Item 2. Plan of Operation
Overview
Renovo Holdings is a Development Stage Company that intends to capitalize upon the niche market opportunities within the commercial and residential restoration service markets. We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 18, 2000 under the name First Impressions.
7
On July 14, 2003, we amended our Articles of Incorporation to change our name from First Impressions to Fortis Enterprises. We subsequently changed our name to Renovo Holdings on June 14, 2004.
Plan of Operation
Since our incorporation in October 2000, we have not been engaged in any significant operations nor have we had any significant revenues, as we are in the development stage. We intend to achieve growth through mergers and acquisitions of small to mid-sized cleaning and restoration services companies throughout the United States.
We intend to focus on growth through acquisition. We believe that there can be "Economies of Scale" achieved by consolidating the "single owner" restoration companies into Renovo Holdings. We believe that it can reduce combined overall overhead among the companies acquired by eliminating many duplicated everyday business nuisances for the small business owners such as accounting services, marketing and advertising costs, office staff and equipment, etc. We also believe that consolidating and focusing efforts on a combined marketing campaign will assist the various companies merged into Renovo Holdings to achieve overall revenue growth.
On November 11, 2003, we executed a Letter of Intent with a privately held company based in Northern Florida that specializes in insurance restoration services. The Letter of Intent outlines the basic parameters under which the privately held company would agree to be acquired by us. We are working together with the acquisition candidate to perform the necessary due diligence that will allow both parties to sign a definitive agreement, which will provide the specific details regarding the terms and conditions of the acquisition. Upon completion of a definitive agreement we will file a Form 8-K. Two of the principals associated with the privately held company are currently consultants for us.
Satisfaction of our cash obligation for the next 12 months.
We plan on satisfying our cash obligations over the next twelve months through additional equity and/or third party financing. We do not anticipate generating revenues sufficient enough to satisfy our working capital requirements within the next twelve months.
A critical component of our operating plan impacting our continued existence is the ability to obtain additional capital through additional equity and/or debt financing. We do not anticipate enough positive internal operating cash flow until such time as we can generate substantial revenues, which may take the next few years to fully realize. In the event we cannot obtain the necessary capital to pursue our strategic plan, we may have to cease or significantly curtail our operations. This would materially impact our ability to continue operations.
On April 14, 2004, we entered into a Standby Equity Distribution Agreement with Cornell Capital Partners, LP ("Cornell"), wherein we agreed to issue and sell to Cornell and Cornell agreed to purchase from us $5,000,000 of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share. Additionally, we entered into a secured convertible debenture agreement with Cornell in order to provide us with expedited access to $300,000 of the funding, $150,000 of which we immediately received and on July 9, 2004 we received the remaining $150,000.
8
Our near term cash requirements are anticipated to be offset through the receipt of funds from the Cornell convertible debenture, private placement offerings and loans obtained through private sources. We filed a registration statement (declared effective by the SEC on July 14, 2004) registering 368,687,500 shares of our common stock for the resale by all investors who purchase convertible debentures and to cover the $5,000,000 equity line under the Equity Distribution Agreement. We anticipate being able to use the line of credit to finance our operations. Since inception, we have financed cash flow requirements through debt financing and issuance of common stock for cash and services. As we expand operational activities, we may continue to experience net negative cash flows from operations, pending receipt of servicing or licensing fees, and will be required to obtain additional financing to fund operations through common stock offerings and bank borrowings to the extent necessary to provide working capital.
Over the next twelve months we believe that existing capital and anticipated funds from operations will not be sufficient to sustain operations and planned expansion. However, the line of credit is anticipated to satisfy our working capital needs, but if it is not available, we will be required to seek additional capital in the future to fund growth and expansion through additional equity or debt financing or credit facilities. No assurance can be made that such financing would be available, and if available it may take either the form of debt or equity. In either case, the financing could have a negative impact on our financial condition and our Stockholders.
We anticipate incurring operating losses over the next twelve months. Our lack of operating history makes predictions of future operating results difficult to ascertain. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of development. Such risks include, but are not limited to, an evolving and unpredictable business model and the management of growth. To address these risks we must, among other things, obtain a customer base, implement and successfully execute our business and marketing strategy, continue to develop and upgrade technology and products, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so can have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
Going Concern
The consolidated financial statements included in this filing have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles that contemplate the continuance of the Company as a going concern. The Company's cash position may be inadequate to pay all of the costs associated with its intended business plan. Management intends to use borrowings and security sales to mitigate the effects of its cash position, however no assurance can be given that debt or equity financing, if and when required will be available. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue existence.
Summary of any product and development that we will perform for the term of the plan. We do not anticipate performing any significant product research and development under our plan of operation. In lieu of product research and development, we anticipate acquiring small renovation businesses.
9
Expected purchase or sale of plant and significant equipment. We do not anticipate the purchase or sale of any plant or significant equipment, as such items are not required by us at this time or anticipated to be needed in the next twelve months; however as the result of our plan for acquisitions of renovation businesses, we may acquire equipment, and in some cases plants, which relate to the renovation businesses.
Significant changes in the number of employees. As of June 30, 2004, we had 1 employee. We are dependent upon Steve W. Carnes our sole officer and director. We will need to hire full time operational staff as our operations commence and we complete anticipated acquisitions.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT OUR PLAN OF OPERATION
Renovo has historically lost money and losses may continue in the future, which may cause us to curtail operations.
Since our inception we have not been profitable and have lost money on both a cash and non-cash basis. For the years ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002 we incurred net losses of $313,527 and $10,648 respectively. Our accumulated deficit at the end of June 30, 2004 was $805,772. Future losses are likely to occur, as we are dependent on spending money to pay for our operations. No assurances can be given that we will be successful in reaching or maintaining profitable operations. Accordingly, we may experience liquidity and cash flow problems. If our losses continue, our ability to operate may be severely impacted.
Renovo may need to raise additional capital or debt funding to sustain operations.
Unless we can become profitable with the existing sources of funds we have available and our operations, we will require additional capital to sustain operations and we may need access to additional capital or additional debt financing to grow our sales. In addition, to the extent that we have a working capital deficit and cannot offset the deficit from profitable sales we may have to raise capital to repay the deficit and provide more working capital to permit growth in revenues. We cannot be assured that financing whether from external sources or related parties will be available if needed or on favorable terms. Our inability to obtain adequate financing will result in the need to reduce the pace of business operations. Any of these events could be materially harmful to our business and may result in a lower stock price.
We have been the subject of a going concern opinion for the years ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002 from our independent auditors, which means that we may not be able to continue operations unless we can become profitable or obtain additional funding.
10
Our independent auditors have added an explanatory paragraph to their audit opinions issued in connection with our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, which states that the financial statements raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to make operations profitable or obtain additional funding will determine our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. We expect to be able to continue operations for twelve months with the cash currently on hand, anticipated from our operations and from the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Equity Distribution Agreement entered into by the Company and Cornell Capital Partners, which were signed on April 14, 2004.
We are subject to a working capital deficit, which means that our current assets on December 31, 2003 and for the Quarter ended June 2004, were not sufficient to satisfy our current liabilities and, therefore, our ability to continue operations is at risk.
We had a working capital deficit for the year ended December 31, 2003 and for the Quarter ended June 30, 2004, which means that our current liabilities exceeded our current assets on December 31, 2003 by $101,922 and by $358,879 on June 30, 2004. Current assets are assets that are expected to be converted to cash within one year and, therefore, may be used to pay current liabilities as they become due. Our working capital deficit means that our current assets on December 31, 2003, and on June 30, 2004 were not sufficient to satisfy all of our current liabilities on those dates. If our ongoing operations do not begin to provide sufficient profitability to offset the working capital deficit, we may have to raise capital or debt to fund the deficit or curtail future operations.
Our obligations under the secured convertible debentures are secured by all of our assets.
Our obligations under the secured debentures, issued to Cornell Capital Partners are secured by all of our assets. As a result, if we default under the terms of the secured debentures, Cornell Capital Partners could foreclose its security interest and liquidate all of the assets of the Company. This would cease operations.
Our common stock may be affected by limited trading volume and may fluctuate significantly, which may affect our stockholders' ability to sell shares of our common stock.
Prior to this filing, there has been a limited public market for our common stock and there can be no assurance that a more active trading market for our common stock will develop. An absence of an active trading market could adversely affect our stockholders' ability to sell our common stock in short time periods, or possibly at all. Our common stock has experienced, and is likely to experience in the future, significant price and volume fluctuations, which could adversely affect the market price of our common stock without regard to our operating performance. In addition, we believe that factors such as quarterly fluctuations in our financial results and changes in the overall economy or the condition of the financial markets could cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially. These fluctuations may also cause short sellers to enter the market from time to time in the belief that we will have poor results in the future. We cannot predict the actions of market participants and, therefore, can offer no assurances that the market for our stock will be stable or appreciate over time. The factors may negatively impact shareholders' ability to sell shares of the Company's common stock.
11
Our common stock is deemed to be "Penny Stock," which may make it more difficult for investors to sell their shares due to suitability requirements.
Our common stock is deemed to be "penny stock" as that term is defined in Rule 3a51-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These requirements 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 them. This could cause our stock price to decline. Penny stocks are stock:
With a price of less than $5.00 per share;
That are not traded on a "recognized" national exchange;
Whose prices are not quoted on the NASDAQ automated quotation system (NASDAQ listed stock must still have a price of not less than $5.00 per share); or
In issuers with net tangible assets less than $2.0 million (if the issuer has been in continuous operation for at least three years) or $10.0 million (if in continuous operation for less than three years), or with average revenues of less than $6.0 million for the last three years.
Broker/dealers dealing in penny stocks are required to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks. Moreover, broker/dealers are required to determine whether an investment in a penny stock is a suitable investment for a prospective investor.
We could fail to attract or retain key personnel, which could be detrimental to our operations.
Our success largely depends on the efforts and abilities of Stephen W. Carnes, our sole Officer and Director. The loss of the services of Mr. Carnes could materially harm our business because of the cost and time necessary to find a successor. Such a loss would also divert management attention away from operational issues. We do not presently maintain key-man life insurance policies on Mr. Carnes. We do not have other key employees who manage our operations. To the extent that we are smaller than our competitors and have fewer resources, we may not be able to attract a sufficient number and quality of staff, when required.
We may not be able to compete effectively in markets where our competitors have more resources.
Most of our competitors have longer operating histories, larger customer bases, longer relationships with clients, and significantly greater financial, technical, marketing, and public relations resources than Renovo. Based on total assets and annual revenues, we are significantly smaller many of our competitors. Similarly, we compete against significantly larger and better-financed companies in our business. If we compete with our primary competitors for the same geographical markets and customer base, their financial strength could prevent us from capturing those markets. We may not successfully compete in any market in which we intend to conduct operations in the future. The fact that we compete with established competitors who have substantially greater financial resources and longer operating histories than us, enables them to engage in substantial advertising and promotion and attract a greater number of customers and business than we currently attract. While this competition is already intense, if it increases, it could have an even greater adverse impact on our revenues and profitability.
12
Our limited operating history makes it difficult to forecast our future results.
As a result of our limited operating history, our historical financial and operating information is of limited value in predicting our future operating results. We may not accurately forecast customer behavior and recognize or respond to emerging trends, changing preferences or competitive factors facing us, and, therefore, we may fail to make accurate financial forecasts. Our current and future expense levels are based largely on our investment plans and estimates of future revenue. As a result, we may be unable to adjust our spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall, which could force us to curtail or cease our business operations.
Item 3. Controls and Procedures.
We are a development stage company with no revenues and during the period covered by this quarterly report our sole officer and director, Stephen Carnes, had responsibility for our internal controls and procedures over our financial reporting.
We have implemented and maintain disclosure controls and procedures which consist of: the control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information and communication and monitoring. Our scope of internal control therefore extends to policies, plans procedures, processes, systems, activities, initiatives, and endeavors required of a company with our limited transactions, expenses, and operations. These controls and procedures are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules.
There have been no significant changes (including corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses) in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect the controls subsequent to the date of the evaluation referenced below.
Within 90 days prior to the date of this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of Mr. Carnes, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, Mr. Carnes concluded that, given the Company's limited operations, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
