ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

 

Overview

 

Todays Alternative Energy Corporation (the “Company” or “we”) is a development stage company. Our business has two primary opportunities that we are developing. We have a green cleaning products business that is organized to use our own scientific formulations to manufacture and sell a new line of industrial strength, environmentally friendly, biodegradable cleaning products that contain natural non-toxic ingredients. We have a biodiesel business that is organized to use our extraction technology to convert waste cooking oil and grease into a biodiesel fuel ingredient that we intend to sell to biodiesel fuel producers. Our biodiesel business is designed to eliminate environmental issues associated with disposing of waste cooking oil and grease.

 

Company History

 

We are a Nevada corporation that was originally formed on September 19, 1994 as a New York corporation. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2000, we operated under the name “Ream Printing Paper Corp.” and had not engaged in any business for a number of years. From the fourth quarter of 2000 until March, 2004, we operated under the name Single Source Financial Services Corporation (“SSFS”) and engaged in the electronic transaction processing business.

 

In March, 2004, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding stock of Bio Solutions Manufacturing, Inc., a Nevada corporation, in exchange for approximately 92% of its issued and outstanding common stock. We changed our name to Bio Solutions Manufacturing, Inc. and the name of our wholly owned subsidiary was changed to Bio Solutions Production, Inc. (“BSP”). Through BSP, (prior the October 2008 reincorporation merger (see below)), we engaged in the business of manufacturing environmentally safe bio-remediation products for the treatment of various forms of waste by the food service industry and municipal waste treatment plants and other customers throughout the United States.

 

In June 2006, we acquired all of the outstanding equity of Bio-Extraction Services, Inc. (“BESI”), a company focused on the production of bio-fuel technology. In connection with this acquisition, we acquired BESI’s technology, which is used to extract grease from waste products, which is then converted into a B100 biodiesel fuel ingredient.

 

On July 25, 2008, we created a series of preferred stock of the Company known as Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share. The Series A Preferred Stock is not convertible into shares of our common stock. Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock do not have any preferential dividend or liquidation rights. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock are not redeemable. On all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of the common stock, including, without limitation, the election of directors, a holder of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to the number of votes on such matters equal to the product of (a) the number of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder, (b) the number of issued and outstanding shares of Company common stock, as of the record date for the vote, or, if no such record date is established, as of the date such vote is taken or any written consent of stockholders is solicited, and (c) 0.0002. On December 20, 2010, our former Chief Financial Officer and the sole holder of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, sold the 10,000 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock to Len Amato, our current President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer, Secretary, and Chairman of the Board of Directors, which resulted in his effectively having voting control of the Company.

 

On October 31, 2008, we changed our domicile from New York to Nevada by means of a merger of Bio Solutions Manufacturing, Inc., a New York corporation with and into its wholly owned subsidiary Bio Solutions Manufacturing, Inc., a Nevada corporation (formerly BSP). In connection with the change in domicile, the par value of our common stock and preferred stock was reduced to $0.00001 per share on October 31, 2008.

 

On June 9, 2010, we filed an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation in order to change our name to “Todays Alternative Energy Corporation

 

On October 6, 2010, we formed our wholly-owned subsidiary, Guaranteed Enzyme Miracle Corporation, a Texas corporation, in which we will operate our green cleaning products business.

 

In October 2010, the Company negotiated a 64-month lease agreement for a 14,833 square foot facility in San Antonio, Texas. The lease contains real estate tax and operating escalations and a termination option after the third year. Monthly rental payments start five months after completion of leasehold improvements to the facility and receipt of a certificate of occupancy. In June 2011, the landlord informed us of an approximately $100,000 increase in anticipated costs to build our manufacturing facility.  We rejected the landlord’s revised plans and do not plan to go forward with the lease on the present terms. The landlord objects to the Company’s rejection of the new lease terms and seeks to go forward with the lease.  We are currently reviewing our options on how to proceed with growing the GEM products business.

On May 20, 2011, the Company filed a certificate of amendment to its Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada to effectuate a reverse stock split on a 1 to 20 basis.  Each holder of common stock received 1 share of the Company’s common stock for each 20 shares of the Company’s common stock held. Fractional shares were rounded up to the nearest whole share. All per share numbers quoted herein are reflective of the 1:20 reverse split. All common stock and related information have been retroactively restated.

 

On October 10, 2011, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with a third party investor pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of 16,406,915 shares of its restricted common stock to the investor for an aggregate purchase price of $100,000. The investor owned 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock at the time of the sale. As of January 27, 2012, the investor owns 61.9% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

 

Over the course of our fiscal year ended October 31, 2011, we borrowed $74,500 under our loan agreement dated November 29, 2006 and used the proceeds to fund the development of our business.

 

Our executive offices are located at 191 Post Road West, Westport, Connecticut 06880. Our telephone number is (888) 880-0994.

 

Our Business

 

We are a development stage company. Our business has two primary opportunities that we are developing. We have a green cleaning products business that is organized to use our own scientific formulations to manufacture and sell a new line of industrial strength environmentally friendly biodegradable cleaning products that contain natural non-toxic ingredients. We have a biodiesel business that is organized to use our extraction technology to convert waste cooking oil and grease into a biodiesel fuel ingredient that we intend to sell to biodiesel fuel producers. Our biodiesel business is designed to eliminate environmental issues associated with disposing of waste cooking oil and grease. We are expanding our strategy beyond our current technology and positioning the Company to find new ways to produce biofuels feedstock to gain a share of forecasted growth in demand for biofuels.

 

The Green Cleaning Products Opportunity

 

On July 1, 2010, we announced plans to brand our new line of industrial strength, environmentally friendly biodegradable cleaning products with the GEM name, a Company-owned brand. The GEM brand name and the accompanying tagline, "Guaranteed Enzyme Miracle," call attention to the natural enzymes and other eco-friendly industrial strength ingredients in GEM cleansers that quickly remove oil, grease and other stubborn stains. GEM products contain no ammonia, phosphates, dyes, artificial scents or toxins, and are biodegradable. GEM products will enter a large expanding market for green cleaners. The GEM products are made using precise scientific formulations of raw material ingredients combined in a regimented production process. We maintain strict confidentiality over our formulations and processes for producing GEM products; however we believe that our formulations are not patentable. We believe that our product formulations and regimented production process bolster our GEM products’ effectiveness and are the basis for their differentiation from other cleaners available to consumers from retail outlets. Each of the raw material ingredients is commercially available from multiple suppliers that enable us to not become dependent on any one supplier. Natural enzymes are a key ingredient in GEM products that require cultivation to achieve the desired maturation and replication by qualified chemists. The GEM products can be produced either by a laboratory and production facility we operated, operate by a third party vendor under our supervision or a combination of internal and external resources

 

U.S. retail sales of green household cleaning products totaled $557 million in 2009 and have grown 229% since 2005, claiming 3% of the total household cleaner retail market according to Packaged Facts' independent proprietary online green cleaner survey and sales estimates. According to their estimates, annual sales of green cleaner products in the U.S. will grow to $2 billion by 2014, an increase that is 4 times the size of 2009 sales. Sales growth is coming from increased numbers of U.S. consumers who report using natural, organic or ecologically friendly household cleaning products. According to a Packaged Facts' February 2010 survey, 42% of adult consumers used green cleaning products, which translates into 48 million U.S. households.

 

We plan to market GEM products to American consumers directly and through retailers. We plan to hire manufacturer sales representatives who would promote GEM products to retail buyers. We are currently reviewing our options for producing GEM products at a facility that we would operate or contracting with a third party producer that would make GEM products for us. Product prices are planned to be competitive with branded household floor, carpet and drain cleaning products.

 

The Biodiesel Opportunity

 

With our acquisition of BESI and its oil and grease extraction technology, we entered the biodiesel market. We plan to develop, produce and sell a biodiesel fuel ingredient to biodiesel fuel producers. Our business is designed to eliminate environmental issues associated with disposing of waste cooking oil and grease.  Our oil and grease extraction technology allows us to use yellow fat and trap grease as our raw material to manufacture a biodiesel fuel ingredient as compared to other manufacturers that use agricultural feedstock and other energy sources such as soy oils and animal fats. Our oil and grease extraction technology consists of a series of processes that begin with collecting raw waste cooking oil and grease in holding tanks and putting this raw material through a specified series of physical processes that separate, refine, alter and extract the desired finished product using equipment configured and operated according to our specifications. We maintain strict confidentiality over our formulations and processes for producing the biodiesel ingredient, however we believe that our technology is not patentable.

Waste cooking oil and grease, our primary raw material ingredient, is readily available from multiple restaurants and institutional food producers. Restaurants and food service preparation facilities are required to trap the yellow fat and grease they produce and dispose of it and keep it out of the public’s sewer systems. Food service preparation facilities and municipalities pay haulers to remove, transport and dispose of the yellow fat and trap grease they produce. Haulers of such grease are required to pay “tipping” fees to waste storage and disposal facilities in connection with the disposal of the yellow fat and trap grease. The business we are seeking to develop calls for establishing relationships with several producers and haulers of yellow fat and trap grease that obtain their waste for use as raw material for our extraction process that produces a biodiesel fuel ingredient. We intend to construct a program under which haulers will incentivize them based upon the amount of yellow fat and trap grease delivered to processing facilities we intend to construct. We believe that we can take delivery of waste oil and grease from multiple removal services in plentiful quantities that enable us to not become dependent on any one supplier.

 

Principal Biodiesel Products, Markets and Competition

 

The principal product we expect to produce at our future plants is an ingredient used to produce biodiesel fuel.

 

Biodiesel fuel is a clean-burning alternative fuel produced from domestic, renewable resources that are primarily used in compression ignition (diesel) engines. Biodiesel can also be used as heating oil. Biodiesel is comprised of mono-alkyl esters of long chain fatty acids derived from vegetable oils or animal fats. A chemical process called transesterification removes the free fatty acids from the base oil and creates the desired esters. Transesterification is the reaction of vegetable oil or animal fat with an alcohol, such as methanol or ethanol, in the presence of a catalyst. The process yields four products: mono-alkyl ester (biodiesel), glycerin, feed quality fat, and methanol. The methanol can be used again in the process.

 

Biodiesel can then be used in neat (pure) form, or blended with petroleum diesel. Biodiesel that is in neat (pure) form is typically designated in the marketplace as B100. The 100 indicates that the fuel is 100% biodiesel. Biodiesel is frequently blended with petroleum based diesel. When biodiesel is blended, it is typically identified in the marketplace according to the percentage of biodiesel in the blend. For instance, B20 indicates that 20% of the fuel is biodiesel and 80% is petroleum-based diesel.

 

Biodiesel’s physical and chemical properties, as they relate to operations of diesel engines, are similar to petroleum-based diesel fuel. As a result, biodiesel, in its pure form or blended with petroleum diesel, may be used in most standard diesel engines without making any engine modifications. Biodiesel demonstrates greater lubricating properties, referred to as lubricity, than petroleum-based diesel.   Biodiesel also demonstrates greater solvent properties. The solvent properties of biodiesel also can cause accumulated deposits from petroleum-based diesel in fuel systems to break down.

 

Biodiesel is primarily used as fuel for compression ignition (diesel) engines. Biodiesel can also be used as heating oil. It is produced using renewable resources including plant oils and animal fats. Our ability to market and sell our biodiesel fuel ingredient will be heavily dependent upon the price of petroleum-based diesel fuel as compared to the price of biodiesel, in addition to the availability of economic incentives to produce biodiesel. Biodiesel is frequently used as fuel in transport trucks, ships, trains, in farming activities and in many government vehicles. Government legislation that seeks to encourage use of renewable fuels could lead to an expansion of the market for biodiesel in the future. Further market increases might occur as a result of environmental concerns by American consumers as well as an increased awareness of energy security and the United States’ ability to supply its own fuel needs.

 

The retail market for biodiesel fuel consists of biodiesel distribution primarily through fueling stations to transport trucks and jobbers, which are individuals that buy product from manufacturers and sell it to retailers, who supply farmers, maritime customers and home heating oil users. Retail level distributors include oil companies, independent station owners, marinas, and railroad operators. The biodiesel retail market is still in its very early stages as compared to other types of fuel. The present marketing and transportation network must expand significantly in order for our Company to effectively market our biodiesel to retail users. With increased governmental support of renewable fuels and greater consumer awareness of renewable fuels, we believe that the availability of biodiesel will likely increase in the future, which would lead to greater demand for the biodiesel fuel ingredient we intend to produce and sell.

 

We will operate in a very competitive environment. Biodiesel is a relatively uniform commodity where the competition in the marketplace is predominantly based on price and to a lesser extent delivery service. We will compete to sell our biodiesel fuel ingredient to biodiesel plants that will seek the lowest possible price to pay us for our product. 

 

A primary competitor is Renewable Energy Group®, the nation’s largest biodiesel producer with a nationwide distribution system. Utilizing their fullyintegrated platform, Renewable Energy Group is focused on converting natural fats, oils and greases into biodiesel. 

 

Regulatory Matters

 

GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS FAVORING BIODIESEL PRODUCTION AND USE

 

The biodiesel industry benefits from numerous federal and state government programs, the most important of which is RFS2. On July 1, 2010, RFS2’s biomass-based diesel requirement became effective, requiring for the first time that a certain percentage of the diesel fuel consumed in the United States be made from renewable sources. Biodiesel and renewable diesel can satisfy the biomass-based diesel requirement, however renewable diesel is not currently available in the United States in significant commercial quantities. RFS2 requires one billion gallons of biomass-based diesel in 2012 and at least one billion gallons each year thereafter, with such higher amounts subject to EPA discretion. In June 2011, the EPA proposed a 1.28 billion gallon biomass-based diesel requirement for 2013.

The blenders’ tax credit provides a $1.00 per gallon excise tax credit to the first person who blends the biodiesel with at least 0.1% petroleum-based diesel fuel. The blenders’ tax credit can then be credited against such blender’s federal excise tax liability or the blender can obtain a cash refund from the United States Treasury for the value of the credit. The blenders’ tax credit became effective January 1, 2005 and then lapsed January 1, 2010 before being reinstated retroactively December 17, 2010. The blenders’ tax credit is currently authorized through the end of 2011. The industry has been lobbying to retain the $1-a-gallon credit, and Rep. Collin C. Peterson (D-Minnesota), an industry supporter, is co-sponsor of the House bill.

 

Several states have enacted legislation providing incentives for the use of biodiesel, requiring the use of biodiesel, or both. Currently, more than 40 states have programs that encourage the use of biodiesel through blending requirements as well as various tax incentives and several states have adopted or are considering adopting a low carbon fuel standard requiring a reduction in the amount of lifecycle carbon intensity in their transportation fuels. Biodiesel has lower carbon emissions than petroleum-based diesel and is thus expected to benefit from increased demand in states like California that have adopted a low carbon fuel standard that calls for a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from transportation fuels of 10% by 2020.

 

Research and Development

 

We incurred $58,430 and $13,217 in research and development expenditures in the year ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

 

Employees

 

We have 1 full-time employee consisting of our Chief Executive Officer. None of our employees are represented by a labor union and we have not entered into a collective bargaining agreement with any union.

 

Item 1A.  Risk Factors and Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information

 

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following risk factors and the other information in this annual report before investing in our common stock. Our business and results of operations could be seriously harmed by any of the following risks. The trading price of our common stock could decline due to any of these risks.

 

Risks Related to our Business

 

We have not had profitable operations in recent periods, and we expect our financial losses to continue in the future.

 

We have recognized net losses for the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. We intend to invest substantial amounts in research and development activities through the year ended October 31, 2012 to advance the development of our products and business lines. Therefore, we expect our lack of profitable operations to continue in the future.

 

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

As of October 31, 2011 and 2010, our independent public accounting firm issued “going concern opinions” wherein they stated that the accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern  Going concern contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business over a reasonable length of time. We have incurred losses since inception and have had negative cash flows from operations. For the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, we incurred net losses, and had a stockholders’ deficit. Our future is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing and upon future successful development and marketing of our products and services. Although we may need to pursue additional financing, there can be no assurance that we will be able to secure such financing or obtain financing on terms beneficial to us. Failure to secure such financing may result in our inability to continue as a going concern.  These matters raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

We lack proper internal controls and procedures.

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Securities Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our Chief Executive Officer carried out an evaluation, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our system of disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer concluded that our controls and procedures as of October 31, 2011 were not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in our periodic reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified for each report and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

6
 

 

During the course of the preparation of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2011, we identified certain material weaknesses relating to our internal controls over financial reporting. We have limited resources and only one employee, which inherently limits our ability to properly segregate duties. This internal control deficiency may also constitute deficiencies in our disclosure controls.

 

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 will be met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events.

 

Our CEO/CFO is in the process of implementing a more effective system of controls, procedures, and other changes in the areas of accounting for equity transactions, document control, account analysis, and reconciliation to insure that information required to be disclosed in this annual report on Form 10-K has been recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately. Our management acknowledges the existence of this problem, and intends to develop procedures to address them to the extent possible given limitations in financial and manpower resources.

 

Among the changes needed to be implemented is the hiring of employees, engagement of consultants and appointment of members of our board of directors who will enable us to adequately segregate duties and fulfill the functions performed by independent members of our board of directors.

 

Risks Associated with Investing in our Common Stock

 

We have issued a substantial number of securities convertible into shares of our common stock which will result in substantial dilution to the ownership interests of our existing stockholders.

 

As of October 31, 2011, approximately 3,009,425,000 shares of our common stock were convertible or exercisable from the following securities: 3,009,425,000 shares representing shares of common stock issuable upon conversion in full of our outstanding convertible promissory notes (without regard to any limitations on conversion).  The exercise or conversion of these securities will result in a significant increase in the number of outstanding shares and substantially dilute the ownership interests of our existing shareholders.

 

A substantial number of our convertible securities are convertible into shares of common stock at a current on price of $0.001 per share. Most of these shares are eligible for public resale. The trading price of our common stock and our ability to raise additional financing may be adversely affected by the influx into the market of such a substantial number of shares.

 

As of October 31, 2011, our outstanding convertible notes were convertible into 1,933,006,372 and 1,076,418,139 shares of common stock at a per share conversion price equal to $0.001 per share and $0.0001 per share, respectively, each of which is less than the current trading price of our shares. The shares issuable upon conversion of our convertible notes are eligible for public resale under Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 144. This significant increase in number of shares available for public sale may have a negative impact on the trading price of our shares and substantially dilute the ownership interest of our existing shareholders. In order to raise additional financing we would likely be required to issue additional shares of common stock or securities convertible into common stock at a purchase or conversion price as applicable, on similar terms. To the extent these factors are viewed negatively by the market, it may provide an incentive for persons to execute short sales of our common stock that could adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.

 

The issuance of shares under awards granted under existing or future employee benefit plans may cause immediate and substantial dilution to our existing stockholders.

 

In order to provide persons who have a responsibility for our management and/or growth with additional incentive, to increase their proprietary interest in our success, and to support and increase our ability to attract and retain individuals of exceptional talent, we have, since inception, adopted several stock incentive plans including; a 2011 Equity Incentive Plan, a 2008 Stock Incentive Plan, a 2008 California Stock Incentive Plan, a 2007 Stock Incentive Plan, a 2006 Stock Incentive Plan and a 2002 Omnibus Securities Plan. As of October 31, 2011, we had issued 1,569,490 shares under stock incentive plans. We may also adopt one or more additional employee benefit plans in the future. The issuance of shares under an employee benefit plan may result in substantial dilution to the interests of other stockholders. There only upper limit on the number of shares that may be issued under the number of shares of common stock we may reserve under employee benefit plans is the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under our articles of incorporation. The issuance of shares under current or future employee benefit plans will have the effect of further diluting the proportionate equity interest and voting power of holders of our common stock.

Shares of our stock suffer from low trading volume and wide fluctuations in market price.

 

Our common stock is currently quoted on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board trading system under the symbol TAEC.OB. An investment in our common stock currently is illiquid and subject to significant market volatility. This illiquidity and volatility may be caused by a variety of factors including low trading volume and market conditions.

 

In addition, the value of our common stock could be affected by actual or anticipated variations in our operating results; changes in the market valuations of other similarly situated companies serving similar markets; announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, collaborations, joint ventures or capital commitments; adoption of new accounting standards affecting our industry; additions or departures of key personnel; introduction of new products or services by us or our competitors; actual or expected sales of our common stock or other securities in the open market; conditions or trends in the market in which we operate; and other events or factors, many of which are beyond our control.

 

Stockholders may experience wide fluctuations in the market price of our securities. These fluctuations may have an extremely negative effect on the market price of our securities and may prevent a stockholder from obtaining a market price equal to the purchase price such stockholder paid when the stockholder attempts to sell our securities in the open market. In these situations, the stockholder may be required either to sell our securities at a market price which is lower than the purchase price the stockholder paid, or to hold our securities for a longer period of time than planned. An inactive market may also impair our ability to raise capital by selling shares of capital stock and may impair our ability to acquire other companies by using common stock as consideration or to recruit and retain managers with equity-based incentive plans.

 

The volatility of our stock price affect our may adversely affect the market price for our common stock.

 

The market price of our common stock has historically been volatile. We believe the market price of the common stock could continue to fluctuate substantially, based on a variety of factors, including quarterly fluctuations in results of operations, timing of product releases, announcements of new products and acquisitions or acquisitions by our competitors, changes in earnings estimates by research analysts, and changes in accounting treatments or principles. The market price of our common stock may be affected by our ability to meet or exceed analysts’ or “street” expectations, and any failure to meet or exceed such expectations could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. Furthermore, stock prices for many companies, fluctuate widely for reasons that may be unrelated to their operating results. These fluctuations and general economic, political and market conditions, such as recessions or international currency fluctuations and demand for our products, may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

 

Our common stock is subject to the “Penny Stock” rules of the SEC, which makes transactions in our stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our stock.

 

Our common stock is considered a “Penny Stock”.  The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which generally defines "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors". The term "accredited investor" refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock. The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, has adopted sales practice requirements which may also limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock. In addition to the "penny stock" rules described above, FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit investors’ ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.

 

If we fail to remain current in our reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, our shares could be removed from trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, which would limit the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their shares in the secondary market.

 

Our common stock is registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. As a result, we are required to file annual and quarterly reports under the Exchange Act. In addition, in order for our shares of common stock to be eligible for trading on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, we must file these reports on a timely basis. If we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements under the Exchange Act, our shares could be removed from trading from the OTC Bulletin Board. As a result, the market liquidity for our securities could be severely adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market. In addition, we may be unable to become re-eligible for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board, which may have an adverse material effect on our company and our common stock.

We have never paid nor do we expect in the near future to pay dividends.

 

We have never paid cash dividends on our capital stock and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future.  Investors should not rely on an investment in our Company if they require income generated from dividends paid on our capital stock.  Any income derived from our common stock would only come from rise in the market price of our common stock, which is uncertain and unpredictable.

 

Any projections used in this report may not be accurate.

 

Any and all projections and estimates contained in this report or otherwise prepared by us are based on information and assumptions which management believes to be accurate; however, they are mere projections and no assurance can be given that actual performance will match or approximate the projections.

 

Substantial sales of our stock may impact the market price of our common stock.

 

Future sales of substantial amounts of our common stock, including shares that we may issue upon exercise of options and convertible notes, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Further, if we raise additional funds through the issuance of common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock, the percentage ownership of our stockholders will be reduced and the price of our common stock may fall.

 

We are controlled by our principal stockholder.

 

Our Series A preferred stockholder, who is also our Chief Executive Officer, holds a majority of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock and is entitled to vote on any matter presented to our stockholders. On all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of the common stock, including, without limitation, the election of directors, a holder of shares of our Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to the number of votes on such matters equal to the product of (a) the number of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder, (b) the number of issued and outstanding shares of our common stock, as of the record date for the vote, or, if no such record date is established, as of the date such vote is taken or any written consent of stockholders is solicited, and (c) 0.0002. So long as this principal stockholder controls a majority of our fully diluted equity, they will continue to have the ability to elect our directors and determine the outcome of votes by our stockholders on corporate matters, including mergers, sales of all or substantially all of our assets, charter amendments and other matters requiring stockholder approval.   This controlling interest may have a negative impact on the market price of our common stock by discouraging third-party investors.

 

Issuing preferred stock with rights senior to those of our common stock could adversely affect holders of common stock.

 

Our charter documents give our board of directors the authority to issue series of preferred stock without a vote or action by our stockholders. The board also has the authority to determine the terms of preferred stock, including price, preferences and voting rights. The rights granted to holders of preferred stock may adversely affect the rights of holders of our common stock. For example, a series of preferred stock may be granted the right to receive a liquidation preference – a pre-set distribution in the event of a liquidation – that would reduce the amount available for distribution to holders of common stock. In addition, the issuance of preferred stock could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire a majority of our outstanding voting stock. As a result, common stockholders could be prevented from participating in transactions that would offer an optimal price for their shares.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

 

Our common stock has traded on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “TAEC.OB” since December 10, 2010.  Prior to that, it traded under the symbol “BSOM.OB”.  The following table shows the high and low bid or close prices for our common stock for each quarter since November 1, 2009 as reported by the OTC Bulletin Board.  We consider our stock to be “thinly traded” and any reported sale prices may not be a true market-based valuation of the stock. Some of the bid quotations from the OTC Bulletin Board set forth below may reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not represent actual transactions.

 

November 1, 2010 to October 31, 2011  High   Low 
First quarter  $0.14   $0.14 
Second quarter   0.03    0.018

As of January 27, 2012, there were approximately 1,789 record holders of our common stock.

 

Dividend Policy

 

We have not paid any cash dividends since our inception and do not contemplate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. It is anticipated that earnings, if any, will be retained to retire debt and for the operation of the business.

 

Shares eligible for future sale could depress the price of our common stock, thus lowering the value of a buyer’s investment. Sales of substantial amounts of common stock, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect prevailing market prices for shares of our common stock.

General

 

We are a development stage company. Our business has two primary opportunities that we are developing. We have a green cleaning products business that is organized to use our own scientific formulations to manufacture and sell a new line of industrial strength, environmentally friendly biodegradable cleaning products that contain natural non-toxic ingredients. We have a biodiesel business that is organized to use our extraction technology to convert waste cooking oil and grease into a biodiesel fuel ingredient that we intend to sell to biodiesel fuel producers. Our biodiesel business is designed to eliminate environmental issues associated with disposing of waste cooking oil and grease. We are expanding our strategy beyond our current technology and positioning the Company to find new ways to produce biofuels feedstock to gain a share of forecasted growth in demand for biofuels.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our discussion and analysis of our financial conditions and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of financial statements requires managers to make estimates and disclosures on the date of the financial statements. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to revenue recognition. We use authoritative pronouncements, historical experience, and other assumptions as the basis for making judgments. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

 

Going Concern

 

The consolidated financial statements contained in this report have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. Going concern contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business over a reasonable length of time. We have incurred losses since inception and have negative cash flows from operations. For the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, we incurred net losses of $708,566 and $833,129, respectively, and we have a stockholders’ deficit of $2,554,760 as of October 31, 2011. Our future is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing and upon future successful development and marketing of our products. We recently raised funds through the sale of convertible notes to an investor and by borrowing under an existing secured loan agreement. We are pursuing the sale of additional convertible notes. Although we plan to pursue additional financing, there can be no assurance that we will be able to secure such financing or obtain financing on terms beneficial to us. Failure to secure such financing may result in our inability to continue as a going concern.

 

The consolidated financial statements contained in this report do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classifications of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event we cannot continue in existence.

 

Stock-Based Employee Compensation

 

The Company adopted ASC 718-10. This accounting guidance requires companies to expense the value of employee stock options and similar awards and applies to all outstanding and vested stock-based awards.

 

In computing the impact, the fair value of each option is estimated on the date of grant based on the Black-Scholes options-pricing model utilizing certain assumptions for a risk free interest rate; volatility; and expected remaining lives of the awards. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of share-based payment awards represent management’s best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management judgment. As a result, if factors change and the Company uses different assumptions, the Company’s stock-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future. In addition, the Company is required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and only recognize expense for those shares expected to vest. In estimating the Company’s forfeiture rate, the Company analyzed its historical forfeiture rate, the remaining lives of unvested options, and the amount of vested options as a percentage of total options outstanding. If the Company’s actual forfeiture rate is materially different from its estimate, or if the Company reevaluates the forfeiture rate in the future, the stock-based compensation expense could be significantly different from what we have recorded in the current period. Equity based compensation expense was $0 during the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010.

Comparison of the Year Ended October 31, 2011 and 2010

 

Net sales.  Net sales for operations were $0 for the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010.

 

Selling, general, and administrative.   Selling, general, and administrative expenses was $468,505 for the year ended October 31, 2011 compared to $461,849 for the year ended October 31, 2010. The increase of $6,656 or 1.4% was primarily due to expenses for salaries, marketing and professional fees for the GEM product line.

 

Operating loss.   We incurred an operating loss of $468,505 for the year ended October 31, 2011, compared to an operating loss of $461,849 for the year ended October 31, 2010. The increase of $6,656 or 1.4% was primarily due to expenses for salaries, marketing and professional fees for the GEM product line.

 

Beneficial Conversion Feature Expense. Beneficial conversion features expense was $112,735 for the year ended October 31, 2011, compared to $269,608 for the year ended October 31, 2010. The decrease of $156,873 or 58.2% was primarily due to the reduction in new borrowings during the current twelve- month period.

 

Interest expense. Interest expense was $127,326 for the year ended October 31, 2011, compared to $101,675 for the year ended October 31, 2010. The increase of $25,651 or 25.2% was primarily due to our having a greater amount of outstanding borrowings during the current twelve- month period.

`

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We have financed our operations, acquisitions, debt service, and capital requirements through cash flows generated from debt financing and issuance of equity securities. Our working capital deficit at October 31, 2011 was $2,565,630 and at October 31, 2010 was $2,245,450. We had cash of $44,245 as of October 31, 2011, while we had cash of $4,446 as of October 31, 2010.

 

We used $259,701 of net cash in operating activities for the year ended October 31, 2011, compared to using $235,205 in the year ended October 31, 2010.

 

Net cash flows provided by investing activities was $0 for the year ended October 31, 2011 compared to $0 for the year ended October 31, 2010.

 

Net cash flows provided by financing activities were $335,500 for the year ended October 31, 2011, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $236,228 in the year ended October 31, 2010. The net cash provided by financing activities is from the proceeds from our notes payable, which are net of repayments, advances and sale of our common stock.

 

Loan Agreements

 

On November 29, 2006, we entered into two separate loan agreements with certain lenders that provided for the potential for us to borrow up to $1,000,000 under each loan agreement. Under the loan agreements, the lenders received convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amounts of $164,000, $537,955 and $264,625, respectively, for loans made prior to the November 29, 2006 loan agreements. As a result of subsequent agreements between the lenders, a single lender now holds both $1,000,000 loan agreements. The lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, make additional loans to us, up to an aggregate total of $2,000,000. Borrowings under the loan agreements bear interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum and are payable on demand. Outstanding principal and accrued interest is also convertible into shares of our common stock at a fixed conversion rate of $0.001 per share as a result of a May 2008 amendment to the loan agreements. In addition, the lender cannot convert any principal or interest to the extent that such conversion would require us to issue shares of our common stock in excess of our authorized and unissued shares of common stock. The notes are secured by a first priority security interest in all of our assets. By their terms, the holder of the notes may not convert the notes to the extent such conversion would cause the holder to have acquired a number of shares of common stock that would exceed 4.99% of our then outstanding common stock.  Since July 2009, third party investors have acquired $241,000 in principal under the loan agreement. We have reduced the amount of unpaid principal and interest under the loan agreement through issuances of our common stock in satisfaction of conversion requests.

On December 24, 2010, January 25, 2011 and February 25, 2011, we sold and issued convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amounts of $30,000, $40,000 and $30,000, respectively, to a certain investor. The notes mature on the two-year anniversary of the respective dates of issuance and accrue interest at an annual rate of ten percent. The notes are payable in full on the maturity dates unless previously converted into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $0.0001 per share. The $100,000 in aggregate proceeds was used to fund the development of our business along with subsequent advances we received from a third party lender.

 

Capital Requirements

 

The report of our independent accountants for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2011 states that we have incurred operating losses since inception and requires additional capital to continue operations, and that these conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

As of October 31, 2011, we had a working capital deficit of $2,565,630. Currently, we do not generate any revenues. To operate our biodiesel fuel ingredient production business, we need to construct or lease biodiesel plants and we will not generate any revenues from this business until we have established plants that are operational. The expected cost to build each biodiesel plant is $2.5 million and we do not have the capital to build such plants. In our green cleaning products business, we need to lease space, build it out to our specifications, and buy production equipment in order to begin producing cleaning products to sell. Alternatively, we may find a suitable third party manufacturer to produce our cleaning products. We are evaluating the alternatives and estimating their respective capital requirements. The expected cost to open our own production facility is at least $400,000, exclusive of lease costs. We raised $100,000 from the sale of shares of our restricted common stock to an investor and expect to raise the remaining funds needed through additional sales of convertible notes. If we cannot raise additional debt and/or equity capital, we will be unable to generate any revenues.

 

We believe that, as of the date of this report, our existing working capital and cash flows generated from operations will be insufficient to fund our plan of operations over the next 12 months, and accordingly, we will need to continue to obtain additional financing.

 

As set forth above, we have entered into a secured loan agreement with a third party lender, under which the lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, can lend to us up to $2,000,000. However, such loans are completely discretionary with the lender, and as of the date hereof, we have received no commitment from the lender to advance us additional funds.

 

In the event that our lenders do not advance us additional funds under the loan agreement and our investors do not purchase additional unsecured convertible notes, we would need to seek additional debt or equity financing, a strategic alliance, or a joint venture. Such additional financing, alliances, or joint venture opportunities might not be available to us, when and if needed, on acceptable terms or at all. If we are unable to obtain additional financing in sufficient amounts or on acceptable terms under such circumstances, our operating results and prospects could be adversely affected. In addition, any debt financings or significant capital expenditures require the written consent of our existing lenders.

 

We intend to retain any future earnings to retire debt, finance the expansion of our business and any necessary capital expenditures, and for general corporate purposes. The loan agreement with our lenders contains restrictions as to the payment of dividends.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

Board of Directors and Stockholders

Todays Alternative Energy Corporation

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Todays Alternative Energy Corporation (A Development Stage Enterprise) as of October 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statement of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended October 31, 2011 and for the period from November 1, 2007 (date of inception) to October 31, 2011. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our 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, we 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 principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of October 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended October 31, 2011 and for the period from November 1, 2007 (date of inception) to October 31, 2011, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that Todays Alternative Energy Corporation will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 1, the Company has incurred recurring operating losses and will have to obtain additional capital to sustain operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

TODAYS ALTERNATIVE ENERGY CORPORATION

(A DEVEOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

YEARS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2011 AND 2010

 

NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Nature of Business and History of Company

 

Todays Alternative Energy Corporation (“the Company”) has two primary opportunities that it is developing. The Company has a green cleaning products business that is organized to use its scientific formulations to manufacture and sell a new line of industrial strength environmentally friendly biodegradable cleaning products that contain natural non-toxic ingredients. The Company has a biodiesel business that is organized to use its extraction technology to convert waste cooking oil and grease into a biodiesel fuel feedstock and intends to use alternative means of producing biofuels. The Company’s biodiesel business is designed to eliminate environmental issues associated with disposing of waste cooking oil and grease.

 

Corporate Changes

 

On April 19, 2010, holders of the majority of the voting power of the outstanding stock of Bio-Solutions Manufacturing, Inc. as of April 16, 2010, voted in favor of changing the Company’s name to Todays Alternative Energy Corporation. On June 9, 2010, the Company filed a certificate of amendment with the Secretary of State of Nevada in order to effect the name change.

 

On May 20, 2011, the Company filed a certificate of amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada to effectuate a reverse stock split on a 1 to 20 basis. Each holder of common stock received 1 share of the Company’s common stock for each 20 shares of the Company’s common stock held. Fractional shares were rounded up to the nearest whole share. All per share numbers quoted herein are reflective of the 1:20 reverse split. All common stock and related information have been retroactively restated.

 

Development Stage Company

 

As a result of impairing the value of the Company’s intangible assets, at October 31, 2007, the Company began implementing new plans to enter the biodiesel fuel market on November 1, 2007. As a result, the Company is a development stage enterprise, as defined by Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification” or “ASC”) 915-10. The Company is devoting all of its present efforts in securing and establishing a new business, and its planned principle operations have not commenced, and, accordingly, no revenue has been derived during the organization period. From its inception of development stage through the date of these consolidated financial statements, the Company has not generated any revenues and has incurred significant operating expenses. Consequently, its operations are subject to all risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. For the period from November 1, 2007 (inception of development stage) through October 31, 2011, the Company has accumulated losses of $3,061,341.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. Going concern contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business over a reasonable length of time. The Company has incurred losses since inception and has negative cash flows from operations. For the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company has incurred net losses of $708,566 and $833,129, respectively, and has a stockholders’ deficit of $2,554,760 as of October 31, 2011. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing and upon future successful development and marketing of the Company’s products and services. Management is pursuing various sources of equity and debt financing. Although the Company plans to pursue additional financing, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure such financing or obtain financing on terms beneficial to the Company. Failure to secure such financing may result in the Company’s inability to continue as a going concern and the impairment of the recorded long lived assets.

 

As of October 31, 2011, the Company employees consist of its Chief Executive Officer. To conserve cash, minimize borrowing and minimize overhead costs, the Company is outsourcing certain administrative and operating activities under an arrangement that allows it to pay for the services with shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company continues to need to borrow cash from time to time in order to pay its operating costs while it seeks substantial financing needed to generate sales from its Biodiesel Division and Cleaning Division. The Company anticipates future losses from operations as a result of ongoing overhead expenses incurred while it attempts to resume selling activities.

 

These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classifications of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

 

F-7
 

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Bio Extraction Services, Inc. (“BESI”) and Guaranteed Enzyme Miracle Corporation (“GEM”). Significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements of the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the current year for comparative purposes.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the financial statement in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For the purpose of the accompanying consolidated financial statements, all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. At October 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had no cash equivalents.

 

Advertising

 

The Company charges the costs of advertising to expenses as incurred.  The Company charged $7,500 and $0 to operations for the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

 

Research and Development

 

All research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Third-party research and development costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved. Company-sponsored research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred. The Company incurred $58,430 and $13,217 in research and product development expenses for the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively and $71,647 from November 1, 2007 (inception of development stage) through October 31, 2011.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and trade receivables. The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with high credit quality institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit.

 

Stock-Based Employee Compensation

 

Effective for the year beginning January 1, 2006, the Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 718-10, Compensation (“ASC 718-10”). The Company made no employee stock-based compensation grants before December 31, 2005 and therefore has no unrecognized stock compensation related liabilities or expense unvested or vested prior to 2006.

 

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 220-10, “Comprehensive Income” (“ASC 220-10”). ASC 220-10 establishes standards for the reporting and displaying of comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a business during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owners sources. It includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. ASC 220-10 requires other comprehensive income (loss) to include foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities. The Company does not have any items of comprehensive income in the periods presented that are not already presented in the statement of operations.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”) which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statement or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between financial statements and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Temporary differences between taxable income reported for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes are insignificant, except basis difference related to certain debts.

 

Effective January 1, 2007 the Company adopted an amendment to the requirements of ASC 740. The amended standard prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.

 

ASC 740-10-25-5 “Income Taxes—Overall—Recognition—Basis Recognition Threshold”, (“Tax Position Topic”) provides guidance to address uncertainty in tax positions and clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold, i.e. “more-likely-than-not”, that the income tax positions must achieve before being recognized in the financial statements. In addition, the Tax Position Topic requires expanded annual disclosures, including a roll forward of the beginning and ending aggregate unrecognized tax benefits as well as specific detail related to tax uncertainties for which it is reasonably possible the amount of unrecognized tax benefit will significantly increase or decrease within twelve months.

 

F-8
 

 

As a result of implementing ASC 740, there has been no adjustment to the Company’s financial statements and the adoption of ASC 740 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2011 and 2010.

 

Net Loss Per Share

 

The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 260-10, Earnings Per Share ("ASC 260-10") specifying the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements of earnings per share information. Basic and diluted loss per share amounts are computed based on net loss divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Excluding the effect of Series B Preferred Stock, potentially dilutive shares of common stock realizable from the conversion of our convertible debentures of 3,009,424,511 and 1,754,391,452 at October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, are excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In December 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU (“Accounting Standards Update”) 2010-29, Business Combinations: Disclosure of Supplementary Proforma Information for Business Combinations, which amends ASC 805, Business Combinations. The amendments in this ASU affect any public entity as defined by ASC 805 that enters into business combinations that are material on an individual or aggregate basis. The amendments in this ASU 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 proforma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring proforma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported proforma 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 does not anticipate the adoption of ASU 2010-29, which is effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning on November 1, 2011, will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-28, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other: When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts, which amends ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. The amendments in this ASU 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 an 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. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of ASU 2010-28, which is effective for the Company on November 1, 2011, will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Early adoption is not permitted.

 

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs, which amends ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. This ASU represents the converged guidance of the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board (the Boards) on fair value measurement. The amendments (1) clarify the Boards’ intent regarding the application of existing fair value measurement guidance, (2) revise certain measurement guidance that changes or modifies a principle and (3) add disclosure requirements concerning the measurement uncertainty of level 3 measurements. The Boards concluded that the common requirements will result in greater comparability of fair value measurements presented and disclosed in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and are to be applied prospectively. Early application is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2011-04, which is effective for the Company on November 1, 2012, on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income. This ASU, which amends ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, allows an entity the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both options, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income and a total amount for comprehensive income. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. The amendments do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. The amendments made by ASU 2011-05 should be applied retrospectively and become effective for fiscal years (and interim periods within those years) beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of ASU 2011-05, which is effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning on November 1, 2012, will have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other: Testing Goodwill for Impairment. ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is “more likely than not” that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test as described in ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other . The ASU defines the more-likely-than-not threshold as having a likelihood of more than 50%. Under the amendments in this update, an entity is not required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of this ASU, which is effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning on November 1, 2012, will have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements

  a) On November 29, 2006, the Company entered into a loan agreement with certain existing third-party lenders and a new lender, pursuant to which the Company borrowed approximately $164,000 and certain outstanding debt obligations were amended and restated. Under the loan agreement, the existing lenders received amended and restated secured convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amounts of $537,955 and $264,625, respectively, and the new lender received a convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $164,000. Under the loan agreement and the notes, each lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, make additional loans to the Company, up to an aggregate total of $1,000,000 per lender. Each note was convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate equal to the lower of (a) $0.05 per share, or (b) seventy percent (70%) of the three day average of the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock immediately prior to conversion, although such conversions could not be less than $0.01 per share, in any circumstances. In May 2008, the conversion price was amended to provide a fixed conversion price of $0.001 per share. In addition, the note holders cannot convert any principal or interest under the notes to the extent that such conversion would require the Company to issue shares of its common stock in excess of its authorized and unissued shares of common stock.  The notes were transferred to a single entity.  Each note accrues interest at an annual rate of eight percent (8%) and is payable on demand. During the year ended October 31, 2011, the note holder converted $8,600 of note principal into 1,427,500 shares of Company common stock.

  b) On July 14, 2009, an unrelated third party investor acquired an interest in the November 29, 2006 loan agreement from the existing lender, since which the investor has made various conversions to the principal and interest outstanding.
     
  c) On May 26, 2010, unrelated third party investors acquired an interest in the November 29, 2006 loan agreement from the existing lender, since which the investors have made various conversions to the principal and interest outstanding.
     
  d) On December 24, 2010, the Company sold and issued a convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $30,000 to a certain investor. The note matures on the two-year anniversary of the date of issuance and accrues interest at an annual rate of ten percent (10%). The note is payable in full on the maturity date unless previously converted into shares of Company common stock at a conversion price of $0.0001 per share. The Company recognized and measured an aggregate of $30,000 of the proceeds, which is equal to the intrinsic value of the imbedded beneficial conversion feature, to additional paid in capital and a discount against the note issued, with the discount being amortized over the note’s two-year term. During the year ended October 31, 2011, the note holder converted $105 of note principal into 1,050,000 shares of Company common stock.
     
  e) On January 25, 2011, the Company sold and issued a convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $40,000 to a certain investor. The note matures on the two-year anniversary of the date of issuance and accrues interest at an annual rate of ten percent (10%). The note is payable in full on the maturity date unless previously converted into shares of Company common stock at a conversion price of $0.0001 per share. The Company recognized and measured an aggregate of $40,000 of the proceeds, which is equal to the intrinsic value of the imbedded beneficial conversion feature, to additional paid in capital and a discount against the note issued, with the discount being amortized over the note’s two-year term.
     
  f) On February 25, 2011, the Company sold and issued a convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $30,000 to a certain investor. The note matures on the two-year anniversary of the date of issuance and accrues interest at an annual rate of ten percent (10%). The note is payable in full on the maturity date unless previously converted into shares of Company common stock at a conversion price of $0.0001 per share. The Company recognized and measured an aggregate of $30,000 of the proceeds, which is equal to the intrinsic value of the imbedded beneficial conversion feature, to additional paid in capital and a discount against the note issued, with the discount being amortized over the note’s two-year term.
     
  g) On October 7, 2011, unrelated third party investors acquired an interest in the November 29, 2006 loan agreement from the existing lender, since which an investor has converted $3,100 of note principal outstanding into 3,100,000 shares of Company common stock.

 

Beneficial conversion feature expenses of $112,735 and $269,608 were recorded during the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, all of which were attributed the beneficial conversion feature with this loan agreement. The notes are secured by a first priority security interest in all of the assets of the Company.

 

NOTE 6 - EQUITY TRANSACTIONS

 

In connection with the October 31, 2008 closing of the transaction for the change in domicile from New York to Nevada, the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the surviving Nevada corporation are now the articles and bylaws of the Company. The new articles of incorporation have increased the Company’s authorized capitalization to 1,010,000,000 shares of which 1,000,000,000 shares are authorized as common stock, par value $0.00001 per share and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.00001 per share.

 

Preferred Stock

 

The Company has authorized 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The Company’s board of directors is expressly authorized to provide for the issue of all or any of the shares of the preferred stock in one or more series, and to fix the number of shares and to determine or alter for each such series, such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such designations, preferences, and relative, participating, optional, or other rights and such qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof, as shall be adopted by the board of directors and as may be permitted by law

 

On July 25, 2008, the Company created a series of preferred stock of the Company known as Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share. In connection with the change in domicile, the par value was reduced to $0.00001 per share on October 31, 2008. The Series A Preferred Stock is not convertible. Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock do not have any preferential dividend or liquidation rights. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock are not redeemable. On all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of the common stock, including, without limitation, the election of directors, a holder of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to the number of votes on such matters equal to the product of (a) the number of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder, (b) the number of issued and outstanding shares of Company common stock, as of the record date for the vote, or, if no such record date is established, as of the date such vote is taken or any written consent of stockholders is solicited, and (c) 0.0002.

 

On August 1, 2008, the Company issued 10,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to Patricia Spreitzer, the Company’s former Chief Financial Officer in consideration of accrued and unpaid salary. The Company deemed the stated value of the Series A Preferred Stock to be $1.00 per share. Ms. Spreitzer subsequently sold the 10,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock on December 20, 2010 in a private transaction with Len Amato, our current President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

 

F-11
 

 

On April 29, 2009, the Company created a series of preferred stock of the Company known as Series B Preferred Stock, par value $0.00001 per share. The Series B Preferred Stock has a stated value of $1.00 per share and is convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion rate equal to the average of the Per Shares Market Values (as defined) during the 10 trading days immediately prior to conversion. No holder of Series B Preferred Stock may convert more than 1,000 shares of its Series B Preferred Stock in any given month and collectively the holders of Series B Preferred Stock may not convert more than 4,000 shares in any calendar month. In addition, holders of the Series B Preferred Stock may not convert such shares into common stock if as a result of such conversion the holder would hold in excess of 4.99% shares of Company issued and outstanding common stock.

Stock incentive plans

 

On April 19, 2002, the Company adopted the 2002 Omnibus Securities Plan (the “2002 Plan”). Under the plan, the Company may grant options or issue stock to selected employees, directors, and consultants up to 30,000 shares. The exercise price of each option is at the discretion of the Board of Directors but cannot be less than 85% of the fair market value of a share at the date of grant (100% of fair market value for 10% stockholders). The vesting period of each option granted is also at the discretion of the Board of Directors, but each option granted shall vest at a rate of no less than 20% per year from date of grant.

The options vested based on the number of gallons of bio-diesel alternative fuel that was converted by the Company’s bio-converter from sites introduced directly or indirectly by the consultant.

NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES

 

The provisions for income taxes for the year ended October 31, 2011 and 2010 consisted of the following:

 

   2011   2010 
Provision benefit for income taxes at statutory federal rate  $(260,000)  $(308,000)
Permanent timing differences   41,000    149,000 
Valuation allowance change   219,000    159,000 
Net Income Tax Provision  $-   $- 

 

The reported provision for income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate of 34% to the loss before income taxes as follows:

 

   October 31, 2011   October 31, 2010 
Federal income taxes at statutory rate   (34)%   (34)%
State tax rate, net of federal income tax   (3)   (3)
Permanent difference   16    18 
Valuation allowance   21    19 
Effective income tax rate   0%   0%

 

F-13
 

 

Due to net operating losses and the uncertainty of realization, no tax benefit has been recognized for operating losses. The Company’s ability to utilize its net operating loss carry forwards is uncertain and thus a valuation reserve has been provided against the Company’s net deferred tax assets. The Company has not filed their federal or state income tax returns for several years.

 

At October 31, 2011, the Company has estimated its unused net operating losses of approximately $5,600,000 (which will expire by 2031) that may be applied, against future taxable income.

 

Due to the changes in ownership over the years for the various acquisitions, debt conversions and equity financings, the Company may have triggered a Section 382 limitation on the utilization of such net operating loss carryforwards. The Company has not performed such an evaluation to determine whether the net operating loss carryforwards have been limited.

 

The Company has not filed federal or state income tax returns for several years.

 

NOTE 8 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

During 2009, there were 55 shares of common stock issued to related parties, management and employees of the Company for services rendered. The expense for such shares issued was recorded using the then fair market value of the shares issued.

 

In August 2009, the Company repaid a $19,500 advance made by a shareholder by exchanging 9,750 shares valued at $87,750 based on the prevailing market price of the shares at the time, with $68,250 of the shares attributed to interest expense and late charges.

 

On November 9, 2010, David Bennett, the former President and on October 31, 2010, Patricia Spreitzer, the former Chief Financial Officer of the Company, respectively, voluntarily forgave their accrued salaries totaling $394,679 and accrued expenses totaling $1,666 was forgiven by the President, both of which were reclassified to equity as contributed capital. Additionally, the Company agreed to issue the former Chief Financial Officer 15 shares of common stock valued at $1.

 

On November 9, 2010, Len Amato was appointed as the Company’s Chairman of the Board of Directors, President, and Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Treasurer.

NOTE 9 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Operating Leases

 

In October 2010, the Company negotiated a 64 month lease agreement for a 14,833 square foot facility in San Antonio, Texas. The lease contains real estate tax and operating escalations and a termination option after the third year. Monthly rental payments start five months after completion of leasehold improvements to the facility and receipt of a certificate of occupancy. In June 2011, the landlord informed the Company of an approximately $100,000 increase in anticipated costs to build the manufacturing facility.  The Company rejected the landlord’s revised plans and does not plan to go forward with the lease on the present terms. The landlord objects to the Company’s rejection of the new lease terms and seeks to go forward with the lease.  The Company is currently reviewing other options on how to proceed with growing the GEM products business.

 

Rent expense for the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010 was $0.

 

Payroll Taxes

 

At October 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company is delinquent with remitting payroll taxes of $70,182, including estimated penalties and interest. The Company has recorded the delinquent payroll taxes, which are included in accrued expenses on the balance sheet. Although the Company has not entered into any formal repayment agreements with the respective tax authorities, management plans to make payment as funds become available. Penalties and interest amounts are subject to increase based on a number of factors that can cause the estimated liability to increase further.

 

Employment agreements

 

On October 30, 2007, the Company entered into employment agreements with David Bennett and Patricia Spreitzer, the Company’s President and Chief Financial Officer. Each agreement was for an initial term of three years and provided for an annual base salary during the term of the agreement of $75,000 and $54,000, respectively, provided, however, that the base salary be increased to $150,000 and $100,000 per annum, respectively, upon closing of a private placement of the Company’s debt or equity securities resulting in gross proceeds of at least $4 million. Each officer was to receive performance based bonuses upon attainment of certain gross revenue targets specified in each employment agreement. Each officer was also to receive stock grants of 10, 13, 15 and 18 shares of the Company’s common stock in each of fiscal 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively. The Company had agreed to grant each officer options to purchase 200 shares of Company common stock with exercise prices ranging from $3,400 to $40,000, which options would vest upon the attainment of certain gross revenue targets, as more specifically set forth in the employment agreements. The granting of the options was subject to the Company’s adoption of a stock option plan for such purpose. These options were not granted as of October 31, 2011.

 

F-14
 

 

Each employment agreement also contained the following material provisions: (i) reimbursement for all reasonable travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with employment; (ii) three (3) weeks paid vacation leave; (iii) medical, dental and life insurance benefits; (iv) a severance payment of twelve (12) month’s salary at the then-applicable base salary rate in the event that the Company terminates the officer’s employment without cause or if the officer’s employment is terminated due to death or disability; and (v) 24 month non-compete/non solicitation terms.

 

David Bennett and Patricia Spreitzer resigned as the Company’s President and Chief Financial Officer on November 9, 2010 and October 31, 2010, respectively and on November 9, 2010, the Company’s board of directors appointed Len Amato who will serve as the Company’s President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer and Director.

 

Lawsuit

 

On October 20, 2011, Indeglia & Carney (“Indeglia”) commenced an action in the Superior Court of California against the Company alleging causes of actions for breach of contract and account stated arising from legal fees allegedly owed Indeglia by the Company. On December 9, 2011, Indeglia filed a Request for Entry of Default with the Court. The Company disputes the allegations of the complaint, opposes the Request for Entry of Default and intends to vigorously defend the action.

 

NOTE 10 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

Fair Value Measurements under GAAP clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. Under the standard, fair value measurements are separately disclosed by level within the fair value hierarchy. It only applies to accounting pronouncements that already require or permit fair value measures, except for standards that relate to share-based payments.

 

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.

 

To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment.  In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy.  In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is disclosed and is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

The carrying value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepayments, accounts payable, short-term borrowings (including convertible notes payable), and other current assets and liabilities approximate fair value because of their short-term maturity. All other significant financial assets, financial liabilities and equity instruments of the Company are either recognized or disclosed in the consolidated financial statements together with other information relevant for making a reasonable assessment of future cash flows, interest rate risk and credit risk. Where practicable the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities have been determined and disclosed; otherwise only available information pertinent to fair value has been disclosed.

 

As of October 31, 2011 and 2010, there were no financial assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

 

NOTE 11 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

Since October 31, 2011, the Company issued an aggregate of 2,350,000 shares of common stock upon conversion of convertible promissory notes.

 

On January 12, 2012, the Company received the remaining balance of $50,000 relating to the Stock Purchase Agreement discussed in Note 2.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act ("Exchange Act") of 1934, the Company's management, consisting of Len Amato, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (“CEO/CFO”) made an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the year ended October 31, 2011. Based upon that evaluation, our CEO/CFO concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting are ineffective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our CEO/CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of a Company's principal executive and principal financial officer and effected by a Company's Board of Directors, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

 

We conducted an evaluation, with the participation of our CEO/CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, as of October 31, 2011, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities Exchange Commission's rules and forms, including to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our CEO/CFO concluded that as of October 31, 2011, our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses described below.

 

During the course of the preparation of our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2011, we identified certain material weaknesses relating to our internal controls over financial reporting. We have limited resources and only one employee, which inherently limits our ability to properly segregate duties. This internal control deficiency may also constitute deficiencies in our disclosure controls.

 

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 will be met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events.

 

Remediation of Material Weaknesses

 

Our CEO/CFO is in the process of implementing a more effective system of controls, procedures, and other changes in the areas of accounting for equity transactions, document control, account analysis, and reconciliation to insure that information required to be disclosed in this annual report on Form 10-K has been recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately. Our management acknowledges the existence of this problem, and intends to develop procedures to address them to the extent possible given limitations in financial and manpower resources.

 

Among the changes needed to be implemented is the hiring of employees, engagement of consultants and appointment of members of our board of directors who will enable us to adequately segregate duties and fulfill the functions performed by independent members of our board of directors.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and includes those policies and procedures that:

 

17
 

 

·Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;

 

·Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and 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 the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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. 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. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

 

We assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2011. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.

 

Based on its assessment, we concluded that, as of October 31, 2011, our internal control over financial reporting is not effective based on those criteria.

 

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Our report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, PROMOTERS AND CONTROL PERSONS; CORPORATE GOVERNANCE; COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT

 

Executive Officer and Directors

 

Our executive officers and directors, the positions held by them, and their ages are as follows:

 

Name   Age   Position
         
Len Amato   62   Chairman of the Board of Directors, President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Treasurer

 

Len Amato. Mr. Amato was appointed as the Company’s Chairman of the Board of Directors, President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Treasurer on November 9, 2010. From 2007 to October 2010, Mr. Amato was managing member of Interstellar Holdings, LLC, a Connecticut-based investment banking firm that has provided the Company with financing. From 2002 to 2010, Mr. Amato was president and a board member of CancerCare of Connecticut, a nonprofit organization that provides free professional support services to anyone affected by cancer. Mr. Amato serves as a committee chairman for The Michael Bolton Charities, Inc. Mr. Amato received a bachelor of arts in 1971 from Fairfield University in Fairfield, Connecticut. Mr. Amato was appointed to the Company's board based on his over twenty years experience as a manager, owner and investor in several successful businesses, including having grown businesses from the start-up stage through sale to third parties.

 

Board of Directors, Board Meetings and Committees

 

Our board of directors held no formal meetings during the most recently completed fiscal year. All proceedings of the board of directors were conducted by resolutions consented to in writing by all the directors and filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the directors. Such resolutions consented to in writing by the directors entitled to vote on that resolution at a meeting of the directors are, according to the corporate laws of the State of Nevada and our bylaws, as valid and effective as if they had been passed at a meeting of the directors duly called and held.

 

The Board of Directors has a standing Compensation Committee. We do not have either an audit committee or a nominating committee. It is the view of the board of directors that it is appropriate to not have any of these committees since they are not required to maintain its listing on the OTC Bulletin Board, since it only has one director who would serve to act as the committee in any event, and due to the additional and unnecessary costs associated with administering the committees.

 

The former members of our Compensation Committee, David Bennett and Patricia Spreitzer, resigned on November 9, 2010 and October 31, 2010, respectively. To date, we have not filled the vacancies of the Compensation Committee. Len Amato, our sole officer and director carries out the responsibilitites of the Compensation Committee. The basic responsibility of the Compensation Committee is to review the performance and development of our management in achieving corporate goals and objectives and to assure that our senior executives are compensated effectively in a manner consistent with our strategy, competitive practice, and the requirements of the appropriate regulatory bodies. Toward that end, the Committee oversees, reviews, and administers all compensation, equity, and employee benefit plans and programs.

 

In carrying out its purpose, the Committee will have the following responsibilities and duties:

 

  · Review annually and approve our compensation strategy to ensure that our employees are rewarded appropriately for their contributions to our growth and profitability.
     
  · Review annually and approve corporate goals and objectives relevant to executive compensation and evaluate performance in light of those goals.
     
  · Review annually and determine the individual elements of total compensation for the Chief Executive Officer and all other officers, and communicate to stockholders the factors and criteria on which the Chief Executive Officer and all other executive officers’ compensation for the last year was based.
     
  · Approve all special perquisites, special cash payments, and other special compensation and benefit arrangements for our officers.
     
  · Review and recommend compensation for non-employee members of the board, including but not limited to the following elements:  retainer, meeting fees, committee fees, committee chair fees, equity or stock compensation, benefits, and perquisites.
     
  · With sole and exclusive authority, make and approve stock option grants and other discretionary awards under our stock option or other equity incentive plans to all persons who are board members or officers.

 

19
 

 

  · Grant stock options and other discretionary awards under our stock option or other equity incentive plans to all other eligible individuals in our service.
     
  · Amend the provisions of our stock option or other equity incentive plans, to the extent authorized by the board, and make recommendations to the board with respect to incentive compensation and equity-based plans.
     
  · Oversee and periodically review the operation of all of our employee benefit plans, including, but not limited to, our stock option and other equity incentive plans. Responsibility for day-to-day administration, including the preparation and filing of all government reports and the preparation and delivery of all required employee materials and communications, will be performed by our personnel.
     
  · Ensure that the annual incentive compensation plan is administered in a manner consistent with our compensation strategy and the terms of such plan, including but not limited to the following:  participation, target annual incentive awards, corporate financial goals, actual awards paid to officers, total funds reserved for payment under the plan, and potential qualification under IRS Code Section 162(m).
     
  · Review matters related to management performance, compensation, and succession planning (including periodic review and approval of Chief Executive Officer and other officer succession planning) and executive development for executive staff.
     
  · Approve separation packages and severance benefits for officers to the extent that the packages are outside the ordinary plan limits.
     
  · Have full access to our executives and personnel as necessary to carry out its responsibilities.
     
  · Obtain such data or other resources as it deems necessary to perform its duties, including, but not limited to, obtaining external consultant reports or published salary surveys, and engaging independent compensation consultants and other professionals to assist in the design, formulation, analysis, and implementation of compensation programs for our officers and other key employees.
     
  · Have responsibility for the review and approval of all reports and summaries of compensation policies and decisions as may be appropriate for operational purposes or as may be required under applicable law.
     
  · Perform any other activities consistent with the Compensation Committee charter, our bylaws, and governing law as the Committee or the board deems necessary or appropriate.
     
  · Review the Committee Charter from time to time and recommend any changes to the board.
     
  · Report to the Board on the major items covered at each Committee meeting.

 

During the last fiscal year, there were no meetings of the Compensation Committee.

 

We do not have any defined policy or procedure requirements for stockholders to submit recommendations or nominations for directors. Our board of directors believes that, given the early stages of our development, a specific nominating policy would be premature and of little assistance until our business operations develop to a more advanced level. We do not currently have any specific or minimum criteria for the election of nominees to our board of directors and we do not have any specific process or procedure for evaluating such nominees. Our board of directors assesses all candidates, whether submitted by management or stockholders, and makes recommendations for election or appointment.

 

Family Relationships

 

There are no family relationships between or among any of the current directors, executive officers or persons nominated or charged by the Company to become directors or executive officers.

 

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

 

To the Company’s knowledge, during the past ten (10) years, none of the Company’s directors, executive officers, promoters, control persons, or nominees has been:

 

  · the subject of any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time;
     
  · convicted in a criminal proceeding or is subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses);

 

20
 

 

  · subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; or
     
  · found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law

 

Director Independence

 

We do not believe that our sole director is an “independent director,” as that term is defined by listing standards of the national exchanges and SEC rules, including the rules relating to the independence standards of an audit committee and the non-employee director definition of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act .

 

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

 

Although we have not adopted a formal policy on whether the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions should be separate or combined, we have traditionally determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to partially combine these roles. Due to the small size of the Company, we believe it is currently most effective to have the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions partially combined.

 

The Company currently has one full time director, Len Amato, who also serves as the company's Chief Executive Officer. The Company is actively seeking other qualified individuals to serve on the Company's Board of Directors. At this time, the Company does not have Directors and Officers liability insurance which has been a deterring factor in seeking other qualified directors. The full director, as CEO of the Company is actively involved in oversight of the Company's day to day activities.

 

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our directors, executive officers, and stockholders holding more than 10% of our outstanding common stock, to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in beneficial ownership of our common stock. Executive officers, directors and greater-than-10% stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. No reports were furnished to us for the period ended October 31, 2011, and to our knowledge, all Section 16(a) reports were filed by our executive officers, directors and greater-than-10% stockholders on a timely basis.

 

Code of Ethics

 

We have adopted a code of ethics that applies to the principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer. We will provide to any person without charge, upon request, a copy of our code of ethics. Requests may be directed to our principal executive offices at 191 Post Road West, Westport, Connecticut 06880.
