Payments made under operating leases net of any incentives received from the lessor are charged to the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the terms of the underlying lease.

 

The Company records lease payments at cost less accumulated rent. The Company entered into a long term agreement with certain unrelated parties to rent land in 2010. The lease payments are recorded as operating lease expenses using the straight line method during the contract period of 20 years beginning at January 1, 2010. The lease payments for the entire contract period of $1,030,000 were prepaid. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded lease expense of $13,963 and $13,980, respectively.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

The Company engages in the business of growing, producing, marketing and selling fresh mushrooms, dried mushrooms, and mushroom seeds through its affiliated VIE, LiaoNing DingXu.

 

Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment from the Company’s facilities to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, ownership has passed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured.

 

The Company’s revenue consists of the invoiced value of goods, net of value-added tax (“VAT”).

 

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

Under FASB ASC 820-10-05, the Financial Accounting Standards Board establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses reported on the balance sheet are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short term nature of the instruments. The Company had no other items that required fair value measurement on a recurring basis.

 

BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS PER SHARE

 

The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an “as if converted” basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the periods presented, there were no outstanding potential common stock equivalents and therefore basic and diluted earnings per share result in the same figure.

 

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

The Company adopted FASB guidance on stock based compensation upon inception on September 9, 2010. Under FASB ASC 718-10-30-2, all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. The Company did not issue any share-based payments for services or compensation to employees, or otherwise for the periods presented.

 

TAXATION

 

Taxation on profits earned in the PRC has been calculated on the estimated assessable profits for the year at the rates of taxation prevailing in the PRC where the Company operates after taking into account the benefits from any special tax credits or “tax holidays” allowed in the county of operations.

 

The Company does not accrue United States income tax since it has no operating income in the United States. The operating subsidiary is organized and located in the PRC and does not conduct any business in the United States.

 

Enterprise income tax

 

In accordance with the relevant tax laws in the PRC, as an agriculture growing enterprise, the operating subsidiary is exempted from enterprise income tax from 2010 to 2016. Accordingly, the Company statutory rate was 0% and 0% for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

 

Value added tax

 

The Provisional Regulations of The PRC concerning Value Added Tax promulgated by the State Council came into effect on January 1, 1994. Under these regulations and the Implementing Rules of the Provisional Regulations of the PRC Concerning Value Added Tax, value added tax is imposed on goods sold in or imported into the PRC and on processing, repair and replacement services provided within the PRC.

 

In accordance with the relevant tax laws in the PRC, as an agriculture growing enterprise, the Company is exempted from VAT from 2010 to 2016.

 

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

 

The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the parent company is the U.S. dollar and the functional currency of the Company’s operating subsidiaries and variable interest entities is the RMB. For the subsidiaries and variable interest entities whose functional currencies are the RMB, results of operations and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the period, assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate at the end of the period, and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive income. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred. All of the Company’s revenue transactions are transacted in the functional currency. The Company does not enter any material transaction in foreign currencies and accordingly, transaction gains or losses have not had, and are not expected to have, a material effect on the results of operations of the Company.

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 230, cash flows from the Company’s operations are calculated based upon the local currencies using the average translation rate. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets.

 

ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

 

Accumulated other comprehensive income represents the change in equity of the Company during the periods presented from foreign currency translation adjustments.

 

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

On August 2014, The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concerns (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. The amendments require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards. Specifically, the amendments (1) provide a definition of the term substantial doubt, (2) require an evaluation every reporting period including interim periods, (3) provide principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans, (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’s plans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). 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. The adoption of ASU 2014-15 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period. The new guidance requires that share-based compensation that require a specific performance target to be achieved in order for employees to become eligible to vest in the awards and that could be achieved after an employee completes the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation costs should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period(s) for which the requisite service has already been rendered. If the performance target becomes probable of being achieved before the end of the requisite service period, the remaining unrecognized compensation cost should be recognized prospectively over the remaining requisite service period. The total amount of compensation cost recognized during and after the requisite service period should reflect the number of awards that are expected to vest and should be adjusted to reflect those awards that ultimately vest. The requisite service period ends when the employee can cease rendering service and still be eligible to vest in the award if the performance target is achieved. This new guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. Entities may apply the amendments in this Update either (a) prospectively to all awards granted or modified after the effective date or (b) retrospectively to all awards with performance targets that are outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and to all new or modified awards thereafter. The adoption of ASU 2014-12 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

Under FASB ASC 820-10-05, the Financial Accounting Standards Board establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses reported on the balance sheet are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short term nature of the instruments. The Company had no other items that required fair value measurement on a recurring basis.

 

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The three levels are as follows:

 

Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 - Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

 

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

 

The following table provides a summary of the fair values of assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2015:

NOTE 13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

The Company has performed an evaluation of subsequent events in accordance with ASC Topic 855 and the Company is not aware of any other subsequent events which would require recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. 

 

OVERVIEW

 

We mainly engage in the business of growing mushrooms and marketing, producing and selling mushrooms and related agricultural products through our affiliated VIE Liaoning Dingxu.

 

We mainly produce and sell three types of products:

 

(1) Fresh mushrooms. We grow fresh mushrooms in our greenhouses and sell them to stores that sell products directly to individual customers. Our fresh mushrooms include oyster mushrooms, king oyster mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, king trumpet mushrooms and button mushrooms.

 

The revenues from the sales of fresh mushrooms constitute approximately 84% and 62% of our total revenues in the fist three months of 2015 and 2014, respectively.

 

(2) Mushroom seeds. We sell mushroom seeds to farmers in the form of stick shaped containers filled with fertilizers on which the mushrooms grow and bottles of mushroom seeds which are also used to grow mushrooms.

 

The revenues from the sales of mushroom seeds was approximately 15% and 10% of our total revenues in the fist three months of 2015 and 2014, respectively.

 

(3) Dried Mushrooms. We dry and package fresh mushrooms and sell them to stores that sell products directly to individual customers. Our dried mushrooms include eryngii mushrooms, white jade mushrooms, white king oyster mushrooms and Ganoderma mushrooms.

 

The revenue from the sales of dried mushrooms was approximately 1% and 28% of our total revenues in the fist three months of 2015 and 2014, respectively.

 

Significant Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading have been included.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

Inventories

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined using moving weighted average method. Inventories consist of raw materials, finished goods and growing crops. Cost of finished goods comprises direct material and direct production cost based on normal operating capacity.

 

Property, Plant and Equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is calculated on the straight-line method after taking into account their respective estimated residual values over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

 

Building	20 years
Plant equipment	5-10 years
Office equipment	3-5 years
Vehicles	4  years

 

Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred, whereas significant renewals and betterments are capitalized.

 

Construction in progress represents capital assets under construction or being installed and is stated at cost. Cost comprises original cost of plant and equipment, installation, construction and other direct costs prior to the date of reaching the expected usable condition. Construction in progress is transferred to the property, plant and equipment and depreciation commences when the asset has been substantially completed and reaches the expected usable condition.

 

Land Use Rights

 

The Company states land use right at cost less accumulated amortization. The land use right is amortized on straight line method during the contract period.

 

Long Term Prepaid Lease

 

Leases where substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of assets remain with the lessor are accounted for as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases net of any incentives received from the lessor are charged to the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the terms of the underlying lease.

 

The Company records lease payments at cost less accumulated rent.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company engages in the business of growing, producing, marketing and selling fresh mushrooms, dried mushrooms, and mushroom seeds through its affiliated VIE, LiaoNing DingXu.

 

Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment from the Company’s facilities to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, ownership has passed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured.

 

The Company’s revenue consists of the invoiced value of goods, net of value-added tax (“VAT”).

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Under FASB ASC 820-10-05, the Financial Accounting Standards Board establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses reported on the balance sheet are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short term nature of the instruments. The Company had no other items that required fair value measurement on a recurring basis.

 

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

 

The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an “as if converted” basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the periods presented, there were no outstanding potential common stock equivalents and therefore basic and diluted earnings per share result in the same figure.

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company adopted FASB guidance on stock based compensation upon inception on September 9, 2010. Under FASB ASC 718-10-30-2, all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. The Company did not issue any share-based payments for services or compensation to employees, or otherwise for the periods presented.

 

Taxation

 

Taxation on profits earned in the PRC has been calculated on the estimated assessable profits for the year at the rates of taxation prevailing in the PRC where the Company operates after taking into account the benefits from any special tax credits or “tax holidays” allowed in the county of operations.

 

The Company does not accrue United States income tax since it has no operating income in the United States. The operating subsidiary is organized and located in the PRC and does not conduct any business in the United States.

 

Enterprise income tax

 

In accordance with the relevant tax laws in the PRC, as an agriculture growing enterprise, the operating subsidiary is exempted from enterprise income tax from 2010 to 2016. Accordingly, the Company statutory rate was 0% and 0% for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

 

Value added tax

 

The Provisional Regulations of The PRC concerning Value Added Tax promulgated by the State Council came into effect on January 1, 1994. Under these regulations and the Implementing Rules of the Provisional Regulations of the PRC Concerning Value Added Tax, value added tax is imposed on goods sold in or imported into the PRC and on processing, repair and replacement services provided within the PRC.

 

In accordance with the relevant tax laws in the PRC, as an agriculture growing enterprise, the Company is exempted from VAT from 2010 to 2016.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the parent company is the U.S. dollar and the functional currency of the Company’s operating subsidiaries and variable interest entities is the RMB. For the subsidiaries and variable interest entities whose functional currencies are the RMB, results of operations and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the period, assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate at the end of the period, and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive income. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred. All of the Company’s revenue transactions are transacted in the functional currency. The Company does not enter any material transaction in foreign currencies and accordingly, transaction gains or losses have not had, and are not expected to have, a material effect on the results of operations of the Company. In accordance with ASC Topic 230, cash flows from the Company’s operations are calculated based upon the local currencies using the average translation rate. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets.

 

Accumulated and Other Comprehensive Income

 

Accumulated other comprehensive income represents the change in equity of the Company during the periods presented from foreign currency translation adjustments.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

 

Results of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014

 

1. Revenue

 

The following table sets forth the breakdown of our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively:

 

		2015				2014
Fresh Mushrooms			1,492,866				2,142,407
Mushroom seeds			275,586				357,804
Dried mushrooms			9,692				947,337
Total revenue			1,778,144				3,447,548

 

We derived our revenues predominantly from sales of our mushroom products. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, revenues were $1,778,144 and $3,447,548, respectively, representing a decrease of $1,669,404.

 

The revenue from sales of our fresh mushrooms decreased $649,541 resulting from the decrease of sales price. As the Chinese government has embarked on a high-profile anti-corruption campaign, the gifts and catering market has significantly decreased. So, in order to continue selling the fresh mushrooms in a reasonable time, we cut prices to reduce inventories.

 

The revenue from sales of our mushroom seeds decreased $82,218, resulting from the decrease of sales price. As with the fresh mushrooms, the farmers needed fewer mushroom seeds to product mushrooms due to lower demand and therefore requested a lower price for the mushroom seeds.

 

The revenue from sales of our dried mushrooms decreased $937,645, also resulting from the above reasons. As the dried mushrooms are generally used for gifts, our sales of this product have significantly declined due to this situation.

 

2. Cost of revenue

 

The following table presents a breakdown of our cost of revenue of our mushroom products for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.

 

		2015				2014
Cost of fresh mushroom sales			1,095,382				903,540
Cost of mushroom seed sales			149,731				138,632
Cost of dried mushroom sales			3,070				193,171
Total			1,248,183				1,235,343

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, cost of fresh mushroom sales were $1,095,382 and $903,540 respectively, representing an increase of $191,842. The increase in cost was mainly related to spoilage of fresh mushrooms, due to the situation noted above which led to us not selling them in time, therefore, the production yield decreased and unit cost increased.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, cost of mushroom seed sales were $149,731 and $138,632, respectively, representing an increase of $11,099. The increase in cost was mainly related to the same reason with fresh mushroom.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, cost of dried mushroom sales were $3,070 and $193,171, respectively, representing a decrease of $190,101. The decrease in cost was related to that the Chinese government embarked on a high-profile anti-corruption. As the dried mushrooms are generally used for gifts, our sales of this product have significantly declined due to this situation.

3. Gross profit

 

The following table presents the gross profit of our businesses for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014:

 

Production Category		2015				2014
Fresh mushrooms sales			397,484				1,238,867
Mushroom seeds sales			125,855				219,172
Dried Mushroom sales			6,622				754,166
Total gross profit			529,961				2,212,205

 

Gross profit from our mushroom growing business decreased $1,682,244 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 compared to the same period of 2014. The decrease primarily resulted from the cumulative effect of sales price decreases for our fresh mushrooms, mushroom seeds and dried mushrooms due to the lower demand caused by the Chinese government anti-corruption campaign which led to fewer gifts of mushrooms.

 

4. Depreciation and amortization

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2015, our depreciation and amortization was $227,624, representing an increase of $40,155 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014. The increase was primarily a result of the new built workshop for soy source in June of 2014 that was be depreciated from July of 2014.

 

5. Bad debt

 

The bad debt represented an allowance for doubtful receivable accounts. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, our bad debt was $0, representing a decrease of $1,141,225 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014, resulting from the total $1,141,225 due from a related party was written off in the first quarter of 2014.

 

6. Other income (expense)

 

Other income (expense) is used to record the Company’s non-operating income, such as interest expense, government grants and adjustments of allowance for doubtful receivable accounts. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, the other income (expense) of ($2,478,959) compared to ($27,222) compared to the three months ended March 31, 2014. The increase in other expense is primarily due to the amortization of the convertible debt discount of $2,500,000 which was amortized into interest expense after the convertible debts were converted into common shares.

 

7. Income taxes

 

In accordance with the relevant tax laws, the Company statutory rate was 0% and 0% for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources:

 

To date, our operations have been funded by contributions from “due to related parties” and the net cash provided by operations. As a result, at March 31, 2015 we had $1,044,211 of current assets and $670,244 of current liabilities mainly consisting of the $545,700 due to related parties and $124,544 of other payables and accrued liabilities. We had a working capital of $373,967 as of March 31, 2015. As our business went down as the bad market situation, the working capital is likely not enough and there is a liquidity risk for the coming period. Although we believe management will continue to fund the Company on an as needed basis, we do not have a written agreement requiring such funding. For the due to related party, the shareholders promised that they would not demand repayment from the Company with in next fiscal year.

We believe that our operations will provide sufficient net cash to fund our business for the next 12 months. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, we had cash provided by operating activities was $532,477.

Investing Activities

 

No investing activity took place for the three months ended March 31, 2015.

 

Net cash used in investing activities was $1,141,225 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, which was primarily attributable to the loan to the director of our VIE.

 

Financing activities

 

No financing activity took place for the three months ended March 31, 2015.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $3,751 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, which was mainly attributable to advances made by related parties to the Company in the amount of $30,989 to pay for business expenses and repayment made to related parties in the amount of $27,238.

Impact of inflation

 

We are subject to commodity price risks arising from price fluctuations in the market prices of the raw materials. We have generally been able to pass on cost increases through price adjustments. However, the ability to pass on these increases depends on market conditions influenced by the overall economic conditions in China. We manage our price risks through productivity improvements and cost-containment measures. We do not believe that inflation risk is material to our business or our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Impact of foreign currency fluctuations

 

The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar. For the subsidiaries and variable interest entities whose functional currencies are the RMB, results of operations and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the period, assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate at the end of the period, and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive income. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred. All of the Company’s revenue transactions are transacted in the functional currency. The Company does not enter any material transaction in foreign currencies and accordingly, transaction gains or losses have not had, and are not expected to have, a material effect on the results of operations of the Company.

 

Financial Instruments

 

We have not used any financial instruments to manage funding or treasury since our inception.

 

Commitments for Capital Expenditures

 

We have no commitments for capital expenditures. For our business, we plan to obtain land use rights to more farmland and build additional greenhouses to expand our mushroom farms and increase the production of our fresh mushrooms. We have purchased, installed and tested equipment to be used in the production of dried-processed mushroom products, such as canned mushrooms and mushroom drinks. Our production of mushrooms is not sufficient to begin production of such products. We intend to begin production as soon as we purchase additional mushrooms and hire additional employees.

 

Research and Development

 

We have not incurred any research and development expenses since our inception.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We currently do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Not required for a Smaller Reporting Company.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure material information required to be disclosed in our reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required financial disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, we recognized that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level as of March 31, 2015 in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified under the Exchange Act rules and forms due to the material weakness described below. As a result, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure our consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

 

Material Weaknesses

 

Management evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2015. In making the assessment, management used the framework in “Internal Control –Integrated Framework” promulgated in 1992 by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, commonly referred to as the “COSO” criteria. Based on that assessment, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of March 31, 2015 because a material weakness existed in our internal control over financial reporting related to the classification of certain costs and expenses.

 

As a result, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure our consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. This quarterly report on Form 10-Q does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.

 

Description of Material Weaknesses at December 31, 2014

 

In 2014 the Company had pervasive material weaknesses existed in our internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, the Company does not have an independent board of directors or audit committee or adequate segregation of duties.  All of our financial reporting is carried out by our financial consultant. We do not have an independent body to oversee our internal controls over financial reporting and lack segregation of duties due to the limited nature and resources of the Company. 

Remediation of Material Weakness

 

The Company intends to establish the following remediation efforts:

 

(1)	Commence a process and procedure to locate, and nominate for election to the Company’s board of directors, independent directors, including at least one individual qualified to be an audit committee financial expert;

 

(2)	At such time as independent directors are elected to the Company’s board of directors, establish an independent audit committee;

 

(3)	Commence a process and procedure to locate and hire qualified individuals to act as Chief Financial Officer and/or Chief Accounting Officer; and

 

(4)

Under the supervision of the Audit Committee and with the assistance of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer procure the resources, appoint additional personnel and establish the procedures necessary to produce Internal Controls over Financial Reporting that will be effective as evaluated under the framework in “Internal Control – Integrated Framework” promulgated in 2014 by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

 

Conclusion

 

We believe the measures described above will remediate the material weaknesses we have identified and will continue to strengthen our internal controls over financial reporting. We are committed to continually improving our internal control processes and will diligently and vigorously review our financial reporting controls and procedures. As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal controls over financial reporting, we may determine that additional measures are necessary to address control deficiencies. Moreover, we may decide to modify certain of the remediation measures described above.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the first quarter of 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
