Organization And Description Of Business | |
ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS | NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Organization The business focus of Capstone Financial Group, Inc. (the "Company") is to invest in equity securities of other companies. The Company seeks to discover, unlock and grow value in privately-held or illiquid companies, including through the exercise of friendly influence at a company in support of operational improvements and strategic initiatives. In some cases, the Company might be one of the largest shareholders of the other company. The Company seeks to work closely and constructively with the management and boards of the other companies. While the Company does not manage the day-to-day operations of these companies, the Company seeks to maintain a thorough understanding of how they operate and evaluate their performance and prospects on an ongoing basis. The Company may also seek to actively trade in its strategic investment positions and/or enter into private securities transactions with regard to those positions, to capitalize on price fluctuations and realize profits or minimize losses. The Company was incorporated on July 10, 2012 under the laws of the State of Nevada, as Creative App Solutions, Inc. On August 23, 2013, the Company amended its articles of incorporation and changed its name to Capstone Financial Group, Inc. Through December 31, 2012, the Company had not commenced significant operations and, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 915, the Company was considered a development stage company. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company exited the development stage. Effective in 2014, the Company transitioned its business plan to its current business focus. At June 30, 2015 the Companys investments are entirely focused in one entity, Twinlab Consolidated Holdings, Inc. (Twinlab). Management believes that it will be able to liquidate a sufficient portion of its investment and/or raise additional capital to avoid and/or satisfy its call obligations as and when they become due and/or are exercised. However, no assurance can be given that market conditions in the future will continue to allow the Company to sell its investments in sufficient quantities to enable full warrant exercises or to raise additional capital to do so (see Note 6). |

BASIS OF PRESENTATION | NOTE 2 BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of have been prepared in accordance with financial reporting conventions of the investment company industry and United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2014, included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 30, 2015. The unaudited condensed financial statements contain all normal recurring accruals and adjustments that in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company at June 30, 2015, the results of the Companys operations for the three months and six months periods ended June 30, 2015 and the Companys cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2015. It should be understood that accounting measurements at interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than at year-end. The results of operations for the three months and six months periods ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any future interim periods. |

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | NOTE 4 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS GAAP defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation methodologies into the following three levels: Level 1 Level 2 Level 3: The Companys financial instruments are valued by level within the fair value hierarchy. Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The valuation methodology for each investment type and discussion of key unobservable inputs is described below. Common Stocks Generally, when the Company invests in common stocks that are traded on the NASDAQ Markets or over-the-counter markets (such as the OTCBB, OTCQB or OTC Pink marketplaces), such common stocks are valued at the last traded price. If there is no trade on a measurement date, the Company will typically value the common stock at the closing bid price. However, in certain circumstances, the closing trading price is not considered to be a fairindication ofthe value for which the Company can sell the common stock. In such cases, the common stock must be analyzed to determine what exit price the Company would receive when liquidating the position. Investments in non-marketable common stocks at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were valued based on subsequent transactions with unrelated third parties. These positions are classified as Level 3 securities by the Company. Derivative Financial Instruments Derivative financial instruments include call and put options and warrants at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Derivatives are accounted for at fair value with changes in fair value reported in operations. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Companys derivative financial instruments include the underlying common stock, duration, volatility and discount rate, which are used in the Black-Scholes and Monte Carlo valuation models. Changes to any of those inputs in isolation would result in fluctuations in the fair value measurement. |

Risks and Uncertainties [Abstract] | |
MARKET, CREDIT AND LIQUIDITY RISK | NOTE 5 MARKET, CREDIT AND LIQUIDITY RISK Market risk is the potential loss the Company may incur as a result of changes in the market or fair value of a particular financial instrument. Risks arise in options and warrant contracts from changes in the market or fair value of their underlying financial instruments. Credit risk is the potential loss the Company may incur as a result of the failure of a counterparty or an issuer to make payments according to the terms of a contract. Credit risk can arise from investment activities in financially distressed issuers. To manage this risk, the Company may seek to diversify its investment portfolio with respect to specific credits, sectors and asset classes. The Company is also subject to market concentration risk since a significant portion of its investment portfolio has similar characteristics, and is therefore affected similarly by changes in economic conditions. Investments of the Company trade in relatively thin markets and throughout the year, depending upon market conditions, may be considered illiquid. As a result, the market values can be more volatile and difficult to determine relative to other securities. In addition, if the Company is required to liquidate all or a portion of its portfolio quickly, it may realize significantly less than the value at which it previously recorded its financial instruments. |

Financial instruments, net are comprised of the following at December 31, 2014. Cost Estimated Fair Value ASSETS Common Stocks $ 6,212 $ 8,018,621 2014 Call Options 2,492 6,644,680 Series A Warrants 9,947,368 Series B Warrants 4,227,632 $ 8,704 $ 28,838,301 LIABILITIES Warrant Put Option $ $ (9,973,684 ) During the first quarter of 2014, the Company purchased shares in a company (other than Twinlab) traded on the OTC Markets for a total of $2,919. The Company currently categorizes these holdings as Level 3 assets. As of June 30, 2015, this investment is carried at $0 value under managements valuation guidelines. In August 2014, the Company purchased 10,987,500 split-adjusted shares of common stock of Twinlab in private transactions from 25 shareholders for total consideration of $3,296. In August 2014, the Company purchased options to acquire 8,743,000 outstanding shares of Twinlabs Common Stock (collectively, the 2014 Call Options) in a private transaction from 14 stockholders, for total consideration of $2,623. The 2014 Call Options exercise price is $0.0001 per share and the 2014 Call Options expire in August 2015. Such options are immediately exercisable and in February 2015, the Company exercised 7,244,500 of those options. In September 2014, Twinlab issued to the Company a Series A Warrant to purchase up to 52,631,579 shares of Twinlabs Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.76 per share (the Series A Warrant) and a Series B Warrant to purchase up to 22,368,421 shares of Twinlabs Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.76 per share (the Series B Warrant). Both the Series A Warrant and the Series B Warrant were exercisable from October 2014 through October 2017. Twinlab and the Company also entered into a Common Stock Put Agreement, dated as of September 30, 2014, as amended on December 15, 2014 (the Put Agreement). Pursuant to the Put Agreement, if the Company did not exercise the Series A Warrant by February 16, 2015 and thereafter at a rate of no less than 1,461,988 shares of Common Stock (the Minimum Amount) per month (the Minimum Rate) over the term of the Series A Warrant, Twinlab had the right (subject to certain conditions) to require the Company to exercise the Series A Warrant at the Minimum Rate for the duration of the Series A Warrant. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company sold an aggregate of 3,976,647 units of Twinlab securities to various unrelated third party accredited investors. Each unit consisted of one share of (unrestricted) Twinlab common stock and a detachable call option to purchase from the Company, for $1.00 per share, one (restricted) share of Twinlab common stock. The term of each such call option was three years from the respective unit sale date. Twinlab and the Company also entered into a Compromise Agreement and Release and an Amendment No. 1 to Series B Warrant, each dated as of May 28, 2015, pursuant to which, among other things: (a) the Company surrendered the entire remaining-unexercised portion of the Series A Warrant (51,973,684 warrants) and 4,368,421 of the warrants under the Series B Warrant; (b) the Put Agreement was terminated; (c) the remaining 18,000,000 warrants under the Series B Warrant were deemed divided into four tranches, each with an associated date beyond which it would no longer be exercisable: one tranche for 2,000,000 warrant shares (no longer exercisable after November 30, 2015), one for 4,000,000 warrant shares (no longer exercisable after March 31, 2016), one for 6,000,000 warrant shares (no longer exercisable after July 31, 2016) and another for 6,000,000 warrant shares (no longer exercisable after November 30, 2016); and (d) the Company granted Twinlab three contingent call options, at $0.01 per share, to acquire Twinlab shares from the Company to the extent that upon effective expiration of the second, third and fourth tranches the Company had not exercised the warrants within such tranches (the Contingent Call Options). The three Contingent Call Options would be for a number of Twinlab shares equal to 25% of such unexercised warrants (i.e., a maximum of 1,000,000 shares if the Company exercised no warrants from the second tranche, a maximum of 1,500,000 shares if the Company exercised no warrants from the third tranche and a maximum of 1,500,000 shares if the Company exercised no warrants from the fourth tranche). In addition, Twinlab cannot exercise a Contingent Call Option unless it has satisfied such options Liquidity Condition, namely that for each of the three or four months before the tranches effective expiration date Twinlab must have a financial position sufficient to show a 1.15x fixed charge coverage ratio for a certain trailing period, all as defined by Twinlabs Credit and Security Agreement dated January 22, 2015. Twinlab also agreed in the Compromise Agreement and Release that, given that the Company has identified, and may in the future identify, to Twinlab on a confidential basis persons to whom the Company might sell the Companys Twinlab shares, Twinlab shall not, without the Companys prior written consent, privately place Twinlab equity securities to any persons theretofore or thereafter first introduced to Twinlab by the Company; provided that Twinlab may, without the Companys consent, privately place Twinlab equity securities to such a person at any time after the earlier of (a) the date the entire Series B Warrant has expired and/or been exercised, or (b) the first anniversary of such particular introduction. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company's financial instruments recorded at fair value have been categorized based upon a fair value hierarchy. The following fair value hierarchy table presents information about the Company's financial instruments measured at fair value.

For some products or in certain market conditions, observable inputs used in valuing certain financial assets and liabilities were unavailable. In situations where there is little, if any, market activity for an asset or liability at the measurement date, the fair value measurement objective remains to measure the financial asset at the price that would be received by the holder of the financial asset (or liability) in an orderly transaction that is not a forced liquidation or distressed sale at the measurement date. The following table presents a summary of changes in the fair value amounts of the financial instruments classified within Level 3 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
INCOME TAXES | NOTE 7 INCOME TAXES The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Income tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $1,443,046 at an effective tax rate of 40.33%, which was greater than the federal statutory rate due to the state income tax expense. The impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more likely than not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant tax authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. The disclosures regarding the Company's unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2014 included in the Company's 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K continue to be relevant for the periods ended June 30, 2015 as to the Companys unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2015. |
