Nature of Business | ' |
A. NATURE OF BUSINESS | |
Advanced Credit Technologies, Inc. (the “Company” or “ACT”) is a development stage company which has commenced operations . The Company was organized under the laws of the state of Nevada on February 25, 2008. We formed our Company for the purpose of offering an easy to- use technology platform that streamlines the credit management process. We also intend to offer additional e-books and Facebook applications for other financial products to compliment our system. We have launched our products and are generating minimal revenues. Our primary source of revenue initially will be generated business to business from the wholesale industry whereby third parties would pay us a monthly fee for access to our software which will be white labeled for them. This is intended to create brand loyalty by offering customers access to our credit management platform. Our retail portal and social media applications will take longer to generate revenue. Marketing to individual clients and individual end users requires more time and one to one communication. | |
With the ongoing problems in the overall economy ( unemployment at 7.2 % as of September 30, 2013) according to the Labor Dept. ) combined with tightening underwriting and credit criteria from those who lend monies to the public at large we are marketing a common sense solution to these problems. In October of 2012 the Company | |
Wholesale Application: The Company has developed ( www.turnscorpro.com ) to assist large, medium, and small businesses across the country to offer a solution to clients who want to purchase a product or service but cannot due to a sub par credit rating. Most business owners have no alternative but to let these clients leave without offering a solution. The Company developed (www.turnscorpro.com) to solve this problem. By “giving” away a complimentary software license they( company ) now have an opportunity to help not only the potential client, but to get referrals from that client. In addition to that, the software gives the company the ability to communicate with them via the portal ( www.turnscorpro.com ) and offer coaching solutions to keep them on task. The Company believes that based on the difficult economy that many businesses are losing sales everyday based on the poor credit ratings of the public at large, thus opening a small window for the wholesale market. From auto, independent insurance, real estate, to mortgage lending. These companies paying a small monthly license fee to access a “white label” software (The Company software that is a licensed opportunity option that can be branded on their company’s name) to offer “free” (software access) to the public at large is the cornerstone of our wholesale model. By educating the business owner about credit and its importance to the economy at large the Company believes it will have a positive impact and be in line with its mission statement. | |
Retail Application: The Company has developed ( www.turnscor.com ) to assist the average everyday consumer to understand the credit ratings system and the effects it has on their ability to access credit. The first thing that needed to be addressed was the regulatory framework that is the ( Fair Credit Reporting Act ) and how it affects a personal credit profile. The Company has provided links inside of the “Training Center” to all of the regulatory aspects of the (FCRA). The basic structure says that “creditors” and the 3 major reporting agencies ( Trans Union, Experian, and Equifax ) must provide a true and accurate picture of your personal credit profile, in essence, it must be 100% accurate and verifiable to stay posted in your file. This information is what determines your personal credit score ( FICO ), which determines your “cost of borrowing”. The Company software simply provides a narrative for the average consumer to understand, get access, and force the “creditors” and 3 major credit bureaus to update their credit file to reflect accurate, current data. All items that are outdated, erroneous, and not factual must be removed. Typically the FCRA allows for 30 days for this process to be completed. Once the consumer ( end user ) has access to the portal they can begin the process. The software provides the following: ( a personalized e-book, video tutorials, and a “live” demonstration of the actual software are provided to enhance the user experience ). The first step in the process is to “access” your personal credit profile, we provide links to ( www.annualcreditreport.com ) which is sponsored by the FTC and is free, as well as ( www.creditscore.com ) which is a fee based site but gives you a comprehensive view of your personal credit profile from all 3 repositories as well as your credit scores. Complete descriptions are provided in the “Training Center” as to a consumers options and benefits. Once the consumer has accessed a copy of his/her personal credit profile they will need to identify errors, outdated information, and erroneous items and then input them into the “system”. Once this is completed the auto selection mechanism will select items to submit to the repositories ( credit bureaus ) and create all of the documentation you will need to correct your personal credit profile. The “system” will send you automated reminders on a scheduled basis so that you follow the guidelines set forth in the FCRA. The auto selection mechanism developed into the software will allow the consumer to follow a specific schedule without having to “remember” a specific date, or procedure to be compliant with the FCRA. The Company believes that this is a highly beneficial feature and will be a great benefit to the end users ( consumers ). In addition to this feature, the “Training Center” has many additional features to assist the consumer. How to set up a “monthly budget”, FAQ's, Video Library Q&A, and a direct e-mail for customer support. All in an effort to empower the average consumer to get back on track financially, and becoming a positive productive part of his/her community. In conclusion, ( www.turnscor.com ) allows the average everyday consumer to understand the ( FCRA ) and follow specific steps to remove outdated, erroneous, and inaccurate items from his/her personal credit profiles. The Company believes that providing a simple, safe, secure software platform with a basic narrative so everyone can understand the process that it will have a positive impact on our society as a whole and provide a steady stream of income for the Company. | |
We maintain a sophisticated back office component that can be accessed by anyone with minimal computer experience. Clients will see how simple the ACT software program is to use especially when compared to traditional routes of credit management. We believe this will establish a brand loyalty to any additional products we will offer in the future. |

B. BASIS OF PRESENTATION | |
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States of America generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete financial statements. | |
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine month period ending September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. The Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2012 was derived from the audited financial statements as of such date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP. For further information, refer to the Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in our Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31,2012. | |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, 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. Those estimates and assumptions include estimates for reserves of uncollectible accounts, accruals for potential liabilities and assumptions made in valuing stock instruments issued for services. |

C. GOING CONCERN | |
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013 the Company had a net loss of $61,819.00. On September 30, 2013 the Company had a working capital $2,466.00 and a stockholders’ deficiency of $14,034.00 . The Company believes its cash and forecasted cash flow from operations will not be sufficient to continue operations through fiscal 2013 without continued external investment. The Company will require additional funds to continue its operations through fiscal 2013 and to continue to develop its existing projects and plans to raise such funds by finding additional investors to purchase the Company’s securities, generating sufficient sales revenue, implementing dramatic cost reductions or any combination thereof. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising such funds, generating the necessary sales or reducing major costs. Further, if the Company is successful in raising such funds from sales of equity securities, the terms of these sales may cause significant dilution to existing holders of common stock. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from this uncertainty. |

Recent Accounting Pronouncements | |
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs”. ASU No. 2011-4 does not require additional fair value measurements and is not intended to establish valuation standards or affect valuation practices outside of financial reporting. The ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company will adopt the ASU as required. The ASU will affect the Company’s fair value disclosures, but will not affect the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or liquidity. | |
In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income”. The ASU eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity, and instead requires consecutive presentation of the statement of net income and other comprehensive income either in a continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. ASU No. 2011-5 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company | |
In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, “Testing Goodwill for Impairment”, an update to existing guidance on the assessment of goodwill impairment. This update simplifies the assessment of goodwill for impairment by allowing companies to consider qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount before performing the two step impairment review process. It also amends the examples of events or circumstances that would be considered in a goodwill impairment evaluation. The amendments are effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the affects adoption of ASU 2011-08 may have on its goodwill impairment testing. | |
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the Securities Exchange Commission (the "SEC") did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future consolidated financial statements. |
