| NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF COMPANY |
|
| Newtown Lane Marketing Incorporated (“we”, “our”, “us” or “Newtown”) was incorporated in Delaware on September 26, 2005. We are a development stage company that previously held the exclusive license to exploit the Dreesen's Donut Brand in the United States with the exception of the states of Florida and Pennsylvania, and in Suffolk County, New York, which Dreesen retained for itself. In August 2007 there was a change in control, as detailed below, and we discontinued our efforts to promote the Dreesen's Donut Brand at that time. Accordingly, prior operations in this regard are reflected in these financial statements as discontinued operations. The license from Dreesen expired on December 31, 2007. |
|
| The interim financial information as of December 31, 2013 and for the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to provide for fair presentation. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, previously filed with the SEC. |
|
| In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present a fair statement of our financial position as of December 31, 2013 and results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, as applicable, have been made. The results of operations for the nine months ended December 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be expected for the full fiscal year or any future periods. |

| EQUITY TRANSACTIONS |
|
| On August 8, 2007 (the “Effective Date”), we entered into and closed a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Moyo Partners, LLC, a New York limited liability company (“Moyo”) and R&R Biotech Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“R&R” collectively with Moyo, the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which we sold to them, in the aggregate, approximately, four hundred forty seven thousand nine hundred twenty five (447,925) shares (rounded-up) of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) and five hundred (500 ) shares of our Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Series A Preferred Stock”), each share convertible at the option of the holder into, approximately, one thousand four hundred eighty two (1,482) shares (rounded-up) of Common Stock, for aggregate gross proceeds to us of $600,000. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock were convertible only to the extent there were a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance upon any such conversion. |
|
| On the Effective Date: (i) the Purchasers acquired control of Newtown, with (a) R&R acquiring nine hundred fifty thousand nine hundred forty four (950,944) shares (rounded-up) of Common Stock (assuming the conversion by R&R of the four hundred (400) shares of Series A Preferred Stock it acquired pursuant to the Purchase Agreement into five hundred ninety two thousand eight hundred (592,800) shares (rounded-up) of Common Stock) constituting 72% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, and (b) Moyo acquiring two hundred thirty seven thousand seven hundred thirty six (237,736) shares (rounded-up) of Common Stock (assuming the conversion by Moyo of its one hundred (100) shares of Series A Preferred Stock it acquired pursuant to the Purchase Agreement into one hundred forty eight thousand one hundred fifty one (148,151) shares (rounded-up) of Common Stock) constituting 18% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock; and (ii) in full satisfaction of our obligations under outstanding convertible promissory notes in the principal amount of $960,000 (the “December Notes”), the Note holders of the December Notes converted an aggregate of $479,811 of principal and accrued interest into 27,420 shares (rounded-up) of Common Stock and accepted a cash payment from us in the aggregate amount of $625,030 for the remaining principal balance. |
|
| On the Effective Date: (i) Arnold P. Kling was appointed to our Board of Directors (“Board”) and served together with Vincent J. McGill, a then current director who continued to serve until August 20, 2007, the effective date of his resignation from our Board; (ii) all of our then officers and directors, with the exception of Mr. McGill, resigned from their respective positions with us; (iii) our Board appointed Mr. Kling as president and Kirk M. Warshaw as chief financial officer and secretary; and (iv) we relocated our headquarters to Chatham, New Jersey. |
|
| Following Mr. McGill’s resignation from our Board on August 20, 2007, Mr. Kling became our sole director and president. |
|
| On October 19, 2007, we put into effect an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to increase to 100,000,000 the number of authorized shares of Common Stock available for issuance (the “Charter Amendment”). As a result of the Charter Amendment, as of October 19, 2007, we had adequate shares of Common Stock available for issuance upon the conversion of all the issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock. |
|
| On December 19, 2007, the holders of all the issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock elected to convert all of their shares into shares of Common Stock. As a result, the 500 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding were exchanged for 740,754 shares of Common Stock. |
|
| On August 15, 2008 (the “Series A Preferred Elimination Date”), all 500 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock were returned to the status of authorized and unissued shares of undesignated preferred stock, par value $0.001 per shares. None of the Series A Preferred Stock were outstanding as of the Series A Preferred Elimination Date. |
|
| On August 29, 2008 (the “Reverse Split Effective Date”), we implemented a 1 for 50 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Split”) of the Common Stock. Pursuant to the Reverse Split, each 50 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the Reverse Split Effective Date was converted into one (1) share of Common Stock. All share and per share data herein has been retroactively restated to reflect the Reverse Split. |
|
| In December 2008, we sold 55,000 shares of restricted common stock to our Chief Financial Officer, for $2,000. The issuance of these shares was exempt from registration pursuant to Sections 4(2) and 4(6) or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). The stock certificate representing these shares was imprinted with a legend restricting transfer unless pursuant to an effective registration statement or an exemption from registration under the Act. |
|
| On May 6, 2013, Ironbound Partners Fund, LLC (“Ironbound”) acquired 950,944 shares of our outstanding Common Stock (the “Acquired Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $15,000, or $0.0157737 per share from the Chapter 7 Trustee of the Estates of Rodman & Renshaw, LLC (“Rodman”), Direct Markets, Inc., and Direct Markets Holdings, Corp. in Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceedings pending in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (Cases No. 13-10087, 13-10088 and 13-10089). The Acquired Shares constituted all the shares of Common Stock previously owned by R&R, an affiliate of Rodman, and represent 69.1% of our total issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock as of May 6, 2013. |
|
| On May 14, 2013, Ironbound lent $100,000 to us and we issued a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $100,000 to Ironbound (the “Note”). The Note is for a two-year term and bears interest at the rate of 5.0% per annum, payable at maturity. The principal and accrued interest on the Note is convertible into shares of Common Stock upon the consummation of a “Fundamental Transaction” (as defined in the Note) at the “Conversion Price” (as defined in the Note). |
|
| As of December 31, 2013, our authorized capital stock consisted of 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock of which 1,375,755 shares of Common Stock, and no shares of Preferred Stock, were issued and outstanding. All shares of Common Stock currently outstanding are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. |
|
| THE COMPANY TODAY |
|
| Since the Effective Date, our main purpose has been to serve as a vehicle to acquire an operating business. We are currently considered a “shell” company in as much as we are not generating revenues, do not own an operating business, and have no specific plan other than to engage in a merger or acquisition transaction with a yet-to-be identified operating company or business. Our principal business objective for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with an operating business rather than immediate, short-term earnings. We will not restrict our potential candidate target companies to any specific business, industry or geographical location and, thus, may acquire any type of business. The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by or under the supervision of our officers and directors. We have no employees and no material assets. |
|
| Commencing with the filing of our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2007, all of our donut-related business services activities have been accounted for as Discontinued Operations. As such, all of the prior activity has been shown in the financials as one line item that is labeled “Loss from Discontinued Operations.” Our activities since August 2007 are shown in the Income Statement under the section labeled “Loss from Continuing Operations.” These amounts are for expenses incurred since August 2007 and are of the nature we expect to incur in the future, whereas the Loss from Discontinued Operations are from activities we are no longer engaged in. |
