NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2010
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 | BACKGROUND AND PRESENTATION |
Organization and Nature of Business
Hightower Acquisition Corporation (the “Registrant”) was incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware on September 13, 2006. The Registrant filed an amendment to its certificate of incorporation to change its name to Adelman Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”) on May 12, 2010 and effected a change in control under which it intends to launch a global television network as well as a motion capture technology.
Presentation and Going Concern
The interim financial statements of the Company are condensed and do not include some of the information necessary to obtain a complete understanding of the financial data. Management believes that all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, unless otherwise noted) necessary for a fair presentation of results have been included in the unaudited financial statements for the interim period presented. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2010.
The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Unites States of America and have been presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company cannot provide assurance that it can achieve or sustain profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future. The Company anticipates it will continue to incur losses until it is able to establish significant levels of revenue while controlling its expenses. The Company’s success is dependent upon the successful development and marketing of its products, as to which there is no assurance. Any future success that the Company might experience will depend upon many factors, including factors out of its control or which cannot be predicted at this time.
These factors may include changes in or increased levels of competition, including the entry of additional competitors and increased success by existing competitors, changes in general economic conditions, increases in operating costs, including costs of supplies, personnel and equipment, reduced margins caused by competitive pressures and other factors. These conditions may have a materially adverse effect upon the Company or may force it to reduce or curtail operations. In addition, the Company will require additional funds to sustain and expand its sales and marketing activities, particularly if a well-financed competitor emerges.
Continued operations of the Company are dependent on the Company’s ability to complete equity financings or generate profitable operations in the future. Management’s plan in this regard is to secure additional funds through future equity financings. The inability to obtain sufficient funds from operations or external sources would require the Company to curtail or cease operations. Any additional equity financing may involve substantial dilution to then existing stockholders. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern
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 certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and timing of revenues and expenses, the reported amounts and classification of assets and
liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates and assumptions are based on the Company’s historical results as well as management’s future expectations. The Company’s actual results could vary materially from management’s estimates and assumptions.
Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments
In accordance with the reporting requirements of ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, the Company calculates the fair value of its assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments under this standard and includes this additional information in the notes to the financial statements when the fair value is different than the carrying value of those financial instruments. The estimated fair value of all assets and liabilities reported on the balance sheet approximate their carrying amounts due to the nature and short maturity of these instruments.
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements. In general, fair values of financial instruments are based upon quoted market prices, where available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that primarily use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure that financial instruments are recorded at fair value. Any such valuation adjustments are applied consistently over time. At this time, management does not plan to adopt fair value accounting for nonfinancial assets or liabilities.
Net Loss Per Share
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted net loss per share gives effect to common stock equivalents. Such amounts include shares potentially issuable upon conversion of the convertible preferred stock. However, there were no dilutive instruments outstanding during the periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Recent Pronouncements
ASC 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“ASC 105”) (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162) reorganized by topic existing accounting and reporting guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) into a single source of authoritative generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) to be applied by nongovernmental entities. All guidance contained in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) carries an equal level of authority. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. Accordingly, all other accounting literature will be deemed “non-authoritative”. ASC 105 is effective on a prospective basis for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company has implemented the guidance included in ASC 105 as of July 1, 2009. The implementation of this guidance changed the Company’s references to GAAP authoritative guidance but did not impact the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
ASC 855, Subsequent Events (“ASC 855”) (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 165, Subsequent Events) includes guidance that was issued by the FASB in May 2009, and is consistent with current auditing standards in defining a subsequent event. Additionally, the guidance provides for disclosure regarding the existence and timing of a company’s evaluation of its subsequent events. ASC 855 defines two types of subsequent events, “recognized” and “non-recognized”. Recognized subsequent events provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet and are required to be reflected in the financial statements. Non-recognized subsequent events provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose after that date and, therefore; are not required to be reflected in the financial statements. However, certain non-recognized subsequent events may require disclosure to prevent the financial statements from being misleading. This guidance was effective prospectively for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company implemented the guidance included in ASC 855 as of July 1, 2009. The effect of implementing this guidance was not material to the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
ASC 825, Financial Instruments (“ASC 825”) includes guidance which was issued in February 2007 by the FASB and was previously included under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. The related sections within ASC 825 permit a company to choose, at specified election dates, to measure at fair value certain eligible financial assets and liabilities that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. The specified election dates include, but are not limited to, the date when an entity first recognizes the item, when an entity enters into a firm commitment or when changes in the financial instrument causes it to no longer qualify for fair value accounting under a different accounting standard. An entity may elect the fair value option for eligible items that exist at the effective date. At that date, the difference between the carrying amounts and the fair values of eligible items for which the fair value option is elected should be recognized as a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The fair value option may be elected for each entire financial instrument, but need not be applied to all similar instruments. Once the fair value option has been elected, it is irrevocable. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected will be reported in earnings. This guidance was effective as of the beginning of fiscal years that began after November 15, 2007. The Company does not have eligible financial assets and liabilities, and, accordingly, the implementation of ASC 825 did not have an effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) (formerly included under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements) includes guidance that was issued by the FASB in September 2006 that created a common definition of fair value to be used throughout generally accepted accounting principles. ASC 820 applies whenever other standards require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value, with certain exceptions. This guidance established a hierarchy for determining fair value which emphasizes the use of observable market data whenever available. It also required expanded disclosures which include the extent to which assets and liabilities are measured at fair value, the methods and assumptions used to measure fair value and the effect of fair value measures on earnings. ASC 820 also provides additional guidance for estimating fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. The emphasis of ASC 820 is that fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants, under current market conditions. ASC 820 also further clarifies the guidance to be considered when determining whether or not a transaction is orderly and clarifies the valuation of securities in markets that are not active. This guidance includes information related to a company’s use of judgment, in addition to market information, in certain circumstances to value assets which have inactive markets.
Fair value guidance in ASC 820 was initially effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and for interim periods within those fiscal years for financial assets and liabilities. The effective date of ASC 820 for all non-recurring fair value measurements of nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities was fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. Guidance related to fair value measurements in an inactive market was effective in October 2008 and guidance related to orderly transactions under current market conditions was effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009.
The Company applied the provisions of ASC 820 to its financial assets and liabilities upon adoption at July 1, 2009. The adoption of ASC 820 has no material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In August 2009, the FASB issued ASC Update No. 2009-05, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value (“ASC Update No. 2009-05”). This update amends ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures and provides further guidance on measuring the fair value of a liability. The guidance establishes the types of valuation techniques to be used to value a liability when a quoted market price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, such as the use of an identical or similar liability when traded as an asset. The guidance also further clarifies that 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 both Level 1 fair value measurements. If adjustments are required to be applied to the quoted price, it results in a level 2 or 3 fair value measurement. The guidance provided in the update is effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) beginning after issuance. The Company does not expect that the implementation of ASC Update No. 2009-05 will have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations.
Additionally, there are no recently issued accounting standards with pending adoptions that the Company’s management currently anticipates will have any material impact upon its financial statements.

Charles Adelman | President, Chief Executive Officer |
Douglas Ridley | Secretary, Chief Operating Officer |
Subsequent to the change in control, the Company has been selling shares of its common stock at different prices starting June 25, 2010.
From June 25, 2010 through July 28, 2010 individuals who had helped with the initial stages of the Company were offered to purchase shares of common stock at a par value of 0.0001. The number of shares of common stock they could purchase at this price was limited to 10,000 shares, except for three individuals who were each allowed to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock at this price because of their increased involvement with the Company. A total of 150,000 shares were issued at par to these individuals, generating $15 in proceeds as of September 30, 2010.
Beginning July 28, 2010, Adelman Enterprises Inc. stopped the sale of shares of common stock at par value and began selling shares of common stock at $2.50 per share. A total of 47,500 shares were issued under these terms, generating $118,750 in proceeds as of September 30, 2010.
In lieu of rent for an office building through September 30, 2010, the Company has issued a total of 3,800 common shares.
On June 1, 2010, the Company entered into a short-term lease agreement on a building located at 5214 Bonsai Avenue, Moorpark, CA 93021, which is owned by Moorpark Development Company (MDC). This lease agreement allowed the Company to keep their initial monthly overhead to a minimum by allowing them to trade common stock for rent in the first four months. Starting October 1, 2010, the lease will be a month-to-month lease requiring monthly payments of $4,750. The Company is sub-leasing part of the building to Anthem Pictures, a related party, at the rate of $2,500 per month.
Rent expense was $14,250 and $19,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively. Sub-lease income was $7,500 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010.
NOTE 4 | RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AND BALANCES |
As of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company incurred transactions with and was owed amounts by the following related parties:
1. Anthus, LLC: Charles Adelman, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, owns 100% of the member capital of Anthus, LLC which is a development stage company developing an independent broadcast television network focused on health, wellness, positivity and philanthropy. The Company paid amounts on behalf of Anthus, LLC through September 30, 2010 and the balance owed as of that date to the Company is $4,271.
2. Anthem Pictures: Charles Adelman is 51% owner and President of Anthem Pictures which is sub-leasing part of the building located at 5214 Bonsai Ave, Moorpark, CA 93021. As of September 30, 2010, Anthem Pictures incurred and owed the Company sub-lease rent in the amount of $7,500.
| As of September 30, 2010, the Company has a net operating loss of $125,038, which would result in a deferred tax asset of $49,800, however, this amount is fully offset with a valuation allowance, since the Company has not yet started to generate income and the realization of this asset is not currently probable. |
| Subsequent to September 30, 2010, the Company sold 18,000 shares at $2.50 of its common stock to various unrelated parties for a total of $45,000. In addition, the Company issued 1,000 shares of common stock in exchange for the rights to an affiliate website. |
ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
You should read this section together with our financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report. In addition to the historical information contained herein, this report contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements are not based on historical information but relate to future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control and many of which, with respect to future business decisions, are subject to change. Certain statements contained in this Form 10-Q, including, without limitation, statements containing the words "believe," "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "are of the opinion that" and words of similar import, constitute "forward-looking statements." You should not place any undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
You should be aware that our results from operations could materially be effected by a number of factors, which include, but are not limited to the following: economic and business conditions, our ability to control costs and expenses, access to capital, and our ability to meet contractual obligations. There may be other factors not mentioned above or included elsewhere in this report that may cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking information.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon its statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. In consultation with its Board of Directors, the Company has identified two accounting policies that the Company believes are key to an understanding of its financial statements. These are important accounting policies that require management's most difficult, subjective judgment.
Going Concern. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company's current financial resources are not considered adequate to fund its planned operations. This condition raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
The Company's continuation as a going concern currently is dependent upon timely procuring significant external debt and/or equity financing to fund its immediate and near-term operations, and subsequently realizing operating cash flows from sales of its film products sufficient to sustain its longer-term operations and growth initiatives, including its desired marketing and new potential film screenplays.
Non-Cash Equity Issuances. The Company periodically issues shares of common stock in exchange for, or in settlement of, services. Management values the shares issued in such transactions at either the then market value of its common stock, as determined by the Board of Directors and after taking into consideration factors such as the volume of shares issued or trading restrictions, or the value of the services received, whichever is more readily determinable.
LIQUIDITY & CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has working capital of $12,695 as of September 30, 2010 as a result of sales of its common stock. The current efforts to raise funds through the issuance of common stock will allow the Company to begin implementing its plan to launch a global television network as well as a motion capture technology.
PLAN & RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Plan of Operation
The Company continues to be a development stage company working to implement its plan to launch a global television network as well as a motion capture technology. During the fiscal year quarter December 31, 2010, the Company is expected to acquire Anthus, LLC from Charles Adelman and then issue shares to the public under a Registration Statement to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in order to raise capital to continue to develop the company.
Revenue
The Company has not yet generated revenues.
General and administrative expenses
The Company’s expenses have consisted entirely of general and administrative expenses of $97,217 and $118,921 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively. These expenses were composed mostly of compensation paid to our chief executive officer, chief operating officer, and two employees totaling $13,200 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and $73,045 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Rent expense was $4,750 and $11,500 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010, respectively. Travel expenses resulted primarily from a business convention and amounted to $1,034 and $7,235 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2010. The Company was a shell company during and did not incur any expenses for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009.
EMPLOYEES
The Company’s CEO, Charles Adelman, the Company’s COO Douglas Ridley, and two other employees are the only four currently employed by the Company. The Company has identified individuals to fill the key positions with the Company which will be filled as capital and liquidity allow.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
The Company has not engaged in any off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2010.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
The Company is not subject to any long-term contractual obligations as of September 30, 2010.
ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
Based on the nature of our current operations, we have not identified any issues of market risk at this time.
ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
The principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Company, who are the same person (“the Certifying Officer”) with the assistance of advisors, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in section 240.13a-14(c) and 240.15d-14(c) under the Exchange Act) within 90 days prior to the filing of this report. Based upon the evaluation, the Certifying Officer concludes that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not effective in timely alerting management to material information relative to the Company which is required to be disclosed in its periodic filings with the SEC. This is due to the lack of employing internal resources sufficiently knowledgeable in accounting and SEC disclosures.
With the change in management in this quarter we had a significant change in the Company’s internal controls from the prior quarter. We are currently evaluating our procedures and controls and will be implementing improvements in these processes during the next six months.
