PART I

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains certain forward-looking statements, including information about or related to our future results, certain projections and business trends. We intend for our forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are including this statement for purposes of invoking these safe harbor provisions.

Assumptions relating to forward-looking statements involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control. When used in this report, the words “believes,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “seeks,” “will,” “may,” “should,” “would,” “projects,” “predicts,” “continues,” and similar expressions or the negative of these terms constitute forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

Although we believe that our assumptions underlying our forward-looking statements are reasonable, any or all of the assumptions could prove inaccurate, and we may not realize the results contemplated by our forward-looking statements. Indeed, because our forward-looking statements are not historical facts, are based largely upon our current expectations and assumptions, and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, our actual results could differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. Moreover, management decisions are subjective in many respects and susceptible to interpretations and periodic revisions based upon actual experience and business developments, the impact of which may cause us to alter our business strategy or capital expenditure plans that may, in turn, cause our actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by our forward-looking statements.

We have historically relied on Dorman Industries, LLC to fund our ongoing administrative expenses.  Dorman Industries, LLC has recently advised us that it will not fund our ongoing expenses after this Annual Report on Form 10-K is filed. Therefore, unless we find an alternative source of funding or acquire an operating business, we will be unable to continue our ongoing reporting obligations and this may be the last filing we make with the SEC.  We cannot assure you that we will be successful in our efforts to locate financing or acquire an operating business or that any such acquisition will result in our future profitability. Our failure to successfully find alternative financing sources will result in our no longer being able to make public filings and could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock and our ability to acquire a target business. Our failure to successfully acquire an operating business could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock and our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking information included in this report, you should not regard the inclusion of such information as our representation that we will achieve any strategy, objectives or other plans. The forward-looking statements contained in this report speak only as of the date of this report, and we have no obligation to update publicly or revise any of these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available or other events occur.

Item 1.          Business.

Corporate History

Prior to April 1, 2004, Sandston Corporation was named Nematron Corporation (“Nematron” or the “Company”), which was incorporated in Michigan in October 1983. In 1986, Nematron became a wholly owned subsidiary of Interface Systems, Inc. (“Interface”). The former business of Nematron was the design, manufacture and marketing of factory automation products, including computer hardware and software products. On March 31, 2004 Nematron sold to NC Acquisition Corp. (“NCAC”) all of its tangible and intangible assets, including its real estate, accounts, equipment, intellectual property, inventory, goodwill and other intangibles, and all subsidiaries except for $30,000 in cash, (the “Net Asset Sale”). NCAC also assumed all of Nematron’s liabilities pursuant to the Net Asset Sale. Following the Net Asset Sale, Nematron’s only remaining assets were $30,000 in cash; it retained no liabilities. Pursuant to the Net Asset Sale, and effective April 1, 2004, the Company has no subsidiaries. On April 1, 2004 NCAC amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name to Sandston Corporation (the “Company”) and implemented a shareholder-approved one-for-five reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock. Also, on April 1, 2004 the Company sold a total of 5,248,257 post-split shares to Dorman Industries, LLC (“Dorman Industries”) for $50,000. Dorman Industries is a Michigan limited liability company wholly owned by Mr. Daniel J. Dorman, who became the Company’s Chairman of the Board, CEO, and President following such stock purchase. By virtue of its purchase of common stock, Dorman Industries became the owner of 62.50% of the outstanding common stock of the

3

Company, and currently is the beneficial owner of 69.28% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. Patricia A. Dorman, Mr. Dorman’s wife, is the beneficial owner of an additional 3.32% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

The Company intends to build long-term shareholder value by acquiring and/or investing in and operating strategically positioned companies. The Company expects to target companies in multiple industry groups. The Company has yet to acquire, or enter into an agreement to acquire, any company or business operations. See Item 1A. Risk Factors.

The Company’s principal executive offices are located at 1496 Business Park Drive, Suite A, Traverse City, Michigan 49868, and its telephone number is (248) 723-3007.

Description of Business

The business of the Company since April 1, 2004 includes only its consideration of various investment opportunities and incurring administrative expenses related to legal, accounting and administrative activities. The Company has had no revenue generating activities since April 1, 2004, nor has it had any employees since that date. The administrative activities of the Company are performed by the Chairman, who also serves as the CEO, President and Principal Financial Officer. Direct administrative expenses of the Company totaled $33,145 and $27,368 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Human Capital Resources

The Company has no employees.

Item 1A.Risk Factors.

In addition to other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the following risk factors should be carefully considered in evaluating our business because such factors may have a significant impact on our business, operating results, liquidity and financial condition. As a result of the risk factors set forth below, actual results could differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently consider to be immaterial, may also impact our business, operating results, liquidity and financial condition. If any of the following risks occur, our business, operating results, liquidity and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our securities could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

RISKS RELATED TO SANDSTON CORPORATION

WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO CONTINUE TO MAKE PUBLIC FILINGS UNLESS WE FIND A SOURCE OF FINANCING

We have historically relied on Dorman Industries, LLC to fund our ongoing administrative expenses. Dorman Industries, LLC has recently advised us that it will not fund our ongoing expenses after this Annual Report on Form 10-K is filed. Therefore, unless we find an alternative source of funding or acquire an operating business, we will be unable to continue our ongoing reporting obligations and this may be the last filing we make with the SEC.  We cannot assure you that we will be successful in our efforts to locate financing or acquire an operating business or that any such acquisition will result in our future profitability. Our failure to successfully find alternative financing sources will result in our no longer being able to make public filings and could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock and our ability to acquire a target business. Our failure to successfully acquire an operating business could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock and our business, financial condition and results of operations.

WE HAVE HAD NO OPERATING HISTORY SINCE APRIL 2004 AND NO REVENUES OR EARNINGS FROM OPERATIONS SINCE APRIL 2004

We have had no operations, revenues, or earnings since April 2004. We have no material assets. We will, in all likelihood, sustain operating expenses without corresponding revenues, at least until the consummation of a business combination. This may result in us incurring a net operating loss that will increase continuously until we can consummate a business combination with a profitable business entity. There is no assurance that we can continue financing our administrative expenses out of available funds or that we will be able to raise additional funds to cover any shortfall. There is no assurance that we can identify such a business entity and consummate such an agreement or combination.

4

WE WILL HAVE NO OPERATING HISTORY AND THEREFORE WE WILL BE SUBJECT TO THE RISKS INHERENT IN ESTABLISHING A NEW BUSINESS

We have not identified what our new line of business will be; therefore, we cannot fully describe the specific risks presented by such business. It is likely that we will have had no operating history in the new line of business and it is possible that the target company may have a limited operating history in its business. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that our future operations will generate operating or net income, and as such our success will be subject to the risks, expenses, problems and delays inherent in establishing a new line of business for us. The ultimate success of such new business cannot be assured.

WE MAY BE UNABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY IDENTIFY AND ACQUIRE A SUITABLE MERGER PARTNER OR ACQUISITION CANDIDATE

We are pursuing a strategy of identifying suitable merger partners and acquisition candidates that will serve as a platform company. Although we are not targeting specific business industries for potential acquisitions, we plan to seek businesses with operations and free cash flow, experienced management teams, and operations in markets offering significant growth opportunities. In identifying, evaluating and selecting a target business for a potential acquisition, we expect to encounter intense competition from other entities having a business objective similar to ours including other blank check companies, private equity groups, venture capital funds, leveraged buyout funds, and operating businesses seeking strategic acquisitions. Many of these entities are well-established and have extensive experience identifying and effecting business combinations directly or through affiliates. Moreover, many of these competitors possess greater financial, technical, human and other resources than us which will give them a competitive advantage in pursuing the acquisition of certain target businesses. We may not be able to successfully identify such a business, obtain financing for such acquisition, or successfully operate any business that we identify. We have been working without success since April 2004 to identify a suitable merger partner and consummate an acquisition.

Even if we identify an appropriate acquisition opportunity, we may be unable to negotiate favorable terms for that acquisition. We may be unable to select, manage or absorb or integrate any future acquisitions successfully. Any acquisition, even if effectively integrated, may not benefit our stockholders. Any acquisitions that we attempt or complete may involve a number of unique risks including: (i) executing successful due diligence; (ii) our exposure to unforeseen liabilities of acquired companies; and (iii) our ability to integrate and absorb the acquired company successfully. We may be unable to address these problems successfully. Our failure to consummate a business combination with a profitable business entity could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock and our business, financial condition and results of operations.

WE WILL INCUR SIGNIFICANT COSTS IN CONNECTION WITH OUR EVALUATION OF SUITABLE MERGER PARTNERS AND ACQUISITION CANDIDATES

As part of our plan to acquire or invest in strategically positioned companies, our management is seeking, analyzing and evaluating potential acquisition and merger candidates. We have incurred and will continue to incur significant costs, such as due diligence and legal and other professional fees and expenses, as part of these efforts. Notwithstanding these efforts and expenditures, we cannot give any assurance that we will identify an appropriate acquisition opportunity in the near term, or at all.

SINCE WE HAVE NOT YET SELECTED A PARTICULAR INDUSTRY OR TARGET BUSINESS TO ACQUIRE, YOU WILL BE UNABLE TO CURRENTLY ASCERTAIN THE MERITS OR RISKS OF THE INDUSTRY OR BUSINESS IN WHICH WE MAY ULTIMATELY OPERATE

Because we may consummate a merger or acquisition with a company in any industry and are not limited to any particular type of business there is no current basis for you to evaluate the possible merits or risks of the particular industry in which we may ultimately operate or the target business which we may ultimately acquire. If we complete a merger or acquisition with an entity in an industry characterized by a high level of risk, we may be affected by the currently unascertainable risks of that industry. Although our management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular industry or target business, we cannot assure you that we will properly ascertain or assess all of the significant risk factors. Even if we properly assess those risks, some of them may be outside of our control or ability to affect. We also cannot assure you that an investment in our securities will not ultimately prove to be less favorable to our stockholders than a direct investment, if an opportunity were available, in a target business.

THE REPORTING REQUIREMENTS UNDER RULES ADOPTED BY THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION RELATING TO SHELL COMPANIES MAY DELAY OR PREVENT US FROM MAKING CERTAIN ACQUISITIONS

The reporting requirements under federal securities law may delay or prevent us from making certain acquisitions.

Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, require companies subject thereto to provide certain information about significant acquisitions, including certified financial statements for the company acquired, covering one, two, or three years, depending on the relative size of the acquisition. The time and additional costs that may be incurred by some target entities to prepare such statements may significantly delay or essentially preclude consummation of an otherwise desirable acquisition by us. Acquisition prospects that do not have or are unable to obtain the required audited statements may not be appropriate for acquisition so long as the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act are applicable.

In addition to the audited financial statements, in the filing of the Form 8-K that we file to report an event that causes us to cease being a shell company, we will be required to include that information that is normally reported by a company in a Form 10 or Form 10-K. The extensive registration-level information includes a detailed description of a company’s business and properties, management, executive compensation, related party transactions, legal proceedings and historical market price information, as well as audited historical financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis of results of operations. The revised Form 8-K rules also require a shell company to file pro forma financial statements giving effect to the acquisition not later than four business days after completion of the acquisition, instead of 75 days as required by non-shell companies. The time and additional costs that may be incurred by some target entities to prepare and disclose such information may significantly delay or essentially preclude consummation of an otherwise desirable acquisition by us. The time and additional costs that may be incurred by some acquisition prospects to prepare such detailed disclosures and obtain audited financial statements may significantly delay or essentially preclude consummation of an otherwise desirable acquisition by us, or deter potential targets from negotiating with us.

OUR ABILITY TO BE SUCCESSFUL AFTER AN ACQUISITION MAY BE DEPENDENT UPON THE CONTINUED EFFORTS OF OUR MANAGEMENT TEAM AND KEY PERSONNEL WHO MAY JOIN US FOLLOWING SUCH ACQUISITION

The role of our management team and key personnel from the target business we acquire cannot presently be ascertained. While we intend to closely scrutinize any individuals we engage after a redeployment of our assets, we cannot assure you that our assessment of these individuals will prove to be correct. These individuals may be unfamiliar with the requirements of operating a public company which could cause us to have to expend time and resources helping them become familiar with such requirements. This could be expensive and time-consuming and could lead to various regulatory issues which may adversely affect our operations.

AS A RESULT OF AN ACQUISITION WE MAY BE REQUIRED TO SUBSEQUENTLY TAKE WRITE-DOWNS OR WRITE-OFFS, RESTRUCTURING, AND IMPAIRMENT OR OTHER CHARGES THAT COULD HAVE A SIGNIFICANT NEGATIVE EFFECT ON OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION, RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND OUR STOCK PRICE, WHICH COULD CAUSE YOU TO LOSE SOME OR ALL OF YOUR INVESTMENT

We must conduct a due diligence investigation of the target businesses we intend to acquire. Intensive due diligence is time consuming and expensive due to the operations, accounting, finance and legal professionals who must be involved in the due diligence process. Even if we conduct extensive due diligence on a target business with which we combine, we cannot assure you that this diligence will reveal all material issues that may affect a particular target business, or that factors outside the control of the target business and outside of our control will not later arise. If our diligence fails to identify issues specific to a target business, industry or the environment in which the target business operates, we may be forced to later write-down or write-off assets, restructure our operations, or incur impairment or other charges that could result in our reporting losses. Even though these charges may be non-cash items and not have an immediate impact on our liquidity, the fact that we report charges of this nature could contribute to negative market perceptions about us or our common stock. In addition, charges of this nature may cause us to violate net worth or other covenants to which we may be subject as a result of assuming pre-existing debt held by a target business or by virtue of our obtaining post-combination debt financing.

WE MAY BE UNABLE TO REALIZE THE BENEFITS OF OUR NET OPERATING LOSS (“NOL”) CARRYFORWARDS

NOLs may be carried forward to offset federal and state taxable income in future years and eliminate income taxes otherwise payable on such taxable income, subject to certain adjustments. Based on current federal corporate income tax rates, our NOL carryforwards could provide a benefit to us, if fully utilized, of significant future tax savings. However, our ability to use these tax benefits in future years will depend upon the amount of our otherwise taxable income. If we do not have sufficient taxable income in

6

future years to use the tax benefits before they expire, we will lose the benefit of these NOL carryforwards permanently. Consequently, our ability to use the tax benefits associated with our substantial NOL will depend significantly on our success in identifying suitable merger partners and/or acquisition candidates, and once identified, successfully consummate a merger with and/or acquisition of these candidates.

Additionally, if we underwent an ownership change, the NOL carryforward limitations would impose an annual limit on the amount of the taxable income that may be offset by our NOL generated prior to the ownership change. If an ownership change were to occur, we may be unable to use a significant portion of our NOL to offset taxable income. In general, an ownership change occurs when, as of any testing date, the aggregate of the increase in percentage points of the total amount of a corporation’s stock owned by “5-percent stockholders” within the meaning of the NOL carryforward limitations whose percentage ownership of the stock has increased as of such date over the lowest percentage of the stock owned by each such “5-percent stockholder” at any time during the three-year period preceding such date is more than 50 percentage points. In general, persons who own 5% or more of a corporation’s stock are “5-percent stockholders,” and all other persons who own less than 5% of a corporation’s stock are treated together as a public group.

The amount of NOL carryforwards that we have claimed has not been audited or otherwise validated by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”). The IRS could challenge our calculation of the amount of our NOL or our determinations as to when a prior change in ownership occurred and other provisions of the Internal Revenue Code may limit our ability to carry forward our NOL to offset taxable income in future years. If the IRS was successful with respect to any such challenge, the potential tax benefit of the NOL carryforwards to us could be substantially reduced.

IF WE EFFECT AN ACQUISITION OR MERGER WITH A COMPANY LOCATED OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES, WE WOULD BE SUBJECT TO A VARIETY OF ADDITIONAL RISKS THAT MAY NEGATIVELY IMPACT OUR OPERATIONS

We may effect an acquisition or merger with a company located outside of the United States. If we did, we would be subject to any special considerations or risks associated with companies operating in the target business’ home jurisdiction, including any of the following:

● rules and regulations or currency conversion or corporate withholding taxes on individuals;

● tariffs and trade barriers;

● regulations related to customs and import/export matters;

● longer payment cycles;

● tax issues, such as tax law changes and variations in tax laws as compared to the United States;

● currency fluctuations and exchange controls;

● challenges in collecting accounts receivable;

● cultural and language differences;

● employment regulations;

● crime, strikes, riots, civil disturbances, terrorist attacks and wars; and

● deterioration of political relations with the United States.

We cannot assure you that we would be able to adequately address these additional risks. If we were unable to do so, our operations might suffer.

7

IF WE EFFECT AN ACQUISITION OR MERGER WITH A COMPANY LOCATED OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES, THE LAWS APPLICABLE TO SUCH COMPANY WILL LIKELY GOVERN ALL OF OUR MATERIAL AGREEMENTS AND WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ENFORCE OUR LEGAL RIGHTS

If we effect an acquisition or merger with a company located outside of the United States, the laws of the country in which such company operates will govern almost all of the material agreements relating to its operations. We cannot assure you that the target business will be able to enforce any of its material agreements or that remedies will be available in this new jurisdiction. The system of laws and the enforcement of existing laws in such jurisdiction may not be as certain in implementation and interpretation as in the United States. The inability to enforce or obtain a remedy under any of our future agreements could result in a significant loss of business, business opportunities or capital. Additionally, if we acquire a company located outside of the United States, it is likely that substantially all of our assets would be located outside of the United States and some of our officers and directors might reside outside of the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for investors in the United States to enforce their legal rights, to effect service of process upon our directors or officers or to enforce judgments of United States courts predicated upon civil liabilities and criminal penalties of our directors and officers under Federal securities laws.

COMPLIANCE WITH THE SARBANES-OXLEY ACT OF 2002 WILL REQUIRE SUBSTANTIAL FINANCIAL AND MANAGEMENT RESOURCES AND MAY INCREASE THE TIME AND COSTS OF COMPLETING AN ACQUISITION

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that we evaluate and report on our system of internal controls and requires that we have such system of internal controls audited. If we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, we could be subject to regulatory scrutiny, civil or criminal penalties and/or stockholder litigation. Any inability to provide reliable financial reports could harm our business. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act also requires that our independent registered public accounting firm report on management’s evaluation of our system of internal controls. An acquisition target may not be in compliance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act regarding adequacy of their internal controls once the public float of our common stock reaches $75 million. The development of the internal controls of any such entity to achieve compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may increase the time and costs necessary to complete any such acquisition. Furthermore, any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in the implementation of adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. Inferior internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our stock.

AN ACQUISITION COULD CREATE A SITUATION WHERE WE WOULD BE REQUIRED TO REGISTER UNDER THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940 AND THUS BE REQUIRED TO INCUR SUBSTANTIAL ADDITIONAL COSTS AND EXPENSES

Although we will be subject to regulation under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, management believes the Company will not be subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, insofar as we will not be engaged in the business of investing or trading in securities. In the event we engage in a business combination that results in us holding passive investment interests in a number of entities, we could be subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940. In such event, we would be required to register as an investment company and could be expected to incur significant registration and compliance costs. We have obtained no formal determination from the Securities and Exchange Commission as to the status of our Company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and, consequently, any violation of such Act would subject us to material adverse consequences.

A MERGER OR ACQUISITION WOULD MOST LIKELY BE EXCLUSIVE, RESULTING IN A LACK OF DIVERSIFICATION

Management anticipates that it may be able to participate in only one potential business venture because a business partner might require exclusivity. This lack of diversification should be considered a substantial risk to our shareholders because it will not permit us to offset potential losses from one venture against gains from another.

8

THE EFFECTS OF COVID-19 MAY AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO AFFECT AN ACQUISITION

The effects of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) may adversely affect our ability to identify acquisition targets and if identified, to evaluate, negotiate, and close on any acquisition. The worldwide COVID 19 pandemic has negatively affected the global economy, and it is likely to continue to do so. Since the beginning of January 2020, the outbreak has caused significant volatility and disruption in the financial markets both globally and in the United States. If COVID-19, or another highly infectious or contagious disease, continues to spread or the response to contain it is unsuccessful, we could experience material adverse effects on our business. The extent of such effects will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the geographic spread of the virus, the overall severity of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, the measures that have be taken, or future measures, by various governmental authorities in response to the outbreak (such as quarantines, shelter-in-place orders and travel restrictions) and the possible further impacts on the global economy.

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic depends on factors beyond our knowledge or control, including the duration and severity of the outbreak, whether there are additional significant increases in the number of cases in future periods, and actions taken to contain its spread and mitigate the public health effects.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK

OUR COMMON STOCK IS QUOTED ONLY ON THE OTC BULLETIN BOARD AND THERE MAY NOT BE A SUSTAINED TRADING MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK

Our shares are listed on the OTC Bulletin Board (the “OTCBB”) under the symbol SDON.

The OTCBB is a market maker or dealer-driven system offering quotation and trading reporting capabilities - a regulated quotation service - that displays real-time quotes, last-sale prices, and volume information in OTC equity securities. The OTCBB securities are not listed and traded on the floor of an organized national or regional stock exchange. Instead, OTCBB securities transactions are conducted through a telephone and computer network connecting market makers or dealers in stocks.

Given the nature of the OTCBB, stockholders may find it difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the price of, our common stock, the liquidity of our stock may be reduced, making it difficult for a stockholder to buy or sell our stock at competitive market prices or at all. Accordingly, you should be able to bear the financial risk of losing your entire investment.

OUR COMMON STOCK MAY BE SUBJECT TO SIGNIFICANT RESTRICTION ON RESALE DUE TO FEDERAL PENNY STOCK RESTRICTIONS

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted rules that regulate broker or dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the Nasdaq system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange system). The penny stock rules require a broker or dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker or dealer also must provide the customer with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker or dealer, and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The penny stock rules also require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from such rules, the broker or dealer must make a special written determination that a penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction.

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in any secondary market for our stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules, and accordingly, shareholders of our common stock may find it difficult to sell their securities, if at all.

WE ARE VULNERABLE TO VOLATILE MARKET CONDITIONS

The market prices of our common stock have been highly volatile. The market has from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. Please see the table contained in Item 5 of this Report which sets forth the range of high and low closing prices of our common stock for the calendar quarters indicated.

9

WE DO NOT EXPECT TO PAY DIVIDENDS ON OUR COMMON STOCK IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE

Although our stockholders may receive dividends if, as and when declared by our Board of Directors, we do not intend to pay dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Therefore, you should not purchase our common stock if you need immediate or future income by way of dividends from your investment.

OUR AMENDED AND RESTATED ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION AUTHORIZE THE ISSUANCE OF SHARES OF PREFERRED STOCK

Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation provides that our Board of Directors will be authorized to issue from time to time, without further stockholder approval, up to 30,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix or alter the designations, preferences, rights and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions of the shares of each series, including the dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, including sinking fund provisions, redemption price or prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any series or designations of any series. Such shares of preferred stock could have preferences over our common stock with respect to dividends and liquidation rights. We may issue additional preferred stock in ways which may delay, defer or prevent a change in control of the Company without further action by our stockholders. Such shares of preferred stock may be issued with voting rights that may adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our common stock by increasing the number of outstanding shares having voting rights, and by the creation of class or series voting rights.

WE MAY ISSUE A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF OUR COMMON STOCK IN THE FUTURE, WHICH COULD CAUSE DILUTION TO CURRENT INVESTORS AND OTHERWISE ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR STOCK PRICE

A key element of our growth strategy is to make acquisitions. As part of our acquisition strategy, we may issue additional shares of common stock as consideration for such acquisitions. These issuances could be significant. To the extent that we make acquisitions and issue our shares of common stock as consideration, your equity interest in us will be diluted. Any such issuance will also increase the number of outstanding shares of common stock that will be eligible for sale in the future. Persons receiving shares of our common stock in connection with these acquisitions may be more likely to sell off their common stock, which may influence the price of our common stock. In addition, the potential issuance of additional shares in connection with anticipated acquisitions could lessen demand for our common stock and result in a lower price than might otherwise be obtained. We may issue common stock in the future for other purposes as well, including in connection with financings, for compensation purposes, in connection with strategic transactions or for other purposes.

ACCOUNTING IN THE EVENT OF A BUSINESS COMBINATION

The Financial Accounting Standards Board’s ASC 805, “Business Combinations,” (“ASC 805”), requires business combinations to be accounted for under the purchase method. ASC 805 establishes principles for how an acquirer recognizes and measures identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, any noncontrolling interest in the acquirer and the goodwill acquired. ASC 350, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“ASC 350”), requires the use of a non-amortization approach to account for purchased goodwill and certain intangibles. Goodwill is the excess of the acquisition costs of the acquired entity over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. The Company is required to test goodwill and intangible assets that are determined to have an indefinite life for impairments at least annually. The provisions of ASC 350 require the completion of an annual impairment test with any impairment recognized in current earnings. The provisions of ASC 805 and ASC 350 will be applicable to any business combination that we may enter into in the future.

We have also been informed that most business combinations will be accounted for as a reverse acquisition with us being the surviving registrant. As a result of any business combination, if the acquired entity’s shareholders will exercise control over us, the transaction will be deemed to be a capital transaction where we are treated as a non-business entity. Therefore, the accounting for the business combination is identical to that resulting from a reverse merger, except no goodwill or other intangible assets will be recorded. For accounting purposes, the acquired entity will be treated as the accounting acquirer and, accordingly, will be presented as the continuing entity.

10

IF WE DO ANY BUSINESS COMBINATION, EACH SHAREHOLDER WILL MOST LIKELY HOLD A SUBSTANTIALLY LESSER PERCENTAGE OWNERSHIP IN THE COMPANY

If we enter a business combination with a private concern, that, in all likelihood, would result in the Company issuing securities to shareholders of any such private company. The issuance of our previously authorized and unissued Common Stock would result in reduction in percentage of shares owned by our present and prospective shareholders and may result in a change in our control or in our management.

OUR CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER IS OUR PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDER AND WILL BE ABLE TO APPROVE ALL CORPORATE ACTIONS WITHOUT SHAREHOLDER CONSENT AND WILL CONTROL OUR COMPANY

Our principal shareholder, Daniel J. Dorman, owns or controls 69.28% of our common stock. His wife owns 3.32% of our common stock. Consequently, they will have significant influence over all matters requiring approval by our shareholders, but not requiring the approval of the minority shareholders. In addition, he is now an officer and director. Because Mr. Dorman and his wife own or control a majority of our common stock, they will be able to elect all of the members of our board of directors, allowing them to exercise significant control of our affairs and management. In addition, they may transact most corporate matters requiring shareholder approval by written consent, without a duly-noticed and duly-held meeting of shareholders.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities; Uses of Proceeds from Registered Securities

Subsequent to April 1, 2004, the Company has sold shares of its Common Stock to certain accredited investors in private placement agreements with no underwriting discounts or commissions payable. All of the shares sold since April 1, 2004 were sold in reliance on exemptions from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder, based on the following: there was no general solicitation; all investors are “accredited investors” (within the meaning of Regulation D) who are sophisticated about business and financial matters; and all the New Shares issued are subject to restriction on transfer. A summary of the shares sold, including those sold in 2021 and 2020, is as follows:

The Company used the proceeds from the sale of the unregistered securities for general corporate purposes and to sustain its current level of operations until such time as it identifies target companies or business operations, as described in Item 1 of this Form 10-K. At such time, and if a target company or business operations are identified, the Company will use all or a portion of the remaining proceeds for costs and expenses to be incurred in the due diligence process and for other acquisition activities relating to the target company or business operations.

Item 7.          Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

Following the Net Asset Sale on March 31, 2004, the Company became a public shell with no revenue generating activities. The Company intends to build long-term shareholder value by acquiring and/or investing in and operating strategically positioned entities and business operations. The Company expects to target entities and business operations in multiple industry groups. The Company has yet to acquire, or enter into an agreement to acquire, any entity or business operations.

13

We have historically relied on Dorman Industries, LLC to fund our ongoing administrative expenses. Dorman Industries, LLC has recently advised us that it will not fund our ongoing expenses after this Annual Report on Form 10-K is filed. Therefore, unless we find an alternative source of funding or acquire an operating business, we will be unable to continue our ongoing reporting obligations and this may be the last filing we make with the SEC. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in our efforts to locate financing or acquire an operating business or that any such acquisition will result in our future profitability. Our failure to successfully find alternative financing sources will result in our no longer being able to make public filings and could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock and our ability to acquire a target business. Our failure to successfully acquire an operating business could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock and our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Results of Operations

Year Ended December 31, 2022 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2021

The business of the Company in 2022 includes only its consideration of various investment opportunities and incurring administrative expenses related to legal, accounting and administrative activities. The Company had no revenue generating activities in 2022. The Company has had no employees since April 1, 2004. The administrative activities of the Company since April 1, 2004 have been performed by the Chairman, who also serves as the CEO, President and Principal Financial Officer. Direct administrative expenses of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2022 totaled $33,145 an increase of $5,777, or 21.1%, compared to $27,368 incurred for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase in expenses relates primarily to increases in printing and SEC filing services and in audit fees.

Year Ended December 31, 2021 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2020

The business of the Company in 2020 includes only its consideration of various investment opportunities and incurring administrative expenses related to legal, accounting and administrative activities. The Company had no revenue generating activities in 2020. The Company has had no employees since April 1, 2004. The administrative activities of the Company since April 1, 2004 have been performed by the Chairman, who also serves as the CEO, President and Principal Financial Officer. Direct administrative expenses of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2021 totaled $27,368 an increase of $2,638, or 10.7%, compared to $24,730 incurred for the year ended December 31, 2020. The increase in expenses relates primarily to increases in printing and SEC filing services and in audit fees.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Primary sources of liquidity since the Company became a “public shell” following the March 31, 2004 Net Asset Sale have been cash balances that have been used to pay administrative expenses. Operating expenses of the Company have been funded with $30,000 of available cash retained from the Net Asset Sale and from $50,000 of cash generated by the sale of additional shares of common stock to Dorman Industries on April 1, 2004. Subsequent thereto, the Company sold shares of unregistered securities through private placement in the following amounts:

14

Year	Shares	Proceeds
2006	2,400,000	$	120,000
2010	500,000		15,000
2011	375,000		15,000
2012	1,500,000		15,000
2013	361,767		10,853
2014	733,300		21,803
2015	394,506		15,780
2016	523,867		18,635
2017	955,883		21,262
2018	524,358		17,710
2019	530,022		19,989
2020	511,789		34,980
2021	279,559		27,757
2022	74,339		13,060
Total	9,664,390	$	366,829

As reflected in the accompanying balance sheet at December 31, 2022, cash totals $22. Based on such balance and management’s forecast of activity levels during the period that it may remain a “public shell” corporation, management will have to again sell through private placement a number of additional shares of common stock to generate sufficient cash to pay its current liabilities and its administrative expenses as such expenses become due in 2023. The Company has not identified as yet potential acquisition candidates, the acquisition of which would mean that the Company would cease being a “public shell” and begin operating activities.

While it is the Company’s objective to ultimately be able to use the securities of the Company as a currency in the acquisition of portfolio businesses, the initial acquisitions of portfolio businesses may require the Company to be infused with additional capital thereby diluting the Company’s shareholders, including Dorman Industries to the extent that it does not participate in the capital infusion.

Item 9A(T).Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company performed an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of management, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the design and effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in the timely and accurate recording, processing, summarizing and reporting of material financial and non-financial information within the time periods specified within the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer also concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely discussions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). Our internal control over financial reporting was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, has inherent limitations and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even effective internal control over financial reporting can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to the financial statement preparation and presentation.

Our President and sole executive officer has conducted an assessment, including testing of the effectiveness, of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022. Management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting was conducted using the criteria in Internal Control over Financial Reporting - Guidance for Smaller Public Companies issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on such assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, management concluded that our controls were effective as of December 31, 2022.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Controls

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that occurred during the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

Section 16(a) of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended, requires all Company executive officers and directors and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities to file reports of their ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Executive officers, directors and greater than ten percent shareholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. Specific due dates for these reports have been established and the Company is required to report any delinquent filings and failures to file such reports.

Based solely on its review of the copies of such reports received by it and written representations of its executive officers and incumbent directors, the Company believes that during the year ended December 31, 2022, all filing requirements under Section 16(a) applicable to its executive officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial owners were complied with.

Audit Committee

Because the Company does not currently have any material business operations, the Company does not have a separate audit committee, and it does not have an audit committee financial expert. Instead, the entire Board of Directors functions as the audit committee, and it engaged the independent auditors. At such time as when the Company acquires a business or develops material business operations, it will form an audit committee and appoint an independent audit committee financial expert.

Code of Ethics

The Company has adopted a code of ethics that applies to its principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. A copy of such code of ethics has been filed with the SEC as Exhibit 14.01 to this annual report on Form 10-K.

Procedures for Shareholder Nominations and Proposals

A shareholder may nominate persons for election to our board of directors or make a proposal of business to be considered by our shareholders at our annual meeting of shareholders provided the shareholder gives timely notice of such nomination or proposal to the Secretary of the Corporation in accordance with our bylaws.

To be timely, a shareholder’s notice shall be delivered to our Secretary at our principal executive offices not less than 60 days nor more than 90 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event the date of the annual meeting is advanced by more than 30 days or delayed by more than 60 days from such anniversary date, notice by the shareholder to be timely must be so delivered not earlier than the 90^th day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 60^th day prior to such annual meeting or the 10^th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made. Such shareholder’s notice must set forth (i) as to each person whom the shareholder proposes to nominate for election or reelection as a director, all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (including such person’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected); (ii) as to any other business that the shareholder proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting, the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting and any material interest in such business of such shareholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made; (iii) as to the shareholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made (A) the name and address of such shareholder, as they appear on our books, and of such beneficial owner and (B) the class and number of shares of the corporation which are owned beneficially and of record by such shareholder and such beneficial owner.

In the event that the number of directors to be elected to our Board of Directors is increased and there is no public announcement naming all of the nominees for director or specifying the size of the increased Board of Directors made by us at least 70 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, a shareholder’s notice will be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for any new positions created by such increase, if it is delivered to our Secretary at our principal executive offices not later than the close of business on the 10^th day following the day on which such public announcement is first made by us.

18

At any special meeting of shareholders, only such business shall be conducted as shall have been brought before the meeting pursuant to our notice of meeting. Nominations of persons for election to our Board of Directors may be made at a special meeting of shareholders at which directors are to be elected pursuant to our notice of meeting (i) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or (ii) by any shareholder of the Company who is a shareholder of record at the time of giving of notice provided hereunder, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in our bylaws. Nominations by shareholders of persons for election to our Board of Directors may be made at such a special meeting of shareholders if the shareholder’s notice required by our bylaws is delivered to our Secretary at our principal executive offices not earlier than the 90^th day prior to such special meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 60^th day prior to such special meeting or the 10^th day following the day on which public announcement is first made of the date of the special meeting and of the nominees proposed by the Board of Directors to be elected at such meeting.

Only such persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in our bylaws are eligible to serve as directors and only such business shall be conducted at a meeting of shareholders as shall have been brought before the meeting in accordance with the procedures set forth in our bylaws. The Chairman of the meeting shall have the power and duty to determine whether a nomination or any business proposed to be brought before the meeting was made in accordance with the procedures set forth in our bylaws and, if any proposed nomination or business is not in compliance with our bylaws, to declare that such defective proposal shall be disregarded.

Employment Agreements

The Named Executive Officer does not have an employment agreement with the Company.

Compensation of Directors

Each director who is not an officer or employee of the Company is eligible to receive for his services a fee of $1,000 per meeting attended and $500 for each committee meeting attended. Committee chairs receive an additional $250 for each committee meeting. The directors waived the director fees for meetings held during quarterly periods during which the Company reported a loss from operations, which were all quarters of the last two years. Directors who are officers or employees of the Company receive no additional compensation for their service as a director, although they are eligible to be reimbursed for their reasonable travel expenses when meetings are held in a location other than the metropolitan area in which they reside.

Long-Term Incentive Plan

The Company’s Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”), adopted in April 1999, provides for the granting of awards to purchase a total of 250,000 shares of common stock to key employees and others. Awards may be made by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors in the form of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock or performance shares, provided that the Committee may not grant options to any salaried employee during any three-year period to purchase more than 100,000 shares.

The exercise price for each option granted under the Incentive Plan cannot be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of the grant. The Incentive Plan’s Committee has latitude in setting the vesting and exercise periods, but generally the options vest over a three-year period and had a ten-year term.

20

The Incentive Plan authorizes the Committee to grant restricted stock awards pursuant to which shares of Common Stock will be awarded, subject to restrictions on transfer that lapse over a period of time or upon achievement of performance goals, as determined by the Committee. Participants who receive restricted stock grants are entitled to dividend and voting rights on the awarded shares prior to the lapse of restrictions on such awards.

The Committee is also authorized to grant performance share awards under the Incentive Plan that are payable at the discretion of the Committee in cash, shares of Common Stock, or a combination of each, upon achievement of performance goals established by the Committee. The Committee will determine the terms and conditions of restricted stock and performance share awards, including the acceleration or lapse of any restrictions or conditions of such awards. Outstanding options under the Incentive Plan were cancelled as of March 31, 2004, and there are no outstanding options as of December 31, 2022 or 2021.

Item 14.Principal Accountant Fees and Services.

The Company’s independent accountants, Plante & Moran PLLC, have been engaged since July 2004. Fees paid to the Plante & Moran PLLC during 2022 and 2021 are as follows:

	2022		2021
Audit Fees	$	17,600	$	13,900
Audit Related Fees		-0-		-0-
Tax Fees		-0-		-0-
All Other Fees		-0-		-0-

Audit Fees. This category includes the fees for the audit of our financial statements and the quarterly reviews of interim financial statements (the “reviews”). This category also includes advice on audit and accounting matters that arose during or as a result of the audit or the reviews and for services in connection with Securities and Exchange Commission filings.

Audit Related Fees. There were no audit related fees paid.

Tax Fees. There were no tax fees paid.

All Other Fees. There were no other fees paid.

Effective May 6, 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules that require that before independent auditors are engaged by the Company or its subsidiaries to render any auditing or permitted non-audit related service, the engagement be approved by the Company’s audit committee, or the Company’s Board of Directors or entered into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures established by the audit committee or the board of directors, provided the policies and procedures are detailed as to the particular service, the audit committee is informed of each service, and such policies and procedures do not include delegation of the audit committee’s responsibilities to management.

The Board of Directors requires advance approval of all audit, audit-related, tax, and other services performed by the independent auditor. Unless the specific service has been previously pre-approved with respect to that year, the audit committee must approve the permitted service before the independent auditor is engaged to perform it. The Board of Directors has delegated to the chairman authority to approve permitted services provided that the chairman reports any decisions to the Board of Directors at its next scheduled meeting.

Following the Net Asset Sale on March 31, 2004, the Board of Directors of the Company has fulfilled the functions of the audit committee. The Board of Directors engaged the firm of Plante & Moran PLLC to perform quarterly reviews beginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2004 and the annual audits beginning with the year ended December 31, 2004.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of Sandston Corporation

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Sandston Corporation (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). 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, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2022 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has sustained recurring losses from operations, negative working capital, and insufficient liquidity, which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current audit period of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2004.

Notes to Statements of Cash Flows

For the Years Ended December 31, 2022 and 2021

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Business

Pursuant to a recommendation of the Company’s Board of Directors and approval by its shareholders on January 13, 2004, the Company sold to NC Acquisition Corporation (the “Purchaser”) on March 31, 2004 all of its tangible and intangible assets, including its real estate, accounts, equipment, intellectual property, inventory, subsidiaries, goodwill, and other intangibles, except for $30,000 in cash, (the “Net Asset Sale”). The Purchaser also assumed all of the Company’s liabilities pursuant to the Net Asset Sale. Following the Net Asset Sale, the Company’s only remaining assets were $30,000 in cash and it had no liabilities. It also retained no subsidiaries. On April 1, 2004 the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name from Nematron Corporation to Sandston Corporation (the “Company”) and to implement a shareholder approved one-for-five reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock, whereby every five issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock became one share. On April 1, 2004, the Company also sold a total of 5,248,257 post-split shares to Dorman Industries, LLC (“Dorman Industries”) for $50,000. On December 21, 2006, the Company sold 2,400,000 post-split shares to certain accredited investors for $120,000.

Dorman Industries is a Michigan Limited Liability Company wholly owned by Mr. Daniel J. Dorman, the Company’s Chairman of the Board, President and Principal Accounting Officer. Pursuant to its purchase of these shares, Dorman Industries became the owner of 62.50% of the then outstanding common stock of the Company. The Company has made several subsequent sales of common stock to Dorman Industries in order to raise cash to pay operating expenses. Between December 30, 2010 and December 31, 2022, the Company sold to Dorman Industries a total of 7,264,389 shares at per share prices equal to the closing price the day prior to each sale, and realized proceeds of $246,829. Dorman Industries currently is the beneficial owner of 69.28% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

Effective April 1, 2004, the Company became a “public shell” corporation.

The Company intends to build long-term shareholder value by acquiring and/or investing in and operating strategically positioned companies. The Company expects to target companies in multiple industry groups. The Company has yet to acquire, or enter into an agreement to acquire, any company or entity.

During the period prior to the Net Asset Sale, the Company’s businesses included 1) the design, manufacture, and marketing of environmentally ruggedized computers and computer displays known as industrial workstations; 2) the design, development and marketing of software for worldwide use in factory automation and control and in test and measurement environments; and 3) providing application engineering support to customers of its own and third parties’ products. These businesses were sold on March 31, 2004 to the Purchaser.

Liquidity and Management Plans

The Company became a “public shell” corporation on April 1, 2004 following the Net Asset Sale and since that date its operational activities have been limited to considering sundry and various acquisition opportunities, and its financial activities have been limited to administrative activities and incurring expenditures for accounting, legal, filing, printing, office and auditing services. These expenditures have been paid with the $30,000 cash retained from the businesses that were sold, from $50,000 of proceeds from the sale of common stock on April 1, 2004 to Dorman Industries, from $120,000 of proceeds from the sale, through a private placement, to certain accredited investors of common stock in December 2006, and from $246,829 of proceeds from the sales, through private placements, of unregistered common stock to Dorman Industries in the years 2010 through 2022.

F-7

As reflected in the accompanying balance sheet at December 31, 2022, cash totals $22. Based on such balance and management’s forecast of activity levels during the period that it may remain a “public shell” corporation, management will have to again sell through private placement a number of additional shares of common stock to generate sufficient cash to pay its current liabilities and its administrative expenses as such expenses become due in 2023. If the Company has not identified and consummated an acquisition by that date, the Company will need to obtain additional funds to maintain its administrative activities as a public shell company. We have historically relied on Dorman Industries, LLC to fund our ongoing administrative expenses. Dorman Industries, LLC has recently advised us that it will not fund our ongoing expenses after March 30, 2023.  Therefore, unless we find an alternative source of funding or acquire an operating business, we will be unable to continue our ongoing operations or reporting obligations with the SEC.  We cannot assure you that we will be successful in our efforts to locate financing or acquire an operating business or that any such acquisition will result in our future profitability. Our failure to successfully find alternative financing sources will result in our no longer being able to make public filings and could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock and our ability to acquire a target business.  Our failure to successfully acquire an operating business could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock and our business, financial condition and results of operations.

There can be no assurance that any entity will advance needed funds on any terms. The Company has not identified as yet potential acquisition candidates, the acquisition of which would mean that the Company would cease being a “public shell” and begin operating activities.

Note 2 - Summary of Accounting Principles

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset-and-liability method. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future. Such deferred income tax asset and liability computations are based on enacted tax laws and rates. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Stock Option Plans

The Company’s Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”), adopted in April 1999, provides for the granting of awards to purchase a total of 250,000 shares of common stock to key employees and others. No options were granted in 2021 or 2020.

Loss Per Share

Loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the years presented. The weighted average shares outstanding used in computing loss per share was 18,027,575 and 17,814,361 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. There are no outstanding dilutive stock options and warrants. All outstanding stock options and warrants were cancelled effective with the Net Asset Sale.

Note 3 - Taxes on Income

Income tax expense is $-0- for both 2022 and 2021, including $-0- in current taxes and $-0- in deferred taxes for both 2022 and 2021.

A reconciliation of income tax expense recognized to income taxes at statutory rates is as follows:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2022		2021
Tax benefit computed at statutory rates (21% in 2022 and 2021)	$	(7,000)	$	(5,700)
Change in valuation allowance		(7,000)		(5,700)
Income tax expense	$	-0-	$	-0-

F-8

At December 31, 2022, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) of approximately $510,000 that can be used to offset future taxable income, and such NOLs result in a gross deferred tax asset of approximately $106,200 at that date. These NOLs expire in varying amounts through 2037 for losses prior to 2018, and the NOLs generated in 2018 and thereafter have no expiration date. Realization of these NOLs is subject to annual limitations under current IRS regulations pursuant to change in control provisions and is dependent on the existence of future taxable income.

Note 4 – Long-Term Incentive Plan

All option and share amounts reflected in the following disclosures have been adjusted for the one-for-five reverse stock split on April 1, 2004.

The Company’s Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”), adopted in April 1999, provides for the granting of awards to purchase a total of 250,000 shares of common stock to key employees and others. Awards may be made by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors in the form of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock or performance shares, provided that the Committee may not grant options to any salaried employee during any three-year period to purchase more than 100,000 shares.

The exercise price for each option granted under the Incentive Plan cannot be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of the grant. The Incentive Plan’s Committee has latitude in setting the vesting and exercise periods, but generally the options vest over a three-year period and had a ten-year term.

The Incentive Plan authorizes the Committee to grant restricted stock awards pursuant to which shares of Common Stock will be awarded, subject to restrictions on transfer that lapse over a period of time or upon achievement of performance goals, as determined by the Committee. Participants who receive restricted stock grants are entitled to dividend and voting rights on the awarded shares prior to the lapse of restrictions on such awards.

The Committee is also authorized to grant performance share awards under the Incentive Plan that are payable at the discretion of the Committee in cash, shares of Common Stock, or a combination of each, upon achievement of performance goals established by the Committee. The Committee will determine the terms and conditions of restricted stock and performance share awards, including the acceleration or lapse of any restrictions or conditions of such awards. Outstanding options under the Incentive Plan were cancelled as of March 31, 2004. There were no option grants in the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, and there are no outstanding options as of December 31, 2022 or 2021.
