Overview
 
Swordfish Financial, Inc., (f/k/a Nature Vision, Inc. and Photo Control Corporation) (the “Company” or “we”) was incorporated as a Minnesota corporation in 1959.  On August 31, 2004, the Company changed its name to Nature Vision, Inc. in connection with a merger transaction with Nature Vision Operating Inc. (f/k/a Nature Vision, Inc.) a Minnesota corporation that was incorporated in 1998. As a part of the merger, Nature Vision Operating Inc. became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Upon the merger with Swordfish Financial, Inc., the Texas corporation on August 17, 2009, the shareholders of Nature Vision, Inc., owning a majority of the outstanding common stock, voted to change its name to Swordfish Financial, Inc.  The shares of the Company trade on the Pinksheets OTC Market under the symbol, “SWRF.”

Swordfish Financial will operate as a diversified financial asset recovery company for high net worth individuals and companies with orphaned or dormant assets held in financial institutions around the world.  Swordfish Financial will recognize its share of the recovered assets on its financial statements upon the successful completion of each recovery project.  Swordfish Financial plans to take the financial capital resources recovered and retire its debits and invest in companies that have the mission of being eco-friendly and providing a better standard of living for our world’s people.
 
Recent Developments

The consolidated financial statements were prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern and further states that our recurring losses from operations, accumulated deficit and inability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our obligations and sustain our operations raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our plans concerning these matters are discussed in Note 1 to the accompanying audited consolidated financial statements.
 
In August of 2009 a stock acquisition/reverse merger agreement was entered into by Nature Vision, Inc. (nka Swordfish Financial, Inc.) (the “Company”) and Swordfish Financial, Inc., the Texas corporation. The reverse merger was closed on August 14, 2009. Pursuant to the terms of the reverse merger, the equity holders of Swordfish Financial, Inc., the Texas corporation, acquired 10,987,417 shares of common stock constituting 80% of voting control of the Company in return for a $3,500,000 note, bearing interest at the rate of 5% per annum.  The financial statements have been prepared to include the results of operations for the Company for the year ended December 31, 2009.
 
As a result of the reverse merger being accounted for as a reverse merger acquisition, Nature Vision’s assets and liabilities assets and liabilities as of  the closing date of the reverse merger, have been incorporated into Swordfish Financial, Inc.’s balance sheet based on the fair values of the net assets acquired, which equaled the consideration paid for the acquisition.  FASB ASC 805-10 requires an allocation of the acquisition consideration to the individual assets and liabilities. Further, the Company’s operating results (post-Merger) include Swordfish Financial, Inc., a Texas corporation, operating results prior to the date of the closing and the results of the combined entity following the closing of the Merger. Swordfish Financial, Inc., a Texas corporation, was considered the acquiring entity for accounting purposes.

The Company did not meet the minimum net worth covenants of a line of credit with M&I Business Credit LLC (M&I Bank) as of June 30, 2009, which put the Company in default on the line of credit.  On August 14, 2009, simultaneously with the signing of the Swordfish Financial, Inc., a Texas corporation, stock purchase/merger agreement, M&I Business Credit LLC, was owed

approximately $1,800,000 by the Company, foreclosed on the line of credit and forced the Company to enter into a Voluntary Surrender Agreement.  The Voluntary Surrender Agreement gave M&I Business Credit LLC total possession of the Company’s Premises, operations and all of the Company’s Collateral, which consisted of all of the Company’s assets.  M&I Business Credit LLC liquidated basically all of the Company’s assets to recover the line of credit debt.

After M&I Business Credit LLC’s liquidation of virtually all of the Company’s assets at significant discounts to book value, the Company was left with no assets or product lines to market and continue the Nature Vision outdoor recreations products operations.   As stated above, the Company will now operate as an asset recovery company and use the financial resources recovered to invest in other businesses domestically and internationally and also retire the Company’s debts.

Despite cost reduction initiatives, the Company will be unable to pay its obligations in the normal course of business or service its debt in a timely manner throughout 2010 without completing a recovery project, raising additional debt or equity capital.  There can be no assurance that the Company will complete a recovery project, raise additional debt or equity capital.

The Company is currently evaluating strategic alternatives that include the following: (i) raising of capital and (ii) debt financing.  This process is ongoing and can be lengthy and has inherent costs.  There can be no assurance that the exploration of strategic alternatives will result in any specific action to alleviate the Company’s twelve month working capital needs or result in any other transaction.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company implemented a restructuring plan that discontinued the hunting and fishing operations and closed the facilities in Brainerd, Minnesota to eliminate all related operating expenses. 

In August 2009, the Company borrowed $200,000 from a former Board of Directors member in order to meet its short-term cash flow requirements. This demand promissory note was secured by a second lien on all of the Company’s assets and has an interest rate of 15%.

In August 2010, the Company borrowed $50,000 from a former Board of Directors member in order to meet its short-term cash flow requirements. This demand promissory note was secured by a second lien on all of the Company’s assets and has an interest rate of 15%.

In 2010, the Company raised $150,820 from the sale of common stock in private placements and $71,100 from advances from shareholders.
 
Plan of Operations

Swordfish Financial had no revenues from its financial asset recovery operations in 2010.  It operates as a diversified financial asset recovery company for high net worth individuals and companies with orphaned or dormant assets held in financial institutions around the world.  It will recognize its share of the recovered assets on its financial statements upon the successful completion of each recovery project.  Swordfish Financial plans to take the financial capital resources recovered, retire all of its debits and invest in companies that have the mission of being eco-friendly and providing a better standard of living for our world’s people.

The Company has a research and development consulting agreement with an outside entity that exist from the period prior to the merger acquisition agreement.  The agreement has two components requiring it to pay monthly installments of $14,583 for research and development services and $8,333 for product support services.  At December 31, 2010 the amount remaining to be paid on the agreement was $450,000.  The Company has recognized $274,992 of expense relating to this agreement for the year ended December 31, 2010, which is included in general and administrative expense.

The Company has a research and development consulting agreement with an outside entity that exists from the period prior to the merger acquisition agreement.  The agreement has two components requiring it to pay monthly installments of $5,000 for research and development services and $4,166 for product support services.  At December 31, 2009 the amount remaining to be paid on the agreement was $170,000.  The Company has recognized $109,992 of expense relating to this agreement for the year ended December 31, 2010, which is included in general and administrative expense.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  We incurred net losses of $3,121,278 and $1,946,293 in fiscal years 2010 and 2009, respectively, and had an accumulated deficit of $8,006,481 as of December 31, 2010.  We have managed our liquidity during the fourth quarter of 2010 and the first quarter of 2011 through the sales of common stock and advance from shareholders.
 
Despite the cost reduction initiatives, the Company will be unable to pay its obligations in the normal course of business or service its debt in a timely manner throughout 2011 without being successful on an asset recovery project, raising additional debt and/or equity capital.

            The Company is currently evaluating strategic alternatives that include the following: (i) raising of capital and (ii) securing capital through the issuance of debt.  This process is ongoing and can be lengthy and has inherent costs.  There can be no assurance that the exploration of strategic alternatives will result in any specific action to alleviate the Company’s twelve month working capital needs or result in any other transaction.
 
 The Company believes that the effect of inflation has not been material during the year ended December 31, 2010.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements
 
As of December 31, 2010, there were no off-balance sheet arrangements, unconsolidated subsidiaries and commitments or guaranties of other parties.
 
Critical Accounting Policies

 The accompanying consolidated financial statements are based on the selection and application of United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), which require estimates and assumptions about future events that may affect the amounts reported in these financial statements and the accompanying notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and any such differences may be material to the financial statements. We believe that the following accounting policies may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity in their application and represent the critical accounting policies used in the preparation of our financial statements. If different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, the results could be materially different from reported results.
 
Statement of Financial Accounting

We adopted ASC Topic 105 – “Statement of Financial Accounting,” formerly FASB 168, which were changes issued by Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") to the authoritative hierarchy of generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP").  These changes established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification™  ("Codification") as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by non-governmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP.  Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants.  The FASB will no longer issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions, or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts; instead the FASB will issue Accounting Standard Updates.  Accounting Standards Updates will not be authoritative in their own right as they will only serve to update the Codification.  These changes and the Codification itself do not change GAAP.  Other than the manner in which new accounting guidance is referenced, the adoption of these changes had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Subsequent Events

We adopt changes issued by ASC Topic 855 – “Subsequent Events,” formerly FASB 165, which establishes general standards for accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. The pronouncement requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date, whether that date represents the date the financial statements were issued or were available to be issued.     In conjunction with the preparation of these financial statements, an evaluation of subsequent events was performed through October31, 2010, which is the date the financial statements were issued.

We continue to evaluate the impact of ASC Topic 805 – “Business Combinations,” formerly SFAS No. 141 (R), which we adopted at the beginning of the 2009 fiscal year. This ASC provides guidance on measuring the fair value of particular identifiable assets and noncontrolling interest.  The Company reported the acquisition merger with Nature Vision, Inc. in accordance with ASC 805 due to the changes in control of ownership, the board of directors and officers of the company.

 Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenues will be generated from successful recovery projects.  Each project will have its own terms as to the percentage of the recovery that the Company will retain as revenue.  The recovery revenues will be recognized by the Company when it takes possession of the revenues from each individual project, and be recognized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as outlined in the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 “Revenue Recognition” which requires that four basic criteria be met before revenue can be recognized: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) the price is fixed or determinable; (iii) reasonably assured it is collectible; and (iv) product delivery has occurred.   The Company’s policy is to present tax imposed on revenue producing transactions on a gross basis.
 
Allowance for doubtful accounts

Management records a reserve on accounts receivable which is an estimate of the amount of accounts receivable that are uncollectible. The reserve is based on a combination of specific customer knowledge, general economic conditions and historical trends. Management believes the results could be materially different if economic conditions change for our customers.  The Company has no allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2009 as the receivable is equal to the collections in 2010 on 2009 receivables  resulting from Nature Vision sales and turned back to the Company by M&I Business Credit LLC after is finished its foreclosure process.

Impairment of long lived assets

 Considerable management judgment is necessary in estimating future cash flows and other factors affecting the valuation of long-lived assets, including intangible assets, including the operating and macroeconomic factors that may affect them. The Company uses historical financial information, internal plans and projections and industry information in making such estimates.   The Company had no long lived assets at December 31, 2009 to evaluate against expected future cash flows.    The Nature Vision long-lived assets were written down to $-0- at December 31, 2009 due to the August 14, 2009 foreclosure by M&I Business Credit LLC on the Company’s line of credit loan and the Company being forced to sign a Voluntary Surrender Agreement.  The Voluntary Surrender Agreement gave M&I Business Credit LLC total possession of the Company’s Premises, operations and all of the Company’s Collateral, which consisted of all of the Company’s assets.  M&I Business Credit LLC liquidated basically all of the Company’s assets to recover the line of credit debt.  Swordfish Financial was left with no assets or product lines to market and continue the Nature Vision outdoor recreations products operations.

Income taxes

Significant management judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against net deferred tax assets. We record a current provision for income taxes based on amounts payable or refundable. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. 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. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. The overall change in deferred tax assets and liabilities for the period measures the deferred tax expense or benefit for the period. We recognize a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that deferred assets are not recoverable.   During fiscal 2010 and 2009, the Company established its valuation allowance for the entire amount of the deferred tax assets.  If actual taxable income by jurisdiction and the period over which our deferred tax assets are recoverable are materially different than our estimate, the change could be material to our consolidated financial statements.

Item 9A.   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The  Company's  management  evaluated,  with  the  participation  of  its  Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), the effectiveness of the design/operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and  15d-15(e)  under the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act")) as of December 31, 2010.

Disclosure  controls  and  procedures  refer to  controls  and other  procedures designed to ensure that  information  required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded,  processed,  summarized  and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that  such  information  is  accumulated  and  communicated  to our  management, including  our  chief  executive  officer  and  chief  financial   officer,   as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding  required  disclosure.  In designing and  evaluating  our disclosure  controls and  procedures,  management recognizes  that any controls and  procedures,  no matter how well  designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives,  and  management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating and  implementing possible controls and procedures.

Management conducted its evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures under the supervision of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer.  Based on that evaluation, management concluded that, considering the existence of material weaknesses identified, our internal control over financial reporting disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2010.

Material Weaknesses Identified

We identified the following  deficiencies  which together  constitute a material weakness  in our  assessment  of the  effectiveness  of  internal  control  over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010:
 
o    The  Company  has  inadequate  segregation  of duties  within its cash disbursement control design.
 
o    During the year ended December 31, 2010, the company internally performed all aspects of our financial reporting process, including, but not limited to the underlying accounting records and record journal entries and responsibility for the preparation of the financial statement due to the fact these duties were performed often times by the same people, a lack of review was created over the financial reporting process that might result in a failure to detect errors in spreadsheets, calculations, or assumptions used to compile the financial statement and related disclosures as filed with the SEC.  These control deficiencies could result in a material misstatement to our interim or annual financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.
 
o   The Company does not have a sufficient number of independent directors for our  board  and  audit  committee.  We currently have no independent director on our board, which is comprised of two directors, and we do not have a functioning audit committee. As a publicly-traded company, we should strive to have a majority of our board of directors be independent.

 

 
 
11

 

The Company is continuing the process of remediating its control deficiencies.  However, the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting that has been identified will not be remediated until numerous  internal controls are implemented  and  operate for a period of time,  are tested,  and the Company is able to conclude that such  internal  controls are  operating  effectively.  The Company cannot provide assurance that these procedures will be successful in identifying material errors that may exist in the financial statements.  The Company cannot make  assurances  that it will not identify  additional  material weaknesses  in its  internal  control  over  financial  reporting in the future.  Management plans, as capital becomes available to the Company, to increase the accounting and financial reporting staff and provide future investments in the continuing education and public company accounting training of our accounting  and  financial  professionals.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our  management is also required to assess and report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley  Act of 2002 ("Section 404").  Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010.  In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO)
in Internal  Control -  Integrated  Framework.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

Other than the  matters  discussed  above,  during  the  period  covered by this report,  there were no significant  changes in the Company's  internal  controls over financial  reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company's internal controls over financial reporting.

It should be noted  that any  system of  controls,  however  well  designed  and operated,  can provide only  reasonable,  and not absolute,  assurance  that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events.  Because of these and other inherent limitations of control system, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

Auditor Attestation

This  annual  report  does not include an  attestation  report of the  company's registered  public  accounting  firm regarding  internal  control over financial reporting.  Management's  report was not subject to attestation by the company's registered  public  accounting  firm  pursuant  to rules of the  Securities  and Exchange Commission that permit the company to provide only management's report.

Current Officer and Director Loans to Company

On August 14, 2009, the Company, (formerly Nature Vision, Inc.), closed a Stock Purchase/Merger Agreement with Swordfish Financial, Inc., a Texas corporation, pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of 10,987,417 shares of its common stock in exchange for a $3,500,000 promissory note, payable in two installments of $1,750,000 each with the first installment being forty-five (45) days from the date of the note and the second installment being one-hundred twenty (120) days from the date of the note.  The note bears interest at the rate of 5% per annum.  As the date of this filing, no payments have been made on the promissory note and accrued interest.  The Company expects to be paid in full by shareholders of the Texas corporation.

The Company’s Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer is now the beneficial owner of 7,700,000 shares of the 10,987,417 shares of the Company's common stock distributed in the stock purchase/merger transaction.

Former Officer and Director Loans to Company

In October 2008, the Company borrowed $700,000 from Jeffrey P. Zernov, its former Chief Executive Officer (Mr. Zernov resigned on August 17, 2009), in order to meet its short-term cash flow requirements. This promissory note was unsecured and had an interest rate of 15%. The entire principal and accrued interest was payable on January 1, 2009, of which the Company paid $250,000 in January 2009 (the maturity date was extended to August 17, 2010 by agreement).  The Company paid no interest and accrued $37,500 of interest expense on this loan during the year ended December 31, 2010.  

In July 2008, the Company amended the terms and replaced the original $1,000,000 demand note issued to Richard P. Kiphart, a member of its Board of Directors (Mr. Kiphart resigned on August 17, 2009), in October 2007.  The amended $1,000,000 demand note is held by the same former member of the Company’s Board of Directors.  The demand promissory note is unsecured and bears an interest rate of 15% (the maturity date was extended to August 17, 2010 by agreement).  Interest is payable on the first day of each month.  The entire principal and interest is payable upon demand anytime after August 17, 2010.    The Company paid no interest and accrued $150,000 of interest on this note during the year ended December 31, 2010.

On August 17, 2009, the Company borrowed $200,000 from a former Board of Directors in order to meet its short-term cash flow requirement. This demand promissory note is secured by a second lien on the Company’s assets and has an interest rate of 15%  The entire principal and accrued interest is payable upon demand anytime after February 17, 2010.  As part of the terms of the $50,000 note described below, the noteholder, at any time prior to the maturity of the note, has the option to convert the note principal and accrued interest into the Company’s common stock at $.10 per share.
 
On August 18, 2010, the Company borrowed $50,000 from a former Board of Directors in order to meet its short-term cash flow requirement. This demand promissory note is secured by a second lien on the Company’s assets and has an interest rate of 15%  The entire principal and accrued interest is payable upon demand 180 days from the date of the note.  At any time prior to the maturity of the note, the noteholder has the option to convert the note principal and accrued interest into the Company’s common stock at $.10 per share.

There are no other related party transactions that are required to be disclosed pursuant to Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Director Independence

We do not have an audit, compensation or nominating committee, but our entire board of directors acts in such capacities.  Although our directors are not considered as “independent directors” pursuant to the provisions of Item 407(a) of Regulation S-K, we believe that our members of our board of directors are capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting.  The board of directors of our company does not believe that it is necessary to have an audit committee because we believe that the functions of an audit committee can be adequately performed by the board of directors.  In addition, we believe that retaining an independent director who would qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted in our circumstances given the early stages of our development.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Swordfish Financial, Inc.:


 I have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Swordfish Financial, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2010.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit.

I conducted my audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatements.  I was not engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  My audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, I express no such opinion.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion.

In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Swordfish Financial, Inc.  as of  December  31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and cash flows for each of  the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the company has suffered recurring losses from operations and negative cash flows from operations the past three years.  These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

SWORDFISH FINACIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(Formerly Nature Vision, Inc.)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2010


NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
  
           REFERENCE TO THE COMPANY
 
References to “we”, “us”, “our”, “Swordfish” or the “Company” in these notes to the consolidated financial statements refer to Swordfish Financial, Inc., a Minnesota corporation, and its subsidiaries. On August 17, 2009, Nature Vision, Inc. changed its name to Swordfish Financial, Inc.  As discussed below, the financial statements prior to August 14, 2009 are those of Swordfish Financial, Inc., a Texas corporation.
 
           REVERSE MERGER ACQUISITION ACCOUNTING
 
Swordfish Financial, Inc., the Texas corporation, acquired 80% of the outstanding common stock of Nature Vision, Inc. pursuant to a stock acquisition/merger agreement on August 14, 2009.  Under the purchase method of accounting in a business combination effected through an exchange of equity interests, the entity that issues the equity interests is generally the acquiring entity. In some business combinations (commonly referred to as reverse acquisitions), however, the acquired entity issues the equity interests. FASB ASC 805-10, “Business Combinations” requires consideration of the facts and circumstances surrounding a business combination that generally involve the relative ownership and control of the entity by each of the parties subsequent to the merger. Based on a review of these factors, the August stock acquisition agreement with Swordfish Financial, Inc. , the Texas corporation (“the Merger”) was accounted for as a reverse acquisition (i.e. Nature Vision, Inc. was considered as the acquired company and Swordfish Financial, Inc., the Texas Company was considered as the acquiring company).  As a result, Nature Vision, Inc. assets and liabilities as of August 14, 2009, the date of the Merger closing, have been incorporated into Swordfish’s balance sheet based on the fair values of the net assets acquired, which equaled the consideration paid for the acquisition. FASB ASC 805-10 also requires an allocation of the acquisition consideration to individual assets and liabilities including tangible assets, and financial assets. Further, the Company’s operating results (post Merger) include Swordfish Financial, Inc., the Texas corporation’s operating results prior to the date of closing and the results of the combined entity following the closing of the Merger. Swordfish Financial, Inc., a Texas corporation was considered the acquiring entity for accounting purposes.
 
On August 14, 2009, Nature Vision, Inc. entered into a Stock Acquisition/Reverse Merger Agreement with Swordfish Financial, Inc., a Texas corporation,  for 10,987,417 shares (representing approximately 80% of the outstanding shares) of its common stock in exchange for a $3,500,000 promissory note.  As of the date of this filing, no payments have been made on the note and accrued interest.  The Company expects payment of the note and accrued interest to be made by the shareholders of the Texas corporation.  Nature Vision’s board of directors resigned in favor of replacements, nominated by Swordfish, a Texas corporation, who also became the officers of the Company.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS
 
Swordfish Financial, Inc., (f/k/a Nature Vision, Inc. and Photo Control Corporation) (the “Company” or “we”) as Nature Vision, Inc. designed, manufactured and marketed outdoor recreation products primarily for the sport fishing and hunting markets.

The Company did not meet the minimum net worth covenants of a line of credit with M&I Business Credit LLC (M&I Bank) as of June 30, 2009, which put the Company in default on the line of credit.  On August 14, 2009, simultaneously with the signing of the Swordfish Financial, Inc., the Texas corporation stock purchase/merger agreement, M&I Business Credit LLC, who was owed approximately $1,800,000 by the Company, foreclosed on the line of credit and forced the Company to enter into a Voluntary Surrender Agreement.  The Voluntary Surrender Agreement gave M&I Business Credit LLC total possession of the Company’s Premises, its operations and all of the Company’s Collateral, which consisted of all of Nature Vision’s assets.  M&I Business Credit LLC liquidated basically all of the Nature Vision assets to recover the line of credit debt.

Based on the limited assets, product lines and resources remaining after the M&I Business Credit LLC liquidation, the Company has decided that there is not enough remaining of the Nature Vision operations to continue as an outdoor recreations products company and will concentrate on the business on being an asset recovery company and using the financial resources recovered to retire the Company’s debts and invest in other businesses domestically and internationally.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

 
F - 6

 

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

As more fully described in Note 14, “Discontinued Operations,” the Company determined to discontinue the Nature Vision operations
as the result of the August 14, 2009 M&I Business Credit LLC foreclosure on the Company’s Line of Credit and forcing it to enter into a Voluntary Surrender Agreement and tender to M&I Business Credit LLC total possession of the Company’s premises, operations and all of the Company’s assets to collect approximately $1,800,000 owed by the Company at that time.  After M&I Business Credit LLC liquidated virtually all of the Company’s assets at significant discounts to book value, the Company was left with no assets or product lines to market and continue the Nature Vision outdoor recreations products operations.

              FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
The carrying amounts for all financial instruments approximate fair value. The carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The fair value of long-term debt, contract payable and deferred liabilities - retirement benefits approximates the carrying amounts based upon the Company’s expected borrowing rate for debt with similar remaining maturities and comparable risk.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
 
The Company maintains its cash balances in various area banks. Cash balances are insured up to $250,000 per bank by the FDIC. The balances, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company defines cash and cash equivalents as highly liquid, short-term investments with a maturity at the date of acquisition of three months or less.
 
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
 
The Company reviews customers' credit history before extending unsecured credit and establishes an allowance for uncollectible accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers and other information. Accounts receivable are due based on agreed upon customer terms. Accounts receivable are considered past due once they are over the due date of these terms. The Company does not accrue interest on past due accounts receivable. If accounts receivable, in excess of the provided allowance, are determined uncollectible, they are charged to expense in the year that determination is made. Accounts receivable are written off after all collection efforts have failed. Accounts receivable have not been reduced by an allowance for uncollectible accounts at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

            NOTE RECEIVABLE -RELATED PARTY

On August 14, 2009, the Company closed a Stock Purchase/Merger Agreement with Swordfish Financial, Inc., the Texas corporation  (which was controlled by the Company’s Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer and majority shareholder)  pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of 10,987,417 shares of its common stock in exchange for a $3,500,000 promissory note, payable in two installments of $1,750,000 each with the first installment being forty-five (45) days from the date of the note and the second installment being one-hundred twenty (120) days from the date of the note. The Company expects payment of the note and accrued interest to be made by the shareholders of the Texas corporation.  The note bears interest at the rate of 5% per annum the note and the related accrued interest at December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $240,625 and $65,625, respectively.  As of the date of this filing, no payments have been made on the note and accrued interest.  The Company expects payment of the note and accrued interest from the Shareholders of the Texas corporation.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
 
We assess the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable, in accordance with FASB ASC Topic "Property, Plant and Equipment."  An asset or asset group is considered impaired if its carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flow the asset or asset group is expected to generate.  If an asset or asset group is considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds its fair value.  If estimated fair value is less than the book value, the asset is written down to the estimated fair value and an impairment loss is recognized.

If we determine that the carrying amount of long-lived assets, including intangible assets, may not be recoverable, we measure any impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by our management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in our current business model or another valuation technique.  Considerable management judgment is necessary in estimating future cash flows and other factors affecting the valuation of long-lived assets, including intangible assets, including the operating and macroeconomic factors that may affect them.  We use historical financial information, internal plans, and projections and industry information in making such estimates. 

Due to the Company’s default on its loan with M&I Business Credit LLC and its foreclosure and repossession of the Company’s assets, which were liquidated at price significantly below the Company’s value, the Company’s property and equipment at December 31, 2009 was reduced to $-0-.
 
 
 
F - 7

 
 
GOODWILL

The Company applies ASC Topic 3650, "Intangibles--Goodwill and Other," which sets forth financial and reporting standards for the acquisition of intangible assets, other than those acquired in a business combination, and for goodwill and other intangible assets subsequent to their acquisition.  This accounting standard requires that goodwill no longer be amortized but tested for impairment on a periodic basis.

The Company had no goodwill as of December 31, 2010.

DEPRECIATION
 
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation for leasehold improvements is provided for using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or useful life.  Depreciation for property and equipment is provided for using the straight-line method over useful lives ranging from three to seven years. Improvements are capitalized while maintenance and repairs are expensed when incurred.

Upon retirement or disposition, cost and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

ASC Topic 360 requires the calculation of estimated fair value less cost to sell of long-lived assets for assets held for sale. The calculation of estimated fair value less cost to sell includes significant estimates and assumptions, including, but not limited to: operating projections; excess working capital levels; real estate values; and the anticipated costs involved in the selling process. The Company recognizes operations as discontinued when the operations have either ceased or are expected to be disposed of in a sale transaction in the near term, the operations and cash flows of all discontinued operations have been eliminated, or will be eliminated upon consummation of the expected sale transaction, and the Company will not have any significant continuing involvement in the discontinued operations subsequent to the expected sale transaction.

Nature Vision Operations

 On August 14, 2009, simultaneously with the signing of the Swordfish Financial, Inc. stock purchase agreement, the Company entered into a Voluntary Surrender Agreement with M&I Business Credit LLC (the ‘Creditor”), who as of August 14, 2009 was owed approximately $1,800,000 by the Company relating the Credit and Security Agreement dated November 8, 2007.   On August 14, 2009, M&I Business Credit LLC foreclosed on the Line of Credit and forced the Company to enter into a Voluntary Surrender Agreement and tender to M&I Business Credit LLC total possession of the Nature Vision Premises, its operations and all of the Nature  Vision assets to collect approximately $1,800,000 owed by the Company at that time.  After the M&I Business Credit LLC’s liquidated virtually all of the Nature Vision assets at significant discounts to book value, the Company has been left with no assets or product lines to market and continue the Nature Vision outdoor recreations products operations.

The results of the Nature Vision operations from the acquisition date through December 31, 2009 are presented on a historical basis as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations.  In accordance with ASC 205-20-45, “Income Statement Presentation, Allocation of Interest to Discontinued Operations,” the Company elected to allocate all consolidated interest expense to the discontinued operations, taking the position that all of the Company’s debt is directly attributed to or related to the discontinued operations.  All of the financial information in the consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements has been revised to reflect only the results of continuing operations (see Note 14).

REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
The Company’s revenues will be generated from successful recovery projects.  Each project will have its own terms as to the percentage of the recovery that the Company will retain as revenue.  The recovery revenues will be recognized by the Company when it takes possession of the revenues from each individual project, and be recognized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as outlined in the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 “Revenue Recognition” which requires that four basic criteria be met before revenue can be recognized: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) the price is fixed or determinable; (iii) reasonably assured it is collectible; and (iv) product delivery has occurred.   The Company’s policy is to present tax imposed on revenue producing transactions on a gross basis.
 
 
 
 
F - 8

 
 
SALES AND WARRANTY RESERVE
 
At December 31, 2009, the Company had a sales and warranty reserve of $200,000 for sales returns and warranty costs related to the former Nature Vision operations.   In 2010 after the Nature Visions operations had been discontinued in the last half of 2009 and no sales return or warranty claims had been received by the Company, the $200,000 warranty reserve, previously established, was reduced to zero.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
 
The Company expenses as general and administrative expense all costs related to product research and development as incurred. Research and development expense relating to continuing consulting agreements was $384,984 and $160,400 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
 
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
  
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition and measurements provisions of SFAS No. 123(R)(now ASC Topic 505, “Equity”), which requires companies to measure and recognize compensation expense for all stock-based payments at fair value.  SFAS No. 123(R) is being applied on the modified-prospective-transition method.  Prior to the adoption of  SFAS 123(R), the Company accounted for its stock-based compensation plans under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25,   “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”,   and related interpretations, and accordingly, recognized no compensation expense related to the stock-based plans.

In accordance with SFAS No. 123(R), cash flows from income tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for stock-based awards have been classified as financing cash flows prospectively from January 1, 2006. Prior to adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), such excess income tax benefits were presented as operating cash flows. There were no cash flows from income tax benefits for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

The Company did not issue any stock options during the year ended December 31, 2010.

LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
 
Net loss per common share was based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods when computing the basic net loss per share. When dilutive, stock options and warrants are included as equivalents using the treasury stock market method when computing the diluted net loss per share.  There were no dilutive common stock equivalents, options and warrants, for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.   There were no anti-dilutive options and warrants at December 31, 2010.

INCOME TAXES
 
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740 “Income Taxes,” which requires accounting for deferred income taxes under the asset and liability method.  Deferred income tax asset and liabilities are computed for difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on the enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.  Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce the deferred income tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
 
In accordance with GAAP, the Company is required to determine whether a tax position of the Company is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company files an income tax return in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and may file income tax returns in various U.S. state and local jurisdictions.  The tax benefit to be recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement.  De-recognition of a tax benefit previously recognized could result in the Company recording a tax liability that would reduce net assets. This policy also provides guidance on thresholds, measurement, de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition that is intended to provide better financial statement comparability among different entities.  It must be applied to all existing tax positions upon initial adoption and the cumulative effect, if any, is to be reported as an adjustment to stockholder’s equity.
 
 

 
F - 9

 

Based on its analysis, the Company has determined that the adoption of this policy did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption. However, management’s conclusions regarding this policy may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.

The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.

The federal and state tax returns are open to examination for the years 2005-2010.

ESTIMATES
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. For the Company, significant estimates include the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, reserves for inventory valuation, impairment of goodwill and long lived assets, reserves for sales returns, reserves for warranty services, and the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets.
 
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In December 2010, the FASB issued amended guidance related to Business Combinations. The amendments affect any public entity that enters into business combinations that are material on an individual or aggregate basis. The amendments specify that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. The amendments also expand the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. The amendments are effective prospectively for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will assess the impact of these amendments on its consolidated financial position and results of operations if and when an acquisition occurs.

In December 2010, the FASB issued amended guidance related to Intangibles - Goodwill and Other. The amendments modify Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that an impairment may exist. The qualitative factors are consistent with the existing guidance and examples, which require that goodwill of a reporting unit be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. For public entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company does not believe that this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20, "Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses (Topic 310)." ASU No. 2010-20 requires increased disclosures about the credit quality of financing receivables and allowances for credit losses, including disclosure about credit quality indicators, past due information and modifications of finance receivables. The guidance is generally effective for reporting periods ending after December 15, 2010. The adoption of ASU No. 2010-20 did not have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations.                

In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-17, "Revenue Recognition- Milestone Method (Topic 605)," which provides guidance on the criteria that should be met for determining whether the milestone method of revenue recognition is appropriate.  This ASU is effective in fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010.  We do not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2010-17 to have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-13, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718)," which provides guidance on the classification of a share-based payment award as either equity or a liability.  A share-based payment award that contains a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition is required to be classified as a liability.  This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010.  The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2010-13 to have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations.


 
F - 10

 

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09, "Subsequent Events (Topic 855) - Amendments to Certain Disclosure Requirements."  The objective of this ASU was to remove the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose a date through which subsequent events have been evaluated in both issued and revised financial statements.  This ASU is to be applied immediately upon issuance.  The Company adopted this ASU in the first quarter of 2010 and the adoption of this ASU did not have an effect on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) - Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements."  This ASU requires new disclosures regarding significant transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2, and information about activity in Level 3 fair value measurements.  In addition, this ASU clarifies existing disclosures regarding input and valuation techniques, as well as the level of disaggregation for each class of assets and liabilities.  This ASU was effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for certain Level 3 activity disclosure requirements, which are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company adopted the new guidance in the first quarter of 2010, except for the disclosures related to purchases, sales, issuance and settlements, which will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2011. Because these new standards are related primarily to disclosures, their adoption has not had and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13 on FASB ASC 605, Revenue Recognition-Multiple Deliverable Revenue Arrangements-a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force.” The objective of this ASU is to address the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services (deliverables) separately rather than as a combined unit. Vendors often provide multiple products or services to their customers. Those deliverables are often provided at different points in time or over different time periods. This ASU provides amendments to the criteria in FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC”) 605-25 for separating consideration in multiple-deliverable arrangements. The amendments in this ASU establish a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable. The selling price used for each deliverable will be based on vendor specific objective evidence if available, third-party evidence if vendor-specific objective evidence is not available, or estimated selling price if neither vendor specific objective evidence nor third-party evidence is available. The amendments in this ASU also will replace the term fair value” in the revenue allocation guidance with selling price” to clarify that the allocation of revenue is based on entity-specific assumptions rather than assumptions of a marketplace participant. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The implementation is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results
of operations.
 
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-14 (ASC Topic 985)  which provides authoritative guidance for the accounting for certain revenue arrangements that include software elements. This authoritative guidance amends the scope of pre-existing software revenue guidance by removing from the guidance non-software components of tangible products and certain software components of tangible products. This standard is effective prospectively for us no later than the beginning of fiscal 2011.  Early adoption is permitted.  The implementation is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-05 (ASC Topic 820) which amends the accounting standards related to the measurement of liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis.  This standard clarifies how a company should measure the fair value of liabilities and that restrictions preventing the transfer of a liability should not be considered as a factor in the measurement of liabilities within the scope of this standard.  This standard is effective for the Company on October 1, 2009 and did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In June 2009, FASB approved the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“the Codification”) as the single source of authoritative nongovernmental GAAP. All existing accounting standard documents, such as FASB, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, Emerging Issues Task Force and other related literature, excluding guidance from the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), have been superseded by the Codification. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification has become nonauthoritative. The Codification did not change GAAP, but instead introduced a new structure that combines all authoritative standards into a comprehensive, topically organized online database. The Codification is effective for interim or annual periods ending after September 15, 2009, and impacts the Company’s financial statements as all future
 references to authoritative accounting literature will be referenced in accordance with the Codification. There have been no changes to the content of the Company’s financial statements or disclosures as a result of implementing the Codification during the quarter ended September 30, 2009.   As a result of the Company’s implementation of the Codification during the quarter ended September 30, 2009, previous references to new accounting standards and literature are no longer applicable.  These changes and the Codification itself do not change GAAP.  Other than the manner in which new accounting guidance is referenced, the adoption of these changes had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASC Topic 855, "Subsequent Events" established general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date, but before the financial statements are issued or available to be issued (“subsequent events”). An entity is required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated and the basis for that date. For public entities, this is the date the financial statements are issued. ASC Topic 855 does not apply to subsequent events or transactions that are within the scope of other GAAP and did not result in significant changes in the subsequent events reported by the Company. This guidance became effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2009 and did not impact the Company’s financial statements. The Company evaluated for subsequent events through the issuance date of the Company’s financial statements. No recognized or non-recognized subsequent events were noted.

ASC Topic 350, "Intangibles--Goodwill and Other" amended the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under previously issued goodwill and intangible assets topics. This change was intended to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under topics related to business combinations and other GAAP. The requirement for determining useful lives must be applied prospectively to intangible assets acquired after the effective date and the disclosure requirements must be applied prospectively to all intangible assets recognized as of, and subsequent to, the effective date. FSP SFAS No. 142-3 became effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s financial statements.

FASB ASC Topic 810, "Consolidations" (formerly SFAS No. 160) changed the accounting and reporting for minority interests such that they will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests and classified as a component of equity. ASC Topic 810 guidance became effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 with early application prohibited. The Company implemented ASC Topic 810 guidance (formerly SFAS No. 160) at the start of fiscal 2009 and no longer records an intangible asset when the purchase price of a noncontrolling interest exceeds the book value at the time of buyout. Any excess or shortfall for buyouts of noncontrolling interests   is recognized as an adjustment to additional paid-in capital in stockholders’ equity. Any shortfall resulting from the early buyout of noncontrolling interests will continue to be recognized as a benefit in partner investment expense up to the initial amount recognized at the time of buy-in. Additionally, operating losses can be allocated to noncontrolling interests even when such allocation results in a deficit balance (  i.e.,   book value can go negative).  The Company presents noncontrolling interests (previously shown as minority interest) as a component of equity on its consolidated balance sheets. Minority interest expense is no longer separately reported as a reduction to net income on the consolidated income statement, but is instead shown below net income under the heading “net income attributable to noncontrolling interests.” The adoption of this guidance did not have any other material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In December 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2009-17, “Consolidations (FASB ASC Topic 810) - Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities,” which codifies FASB Statement No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R). ASU 2009-17 represents a revision to former FASB Interpretation No. 46 (Revised December 2003), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,” and changes how a reporting entity determines when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled through voting (or similar rights) should be consolidated. The determination of whether a reporting entity is required to consolidate another entity is based on, among other things, the other entity’s purpose and design and the reporting entity’s ability to direct the activities of the other entity that most significantly impact the other entity’s economic performance.  ASU 2009-17 also requires a reporting entity to provide additional disclosures about its involvement with variable interest entities and any significant changes in risk exposure due to that involvement. A reporting entity will be required to disclose how its involvement with a variable interest entity affects the reporting entity’s financial statements.  ASU 2009-17 is effective at the start of a reporting entity’s first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2009, or the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2010. Early application is not permitted. We have not yet determined the impact, if any, which of the provisions of ASU 2009-15 may have on the Company’s financial statements.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards or pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 2 –   GOING CONCERN 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  We incurred net losses of $2,696,278 in 2010 and $1,946,293 in 2009 and had an accumulated deficit of $7,581,481 as of December 31, 2010.  We have managed our liquidity during the fourth quarter of 2010 and first part of first quarter of 2011 through cost reduction initiatives and the proceeds from the sale of common stock and advances from shareholders.  The Company is in default on notes payable and outstanding judgments totaling $1,851,421 and $1,035,091, respectively, and expects to repay the notes payable, judgments and accrued interest plus all of its other liabilities from the proceeds derived from the first asset recovery it completes.

On the August 14, 2009 foreclosure by M&I Business Credit LLC and forcing the Company to enter into a Voluntary Surrender Agreement which gave M&I Business Credit LLC total possession of the Company’s Premises, operations and all of the Company’s assets to collect the approximately $1,800,000 owed by the Company at that time.  After the M&I Business Credit LLC’s liquidations of virtually all of the Company’s assets at significant discounts to book value, the Company has been left with no assets or product lines to market and continue the Nature Vision outdoor recreations products operations.

Despite cost reduction initiatives, the Company will be unable to pay its obligations in the normal course of business or service its debt in a timely manner throughout 2011 without completing one of its recovery projects, raising additional debt or equity capital.  See Notes 6 and 12, for a discussion of capital acquired by the Company.  There can be no assurance that this financing arrangement will alleviate the Company’s 12 month working capital needs unless it is funded or the Company can complete a recovery project.

The Company is currently evaluating strategic alternatives that include the following: (i) raising of capital (ii) issuance of debt instruments.  This process is ongoing and may be lengthy and has inherent costs.  There can be no assurance that the exploration of strategic alternatives will result in any specific action to alleviate the Company’s 12 month working capital needs or result in any other transaction.
 
NOTE 3 — REVERSE MERGER ACQUISITION
 
In August of 2009 a stock acquisition/reverse merger agreement was entered into by Nature Vision, Inc. (nka Swordfish Financial, Inc.) (the “Company”) and Swordfish Financial, Inc., the Texas corporation. The reverse merger was closed on August 14, 2009. Pursuant to the terms of the reverse merger, the equity holders of Swordfish Financial, Inc., the Texas corporation, acquired 10,987,417 shares of common stock constituting 80% of voting control of the Company in return for a $3,500,000 note, bearing interest at the rate of 5% per annum.  The financial statements have been prepared to include the results of operations for the Company for the year ended December 31, 2009.
 
As a result of the reverse merger being accounted for as a reverse merger acquisition, Nature Vision’s assets and liabilities assets and liabilities as of  the closing date of the reverse merger, have been incorporated into Swordfish Financial, Inc.’s balance sheet based on the fair values of the net assets acquired, which equaled the consideration paid for the acquisition.  FASB ASC 805-10 requires an allocation of the acquisition consideration to the individual assets and liabilities. Further, the Company’s operating results (post-Merger) include Swordfish Financial, Inc., a Texas corporation, operating results prior to the date of the closing and the results of the combined entity following the closing of the Merger. Swordfish Financial, Inc., a Texas corporation, was considered the acquiring entity for accounting purposes.

NOTE 4 – NOTES PAYABLE - Affiliate

Former Member of Board of Directors

On October 19, 2007, the Company borrowed $1,000,000 from a member of its Board of Directors (who resigned on August 17, 2009) in order to meet its short-term cash flow requirement. This demand promissory note was unsecured and had an interest rate of 15%. Interest was payable on the first day of each month, commencing on December 1, 2007.
 
On July 8, 2008, the Company amended the terms and replaced the original demand note issued to the member of its Board of Directors (who resigned on August 17, 2009) on October 19, 2007.  The amended demand note is held by the same member of the Company’s Board of Directors.  The demand promissory note is unsecured and bears an interest rate of 15%.  Interest is payable on the first day of each month.  The Company incurred approximately $150,000 and $139,000 of interest for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  The entire principal and interest is payable upon demand anytime after August 17, 2010.

In August 2010, the Company borrowed $50,000 from a former Board of Directors in order to meet its short-term cash flow requirement.

As the result of the $200,000 and $50,000 promissory notes being convertible into the Company’s common stock they were evaluated under ASC470-20 and considered in the money on their dates of issuance resulting in an embedded beneficial conversion feature.  The conversion price of $.10 per share compared to the market price of $.40 computed to a $.30 per share intrinsic value related to each note which the Company recorded as discount of $200,000 on the $200,000 promissory note and $50,000 on the $50,000 note, as the discounts were capped at the note value.  For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company amortized as interest expense $200,000 the entire discount recorded on the $200,000 promissory note as payment can be demanded at anytime.   For the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company amortized as interest expense $12,500 of the discount recorded on the $50,000 promissory note which had a 180 day maturity date from its date of issue.

The change in the valuation allowance was $839,000 and $514,000 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  There was an 80% change in ownership control in 2009 making it highly unlikely that subject to limitations set forth in Internal Revenue Code 382, the Company will be able to carry forward any benefits of the deferred tax assets created before the change in ownership.  The Company has recorded a 100% valuation allowance related to the deferred tax asset for the loss from operations, interest expense, interest income and other income subsequent to the Swordfish Financial change in ownership, which amounted to $839,000 and $514,000 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. 
 
The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, historical taxable income including available net operating loss carryforwards to offset taxable income, and projected future taxable income in making this assessment.

The Company has federal and state net operating losses of approximately $1,353,000 available at December 31, 2010 which, if not used, will begin to expire in 2024. Future changes in the ownership of the Company may place limitations on the use of these net operating losses.

NOTE 10 - DEFERRED RETIREMENT BENEFITS
 
The Company has retirement benefit agreements with past employees, which are funded by life insurance. Under the agreements, covered individuals become vested immediately upon death or if employed at age 65. Benefit costs were recognized over the period of service and recorded as accrued retirement benefits. The total accrued balance due was $438,782 at December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Employment Agreement
 
The Company has no employment agreements as of December 31, 2010.   
 
Lease Commitment

The Company’s lease for the Nature Vision space in Brainerd, Minnesota was terminated on December 31, 2009 by agreement with the landlord.
 
            Other Commitments

The Company has a research and development consulting agreement with an outside entity that exist from the period prior to the reverse merger acquisition agreement.  The agreement has two components requiring it to pay monthly installments of $14,583 for research and development services and $8,333 for product support services.  At December 31, 2010 the amount remaining to be paid on the agreement was $175,000.  The Company recognized $274,992 of expense relating to this agreement for the year ended December 31, 2010, which is included in administrative expense.

The Company has a research and development consulting agreement with an outside entity that exists from the period prior to the reverse merger acquisition agreement.  The agreement has two components requiring it to pay monthly installments of $5,000 for research and development services and $4,166 for product support services.  At December 31, 2010 the amount remaining to be paid on the agreement was $60,000.  The Company recognized $109,992 of expense relating to this agreement for the year ended December 31, 2010, which is included in administrative expense.

Legal Proceedings

            Various creditors have brought suit for collections of their claims against the Company.  These liabilities are recorded above in Note 6 – Judgments Payable.  Management is of the opinion that the outcome will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operation.

NOTE 12 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Current Officer and Director Promissory Note to Company

On August 14, 2009, the Company, (formerly Nature Vision, Inc.), closed a Stock Purchase/Merger Agreement with Swordfish Financial, Inc., a Texas corporation, pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of 10,987,417 shares of its common stock in exchange for a $3,500,000 promissory note, payable in two installments of $1,750,000 each with the first installment being forty-five (45) days from the date of the note and the second installment being one-hundred twenty (120) days from the date of the note.  The note bears interest at the rate of 5% per annum.  As the date of this filing, no payments have been made on the promissory note and accrued interest.  The Company expects to be paid in full by shareholders of the Texas corporation.


 
F - 17

 

The Company’s Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer is now the beneficial owner of 7,700,000 shares of the 10,987,417 shares of the Company's common stock from the share distribution in the stock purchase/merger transaction.

Former Officer and Director Loans to Company

In October 2008, the Company borrowed $700,000 from Jeffrey P. Zernov, its former Chief Executive Officer (Mr. Zernov resigned on August 17, 2009), in order to meet its short-term cash flow requirements. This promissory note was unsecured and had an interest rate of 15%.

NOTE 14 - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Nature Vision Operations

The Company did not meet the minimum net worth covenants as of June 30, 2009, which put the Company in default on its line of credit with the bank and on August 14, 2009, simultaneously with the signing of the Swordfish Financial, Inc., the Texas corporation,
stock purchase agreement, the Company was forced to entered into a Voluntary Surrender Agreement with M&I Business Credit LLC (the ‘Creditor”), who as of August 14, 2009 was owed approximately $1,800,000 by the Company relating to a Credit and Security Agreement dated November 8, 2007.   M&I Business Credit LLC took total possession of Nature Vision’s Premises, its operations and all of the Nature Vision assets to collect approximately $1,800,000 owed by the Company at that time.  After M&I Business Credit LLC liquidated virtually all of the Company’s assets at significant discounts to book value, the Company was left with minimal assets and no product lines to market and continue the Nature Vision outdoor recreations products operations.
