BLACK SEA OIL, INC.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
|
|
NOTE 1 – | Organization and Basis of Presentation |
Black Sea Oil, Inc. was incorporated under Nevada law on January 10, 2006 originally as Terrapin Enterprises, Inc. (“Terrapin”). On December 6, 2006, Terrapin merged its newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary, Black Sea Oil, Inc. (“Black Sea”) into Terrapin and changed its corporate name to Black Sea Oil, Inc. (“the Company”) pursuant to a Plan and Agreement of Merger dated December 6, 2006. For accounting purposes, this is a capital transaction and the equivalent to the issuance of common stock by Terrapin for the net monetary assets of Black Sea ($0), accompanied by a recapitalization. On December 18, 2006, the Company effected to a 17.5-for-1 forward stock split of its common stock, reduced the par value from $.001 per share to $.0001 per share and increased its authorized common shares from 100,000,000 to 1,750,000,000 shares. In addition, the Company changed the par value of its authorized preferred stock from $.001 per share to $.0001 per share. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to give effect to this recapitalization. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year.
In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the information set forth therein. These financial statements are condensed and therefore do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s December 31, 2007 audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the annual report on Form 10-KSB as of such date.
Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for a full year.
The Company is a development stage company and has not commenced planned principal operations. The Company had no revenues and incurred a net loss of $69,800 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and a net loss of $152,166 for the period January 10, 2006 (inception) to September 30, 2008. In addition, the Company had a working capital deficit of $108,801 at September 30, 2008. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
There can be no assurance that sufficient funds will be generated during the next year or thereafter from operations or that funds will be available from external sources such as debt or equity financings or other potential sources. The lack of additional capital could force the Company to curtail or cease operations and would, therefore, have a material adverse effect on its business. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any such required funds, if available, will be available on attractive terms or that they will not have a significant dilutive effect on the Company’s existing stockholders.
The Company is attempting to address its lack of liquidity by raising additional funds, either in the form of equity or debt or some combination thereof. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise the additional funds it requires.
The accompanying condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations. |
As used in this Form 10-Q, references to the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us” refer to Black Sea Oil, Inc., unless the context otherwise indicates.
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto.
Forward-Looking Statements
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, which are included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. This Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements which relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may”, “should”, “expects”, “plans”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “estimates”, “predicts”, “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.
While these forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect our current judgment regarding the direction of our business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions or other future performance suggested herein. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.
Overview
We were incorporated under Nevada law on January 10, 2006 under the corporate name Terrapin Enterprises, Inc. On December 6, 2006, we merged our newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary, Black Sea Oil, Inc. into us and changed our corporate name to Black Sea Oil, Inc. pursuant to a Plan and Agreement of Merger dated December 6, 2006. On December 18, 2006, we effected to a 17.5-for-1 forward stock split of our common stock. All share and per share information in this Quarterly Report give effect to that 17.5-for-1 forward stock split.
We are a development stage company that has not generated any revenue. Prior to the merger, we were focused on developing and offering interactive educational enrichment media programming specifically designed for children ages 6 to 12 years of age. Since the change of control in December 2006, we decided to seek, investigate and, if such
9
investigation warrants, engage in a business combination with a private entity whose business presents an opportunity for our shareholders.
On September 29, 2008, the Company amended its articles of incorporation with an effective November 14, 2008 to: (a) implement a 1 to 1000 reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock held by each stockholder of record at October 21, 2008, without correspondingly decreasing the number of authorized shares of common stock; and (b) change its name from “Black Sea Oil, Inc.” to “Clearview Acquisitions, Inc.”
Plan of Operation
Our objectives discussed below are extremely general and are not intended to restrict our discretion. This discussion of the proposed business is not meant to be restrictive of our virtually unlimited discretion to search for and enter into potential business opportunities.
We have no particular acquisition in mind and have not entered into any negotiations regarding such an acquisition. Neither our sole officer nor any affiliate has engaged in any negotiations with any representative of any company regarding the possibility of an acquisition or merger between our company and such other company. We have not yet entered into any agreement, nor do we have any commitment or understanding to enter into or become engaged in a transaction.
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. Further, we may acquire a venture which is in its preliminary or development stage, one which is already in operation, or in a more mature stage of its corporate existence. Accordingly, business opportunities may be available in many different industries and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities difficult and complex.
We believe that there are numerous firms seeking the perceived benefits of a publicly registered corporation. These benefits are commonly thought to include the following: (i) the ability to use registered securities to acquire assets or businesses; (ii) increased visibility in the marketplace; (iii) ease of borrowing from financial institutions; (iv) improved stock trading efficiency; (v) shareholder liquidity; (vi) greater ease in subsequently raising capital; (vii) compensation of key employees through stock options; (viii) enhanced corporate image; and (ix) a presence in the United States capital market. We have not conducted market research and are not aware of statistical data to support the perceived benefits of a merger or acquisition transaction for the owners of a business opportunity.
Target companies interested in a business combination with our company may include the following: (i) a company for whom a primary purpose of becoming public is the use of its securities for the acquisition of other assets or businesses; (ii) a company which is unable to find an underwriter of its securities or is unable to find an underwriter of securities on terms acceptable to it; (iii) a company which desires to become public with less dilution of its common stock than would occur upon an underwriting; (iv) a company which believes that it will be able to obtain investment capital on more favorable terms
10
after it has become public; (v) a foreign company which may wish an initial entry into the United States securities market; (vi) a special situation company, such as a company seeking a public market to satisfy redemption requirements under a qualified Employee Stock Option Plan; (vii) a company seeking one or more of the other mentioned perceived benefits of becoming a public company.
We anticipate seeking out a target business through solicitation. Such solicitation may include newspaper or magazine advertisements, mailings and other distributions to law firms, accounting firms, investment bankers, financial advisors and similar persons, the use of one or more World Wide Web sites and similar methods. No estimate can be made as to the number of persons who will be contacted or solicited. Such persons will have no relationship to our management.
The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by or under the supervision of Tatiana Mikitchuk, our sole executive officer and director. Tatiana Mikitchuk, our sole executive officer, is not a business analyst. Therefore, it is anticipated that outside consultants or advisors may be utilized to assist us in the search for and analysis of qualified target companies.
A decision to participate in a specific business opportunity will be made based upon our analysis of the quality of the prospective business opportunity’s management and personnel, assets, the anticipated acceptability of products or marketing concepts, the merit of a proposed business plan, and numerous other factors which are difficult, if not impossible, to analyze using any objective criteria. We have unrestricted flexibility in seeking, analyzing and participating in potential business opportunities.
In our efforts to analyze potential acquisition targets, we will consider the following kinds of factors: (a) potential for growth, indicated by new technology, anticipated market expansion or new products; (b) competitive position as compared to other firms of similar size and experience within the industry segment as well as within the industry as a whole; (c) strength and diversity of management, either in place or scheduled for recruitment; (d) capital requirements and anticipated availability of required funds, to be provided by our company or from operations, through the sale of additional securities, through joint ventures or similar arrangements or from other sources; (e) the cost of participation by our company as compared to the perceived tangible and intangible values and potentials; (f) the extent to which the business opportunity can be advanced; (g) the accessibility of required management expertise, personnel, raw materials, services, professional assistance and other required items; and (h) other relevant factors.
In applying the foregoing criteria, no one of which will be controlling, management will attempt to analyze all factors and circumstances and make a determination based upon reasonable investigative measures and available data. Potentially available business opportunities may occur in many different industries, and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex. Due to our limited capital available for investigation, we may not discover or adequately evaluate adverse facts about the opportunity to be acquired.
In implementing a structure for a particular business acquisition, we may become a party to a merger, consolidation, reorganization, joint venture, or licensing agreement with
11
another entity. We also may acquire stock or assets of an existing business. On the consummation of a transaction it is probable that the present management and shareholders of the company will no longer be in control of the company. In addition, our officers and directors, as part of the terms of the acquisition transaction, likely will be required to resign and be replaced by one or more new officers and directors without a vote of our shareholders.
It is anticipated that any securities issued in any such reorganization would be issued in reliance upon exemption from registration under applicable federal and state securities laws. In some circumstances, however, as a negotiated element of a transaction, we may agree to register all or a part of such securities immediately after the transaction is consummated or at specified times thereafter. The issuance of substantial additional securities and their potential sale into any trading market which may develop in our securities may have a depressive effect on that market.
While the actual terms of a transaction to which we may be a party cannot be predicted, it may be expected that the parties to the business transaction will find it desirable to avoid the creation of a taxable event and thereby structure the acquisition as a “tax-free” reorganization under Sections 351 or 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
With respect to any merger or acquisition, negotiations with target company management are expected to focus on the percentage of the Company which the target company shareholders would acquire in exchange for all of their shareholdings in the target company. Depending upon, among other things, the target company’s assets and liabilities, the Company’s shareholders will in all likelihood hold a substantially lesser percentage ownership interest in the Company following any merger or acquisition. The percentage ownership may be subject to significant reduction in the event the Company acquires a target company with substantial assets. Any merger or acquisition effected by the Company can be expected to have a significant dilutive effect on the percentage of shares held by the Company’s shareholders at such time.
The Company will participate in a business opportunity only after the negotiation and execution of appropriate agreements. Although the terms of such agreements cannot be predicted, generally such agreements will require certain representations and warranties of the parties thereto, will specify certain events of default, will detail the terms of closing and the conditions which must be satisfied by the parties prior to and after such closing, will outline the manner of bearing costs, including costs associated with the Company’s attorneys and accountants, and will include miscellaneous other terms.
We are presently subject to all of the reporting requirements included in the Exchange Act. Included in these requirements is the duty of the Company to file audited financial statements as part of its Form 8-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission upon consummation of a merger or acquisition, as well as the Company’s audited financial statements included in its annual report on Form 10-K. If such audited financial statements are not available at closing, or within time parameters necessary to insure the Company’s compliance with the requirements of the Exchange Act, or if the audited financial statements provided do not conform to the representations made by the target company, the closing documents may provide that the proposed transaction will be voidable at the discretion of the present management of the Company.
12
It is anticipated that the investigation of specific business opportunities and the negotiation, drafting and execution of relevant agreements, disclosure documents and other instruments will require substantial management time and attention and substantial cost for accountants, attorneys and others. If a decision is made not to participate in a specific business opportunity, the costs theretofore incurred in the related investigation would not be recoverable. Furthermore, even if an agreement is reached for the participation in a specific business opportunity, the failure to consummate that transaction may result in the loss to the Registrant of the related costs incurred.
Our Company, based on our proposed business activities, is a “blank check” company. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) defines those companies as “any development stage company that is issuing a penny stock, within the meaning of Section 3 (a)(51) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and that has no specific business plan or purpose, or has indicated that its business plan is to merge with an unidentified company or companies.” Under SEC Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Company also qualifies as a “shell company,” because it has no or nominal assets (other than cash) and no or nominal operations. Many states have enacted statutes, rules and regulations limiting the sale of securities of “blank check” companies in their respective jurisdictions. Management does not intend to undertake any efforts to cause a market to develop in our securities, either debt or equity, until we have successfully concluded a business combination. The Company intends to comply with the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for so long as we are subject to those requirements.
Results of Operation
For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, operating expenses were $65,916. We had a loss from operations in the amount of $65,916. The net loss during such period was $69,800. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, operating expenses were $15,101. We had a loss from operations in the amount of $15,101. The net loss during such period was $15,765. A significant percentage of our net loss is attributed to professional services, as well as, general and administrative expenses in connection with our reporting requirements as a public company.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We are in the development stage and have no revenue or business operations. Our balance sheet as of September 30, 2008, reflects cash of $3,246, which represents 100% of the Company’s total assets.
Over the next 12 months, we will attempt to acquire other assets or business operations that will maximize shareholder value. No specific assets or businesses have been definitively identified and there is no certainty that any such assets or business will be identified or any transactions will be consummated.
We expect that we will need to raise funds in order to effectuate our business plans. We intend initially to seek additional investors to purchase our stock to provide us with working capital to fund our operations. Thereafter, we will seek to establish or acquire businesses or assets with additional funds raised either via the issuance of shares or debt. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to us. We may
13
seek to raise the required capital by other means. We may have to issue debt or equity or enter into a strategic arrangement with a third party. We currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with any person to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources. Since we have no such arrangements or plans currently in effect, our inability to raise funds will have a severe negative impact on our ability to remain a viable company. In pursuing the foregoing goals, we may seek to expand or change the composition of the Board or make changes to our current capital structure, including issuing additional shares or debt and adopting a stock option plan.
We do not expect to generate any revenues over the next twelve months. Our principal business objective for the next 12 months will be to seek, investigate and, if such investigation warrants, engage in a business combination with a private entity whose business presents an opportunity for our shareholders.
Going Concern Consideration
The Company is a development stage company and has not commenced planned principal operations. The Company had no revenues and incurred a net loss of $69,800 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and a net loss of $152,166 for the period January 10, 2006 (inception) to September 30, 2008. In addition, the Company had a working capital deficit of $108,801 at September 30, 2008. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
There can be no assurance that sufficient funds will be generated during the next year or thereafter from operations or that funds will be available from external sources such as debt or equity financings or other potential sources. The lack of additional capital could force the Company to curtail or cease operations and would, therefore, have a material adverse effect on its business. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any such required funds, if available, will be available on attractive terms or that they will not have a significant dilutive effect on the Company’s existing stockholders.
