Exhibit 99.1
Index to Financial Statements
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Board of Directors and Stockholders
Aurios Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Aurios Inc. as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Aurios Inc. at December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 9 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 9. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 1 |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Nature of Operations and Use of Estimates |
Nature of Corporation
Aurios Inc. (the “Company” or “we”) is a corporation which was formed under the laws of the State of Arizona on August 7, 2001. Its principal business activity is the marketing of vibration and motion control technology to the audio/video markets. The Company’s sales occur throughout the United States. The Company is a former wholly-owned subsidiary of True Gravity Enterprises Inc. (“TGE”). On December 31, 2007, the principal shareholder, who is also a director and officer of the Company, purchased all of the stock owned by TGE. Through June 30, 2007, TGE paid all Company expenses including payroll and vendors. It charged the Company $1,500 per month as a rent and management fee. Beginning June 30, 2007, the Company began paying its vendors, but continued to contract with TGE for rent and for certain services performed by TGE. On February 25, 2010, TGE sold substantially all of its assets to Advanced Vibration Technologies Inc., an Arizona corporation (“AVT”). Pursuant to a Management and Rental Agreement between AVT and the Company, the Company entered into an agreement to pay AVT $1,500 per month for rent and certain management services. This agreement expired on July 31, 2010. The Company no longer pays a management or rental fee.
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 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. Significant estimates are used when estimating the fair values of stock-based issuances, as well as the recoverability of inventory, and the collectability of accounts receivable. These are discussed in the respective notes to the financial statements.
RevenueRecognition
The Company derives its revenues primarily from the sale of vibration and motion control devices through sales from the Company’s website and its distributors. Revenues are recognized at the time the sale is completed and shipped. Once shipped, title to the products, as well as the risks and rewards of ownership, passes to the customers.
AdvertisingCosts
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred no advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For financial accounting purposes, cash and cash equivalents are considered to be all highly liquid investments purchased with an initial maturity of three (3) months or less.
Accounts Receivable
The Company provides for potentially uncollectible accounts receivable by use of the allowance method. The allowance is provided based upon a review of the individual accounts outstanding and the Company’s prior history of uncollectible accounts receivable. The Company charges off uncollectible receivables when all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, there was no provision for uncollectible trade accounts receivable. The Company does not accrue interest charges on delinquent accounts receivable. The accounts are generally unsecured.

Inventory
Inventories, consisting primarily of finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market value. We regularly assess inventory quantities on hand and record provisions for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on our estimated forecast of product demand. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011 there was no provision for obsolete inventory. Inventories at December 31, 2012 and 2011 were determined using a perpetual inventory system with periodic counts.
Deferred Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are provided for on an asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that the carryforwards will not be utilized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. The Company’s policy is to classify any interest and penalties to income tax expense in the financial statements. During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not incur any penalties or interest related to income taxes.
Discount on Debt
During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company issued convertible debt instruments together with detachable warrants. This resulted in a beneficial conversion feature and the value of the warrants creating a discount on the debt. The intrinsic value of a beneficial conversion feature inherent to a convertible note payable, which is not bifurcated and accounted for separately from the convertible note payable and may not be settled in cash upon conversion, is treated as a discount to the convertible note payable. This discount is amortized over the period from the date of issuance to the date the note is due using the straight line method which approximates the effective interest method. If the note payable is retired prior to the end of its contractual term, the unamortized discount is expensed in the period of retirement to interest expense.
In general, the beneficial conversion feature is measured by comparing the effective conversion price, after considering the relative fair value of detachable instruments included in the financing transaction, if any, to the fair value of the common shares at the commitment date to be received upon conversion.
New AccountingPronouncements
There have been no recent accounting pronouncements issued which are expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company recognizes stock-based compensation based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant. The fair value of option grants and warrants is estimated as of the date of grant utilizing the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

Earnings Per Share
The earnings per share accounting guidance provides for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity.
As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, warrants to purchase 247,489 shares of the Company’s common stock were not included in the determination of diluted loss per share, as they were antidilutive, and would decrease the loss per share.In addition, the notes payable and related accrued interest, were convertible into 314,947 and 258,343 shares of common stock as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, which also would have been anti-dilutive and have been excluded in the calculation of loss per share.
Fair Values of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and short-term loans approximate their fair values because of the relatively short-term maturity of these instruments, or for long-term debt based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms and maturities.

Related Party Transactions |
The Company had a note payable to a related party, TGE, in the amount of $44,121 as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, bearing interest at a rate of 8.25%. All outstanding principal and interest was due and payable on December 15, 2010. In December 2010, the note and accrued interest were extended from December 15, 2010 until January 15, 2012.

The Company pays the related party five percent (5.0%) of worldwide net sales of the licensed products. In October 2007, the License Agreement was amended to provide that the royalty would begin to accrue on January 1, 2008. This agreement was terminated on February 25, 2010 as a result of the sale of substantially all of TGE’s assets to AVT; such sale included the sale of the licensed patent. The Company entered into a License Agreement with AVT and now pays AVT a royalty equal to five percent (5%) of worldwide net sales of the licensed products. This License Agreement expired on December 31, 2012. See Note 8.
On February 25, 2010, TGE sold substantially all of its assets to AVT, an Arizona corporation.
The Company and TGE, its affiliate and former parent, entered into an administrative services/rental agreement on January 1, 2009. Under such agreement, TGE performed certain administrative duties for Aurios and provided it office space as required at $1,500 per month. Aurios has no employees and had contracted with TGE for all services. Paul Attaway controls TGE as its principal shareholder and an officer and director. This agreement was terminated on February 25, 2010 as a result of the sale of substantially all of TGE’s assets to AVT. After February 25, 2010, AVT provided administrative support and personnel to the Company at $1,500 per month under a Management and Rental Agreement that expired on July 31, 2010. During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company paid fees of $0 and $0, respectively, for the aforementioned services.

Going Concern |
The Company has incurred an accumulated deficit and has had negative cash flows from its operations. Realization of the Company’s assets is dependent upon the Company’s ability to meet its future financing requirements and the success of future operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
The Company has no expansion plans that would require significant infusions of capital into its operations; however, it expects that it will need additional working capital in the next twelve months if it does not generate positive cash flow from operations. No assurances can be given that the Company will be able to raise such additional capital, when needed or at all, or that such capital, if available, will be on terms acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to raise additional funds, it could be required to either substantially reduce or terminate its operations.
