ITEM 2.01 Completion of Acquisition Or Disposition of Assets
Merger with Davi Skin, Inc. (Private Company)
On June 21, 2004, we completed and closed a Plan of Merger and Reorganization Agreement ("Merger") with Davi Skin, Inc., an unrelated, privately-held Nevada corporation (the "Private Company"). The Merger provided for our wholly owned subsidiary to merge into and with the Private Company, thereby making the Private Company our wholly owned subsidiary. As consideration for the acquisition of all the shares of the Private Company, we issued to the shareholders of the Private Company, on a one for one basis, 9,745,634 shares of our common stock.
The Agreement further provided that our former officers and directors, Jan Wallace and Grace Sim, would resign and that the board of the Private Company, consisting of Messrs. Medley, Mondavi and Levine would become our new board. We filed a Schedule 14F reflecting the change in control on July 20, 2004 and the new board was installed on or about August 1, 2004. Ms. Wallace and Ms. Sim resigned as officers of the company upon the closing of the merger on June 21, 2004, and the officers of the Private Company were installed on that date.
The transaction was accounted for by our auditors as a quasi-reorganization or reverse merger whereby the Private Company was considered as the accounting acquirer and therefore its accounting history was carried forward as our history.
The Private Company was founded by Carlo Mondavi in March of 2003 with his vision of creating an all-natural grape-based luxury skin care line. Planting techniques at select vineyards that we plan to utilize exclusively, produce deeper vines with a lower yield of grapes per vine. After processing, these grapes yield higher concentrations of minerals, vitamins, and nutrients than grapes from other vineyards. The minerals, vitamins and nutrients are found in a by-product of the wine making process called the pomace. Additionally, the uniquely long maceration process to which these grapes are subjected yield polyphenols in relatively high quantity. Polyphenols are the free radical scavengers that, among other things, help to protect collagen and elastin fibers and prevent the destruction of hyaluronic acid in the skin. Management believes that the use of this pomace will allow for the creation of skin cr§mes that can help fight the natural aging process of the skin.
Consequently, as a result of the merger, our primary business is now the development, manufacture, distribution and sale of skin care products.
Plan of Operations
Our current plan of operations is to aggressively pursue the development, manufacture, distribution and sale of our new planned skin care line of products. We are currently in the process of developing this skin cr§me product line. Once these products are complete, we plan to start manufacturing and marketing them to consumers through high-end retailers and distributors.
1. Development
We are currently in the development process, which we see as involving two basic phases: (1) creating the products with a formulator; and (2) testing the formulations as they are developed.
We currently have a contract with a formulator to create a series of skin cr§me products, including a:
1. Cleanser;
2. Facial Scrub;
3. Eye Cream;
4. Revitalizing Moisturizer;
5. Daily Moisturizer with an SPF rating for sun protection;
6. Intensive treatment serum; and
7. Purifying Clay Mask
We have developed these formulations with a proprietary bio complex blend of 10 different raw materials, which we intend to be consistent across all of the products we develop. The key items will be the materials containing the anti-oxidant properties that are believed to help fight free radical damage caused by sunlight, stress and other environmental factors. Other key ingredients used in these formulas have been selected for their efficacy in helping to correct existing damage and thereby also supporting our anti-aging goals.
We have provided the formulator with our product profile for each of these products which involve a desired list of ingredients along with product features and benefits. The formulator has returned several samples based on these product proportions to us for review and we are currently in the process of evaluating and making adjustments to the formulations. Our goal is to create an end product that provides consumers with a pleasurable sensory experience, most particularly smell and touch, along with the anti-aging cosmetic results we plan to promote.
We consider these formulations as they are being developed and tested to be proprietary, and thus have been and will remain on guard to protect the details of our developing product mix.
We plan to be through the formulation portion of the development process during the month of October so that we can commence testing of the products before manufacturing. Our testing will be conducted by the company we hire to manufacture our products. We intend to test all of the products for stability and compliance with the Cosmetic Toiletry Fragrance Association ("CFTA") standards, a self-regulatory organization for the cosmetic industry. This will include various types of tests, including product safety, preservative efficacy, package stability, and assay testing for all
products, including over the counter ingredients. Testing stability involves a three month period where analysts are looking for changes in viscosity (thickness), appearance and odor at various temperatures to help determine shelf life, expiry dates, and other things.
As the products are expected to be sold over the counter, we do not anticipate needing or obtaining any Federal Food and Drug Administration approvals and we do not plan on doing any clinical testing of any kind. The products containing SPF or any other over the counter ingredients, however, will need to meet FDA testing regulations and the global standards for sales in countries other than the United States.
2. Manufacture
We are in the process of choosing a manufacturer for our product line, and expect to complete our review and enter into a manufacturing agreement within the next month. Once engaged, the manufacture will be expected to test our initial product formulations during a four to six week period. During this testing, we expect to be making further adjustments to our formulations, requiring that new batches of each product be produced following each change.
Once the formula is fixed for each product, the manufacturer will create a commercial batch of each product, bottle and package the products for us. We are also in the process of choosing all the peripheral items involved in the manufacturing and marketing process, including:
1. the shape and size of the product containers;
2. the types of caps;
3. the packaging;
4. the logo and label designs; and
5. unit cartons.
3. Marketing and Distribution
Currently, we have no distribution agreements; however, we have contacted a number of distributors and retailers and are exploring several different methods of marketing the products once manufactured. We intend to seek an exclusive arrangement, at least for a time period, with high-end retailers in the US for the initial sale of our products. Management believes this will help establish us in the marketplace as a quality provider of skin cr§me products.
We anticipate that we will have completed our initial manufacturing of the products during the second quarter of 2005, with the ultimate goal of shipping our first product to stores by the end of June 2005.
