FARALLON, INC.
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2010
NOTE A—BUSINESS ACTIVITY
Business Activity—Farrallon, Inc. (the "Company”) was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on November 13, 2007 as a corporation. The Company’s objective is to acquire or merge with a target business or company in a business combination.
NOTE B—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation—The financial statements included herein were prepared under the accrual basis of accounting.
Cash and Cash Equivalents—For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Management’s Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The financial statements above reflect all of the costs of doing business.
Revenue Recognition—The Company’s policy is to recognize income when it is earned.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)—The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income”, which establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements. There were no items of comprehensive income (loss) applicable to the Company during the period covered in the financial statements.
Net Income per Common Share—Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 128 requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) with a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the EPS computations. Basic earnings per share amounts are based on the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding. If applicable, diluted earnings per share would assume the conversion, exercise or issuance of all potential common stock instruments such as options, warrants and convertible securities, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share. Accordingly, this presentation has been adopted for the period presented. There were no adjustments required to net income for the period presented in the computation of diluted earnings per share.
Deferred Taxes—Income taxes are provided in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (SFAS No. 109), “Accounting for Income Taxes.” A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss-carry forwards.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that, some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effect of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments—The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash, accounts receivable and payable approximate fair value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.
NOTE B—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)
Accounts Receivable—Accounts deemed uncollectible are written off in the year they become uncollectible. As of March 31, 2010, the balance in Accounts Receivable was $0.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets—The Company evaluates the recoverability of its fixed assets and other assets in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144’). SFAS 144 requires recognition of impairment of long-lived assets in the event the net book value of such assets exceeds its expected cash flows, it is considered to be impaired and is written down to fair value, which is determined based on either discounted future cash flows or appraised values. The Company adopted the statement on inception. No impairments of these types of assets were recognized as of March 31, 2010.
Going Concern— The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has a deficit accumulated during the development stage of $24,062, used cash from operations of $21,960 since its inception, and has a negative working capital of $23,962 at March 31, 2010.
The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is also dependent on its ability to find a suitable target company and enter into a possible reverse merger with such company. Management’s plan includes obtaining additional funds by equity financing through a reverse merger transaction and/or related party advances; however there is no assurance of additional funding being available. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might arise as a result of this uncertainty.
Stock-Based Compensation—The Company accounts for stock-based compensation using the fair value method of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123R. This Statement requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award—the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). No compensation cost is recognized for equity instruments for which employees do not render the requisite service.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements— In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued its final Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles a Replacement of FASB Statement No. 162”. SFAS No. 168 made the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the Codification) the single source of U.S. GAAP used by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements, except for rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under authority of federal securities laws, which are sources of authoritative accounting guidance for SEC registrants. The Codification is meant to simplify user access to all authoritative accounting guidance by reorganizing U.S. GAAP pronouncements into roughly 90 accounting topics within a consistent structure; its purpose is not to create new accounting and reporting guidance. The Codification supersedes all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards and was effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2009. Following SFAS No. 168, the Board will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions, or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts; instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates (ASU). The FASB will not consider ASUs as authoritative in their own right; these updates will serve only to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance, and provide the bases for conclusions on the change(s) in the Codification.
NOTE B—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
Recent Accounting Pronouncements (cont’d)
In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-05 which includes amendments to Subtopic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures—Overall”. The update provides clarification that in circumstances, in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the techniques provided for in this update. The amendments in this ASU clarify that a reporting entity is not required to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of the liability and also clarifies that both a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability at the measurement date and the quoted price for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market when no adjustments to the quoted price of the asset are required are Level 1 fair value measurements. The guidance provided in this ASU is effective for the first reporting period, including interim periods, beginning after issuance. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In September 2009, the FASB has published ASU No. 2009-12, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) - Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent)”. This ASU amends Subtopic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures – Overall”, to permit a reporting entity to measure the fair value of certain investments on the basis of the net asset value per share of the investment (or its equivalent). This ASU also requires new disclosures, by major category of investments including the attributes of investments within the scope of this amendment to the Codification. The guidance in this Update is effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2009. Early application is permitted. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In October 2009, the FASB has published ASU 2009-13, “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)-Multiple Deliverable Revenue Arrangements”, which addresses the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services (deliverables) separately rather than as a combined unit. Specifically, this guidance amends the criteria in Subtopic 605-25, “Revenue Recognition-Multiple-Element Arrangements”, for separating consideration in multiple-deliverable arrangements. This guidance establishes a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable, which is based on: (a) vendor-specific objective evidence; (b) third-party evidence; or (c) estimates. This guidance also eliminates the residual method of allocation and requires that arrangement consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method and also requires expanded disclosures. The guidance in this update is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
NOTE C—SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION
Supplemental disclosures of cash flow information for the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 is summarized as follows:
Cash paid during the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 for interest and income taxes:
| | 2010 | | | 2009 | |
| | | | | | |
Income Taxes | | $ | — | | | $ | — | |
Interest | | $ | — | | | $ | — | |
NOTE D—SEGMENT REPORTING
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.” This statement requires companies to report information about operating segments in interim and annual financial statements. It also requires segment disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. The Company determined that it did not have any separately reportable operating segments as of March 31, 2010.
NOTE E—INCOME TAXES
Due to the operating loss and the inability to recognize an income tax benefit, there is no provision for current or deferred federal or state income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amount used for federal and state income tax purposes.
The Company’s total deferred tax asset, calculated using federal and state effective tax rates, as of December 31, 2009 is as follows:
Total Deferred Tax Asset | | $ | (8,000 | ) |
Valuation Allowance | | | 8,000 | |
Net Deferred Tax Asset | | $ | - | |
The reconciliation of income taxes computed at the federal statutory income tax rate to total income taxes as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 is as follows:
| | 2009 | | | 2008 | |
Income tax computed at the federal statutory rate | | | 34.0 | % | | | 34.0 | % |
State income tax, net of federal tax benefit | | | 0.0 | % | | | 0.0 | % |
Total | | | 34.0 | % | | | 34.0 | % |
Valuation allowance | | | -34.0 | % | | | -34.0 | % |
Total deferred tax asset | | | 0.0 | % | | | 0.0 | % |
NOTE E—INCOME TAXES (CONT’D)
Because of the Company’s lack of earnings history, the deferred tax asset has been fully offset by a valuation allowance. The valuation allowance increased (decreased) by approximately $2,400 and $4,700 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.
As of December 31, 2009, the Company had a federal and state net operating loss carry forward in the amount of approximately $23,591, which expires in the year 2029.
NOTE F—CAPITAL STOCK
The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 common shares at $.0001 par value per share.
As of March 31, 2010, the Company has the following shares of common stock issued:
DYP Enterprises, LLC | | | 550,000 | |
Garvin Investments, LLC | | | 150,000 | |
Garvin Strategic Capital | | | 300,000 | |
The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 preferred shares at $.0001 par value per share. As of March 31, 2010 the Company had not issued any preferred shares.
NOTE G – DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY
The Company is in the development stage as of March 31, 2010 and to date has had no significant operations. Recovery of the Company’s assets is dependent on future events, the outcome of which is indeterminable. In addition, successful completion of the Company’s development program and its transition, ultimately, to attaining profitable operations is dependent upon obtaining adequate financing to fulfill its development activities and achieving a level of sales adequate to support the Company’s cost structure.
NOTE H—SHAREHOLDER LOAN/RELATED PARTY
The Company has signed a promissory note with two related parties. The notes are demand notes bearing interest at 8% per annum. The outstanding balance as of March 31, 2010 was $21,937. The accrued interest not paid as of March 31, 2010 is $2,102, respectively.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.
Overview.
Farrallon, Inc. (“we”, “us” or the “Company”) was organized in the State of Nevada on November 13, 2007. We are a developmental stage company and have not generated any revenues to date. We were organized to serve as a vehicle for a business combination through a capital stock exchange, merger, reverse acquisition, asset acquisition or other similar business combination (a “Business Combination”) with an operating or development stage business (the “Target Business”) which desires to utilize our status as a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). We are in the process of identifying and evaluating targets for a Business Combination. We are not presently engaged in, and will not engage in, any substantive commercial business operations unless and until we consummate a Business Combination.
Our management has broad discretion with respect to identifying and selecting a prospective Target Business. We have not established any specific attributes or criteria (financial or otherwise) for prospective Target Businesses. Our sole officer and director has never served as an officer or director of a development stage public company with the business purpose of acquiring a Target Business. Accordingly, he may not successfully identify a Target Business or conclude a Business Combination.
Any entity with which we may enter into a Business Combination is subject to numerous risks in connection with its operations. To the extent we affect a Business Combination with a financially unstable company or an entity in its early stage of development or growth, including entities without established records of sales or earnings, we may be affected by numerous risks inherent in the business and operations of financially unstable and early stage or potential emerging growth companies. If we consummate a Business Combination with a foreign entity, we will be subject to all of the risks attendant to foreign operations. Although our management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular Target Business, we cannot assure you that we will properly ascertain or assess all significant risk factors.
We expect that in connection with any Business Combination, we will issue a significant number of shares of our common stock (equal to at least 80% of the total number of shares outstanding after giving effect to the transaction and likely a significantly higher percentage) in order to ensure that the Business Combination qualifies as a tax-free transaction under federal tax laws. The issuance of additional shares of our capital stock will:
| · | significantly reduce the equity interest of our stockholders prior to the transaction; and |
| · | cause a change in control of our Company and likely result in the resignation or removal of one or more of our present officers and directors. |
Our management anticipates that the Company will affect only one Business Combination, due primarily to our financial resources and the dilution of interest for present and prospective stockholders, which is likely to occur as a result of our management's plan to offer a controlling interest to a Target Business in order to achieve a tax-free reorganization. This lack of diversification should be considered a substantial risk in investing in us because it will not permit us to offset potential losses from one venture against potential gains from another.
Liquidity and Capital Resources.
At March 31, 2010, we had a de minimus amount of cash on hand. Our existing cash reserves will not be sufficient to cover our operating costs and expenses over the next twelve months which we expect will comprise costs and expenses in connection with the preparation and filing of reports under the Securities Exchange Act, the identification and evaluation of targets and, possibly, in connection with consummating a Business Combination, and we will require funds therefor.
To date, we have funded our operations through loans from our stockholders and, as of March 31, 2010, we had borrowed an aggregate of $21,937 from them. Our stockholders have advised us that they expect to fund additional costs and expenses that we will incur through loans or further investment in the Company, as and when necessary.
We cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will have sufficient capital resources to identify a suitable Target Business, to conduct effective due diligence as to any Target Business or to consummate a Business Combination. As a result of our negative working capital, our losses since inception, and failure to generate revenues from operations, our financial statements include a note in which our auditor has expressed doubt about our ability to continue as a "going concern."
Results of Operations.
Since our inception, we have not generated any revenues. We reported a net loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 2010 of $33 and a net loss since inception of $24,062. The Company has used cash from operations of $21,960 since its inception, and has a negative working capital of $23,962 at March 31, 2010. Our expenses have consisted mainly of professional fees and interest expense.
We do not expect to engage in any substantive activities unless and until such time as we enter into a Business Combination, if ever. We cannot provide investors with any assessment as to the nature of a Target Business’s operations or speculate as to the status of its products or operations, whether at the time of the Business Combination it will be generating revenues or its future prospects.
