PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
History
BioPharma Manufacturing Solutions, Inc, (the “Company”) provides a broad spectrum of specialized services to the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries. The Company was incorporated in the State of Delaware in April 2011, and was formerly known as Beachwood Acquisition Corporation.
In August 2011, the Company implemented a change of control by issuing shares to new shareholders, redeeming shares of existing shareholders, electing new officers and directors and accepting the resignations of its then existing officers and directors. At that time, the shareholders of the Company and its board of directors also unanimously approved the change of the Company’s name from Beachwood Acquisition Corporation to BioPharma Manufacturing Solutions, Inc.
On October 11, 2012, the Company acquired BioPharmaceutical Process Engineering and Consulting Services (“BPECS”), a component of GMR Engineering Inc. (“GMR”), in a stock-for-assets transaction (the “Acquisition”). BPECS consists of the components of GMR which comprise its consulting, design and engineering services, but does not include GMR’s manufacturing components or equipment. GMR was incorporated in the State of California in June 1996 to engage in professional practice in automated process control and instrumentation systems in the pharmaceutical industry. Prior to the Acquisition, the Company had no ongoing business or operations and was established for the purpose of completing a business combination with a target company, such as BPECS. As a result of the Acquisition, the Company acquired the operations and business of BPECS. While the Company has taken over the business and operations of BPECS, GMR remains a separate entity with its own independent business and operations. The purpose of the Acquisition was to facilitate and prepare BPECS, as part of the Company, for a registration statement and/or public offering of securities.
The Acquisition was effected by the Company through the issuance to Gary Riccio (the sole shareholder of GMR) of 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company in exchange for certain assets of GMR. The assets acquired in the Acquisition consisted of the business of BPECS, which was comprised primarily of services contracts that GMR held with its clients. These contracts were assigned by GMR as part of the Acquisition and transferred as part of BPECS to the Company. As a result of the Acquisition, the Company acquired the operations and business of BPECS.

On October 18, 2012, the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form S-1 for the offer and sale of 72,000,000 shares of its common stock held by the owners thereof offered at $.08 per share. At the time of this report, the registration statement has not become effective and no sales can be made pursuant to the registration statement until it becomes effective.
The Company’s address is 8001 Irvine Center Dr., Suite 400, Irvine, California 92618. The Company’s main phone number is (562) 244-9785.
Summary
The Company provides technology transfer and scale-up, project management, process design, value engineering, process automation and process validation consulting services to biotechnology and pharmaceutical manufacturers in the life sciences industry. The Company assists its clients in all phases of biopharmaceutical project lifecycle from concept, risk assessment and design through installation, validation and Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approval.
In a typical situation, the Company would assist its clients with technical transfer and scale-up of the process used to manufacture a development stage or FDA approved medicine. Once the process design and risk assessment is complete, the Company would then design and/or procure the requisite manufacturing equipment needed to produce the medicine. Upon completion and receipt of equipment, the Company would manage installation of procured equipment and the critical utilities required to support this equipment. After installation, the Company would then assist its clients in the qualification and validation of the installed equipment, critical utilities and automation/electronic reporting systems. Subsequently, the Company would provide technical support for the conformance runs and process validation of the completed biopharmaceutical process and facility leading up to FDA submission. Finally, the Company also provides follow-up technical services to help its clients address any relevant FDA post-submission questions.
The Company (having acquired the BPECS portion of GMR) has a 16-year successful business track record in delivering turnkey, fast-track, on-time, on-budget quality manufacturing processes. The Company is a valuable long-term partner with its clients in being able to provide legacy and after-market lifecycle support services for FDA-approved biopharmaceutical processes and facilities. The Company also provides technical assistance in helping its clients resolve CAPA, FDA 483 and Warning Letter issues related to the manufacturing of their products. For example, the Company provides reliable, secure and efficient automated manufacturing processes and data collection/retrieval systems designed to reduce the risk of non-compliance, and in addition, the Company provides the analytical expertise to help its clients determine root causes of compliance failure, and then correct and prevent any future non-compliance issues that might arise in the lifecycle of a typical biopharmaceutical process and facility.
In addition to growing its existing engineering and consulting services business, future plans for the Company plans include developing in-house manufacturing capabilities and growing its own line of biopharmaceutical process equipment and automation systems targeted for both clinical and commercial scale markets.
Additional future plans for the Company include leveraging its technology transfer, scale-up and process engineering expertise to contract or build its own modular clinical scale manufacturing facility. The Company’s intent is to cultivate its relationships with industry and academic research communities and provide technical transfer, scale-up and contract manufacturing services ranging from clinical scale manufacturing of development-stage medicines to contract manufacturing of generic medicines. The potential scope of medicines that may benefit from the Company’s services broadly range from development-stage stem-cell cancer treatments or other cutting-edge, niche clinical medicines to biotechnology and pharmaceutical drugs
The Company believes that providing a “ready to use” clinical scale manufacturing facility can shorten the Investigational New Drug (IND) application time frame, provide a more cost-effective and repeatable process for getting these drugs into, and through, clinical trials and provide increased commercial opportunities for pharmaceutical companies by improving the chance of success for development-stage drug projects.
The Industry: Development Services
The Company believes that the research and development (R&D) process required to bring a drug successfully to market remains a challenging and expensive process, which requires a unique combination of scientific excellence with a thorough understanding of the business environment. Accordingly, there is a high attrition rate that exists to convert an early stage life science innovation to an FDA-approved pharmaceutical and biotechnology product. Many companies that are engaged in this process are simply unable to progress beyond their receipt of initial funding and basic efforts to develop their products.
Due to the dynamics of the drug development sector, the Company believes that biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, both large and small, are actively looking for new ways to conduct business. Any solution that will accelerate success in this difficult environment should hold appeal, and in particular, better abilities to discover, develop and deliver new drugs. In addition, companies want to find avenues to manufacture these drugs more cost-effectively and to sell and market them more successfully once developed. The Company believes that a novel and integrated solution – a “virtual company” offers many benefits. Such a virtual company would allow the company to retain key intellectual expertise while outsourcing or partnering with specialized pharmaceuticals firms that can provide complimentary drug research, development and manufacturing expertise.

A pharmaceutical industry analyst at Visiongain, has recently echoed this outlook, nothing that “[t]he global pharmaceutical contract manufacturing industry will benefit from a continued move to strategic outsourcing by the pharmaceutical industry,” and “[t]hat industry will look more to long-term relationships with a few selected contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) as the decade goes on. Becoming a full-service CMO or specializing in a niche area will best allow contract manufacturers to take advantage of these strategic partnerships.” The Company hopes to capitalize on BPECS’ extensive history of successfully providing innovative solutions to existing biotechnology and pharmaceutical clients. The Company plans to address the niche opportunity with specialized facilities and equipment, organization and personnel, and its testing and operations capabilities required to support all phases of clinical drug development.
The Market
Based upon publically available information (including the IMAP Pharmaceutical Research Report), the Company expects that the global pharmaceutical market would grow by 8.3% and reach approximately $875 billion as of year-end 2010. In the long run, the global pharmaceutical market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 5-8% per year through 2014. There are many challenges facing the industry that will impact the future growth of the pharmaceutical industry: mergers and acquisitions, patent expiration, growth of generics, drug spending, growing regulatory pressures from the FDA growth of the emerging markets and low productivity of R&D activities leading to decreasing products in the drug development pipeline.
The Company believes, based on management’s estimates and understanding of industry data and information, that the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry is estimated to have over 795 active development projects in the North American market valued at about $26 billion, of which approximately $14 billion in activity per year actually occurs. Even with a slowing economy and less growth in the overall pharmaceutical industry, the Company believes that there has been less impact on the overall spending for capital projects and development initiatives in this sector. The Company expects continued robust growth for the major areas in capital spending that support new drug development projects, including grassroots construction, production, packaging and line expansions/additions, research and development facilities and process upgrades, and construction and building of specialized plants.
The Company’s Presence in the Market
BPECS (through GMR formerly) has established a solid presence and reputation for success in the biopharmaceutical marketplace for the past 16 years. The Company intends to use its existing technology transfer and scale-up process engineering, process automation, process validation and manufacturing expertise to obtain a growing share of the capital engineering and consulting services market and to use this expertise to develop its own line of manufacturing equipment to service the needs of its clients and the industry at large. The Company plans to develop the equipment manufacturing segment of its business by designing and manufacturing, for both clinical and commercial uses, a line of engineered process equipment specifically targeting the process equipment needs of clinical, CMOs and commercial biotechnology and pharmaceutical manufacturers. The Company also plans to build its own “ready to use” modular clinical scale contract manufacturing facility which both the private industry and academic research community can employ to shorten the Investigational New Drug (IND) application time frame, provide a more cost-effective and repeatable process for getting these drugs into, and through, clinical trials and to provide increased commercial opportunities for pharmaceutical companies by improving the chance of success for development-drug projects.
To date, BPECS only has one significant customer relationship, and as such, the Company’s business is dependent on its existing customer relationship. However, it is providing service to multiple divisions to its significant customer. The Company is currently in the process of building additional customer relationships and seeking out new customers.
Manufacturing Capabilities and Equipment Product Expansion
The Company plans to design, build and develop its own proprietary biopharmaceutical process equipment. The Company plans to self-fund this new project through capital reserves and/or profits generated from its engineering and consulting services business. If needed, in the future, the Company may seek to negotiate standard credit terms with parts suppliers or other vendors to manage cash flow and financing. The expertise for the equipment designs will be obtained through the engineering capabilities that the Company now possesses (due to its acquisition of BPECS) and the design experience of the Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Gary Riccio, of the Company. As the Company develops new equipment designs, its goal is to file for intellectual property protection (such as patents) on these designs.
The Company has identified several important milestones to achieve in the development and growth of the biopharmaceutical equipment segment of the Company’s business. The overall estimated time from initial fabrication to delivery of an equipment product is expected to be approximately six months. The projected sequence of events and milestones is the following:
4 |
· | Product Design |
· | Development of Marketing Brochures and Sales Literature |
· | Sale of Product Concept To Client |
· | Receipt of Down-payment from Client |
· | Fabricate Product |
· | Deliver Finished Product To Client |
· | Validation Of Equipment at Client Facility |
· | FDA Approval for Client Production Use |
The principal steps and timeframe in manufacturing products is expected to correspond to the implementations schedule described below:
Principal Steps and Projected Timeline: | Estimated Implementation Schedule |
Receipt of Sales Order from Client | Start Date |
Generate Equipment Fabrication Drawings and Bill of Materials | Week 1-2 |
Receive Approved Drawing from Client | Week 3-4 |
Purchase Required Components (Mechanical, Electrical, Instrumentation, Computer) | Week 5-6 |
Fabricate sub-assemblies of prototype | Week 7-11 |
Assemble Prototype | Week 12-14 |
Initial Testing | Week 15 |
Review Tests and Finalize Design | Week 16 |
Implement Final Modifications | Week 17-18 |
Perform Final Tests | Week 19 |
Generate Turnover Package (equipment/training manuals, quality test) Documentation | Week 20 |
Deliver Final Product | Week 21 |
Train Client Operations and Maintenance Personnel on Equipment | Week 22 |
Support Clients In-House Validation of Equipment for Use with Their Product | 1 Week (Per Client Schedule) |
Support Client in FDA Submission to Use Equipment for Production Use | 1 Week (Per Client Schedule) |
The initial prototype development cost for the equipment is expected to exceed the market price of the final production model (i.e. initial prototype development costs are estimated to reach $50,000 versus an expected $32,000 sales price, as determined from pre-bidding on projects with potential clients). However, final production model costs (after prototyping in complete) will be lower than the anticipated sales price. The estimated break-down of product costs for the prototype is shown below:
Product Cost Breakdown (approx.):
Initial design costs: | $ | 2,000 | ||
Equipment Purchase: | ||||
Computer Control System Hardware | $ | 6,000 | ||
Computer Control System Software | $ | 4,000 | ||
Mechanical equipment (valves, pump, tubing) | $ | 6,000 | ||
Electrical equipment (motors, heater, components) | $ | 4,000 | ||
Instruments | $ | 6,000 | ||
Software Programming | $ | 7,000 | ||
Mechanical Assembly (welding, mounting) | $ | 6,000 | ||
Electrical Installation (wiring, mounting, terminations) | $ | 4,000 | ||
Testing | $ | 3,000 | ||
Documentation | $ | 1,000 | ||
Validation Support (At Client Facility) | $ | 2,000 | ||
Post-FDA Submission Support | $ | 1,000 | ||
Total Production Development Cost (approx.): | $ | 50,000 |
There are key items which the Company must focus on in order to succeed in its development and launch of the equipment products, including the following:
5 |
-Focusing on solving niche problem areas in clients’ manufacturing processes
-Developing innovative and competitively-priced equipment solutions that solve client problems
-Filing for patents on the Company’s designs
-Actively marketing the Company’s products
-Delivering products per clients’ schedules and budget requirements
-Supporting clients’ validation and FDA submission efforts
There are no conditions inhibiting development of the Company’s manufacturing equipment plans. The products will generally be built and/or made to order, hence reducing the risk of unused and/or accumulated inventory. The Company plans to self-fund the initial launch, development and sales and marketing efforts from existing capital reserves and ongoing cash flow and profits from its services business operations.
Competition
The Company operates in a competitive environment with numerous participants being able to offer services that can fulfill the needs to biotechnology and pharmaceutical clients. The Company believes that as the overall pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry continues to experience heavy competition, established longstanding service providers (such as BPECS) will be required to compete more effectively and offer better solutions at more cost-effective prices in order to retain their competitive advantages. The Company believes that it has a solid market position within this competitive marketplace, because BPECS has an established track record and the Company can offer efficient, client-friendly service solutions that many larger established competitors are unable to provide clients.
In the Company’s existing process engineering services business, the Company believes that there are numerous competitors, since the marketplace is widely fragmented and many small service firms can easily set up a business and operate. Other than the skill set required to provide the underlying services that BPECS offers, the barriers to entry are low. In the Company’s proposed expanded business, including its proposed line of process equipment, there are at least five or six well-reputed competitors. One area in which the Company believes that its expertise on delivering FDA-approved manufacturing process systems gives it an advantage over these competitors is in developing process equipment that will address niche concerns or problem areas for its clients. This capability had been obtained from years on working in the clean rooms and manufacturing floor of its clients. In the future, the Company would seek to patent the designs of its newly developed equipment.
It is difficult to obtain an accurate estimate of the competition in the industry as it is based on a number of factors: the valued-added design and engineering expertise of the competitor; designs for more efficient systems and equipment; and differentiation in the scope of services and equipment being offered. For example, many competitors provide equipment only, but they do not provide the engineering, automation, project management and validation services that are also provided by the Company. Others provide engineering and consulting services but cannot design or build process equipment that can solve the specific manufacturing problems of the industry.
Many of the competitors are large engineering firms, whose size gives them a distinct advantage for larger projects ($10 million and above) but operates as a disadvantage for smaller projects where it is difficult for them to compete with the smaller engineering firms on a cost basis. Moreover, although these large firms are key players in the design and project management phases of a biopharmaceutical project, they are a relatively smaller factor in commissioning and start-up of the equipment and processes as well as the equipment qualification and process validation phases of the project. On smaller projects, the latter phases often carry the highest risk, thus providing these services is often the most profitable.
Large firms do not generally manufacture their own process equipment but rather recommend or specify equipment vendors that they are often familiar with and with whom they have had success in past projects. However, biopharmaceutical processes often require specialty equipment that may not exist on the market in the form that the client would prefer. As a smaller firm, the Company thus has an opportunity to fill this need by building custom designed process equipment that meets the particular needs of the client.
Generally, larger contractors do not “hand-hold” the client through the commissioning/start-up, equipment and process validation phases of the project which are often more critical to the project’s success. By contrast, the Company, as a smaller firm, has built its reputation on working with its clients to solve factory-floor manufacturing problems. These services often play an important role in getting a newly installed biopharmaceutical facility out of the installation phase and into the validation phase leading up to FDA submission. This type of experience also extends to post-submission and legacy manufacturing processes where the Company can assist its clients in helping them resolve, as well as prevent, FDA warning letter and 483 citations.
The Company considers itself to be a smaller firm operating in the marketplace, but able to compete with larger companies, due to the Company’s client-centric focus and ability to work closely with clients throughout the process.

Operations
The Company’s services are requested by clients on a year-round basis, and typically, there is no material effect of seasonality on the ongoing business of the Company.
The Company obtains most of its business through the established market presence of BPECS and its previous relationship with GMR. The Company maintains a limited employee workforce and conducts most of its operations through sub-contractors and other personnel who assist the Company in completing specific projects and tasks.
Over time, the Company expects that it will develop more business on its own (i.e. without affiliation or relationship with GMR existing clients or relationships) and that it will build a larger employee base. However, in the short term, the Company expects that its business will generally continue to involve a large degree of sub-contractors and outsourced project work for its clients.
In its services offerings, the Company offers industry-standard warranties on defective parts and the labor to replace them. The Company anticipates that it will continue to offer such warranties, and it will need to reserve and dedicate resources needed to meet its warranty obligations.
Relationship with GMR
GMR is an entity which was under common control by Mr. Riccio (the sole officer and director of the Company) until December 31, 2013, at which time he resigned his position as Chief Executive Officer of GMR. The Company which previously used office space free-of-charge provided by GMR has recently entered into an agreement to rent office space.
The Company does not expect that GMR would ever compete with the Company, as the divestiture of BPECS by GMR represents the cessation by GMR of that business line segment. The purpose of the Acquisition was to transition the customers and the services business of GMR (via BPECS) to the Company. Moreover, GMR and the Company are under common control, in that GMR is wholly owned and fully controlled by the Company’s largest shareholder, sole director and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Gary Riccio. While GMR is currently assisting the Company in facilitating relationships for BPECS business from existing GMR clients, the Company expects that this process of transitioning many customer relationships from GMR to BPECS will be completed within the next 12 to 18 months; after such time, Mr. Riccio intends to dissolve GMR and focus his efforts principally in developing and managing the business and operations of the Company. Moreover, the Company has greater financial and intellectual resources available to it than does GMR and is better positioned than is GMR to expand the engineering and consulting services currently offered by BPECS. As such, the likelihood of a conflict of interest between GMR and the Company regarding customers and their business is low.
Strategic Partners and Suppliers
Other than its relationship with GMR, the Company does not believe that strategic partnerships are likely to be a major component of the Company’s operating strategy. With the exception of GMR, the Company has no strategic partners.
The Company does work extensively with a variety of subcontractors and service providers that assist the Company in delivery services to BPECS clients. The subcontractors and service providers are critical to the Company’s ability to timely provide cost-effective specialized services to its clients.
The Company does not currently require any special or customized raw materials in its business. All materials needed for the Company’s operations are readily available from various suppliers in the general marketplace. The Company plans to continue to use brand name components in its business, and will require minimum spare parts to support its customers. The Company has identified alternate suppliers in the event of the loss of a major supplier of the Company. Over the longer-term, the Company’s business plans include the development of contract manufacturing operations for clinical scale development drugs; at such time, specialized or customized raw materials may be required.
Governmental Regulations
The Company does not need or require any approval from government authorities or agencies in order to operate the regular BPECS business and operations. In addition, any proposed expansion to the Company’s business, including in building its own equipment or conducting additional engineering work, is not expected to require government approvals.
The Company’s business is not impacted from governmental regulations, other than ordinary and customary regulations applicable to most business (such as business licenses, contractor’s licenses, etc.) At present, there are no governmental regulations that are expected to have any significant ongoing impact of an adverse nature on the business and operations of the Company. Specifically, the Company does not incur costs of a material amount in complying with any applicable environmental laws and regulations. However, the Company believes that it is possible that, in the future, regulations of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) are the most likely to potentially have an adverse effect on the business of the Company.
7 |
Marketing Strategy
The Company has conducted limited advertising and marketing to date as the primary focus of the Company since inception has been to concentrate on delivering service to clients. The Company has not given substantial attention to constructing the marketing strategy and plans that it will use to expand and grow its business over the longer term.
The Company eventually anticipates a modest budget and need for marketing activities. The primary focus of marketing campaigns will be designed to help the Company find new customers and to increase awareness of the services that the Company offers to its clients. The Company plans to rely on both traditional marketing and online marketing opportunities to increase awareness of its services.
Sales Strategy
The Company expects that its sales team will work closely with the marketing team to convert prospects into new customers. To date, the Company has developed a limited sales organization, but it expects to build a more active sales presence to position itself for growth and expansion. Until the present time, the Company has conducted all of its sales efforts through direct sales to its clients through personnel of the Company. In the future, the Company expects that it may hire additional personnel to support its sales efforts.
Relationship with Tiber Creek Corporation
In July 2011, the Company entered into an engagement agreement with Tiber Creek Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Tiber Creek”), whereby Tiber Creek would provide assistance in, among other things, effecting transactions for the Company to become a public reporting company, transferring control of a reporting company, entering into a business combination agreement with an operating company, causing the preparation and filing of forms (including a registration statement, with the Securities and Exchange Commission), and assisting in maintaining relationships with broker-dealers and market-makers.
Tiber Creek also received cash fees of $85,000 from the Company for its services. In addition, each of the Company’s then-current shareholders, Tiber Creek and MB Americus, LLC, a California limited liability company (“MB Americus”), were each permitted to retain 750,000 shares in the Company.
In general, Tiber Creek holds interests in inactive Delaware corporations which may be used by issuers (such as the Company) to reincorporate their business in the State of Delaware and capitalize the issuer at a level and in a manner (i.e. the number of authorized shares and rights and preferences of shareholders) that is appropriate for a public company. Otherwise, these corporations, such as Beachwood Acquisition Corporation, are inactive and Tiber Creek does not conduct any business in such corporations.
James Cassidy (an officer and director of Tiber Creek) and James McKillop (who is the sole owner of MB Americus, an affiliate of Tiber Creek) serve only as interim officers and directors of these corporations (such as Beachwood Acquisition Corporation) until such time as the changes of control in such corporations are effectuated to the ultimate registering issuers. As the role of Tiber Creek is essentially limited to preparing the corporate structure and organizing the Company for becoming a public company, the roles of Mr. Cassidy and Mr. McKillop are generally limited to facilitating such change of control and securities registration transactions.
Intellectual Property
At present, the Company does not possess any intellectual property protection. The Company may decide in the future to pursue efforts to protect its intellectual property, trade secrets and proprietary methods and processes.
Research and Development
As a services-oriented business, the Company has not to date undertaken, and does not currently plan to undertake, any material research and development activities in its operations.
Employees
The Company presently has one (1) employee, which consists of its one (1) executive officer. At present, the employee/officer receives a salary. No salaries or compensation have been accrued. The employee/officer will not receive any additional form of compensation until, and if, the Company raises or procures adequate capital (through operations, private financings, a primary public offering or otherwise) to pay any such additional form of compensation.
8 |
The Company currently has no employees other than its officer, but it expects that it will hire additional personnel as the Company implements its business plan.
Reports to Security Holders
The Company has filed a registration statement on Form S-1, under the Securities Act of 1933, with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the shares of its common stock. This prospectus is filed as a part of that registration statement, but does not contain all of the information contained in the registration statement and exhibits.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the other information included in this Annual Report, before making an investment decision. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could suffer. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. You should read the section entitled "Special Notes Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" for a discussion of what types of statements are forward-looking statements as well as the significance of such statements in the context of this report.
The Company’s operations business may not perform well as an entity separate from GMR.
Up until the time of the Acquisition, BPECS was a constituent part of the entity GMR. As such, BPECS benefited from the longstanding reputation and industry acceptance afforded to GMR, which has a track record of more than 16 years in the industry. The Company may not be able to continue to generate business, maintain client relationships and/or expand its operations as an entity that is separate from GMR. The Company has already received purchase order contracts for its services from a major pharmaceutical company and is in the process of fulfilling its contractual obligations under these projects (these purchase orders were initially received through GMR’s reputation with the client, which helped secured the first purchase order; however, all of the project execution and work under the purchase orders are the sole responsibility of the Company, and having already successfully completed work on one of the first contracts for the client, the Company is now an approved supplier of the client and solicits business from, and works directly with, the client free from the involvement of GMR). As such, the Company is currently performing three engineering service contracts that it was awarded in May and June of 2013.
The Company only has one significant customer relationship, which exposes the Company to a substantial client concentration risk.
As of December 31, 2013, the Company only had one significant customer relationship, and as such, the Company’s business is dependent on its existing customer relationship (subsequently, the Company has started doing work for two separate divisions of its major client and is also working on a project for another company). The Company is in the process of building additional customer relationships and seeking out new customers. However, until the Company obtains additional customers, the Company will be exposed to a substantial client concentration risk as a result of having only one customer relationship. The loss of this customer could have a severely adverse effect on the Company’s business and operations.

No assurance of continued market acceptance.
There can be no assurance that the Company’s services will have any competitive advantages. Also, there is no assurance that the market reception will be positive, or will continue at all, for BPECS.
It may be difficult for any prospective investor to properly assess the Company’s profitability or performance.
It is difficult for an investor to assess the performance of the Company or to determine whether the Company will meet its projected business plan. The Company has limited financial results upon which an investor may judge its potential, and has only recently become separate of GMR. The Company may in the future experience under-capitalization, shortages, setbacks and many of the problems, delays and expenses. An investor will be required to make an investment decision based solely on the Company management’s history and its projected operations in light of the risks, expenses and uncertainties that may be encountered by engaging in the Company’s industry. An investor will have to evaluate how the Company will perform without being a part of GMR on a forward-looking basis.
Even with the Company initially benefiting from its relationship with an established business such as GMR, there is risk still associated with both maintaining the existing business and growing the new business. There is also risk in maintaining or increasing profitability in these businesses. BPECS was an integral part of GMR’s success for over 16 years. The Company believes that the same overall business strategy, commitment to providing quality service, and key personnel instrumental in BPECS’ success, would all transfer as benefits and assets to the Company’s future success.
The Company has a small financial and accounting organization. Being a public company may strain the Company's resources, divert management’s attention and affect its ability to attract and retain qualified officers and directors.
The Company has a limited finance and accounting organization, and the rigorous demands of being a public company require a structured and developed finance and accounting group. As a reporting company, the Company is already subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. However, the requirements of these laws and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder entail significant accounting, legal and financial compliance costs which may be prohibitive to the Company as it operates and further develops its business, services and scope.. These costs have made, and will continue to make, some activities more difficult, time consuming or costly and may place significant strain on its personnel, systems and resources.
The Securities Exchange Act requires, among other things, that companies maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. In order to maintain the requisite disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, significant resources and management oversight are required. As a result, management’s attention may be diverted from other business concerns, which could have a material adverse effect on the development of the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
These rules and regulations may also make it difficult and expensive for the Company to obtain director and officer liability insurance. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate director and officer insurance, its ability to recruit and retain qualified officers and directors, especially those directors who may be deemed independent, will be significantly curtailed. The Company’s management is actively addressing this risk by working with experienced accountants who are working with the Company to create and implement the systems and procedures in place necessary to meet disclosure and financial reporting requirements.
If the Company is unable to generate sufficient cash from operations, it may find it necessary to curtail development and operational activities.
The Company has an extensive business plan to foster its growth and continued expansion. If the Company is unable to generate sufficient cash from its ongoing operations, then it would not be able to proceed with its business plan or possibly to successfully develop its planned expansion or broader operations at all.
The operations of the Company are speculative.
The success of the proposed business plan of the Company will depend to a great extent on the operations, financial condition and management of the Company. Although the Company has a business plan and intends to execute its overall business strategy, limited operations have been conducted to date as an entity separate from GMR. As minimal revenues have been finalized and consummated as a business separate from GMR, the proposed operations of the Company remain speculative. The Company completed its first independent contract with a major pharmaceutical company and booked revenue for this contract in the fourth quarter of 2012.

The Company may not be able to obtain capital necessary to carry out its intended business plans and operations.
The Company may require capital in order to implement its intended business plans and operations. If the Company is unable to generate such capital through operations or obtain such capital from third party sources (such as, without limitation, from other investors, banks and/or other lenders), the ability of the Company to succeed will be significantly harmed. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain any capital from outside sources.
One of the Company’s officers and directors beneficially owns and will continue to own a significant portion of the Company’s common stock and, as a result, can exercise control over stockholder and corporate actions.
Mr. Gary Riccio, the sole officer and director of the Company, is currently the beneficial owner of greater than 25% of the Company’s outstanding common stock and assuming sale of all the Shares, will still own a similar percentage of the Company’s then outstanding common stock upon closing of the offering. As such, he will be able to exercise significant control on matters requiring approval by stockholders, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This concentration of ownership may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on the market price of the Company’s common stock or prevent stockholders from realizing a premium over the market price for their Shares. The Company plans to address these risks by building a board of directors, business management infrastructure and technical services team.
The Company depends on its management to manage its business effectively.
The Company’s future success is dependent in large part upon its ability to understand and operate its business plan and to attract and retain highly skilled management, operational and executive personnel. In particular, due to the nature of the Company's business, its future success is highly dependent on its officers, to provide the necessary experience and background to execute the Company's business plan. The loss of any officer’s services, particularly Mr. Gary Riccio, could impede the Company’s ability to continue to operate, to grow its business and to develop its objectives, and as such, would negatively impact the Company's possible overall success.
Government regulation could negatively impact the business.
The Company’s business segments may be subject to various government regulations in the jurisdictions in which they operate, but the Company does not believe that any such regulations are outside of the ordinary course of most business enterprises (e.g. basic business licenses. etc). Due to the scope of the Company’s operations, the Company could potentially in the future be subject to regulation by various political and regulatory entities, including various local and municipal agencies and government sub-divisions. The Company may incur increased costs necessary to comply with existing and newly adopted laws and regulations or penalties for any failure to comply. The Company’s operations could be adversely affected, directly or indirectly, by existing or future laws and regulations relating to its business or industry. The most likely source of regulation that would adversely affect the business is the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
The Company anticipates that it will become directly subject to FDA regulations when the Company develops and builds its own modular clinical scale manufacturing facility. Based upon the Company’s longer-term business development plans stated below, it is anticipated that the time frame for reaching this FDA regulatory milestone will be in approximately 2017. The Company’s current longer-term business development plans are the following (which would involve FDA regulations of material impact beginning around 2017):
2014 and ongoing: | Develop and expand Engineering and Consulting Services Business |
2015 and thereafter: | Develop, Sell and Market Engineered Process Equipment |
2017 and thereafter: | Build Modular Clinical Scale Manufacturing Facility and Market Contract Manufacturing Service |
Complying with FDA regulations may be lengthy, expensive and uncertain. We have limited experience in establishing and ensuring such compliance. Regulatory authorities generally have substantial discretion in the application of regulations and determining compliance. Our future need to comply with FDA regulations may require us to expend more resources than we may have available. Our inability to comply with the FDA regulations could cause us to delay the implementation of our own modular clinical scale manufacturing facility, or cause the implementation to be more costly than we anticipate, our could prevent us from implementing our own modular clinical scale manufacturing facility at all. Any such delay, unanticipated cost overruns or inability to implement our own modular clinical scale manufacturing facility could have a severe adverse effect on the Company’s business and operations.

There has been no prior public market for the Company’s securities and the lack of such a market may make resale of the stock difficult.
No prior public market has existed for the Company’s securities and the Company cannot assure any investor that a market will develop subsequent to this offering. An investor must be fully aware of the long-term nature of an investment in the Company. The Company intends to apply for quotation of its common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board or OTC Markets as soon as possible which may be while this offering is still in process. However, the Company does not know if it will be successful in such application, how long such application will take, or, that if successful, that a market for the common stock will ever develop or continue on the OTC Bulletin Board. If for any reason the common stock is not listed on the OTC Bulletin Board or a public trading market does not otherwise develop, investors in the offering may have difficulty selling their common stock should they desire to do so. If the Company is not successful in its application for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board, it will apply to have its securities quoted by the Pink OTC Markets, Inc., real-time quotation service for over-the-counter equities.
The Company does not intend to pay dividends to its stockholders, so investors will not receive any return on investment in the Company prior to selling their interest in it.
The Company does not project paying dividends but anticipates that it will retain future earnings for funding the Company’s growth and development. Therefore, investors should not expect the Company to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. As a result, investors will not receive any return on their investment prior to selling their Shares in the Company, if and when a market for such Shares develops. Furthermore, even if a market for the Company’s securities does develop, there is no guarantee that the market price for the shares would be equal to or more than the initial per share investment price paid by any investor. There is a possibility that the Shares could lose all or a significant portion of their value from the initial price paid in this offering.
The Company’s stock may be considered a penny stock and any investment in the Company’s stock will be considered a high-risk investment and subject to restrictions on marketability.
If the Shares commence trading, the trading price of the Company's common stock may be below $5.00 per share. If the price of the common stock is below such level, trading in its common stock would be subject to the requirements of certain rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These rules require additional disclosure by broker-dealers in connection with any trades generally involving any non-NASDAQ equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Such rules require the delivery, before any penny stock transaction, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith, and impose various sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally institutions). For these types of transactions, the broker-dealer must determine the suitability of the penny stock for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transactions before sale. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in the Company’s common stock which could impact the liquidity of the Company’s common stock.
The Company's election not to opt out of JOBS Act extended accounting transition period may not make its financial statements easily comparable to other companies.
Pursuant to the JOBS Act of 2012, as an emerging growth company the Company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period for any new or revised accounting standards that may be issued by the PCAOB or the SEC. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the standard for the private company. This may make comparison of the Company's financial statements with any other public company which is not either an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible as possible different or revised standards may be used.
The recently enacted JOBS Act will also allow the Company to postpone the date by which it must comply with certain laws and regulations intended to protect investors and to reduce the amount of information provided in reports filed with the SEC.
The recently enacted JOBS Act is intended to reduce the regulatory burden on “emerging growth companies. The Company meets the definition of an emerging growth company and so long as it qualifies as an “emerging growth company,” it will, among other things:
be exempt from the provisions of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requiring that its independent registered public accounting firm provide an attestation report on the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting;
be exempt from the “say on pay” provisions (requiring a non-binding shareholder vote to approve compensation of certain executive officers) and the “say on golden parachute” provisions (requiring a non-binding shareholder vote to approve golden parachute arrangements for certain executive officers in connection with mergers and certain other business combinations) of the Dodd-Frank Act and certain disclosure requirements of the Dodd- Frank Act relating to compensation of its chief executive officer;
12 |
be permitted to omit the detailed compensation discussion and analysis from proxy statements and reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and instead provide a reduced level of disclosure concerning executive compensation; and
be exempt from any rules that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board requiring mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report on the financial statements.
Although the Company is still evaluating the JOBS Act, it currently intends to take advantage of some or all of the reduced regulatory and reporting requirements that will be available to it so long as it qualifies as an “emerging growth company”. The Company has elected not to opt out of the extension of time to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards available under Section 102(b) of the JOBS Act. Among other things, this means that the Company's independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to provide an attestation report on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting so long as it qualifies as an emerging growth company, which may increase the risk that weaknesses or deficiencies in the internal control over financial reporting go undetected. Likewise, so long as it qualifies as an emerging growth company, the Company may elect not to provide certain information, including certain financial information and certain information regarding compensation of executive officers that would otherwise have been required to provide in filings with the SEC, which may make it more difficult for investors and securities analysts to evaluate the Company. As a result, investor confidence in the Company and the market price of its common stock may be adversely affected.
In general, under the JOBS Act a company is an emerging growth company if its initial public offering ("IPO") of common equity securities was effected after December 8, 2011 and the company had less than $1 billion of total annual gross revenues during its last completed fiscal year. The Company will no longer qualify as an emerging growth company after the earliest of:
(i) the completion of the fiscal year in which the Company has total annual gross revenues of $1 billion or more,
(ii) the completion of the fiscal year of the fifth anniversary of the Company’s IPO;
(iii) the Company's issuance of more than $1 billion in nonconvertible debt in the prior three-year period, or
(iv) the Company becoming a "larger accelerated filer" as defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
The Company may face significant competition from companies that serve its industries.
The Company may face competition from other companies that offer similar solutions. Some of these potential competitors may have longer operating histories, greater brand recognition, larger client bases and significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources than the Company possesses. These advantages may enable such competitors to respond more quickly to new or emerging trends and changes in customer preferences. These advantages may also allow them to engage in more extensive market research and development, undertake extensive far-reaching marketing campaigns, adopt more aggressive pricing policies and make more attractive offers to potential customers, employees and strategic partners. The Company believes that its engineering expertise for providing turn-key biopharmaceutical manufacturing process solutions are, and will be, sufficiently different from existing competition, and that there is limited to no competition in its local area. However, it is nevertheless possible that potential competitors may have or may rapidly acquire significant market share. Increased competition may result in price reductions, reduced gross margin and loss of market share. The Company may not be able to compete successfully, and competitive pressures may adversely affect its business, results of operations and financial condition.
No formal market survey has been conducted.
No independent marketing survey has been performed to determine the continued and/or potential demand for the Company’s solutions. The Company has conducted no marketing studies regarding whether the Company’s services would actually be marketable on a larger scale or appeal to a wider set of clients. Moreover, the Company has not independently confirmed that its planned expansion of services responds to actual market needs. No assurances can be given that upon marketing, sufficient customer markets and business segments at BPECS can be developed to sustain the Company’s operations on a continued basis.
The Company may be subject to increasing environmental and regulatory restrictions and developments, which may result in increased costs, lower revenue and profits and/or difficulty in conducting business.
Current, or future, environmental regulations may affect the availability or cost of goods and services, such as natural resources, which are necessary to operate the Company’s business. Any violation of these laws could adversely affect the Company and its business. The Company’s operations may necessitate the use and handling of hazardous materials and, as a result, they may be subject to various federal, state, local and foreign laws, regulations and ordinances relating to the protection of the environment, including (without limitation) those regulations governing discharges to air and water, handling and disposal practices for solid and hazardous wastes, the cleanup of contaminated sites and the maintenance of a safe work place. These laws impose penalties, fines and other sanctions for noncompliance and liability for response costs, property damages and personal injury resulting from past and current spills, disposals or other releases of, or exposure to, hazardous materials. The Company could incur substantial costs as a result of noncompliance with or liability for cleanup or other costs or damages under these laws. The Company may become subject to more stringent environmental laws in the future. If more stringent environmental laws are enacted in the future, these laws could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations of the Company.

The Company has authorized the issuance of preferred stock with certain preferences.
The board of directors of the Company is authorized to issue up to 20,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value preferred stock. The board of directors has the power to establish the dividend rates, liquidation preferences, and voting rights of any series of preferred stock, and these rights may be superior to the rights of holders of the Shares. The board of directors may also establish redemption and conversion terms and privileges with respect to any shares of preferred stock. Any such preferences may operate to the detriment of the rights of the holders of the Shares, and further, could be used by the board of directors as a device to prevent a change in control of the Company. No such preferred shares or preferences have been issued to date, but such shares or preferences may be issued at a later time, subject to the sole discretion of the board of directors.
The Company failed to timely file a Form D
The Company did not timely file its Form D with the SEC as required under Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in connection with its sale of its common stock commencing in August 2011. The Company believes it has complied with the substance of Regulation D since the Company’s private offering met the requirements of Rule 506 of Regulation D, and the SEC compliance and disclosure interpretations state that the failure to file a Form D (or the untimely filing thereof) does not eliminate the availability of the securities exemption under Rule 506 of Regulation D pursuant to which the shares of common stock were sold. However, the Company’s late filing of the Form D could result in the SEC and state securities administrators issuing fines and/or denying the Company’s use of Regulation D in future private placements. Any such fines or inability to use Regulation D in future private placements could have a material adverse impact on the Company.
The Company does not maintain certain insurance, including errors and omissions and indemnification insurance.
The Company has limited capital and, therefore, does not currently have a policy of insurance against liabilities arising out of the negligence of its officers and directors and/or deficiencies in any of its business operations. Even assuming that the Company obtained insurance, there is no assurance that such insurance coverage would be adequate to satisfy any potential claims made against the Company, its officers and directors, or its business operations. Any such liability which might arise could be substantial and may exceed the assets of the Company. The certificate of incorporation and by-laws of the Company provide for indemnification of officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons, it is the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission that such indemnification is against public policy, as expressed in the Act, and is therefore, unenforceable.
Intellectual property and/or trade secret protection may be inadequate.
The Company has not yet applied for any intellectual property or trade secret protection on any aspects of its business, but the Company does have plans to obtain patents, copyright, trademarks and/or service marks on all of its equipment, solutions and services in a timeframe that most reasonably suits the Company’s overall best interests. However, there can be no assurance that the Company can obtain effective protection against unauthorized duplication or the introduction of substantially similar solutions and services.
The Company is subject to the potential factors of market and customer changes.
The business of the Company is susceptible to changing preferences of its clients. The needs of clients are subject to constant change. Although the Company intends to continue to develop and improve its services to meet changing customer needs and demands of the marketplace, there can be no assurance that funds for such expenditures will be available, that the Company's competition will not develop similar or superior capabilities or that the Company will be successful in its internal efforts. The future success of the Company will depend in part on its ability to respond effectively to rapidly changing trends, industry standards and customer requirements by adapting and improving the features of its offered services.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
On February 24, 2014, the Company completed an agreement to lease approximately 800 square feet of shared office space in Irvine, CA and is moving its operation to this location. The lease terms are month to month and the monthly rental payment is $ 219.00 per month. In the future, as may be needed by the future growth of the business, the Company may lease an operational facility that would allow the Company to expand manufacturing of certain components and equipment used in its business.

At the time of this report, the registration statement has not become effective and no sales can be made pursuant to the registration statement until it becomes effective.
Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for the Company’s common stock. No assurances can be given that a public market will develop following completion of this offering or that, if a market does develop, it will be sustained. The offering price for the Shares has been arbitrarily determined by the Company and does not necessarily bear any direct relationship to the assets, operations, book or other established criteria of value of the Company. The Shares will become tradable on the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part.
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
The Company has issued the following securities in the last three (3) years. All such securities were issued pursuant to an exemption from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as a transaction by an issuer not involving any public offering, as noted below.

Operating Loss; Net Loss
Our net loss decreased by $40,904 to $103,935 from $144,839, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to December 31, 2012. The decrease in net loss compared to the prior year period is primarily a result of increase in gross profit due to the acquisition of BPECS in October 2012 and the revenue generated from BPECS business and a decrease in professional fees which was higher in 2012 due to the acquisition of BPECS. These changes are detailed below.
Revenue
Our revenue from the year ended December 31, 2013 was $79,757 compared to $14,318 for the year ended December 31, 2012. All of our revenues in 2013 were derived from the operations of BPECS engineering contracts which were acquired in October 2012.
Cost of Goods Sold
Our cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2013 were $33,365, compared to $0 for 2012. Cost of goods sold represents the cost of equipment we purchase for resale to our clients and when delivered and installed we transfer the related cost from inventory to cost of sales.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses increased by $892, to $145,481for the year ended December 31, 2013, from $144,589 for the year ended December 31, 2012. The main components of general and administrative expenses in 2013 were $51,152 in accounting fees, $8,531 in legal fees, $48,000 in salaries, $7,401 in corporate and SEC filing fees and $20,397 in other office related expenses.
16 |
Research and Development
Our research and development cost were $4,534 for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to $14,568 for the year ended December 31, 2012. The decrease was attributable to more research and development cost were incurred after acquiring BPECS in the fourth quarter of 2012 on parts and software to build BioPharma’s prototype (GexPro)..
Salaries
Salaries for 2013 were $48,000 or 60% of revenues and for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $10,581 or 74% of revenues. As of December 31, 2013, the Company has only one full time employee.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At December 31, 2013, the Company held $202,254 in cash and cash equivalents. The Company has no continuous methods of generating cash other than by virtue of any profits from operations.
If the Company is not successful in generating sufficient revenues and/or obtaining additional funding to develop its business plan and proposed operations, this could have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations liquidity and financial condition.
There is no assurance that the Company’s activities will generate sufficient revenues to sustain its operations without additional capital, or if additional capital is needed, that such funds, if available, will be obtainable on terms satisfactory to the Company. Accordingly, given the Company’s limited cash and cash equivalents on hand, the Company will be unable to implement any of its proposed business plan expansion and any additional proposed operations unless it obtains additional financing or otherwise is able to generate revenues and profits. The Company may raise additional capital through sales of debt or equity, obtain loan financing or develop and consummate other alternative financial plans.
Critical Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
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 and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions included in the Company’s financial statements relate to estimate of loss contingencies and accrued other liabilities.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC 820-10 (formerly SFAS No. 157,Fair Value Measurements) requires entities to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities recognized and not recognized on the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. ASC 820-10 defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the carrying value of certain financial instruments such as accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and amounts due to/from related party approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of such instruments.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with ASC 350-30 (formerly SFAS No. 144,Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets), the Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their then carrying values may not be recoverable. When such factors and circumstances exist, the Company compares the projected undiscounted future cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amount. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value, based on market value when available, or discounted expected cash flows, of those assets and is recorded in the period in which the determination is made. The Company’s management currently believes there is no impairment of its long-lived assets. There can be no assurance however, that market conditions will not change or demand for the Company’s products under development will continue. Either of these could result in future impairment of long-lived assets.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Effective January 2012, FASB adopted ASU No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs (ASU 2011-04). ASU 2011-04 represents the converged guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) on fair value measurement. A variety of measures are included in the update intended to either clarify existing fair value measurement requirements, change particular principles requirements for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. For many of the requirements, the FASB does not intend to change the application of existing requirements under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. ASU 2011-04 was effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the financial statements.
In January 2012, FASB adopted ASU No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income (ASU 2011-05). ASU 2011-05 is intended to increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income and to facilitate convergence of accounting guidance in this area with that of the IASB. The amendments require that all nonowner changes in shareholders’ equity be presented in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-12, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05 (ASU 2011-12). ASU 2011-12 defers the provisions of ASU 2011-05 that require the presentation of reclassification adjustments on the face of both the statement of income and statement of other comprehensive income. Amendments under ASU 2011-05 that were not deferred under ASU 2011-12 will be applied retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the financial statements.
In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (ASU 2011-11). The amendments in ASU 2011-11 require the disclosure of information on offsetting and related arrangements for financial and derivative instruments to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. Amendments under ASU 2011-11 will be applied retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after January 1, 2013. The Company is evaluating the effect, if any, adoption of ASU 2011-11 will have on its financial statements.
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive (ASU 2013-02). This guidance is the culmination of the FASB’s deliberation on reporting reclassification adjustments from accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). The amendments in ASU 2013-02 do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income. However, the amendments require disclosure of amounts reclassified out of AOCI in its entirety, by component, on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes thereto. Amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income must be cross-referenced to other disclosures that provide additional detail. This standard is effective prospectively for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company is evaluating the effect, if any; the adoption of ASU 2013-02 will have on its financial statements.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB and the AICPA did not, or are not believed by management to, have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

Management's Report of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company's principal financial and accounting officer (who is the same person) conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013, based on the criteria establish in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company's internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2013, based on those criteria.
The Company's management has identified material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting related to the following matters:
A lack of sufficient segregation of duties. Specifically, this material weakness is such that the design over these areas relies primarily on defective controls and could be strengthened by adding preventative controls to properly safeguard company assets.
A lack of sufficient personnel in the accounting function due to the Company's limited resources with appropriate skills, training and experience to perform certain tasks as it relates to financial reporting.
The Company's plan to remediate those material weaknesses remaining is as follows:
Improve the effectiveness of the accounting group by continuing to augment existing resources with additional consultants or employees to improve segregation procedures and to assist in the analysis and recording of complex accounting transactions. The Company plans to mitigate the segregation of duties issues by hiring additional personnel in the accounting department once it generates significantly more revenue, or raises significant additional working capital.
Improve segregation procedures by strengthening cross approval of various functions including quarterly internal audit procedures where appropriate.
Anton & Chia the independent registered public accounting firm, has not issued an attestation report on the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting.
Changes In Internal Controls over Financial Reporting.
No changes were made in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION
There is no information required to be disclosed on Form 8-K during the fourth quarter covered by this Form 10-K not otherwise reported.
PART III
ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
The following table sets forth information regarding the members of the Company’s board of directors and its executive officers:
Name | Age | Position | Year Commenced |
Gary Riccio | 59 | President and Director | 2011 |
Gary Riccio
Mr. Riccio serves as the sole director and officer of the Company. He also holds the titles of Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company. Mr. Riccio obtained his Bachelor of Science Degree in Chemical Engineering in 1978 from Northeastern University and was elected to the Engineering Honor Society. From 1978 to 1986, Mr. Riccio was employed by Lever Brothers Division of Unilever as Project Engineer specializing in the Dove and Caress, Snuggle and Wisk product lines and specifically worked on the expansion of those facilities and processes. From 1987 to 1989, Mr. Riccio worked as Project Engineer for Vision Engineering, a software start-up company, on automation systems for companies within the chemical process, food and beverage and pharmaceutical industries. From 1989 to 1996, Mr. Riccio worked as General Manager of A-1 Refrigeration Company designing, installing and servicing custom large volume ice-making equipment and industrial refrigeration systems. During this period he was instrumental in increasing the product line from two to seven different models and expanded sales to overseas markets. In 1996, Mr. Riccio founded GMR Engineering, an engineering contracting firm specializing in automated computer systems for the biotech/pharmaceutical and food/beverage industries. He expanded this business to include process design and engineering, process validation and custom equipment manufacturing. Mr. Riccio resigned as an officer and director of GMR Engineering effective December 31, 2013.
19 |
His recent significant accomplishments include (i) the 2006 installation, programming and validation of Millipore Ultrafilitration Skids and Cold Water For Injection Generation, Storage and Distribution for Albumin Processing Department at Baxter BioScience, which receive FDA approval in November 2006; (ii) the 2010 control system design, programming, installation and validation of the Nanofiltration System for AHF-M Department; and (iii) the 2010 custom design, fabrication, automation and validation of the Nanofiltration System for Virus Removal currently approved by the FDA to begin manufacturing.
Director Independence
Pursuant to Rule 4200 of The NASDAQ Stock Market one of the definitions of an independent director is a person other than an executive officer or employee of a company. The Company's board of directors has reviewed the materiality of any relationship that each of the directors has with the Company, either directly or indirectly. Based on this review, the board has determined that there are no independent directors.
Committees and Terms
The Board of Directors (the “Board”) has not established any committees.
The Company will notify its stockholders for an annual shareholder meeting and that they may present proposals for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement to be mailed in connection with any such annual meeting; such proposals must be received by the Company at least 90 days prior to the meeting. No other specific policy has been adopted in regard to the inclusion of shareholder nominations to the Board of Directors.
Conflicts of Interest
There are no binding guidelines or procedures for resolving potential conflicts of interest. Failure by management to resolve conflicts of interest in favor of the Company could result in liability of management to the Company. However, any attempt by shareholders to enforce a liability of management to the Company would most likely be prohibitively expensive and time consuming.
Code of Ethics
Effective as of March 28, 2014, our board of directors adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to, among other persons, our president or chief executive officer as well as the individuals performing the functions of our chief financial officer, corporate secretary and controller. As adopted, our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics sets forth written standards that are designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:
· honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;
· full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that we file with, or submit to, the Securities and Exchange Commission and in other public communications made by us;
· the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics to an appropriate person or persons identified in the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics; and
· accountability for adherence to the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.
Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics requires, among other things, that all of our personnel be afforded full access to our president or chief executive officer with respect to any matter which may arise relating to the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. Further, all of our personnel are to be afforded full access to our board of directors if any such matter involves an alleged breach of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics by our president or chief executive officer.
20 |
In addition, our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics emphasizes that all employees, and particularly managers and/or supervisors, have a responsibility for maintaining financial integrity within our company, consistent with generally accepted accounting principles, and federal, provincial and state securities laws. Any employee who becomes aware of any incidents involving financial or accounting manipulation or other irregularities, whether by witnessing the incident or being told of it, must report it to his or her immediate supervisor or to our president or chief executive officer. If the incident involves an alleged breach of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics by our president or chief executive officer, the incident must be reported to any member of our board of directors or use of a confidential and anonymous hotline phone number. Any failure to report such inappropriate or irregular conduct of others is to be treated as a severe disciplinary matter. It is against our company policy to retaliate against any individual who reports in good faith the violation or potential violation of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics by another. Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is available, free of charge, to any stockholder upon written request to our Corporate Secretary at the address on the cover page of this Annual Report. A copy of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is also attached as an exhibit to this Annual Report.
Corporate Governance
The Company does not have a nominating nor audit committee of the board of directors. The board of directors currently performs the functions of the audit committee. The board of Directors consists of one director. At such time as the Company has a larger board of directors, the Company will propose creating committees of its board of directors, including both a nominating and an audit committee.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors, executive officers, and shareholders holding more than 10% of our outstanding Common Stock to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in beneficial ownership of our Common Stock. Executive officers, directors, and persons who own more than 10% of our Common Stock are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.
Based solely upon a review of Forms 3, 4, and 5 delivered to us as filed with the SEC during our most recent fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, none of our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of our Common Stock have timely filed the reports required pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.

The information in the table above is presented as of December 31, 2013, and includes information for BPECS.
The sole officer has received certain shares of common stock in the Company in connection with the Acquisition. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded any compensation expense in respect of any shares issued to the officers as such shares do not represent compensation that was paid to any officer.
No officer is subject to a compensation plan or arrangement that results from his or her resignation, retirement, or any other termination of employment with the Company or from a change in control of the company or a change in his or her responsibilities following a change in control. The members of the Board of Directors may receive, if the Board so decides, a fixed fee and reimbursement of expenses, for attendance at each regular or special meeting of the Board, although no such program has been adopted to date. The Company currently has no retirement, pension, or profit-sharing plan covering its officers and directors.
Employment Agreements
The Company has not entered into employment agreements with any of its employees or officers.
ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
James Cassidy is the sole owner and director of Tiber Creek Corporation which owns 750,000 shares of the Company's common stock. Tiber Creek has received consulting fees of $125,000 to date from the Company and also holds shares in the Company. Tiber Creek and its affiliate, MB Americus LLC, a California limited liability company, each currently hold 750,000 shares in the Company.
James Cassidy and James McKillop, who is the sole officer and owner of MB Americus, LLC, were both formerly officers and directors of the Company. As the organizers and developers of Beachwood Acquisition Corporation, Mr. Cassidy and Mr. McKillop were involved with the Company prior to the Acquisition. In particular, Mr. Cassidy provided services to the Company without charge, including preparation and filing of the charter corporate documents and preparation of the instant registration statement.
The Company is currently leasing its corporate office space from a office space owned by Mr. Riccio, who is an officer and director of the Company. Mr. Riccio is not presently charging the Company any rent or other lease costs associated with the rented space. There is no written agreement between Mr. Riccio and the Company regarding the lease, and the parties may terminate the lease arrangement at any time.
During 2011, the Company remitted payments aggregating $41,621 on behalf of GMR (an entity owned by Mr. Riccio and which is under common control with BPECS and the Company). The related entity has paid back these funds to the Company in 2012. The Company had acquired equipment pursuant to an understanding that it had with GMR, but the parties subsequently decided to cancel their arrangement. As a result, GMR reimbursed the Company for the cost of such equipment. No other payments are currently anticipated to be made by the Company on behalf of GMR.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
BioPharma Manufacturing Solutions Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of BioPharma Manufacturing Solutions, Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity 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 standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company was not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included 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 Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits include examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also include 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 the Company as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 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 1 to the financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $252,270 since inception. These conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 1, which includes the raising of additional equity financing. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

1. OVERVIEW
Organization
BioPharma Manufacturing Solutions Inc. (“BioPharma” or the “Company”), formerly Beachwood Acquisition Corporation, was incorporated on April 20, 2011 under the laws of the State of Delaware, and was originally incorporated to engage in any lawful corporate undertaking, including, but not limited to, selected mergers and acquisitions. In August 2011, there was a change of control of Beachwood Acquisition Corporation, and the Company changed its name to BioPharma Manufacturing Solutions Inc.
The Company provides engineering consulting services and custom manufactured process equipment to major biotech and pharmaceutical companies in the life sciences industry. The Company intends to take its clients’ manufacturing goals from concept to FDA approval and market realization. The Company will assist in the design of the process used to manufacture the client's product, typically pharmaceuticals, will procure and install the requisite manufacturing equipment, will assist in validation of the process and ready the system for FDA approval.
On October 11, 2012, BioPharma and GMR Engineering, Inc., executed an agreement where GMR Engineering Inc., agreed to transfer its BioPharmaceutical Process Engineering and Consulting Services (“BPECS”), a component of GMR Engineering Inc., to the Company in exchange for 1,000,000 shares of the voting common stock of BioPharma.
BioPharma had been in the developmental stage since inception and its operations limited to issuing shares to various investors until October 11, 2012. Subsequent to the acquisition, during the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company started recognizing revenue from its engineering and consulting services and is therefore no longer classified as a development stage enterprise. The Company is currently working on recently acquired service contracts.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying audited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and include all the notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for fair presentation of the financial statements have been included.
Going Concern
The Company has sustained losses since its inception on April 20, 2011. It has an accumulated deficit of $252,270 from inception through December 31, 2013. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, which it has not been able to accomplish to date, and /or obtain additional financing from its stockholders and/or other third parties.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2013 and 2012
1. OVERVIEW (continued)
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next fiscal year. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon financial support from its stockholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, successfully locating and negotiating with a business entity for the combination of that target company with the Company.
Management used their personal funds to pay all expenses incurred by the Company in 2013 and 2012. There is no assurance that the Company will ever be profitable. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The summary of significant accounting policies presented below is designed to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. Such financial statements and accompanying notes are the representations of the Company’s management, who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) in all material respects, and have been consistently applied in preparing the accompanying financial statements.
Use of Estimates
In preparing these financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, we consider the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of nonperformance. We use the following three levels of inputs in determining the fair value of our assets and liabilities, focusing on the most observable inputs when available:
· | Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. |
· | Level 2 - Quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. |
· | Level 3 - Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. |

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(continued)
To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s financial instruments include cash, prepaid expense and accrued liability. The estimated fair value of these instruments approximates its carrying amount due to the short maturity of these instruments.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash with high quality banking institutions. From time to time, the Company may maintain cash balances at certain institutions in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit.
Equipment, net
Equipment is stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated service lives of three years. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred and improvements are capitalized. Gains or losses on the disposition of equipment are recorded upon disposal. On September 24, 2013, the Company purchased $3,748 of equipment and depreciation expense amounted to $313 and $0 in the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 605, “Revenue Recognition”. In all cases, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.
Costs of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold includes cost of equipment purchased for resell to the customers when providing engineering consulting services.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(continued)
Income Taxes
Under ASC 740, "Income Taxes", deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are established when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were no deferred taxes.
Share Based Compensation
The Company applies ASC 718, Shares-Based Compensation to account for its service providers’ share-based payments. Common stock of the Company was given to service providers to retain their assistance in becoming a U.S. public company, assistance with public company regulations, investors’ communications and public relations with broker-dealers, market makers and other professional services.
In accordance with ASC 718, the Company determines whether a share payment should be classified and accounted for as a liability award or equity award. All grants of share-based payments to service providers classified as equity awards are recognized in the financial statements based on their grant date fair values which are calculated using historical pricing. The Company has elected to recognize compensation expense based on the criteria that the stock awards vest immediately on the issuance date. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent period if actual forfeitures differ from initial estimates. There were no forfeitures of share based compensation.
Net Loss per Common Share
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, "Earnings per Share". ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options, using the treasury stock method, and convertible preferred stock, using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Adopted
Effective January 2013, we adopted FASB ASU No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (ASU 2011-11). The amendments in ASU 2011-11 require the disclosure of information on offsetting and related arrangements for financial and derivative instruments to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. Amendments under ASU 2011-11 will be applied retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after January 1, 2013. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements(continued)
Adopted
Effective January 2013, we adopted FASB ASU No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive (ASU 2013-02). This guidance is the culmination of the FASB’s deliberation on reporting reclassification adjustments from accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). The amendments in ASU 2013-02 do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income. However, the amendments require disclosure of amounts reclassified out of AOCI in its entirety, by component, on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes thereto. Amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income must be cross-referenced to other disclosures that provide additional detail. This standard is effective prospectively for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the financial statements.
Not Adopted
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-04, Liabilities (Topic 405): Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date. The amendments in ASU 2013-04 provide guidance for the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of this Update is fixed at the reporting date, except for obligations addressed within existing guidance in U.S. GAAP. The guidance requires an entity to measure those obligations as the sum of the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors and any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. The guidance in this Update also requires an entity to disclose the nature and amount of the obligation as well as other information about those obligations. The amendment in this standard is effective retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. We are evaluating the effect, if any, adoption of ASU No. 2013-04 will have on our financial statements.
In April 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-07, Presentation of Financial Statements (Top 205): Liquidation Basis of Accounting. The objective of ASU No. 2013-07 is to clarify when an entity should apply the liquidation basis of accounting and to provide principles for the measurement of assets and liabilities under the liquidation basis of accounting, as well as any required disclosures. The amendments in this standard is effective prospectively for entities that determine liquidation is imminent during annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013, and interim reporting periods therein. We are evaluating the effect, if any, adoption of ASU No. 2013-07 will have on our financial statements.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, Income Taxes (Top 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. The objective of ASU No. 2013-11 is to provide guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net loss carryforward, similar tax loss, or tax credit carryforward exists. The amendments in this standard is effective for all entities that have unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists for fiscal years, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2013. We are evaluating the effect, if any, adoption of ASU No. 2013-11 will have on our financial statements.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.
3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
On October 11, 2012, the Company consummated the acquisition of BioPharmaceutical Process Engineering and Consulting Services (“BPECS”), a component of GMR Engineering Inc. (“GMR”), in a stock-for-assets transaction (the “Acquisition”). The Acquisition was effected by the Company through the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to the sole shareholder of GMR who also serves as the President and director of the Company. BPECS consists of the components of GMR which comprise its consulting, design and engineering services. The purpose of the Acquisition was to transition the customers and the services business of GMR (via BPECS) to the Company. No physical assets were transferred as part of the Acquisition. The total net carrying value of the intangible assets acquired was nil. Accordingly the Company has recorded the 1,000,000 shares of common stock issued at par value with the corresponding offset to common stock discount.
During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company’s President paid certain operating expenses, consisting of salaries and overhead expenses, on behalf of the Company. These expenses amounted to $55,505 and $18,835, respectively, and have been recorded to additional paid-in capital as a shareholder contribution.
4. INCOME TAXES
Our provisions for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, were as follows (using our blended effective Federal and State income tax rate of 35.0%):

Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and similar California rules place a limitation on the amount of taxable income that can be offset by net operating loss carryforwards (“NOL”) after a change in control (generally greater than a 50% change in ownership). Transactions such as planned future sales of our common stock may be included in determining such a change in control. These factors give rise to uncertainty as to whether the net deferred tax assets are realizable. We have approximately $252,000 in NOL at December 31, 2013 that will begin to expire in 2031 for federal and state purposes and could be limited for use under IRC Section 382. We have recorded a valuation allowance against the entire net deferred tax asset balance due because we believe there exists a substantial doubt that we will be able to realize the benefits due to our lack of a history of earnings and due to possible limitations under IRC Section 382. A reconciliation of the expected tax benefit computed at the U.S. federal and state statutory income tax rates to our tax benefit for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 is as follows:

We file income tax returns in the U.S. with varying statutes of limitations.

There were no accrued interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2013 and 2012. We have no unrecognized tax benefits and thus no interest or penalties included in the financial statements.
5. STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY
During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company issued 1,850,000 shares of its common stock at $0.001 per share to five investors for the total price of $15,350.
During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company redeemed 2,000,000 shares of common stock owned by two shareholders for aggregate consideration paid of $20,000.
As discussed in Note 3, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock to its President in connection with the acquisition of BPECS.
During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company redeemed 200,000 shares of common stock owned by two shareholders for aggregate consideration paid of $200.
