Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Directors of
Naturewell, Incorporated

 

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Naturewell, Incorporated (the "Company") as of December 31, 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operation, and cash flows for the six months and three months ended December 31, 2009 and for the period from May 13, 2008 to December 31, 2009. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note O to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has no operating business and has substantial amounts of debt that is in default as well as having a number of unpaid creditors. Without an operating business the Company has no revenue, cash flow or earnings available to meet its obligations. Those factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NATUREWELL, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

 

A.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of only normal and recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of NatureWell, Incorporated (the "Company"), as of December 31, 2009, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the six-month and three-month period ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial reporting and with instructions to Form 10-Q and, accordingly, do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Form 10-K registration report for the period ending June 30, 2009 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The accounting policies followed for interim financial reporting are the same as those disclosed in Note A of the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Form 10-K registration report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009.

 

B.  FORMATION OF SUBSIDIARIES:

NASAL MIST, INC.

The Company owns 91.9% of Nasal Mist ("NMI"), a subsidiary formed by the Company during August 1997, NMI is dormant and not engaged in any operating activities and there are no plans to engage in any activities in the future.

 

C.  NOTES RECEIVABLE

Note receivable consists of three notes each for $25,000, face value, issued to the Company in exchange for $75,000 in cash. All three notes are issued by Wine & Culinary Concepts, Inc. ("W&CC"). The first note is dated September 16, 2008 and accrues interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum and was scheduled to mature on December 31, 2008 at which time all principal and interest accrued was due and payable. By agreement between the Company and W&CC the maturity on the first note has been extended until December 31, 2009. The second note is dated December 11, 2008 and accrues interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum until its maturity on December 31, 2009 at which time all principal and interest accrued thereon shall be due and payable. The third note is dated February 6, 2009 and accrues interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum until its maturity on December 31, 2009 at which time all principal and interest accrued thereon shall be due and payable. None of the three notes were paid on their due date and the Company is attempting to secure payment of the three notes (see also Footnote Q - "Subsequent Events"). Each or all of the notes may be forced into converting into the Company's Series E Preferred stock if they are transferred to any person or entity other than the Company and the Company and W&CC have entered into a transaction whereby W&CC becomes a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

D.  INVENTORY:

The Company had no Inventory as of December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009.

 

E.  BASIC AND FULLY DILUTED LOSS PER COMMON SHARE:

The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for earnings (loss) per share for entities with publicly held common stock. The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 260 effective since its inception.

Basic earnings (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted earnings (loss) per common share is similar to that of basic earnings (loss) per common share, except that the numerator and denominator are adjusted to reflect the decrease in earnings per share or the increase in loss per share that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock, such as stock options and convertible notes, were exercised or converted into common stock.

The Company was required to compute primary and diluted income per share amounts for 2009 and primary and diluted loss per share amounts for 2008 pursuant to ASC 260.

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

 

F.  WARRANTS, OPTIONS AND STOCK BASED COMPENSATION:

The Company has no warrants or options outstanding as of December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009.

In May of 2004 the Company adopted its 2004 Incentive Stock Bonus and Option Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan is intended to advance the interests of the Company by affording to selected employees, directors and consultants, an opportunity for investment in the Company and the incentives inherent in stock ownership in the Company and to provide the Company with a means of attracting, compensating, and retaining the services of selected employees, directors and consultants. It initially allowed for the issuance of 10,000,000 shares of common stock, covered by a Registration Statement on Form S-8, subject to the board's authority to amend the Plan ("S-8 Stock").

On December 21, 2005, the Plan was amended to allow for the issuance of up to 30,000,000 shares of S-8 Stock. In addition to the shares authorized by the Plan, the Company may issue restricted shares, or securities that convert into restricted common stock (including convertible notes), to non-employees, employees, directors and consultants for services. Shares issued to non-employees, employees and directors in return for services are valued under the fair value method in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Based Compensation. At December 31, 2009, 18,642,742 shares of common stock were issued under the Plan.

The Company had no stock-based employee compensation for the six month periods ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.

 

G.  PREFERRED STOCK:

The Company has outstanding 75 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series C Preferred"). Each share of Series C Preferred has a $1,000 liquidation preference, and all 75 shares are owned by Dutchess Private Equities Fund, Ltd. ("Dutchess"), the Company's largest senior secured creditor (see also Note I - "Loans Payable" and Note P - "Related Party Transactions"). Pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation for the Series C Preferred, Dutchess is allowed to cast a vote on all matters that the Company's shareholders are permitted to vote upon, equal to 0.7% of all outstanding securities that are eligible to vote at the time of such shareholder action for each share of Series C Convertible Preferred that it owns (0.7% X 75 shares = 52.5% of total vote). Each share of Series C Preferred is convertible into 25,000 shares of the Company's common stock (1,875,000 total).

The Company has outstanding 3,115 shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series E Preferred"). Each share of Series E Preferred has a $1,000 liquidation preference, and all 3,155 shares are owned by Dutchess Private Equities Fund, Ltd. ("Dutchess"), the Company's largest senior secured creditor (see also Note I - "Loans Payable" and Note P - "Related Party Transactions"). Pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation for the Series E Preferred, each share is convertible into 1,333 shares of common stock (which conversion price is not subject to adjustment due to a reverse split), provided however, in no event shall the Company permit such conversion, into that number of shares of common stock which, when added to number of shares of common stock already beneficially owned (as such term is defined under Section 13(d) and Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), by the holder, would cause the holder's beneficial ownership of common stock to exceed 4.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding as of the conversion date for the shares of Series E Preferred that the holder seeks to convert. On any matter for which the shareholders of the Company are entitled to vote, each share of Series E Preferred shall be entitled to cast a number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of common stock into which such share of Series E Preferred could then be converted into.

 

H.  SERIES A COMMON STOCK

The Company has 20,000,000 authorized shares of Series A Common Stock of which 19,000,000 shares are issued and outstanding all of which are owned by Dutchess. Each share of Series A Common Stock shall entitle the holder to cast ten (10) votes for all matters presented to the shareholders for vote, and each share may be converted at the option of the holder into one share of regular Common Stock by surrendering to the Company the certificate or certificates evidencing the shares of Series A Common Stock to be converted together with a written request that the shares be so converted. Holders of regular Common Stock and Series A Common Stock shall vote together as a single class on all matters as to which holders of the class of common stock are entitled to vote, except as may be otherwise required by law.

At December 31, 2009, the 19,000,000 shares of Series A Common Stock were eligible to cast a vote equal to 7.2% of the eligible votes possessed by the common stock as a class (190,000,000 votes of an eligible 2,638,665,750 votes) and 3.41% of the eligible votes possessed by the common stock and preferred stock voting together (190,000,000 votes of an eligible 5,563,770,621).

L.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Unsecured Creditors of the Company

The Company is in payment default on an unsecured note totaling $19,774, including interest thereon of $7,822 which accrues interest at the rate of 8% per annum. Whenever feasible, the Company negotiates with these creditors to reach settlement agreements that are acceptable to the Company, including agreements to swap equity for debt owed to these creditors. However, if the Company is unable to reach acceptable settlement arrangements it may be subject to various collection actions.

Litigation and Legal Proceedings

As of December 31, 2009, the Company maintains a litigation reserve of $125,102 for the payment of past due unsecured creditors for which it does not have a defined payment arrangement (including creditors whose debts were extinguished due to the statute of limitations expiring for such creditors to take legal action to collect their debt). Notwithstanding the litigation reserve established, in the light of the Company's current financial condition, the Company's cash liability, if any, arising from legal proceedings, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

M.  STOCK ISSUANCES:

For the period ended December 31, 2009, the Company made no issuances of stock.

 

N.  INCOME TAXES:

As of December 31, 2009, the Company had net operating loss carry-forwards totaling approximately $26,681,536, before any limitations. The carry-forwards expire through 2029.

The realization of any future income tax benefits from the utilization of net operating losses may be severely limited. Federal and state tax laws contain complicated change of control provisions (generally when a more than 50 percent ownership change occurs within a three-year period), which, if triggered, could limit or eliminate the use of the Company's net operating loss carry-forwards.

 

O.  GOING CONCERN:

Currently, the Company is a shell company as defined under Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and has no operating business. The Company requires capital to comply with its reporting requirements under the Act and also has substantial amounts of debt that is in default as well as having a number of unpaid creditors. Without an operating business the Company has no revenue, cash flow or earnings available to meet its obligations. Consequently, the Company will likely need to raise additional capital to meet its reporting requirements and to defend, when necessary, against creditors that attempt to collect on their debt. These factors, as well as the risks associated with raising capital through the issuance of equity and/or debt securities creates uncertainty as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company's plan to address its going concern issues is to locate a viable operating business to acquire or merge with, however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate such a transaction, or that if a transaction is completed that it would be on terms that are favorable to the then-shareholders.

 

P.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

On January 26, 2009 the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Release (the "Agreement") with Dutchess Private Equities Fund, Ltd., its largest senior secured creditor. The Agreement was made effective as of January 1, 2009. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Dutchess agreed to exchange seventeen (17) senior secured notes issued to it by the Company, for which there was an aggregate remaining balance due, including all accrued and unpaid interest and/or penalties, if any, in the amount of approximately $5,298,139 as of January 1, 2009, for the following; (i) A senior secured note, face value $300,000, which matures on January 1, 2012, pays interest of six percent (6%) per annum and requires minimum monthly payments of $6,000 beginning on March 1, 2009. The $300,000 note is secured by a lien on all of the Company's assets and is equal in rank with all other senior secured debt of the Company; and (ii) A senior secured note, face value $1,883,000, which accrues interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum until maturity on January 1, 2011, at which time all principal and interest accrued thereon are due in full. The $1,883,000 note is secured by a lien on all of the Company's assets and is equal in rank with all other senior secured debt of the Company; and (iii) 3,115 restricted shares of the Company's Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (see also Note I - "Loans Payable" and Note K - "Notes Payable and Long Term Payables"). Two of the Company's three directors, Michael A. Novielli and Douglas H. Leighton, are also directors of Dutchess Private Equities Fund, Ltd.

The Agreement also contains a full mutual general release between the parties and each of their respective Affiliated Parties.

Q.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

In accordance with ASC 855, Subsequent Events, the Company has evaluated subsequent events through February 17, 2010, the date of issuance of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

By letter dated February 10, 2010 the Company issued a Notice of Default to Wine & Culinary Concepts for three notes that W&CC has issued to the Company (see also Footnote C - "Notes Receivable"). All three notes are due and payable on December 31, 2009, including interest accrued thereon. The Notice of Default makes demand for full and immediate payment of the three notes. The Company has not received any response from W&CC at this time is unable to ascertain the likelihood of collecting payment on the notes.

 

R.  OTHER INCOME/DEBT FORGIVENESS:

For the three month period ending December 31, 2009 the Company had other income from the forgiveness of debt totaling $407,247. That amount is comprised of the elimination of four notes a follows: (i) two senior secured convertible notes totaling $184,045, including interest accrued thereon of $74,045, (ii) one senior secured note totaling $162,122, including interest accrued thereon of $87,122, and (iii) one subordinated secured note totaling $61,081, including interest accrued thereon of $22,263. Each of the four notes has been in payment default for in excess of three years and none of the holders of the four notes has ever initiated any collection action against the Company. The Intercreditor Agreement governs the terms of all senior secured and subordinated secured debt. Pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement: (a) the time-period that must elapse before the Company may plead any statute of limitations as a defense to any claim made by any Senior Lender or Subordinated Lender shall be two and one half (2/12) years, (b) any provision contained in any Senior Loan Document or any Subordinated Loan Document that waives or terminates the Company's right to plead any statute of limitations shall be null and void, and (c) all Senior Lenders and all Subordinated Lenders waive any right to plead or assert in any court of law that any statute of limitations is/was either waived, prevented from starting, tolled, interrupted or restarted for any reason. As such the Company has written off the notes as uncollectible due to the expiration of the statute of limitations provisions contained in the governing Intercreditor Agreement.

Overview

NatureWell, Incorporated (the "Company") is a public company whose common stock is quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board ("OTC-BB") under the symbol "NAWL." The Company is a shell company as defined under Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and has no operating business. Any plan of operations would be developed in conjunction with an acquisition of or merger with an operating company as yet unidentified.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND PLAN OF OPERATION

THREE MONTH PERIOD ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2009 AS COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTH PERIOD ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2008

The Company incurred net income of $347,762 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2009, compared with a net loss of $210,198 for the period ended December 31, 2008. This represents an increase in net income of $557,960 from the period ending December 31, 2008. The increase in net income is primarily due to an increase in other income and a reduction of interest expense.

SIX MONTH PERIOD ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2009 AS COMPARED TO THE SIX MONTH PERIOD ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2008

The Company had net income of $295,990 for the six-month period ended December 31, 2009, compared with a net loss of $405,315 for the period ended December 31, 2008. This represents an increase in net income of $701,305 from the period ending December 31, 2008. The increase in net income is primarily due to an increase in other income and a reduction of interest expense.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Pending an acquisition of or merger with another business or company, the Company anticipates that it will need capital to continue to make its required public filings, defend against creditor suits or actions and to reach settlements with creditors when advisable. The Company will need to obtain additional working capital to fund its business operations through additional working capital loans from Dutchess. There can be no assurance that Dutchess will provide any additional financing to the Company, which, if not provided, could result in the Company being unable to continue as a going concern.

At December 31, 2009, the Company had current assets of $86,991, including cash of $3,521 and notes receivable of $83,470.

The Company intends to seek opportunities to acquire or merge with an operating company and is actively seeking such a transaction. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in locating an acquisition or merger candidate or that it will be able to consummate a transaction with a candidate over the next twelve months. The Company's ability to repay its debt and/or further restructure its balance sheet is highly dependent upon its success in identifying and transacting an acquisition or merger. Additionally, the Company believes that an acquisition or merger may require the raising of additional capital to facilitate such a transaction, however at this time the Company has no specific plans for raising additional capital as such needs, if any, are unknown at this time. 

PLAN OF OPERATION

The Company has no ongoing operations and any plan of operations would be developed in conjunction with the transaction of an acquisition of or merger with an operating company as yet unidentified.

EXPECTED CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

Over the next twelve months the Company's capital requirements are unknown except in regard to monies needed to make its filings required by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company expects that its current cash on hand along with additional borrowings from Dutchess will be adequate to cover the expenses related to continuing to report as a public company, however, there can be no assurance that Dutchess will be willing to provide such further funding.

EXPECTED RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES

None.

EXPECTED PURCHASES OR SALES OF PLANT AND SIGNIFICANT EQUIPMENT

None.

EXPECTED CHANGES IN NUMBER OF EMPLOYEES

The Company has 2 consultants/officers (a part-time CEO and part-time CFO) and does not expect to add any new employees over the next twelve months unless an acquisition or merger is completed within that time-frame.

ITEM 3.  QUANTATITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not required.

 

ITEM 4T.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a)  Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is: (1) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure; and (2) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms.

(b)  Changes in Internal Controls over financial reporting

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during our last fiscal quarter, which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will necessarily prevent all fraud and material errors. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving our objectives and our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at that reasonable assurance level. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. 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, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

PART II

 

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

At December 31, 2009 the Company has a litigation reserve totaling $125,102 which it maintains for legal and settlement costs associated with its restructuring efforts and for litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Notwithstanding the litigation reserve established, in the light of the Company's current financial condition, the Company's cash liability, if any, arising from legal proceedings, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position and ability to continue as a going concern. Currently the Company is not involved in any legal proceedings.

 

ITEM 1A.  RISK FACTORS

Not required.

 

ITEM 2.  UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

The Company did not make the required March 1, 2009 payment on the note and has not made any required payments thereafter, however Dutchess has not initiated any collection action and has not given notice of any intent to exercise any remedies available under the terms of the note.
