Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements
NOTE 1 NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Black Grotto Acquisition Corporation ("Black Grotto" or "the Company") was
incorporated on January 12, 2015 under the laws of the state of Delaware
to engage in any lawful corporate undertaking, including, but not limited to,
selected mergers and acquisitions. The Company has been in the
developmental stage since inception and its operations to date have been
limited to issuing shares to its original shareholders. The Company will
attempt to locate and negotiate with a business entity for the combination
of that target company with Black Grotto. The combination will normally take
the form of a merger, stock-for-stock exchange or stock-for-assets exchange.
In most instances the target company will wish to structure the business
combination to be within the definition of a tax-free reorganization under
Section 351 or Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended. No assurances can be given that the Company will be successful
in locating or negotiating with any target company. The Company has been
formed to provide a method for a foreign or domestic private company to
become a reporting company with a class of securities registered under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The summary of significant accounting policies presented below is designed
to assist in understanding the Company's unaudited condensed financial
statements. Such unaudited condensed financial statements and accompanying
notes are the representations of the Company's management, who are responsible
for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
("GAAP") in all material respects, and have been consistently applied in
preparing the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with
GAAP 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 condensed financial statements, and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
CASH
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and on deposit at banking
institutions as well as all highly liquid short-term investments with original
maturities of 90 days or less. The Company did not have cash equivalents as
of March 31, 2015.
CONCENTRATION OF RISK
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations
of credit risk consist principally of cash. The Company places its cash with
high quality banking institutions. The Company did not have cash balances
in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit as of March 31,
2015.

INCOME TAXES
Under ASC 740, "Income Taxes," deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary
differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing
assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are established when it is more
likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be
realized. As of March 31, 2015 there were no deferred taxes due to the
uncertainty of the realization of net operating loss or carry forward prior
to expiration.
LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic loss per common share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing
net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the period. Diluted loss per common share reflect the potential
dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common
stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the
issuance of common stock that then shared in the loss of the entity. As of
March 31, 2015, there are no outstanding dilutive securities.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company follows guidance for accounting for fair value measurements
of financial assets and financial liabilities and for fair value measurements
of nonfinancial items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the
unaudited condensed financial statements on a recurring basis. Additionally,
the Company adopted guidance for fair value measurement related to nonfinancial
items that are recognized and disclosed at fair value in the unaudited
condensed financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. The guidance
establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation
techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest
priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets
or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements
involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three
levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the
measurement date.
Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1
that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The carrying amounts of financial assets such as cash approximate their fair
values because of the short maturity of these instruments.
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
The Company has not yet generated any revenue since inception to date and
has sustained operating losses during the period ended March 31, 2015.
The Company had working capital of ($400) and an accumulated deficit of
($712) as of March 31, 2015. The Company's continuation as a going concern
is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations
to meet its obligations and/or obtaining additional financing from its members
or other sources, as may be required.

BLACK GROTTO ACQUISITION CORPORATION
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared
assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern; however, the above
condition raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to do so. The
unaudited condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments to
reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification
of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result
should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
In order to maintain its current level of operations, the Company will require
additional working capital from either cash flow from operations or from the
sale of its equity. However, the Company currently has no commitments
from any third parties for the purchase of its equity. If the Company is unable
to acquire additional working capital, it will be required to significantly
reduce its current level of operations.
NOTE 3 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Adopted
In August, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial
Statements-Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), which now requires management to
evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate,
that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going
concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. If
conditions or events raise substantial doubt about an entity's ability to
continue as a going concern, and substantial doubt is not alleviated after
consideration of management's plans, additional disclosures are required. The
amendments in this update are effective for the annual period ending after
December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter.
Early application is permitted. These requirements were previously included
within auditing standards and federal securities law, but are now included
within U.S. GAAP. We are currently assessing the impact of the adoption of
ASU No. 2014-15 on our financial statements and disclosures.
In June, 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities
(Topic 915) - Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements,
Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810,
Consolidation, which eliminates the concept of a development stage entity
(DSE) in its entirety from current accounting guidance. We have elected
early adoption of this standard, which eliminates the designation of DSEs
and the requirement to disclose results of operations and cash flows since
inception. We do not believe the adoption of ASU No. 2014-10 will have
significant impact on our financial statements and disclosures.
NOTE 4 STOCKHOLDERS' DEFICIT
On January 22, 2015, the Company issued 20,000,000 founders common stock
to two directors and officers. The Company is authorized to issue
100,000,000 shares of common stock and 20,000,000 shares of preferred
stock. As of March 31, 2015, 20,000,000 shares of common stock and no
preferred stock were issued and outstanding.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Black Grotto Acquisition Corporation was incorporated on
January 12, 2015 under the laws of the State of Delaware to engage in
any lawful corporate undertaking, including, but not limited to,
selected mergers and acquisitions. Black Grotto Acquisition Corporation
("Black Grotto" or the "Company") is a blank check company and qualifies
as an "emerging growth company" as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business
Startups Act which became law in April, 2012.
Since inception Black Grotto's operations to date of the period covered
by this report have been limited to issuing shares of common stock to its
original shareholders and filing a registration statement on Form 10 on
March 2, 2015 with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended to register its class of common
stock.
Black Grotto has no operations nor does it currently engage in any
business activities generating revenues. Black Grotto's principal
business objective is to achieve a business combination with a target
company.
A combination will normally take the form of a merger, stock-for-stock
exchange or stock-for-assets exchange. In most instances the target
company will wish to structure the business combination to be within the
definition of a tax-free reorganization under Section 351 or Section 368
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
No assurances can be given that Black Grotto will be successful in
locating or negotiating with any target company.
The most likely target companies are those seeking the perceived
benefits of a reporting corporation. Such perceived benefits may include
facilitating or improving the terms on which additional equity financing
may be sought, providing liquidity for incentive stock options or similar
benefits to key employees, increasing the opportunity to use securities
for acquisitions, providing liquidity for shareholders and other factors.
Business opportunities may be available in many different industries and
at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of
comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities
difficult and complex.
The search for a target company will not be restricted to any specific
kind of business entities, but may acquire a venture which is in its
preliminary or development stage, which is already in operation, or in
essentially any stage of its business life. It is impossible to predict
at this time the status of any business in which the Company may become
engaged, whether such business may need to seek additional capital, may
desire to have its shares publicly traded, or may seek other perceived
advantages which the Company may offer.
In implementing a structure for a particular business acquisition, the
Company may become a party to a merger, consolidation, reorganization,
joint venture, licensing agreement or other arrangement with another
corporation or entity. On the consummation of a transaction, it is likely
that the present management and shareholders of the Company will no longer
be in control of the Company. In addition, it is likely that the officer
and director of the Company will, as part of the terms of the business
combination, resign and be replaced by one or more new officers and
directors.
As of March 31, 2015 Black Grotto had not generated revenues and had
no income or cash flows from operations since inception. At March 31,
2015 Black Grotto had sustained net loss of $712, and had an accumulated
deficit of $712.
The Company's independent auditors have issued a report raising
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
At present, the Company has no operations and the continuation of Black Grotto
as a going concern is dependent upon financial support from its stockholders,
its ability to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations
and/or to successfully locate and negotiate with a business entity for the
combination of that target company with Black Grotto.
Management will pay all expenses incurred by Black Grotto until a
change in control is effected. There is no expectation of repayment
for such expenses.
The president of Black Grotto is the president, director and
shareholder of Tiber Creek Corporation. Tiber Creek Corporation assists
companies in becoming public reporting companies and with introductions
to the financial community.
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosures and Procedures
Pursuant to Rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission,
the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design
and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to
Exchange Act Rules. This evaluation was done as of the end of the
period covered by this report under the supervision and with the
participation of the Company's principal executive officer (who is
also the principal financial officer).
Based upon that evaluation, he believes that the Company's
disclosure controls and procedures are effective in gathering, analyzing
and disclosing information needed to ensure that the information
required to be disclosed by the Company in its periodic reports is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods
specified in the Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and
procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed
to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the
reports that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated and
communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive
and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions,
as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
This Quarterly 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 Quarterly Report.
Changes in Internal Controls
There was no change in the Company's internal control over
financial reporting that was identified in connection with such
evaluation that occurred during the period covered by this report
that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
