Independent Film Development Corporation

Development Stage Company)

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2009



NOTE 1: HISTORY OF OPERATIONS


Business Activity.


Independent Film Development Corporation was incorporated on September 14, 2007 in the State of Nevada. The Company filed an election n to operate as a Business Development Company (“BDC”) under Section 54(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (“1940 Act”) on April 24, 2008, but withdrew its election on September 30, 2009, and currently has a plan of operations to develop and distribute filmed entertainment.  For the ease of the reader, these financial statements have been prepared as if the Company were a development stage enterprise since inception.


The Company is currently a development stage company under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 7.  


NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Going Concern


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has not generated any significant revenue during the period September 14, 2007 (inception) thorough September 30, 2009 and has funded its operations primarily through the issuance of equity. This matter raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, the Company’s ability to accomplish its business strategy and to ultimately achieve profitable operations is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional debt or equity financing. Management plans to take the following steps that it believes will be sufficient to provide the Company with the ability to continue in existence:


Management intends to raise financing through private equity financing or other means and interests that it deems necessary.  The Company, as described above, is in the business of investing in operations of other companies. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its endeavor.


Cash and cash equivalents


For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.


6



Stock Based Compensation


Shares of the Company’s common stock may be issued for services. These issuances are valued at the fair market value of the services provided and the number of shares issued is determined based upon what the price of the common stock is on the date of each respective transaction.


Estimates


The presentation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments


The carrying amounts for the Company’s cash, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and current portion of long term debt approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.


Income Taxes


In February 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” SFAS No. 109 required a change from the deferred method of accounting for income taxes of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 11 to the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method of SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to 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. Under SFAS No. 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.



Earnings (Loss) Per Share


In February 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share.” SFAS No. 128 simplifies the standards for computing earnings per share (“EPS”) and was effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997, with earlier application not permitted. Upon adoption, all prior EPS data was restated.


Basic EPS is determined using net income divided by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding, assuming all dilutive potential common shares were issued.

NOTE 4: RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS


In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) (formerly issued as Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles — a replacement of FASB SFAS No. 162), as the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. GAAP launched on July 1, 2009.  The ASC does not change current U.S. GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all the authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. All existing accounting standard documents will be superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the ASC will be considered no authoritative. The ASC is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The ASC is for disclosure only and will not impact our financial condition or results of operations.  The Company has adopted this pronouncement effective as of September 30, 2009. The adoption of this ASC had no impact on our financial reporting process.


On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted ASC Subtopic 815-10 (formerly SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities — an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133), which provides revised guidance for enhanced disclosures about how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments and the related hedged items are accounted for under ASC Topic 815, and how derivative instruments and the related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows.  Since the Company currently does not have any derivative instruments, there are no additional disclosures required.


On January 1, 2009, the company adopted guidance issued by the FASB on business combinations ASC 805 including that the purchase method be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. This standard defines the acquirer as the entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in the business combination and establishes the acquisition date as the date that the acquirer achieves control instead of the date that the consideration is transferred. In a business combination, including business combinations achieved in stages (step acquisition), the acquirer is required to recognize the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date, with limited exceptions. It also requires the recognition of assets acquired and liabilities assumed arising from certain contractual contingencies as of the acquisition date, measured at their acquisition-date fair values. Additionally, it requires acquisition-related costs to be expensed in the period in which the costs are incurred and the services are received instead of including such costs as part of the acquisition price. The adoption has not had a material impact on the company’s financial statements.


In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 820 “Determining Fair Values When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly." This FSP provides guidance on (1) estimating the fair value of an asset or liability when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly declined and (2) identifying transactions that are not orderly. The FSP also amends certain disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 157 to require, among other things, disclosures in interim periods of the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value. This pronouncement is effective prospectively beginning April 1, 2009. The Company has determined that the impact that the adoption of this standard will not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations and financial condition.


In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 820 and ASC 320-10-65 "Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments". This ASC modifies the requirements for recognizing other-than-temporarily impaired debt securities and changes the existing impairment model for such securities.



8



The ASC also requires additional disclosures for both annual and interim periods with respect to both debt and equity securities. Under the ASC, impairment of debt securities will be considered other-than-temporary if an entity (1) intends to sell the security, (2) more likely than not will be required to sell the security before recovering its cost, or (3) does not expect to recover the security's entire amortized cost basis. The ASC further indicates that, depending on which of the above factor(s) causes the impairment to be considered other-than-temporary, (1) the entire shortfall of the security's fair value versus its amortized cost basis or (2) only the credit loss portion would be recognized in earnings while the remaining shortfall (if any) would be recorded in other comprehensive income. ASC 820 requires entities to initially apply the provisions of the standard to previously other-than-temporarily impaired debt securities existing as of the date of initial adoption by making a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The cumulative-effect adjustment potentially reclassifies the noncredit portion of a previously other-than-temporarily impaired debt security held as of the date of initial adoption from retained earnings to accumulated other comprehensive income. This pronouncement is effective April 1, 2009. The Company has adopted this pronouncement; and determined that there was no impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations as a result of the adoption.


In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 825, "Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments." This ASC essentially expands the disclosure about fair value of financial instruments that were previously required only annually to also be required for interim period reporting. In addition, the ASC requires certain additional disclosures regarding the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments.  The Company has applied this pronouncement in the current reporting period.


In May 2009, the FASB issued, "Subsequent Events ASC 855-10-05, which provides guidance to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. ASC 855-10-05 also requires entities to disclose the date through which subsequent events were evaluated as well as the rationale for why that date was selected. ASC 855-10-05 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, and accordingly, the Company adopted this pronouncement during the second quarter of 2009. ASC 855-10-05 requires that public entities evaluate subsequent events through the date that the financial statements are issued. The Company has looked at subsequent events through the issuance date of these statement and has concluded that there are no material subsequent events for disclosure.


In June 2009, the FASB issued, "Accounting For Transfers of Financial Assets -- An Amendment Of FASB Statement ASC860, which requires entities to provide more information regarding sales of securitized financial assets and similar transactions, particularly if the entity has continuing exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. ASC 860 eliminates the concept of a "qualifying special-purpose entity", changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets and requires additional disclosures. ASC 860 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company has determined that ASC860 will not have a material impact on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.


In June 2009, the FASB issued "Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46 (RASC 810-10, which modifies how a company determines when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled through voting (or similar rights) should be consolidated. ASC 810-10 clarifies that the determination of whether a company is required to consolidate an entity is based on, among other things, an entity's purpose and design and a company's ability to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance.


9



ASC 810-10 requires an ongoing reassessment of whether a company is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. SFAS 167 also requires additional disclosures about a company's involvement in variable interest entities and any significant changes in risk exposure due to that involvement. ASC 810-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company has determined that the adoption of impact ASC 810-10 will not have a material impact on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.


In February 2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-9 Subsequent Events (Topic 855) Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements ("ASU 2010-9"). ASU 2010-9 amends disclosure requirements within Subtopic 855-10. An entity that is an SEC filer is not required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This change alleviates potential conflicts between Subtopic 855-10 and the SEC's requirements. ASU 2010-9 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2010. The Company has  determined that the adoption of ASU 2010-09 will not have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position.


In January 2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-6 Improving Disclosures about Fair Measurements ("ASU 2010-6"). ASU 2010-6 provides amendments to subtopic 820-10 that require separate disclosure of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and the presentation of separate information regarding purchases, sales, issuances and settlements for Level 3 fair value measurements. Additionally, ASU 2010-6 provides amendments to subtopic 820-10 that clarify existing disclosures about the level of disaggregation and inputs and valuation techniques. ASU 2010-6 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2010. The Company has determined that the adoption of ASU 2010-06 will not have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position.


In January 2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-2 Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary- a Scope Clarification ("ASU 2010-2"). ASU 2010-2 addresses implementation issues related to the changes in ownership provisions in the Consolidation—Overall Subtopic (Subtopic 810-10) of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, originally issued as FASB Statement No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements. Subtopic 810-10 establishes the accounting and reporting guidance for noncontrolling interests and changes in ownership interests of a subsidiary. An entity is required to deconsolidate a subsidiary when the entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in the subsidiary. Upon deconsolidation of a subsidiary, an entity recognizes a gain or loss on the transaction and measures any retained investment in the subsidiary at fair value. The gain or loss includes any gain or loss associated with the difference between the fair value of the retained investment in the subsidiary and its carrying amount at the date the subsidiary is deconsolidated. In contrast, an entity is required to account for a decrease in ownership interest of a subsidiary that does not result in a change of control of the subsidiary as an equity transaction. ASU 2010-2 is effective for the Company starting January 1, 2010. The Company has determined that the adoption of ASU 2010-2 will not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations or financial position.


In December 2009, FASB issued ASU 2009-17 Consolidations (Topic 810) Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities ("ASU 2009-17"). ASU 2009-17 amends the FASB ASC for the issuance of FASB Statement No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R).


10



The amendments in ASU 2009-17 replace the quantitative-based risks and rewards calculation for determining which enterprise, if any, has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity with an approach focused on identifying which enterprise has the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and (1) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or (2) the right to receive benefits from the entity. ASU 2009-17 also requires additional disclosures about an enterprise's involvement in variable interest entities. ASU 2009-17 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity's first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009. The Company has determined that the adoption of ASU 2009-17 will not have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position.


In December 2009, FASB issued ASU 2009-16 Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860) Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets ("ASU 2009-16"). ASU 2009-16 amends the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the issuance of FASB Statement No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140. The amendments in ASU 2009-16 improve financial reporting by eliminating the exceptions for qualifying special-purpose entities from the consolidation guidance and the exception that permitted sale accounting for certain mortgage securitizations when a transferor has not surrendered control over the transferred financial assets. In addition, the amendments require enhanced disclosures about the risks that a transferor continues to be exposed to because of its continuing involvement in transferred financial assets. ASU 2009-16 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity's first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009.  The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2009-16 to have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations or financial position.


 In August 2009, FASB issued ASU 2009-4 Accounting for Redeemable Equity Instruments—an Amendment to Section 480-10-S99 ("ASU 2009-4"). ASU 2009-4 represents a Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") update to Section 480-10-S99, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. The adoption of guidance within ASU 2009-4 will not have an impact on the Company's results of operations or financial position.


FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value measurement and Disclosures”, an Accounting Standard Update. In September 2009, the FASB issued this Update to amendments to Subtopic 82010, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”. Overall, for the fair value measurement of investments in certain entities that calculates net asset value per share (or its equivalent). The amendments in this Update permit, as a practical expedient, a reporting entity to measure the fair value of an investment that is within the scope of the amendments in this Update on the basis of the net asset value per share of the investment (or its equivalent) if the net asset value of the investment (or its equivalent) is calculated in a manner consistent with the measurement principles of Topic 946 as of the reporting entity’s measurement date, including measurement of all or substantially all of the underlying investments of the investee in accordance with Topic 820. The amendments in this Update also require disclosures by major category of investment about the attributes of investments within the scope of the amendments in this Update, such as the nature of any restrictions on the investor’s ability to redeem its investments at the measurement date, any unfunded commitments (for example, a contractual commitment by the investor to invest a specified amount of additional capital at a future date to fund investments that will be made by the investee), and the investment strategies of the investees.


11



The major category of investment is required to be determined on the basis of the nature and risks of the investment in a manner consistent with the guidance for major security types in GAAP on investments in debt and equity securities in paragraph 320-10-50-lB. The disclosures are required for all investments within the scope of the amendments in this Update regardless of whether the fair value of the investment is measured using the practical expedient. The amendments in this Update apply to all reporting entities that hold an investment that is required or permitted to be measured or disclosed at fair value on a recurring or non recurring basis and, as of the reporting entity’s measurement date, if the investment meets certain criteria The amendments in this Update are effective for the interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2009.  The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material effect on the Company’s financial reporting.

These risks and other factors include, among others, those listed under “Risk Factors” in Part II Item 1a. and those included elsewhere in this filing.  For a more detailed discussion of risks and uncertainties, see the Company’s public filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements.


Plan of Operations


The company has focused since its inception on forming its corporate structure, developing its business plan and raising capital.  The company is a development stage company with a plan of operations as set forth below.

IFDC’s overall plan of operations is to acquire and develop independent films for production, sales and distribution, with a goal toward significant partnerships with mini-major and the major film studios, such as Lionsgate and Sony, while simultaneously emulating those companies’ recipes for success. Some of these endeavors will include Maxim but many will be independent of Maxim and in partnership with similar distribution/production companies or with mini or major studios. The Maxim agreement has no clauses preventing IFDC in procuring any independent business outside of Maxim.  


Currently IFDC has no active operational business that specializes in the marketing and sale of independent films. However, IFDC does have a management and marketing sales staff with over 23 years of collective experience in identifying, producing, marketing and selling filmed entertainment.  The majority of IFDC’s Sales/Distribution business operates in a small, low risk, and profitable segment of the entertainment industry that connects the independent filmmakers directly to the domestic and foreign distribution outlets worldwide.


IFDC’s mission is to develop, produce and acquire films with high profit margins and built in “profit” safety nets. We will seek to leverage the combined talents of an experienced management/producing and sales/distribution team to develop, produce and acquire films for sale and distribution, IFDC will look to incorporate and acquire additional entertainment business’s that compliment and assist our current portfolio to increase the value of our overall securities, and enhance shareholder value.

During the next twelve months, we plan to satisfy our cash requirements by funding from our principals and additional equity financing.  However, we may be unsuccessful in raising additional equity financing, and, thus, be able to satisfy its cash requirements.


We will need a minimum of $500,000 to satisfy our cash requirements for the next twelve months.  We will not be able to operate if it we do not obtain equity financing through subsequent private offerings, or contributions from our principals.  If only a minimal amount of financing is raised, we will continue to satisfy our cash requirements by contributions from our principals, which we expect will continue to contribute for the next twelve months. We depend upon capital to be derived from future financing activities such as subsequent offerings of our stock. Management believes that, if this offering and the subsequent private placements are successful, we will be able to generate revenue and become profitable from advertising sales and achieve liquidity within the next twelve months.


Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies


The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and plan of operations is based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates including, among others, those affecting revenue, the allowance for doubtful accounts, the salability of inventory and the useful lives of tangible and intangible assets. The discussion below is intended as a brief discussion of some of the judgments and uncertainties that can impact the application of these policies and the specific dollar amounts reported on our financial statements. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form our basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, or if management made different judgments or utilized different estimates. Many of our estimates or judgments are based on anticipated future events or performance, and as such are forward-looking in nature, and are subject to many risks and uncertainties, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this Registration Statement. We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise this discussion to reflect any future events or circumstances.


We have identified below some of our accounting policies that we consider critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results of operations. This is not a complete list of all of our accounting policies, and there may be other accounting policies that are significant to us. For a detailed discussion on the application of these and our other accounting policies, see note 1 to the financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2009, included in this Form 10Q.



Stock Based Compensation


Shares of the Company’s common stock may be issued for services. These issuances are valued at the fair market value of the services provided and the number of shares issued is determined based upon what the price of the common stock is on the date of each respective transaction.


14



Estimates


The presentation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments


The carrying amounts for the Company’s cash,  and related party payables approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.


Income Taxes


In February 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” SFAS No. 109 required a change from the deferred method of accounting for income taxes of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 11 to the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method of SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to 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. Under SFAS No. 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.


Earnings (Loss) Per Share


In February 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share.” SFAS No. 128 simplifies the standards for computing earnings per share (“EPS”) and was effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997, with earlier application not permitted. Upon adoption, all prior EPS data was restated.


Basic EPS is determined using net income divided by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding, assuming all dilutive potential common shares were issued.


Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk


The Company’s business activities contain elements of risk. The Company considers a principal type of market risk to be a valuation risk. All assets will be valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Board of Directors, which will be based on our geologic reports.  Market prices of common equity securities in general, are subject to fluctuations which could cause the amount to be realized upon sale to differ significantly from the current reported value. The fluctuations may result from perceived changes in the underlying economic characteristics of the Company’s assets, general market conditions and supply and demand.

Item 4: Controls and Procedures


As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Company carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2009. In designing and evaluating the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, the Company recognizes that there are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their desired control objectives. Additionally, in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures, the Company’s management was required to apply its reasonable judgment. Based upon the required evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of December 31, 2009, sufficient procedures over financial reporting existed which management believes is effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.


Item 4T: Controls and Procedures


This item is not applicable because this is not an annual report for a fiscal year ending on or after September 30, 2007 but before December 15, 2008.


PART II – OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1. Legal Proceedings


In the normal course of business, the Company is, and in the future may be, subject to various disputes, claims, lawsuits, and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business with respect to commercial, employment and other matters, which could involve substantial amounts of damages. In the opinion of management, any liability related to any such known proceedings would have a material adverse effect on the business or financial condition of the Company.  Additionally, from time to time, we may pursue litigation against third parties to enforce or protect our rights under our contracts, trademarks, trade secrets and our intellectual property rights generally.  At the present time, the Company is not the subject of any lawsuits or claims.


Item 1A Risk Factors


We are subject to various risks which may materially harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below and the other information in this filing before deciding to purchase our common stock. If any of these risks or uncertainties actually occurs, our business, financial condition or operating results could be materially harmed. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment.

We are a relatively young company with no operating history

 

Since we are a young company, it is difficult to evaluate our business and prospects. At this stage of our business operations, even with our good faith efforts, potential investors have a high probability of losing their investment. Our future operating results will depend on many factors, including the ability to generate sustained and increased demand and acceptance of our products, the level of our competition, and our ability to attract and maintain key management and employees. While management believes their estimates of projected occurrences and events are within the timetable of their business plan, there can be no guarantees or assurances that the results anticipated will occur.


We expect to incur net losses in future quarters.

 

If we do not achieve profitability, our business may not grow or operate. We may not achieve sufficient revenues or profitability in any future period. We will need to generate revenues from the sales of our products or take steps to reduce operating costs to achieve and maintain profitability. Even if we are able to generate revenues, we may experience price competition that will lower our gross margins and our profitability. If we do achieve profitability, we cannot be certain that we can sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis.

 

We will require additional funds to operate in accordance with our business plan.

 

We may not be able to obtain additional funds that we may require. We do not presently have adequate cash from operations or financing activities to meet our short or long-term needs.  If unanticipated expenses, problems, and unforeseen business difficulties occur, which result in material delays, we will not be able to operate within our budget. If we do not achieve our internally projected sales revenues and earnings, we will not be able to operate within our budget. If we do not operate within our budget, we will require additional funds to continue our business. If we are unsuccessful in obtaining those funds, we cannot assure you of our ability to generate positive returns to the Company. Further, we may not be able to obtain the additional funds that we require on terms acceptable to us, if at all. We do not currently have any established third-party bank credit arrangements. If the additional funds that we may require are not available to us, we may be required to curtail significantly or to eliminate some or all of our development, manufacturing, or sales and marketing programs.

 

We may seek to obtain them primarily through equity or debt financings. Such additional financing, if available on terms and schedules acceptable to us, if available at all, could result in dilution to our current stockholders and to you. We may also attempt to obtain funds through arrangement with corporate partners or others. Those types of arrangements may require us to relinquish certain rights to our intellectual property or resulting products.

We are highly dependent on Jeff Ritchie, our CEO. The loss of Mr. Ritchie, whose knowledge, leadership, and technical expertise upon which we rely, would harm our ability to execute our business plan.

 

We are largely dependent on Jeff Ritchie, our CEO, for specific proprietary technical knowledge. Our ability to successfully market and distribute our products may be at risk from an unanticipated accident, injury, illness, incapacitation, or death of Mr. Ritchie. Upon such occurrence, unforeseen expenses, delays, losses and/or difficulties may be encountered.  Our success may also depend on our ability to attract and retain other qualified management and sales and marketing personnel. We compete for such persons with other companies and other organizations, some of which have substantially greater capital resources than we do. We cannot give you any assurance that we will be successful in recruiting or retaining personnel of the requisite caliber or in adequate numbers to enable us to conduct our business.


If  capital  is  not  available  to  us to expand our business operations,  we  will  not  be able to pursue our business plan.


We will  require  substantial  additional  capital  to  acquire additional properties and to participate in the development of those properties.  Cash  flows from operations, to the extent available, will be used to fund these expenditures.  We intend to seek additional capital from loans from  current  shareholders and from public and private equity offerings.  Our  ability  to  access  capital  will  depend  on  its  success  in participating  in  properties that are successful in exploring for and producing oil  and gas at profitable prices.  It will also be dependent upon the status of the  capital  markets  at  the  time  such capital is sought.  Should sufficient capital  not be available, the development of our business plan could be delayed and,  accordingly, the implementation of the USD Energy's business strategy would be adversely affected. In such event it would not be likely that investors would  obtain  a  profitable  return  on  their investments or a return of their investments.


Nevada Law and Our Charter May Inhibit a Takeover of Our Company That Stockholders May Consider Favorable


Provisions of Nevada law, such as its business combination statute, may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company. As a result, these provisions could limit the price some investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock.


Our Officers and Directors Have the Ability to Exercise Significant Influence Over Matters Submitted for Stockholder Approval and Their Interests May Differ From Other Stockholders


Our executive officers and directors, whether acting alone or together, may have significant influence in determining the outcome of any corporate transaction or other matter submitted to our stockholders for approval, including mergers, acquisitions, consolidations and the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, and also the power to prevent or cause a change in control. The interests of these executive officers and directors may differ from the interests of the other stockholders.


Our Common Stock Has No Market and No Market May Develop


Prior to this offering, there has been no market for our common stock and there can be no assurance that an active trading market for our common stock will develop.



18



As a result, this could adversely affect our shareholders' ability to sell our common stock in short time periods, or possibly at all. Our common stock has experienced, and is likely to experience in the future, significant price and volume fluctuations which could adversely affect the market price of our common stock without regard to our operating performance. In addition, we believe that factors such as quarterly fluctuations in our financial results and changes in the overall economy or the condition of the financial markets could cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially. Substantial fluctuations in our stock price could significantly reduce the price of our stock.


The Penny Stock Rules will cover our stock, which may make it difficult for a broker to sell investors= shares.  This may make our stock less marketable, and liquid, and result in a lower market price.


 Our common stock is a penny stock, which means that SEC rules require broker dealers who make transactions in the stock to comply with additional suitability assessments and disclosures than they would in stock that were not penny stocks, as follows:


Prior to the transaction, to approve the person's account for transactions in penny stocks by obtaining information from the person regarding his or her financial situation, investment experience and objectives, to reasonably determine based on that information that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the person, and that the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters that the person or his or her independent advisor reasonably may be expected to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks. In addition, the broker or dealer must deliver to the person a written statement setting forth the basis for the determination and advising in highlighted format that it is unlawful for the broker or dealer to effect a transaction in a penny stock unless the broker or dealer has received, prior to the transaction, a written agreement from the person. Further, the broker or dealer must receive a manually signed and dated written agreement from the person in order to effectuate any transactions is a penny stock.


-

Prior to the transaction, the broker or dealer must disclose to the customer the inside bid quotation for the penny stock and, if there is no inside bid quotation or inside offer quotation, he or she must disclose the offer price for the security transacted for a customer on a principal basis unless exempt from doing so under the rules.


-

Prior to the transaction, the broker or dealer must disclose the aggregate amount of compensation received or to be received by the broker or dealer in connection with the transaction, and the aggregate amount of cash compensation received or to be received by any associated person of the broker dealer, other than a person whose function in solely clerical or ministerial.


-

The broker or dealer who has effected sales of penny stock to a customer, unless exempted by the rules, is required to send to the customer a written statement containing the identity and number of shares or units of each such security and the estimated market value of the security. Imposing these reporting and disclosure requirements on a broker or dealer make it unlawful for the broker or dealer to effect transactions in penny stocks on behalf of customers. Brokers or dealers may be discouraged from dealing in penny stocks, due to the additional time, responsibility involved, and, as a result, this may have a deleterious effect on the market for IFDC 's stock.
