On March 26, 2010 the Company entered into a Profit Sharing Agreement or Direct Marketing Affiliates Project (DMAP) with American Charter & Marketing LLC (ACM) and Delta Group Investments Limited (DGI), with the primary focus of undertaking a direct mail marketing campaign designed to sell nutraceutical products developed and manufactured by the Company. The Company will act as Managing Affiliate. DGI will provide $300,000 in the form of a loan, as starting capital for the project (see Note 5), which is guaranteed by the Company. The financial results of the DMAP are consolidated into these financial statements. The net profits of the DMAP project will be shared with 25% going to the Company, 25% to DGI, 25% to ACM and 25% as a return on the initial loan. The DMAP project is to be in effect for three (3) years from date of execution. The DMAP agreement contains an option to convert profits into shares of the Company’s restricted common stock. Certain administrative expenses incurred by the Company were reimbursed by the DMAP and are classified on the Consolidated Statement of Operations as administrative e xpenses. The amount of reimbursed expenses was approximately $2,000 for the three months ending September 30, 2010 and $14,000 for the nine months ending September 30, 2010. This agreement is accounted for in accordance with Topic 525.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation
The accompanying consolidated unaudited interim financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regu lation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited interim financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Unaudited interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2009 and notes thereto contained in the information as part of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 15, 2010.
The consolidated financial statements include all accounts of TNS as of September 30, 2010 and 2009 and for the interim periods then ended; and all accounts of DMAP as of September 30, 2010 and for the period from March 26, 2010 (inception) through September 30, 2010. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made in our fiscal 2009 financial statements to conform to current year’s presentation of financial information.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fiscal year end
- 8 -
The Company elected July 31 as its initial fiscal year end date upon its formation. On November 11, 2008, the Company changed its fiscal year end date from July 31 to December 31.
Cash equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Accounts receivable
Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of allowance for doubtful accounts. Allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts receivable. The Company determines the allowance based on historical write-off experience, customer specific facts and economic conditions. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $1,138 at September 3 0, 2010 and $0 at December 31, 2009. Bad debt expense is included in general and administrative expenses, if any.
Outstanding account balances are reviewed individually for collectability. Account balances are charged off against allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.
The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure to its customers.
Inventory
The Company values its inventory, consisting of purchased raw materials and finished goods, at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on the First-in and First-out (“FIFO”) method. The Company regularly reviews its inventory on hand and, when necessary, records a provision for excess or obsolete inventory based primarily on current selling price. The Company determined that there was no inventory obsolescence as of September 30, 2010 or December 31, 2009.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation of property and equipment is computed by the straight-line method (after taking into account their respective estimated residual values) over the assets estimated useful lives of three (3) or five (5) years. Upon sale or retirement of property and equipment, the related cos t and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in statements of operations.
Patents acquired and patents pending
The Company has adopted the guidelines as set out in subtopic 350-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Subtopic 350-30”) for patents. Under the requirements as set out in Subtopic 350-30, the Company amortizes the costs of acquired patents over their remaining legal lives, estimated useful lives, or the term of the contract, whichever is shorter. All internally developed process costs incurred to the point when a patent application is to be filed are expensed as incurred and classified as research and development costs. Patent application costs, generally legal costs, thereafter incurred, are capitalized pending disp osition of the individual patent application, and are subsequently either amortized based on the initial patent life granted, generally fifteen (15) to twenty (20) years for domestic patents and five (5) to twenty (20) years for foreign patents, or expensed if the patent application is rejected. The costs of defending and maintaining patents are expensed as incurred. Upon becoming fully amortized, the related cost and accumulated amortization are removed from the accounts.
Impairment of long-lived assets
The Company follows paragraph 360-10-35-17 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for its long-lived assets. The Company’s long-lived assets, which include property and equipment, intangible assets and patents pending are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances ind icate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
The Company assesses the recoverability of its long-lived assets by comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flows associated with the related long-lived asset or group of long-lived assets over their remaining estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amounts. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of those assets. Fair value is generally determined using the asset’s expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable. If long-lived assets are determined to be recoverable, but the newly determined remaining estimated useful lives are shorter than originally estimated, the net book values of the long-lived assets are depreciated over the newly determined remaining estimated useful lives. The Company determined that there were no impairments of long-lived assets as of September 30, 2010 or December 31, 2009.

Lease receivable
The Company follows paragraph 840-30-35-23 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification and amortizes the unearned income and initial direct costs on a direct financing lease to income over the term of the lease to produce a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment in the lease.
Discount on convertible notes payable
The Company follows subtopic 470-20 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Subtopic 470-20”) “Debt with Conversion and Other Options,” when accounting for convertible notes payable. The Company allocates the proceeds received between convertible notes payable and warrants, if applicable. The resulting warrants discount from the face amount of the convertible notes payable is amortized using the effective interest method over the life of the debt instruments. After allocating a portion of the proceeds to the warrants, the effective conversion price of the convertible notes payable can be determined. If the effective conversion price is lower than the market price at the date of issuance, a beneficial conversion feature needs to be recorded as a discount to the convertible notes payable. The beneficial conversion feature discount needs to be amortized using the effective interest method over the life of the debt in struments.
Fair value of financial instruments
The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and has adopted paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to mea sure fair value into three (3) broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:
| | |
Level 1 | | Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. |
| | |
Level 2 | | Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. |
| | |
Level 3 | | Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data. |
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued officer’s compensation, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. The Company’s lease receivable, note payable and convertible notes payable approximate the fair value of such instruments based upon management’s best estimate of interest rates that would be available to the Company for similar financial arrangements at September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
The Company does not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring or a non-recurring basis, consequently, the Company did not have any fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value at September 30, 2010 or December 31, 2009, nor gains or losses are reported in the statement of operations that are attributable to the change in unrealized gains or losses relating to those assets and liabilities still held at the reporting date for the interim periods ended September 30, 2010 or 2009.
Revenue recognition
The Company follows the guidance of paragraph 605-10-S99-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification fo r revenue recognition. The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the product has been shipped or the services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.
The Company recognizes its revenue from sales contracts with customers with revenues being generated upon the shipment of product. Persuasive evidence of an arrangement is demonstrated via invoice, product delivery is evidenced by warehouse shipping log as well as a signed bill of lading from the trucking company or third party carrier and title transfers upon shipment, based on free on board (“FOB”) warehouse; the sales price to the customer is fixed upon acceptance of the purchase order and there is no separate sales rebate, discount, or volume incentive.

Shipping and handling costs
The Company accounts for shipping and handling fees in accordance with paragraph 605-45-45-19 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. While amounts charged to customers for shipping products are included in revenues, the related costs are classified in cost of goods sold as incurred.
Advertising costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.
Research and development
The Company follows paragraph 730-10-25-1 and 730-20-25-11 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for research and development costs. Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. Research and development costs consist primarily of remuneration for research and development staff, depreciation and maintenance expenses of research and development equipment, material and testing costs for research and development as well as research and development arrangements with unrel ated third party research and development institutions. Those research and development arrangements usually involve one specific research and development project of the development of a specific drug compound. Often times, the Company makes non-refundable advances upon signing of these arrangements. The Company adopted paragraph 730-20-25-13 and 730-20-35-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for those non-refundable advances. Non-refundable advance payments for goods or services that will be used or rendered for future research and development activities are deferred and capitalized. Such amounts are recognized as an expense as the related goods are delivered or the related services are performed. Management continues to evaluate whether the Company expect the goods to be delivered or services to be rendered. If the management does not expect the goods to be delivered or services to be rendered, the capitalized advance payment are charged to expense.
Foreign currency transactions
The Company applies the guidelines as set out in Section 830-20-35 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Section 830-20-35”) for foreign currency transactions. Pursuant to Section 830-20-35 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, foreign currency transactions are transactions denominated in currencies other than U.S. Dollar, the Company’s functional and reporting currency. Foreign currency transactions may produce receivables or payables that are fixed in terms of the amount of foreign currency that will be received or paid. A change in exchange rates between the functional currency and the currency in which a transaction is denominated increases or decreases the expected amount of functional currency cash flows upon settlement of the transac tion. That increase or decrease in expected functional currency cash flows is a foreign currency transaction gain or loss that generally shall be included in determining net income for the period in which the exchange rate changes. Likewise, a transaction gain or loss (measured from the transaction date or the most recent intervening balance sheet date, whichever is later) realized upon settlement of a foreign currency transaction generally shall be included in determining net income for the period in which the transaction is settled.
Equity instruments issued to parties other than employees for acquiring goods or services
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to parties other than employees for acquiring goods or services under guidance of section 505-50-30 of the FASB Accounting Standard s Codification. Pursuant to paragraph 718-10-30-6 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, all transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date used to determine the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the performance is complete or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur.
The fair value of each option/warrant award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing valuation model. The ranges of assumptions for stock options and warrants are as follows:
- 11 -
| |
· | The expected life of options/warrants granted is derived from paragraph 718-10-S99-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification and represents the period of time the options are expected to be outstanding. |
| |
· | The expected volatility is based on a combination of the historical volatility of comparable companies’ stock over the contractual life of the options. |
| |
· | The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for periods within the contractual life of the option/warrant. |
| |
· | The expected dividend yield is based on the Company’s current dividend yield as the best estimate of projected dividend yield for periods within the contractual life of the option. |
The Company’s policy is to recognize compensation cost for awards with only service conditions and a graded vesting schedule on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. Additionally, the Company’s policy is to issue new shares of common stock to satisfy stock option/warrant exercises.
Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under Section 740-10-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company adopted section 740-10-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Section 740-10-25 148;). Section 740-10-25 addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under Section 740-10-25, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent (50%) likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Section 740-10-25 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. The Company had no material adjustments to its liabilities for unrecognized income tax benefits according to the provisions of Section 740-10-25.
Net income (loss) per common share
Net income (loss) per common share is computed pursuant to paragraph of 260-10-45-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially outstanding shares of common stock during the period to reflect the potential dilution.
The following table shows the weighted-average number of potentially outstanding dilutive shares excluded from the diluted net loss per share calculation for the interim periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 as they were anti-dilutive.

Commitments and contingencies
The Company follows subtopic 450-20 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report accounting for contingencies. Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated.
Cash flows reporting
The Company adopted paragraph 230-10-45-24 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for cash flows reporting, classifies cash receipts and payments according to whether they stem from operating, investing, or financing activities and provides definitions of each category, and uses the indirect or reconciliation method (“Indirect method”) as defined by paragraph 230-10-45-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report net cash flow from operating activities by adjusting net income to reconcile it to net cash flow from operating activities by removing the effects of (a) all deferrals of past operating cash receipts and payments and all accruals of expected future operating cash receipts and payments and (b) all items that are included in net income that do not affect operating cash receipts and payments. The Company reports the reporting
- 13 -
currency equivalent of foreign currency cash flows, using the current exchange rate at the time of the cash flows and the effect of exchange rate changes on cash held in foreign currencies is reported as a separate item in the reconciliation of beginning and ending balances of cash and cash equivalents and separately provides information about investing and financing activities not resulting in cash receipts or payments in the period pursuant to paragraph 830-230-45-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.
Subsequent events
The Company follows the guidance in Section 855-10-50 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the disclosure of subsequent events. The Company will evaluate subsequent events through the date when the financial statements are issued. Pursuant to ASU 2010-09 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, the Company as an SEC filer considers its financial statements issued when they are widely distributed to users, such as through filing them on EDGAR.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
In January 2010, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-01 “Equity Topic 505 – Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Ca sh”, which clarify that the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a potential limitation on the total amount of cash that all shareholders can elect to receive in the aggregate is considered a share issuance that is reflected in EPS prospectively and is not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260 (Equity and Earnings Per Share (“EPS”)). Those distributions should be accounted for and included in EPS calculations in accordance with paragraphs 480-10-25-14 and 260-10-45-45 through 45-47 of the FASB Accounting Standards codification. The amendments in this Update also provide a technical correction to the Accounting Standards Codification. The correction moves guidance that was previously included in the Overview and Background Section to the definition of a stock dividend in the Master Glossary. That guidance indicates that a stock dividend takes nothing from the property of the cor poration and adds nothing to the interests of the stockholders. It also indicates that the proportional interest of each shareholder remains the same, and is a key factor to consider in determining whether a distribution is a stock dividend. The amendments in this Update are effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and should be applied on a retrospective basis.
In January 2010, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-02 “Consolidation Topic 810 – Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary – a Scope Clarification”, which provides amendments to Subtopic 810-10 and related guidance within U.S. GAAP to clarify that the scope of the decrease in ownership provisions of the Subtopic and related guidance applies to the following:
1.
A subsidiary or group of assets that is a business or nonprofit activity
2.
A subsidiary that is a business or nonprofit activity that is transferred to an equity method investee or joint venture
3.
An exchange of a group of assets that constitutes a business or nonprofit activity for a noncontrolling interest in an entity (including an equity method investee or joint venture).
The amendments i n this Update also clarify that the decrease in ownership guidance in Subtopic 810-10 does not apply to the following transactions even if they involve businesses:
1.
Sales of in substance real estate. Entities should apply the sale of real estate guidance in Subtopics 360-20 (Property, Plant, and Equipment) and 976-605 (Retail/Land) to such transactions.
2.
Conveyances of oil and gas mineral rights. Entities should apply the mineral property conveyance and related transactions guidance in Subtopic 932-360 (Oil and Gas-Property, Plant, and Equipment) to such transactions.
If a decrease in ownership occurs in a subsidiary that is not a business or nonprofit activity, an entity first needs to consider whether the substance of the transaction causing the decrease in ownership is addressed in other U.S. GAAP, such as transfers of financial assets, revenue recognition, exchanges of nonmonetary assets, sales of in substance real estate, or conveyances of oil and gas mineral rights, and apply that guidance as applicable. If no other guidance exists, an entity should apply the guidance in Subtopic 810-10. The amendments in this Update are effective beginning in the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009.
In January 2010, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-06 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 8 20) Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements”, which provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10 that require new disclosures as follows:
1.
Transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2. A reporting entity should disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers.
- 14 -
2.
Activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. In the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), a reporting entity should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements (that is, on a gross basis rather than as one net number).
This Update provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10 that clarify existing disclosures as follows:
1.
Level of disaggregation. A reporting entity should provide fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities. A class is often a subset of ass ets or liabilities within a line item in the statement of financial position. A reporting entity needs to use judgment in determining the appropriate classes of assets and liabilities.
2.
Disclosures about inputs and valuation techniques. A reporting entity should provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. Those disclosures are required for fair value measurements that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3.
This Update also includes conforming amendments to the guidance on employers' disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets (Subtopic 715-20). The conforming amendments to Subtopic 715-20 change the termi nology from major categories of assets to classes of assets and provide a cross reference to the guidance in Subtopic 820-10 on how to determine appropriate classes to present fair value disclosures. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years.
In February 2010, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-09 “Subsequent Events (Topic 855) Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements”, which provides amendments to Subtopic 855-10 as follows:
1.
An entity that either (a) is an SEC filer or(b) is a conduit bond obligor for conduit debt securities that are traded in a public market (a domestic or foreign stock exchange or an over-the-counter market, including local or regional markets) is required to evaluate subsequent events through the date that the financial statements are issued. If an entity meets neither of those criteria, then it should evaluate subsequent events through the date the financial statements are available to be issued.
2.
An entity that is an SEC filer is not required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This change allevi ates potential conflicts between Subtopic 855-10 and the SEC's requirements.
3.
The scope of the reissuance disclosure requirements is refined to include revised financial statements only. The term revised financial statements is added to the glossary of Topic 855. Revised financial statements include financial statements revised either as a result of correction of an error or retrospective application of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
All of the amendments in this Update are effective upon issuance of the final Update, except for the use of the issued date for conduit debt obligors. That amendment is effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2010.
In April 2010, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-17 “Revenue Recognition — Milestone Method (Topic 605) Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition”, which provides guidance on the criteria that should be met for determining whether the milestone method of revenue recognition is appropriate. A vendor can recognize consideration that is contingent upon achievement of a milestone in its entirety as revenue in the period in which the milestone is achieved only if the milestone meets all criteria to be considered substantive.
Determining whether a milestone is substantive is a matter of judgment made at the inception of the arrangement. The following criteria must be met for a milestone to be considered substantive. The consideration earned by achieving the milestone should:
1.
Be commensurate with either of the following:

A milestone should be considered substantive in its entirety. An individual milestone may not be bifurcated. An arrangement may include more than one milestone, and each milestone should be evaluated separately to determine whether the milestone is substantive. Accordingly, an arrangement may contain both substantive and nonsubstantive milestones.

A vendor's decision to use the milestone method of revenue recognition for transactions within the scope of the amendments in this Update is a policy election. Other proportional revenue recognition methods also may be applied as long as the application of those other methods does not result in the recognition of consideration in its entirety in the period the milestone is achieved.
A vendor that is affected by the amendments in this Update is required to provide all of the following disclosures:
1.
A description of the overall arrangement
2.
A description of each milestone and related contingent consideration
3.
A determination of whether each milestone is considered substantive
4.
The factors that the entity considered in determining whether the milestone or milestones are substantive
5.
The amount of consideration recognized during the period for the milestone or milestones.
The amendments in this Update are effective on a prospective basis for milestones achieved in fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. If a vendor elects early adoption and the period of adoption is not the beginning of the entity's fiscal year, the entity should apply the amendments retrospectively from the beginning of the year of adoption. Additionally, a vendor electing early adoption should disclose the following information at a minimum for all previously reported interim periods in the fiscal year of adoption:
1.
Revenue
2.
Income before income taxes
3.
Net income
4.
Earnings per share
5.
The effect of the change for the captions presented.
A vendor may elect, but is not required, to adopt the amendments in this Update retrospectively for all prior periods.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $1,736,801 at September 30, 2010 and had a net loss of $922,177 and net cash used in operating activities of $404,738 for the interim period then ended, respectively.
While the Company is attempting to generate sufficient revenues, the Company’s cash position may not be sufficient to support the Company’s daily operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to generate sufficient revenues provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to generate revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to generate sufficient revenues.
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

These forward-looking statements include statements of our plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions, which are subject to change based on various important factors (some of which are beyond the Company's control). The following factors, in addition to others not listed, could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in forward looking statements: the strength of the domestic and local economies in which the Company conducts operations, the impact of current uncertainties in global economic conditions and the ongoing financial crisis affecting the domestic and foreign banking system and financial markets, including the impact on our suppliers and customers, changes in client needs and consumer spending habits, the impact of competition and technological change on our company, our ability to manage its growth effectively, including its ability to successfully integrate any business which it might acquire, and currency fluctuations.

We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes thereto appearing in Part I, Item 1.
Overview of Current Operations
Total Nutraceutical Solutions is an emerging nutraceutical company with a focus on discovering, formulating and marketing products composed primarily of organic natural mushrooms that contain bioactive nutrients for potenti al health benefits. Mushroom dietary supplements have the nutritional potential to provide multiple health benefits for humans, including providing antioxidants, reducing inflammation, nutritionally supporting cellular and immune system function, promoting healthy joints, increasing stamina, and reducing stress and anxiety. We develop production and analytic technologies for food and nutritional supplements composed primarily of mushrooms. In addition to preventative healthcare formulations and nutritional approaches to a wide variety of human conditions and illnesses, we also develop and acquire nutritional tools and products in the fields of animal husbandry and livestock feeds.
We have developed mushroom based nutraceutical dietary supplement products that are made entirely of naturally occurring dietary substances which are manufactured under contract by a third party, Columbia Nutritio nal Services, Inc.. We currently market three natural organic nutraceutical mushroom dietary supplement products, ImmuSANO and GlucoSANO for human consumption and EquiSANO for the equine market. These naturally occurring dietary substances have not been chemically altered, and we believe these products have both health benefits and mass appeal to people wanting natural and non-toxic nutritional-based healthcare. During the quarter ending June 30, 2010 we initiated sales of a new nutricosmetic product, Gröh which has been designed to nutritionally support hair follicles and nail beds.
We market our products directly to the consumer utilizing network marketing programs, including our Direct Marketing Affiliates Project described below, direct mail order, internet marketing, and commission sales people. We sell directly to consumers our own proprietary formulations of over the counter mushroom based nutraceutical and nutricosmetic products produced by an outside contract manufacturer.
In March 2010 we entered into a Profit Sharing Agreement with American Charter Marketing , Inc. (ACM) and Delta Group Investments Limited under which we agreed to form an association referred to as the Direct Marketing Affiliates Project (DMAP). Pursuant to the agreement the parties agree to work together to undertake a direct mail campaign designed to sell certain TNS nutraceutical products for a period of three years, with the day to day management and control of business operations of the association being vested in TNS as the managing affiliate.
One of the affiliates, Delta Group Investments Limited made an initial contribution to the association in the form of a $300,000 loan wit h interest at 5% per annum. This loan shall be repaid by the association through allocation of 25% of net profits from the marketing and sale of new TNS nutraceutical products going to repayment of the loan and 25% of net profits going to each affiliate of the association. Once Delta Group has been repaid the loan with interest, the percentage of allocation shall be shifted so that TNS, ACM and Delta Group shall receive equal shares of net profits. Once Delta Group has been repaid the loan with interest and in addition has received $300,000 in net profit allocations, the percentage of allocation shall be shifted so that TNS and ACM shall each receive 45% of the net profits and Delta Group shall receive the remaining 10% of net profits. Allocation of net profits shall be done on a quarterly basis by the managing affiliate, TNS. Delta Group and ACM have the
- 23 -
option to convert their net profit allocations into shares of common stock of TNS and Delta Group has the option at any time to convert any portion of the loan principal and interest into TNS shares of common stock at $0.25 per share.
The marketing association can be terminated upon the expiration of the three year term, upon the election to terminate by all of the affiliates or upon 90 day prior notice from any of the affiliates. Upon termination the property and assets of the association and such cash shall be allocated first to the payment of creditors of the association, for the reserves for contingent or unforeseen liabilities of the association as deemed necessary by TNS as the managing a ffiliate, then to the repayment of affiliates to the extent of loans made to the association, and finally to the payment of affiliates in respect of their interest in the capital and the profits and losses of the association. If there are not sufficient funds at the time of the liquidation to repay in full the $300,000 loan from Delta Group plus accrued interest, TNS will be liable for the payment of any shortfall.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we had a net loss of $922,177 versus a $424,419 net loss for the same period last year. The increase in the net loss was attri butable to an increase in marketing and promotional expenses, and consulting fees as we continue to grow our business. Our total operating expenses increased from $442,780 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 to $911,389 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Total liabilities increased from $138,050 on December 31, 2009 to $626,954 on September 30, 2010. This increase was primarily due to the fact that we incurred debts in an aggregate principal amount of $550,000 at various rates of interest during the quarter ended March 31, 2010. See the Liquidity and Capital Resources section below.
Revenues
We generated $96,705 in revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to $39,863 in revenues for the same period last year. Our cost of goods sold was $39,644 for the qua rter resulting in a gross profit of $57,061 as compared to a gross profit of $14,557for the quarter ended September 30, 2009.
Going Concern
Our independent auditors have included an explanatory paragraph in their report on the accompanying financial statements regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements contain additional note disclosures describing the circumstances that lead to this disclosure by our independent auditors.
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 item s are not required by us at this time.
Significant changes in the number of employees
As of September 30, 2010, we did not have any employees. Our Chief Executive Officer, Marvin S. Hausman, M.D. and our Vice President for Sales and Marketing, Devin Andres each provides employee like services pursuant to consulting arrangements. As our operations expand, we anticipate the need to hire employees however, the exact number of employees that would be hired is not quantifiable at this time.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2010 we had cash of $61,047 compared to cash of $109,655 as of June 30, 2010 and $48,141 a s of December 31, 2009. We incurred debts in an aggregate principal amount of $550,000 at various rates of interest during the quarter ended March 31, 2010 of which $150,000 plus 6% interest matures on December 31, 2010. The rest of the debt matures as follows: $100,000 plus interest at 6% per annum matures on December 31, 2011 and $300,000 plus interest at 5% per annum matures in March 2013. The proceeds from this $300,000 convertible promissory note with Delta Group was transferred to the Direct Marketing Affiliates Project and is subject to the Profit Sharing Agreement described above under which the loan shall be repaid on a quarterly basis from net profits generated under the agreement, if any. The convertible promissory note matures in March 2013. If there are not sufficient funds at the time of the liquidation of the Direct Marketing Affiliates Project to repay in full the $300,000 loan from Delta Group plus accrued interest, TNS will be liable for the payment of an y shortfall. TNS loaned $50,000 at 6% interest per annum on January 15, 2010 to Gary Ballen and American Charter Marketing, Inc., one of the affiliates of the Direct Marketing Affiliates Project, which promissory note matures on September 30, 2010. On February 25, 2010, TNS also loaned an additional $12,500 to Gary Ballen and American Charter Marketing, Inc also at interest of 6% per annum with the promissory note maturing on June 30, 2010. To date these promissory notes have not been repaid, and management is currently negotiating terms for the repayment of the notes. Given that our CEO Dr. Hausman has been accruing his monthly consulting fee
- 24 -
sin ce June 2010 and other consultants to the company are similarly accruing their consulting fees, allowing us to conserve our operating cash. Management believes it has sufficient funds to remain operational through January 2011.
We anticipate that we will continue to generate losses during the remainder of this fiscal year and therefore, unless we are able to raise capital through equity private placements we may be unable to continue operations in the future. Additional working capital may be sought through notes payable to banks or related parties (officers, directors or stockholders), or from other available funding sources at market rates of interest, or a combination of these. The ability to raise necessary financing will depend on many factors, including the nature and prospects of any business to be acquired and the economic and market conditions prevailing at the time financing i s sought.
There can be no assurance that additional debt or equity capital will be available to us. We currently have no agreements, arrangements, or understandings with any person to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit, or any other sources.
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 or operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estim ates
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from the information provided in Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations", included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out by our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer who is also our principal financial and accounting officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of September 30, 2010. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the material weaknesses identified in our management report on internal controls and procedures contained in o ur Form 10-K, Item 9A filed on April 15, 2010 still exist, and therefore our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2010.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
As of the end of the quarter ended June 30, 2010, there have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2010, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our company’s internal control over financial reporting.
