Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1 – Basis of presentation
The interim financial statements included herein, presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles and stated in US dollars, have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. It is suggested that these condensed interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2013 and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim reports.
Results of operations for the interim periods are not indicative of annual results.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Cash and cash equivalents
For purpose of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers cash and cash equivalents to include all stable, highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less.
Concentration of credit risk
The Company primarily transacts its business with one financial institution. The amount on deposit in that one institution may from time to time exceed the federally-insured limit.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Income taxes
The Company accounts for its income taxes under the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” The method of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740 is an asset and liability method. The asset and liability method requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between tax bases and financial reporting bases of other assets and liabilities.
Revenue recognition
The Company recognizes revenues from sales of products when the items have shipped and title has transferred to the purchaser.
Accounts receivable
Accounts receivable is reported at the customers’ outstanding balances, less any allowance for doubtful accounts. Interest is not accrued on overdue accounts receivable.
Inventory
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market (net realizable value).
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Major renewals and improvements are charged to the asset accounts while replacements, maintenance and repairs that do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are expensed. At the time property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the asset and related accumulated depreciation accounts are relieved of the applicable amounts. Gains or losses from retirements or sales are credited or charged to income.
Depreciation is computed on the straight-line and accelerated methods for financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes based upon the following estimated useful lives:
Computer equipment | 3 years |
Computer hardware | 5 years |
Office furniture | 7 years |
Long-lived assets
The Company accounts for its long-lived assets in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360-10-05, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” ASC Topic 360-10-05 requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the carrying value of an asset by estimating the future net cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual disposition. If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and fair value or disposable value. The Company determined that none of its long-term assets at June 30, 2014 were impaired
The Company's intangible assets consist of the costs of filing and acquiring various patents and trademarks. The trademarks are recorded at cost. The Company determined that the trademarks have an estimated useful life of approximately 11 years and will be reviewed annually for impairment. Amortization will be recorded over the estimated useful life of the assets using the straight-line method for financial statement purposes.
Stock-based compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based payments to employees in accordance with ASC 718, “Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Stock-based payments to employees include grants of stock, grants of stock options and issuance of warrants that are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations based on their fair values at the date of grant.
The Company accounts for stock-based payments to non-employees in accordance with ASC 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees.” Stock-based payments to non-employees include grants of stock, grants of stock options and issuances of warrants that are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations based on the value of the vested portion of the award over the requisite service period as measured at its then-current fair value as of each financial reporting date. The Company calculates the fair value of option grants and warrant issuances utilizing the Binomial pricing model. The amount of stock-based compensation recognized during a period is based on the value of the portion of the awards that are ultimately expected to vest. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time stock options are granted and warrants are issued to employees and non-employees, and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The term “forfeitures” is distinct from “cancellations” or “expirations” and represents only the unvested portion of the surrendered stock option or warrant.
Stock-based compensation (continued)
The Company estimates forfeiture rates for all unvested awards when calculating the expense for the period. In estimating the forfeiture rate, the Company monitors both stock option and warrant exercises as well as employee termination patterns. The resulting stock-based compensation expense for both employee and non-employee awards is generally recognized on compensation under ASC Topic 505-50, In accordance with ASC 505-50, the cost of stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the vesting period. The value of the stock-based award is determined using the Binomial or Black-Scholes option-pricing models, whereby compensation cost is the excess of the fair value of the award as determined by the pricing model at the grant date or other measurement date over the amount that must be paid to acquire the stock. The resulting amount is charged to expense on the straight-line basis over the period in which the Company expects to receive the benefit, which is generally the vesting period.
Loss per share
The Company reports earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260-10, "Earnings per Share." Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares available. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Diluted earnings (loss) per share has not been presented since the effect of the assumed conversion of warrants and debt to purchase common shares would have an anti-dilutive effect.
Recent accounting pronouncements
The Company continually assesses any new accounting pronouncements to determine their applicability to the Company. Where it is determined that a new accounting pronouncement affects the Company’s financial reporting, the Company undertakes a study to determine the consequence of the change to its financial statements and assures that there are proper controls in place to ascertain that the Company’s financials properly reflect the change.
Note 3 – Going concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred a net loss of $800,658 and $3,209,354 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively and has an accumulated deficit of $9,049,605.
In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. The Company is significantly dependent upon its ability, and will continue to attempt, to secure equity and/or additional debt financing. There are no assurances that the Company will be successful and without sufficient financing it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might arise from this uncertainty.

NOTE 6 – LINE OF CREDIT – RELATED PARTY
On November 15, 2011, the Company executed a revolving credit line with a related party for up to $150,000. The related party was an entity that is owned and controlled by an officer of the Company.
On November 15, 2012, the lender agreed to increase the credit line up to $200,000, extend the maturity date to March 31, 2013 and to decrease the interest rate from 30% to 15% per annum. On April 1, 2013, the lender agreed to a further increase up to $300,000 and to extend the maturity date to December 31, 2013, which was subsequently extended to March 31, 2015. As of June 30, 2014, the Company has drawn down a total of $484,000 and repaid $253,500 leaving a principal balance owed of $230,500.

Overview of Operations
Our flagship product “NOHO®” – The Hangover Defense® (“NOHO”) is a dietary supplement, taken before or during the consumption of alcohol that may help to prevent the symptoms associated with a hangover. NOHO was formulated by a Doctor of Pharmacy and comes in a 2 ounce “shot” that can be consumed on a stand-alone basis or as a mixer available in an 8.4 ounce can that can be consumed by itself or mixed with an alcoholic drink. It is recommended that the 2 ounce shot be taken as the first and last shot of the night, while the mixer can be consumed alone or mixed with subsequent drinks. NOHO has a refreshing flavor, containing no caffeine or stimulants. Although the method by which NOHO works has not been confirmed through clinical testing, field tests conducted throughout the country have demonstrated NOHO’s effectiveness. NOHO is intended to pre-plenish common electrolytes and trace elements lost by alcohol consumption.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenues
Comparison of the three month period ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.
Total net revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2014 was $283,640 as compared to $100,355 for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $132,035 and $44,411, respectively. Additionally, during the three months ended June 30, 2014, the cost of goods sold was $151,605 as compared to $55,944 for the three months ended June 30, 2013. The decrease in total net revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to three months ended June 30, 2013, was due to continuing efforts with regards to consumer education, as well as international expansion. This new focus took time away from domestic sales, but will allow us to grow our brand internationally.
Comparison of the six month period ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.
Total net revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $430,641 as compared to $277,978 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $204,267 and $(3,857), respectively. Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2014, the cost of goods sold was $226,374 as compared to $281,835 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.
Operating Expenses
Comparison of the three month period ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.
Operating expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2014 were $873,739, of which $40,000 was for consulting fees, $565,014 was for compensation expense, $135,574 was for general and administrative costs, $76,395 was for professional fees, $20,544 was for promotional and marketing, and the remaining $36,212 was related to selling expense. In comparison, operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2013 were $531,707. The increase in professional fees was due to increased legal and accounting work. Additionally, the increase in compensation expense and consulting fees was a result of issuance of equity compensation to company executives and other partners, this compensation is not cash compensation and was based on the stock price at time of issuance.
Comparison of the six month period ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.
Operating expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2014 were $3,301,324 of which $164,209 was for consulting fees, $2,642,059 was for compensation expense, $218,782 was for general and administrative costs, $119,528 was for professional fees, $38,344 was for promotional and marketing, and the remaining $118,402 was related to selling expense. In comparison, operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2013 were $972,312.
Net Loss
As a result of the foregoing, we reported a net loss attributable to common shareholders for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 of $800,658 and $539,727, respectively.
Our net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $3,209,354 as compared to $1,057,061 for the comparable six month period in 2013, an increase in net loss of $2,152,293 which is significantly related to our increase in compensation expense. As we achieve an increase to our existing market share, with an expected result of greater net revenues over the next twelve months, we expectantly would also anticipate a relative decrease in net loss as a direct result.
Plan of Operations
We intend to use our cash reserves to fund further marketing, manufacture, distribution and product development activities. We expect to receive a certain amount of additional funds, either through the sale of equity, obtaining debt financing or through sales of our products, but this is not assured and, otherwise, we do not currently have any alternative source of revenues.
In the event that additional financing is delayed or the Company does not generate enough revenues to meet its needs, the Company will scale down its operations. However, in that case, the marketing, development, manufacture and distribution of its products would be diminished, delayed, or even halted. In the event of an ongoing lack of financing, we may be obliged to discontinue operations, which will adversely affect the value of our common stock.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The following table summarizes total current assets and total current liabilities at June 30, 2014 compared to December 31, 2013 (restated).

Cash Flows

Operating Activities
Net cash used by operating activities was $475,804 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to $(700,625) used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The increase in net cash used in operating activities was primarily due to an increase in contract labor and increases in professional fees, as a result of increased legal work and accounting work.
Financing activities and future financings
Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $457,000, as compared to $596,811 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The increase of net cash provided by financing activities was mainly attributable to capital provided through private placements of the Company’s common stock and proceeds from notes payable of related party loans.
We will continue to rely on revenues generated from sales of products and equity sales of our common shares in order to continue to fund our expanding business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of the equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our operations and other activities.
Cash Requirements
Our cash on hand as of June 30, 2014 was $NIL. The Company has incurred a net loss of $(2,992,899) for the six months period ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $(1,057,061) at June 30, 2013. While the Company has recognized revenues from operations, the revenues generated are not sufficient to sustain operations. The Company does have sufficient funds to acquire new business assets and maintain its existing operations at this time.
Future Financings
We will continue to rely on equity sales of our common shares in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of the equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund planned acquisitions and exploration activities.

The amounts presented in the financial statements do not provide for the effect of inflation on our operations or financial position. The net operating losses shown would be greater than reported if the effects of inflation were reflected either by charging operations with amounts that represent replacement costs or by using other inflation adjustments.

Contractual Obligations
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. A complete summary of these policies is included in note 1 of the notes to our financial statements contained herein. In general, management's estimates are based on historical experience, information from third party professionals, and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.
ITEM 4. | Controls and Procedures |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by our company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act").
Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2014, due to the material weaknesses resulting from the Board of Directors not currently having any independent members and no director qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K, and controls were not designed and in place to ensure that all disclosures required were originally addressed in our financial statements.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management has also evaluated our internal control over financial reporting, and there have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect those controls subsequent to the date of our last evaluation.
The Company is not required by current SEC rules to include, and does not include, an auditor's attestation report. The Company's registered public accounting firm has not attested to Management's reports on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Other than as previously reported on our annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the SEC on June 17, 2014 , we know of no material, existing or pending legal proceedings against our Company, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which our director, officer or any affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.
