CHINA HERB GROUP HOLDINGS CORPORATION
NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2015
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - Organization
China Herb Group Holdings Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated under the name “Island Radio, Inc.” under the laws of the State of Nevada on June 28, 2010.
On June 27, 2012, Eric R. Boyer and Nina Edstrom (collectively, the “Sellers”), who were then the major shareholders of the Company, entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Chin Yung Kong, Qiuping Lu and Fumin Feng (collectively, the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Sellers sold to the Purchasers an aggregate 4,000,000 shares of the common stock of the Company, which represented approximately 93% of the then total issued and outstanding stock of the Company, for a total purchase price of $159,970 (the “Change in Control”). As result of this share purchase transaction, Chin Yung Kong, Qiuping Lu and Fumin Feng became the controlling shareholders of the Company.
The Company’s original business plan was to become a commercial FM radio broadcaster. Subsequently, following the Change in Control, the Company changed its business plan and intended to become a medical and spa company with a focus on Asia. However, after consultation with its professional and business advisors in the United States and the People’s Republic of China, the Company’s management decided during the third quarter of 2014 that this would no longer be its plan of operations. The Company’s plan of operations is to evaluate various industries, and geographic and market opportunities. This may take the form of acquiring a business, being acquired by an existing business or developing a business organically. Any such efforts may require significant capital, which the Company currently lacks. There is no assurance that any such opportunity will become available. There is also no assurance that, if any opportunity becomes available, the Company will have the financial and other resources available to take advantage of such opportunity, since the Company’s has extremely limited liquidity. Through September 30, 2015, the Company has no revenues or operations.
NOTE 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
The accompanying balance sheet as of September 30, 2015, statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, and the statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, are unaudited. These unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). In the opinion of the Company’s management, the unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements and included all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s statement of financial position at September 30, 2015 and its results of operations and its cash flows for the periods ended September 30, 2015. The results for the period ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for financial information and in accordance with Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). They reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of the Company’s management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and operating results as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.
Use of Estimates
The accompanying financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. Because a precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of financial statements for a period necessarily involves the use of estimates which have been made using careful judgment. Actual results may vary from these estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers highly liquid financial instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had no cash equivalents.
4 |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements” and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. It establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. It prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 we believe that the recorded values of all of our financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.

Net Loss per Share Calculation
Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per shares is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company had no dilutive financial instruments issued or outstanding.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under FASB ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the bases of certain assets and liabilities for income tax and financial reporting purposes. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified according to the financial statement classification of the assets and liabilities generating the differences.
The Company maintains a valuation allowance with respect to deferred tax assets. China Herb Group Holdings Corporation establishes a valuation allowance based upon the potential likelihood of realizing the deferred tax asset and taking into consideration the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the current period. Future realization of the deferred tax benefit depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income within the carry-forward period under the Federal tax laws.
Changes in circumstances, such as the Company generating taxable income, could cause a change in judgment about its ability to realize the related deferred tax asset. Any change in the valuation allowance will be included in income in the year of the change in estimate.
Prepaid Expenses
Prepaid expenses relates to cash paid in advance for consulting service. These amounts are recognized as expense over the service period.
Fiscal Year
The Company elected December 31st for its fiscal year end.
5 |
NOTE 3 - Going Concern
The Company has minimal operations, and as such has devoted most of its efforts since its inception to developing its business plan, issuing common stock, attempting to raise capital, establishing its accounting systems and other administrative functions.
As of September 30, 2015, the Company had $3,085 in cash. The Company is seeking sources of funding. Without limiting its available options, future equity financings will most likely be through the sale of additional shares of its common stock. It is possible that the Company could also offer warrants, options and/or rights in conjunction with any future issuances of its common stock. However, the Company can give no assurance that financing will be available to it, and if available, in amounts or on terms acceptable to the Company.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United State of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has not established a source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs, and as such, has incurred an operating loss since its inception. Furthermore, as of September 30, 2015, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $(291,203). These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments or classifications that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 4 - Related Party Transactions
Shareholder loans
During the year ended December 31, 2013, Chin Yung Kong, the then director and a shareholder of the Company, advanced $20,000 to the Company for working capital purposes. These working capital advances of $20,000 are payable on demand and, at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, reflected as related party loans on the accompanying balance sheets.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, Qiuping Lu, President, Chief Executive Officer, director and a shareholder of the Company, advanced $57,871 and $66,177 to the Company for working capital purposes, respectively. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, outstanding working capital advances amounted to $127,648 and $69,777, respectively, are payable on demand and are reflected as related party loans on the accompanying balance sheets.
During the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company imputed interest of $2,866 and $1,163 and recorded interest expense and an increase in additional paid-in capital, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company imputed interest of $6,811 and $3,950 and recorded interest expense and an increase in additional paid-in capital, respectively.
NOTE 5 - Common Stock
The total number of common shares authorized that may be issued by the Company is 70,000,000 shares with a par value of $0.001 per share.
As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had 36,443,119 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.
NOTE 6 - Preferred Stock
The total number of preferred shares authorized that may be issued by the Company is 5,000,000 shares with a par value of $0.001 per share. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.
NOTE 7 - Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On August 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concerns (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. The amendments require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards. Specifically, the amendments (1) provide a definition of the term substantial doubt, (2) require an evaluation every reporting period including interim periods, (3) provide principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans, (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’s plans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). The amendments in this Update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted.
6 |
In June 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-10, “Development Stage Entities”. The amendments in this update remove the definition of a development stage entity from the Master Glossary of the ASC thereby removing the financial reporting distinction between development stage entities and other reporting entities from U.S. GAAP. In addition, the amendments eliminate the requirements for development stage entities to (1) present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity, (2) label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity, (3) disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged, and (4) disclose in the first year in which the entity is no longer a development stage entity that in prior years it had been in the development stage. The amendments in this update are applied retrospectively. The adoption of ASU 2014-10 removed the development stage entity financial reporting requirements from the Company.
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and do not believe that there are any new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial statements.
NOTE 8 - Commitment
On April 4, 2014 the Company entered into a memorandum of understanding (the “MOU”) with Dr. Kiril Pandelisev and Yan Lawrence. Under the MOU, Dr. Pandelisev and Ms. Lawrence were to provide certain services to the Company and the Company was to have issued 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock to each of Dr. Pandelisev and Ms. Lawrence upon the completion of a reverse merger with a previously identified operating company, which reverse merger did not and will not take place. Pursuant to ASC 505-50, the Company did not recognize any expense during the period since the issuance of these shares is contingent upon the completion of a specific merger. Accordingly, no performance commitment has been reached nor has performance been completed.
Commencing April 1, 2015, the Company has paid a consultant $1,667 per quarter for her work keeping the Company’s corporate presence in the United States, including handling bilingual communications between the Company and its professional advisors in the United States, and processing payables. This arrangement is not the subject of a written agreement and can be terminated at any time by either party.
NOTE 9 - Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated subsequent events from the balance sheet date through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined there are no additional events required to be disclosed.

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
We have limited operations and are not currently generating any revenues from our business operations. Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued a going concern opinion for the year ended December 31, 2014. This means that our auditors believe there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next 12 months. We do not anticipate generating significant revenues until we acquire a business, are acquired by an existing business or develop a business organically. Accordingly, we must raise additional cash from sources other than operations.
We presently are exploring other such sources of funding, including raising funds through a public offering, a private placement of securities, debt or a combination of the foregoing. If we are unable to raise additional capital, we will either have to suspend operations until we do raise the cash or cease operations entirely.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our Financial Statements and the notes thereto and the other information included in this Annual Report as filed with the SEC on Form 10-K.
Overview
Our original business plan was to become a commercial FM radio broadcaster. Subsequently, following a change in control, we changed our business plan and intended to become a medical and spa company with a focus on Asia. However, after consultation with our professional and business advisors in the United States and the People’s Republic of China, management decided during the third quarter of 2014 that this would no longer be our plan of operations. Our plan of operations is to evaluate various industries, and geographic and market opportunities. This may take the form of acquiring a business, being acquired by an existing business or developing a business organically. Any such efforts may require significant capital, which we currently lack. There is no assurance that any such opportunity will become available. There is also no assurance that, if any opportunity becomes available, we will have the financial and other resources available to take advantage of such opportunity, since we have extremely limited liquidity. Through September 30, 2015, we had no revenues or operations.
Results of Operations
Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 and 2014
Revenues. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we have not generated any revenues.
Operating Expenses. For the three months ended September 30, 2015, total operating expenses amounted to $10,365 as compared to $30,660 for the three months ended September 30, 2014, a decrease of $20,295. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, total operating expenses amounted to $51,795 as compared to $92,704 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, a decrease of $40,909. Since inception, our operating expenses primarily consisted of fees and expenses related to complying with our ongoing SEC reporting requirements, which include legal fees, accounting fees, transfer agent fees, filing fees and consulting fees. Commencing April 1, 2015, we have paid a consultant $1,667 per quarter for her work keeping our corporate presence in the United States, including handling bilingual communications between the Company and its professional advisors in the United States, and processing payables. This arrangement is not the subject of a written agreement and can be terminated at any time by either party.
Other expenses. During the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we recorded $2,866 and $1,163 in imputed interest expenses related to advances outstanding to related parties, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we recorded $6,811 and $3,950 in imputed interest expenses related to advances outstanding to related parties, respectively. The imputed interest was recorded in our financial statements under additional paid-in capital.
Net Loss. During the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we had a net loss of $13,231 and $31,823, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we had a net loss of $58,606 and $96,654, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2015, we had cash of $3,085, liabilities of $147,948, and a working capital deficit of $143,196. As of December 31, 2014, we had cash of $2,122, liabilities of $93,623, and a working capital deficit of $91,401. We expect to incur continued losses during the remainder of, and full year, 2015, possibly even longer until we commence operations and those operations are profitable.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, net cash used in operating activities amounted to $56,908 and $96,150, respectively. We expect to require working capital of approximately $70,000 over the next 12 months to meet our financial obligations.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, net cash provided by financing activities amounted to $57,871 and $66,177, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, we received proceeds from loans from officer of $57,871 and $66,177, respectively, for working capital purposes.
We have not generated any revenues from operations to date. It is not likely that we will generate any revenue until at least a business combination has been consummated or we develop a business organically. Even following a business combination or development of a business organically, there is no guarantee that any revenues will be generated, that any revenues will be sufficient to meet our expenses or that we will ever become profitable. We may consider a business combination with a target company which itself has recently commenced operations, is a developing company in need of additional funds for expansion into new products or markets, is seeking to develop one or more new products or services, or is an established business which may be experiencing financial or operating difficulties and is in need of additional capital.
8 |
Moreover, any target business that is selected may be financially unstable or in the early stages of development or growth, including businesses without established records of sales or earnings. In that event, we will be subject to numerous risks inherent in the business and operations of financially unstable and early stage or potential emerging growth companies. In addition, we may effect a business combination with a target company in an industry characterized by a high level of risk, and, although our management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular target company, there can be no assurance that we will properly ascertain or assess all significant risks.
The foregoing considerations raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We are currently planning on devoting the vast majority of our efforts to identifying, investigating and conducting due diligence on target companies; and negotiating, structuring, documenting and consummating a business combination. Our long-term ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to develop additional sources of capital, complete a business combination or develop a business organically and, thereafter, achieve profitable operations.
We believe that we will be able to meet these costs through cash on hand and additional amounts, as may be necessary, to be loaned by or invested in us by our stockholders, management and/or others. Currently, however, our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Our ability to continue as a going concern is also dependent on our ability to find a suitable target company and enter into a business combination or develop a business organically. Management’s plan includes obtaining additional funds through a combination of sales of our equity securities before, contemporaneously with, or following, the consummation of a business combination or development of a business organically; and borrowings, although we do not believe that we will be eligible to borrow funds from a bank until at least a business combination is consummated or a business is developed organically. However, here is no assurance that any additional funding will be available on terms that are favorable to us or at all.
We currently rely on loans from our sole director and officer, Qiuping Lu, to meet our expenses. There is no guarantee that Ms. Lu will continue to lend us funds to meet our expenses in the future. Currently, we do not have any other arrangements for financing.
We have no assurance that future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. If financing is not available to us on satisfactory terms or at all, we may be unable to develop operations or meet our expenses. Additionally, any equity financing in which we might engage would result in dilution to our existing shareholders.
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, Chin Yung Kong, then a director of the Company, advanced an aggregate $20,000 to the Company to pay some of our expenses and for working capital purposes. These advances in the aggregate amount of $20,000 are payable on demand and, at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, are reflected as related party loans on the accompanying balance sheets.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, Ms. Lu, the sole director and officer of the Company, advanced an aggregate amount of $57,871 to the Company to pay our expenses and for working capital purposes. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, Ms. Lu advanced an aggregate $69,777 to the Company to pay our expenses and for working capital purposes. These advances in the aggregate amount of $127,648 are payable on demand and, at September 30, 2015, are reflected as related party loans on the accompanying balance sheets.
Imputed interest of $2,866 and $1,163 was recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, and recorded as interest expense and an increase in additional paid-in capital, respectively. Imputed interest of $6,811 and $3,950 was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, and recorded as interest expense and an increase in additional paid-in capital, respectively.
Going Concern Consideration
Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued a going concern opinion in their audit report dated April 14, 2015, which can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 14, 2015. This means that our auditors believe there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next 12 months. Our financial statements found within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the aforementioned Annual Report on Form 10-K contain additional note disclosures describing the circumstances that lead to this disclosure by our independent auditors.
Off -Balance Sheet Operations
As of September 30, 2015, we had no off-balance sheet activities or operations.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for financial information and in accordance with Regulation S-X promulgated by the SEC. We believe that the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the unaudited financial statements.
9 |
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 the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Because of the use of estimates inherent in the financial reporting process, actual results may differ significantly from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, we consider highly liquid financial instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had no cash equivalents.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements” and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. It establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. It prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 we believe that the recorded values of all of our financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.
Net Loss per Share Calculation
Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per shares is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. During the periods presented, we had no dilutive financial instruments issued or outstanding.
Income Taxes
We account for income taxes pursuant to FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. Under FASB ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the bases of certain assets and liabilities for income tax and financial reporting purposes. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified according to the financial statement classification of the assets and liabilities generating the differences.
We maintain a valuation allowance with respect to deferred tax assets. We establish a valuation allowance based upon the potential likelihood of realizing the deferred tax asset and taking into consideration our financial position and results of operations for the current period. Future realization of the deferred tax benefit depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income within the carry-forward period under the Federal tax laws.
Changes in circumstances, such as us generating taxable income, could cause a change in judgment about its ability to realize the related deferred tax asset. Any change in the valuation allowance will be included in income in the year of the change in estimate.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
On August 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concerns (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. The amendments require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards. Specifically, the amendments (1) provide a definition of the term substantial doubt, (2) require an evaluation every reporting period including interim periods, (3) provide principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans, (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’s plans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). The amendments in this Update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted.
10 |
In June 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-10, “Development Stage Entities”. The amendments in this update remove the definition of a development stage entity from the Master Glossary of the ASC thereby removing the financial reporting distinction between development stage entities and other reporting entities from U.S. GAAP. In addition, the amendments eliminate the requirements for development stage entities to (1) present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity, (2) label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity, (3) disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged, and (4) disclose in the first year in which the entity is no longer a development stage entity that in prior years it had been in the development stage. The amendments in this update are applied retrospectively. The adoption of ASU 2014-10 removed the development stage entity financial reporting requirements from the Company.
We have implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact our financial statements and do not believe that there are any new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on our financial statements.
ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
Not applicable.
ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and principal accounting officer of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act).
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be presented or detected on a timely basis.
Based on management’s assessment, we have concluded that, as of September 30, 2015, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in timely alerting management to the material information relating to us required to be included in our annual and interim filings with the SEC.
Our chief executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures had the following material weaknesses:
● | We were unable to maintain any segregation of duties within our financial operations due to our reliance on limited personnel in the finance function. While this control deficiency did not result in any audit adjustments to our 2014 interim or annual financial statements, it could have resulted in a material misstatement that might have been prevented or detected by a segregation of duties; | |
● | We lack sufficient resources to perform the internal audit function and does not have an Audit Committee; | |
● | We do not have an independent Board of Directors, nor do we have a board member designated as an independent financial expert. The Board of Directors is comprised of one (1) member who is also our only executive officer. As a result, there is a lack of independent oversight of the management team, lack of independent review of our operating and financial results, and lack of independent review of disclosures made by us; and | |
● | Documentation of all proper accounting procedures is not yet complete. |
These weaknesses were identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. These weaknesses have existed since our inception on June 28, 2010 and, as of September 30, 2015, have not been remedied.
11 |
To the extent reasonably possible given our limited financial and personnel resources, we intend to take measures to cure the aforementioned material weaknesses, including, but not limited to, the following:
● | Consider the engagement of consultants to assist in ensuring that accounting policies and procedures are consistent across the organization and that we have adequate control over financial statement disclosures; |
● | Hire additional qualified financial personnel, including a Chief Financial Officer, on a full-time basis; |
● | Expand our board of directors to include additional independent individuals willing to perform directorial functions; and | |
● | Increase our workforce in preparation for commencing revenue producing operations. |
Since the recited remedial actions will require that we hire or engage additional personnel, these material weaknesses may not be overcome in the near-term due to our limited financial resources. Until such remedial actions can be realized, we will continue to rely on the limited advice of outside professionals and consultants.
Changes in Controls and Procedures
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
