Overview
ISA Internationale Inc. was until June 29, 2012, a financial services company primarily engaged in the business of collecting distressed debt receivables for our own portfolios and also as a third party agency for our clients. Collection activities were conducted by our subsidiary ISA Acceptance Corporation (ISAC), a licensed and bonded collection agency in Minnesota and eight other states. The Company also did use third party agencies and attorneys to collect our portfolios.
On June 29, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the discontinuance of the operations of a wholly owned subsidiary that was in the debt collection business and sold the subsidiary, ISA Acceptance Corporation, to a related party for a note receivable of $22,782 and future potential proceeds on the sale or disposition of a portion of the proceeds of 3,000,000 common stock shares of ISA Internationale, Inc., owned by the subsidiary that were received by the purchaser as consideration of total transaction of the Stock Purchase Agreement. See note 5 for complete explanation of the Stock Purchase Agreement transaction.
The Company and its Board of Directors has decided to become a Business Development Corporation and has accordingly filed Form N54-A with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 29, 2012. The Company started operating as a Business Development Corporation (“BDC”) on October 1, 2012 and commenced accounting methodologies and reporting standards required for BDC’s on that date. See note 7 of the financial statements for an explanation of the Company’s future plans and direction following a revised and new business plan of operations.
1.)The Company commenced the development of new management consulting services to assist American client companies in complying with the reporting requirements to the government and in communicating with shareholders, customers and the public and the accessing of needed growth capital. The Company will be receiving shares from its various new clients for financial consulting work completed in the succeeding quarters going forward from October 1, 2013.
2.) In June 2012, the Company entered into its first agreement with NewsBeat Social, Inc, an Oregon corporation, a Company organized to provide social news content via the internet, such as Facebook, Inc. A commitment to purchase 2,000,000 shares of common stock of NewsBeat, Inc. was consummated on June 29, 2012. On September 28, 2012, the Company did make the requested investment and accordingly received the purchased shares on February. A copy of that agreement was attached to the Form 10-Q filing as an exhibit at June 30, 2012.
3.) During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, the Company signed three additional contracts to provide consulting services generating Consulting Fee income of $227,500. The Company does anticipate the generation of additional consulting services contracts on behalf of its existing clients as well as new clients pending contracts under negotiation.
Corporate History, Organization and Recapitalization
ISAI was incorporated in Delaware in 1989 under a former name, and was inactive operationally for some time prior to its May 1998 recapitalization through an acquisition of Shoptropolis, which was a wholly owned subsidiary of ISAI. ISAI acquired its home shopping network business through such purchases, after which the former shareholders of this subsidiary acquired 89% of the outstanding common stock of ISAI through a stock exchange. ISAI issued 11,772,600 shares of its common stock in exchange for all of the outstanding common stock of ShoptropolisTV.com, Inc. This transaction was effected as a reverse merger for financial statement and operational purposes, and accordingly, ISAI regards its inception as being the incorporation of ShoptropolisTV.com, Inc. on October 7, 1997.
5
ISAI's strategy from December 2000 to 2005 was the restructuring of its financial affairs and forming an operating company. On August 18, 2004, ISAI created a subsidiary corporation that later changed its name to ISA Financial Services, Inc. (ISAF). ISAF is a holding parent company to ISA Acceptance Corporation (ISAC) formed on July 20, 2005 to serve as our operating company subsidiary.
In May 2005, the Company consummated its first purchase of performing, sub-performing and non-performing consumer receivables. These portfolios generally consist of one or more of the following types of consumer receivables:
- charged-off receivables -- accounts that have been written-off by the
originators and may have been previously serviced by collection
agencies;
- sub-performing receivables -- accounts where the debtor is currently
making partial or irregular monthly payments, but the accounts may have
been written-off by the originators; and are currently being serviced by
collection agencies;
- performing receivables - accounts where the debtor is making regular
payments or pays upon normal and customary procedures to collection
agencies.
The Company outsourced some of its collections to one or more carefully selected collection agencies and attorneys and actively monitored collection and servicing strategies accordingly. Due to various problems and characteristics of the distressed debt portfolios purchased by the Company, no conclusive statistics of collection by the Company can be realistically discerned to facilitate the development of reliable collection assumptions as to the amount of income that can ultimately result from these debt portfolios. Hence the Company did not utilize the "interest method" in accounting for its investment in finance receivables under FASB ASC 310. Accordingly, the Company recognized income from the collection of its portfolios using the "cost recovery" method. Profit is recognized only after it has collected the full purchase price less impairment write-downs and sales of portfolios, for the portfolios purchased during the period from May 18, 2005 to June 30, 2012.
As a result of the change in the business plan and direction of the Company, the Company has ceased all activities in the debt collection business, effective as of June 30, 2012. There no new revenues or expenses are being incurred for debt collection activities. The former subsidiary, International Acceptance Corporation, has been sold to a related party and its results are no longer consolidated into ISAT. The sale was reported in the 10-Q report at June 30, 2012 and the 10-K report as of September 30, 2012.

Industry Overview and Trends
7
The Company is now in the Management Consulting industry, providing its experience as a public company to assist client companies and investments to become public companies. It has changed its organizational status to a Business Development Company (“BDC”).
8
New Strategy
The Company's current business strategy is to develop new business relationships that can lead to consulting contracts to provide services assisting American client companies in complying with the reporting requirements to the government and in communicating with shareholders, customers and the public and the accessing of needed growth capital.
Most BDC’s that comply with the 1940 Investment Act are similar in their business and investment operations due to the standard compliance requirements. However, there are significant differences in individual BDC philosophies and investment strategies. We are still developing our own strategic best practices to assist our clients in the type of filings and client investments best suited for them.
We will become an internally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management Investment Company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the“1940 Act”). We generally have to invest at least 70% of our total assets in“qualifying assets,” including securities of American companies, cash, cash equivalents, U.S.A. government securities and high-quality debt investments.
We plan to elect to be treated for tax purposes as a regulated investment company, or a RIC, under Subchapter M of the Code. However, there is no guarantee that we will be successful in obtaining or maintaining our RIC status. As a new BDC operation, we have not yet generated a taxable profit. As of this 10-K filing, we have not yet made the election to be treated for tax purposes as a regulated investment company, or a RIC, under Subchapter M of the Code.
Competition in the industry
The Business Development Corporation model of activity includes income generation and capital appreciation or any combination of the two. Income generation is sought from facilitating short term secured loans to our portfolio companies and other non-portfolio companies, through affiliated and non-affiliated lending sources. Operating capital loans may be used by our investment portfolio companies for invoices, orders and inventory and may follow the factoring strategy operated for our BDC by affiliated and non-affiliated experienced“factors,” with existing software and management systems in place. Our BDC investors may participate in the cash return yield generated by these activities.
Long term secured loans to refinance and acquire additional plant, equipment and/or other earnings and assets could provide cash flow income to our investors. This lending income may pass through interest and fees paid for secured loans for such purposes. Leasing revenues and fees paid from ”borrowers” as renters rather than own assets, including sale lease backs, may also provide cash income paid to our investors.
Capital appreciation is sought from our equity participation and profit realization from a sale of some or all of our equity in a portfolio company’s investment. We may invest cash and/or fees earned and received for providing managerial support consulting services to a client. The percentage amount of our BDC ownership may be passive at less than 10% without our Board of Director and control positions in the portfolio company. This may allow us more unrestricted sale of our investment at our sole discretion to attempt to maximize the return of this investment. Or we may own a larger percentage of the portfolio company including options to increase the size of our ownership and control stake.
The main strategy for value creation of portfolio companies is current SEC registration for transparency with financial reporting and liquidity with subsequent SEC registration for public stock trading. A price to earnings multiple“arbitrage” between public stock and private stock may increase our portfolio company holding value. This concept is based on the investment market value accretion for going from private to public status. Factors such as financial and operating transparency, quality of liquidity, management and asset, and earnings acquisition are improved when a company is publically traded versus privately owned and operated.
Also, under the BDC Act, we can help“fix”business net income and other financial problems for existing“thinly traded” public stock company already reporting to the SEC. Additional earnings and the factors such as improved financial and operating transparency, quality of liquidity, management and asset and further earnings acquisition can increase the value of a thinly traded portfolio company and our investment.
Our shareholders can participate in our portfolio income and capital appreciation with our fund that allows them to share in our potential share value increase from our investment. We believe the shares of a company we invest in should trade at a higher price when that price is based on earnings increases and/or an increased price earning multiple, of a“successful” public SEC reporting company, than on a non-reporting privately held company. Any increase share value of our portfolio investments should increase the Net Asset Value (“NAV”) of our BDC and subsequent market price of our BDC traded shares listed under the Nasdaq OTCBB symbol:“ISAT.”
However, the success of these strategies and models by us cannot be guaranteed.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS
The purchase of shares of capital stock of the Company involves many risks. A prospective investor should carefully consider the following factors before making a decision to purchase any such shares:
The Company Has Historically Lost Money and Losses May Continue in the Future:
The Company has historically lost money. For the year ended September 30, 2013 the Company had an operating loss of $190,990 including our realized and unrealized gain (loss) from investments. Accordingly, we may experience significant liquidity and cash flow problems if we are not able to raise additional capital as needed on acceptable terms. No assurances can be given we will be successful in reaching or maintaining profitable operations and future losses are likely to occur.
The Company has incurred losses since its inception and, as a result, has an accumulated deficit of $10,268,984 at September 30, 2013. The net investment loss was $118,930 for the twelve month period ended September 30, 2013 compared to a net investment loss of $0 for the same period last year. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern which depends upon obtaining sufficient financing to maintain adequate liquidity until such time as operations produce positive cash flow. However, there can be no assurance these actions will be successful.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes continuity of operations and realization of assets and liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result if the Company was forced to discontinue its operations.
The Company's cash expenses are very large relative to its cash flow which requires the Company continually to sell shares from its investments. This could result in substantial dilution to our shareholders equity or our ability to continue in operations should additional capital not be raised:
For the year ended September 30, 2013 the Company had no investment income and had operating expenses of $321,168. Consequently, the Company was required to issue shares of the Company's inventory of investment common stock to raise the funds necessary to pay ongoing expenses. Net proceeds from the issuance of common stock in 2013 amounted to $66,500. The Company also received $66,178 in proceeds from note payable to related party investors. This practice is likely to continue for the foreseeable future and could lead to continuing dilution in net asset value for the Company's stockholders. Moreover, there is no assurance the Company will be able to find investors willing to purchase Company shares at a price and on terms acceptable to the Company, in which case, the Company could further deplete its cash resources.
Regulations governing operations of a business development company will affect the Company's ability to raise, and the way in which the Company raises additional capital. This could result in the Company not being able to raise additional capital and accordingly cease operations:
Under the provisions of the 1940 Act, the Company is permitted, as a business development company, to issue senior securities only in amounts such that asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, equals at least 200% after each issuance of senior securities. If the value of portfolio assets declines, the Company may be unable to satisfy this test. If that happens, the Company may be required to sell a portion of its investments and, depending on the nature of the Company's leverage, repay a portion of its indebtedness at a time when such sales may be disadvantageous and result in unfavorable prices. Applicable law requires that business development companies may invest 70% of its assets only in privately held U.S. companies, small, publicly traded U.S. companies, certain high-quality debt, and cash. The Company is not generally able to issue and sell common stock at a price below net asset value per share. The Company may, however, sell common stock, or warrants, options or rights to acquire common stock, at prices below the current net asset value of the common stock if the Board of Directors determines that such sale is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders approve such sale. In any such case, the price at which the Company's securities are to be issued and sold may not be less than a price which, in the determination of the Board of Directors, closely approximates the market value of such securities (less any distributing commission or discount)
The success of the Company will depend in part on its size, and in part on management's ability to make successful investments:
If the Company is unable to select profitable investments, the Company will not achieve its objectives. Moreover, if the size of the Company remains small, operating expenses will be higher as a percentage of invested capital than would otherwise be the case, which increases the risk of loss (and reduces the chance for gain) for investors.
The Company's investment activities are inherently risky:
The Company's investment activities involve a significant degree of risk. The performance of any investment is subject to numerous factors which are neither within the control of nor predictable by the Company. Such factors include a wide range of economic, political, competitive and other conditions which may affect investments in general or specific industries or companies.
The Company's equity investments may lose all or part of their value, causing the Company to lose all or part of its investment in those companies:
The equity interests in which the Company invests may not appreciate in value and may decline in value. Accordingly, the Company may not be able to realize gains from its investments and any gains realized on the disposition of any equity interests may not be sufficient to offset any losses experienced. Moreover, the Company's primary objective is to invest in early stage companies, the products or services of which will frequently not have demonstrated market acceptance. Many portfolio companies lack depth of management and have limited financial resources. All of these factors make investments in the Company's portfolio companies particularly risky.
Our common stock is traded on the "Over-the-Counter Pink Sheet" market, which may make it more difficult for investors to resell their shares due to suitability requirements:
Our common stock is currently traded on the Over the Counter Pink Sheets under the symbol (ISAT) where we expect it to remain in the foreseeable future. Broker-dealers often decline to trade in OTC Pink Sheet stocks given the markets for such securities are often limited, the stocks are more volatile, and the risk to investors is greater. These factors may reduce the potential market for our common stock by reducing the number of potential investors. This may make it more difficult for investors in our common stock to sell shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of their shares. This could cause our stock price to decline.
We could fail to retain or attract key personnel who are required in order for us to fully carry out our business plan:
The Company's operations and ability to implement its business plan are dependent upon the efforts of its key personnel, the loss of the services of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company will likely be required to hire additional personnel to implement its business plan. Qualified employees and consultants are in great demand and are likely to remain a limited resource for the foreseeable future. Competition for skilled, creative and technical talent is intense. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in attracting and retaining such personnel. Any failure by the Company to retain the services of existing employees and consultants or to hire new employees when necessary could have a material adverse effect upon the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. Our future success depends in significant part on the continued services of Bernard L. Brodkorb, our Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and CFO. We have no employment agreement with or company life insurance on Mr. Brodkorb.
The Company operates in a highly competitive market:
The Company faces competition from a number of sources, many of which have longer operating histories, and significantly greater financial, management, marketing and other resources than the Company. The Company's ability to generate new portfolio clients depends to a significant degree on its reputation among potential clients and partners, and its ability to reach acceptable investment terms with potential clients relative to competitive alternatives. In the event that the reputation of the Company is adversely impacted, or that potential portfolio clients perceive competitive alternatives to be superior, the business, financial condition and operating results of the Company could be adversely affected.
Our officers and directors have the ability to exercise significant influence over matters submitted for stockholder approval and their interests may differ from other stockholders:
Our executive officers and directors have the ability to appoint a majority to the Board of Directors. Accordingly, our directors and executive officers, whether acting alone or together, may have significant influence in determining the outcome of any corporate transaction or other matter submitted to our Board for approval, including issuing common and preferred stock, appointing officers, which could have a material impact on mergers, acquisitions, consolidations and the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, and the power to prevent or cause a change in control. The interests of these board members may differ from the interests of the other stockholders.
Our share ownership is concentrated:
The Company's officers, directors and principal stockholders, together with their affiliates, beneficially own approximately 70% of the Company's voting shares. As a result, these stockholders, if they act together, will exert significant influence over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election and removal of directors, any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the assets, as well as any charter amendment and other matters requiring stockholder approval. In addition, these stockholders may dictate the day to day management of the business. This concentration of ownership may delay or prevent a change in control and may have a negative impact on the market price of the Company's common stock by discouraging third party investors. In addition, the interests of these stockholders may not always coincide with the interests of the Company's other stockholders.
We may change our investment policies without further shareholder approval:
Although we are limited by the Investment Company Act of 1940 with respect to the percentage of our assets that must be invested in qualified investment companies, we are not limited with respect to the minimum standard that any investment company must meet, neither are we limited to the industries in which those investment companies must operate. We may make investments without shareholder approval and such investments may deviate significantly from our historic operations. Any change in our investment policy or selection of investments could adversely affect our stock price, liquidity, and the ability of our shareholders to sell their stock.
The Company's common stock may be subject to the penny stock rules which might make it harder for stockholders to sell:
As a result of our stock price, our shares are subject to the penny stock rules. Because a "penny stock" is, generally speaking, one selling for less than $5.00 per share, the Company's common stock may be subject to the foregoing rules. The application of the penny stock rules may affect stockholders' ability to sell their shares because some broker-dealers may not be willing to make a market in the Company's common stock because of the burdens imposed upon them by the penny stock rules which include but are not limited to:
Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and SEC Rules 15g-1 through 15g-6, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell Company securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors.
Rule 15g-2 declares unlawful any broker-dealer transactions in penny stocks unless the broker-dealer has first provided to the customer a standardized disclosure document.
Rule 15g-3 provides that it is unlawful for a broker-dealer to engage in a penny stock transaction unless the broker-dealer first discloses and subsequently confirms to the customer the current quotation prices or similar market information concerning the penny stock in question.
Rule 15g-4 prohibits broker-dealers from completing penny stock transactions for a customer unless the broker-dealer first discloses to the customer the amount of compensation or other remuneration received as a result of the penny stock transaction.
Rule 15g-5 requires that a broker-dealer executing a penny stock transaction, other than one exempt under Rule 15g-1, disclose to its customer, at the time of or prior to the transaction, information about the sales persons compensation.
Potential shareholders of the Company should also be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include (i) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (ii) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (iii) "boiler room" practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (iv) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (v) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses.
Limited regulatory oversight may require potential investors to fend for themselves:
The Company has elected to be treated as a business development company under the 1940 Act which makes the Company exempt from some provisions of that statute. The Company is not registered as a broker-dealer or investment advisor because the nature of its proposed activities does not require it to do so; moreover it is not registered as a commodity pool operator under the Commodity Exchange Act, based on its intention not to trade commodities or financial futures. However, the Company is a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As a result of this limited regulatory oversight, the Company is not subject to certain operating limitations, capital requirements, or reporting obligations that might otherwise apply and investors may be left to fend for themselves.
The Company's concentration of portfolio company securities:
The Company will attempt to hold the securities of several different portfolio companies. However, a significant amount of the Company's holdings could be concentrated in the securities of only a few companies. This risk is particularly acute during this time period of early Company's operations, which could result in significant concentration with respect to a particular issuer or industry. The concentration of the Company's portfolio in any one issuer or industry would subject the Company to a greater degree of risk with respect to the failure of one or a few issuers or with respect to economic downturns in such industry than would be the case with a more diversified portfolio. At September 30, 2013, 100% of the Company's investment asset value resulted from a single portfolio holding.
The unlikelihood of cash distributions:
Although the Company has the corporate power to make cash distributions, such distributions are not among the Company's objectives. Consequently, management does not expect to make any cash distributions in the immediate future.
Because many of the Company's portfolio securities will be recorded at values as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, the prices at which the Company is able to dispose of these holdings may differ from their respective recorded values:
The Company values its portfolio securities at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors and market prices to the extent necessary to reflect significant events affecting the value of such securities. The Board of Directors may retain an independent valuation firm to aid it on a selective basis in making fair value determinations. The types of factors that may be considered in fair value pricing of an investment include the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparison of the portfolio company to (other) publicly traded companies, discounted cash flow of the portfolio company, and other relevant factors.
Because such valuations are inherently uncertain, they may fluctuate during short periods of time, and may be based on estimates. Determinations of fair value may differ materially from the values that would have been used if a ready market for these securities existed. As a result, the Company may not be able to dispose of its holdings at a price equal to or greater than the determined fair value. Net asset value could be adversely affected if the determination regarding the fair value of Company investments is materially higher than the values ultimately realized upon the disposal of such securities.
The lack of liquidity in the Company's portfolio securities would probably prevent the Company from disposing of them at opportune times and prices, which may cause a loss and/or reduce again:
The Company will frequently hold securities in privately held companies. Some of these securities will be subject to legal and other restrictions on resale or will otherwise be less liquid than publicly traded securities. The illiquidity of such investments may make it difficult to sell such investments at advantageous times and prices or in a timely manner. In addition, if the Company is required to liquidate all or a portion of its portfolio quickly, it may realize significantly less than the values recorded for such investments. The Company may also face other restrictions on its ability to liquidate an investment in a portfolio company to the extent that the Company has material non-public information regarding such portfolio company. If the Company is unable to sell its assets at opportune times, it might suffer a loss and/or reduce a gain. Restrictions on resale and limited liquidity are both factors the Board will consider in determining fair value of portfolio securities. Moreover, even holdings in publicly-traded securities are likely to be relatively illiquid because the market for companies of the type in which the Company invests tend to be thin and usually cannot accommodate large volume trades.
Holding securities of privately held companies may be riskier than holding securities of publicly traded companies due to the lack of available public information:
The Company may hold securities in privately-held companies subject to higher risk than holdings in publicly traded companies. Generally, little public information exists about privately held companies, and the Company will be required to rely on the ability of management to obtain adequate information to evaluate the potential risks and returns involved in investing in these companies. If the Company is unable to uncover all material information about these companies, it may not make a fully informed investment decision, and it may lose some or all of the money it invests in these companies. These factors could subject the Company to greater risk than holding securities in publicly traded companies and negatively affect investment returns.
The market values of publicly traded portfolio companies are likely to be extremely volatile:
Our clients tend to be early stage biotech companies. As a result, their operations and futures are highly dependent on their ability to develop products and successfully bring them to the marketplace. Unlike more seasoned companies with historical financial projections that can be used to evaluate performance, our clients typically do not possess such historical figures. Accordingly, the publically traded shares of our portfolio companies will generally be thinly traded and may be subject to volatile swings in value.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, the Company raised $17,790 from demand notes payable from a related investor compared to $83,949 from demand notes payable from a related investor for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012. The demand loans bear interest at the rate of 12% per annum and are collateralized by all the assets of the Company. These secured demand notes accrued interest in the amount of $8,392 during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, other related party demand notes, the interest accrued, and stock dividends in the amount of $94,064 were redeemed by the Company by issuing 292,000 shares in 12% Cumulative and Convertible Series A Preferred Stock, par value $.0001, valued at $1.00 per share to the financing company.
The Company also received from the related party investors, capital contributions in the amount of $98,758 from the period from October 1, 2011 to March 31, 2012. There were no subsequent capital contributions from the period from April 1, 2012 to September 30, 2012. Further, there were no additional preferred shares issued by the Company during the year ended September 30, 2012.
As of September 30, 2012, the Company had current assets of $5,232 consisting of $5,232 in cash only. At the same time, the Company had $350,803 in current liabilities consisting of $165,633 in accounts payable, $97,480 in notes payable, related party, current portion, $3,741 in other notes payable current portion, and $83,949 in convertible notes payable – related party. The Company's current capital resources are not sufficient to support its development and operations. New capital and loans will be necessary to support the ongoing operation of the Company's general and administrative expenses and interest expenses currently being incurred. The Company cannot continue its existence without full and complete reorganization effort of all of its financial affairs and obligations. The Company is evaluating possible new sources of development operation financing in order to adequately continue its projected business development company operations, as may be needed. There can be no guarantee as to the Company’s ability to seek or obtain acceptable sources of the needed cost of capital and/or equity financing to fulfill its goal of its new business plan of operations.
26
The Company is seeking additional sources of debt or equity financing other than additional convertible notes payable issued by a related party. Until new financing needs are solidified, the Company cannot provide assurances as to its future viability or its ability to prevent the possibility of filing a bankruptcy petition, either voluntary or involuntary, by any creditor of the Company. As a result of the Company's history of operating losses and its need for significant additional capital, the reports of the Company's Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on the Company's financial statements for the twelve months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 include explanatory notes raising substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Income Tax Benefit
The Company has an income tax benefit from net operating losses, which is available to offset any future operating profits. None of this benefit has been realized in the accompanying financial statements as of September 30, 2013 or 2012. Federal tax laws impose significant restrictions on the utilization of net operating loss carry-forwards in the event of a change in ownership of the Company which constitutes an "ownership change", as defined by the Internal Revenue Code, Section 382. The Company's net operating loss carry-forward will be subject to the above limitations.
Accounts Payable and Notes Payable
The Company’s accounts payable for trade and payroll tax liabilities decreased by $351 for the year ended September 30, 2013 as compared to the prior fiscal year.
Long-Term Notes Payable related to the auto loan decreased by $9,035 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013. The Company's bank credit lines payable were paid in full. Notes payable-related party whose proceeds were previously used to purchase finance debt portfolios in 2010 and 2011, decreased by $97,480 due to the ceasing of the debt collection business. Other Notes Payable to Related Parties for ISAT increased by $48,949.

Going Concern Consideration
The Company and its financial partner are no longer attempting to reach agreements to convert the remaining $200,000 in defaulted debenture notes and $192,801 in related accrued interest as of September 30, 2010 to common shares. These debentures and related accrued interest were classified as current liabilities and are offset by a corresponding receivable under the indemnification agreement between Doubletree Liquidation Corporation (DLC) and the company whereby DLC agreed to assume these and other certain liabilities of ISAI. The company's position is it is no longer directly liable for these notes except as a guarantor having sold the debt instruments to DLC through the indemnification agreement.
During the year ended September 30, 2012, the indemnification was fully expired and the Company recorded a related “income from debt extinguishment” as an extraordinary item. These specific amounts relate to a previously extended promissory note of $50,000 included in the aforementioned $200,000 in defaulted convertible notes and related interest of $77,116 included in the $192,801 of defaulted interest payments also referred to in the prior paragraph.
Our registered independent auditors have issued an opinion on our financial statements which includes a statement describing our going concern status.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have no outstanding off-balance sheet guarantees or arrangements.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of the financial statements is in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, such as the fair value of investments and estimated obligations related to contractual commitments, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Item 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our business activities contain high elements of risk. The Company considers a principal type of market risk to be a valuation risk. All assets are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Board of Directors (which is based, in part, on quoted market prices of similar investments).
Market prices of common equity securities in general, are subject to fluctuations which could cause the amount to be realized upon sale to differ significantly from the current reported value. The fluctuations may result from perceived changes in the underlying economic characteristics of the Company's portfolio companies, the relative prices of alternative investments, general market conditions and supply and demand imbalances for a particular security.
Neither the Company's investments nor an investment in the Company is intended to constitute a balanced investment program. The Company will be subject to exposure in the public-market pricing and the risks inherent therein. For a further discussion of the risk associated with the Company, please refer to the section of this annual report entitled "Risk Factors".

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
of ISA Internationale, Inc.
St. Paul, Minnesota
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of ISA Internationale, Inc. as of September 30, 2013 and 2012, and the related statements of changes in net liabilities, operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended September 30, 2013. ISA Internationale management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, 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. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ISA Internationale, Inc. as of September 30, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended September 30, 2013 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that ISA Internationale will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has negative working capital at September 30, 2013, has incurred recurring losses and recurring negative cash flows from operating activities, and has a substantial accumulated deficit. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters also are described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to that matter.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
TWELVE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2013 and 2012
The accompanying audited financial statements of ISA Internationale, Inc. have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. As used in this report in Form 10-K, the “Company” represents ISA Internationale, Inc.
1.)
NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1.a) NATURE OF BUSINESS
ISA Internationale, Inc. (“ISAI”) was a financial services company specializing in debt collections for third party clients and our own portfolios of distressed debt receivables. The Company and its Board of Directors decided to become a Business Development Corporation on June 29, 2012 and accordingly filed Form N54-A with the Securities and Exchange Commission. See note 7 for an explanation of the Company’s future plans and direction following a revised and new business plan of operations.
These financial statements include the Company, ISA Internationale, Inc. but does not include the non-consolidated wholly owned subsidiary, ISA Financial Services, Inc. (formerly ISA Acquisition Corporation), except in the reflection of its “Obligations in excess of investment basis in the controlled affiliate” on the Company’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities, and the related loss in investment on the Statement of Operations, Statement of Cash Flows, and Statement of Changes in Net Liabilities.
43
1.b) PRESENTATION
On June 28, 2012, the Company filed Form N-54A with the United States Securities Exchange Commission to become a Business Development Company (“BDC”). As a result, it became a closed-end company (mutual fund) organized and operates for the purpose of making investments in securities described in Section 55 (a)(1) through (3) of the Investment Company Act of 1940; and that it will make available significant managerial assistance to American companies with respect to issuers of such securities to the extent required by the act. The Company commenced significant investment activities in fiscal 2013 and began reporting and accounting methodologies consistent with BDC requirements at the beginning of fiscal 2013.
At the beginning of fiscal 2013, the Company began reporting as a BDC and the attached financial statements for the years ended September 30, have been formatted in conformity with those of other BDC financial statements, including the BDC supplemental schedules, as required for comparative purposes. Although the nature ofthe Company's operations and its reported financial position, results of operations, and its cash flows are dissimilar for the periods prior to and subsequent to its becoming an investment company, its financial position for the year ended September 30, 2013 and its operating results, cash flows and changes in net assets for the year ended September 30, 2013 are presented in the accompanying financial statements pursuant to Article 6 of Regulation S−X. The results of September 30, 2012 are representative of the company as an operational company, prior to becoming an investment entity. In addition, the accompanying footnotes, although different in nature as to the required disclosures and information reported therein, is also presented as they relate to each of the above referenced periods.
1.c) USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the financial statements is in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, such as the fair value of investments and estimated obligations related to contractual commitments, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
44
1.d) STOCK BASED COMPENSATION AT FAIR VALUE
Significant estimates of the fair value of the Company's common stock were computed under FASB ASC 718-30, Compensation - Stock-Based Compensation. The valuations were based upon the Company's estimates of the goods or services or transactional related value of consideration received by the Company. Because only limited market activity in the OTC exchange exists for the Company's common shares, the Company used alternative valuations of estimates for consummated agreements.
There was $66,500 of stock-based compensation of shares of the Company's common stock issued for services for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013. Of these, $21,000 relates to commission charges related to the investment in Reality which were capitalized to the cost of that investment. There was no similar issuance of any shares or stock based compensation amount for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012.
45
1.e) CASH
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments and other short term investments with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash or cash equivalents.
1.f) LOSS PER SHARE
Basic loss per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share includes assumed conversion shares consisting of dilutive stock options and warrants determined by the treasury stock method and dilutive convertible securities. In fiscal years ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, all potentially issuable shares have been excluded from the calculation of loss per share, as their effect is anti-dilutive.
1.g) INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amount and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
We record net deferred tax assets to the extent we believe these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, the Company considers all available evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. In the event we were to determine we would be able to realize our deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their recorded amount, we would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision
For income taxes. Refer to Note 3 for more information.
1.h) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company has categorized it financial assets and liabilities based upon the Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures (ASC 820). This standard defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures.
46
This standard does not require any new fair value measurement, but discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost).
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The fair value should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity. In addition, the fair value of liabilities should include consideration of non-performance risk including our own credit risk.
In addition to defining fair value, the disclosure requirements around fair value establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs which is expanded. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. Each fair value measurement is reported in one of the three levels which is determined by the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are described as:
Level 1: Quoted Market prices in Active Markets
Inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.
Level 2: Significant Observable Inputs
Inputs are based upon significant observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3: Significant Unobservable Inputs
Inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management's estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques that include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques.
The carrying value of the Company's non-investment financial assets and liabilities which consist of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and notes payable are valued using level 1 inputs. The Company believes that the recorded values approximate their fair value due to the short maturity of such instruments. Unless otherwise noted, it is management's opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, exchange or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.
47
1.i) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Fair value measurements of our financial instrument assets are presented in the following table:
Fair Value Measurements as of September 30, 2013:

Level 3 Fair Value Measurements
The Company’s assessment of fair value of investments is based on a third party market analyst, communication with management of investees, internal estimates, or a combination thereof. The unobservable input is the probability estimate of realizing an investment return.
ASU 2011-04 requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, including the valuation processes used by the reporting entity, the sensitivity of the fair value to changes in unobservable inputs, and the interrelationships between those unobservable inputs, if any. Following are descriptions of the sensitivity of the Level 3 recurring fair value measurements to changes in the significant unobservable inputs noted above. For investment securities, a significant increase (decrease) in the share value in a subsequent sale or repurchase of securities would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.
On October 1, 2012, the Company began reporting as a business development company (BDC). As such, we no longer consolidate our wholly owned subsidiary, ISAF, in accordance with Article 6.03 of Regulation S-X. Instead, we show our 100% investment at the approximate fair market value. Because obligations exceed the fair value of the investment in ISAF, we record this as a current liability of the Company at September 30, 2013 in the amount of $182,305.
During the year ended September 30, 2013, The Company made an investment in Reality Corp, a biomedical company, in the amount of $1,000 for the purchase of 10,000,000 of Reality common shares. This transaction was reported on a fair value basis at the original purchase price of $.0001 with no change in Fair Value incurred through June 30, 2013. The Company also capitalized to Investment assets- Reality Corp. a development cost expense to a related party for $12,000 worth of ISAT common stock. During the quarter ended September 30, 2013, the parties agreed to reduce the Company’s investment to 5,000,000 shares with a refund due ISAT in the amount of $500. The Company has decided to record the write-off of this investment of $13,000 in full as Reality does not provide any updates or news on Company developments and has not as of September 30, 2013, repaid the $500 for the return of the 5,000,000 shares as recorded in the termination agreement. Costs of $21,000 which had been recorded as a development cost incurred through September 30, 2013 have also been recorded as a further investment loss.
1.j) NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The Company’s management and auditors have evaluated all recently issued accounting pronouncements through the filing date of these financial statements and has determined that these pronouncements will have no material impact on the financial statements of ISA Internationale, Inc.
1.k) FIXED ASSETS
Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided for in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated service lives, principally on a straight-line basis. Estimated service lives of property and equipment is 5 years. As of September 30, 2013 The Company’s fixed assets are fully depreciated.
49
(2.) LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN MATTERS
The Company has incurred losses since its inception and as a result has an accumulated deficit of $10,268,986 at September 30, 2013. The net loss for the twelve month period ended September 30, 2013 was $190,990. Additionally, working capital represented a deficit of $409,326. These factors raised substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company received loans and cash advances totaling $66,178 from a related party during the year ended September 30, 2013. These loans and cash advances have been recorded as a convertible note payable to the related party and not treated as additional contributed capital to the Company’s paid in capital as had been done through September 30, 2012 in the amount of $89,306.
As of September 30, 2013, the Company also had obligations due on investments made to ISA Financial Services, Inc. an unconsolidated related party affiliate in the amount of $182,305. These obligations will require payment by the Company in the near future as the BDC activities further commence.
The Company's ability to continue as a going concern depends upon successfully restructuring its debt, obtaining sufficient financing to maintain adequate liquidity and provide for capital expansion until such time as operations produce positive cash flow. The Company had been in reorganization but decided in June 2012, to cease its debt collection operations and change is business plan of operations to be that of a BDC.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes continuity of operations and realization of assets and liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result if the Company was forced to discontinue its operations.
The Company's current plans are not to continue its debt collection operation, but instead develop an acceptable business plan of operations for the activities of a BDC more specifically operating as an internally managed, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development Company under the Investment Company Act of 1940. We generally have to invest at least 70% of our total assets in“qualifying assets,” including securities of American companies, cash, cash equivalents, U.S.A. government securities and high-quality debt investments.
We plan to elect to be treated for tax purposes as a regulated investment company, or a RIC, under Subchapter M of the Code. However, there is no guarantee that we will be successful in obtaining or maintaining our RIC status. As a new BDC operation, we have not yet generated a taxable profit. As a new BDC investment company, we need to further develop the sources of funds either by loans or equity investments to sustain the activities intended for new ventures.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.
(3.) INCOME TAXES
The Company has incurred significant net operating losses. The Company has not reflected any benefit of such net operating loss carry-forwards in the accompanying financial statements. The income tax expense benefit differed from the amount computed by applying the U.S. federal income tax rate of 34% to income before income taxes as a result of the following:
Tax Year ended September 30, 2013 2012
--------- ---------
Computed "expected" tax benefit 34.0% 34.0%
State income tax, net of federal benefit 3.8% 3.8%
Change in valuation allowance (37.8%) (37.8%)
--------- -------

The tax effect of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets for the period ended September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012 is presented below:

Deferred tax assets:

Net deferred tax assets $ -- $ --
=========== ==========
During the year ended September 30, 2012, a portion of the Company’s available consolidated net operating loss was transferred to ISAC in connection with the sale of the operating subsidiary ISA Acceptance Corporation to DLC, a related party. Accordingly, the deferred tax benefits of the Company were reduced by the transferred portion of the accumulated deficit (net operating loss of $1,150,086) which reduced the presented deferred tax benefit by $401,314 at September 30, 2012.
50
In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Based on the level of historical taxable income and projections of future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management does not believe that it is more likely than not the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences. Accordingly, the Company has provided a valuation allowance against the gross deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2013 and 2012.
For the year ended September 30, 2013, the Company reported a net operating tax loss carry-forward of approximately $7,607,892, after being reduced by the pass-off of that portion of the accumulated net operating loss carry-forward related to the subsidiary that was disposed of at June 30, 2012. The federal net operating loss carry-forward begins to expire in the year 2017.
Federal tax laws impose significant restrictions on the utilization of net operating loss carry-forward in the event of a change in ownership of the Company that constitutes an "ownership change" as defined by the Internal Revenue Code, Section 382. The Company's net operating loss carry-forward will be subject to the above limitations.

At the end of the year on September 30, 2013 the net amount of these loans totaled $101,739. These loans outstanding of $101,739 bear interest at the rate of 12% per annum and are also convertible at the option of the holder into 1,403,297common shares of the Company at a conversion price of $.0725 per common share.

As a result, the Company recorded an extraordinary item of income at June 30, 2012 in the amount of $77,116. This gain of $77,116 has been recorded as a gain on liability extinguishment of the debt on the books of the Company at June 30, 2012.
53
(6.) DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
During the recent quarters of operations beginning with the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009, the Company had experienced a history of losses from operations. Due to the Company's financial condition and inability to continue ongoing operations with current cash flows, along with debt obligations, the Company's Board of Directors and management determined that it would be in the best interest of the Company's stockholders to sell all of the operating assets and liabilities associated with the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary that was in the debt collection business on June 28, 2012.
On June 28, 2012, the Board of Directors approved the sale of all the assets and liabilities of a wholly owned subsidiary operating completely within the debt collection business to related parties that had been directing and operating all of the efforts of the Company to establish itself within that industry. The related parties have a Company that has been in the debt liquidation business and through an agreement the parties have decided to sell the assets and related inherent liabilities to that entity 100% owned by the related parties under a Stock Purchase Agreement dated June 29, 2012. Accordingly, on June 29, 2012 the Company completed the sale of substantially all of the subsidiary assets and liabilities of the subsidiary ISA Acceptance Corporation to Doubletree Liquidation Corporation, a Minnesota corporation formed in 2005 by the related parties, for consideration valued at $22,782, which consisted of the following:
The transaction as herein described:
(i) 7,065,300 of the seller Company’s, ISA Internationale, Inc. common stock shares which were to be delivered to the Purchaser at Closing.
(ii) An unsecured promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $22,782, as amended on September 30, 2012, (amended from $14,500 that was determined to be due at June 30, 2012) due the seller within 3 years. The promissory note bears interest at the rate of 6%, with principal and interest due on upon the disposition of the liquidation of the various assets sold on June 29, 2012. Additional proceeds are due as follows in a separate provision in the purchase agreement as of June 30, 2012. The Purchaser DLC also has the obligation to pay to the seller ISAF, additional certain specific excess proceeds received by DLC on the sale of the first 3,000,000 shares of ISA Internationale, Inc. in excess of $.25 per share of stock sold and further after all of the trade debts that are owed by ISAC as of June 29, 2012 are paid in full. This provision is not a part of the promissory note obligation on the payment of the $22,782 plus interest due thereon until paid in full, but is a part of the Purchase Agreement signed by ISAF to Doubletree Liquidation Corporation
The following tables summarize the consideration received and the net liabilities divested:
Consideration Received
Promissory Note in the amount of $22,781 with interest at the rate of 6% per annum until paid in full.
Proceeds received by DLC, the seller, on shares sold by them exceeding a sale price of $.25 per share on the first 3,000,000 common shares sold by the purchaser, as explained above. No value to this provision has been calculated as of June 30, 2012 because the Company can’t predict what proceeds, if any, would accrue to the Company on the sale of common shares tendered to ISAC in full payment for the intercompany loans paid in full with the issuance of 7,065,300 common stock shares to ISAC or if the holder of the shares will even be able to sell any of the shares of common stock received.

No gain or loss was recorded in relation to the 2012 Asset Sale as the transaction was between entities under common control. Accordingly, the excess of the fair value of the consideration received over the net assets disposed of was treated as a capital contribution in the statement of shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2012.

Item 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
ISA International Inc., under the direction, supervision, and participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by management and other personnel, has conducted an evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 240.13a-15(e) and 240.15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based on the foregoing, we concluded our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report.
(b) Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The management of ISA Internationale Inc. is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Under the direction, supervision, and participation of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by management and other personnel, our management and certifying officers conducted an evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO-Framework). 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. In connection with management’s assessment of our internal control over financial reporting as required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, we identified the following material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2012:
The Company has not established adequate financial reporting monitoring activities to mitigate the risk of management override. Specifically, there is a lack of segregation of duties as there is only one officer/employee overseeing the finance department.
59
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.
(c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during our most recently completed fiscal quarter, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
