of the funds until being funded again.
FUTURE AND CRITICAL NEED FOR CAPITAL
The accompanying financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. on a going concern basis, which contemplates
the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, the financial statements
do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary
should we be unable to continue as a going concern. However, for the reasons described below, our management does not believe that
cash on hand and cash flow generated internally by us will be adequate to fund our limited overhead and other cash requirements
beyond the next twelve months. These reasons raise significant doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Additionally,
the COVID 19 pandemic could have an adverse effect on our ability to continue operating. Please see Item 1A. RISK FACTORS.
In March 2018, the Company executed
a Promissory Note with Delfin, which was amended and restated in May 2018 to $150,000, in November 2018 to $350,000,
in June 2019 to $465,000 and then again in November 2019 to increase the principal amount to up to $554,100 to pay certain
accrued expenses, accounts payable and to allow the Company to have working capital. Interest accrues on the unpaid principal balance
at a rate of 8% per annum, calculated on a 365/66 day year, as applicable. The Promissory Note is due upon demand. It may be prepaid
in whole or in any part at any time prior to demand. Management anticipates continued funding from Delfin over the next twelve
months as it determines the direction of the Company and anticipates receiving additional capital at the end of August 2020.
At June 30, 2020, we had a net working
capital deficit of approximately $633,000. This deficit included accrued expenses of approximately $21,000, accounts payable of
approximately $2,000 and approximately $619,000 in principal and accrued interest owed under the Promissory Note with Delfin, the
Company’s majority stockholder.
EFFECTS OF INFLATION
Management believes that inflation has not had a significant
effect on our results of operations during 2020 and 2019.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF CRITICAL
ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The preparation of our financial statements
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Our estimates, judgments and
assumptions are continually evaluated based on available information and experience. Because of the use of estimates inherent in
the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Certain of our accounting policies require
higher degrees of judgment than others in their application. Primarily, these include valuation of accounts payable and accrued
expenses.
IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING
STANDARDS
Management has determined that all recently
issued accounting pronouncements will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements or do not apply to
the Company’s operations.
