1.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Business
description
Blackhawk Capital Group BDC Inc. ("the
Company" or “Blackhawk”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on April 22,
2004.
On
September 20, 2004, the Company filed a Form N-54A, Notification with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) electing to become a business
development company pursuant to Section 54(a) of the Investment Company Act of
1940. As a business development company, Blackhawk is able to acquire
interests in small private businesses, as well as non-dividend paying public
companies.
Blackhawk
attempts to locate and negotiate with eligible portfolio companies for Blackhawk
to invest in, lend funds to, acquire an interest in and/or possibly
manage. Blackhawk offers managerial assistance to eligible portfolio
companies in which it invests.
Basis
of presentation
Interim
financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for
interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on
Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain disclosures
accompanying annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are
omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting
solely of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for the fair
presentation of financial statements for the interim periods have been
included. The results of operations for the current period are not
necessarily indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the
year. The interim unaudited financial statements and notes thereto
should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2009 financial statements
and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K as filed with the
SEC.
The Company had net
decreases in assets resulting from operations for the three and six-month
periods ended June 30, 2010 of $110,539 and $318,747, respectively, and total
net liabilities of $453,243 as of June 30, 2010. Since inception, the
Company’s operations have been principally funded by Regulation E offerings and
The Concorde Group, Inc. (“Concorde”), a corporation controlled by the founder
and an affiliate of the Company. To the extent that current resources
are not sufficient for the Company to pay its obligations as they become
due, Concorde has
agreed to provide sufficient capital to the Company to subsidize operational
expenses to operate through July 1, 2011 to the extent that Concorde has such
capital available. If the Company is unable to raise equity capital
or if Concorde is unable to provide sufficient capital to the Company to fund
its operational expenses, it would have an adverse impact on liquidity and
operations. Such uncertainty raises substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial
statements do not reflect any adjustment that might result from the outcome of
this uncertainty.
8
New
Accounting Pronouncements
In
January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new
accounting guidance which expands disclosure requirements relating to fair value
measurements. The guidance adds requirements for disclosing amounts of and
reasons for significant transfers into and out of Levels 1 and 2 and requires
gross rather than net disclosures about purchases, sales, issuance and
settlements relating to Level 3 measurements. The guidance also provides
clarification that fair value measurement disclosures are required for each
class of assets and liabilities. Disclosures about the valuation techniques and
inputs used to measure fair value for measurements that fall in either Level 2
or Level 3 are also required. The Company adopted the provisions of the guidance
as of March 31, 2010. Disclosures are not required for earlier periods presented
for comparative purposes. The new guidance affects disclosures only and
therefore, the adoption had no impact on the Company’s results of operation or
financial position.

Unrealized
gain and losses resulting from the change in the valuation of investments
are reflected in the condensed statement of
operations.

Realized
gains or losses on investments are recorded on a trade date basis using

|
Use
of estimates in the preparation of financial statements
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
principles accepted in the United States ("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 net revenue and expenses
during each reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. Significant estimates include the valuation of investments
and the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets.
Investments
The Company's investments are carried
at fair value.
Cash
and cash equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid investment instruments purchased with a
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Net
loss per common share
Basic
earnings (loss) per share is computed solely on the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss)
per share reflects all potential dilution of common stock as
applicable.
The following table provides basic and
diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and
2009:

For the
three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, 600,000 shares attributable
to stock options were excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS because the
effect was anti-dilutive.
2.
INCOME TAXES
The
Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the differences
between the financial statement carrying amount and the tax bases of assets and
liabilities. The Company regularly reviews its deferred tax assets
for recoverability and establishes a valuation allowance based upon historical
losses, projected future taxable income and the expected timing of the reversals
of existing temporary differences.
As of
June 30, 2010, net deferred tax assets aggregated approximately $1,102,000 and
consist principally of net operating loss carry forwards and capitalized start
up costs for tax purposes, which were fully reserved based on the likelihood of
realization. The net operating loss will expire by 2029.
The
Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it
is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination
by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the
position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements
from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a
greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate
settlement. As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company
has not recorded any unrecognized tax benefits. The Company's policy
is to recognize interest and penalties, if any, in general and administrative
expense.
The tax
years 2006 through 2009 remain open to examination by the major tax
jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.
3.
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
The
Company carries its investments at fair value. Fair value is an
estimate of the exit price, representing the amount that would be received to
sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants (i.e., the exit price at the measurement
date). Fair value measurements are not adjusted for transaction
costs. A fair value hierarchy consists of three levels that are used
to prioritize inputs to fair value techniques:
|
·
|
Level 1 - inputs to the valuation
methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or
liabilities in active
markets.
|
|
·
|
Level
2 - inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar
assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable
for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for
substantially the full term of the financial
instrument.
|
10
|
·
|
Level 3 - inputs to the valuation
methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value
measurement.
|
Investments
whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and whose
values are therefore classified as Level 1, consist of active listed
equities.
Investments
that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but whose values are
based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or valuations provided by
alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified as
Level 2. These generally include certain U.S. government obligations
and investment-grade corporate bonds.
Investments
whose values are classified as Level 3 have significant unobservable inputs, as
they may trade infrequently or not at all. Investments whose values
are classified as Level 3 generally include private investments. When
observable prices are not available for these securities, the Company uses one
or more valuation techniques (e.g., the market approach or the income approach)
for which sufficient and reliable data is available.
Within
Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the use of the market approach generally
consists of using comparable market transactions, while the use of the income
approach generally consists of the net present value of estimated future cash
flows, adjusted as appropriate for liquidity, credit, market and/or other risk
factors.
The
inputs used by the Company in estimating the value of investments classified as
Level 3 may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar
securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party
transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in
financial ratios or cash flows.
The
values assigned to investments are based on available information and do not
necessarily represent amounts that might be realized if a ready market existed
and such differences could be material. Furthermore, the ultimate
realization of such amounts depends on future events and circumstances and
therefore valuation estimates may differ from the value realized upon
disposition of individual positions.
The carrying values and estimated fair
values of the Company's financial instruments for the periods presented are as

There was no change in the unrealized
gain/(losses) in earnings of the Company's Level 3 assets still held at June 30,
2010.
In the normal course of its business,
the Company’s investments may be subject to the following risks:
Market risk represents the potential
loss that can be caused by increases or decreases in the fair value of
investments.
Interest rate risk is the risk that the
fair value or future cash flows of fixed income or rate sensitive investments
will increase or decrease because of changes in interest
rates. Generally the value of fixed income securities will change
inversely with changes in interest rates. As interest rates rise, the
fair value of fixed income securities tends to decrease. Conversely,
as interest rates fall, the fair value of fixed income securities tends to
increase. This risk is generally greater for long-term securities
than for short-term securities.
Credit risk represents the potential
loss that would occur if counterparties fail to perform pursuant to the terms of
their obligations. In addition to its investments, the Company is
subject to credit risk to the extent a custodian or broker with whom it conducts
business is unable to fulfill contractual obligations.
12
Liquidity risk is the risk that the
Company will not be able to raise funds to fulfill its obligations, including
inability to sell investments quickly or at close to fair value.
4.
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company shares office space and
other administrative functions with Concorde. The Board voted to
start paying Concorde monthly rent of $4,000 beginning January 1,

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENTS
Pursuant to an investment advisory
management agreement dated October 31, 2006, Blackhawk engaged Barak Asset
Management, LLC (“Barak”), a Delaware limited liability company who is an
investment adviser registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940
(“Advisers Act”), to serve as an investment adviser to Blackhawk and manage its
portfolio of investments. The agreement is for a one-year term and
extendable for one year periods. The agreement with Barak was
extended and expires on October 31, 2010. Any one-year extension of
the Barak agreement must be approved by (a) the vote of the Company’s board of
directors, or the vote of a majority of the Company’s outstanding voting
securities, and (b) the vote of the majority of the Company’s independent
directors.
Investment advisory fees are calculated
based upon the average cash value of assets at the end of each quarter including
the value of any withdrawals from the assets made during that quarter ranging
from 0.200% to 0.875% of assets managed. Fees are billed and payable
quarterly in arrears (or a prorated period when applicable).
For the three and six months ended June

STOCK OPTION PLAN; STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
In December 2008, the stockholders
approved the Company's Stock Option Plan ("Stock Option Plan") which provides
for 3,000,000 shares of common stock available for grant, of which 2,500,000 are
reserved for incentive stock options, to the Company's officers, directors and
key employees. A grant must be approved by the stock option committee of
the Company (“Committee”).
The Committee may grant either
incentive stock options (for purposes of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended), or nonqualified stock options. Except as
described below for incentive stock options, the Committee generally has the
discretion to determine the persons to whom stock options will be granted, the
number of shares subject to such options, the exercise prices of such options,
the vesting schedules with respect to such options, the terms of such options,
as well as the period, if any, following a participant's termination of service
during which such option may be exercised, and the circumstances in which all or
a portion of an option may become immediately exercisable or be
forfeited.
14
All
rights to exercise options shall terminate three (3) months after any optionee
ceases to be an officer, director or a key employee of the Company except as
otherwise provided by the Committee in an option agreement, and no options will
vest after an optionee's termination date. If any officer or key employee
is terminated by the Company for cause, his or her options shall be forfeited
immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, where an optionee's
service as a director, officer or key employee of the Company terminates as a
result of the optionee's death or his total and permanent disability, the
optionee or the executors or administrators or distributees of the estate, as
the case may be, shall have the right, from time to time within one year after
the optionee's total and permanent disability or death and prior to the
expiration of the term of the option, to exercise any portion of the option not
previously exercised, in whole or in part, as provided in the respective option
agreement.
In the
discretion of the Committee the price due upon exercise of an option may be paid
in cash or in shares of our common stock valued at their then current fair
market value, or a combination of both. Shares delivered in payment of such
price may be shares acquired by prior exercises of options or otherwise, in the
Committee's discretion. Also in the discretion of the Committee, a
participant may exercise an option as to only a part of the shares covered
thereby and then, in an essentially simultaneous transaction, use the shares so
acquired in payment of the exercise price for additional option
shares.
Holders
of options shall have no rights as shareholders unless and until such options
are exercised and shares are delivered to such persons in accordance with the
Stock Option Plan.
Incentive
stock options may be granted only to persons who are employees (including
directors who are also employees but excluding non-employee directors).
Generally, incentive stock options must be granted within ten years of the date
the Stock Option Plan is adopted, and the term of any incentive stock option may
not exceed ten years. Furthermore, the aggregate fair market value of
shares of Common Stock with respect to which any incentive stock options are
exercisable for the first time by a participant during any calendar year may not
exceed $100,000. Furthermore, the exercise price of incentive stock
options must be at least 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock at
the time the incentive stock option is granted, except in the case of incentive
stock options granted to any individual who owns more than 10% of the total
combined voting power of all classes of our stock, in which case the exercise
price of incentive stock options must be at least 110% of the fair market value
of the Common Stock at the time of grant.
The Company accounts for stock-based
payments by regarding stock-based compensation expense in the statement of
operations over the vesting period based on the fair value of the award at the
grant date.
The following table summarizes activity
under the Company's stock option plans for the six months ended June 30,
2010:

The aggregate intrinsic value is
calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying awards
and the closing price of the Company's common stock. As of June 30, 2010,
there were no options outstanding to purchase shares with an exercise price
below the quoted price of the Company's common stock.
There were no stock options granted
during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. The weighted average
fair value at date of grant for options granted during the three and six months
ended June 30, 2009 was $0.22. The Company recorded $132,000 of compensation expense
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009. Estimated unrecognized
stock-based compensation relating to stock options as of June 30, 2010 is
$0.

OTHER
Employment
Agreement. On January 30, 2009, the Company entered into an
Employment Agreement with Craig A. Zabala ("Zabala"), founder, Chairman,
President and Chief Executive Officer, and acting Chief Financial Officer and
Chief Compliance Officer, of the Company.
The term of the Employment Agreement is
three (3) years (“Employment Period”). The Employment Period will be
automatically renewed for one (1) additional year each year unless ninety (90)
calendar days prior to the end of the term, the Company advises Zabala in
writing that it does not wish to extend the Employment Period for an additional
year.
Pursuant to the Employment Agreement,
Zabala serves as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, provided
that if the Company hires and/or enters into an employment agreement with any
executive who serves as President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company,
Zabala shall resign his position as President, but would keep his position as
Chief Executive Officer. Zabala also agrees to serve as acting Chief
Financial Officer and acting Chief Compliance Officer until the Company retains
employees for such positions. The Employment Agreement also permits Zabala
to perform work for Concorde and another affiliate, provided that such work does
not compete with the business and business opportunities of the
Company.
Zabala receives a base annual salary of
$60,000 under the Employment Agreement. Each year, the Board of Directors
may increase the base salary in its discretion. In the event that the
Company sold a minimum of $3,000,000 of shares of its common stock in its 2009
private placement offering ("Offering") under Rule 506 under Regulation D under
the Securities Act, the Company would have had to increase Zabala's annual base
salary to $250,000 and pay him a $50,000 bonus (which bonus could have been
increased proportionately if the Company raised more than $3,000,000 in the
Offering but the amount of the bonus would not have been greater than
$100,000). If the minimum amount is not raised in the Offering, Zabala's
base salary remains at $60,000. The Offering was terminated on December
14, 2009 with no shares being sold and consequently Dr. Zabala was not paid any
bonus and did not receive a salary increase.
The Employment Agreement terminates
upon the earliest to occur of (i) Zabala's death or disability; (ii) cause or
non-cause termination of Zabala by the Company; (iii) a termination by Zabala
for "good reason" or Zabala resigns from the Company without "good reason" or
(iv) Zabala is replaced as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company
(except if another executive is hired as President and Chief Operating
Officer).
If Zabala is terminated without cause,
or if he resigns for "good reason," he would receive accrued salary and bonuses,
if any, to the end of the employment term. In addition, if Zabala is
terminated without cause or if he resigns for "good reason," the Company must
pay to Concorde rental payments of $4,000 per month from April 2004 until the
month Zabala is terminated without cause or resigns for "good reason." If
he is terminated for cause, he is not entitled to any rights or compensation
under the Employment Agreement, provided that the Company must make the $4,000
monthly rental payment to its affiliate Concorde. If Zabala is terminated
in the event of death or disability, or he resigns without "good reason," he
shall only be entitled to receive accrued and unpaid base salary and benefits
through the date of his employment termination. If the Company hires a
replacement for Zabala who does not serve as President and Chief Operating
Officer, but serves as Chief Executive Officer, Zabala would be entitled to the
benefits above for a non-cause termination.
16
Stock Option
Grant. Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Zabala was granted
600,000 options to purchase shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.40
per share (above the market value of $0.22 on date of grant) which expires on
February 1, 2019. The options were fully vested upon
issuance.
Macromarkets
Investment. On January 12, 2009, Blackhawk entered into a Voting
Capital Interests Purchase Agreement ("Purchase Agreement") with MacroMarkets
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("MacroMarkets"). Pursuant to
the Purchase Agreement, Blackhawk purchased a five percent (5%) membership
interest in MacroMarkets for $250,000 and Craig A. Zabala, Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer of Blackhawk, was appointed a non-voting board member of
MacroMarkets. The Purchase Agreement contains standard representations,
warranties and indemnification provisions. The transaction closed on
January 12, 2009. Blackhawk used funds from working capital to make the
equity investment.
Item
2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.
The
following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of
operations should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements
and the notes thereto.
The statements contained in this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts may contain
forward-looking statements that involve a number of known and unknown risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
discussed or anticipated by management. Potential risks and uncertainties
include, among other factors, general business conditions, government
regulations, competitive market conditions, success of Blackhawk's business
strategy, and other risks and uncertainties currently unknown to
management.
Overview
Blackhawk
is a business development company registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940 formed to engage in the business of investing primarily in small to
mid-sized companies. The Company also intends to provide managerial
assistance to developing companies. To date, the Company has made one
investment in a portfolio company, MacroMarkets.
Accounting
policies
Basis
of presentation
Interim financial statements of the
Company are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and
pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Regulation
S-X. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual consolidated
financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP are omitted. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring
accruals, considered necessary for the fair presentation of financial statements
for the interim periods have been included. The results of operations for
the current period are not necessarily indicative of results that ultimately may
be achieved for the year. The interim unaudited financial statements and
notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2009 audited
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K as
filed with the SEC.
Use
of estimates in the preparation of financial statements
The preparation of financial statements
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles accepted in the
United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of actual and contingent assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of income or loss and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. Significant estimates include the valuation of investments
and the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets.
17
We recognize deferred tax assets and
liabilities based on the differences between the financial statement carrying
amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. We regularly
review our deferred tax assets for recoverability and establish a valuation
allowance based upon historical losses, projected future taxable income and the
expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary
differences. As of June 30, 2010, net deferred tax assets aggregated
approximately $1,102,000, and consist principally of net operating loss carry
forwards and capitalized start up costs which, were fully reserved based on the
likelihood of realization. The net operating loss will expire by
2029.
The Company's investments are carried
at fair value. See Note 3 to our Condensed Financial Statements for
additional information with respect to investments.
Portfolio
and investment activity
Blackhawk
did not make any portfolio investments in 2008 or in prior
years. However, on January 12, 2009, Blackhawk entered into a Voting
Capital Interests Purchase Agreement ("Purchase Agreement") with MacroMarkets
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("MacroMarkets"). Pursuant
to the Purchase Agreement, Blackhawk purchased a five percent (5%) membership
interest in MacroMarkets for $250,000 and Craig A. Zabala, Chairman and
President of Blackhawk, was appointed a non-voting board member of
MacroMarkets. The Purchase Agreement contains standard
representations, warranties and indemnification provisions. The
transaction closed on January 12, 2009. Blackhawk used funds from working
capital to make the equity investment.
Results
of operations
Investment
income
For the
three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, we had $0 and $2,265 respectively, of
interest income.
For the
six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, we had $192 and $6,885, respectively,
of interest income.
General
and administrative expenses
For the
three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, general and administrative expenses
were $110,539 and $210,165, respectively. The decrease was due to a reduction in
professional fees and compensation.
For the
six months ended June 30, 2010 and 1009, general and administrative expenses
were $320,166 and $602,406 respectively. The decrease was due to a reduction in
professional fees and compensation.
Liquidity
and capital resources
From inception (April 22, 2004) through
June 30, 2010, Blackhawk funded its cash operating requirements through the sale
of its common stock and loans from an affiliated company, Concorde.
The net
cash proceeds from the Regulation E offerings since inception have been
$1,711,731 through June 30, 2010.
Blackhawk had a net decrease in assets
resulting from operations of $318,747 for the six months ended June 30,
2010, and had total net liabilities of $453,243 at June 30, 2010 and to date has
made one investment in an eligible portfolio company, MacroMarkets,
LLC. Blackhawk intends to raise capital and access the equity markets
to raise cash to fund investments. The ability of Blackhawk to raise
capital in this current market environment will be very
difficult. Small business development companies similar to Blackhawk
are encountering trying market conditions in attempts to raise
capital. There can be no assurance that Blackhawk will be able to
raise capital. Since inception, Blackhawk's operations have been
principally funded by three Regulation E offerings and by loans from
Concorde. To the extent that current resources are not sufficient for
the Company to pay its obligations as they become due, Concorde has agreed to
provide sufficient capital to the Company to subsidize operational expenses to
operate through July 1, 2011 to the extent that Concorde has such capital
available. Concorde currently does not have the capital to provide to
Blackhawk such financial support. If the Company is unable to raise
capital or if Concorde is unable to provide sufficient capital to the Company to
fund its operational expenses, it would have an adverse impact on liquidity and
operations. Such uncertainty raises substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial
statements do not reflect any adjustment that might result from the outcome of
this uncertainty.

Item
3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
We are subject to financial market
risks, including changes in the valuation of investments.
Interest
rate risk
This
Section is not applicable. Blackhawk does not have any
interest-bearing liabilities at this time.
Portfolio
valuation
Blackhawk
intends to use the U.S. Private Equity Valuation Guidelines ("Guidelines") to
provide its managers with a framework for valuing investments in portfolio
companies at fair value and to provide greater consistency within the private
equity industry with regard to valuation. These Guidelines are
intended to assist managers in their estimation of fair value and are intended
to be consistent with generally accepted accounting
principles. Blackhawk has made one investment to date in
MacroMarkets.
Item
4T. Controls and Procedures.
Management Report on
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. The management of the
Company is responsible for establishing and
maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The
Company's internal control system is a process
designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company's management and board of directors
regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial
statements.
Our internal control over financial
reporting includes policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of
records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions
and dispositions of assets; provide reasonable assurances that transactions are
recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts
and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of
management and the directors of the Company; and provide reasonable assurance
regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or
disposition of the
Company's assets that could
have a material effect on our consolidated financial
statements.
All internal control systems, no matter
how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those
systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with
respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to
the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or
that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may
deteriorate.
Management assessed the effectiveness of
the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2010. In making this assessment,
management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated
framework. Based
upon this evaluation, management (consisting of one individual, Dr. Craig A.
Zabala, who serves as the Company’s principal executive officer and acting
principal financial officer) concluded that the Company's disclosure controls
and procedures were not effective to ensure that material information is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported by management of the Company on a
timely basis in order to comply with the Company's disclosure obligations under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder. This conclusion regarding the Company's
disclosure controls and procedures is based solely on management's conclusion
that the Company's internal control over financial reporting are ineffective as
identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2009 and continues to be ineffective as of June 30, 2010. In
connection with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2009, our management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's
internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on
management's identification of the material weaknesses as follows: (1) Blackhawk has a material
weakness in its internal controls due to a lack of segregation of duties, and
(2) Blackhawk lacks the resources to hire additional personnel to perform this
function until it raises additional capital.
Changes in Internal
Controls over Financial
Reporting. During the quarter ended
June 30, 2010, there have been no significant changes in our internal controls
or in other factors that could significantly affect those controls subsequent to
our evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to significant
deficiencies and material weaknesses.
