Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Report contains forward-looking statements. For this purpose, any statements contained in this Report that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking information includes statements relating to future actions, prospective products, future performance or results of current or anticipated products, sales and marketing efforts, costs and expenses, interest rates, outcome of contingencies, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, business strategies, cost savings, objectives of management, and other matters. You can identify forward-looking statements by those that are not historical in nature, particularly those that use terminology such as "may," "will," "should," "expects," "anticipates," "contemplates," "estimates," "believes," "plans," "projected," "predicts," "potential," or "continue" or the negative of these similar terms. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a "safe harbor" for forward-looking information to encourage companies to provide prospective information about themselves without fear of litigation so long as that information is identified as forward-looking and is accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the information.

 

These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that we cannot predict. In evaluating these forward-looking statements, you should consider various factors, including the following: (a) those risks and uncertainties related to general economic conditions, (b) whether we are able to manage our planned growth efficiently and operate profitable operations, (c) whether we are able to generate sufficient revenues or obtain financing to sustain and grow our operations, (d) whether we are able to successfully fulfill our primary requirements for cash, which are explained below under "Liquidity and Capital Resources". We assume no obligation to update forward-looking statements, except as otherwise required under the applicable federal securities laws.

 

Overview

 

The Company was organized pursuant to the laws of the State of Nevada on August 18, 1998, under the name "Design by Robin, Inc.," for the primary purpose of designing, manufacturing and marketing items of women's and girl's apparel.

 

During 1998 and 1999, we offered a minimum of 200,000 and a maximum of 500,000 of our shares of common stock at $0.10 per share. We closed on the offering in June 1999, selling 200,000 shares for gross proceeds of $20,000. These proceeds were used to design and manufacture clothing. These operations were unsuccessful and were abandoned in 2000.

 

Effective May 14, 2001, we changed our name from "Design by Robin, Inc. to "Neosphere Technologies, Inc."

 

On May 24, 2001, we entered into a Plan and Agreement of Reorganization (the "Reorganization Agreement") with Globalnet Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Globalnet"), whereby we were to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Globalnet. This Reorganization Agreement was retroactively rescinded on March 30, 2002 by mutual consent of the parties and the stock of the subsidiary was returned to the previous owners. All shares issued under the Reorganization Agreement were returned and cancelled, except for 85,728 pre-split shares, which were cancelled on August 8, 2006.

 

Effective July 5, 2004, we changed our name from Neosphere Technologies, Inc. to our present name, "Microsmart Devices, Inc.," and we effected a reverse split of our outstanding shares of common stock on a basis of one share for 35. All computations herein take into account this reverse split.

 

 On November 8, 2005, we filed Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation with the State of Nevada, to among other things, increase our authorized capital stock from 3,500,000 shares to 110,000,000 shares, par value $0.001 per share, of which 10,000,000 shares are designated as preferred stock. The increase in capitalization and the addition of a class of preferred stock was thought necessary to ensure that we had the flexibility to issue shares of various classes, and allow us more flexibility in structuring acquisitions, reorganizations and mergers.

 

 Effective August 7, 2006, we declared a dividend of three for one on our outstanding common stock. All computations herein take into account this dividend.

 

Business

 

We were originally focused on becoming involved in designing, manufacturing and marketing women's and girl's apparel. These activities were unsuccessful and were abandoned in 2000. Since such time, we have conducted virtually no business other than organizational matters and filing our registration statement and periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission" or the "SEC"). We have abandoned our business plan and are now seeking an operating company with which to merge or to acquire.

 

We are now deemed to be a blank check company. The SEC defines those companies as "any development stage company that is issuing a penny stock, within the meaning of Section 3 (a)(51) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and that has no specific business plan or purpose, or has indicated that its business plan is to merge with an unidentified company or companies." Under SEC Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), we also qualify as a "shell company," because we have no or nominal assets (other than cash) and no or nominal operations. Many states have enacted statutes, rules and regulations limiting the sale of securities of "blank check" companies in their respective jurisdictions. Management does not intend to undertake any efforts to cause a market to develop in our securities, either debt or equity, until we have successfully concluded a business combination. We intend to comply with the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for so long as we are subject to those requirements provided that we are able to obtain the funds from our principal shareholder or others to pay for effecting such compliance.

 

Our current business plan is to: (i) consider guidelines of industries in which we may have an interest; (ii) adopt a business plan regarding engaging in the business of any selected industry; and (iii) commence such operations through funding and/or the acquisition of a "going concern" that is engaged in any industry selected. Accordingly, when and if we will select either an industry or business in which to engage in or complete an acquisition of any kind is presently unknown, and will depend upon many factors, including but not limited to, those that are outlined below.

 

Although we are not currently engaged in any substantive business activity, we have had preliminary discussions with other companies concerning a possible transaction. In our present form, we may be deemed to be a vehicle to acquire or merge with a business or company. The commencement of any business opportunity will be preceded by the consideration and adoption of a business plan. We do not intend to restrict our search for business opportunities to any particular business or industry, and the areas in which we will seek out business opportunities or acquisitions, reorganizations or mergers may include, but will not be limited to, the fields of high technology, manufacturing, natural resources, service, research and development, communications, transportation, insurance, brokerage, finance and all medically related fields, among others. We recognize that the number of suitable potential business ventures that may be available to us will be extremely limited, and may be restricted, as to acquisitions, reorganizations and mergers, to entities who desire to avoid what such entities may deem to be the adverse factors related to an initial public offering ("IPO") as a method of going public. The most prevalent of these factors include substantial time requirements, legal and accounting costs, the inability to obtain an underwriter who is willing to publicly offer and sell shares, the lack of or the inability to obtain the required financial statements for such an undertaking, limitations on the amount of dilution to public investors in comparison to the stockholders of any such entities, along with other conditions or requirements imposed by various federal and state securities laws. Amendments to Form 8-K by the Commission regarding shell companies and transactions with shell companies require the filing of all information about an acquired company that would have been required to have been filed had any such company filed a Form 10 Registration Statement with the Commission, along with required audited, interim and proforma financial statements, within four business days of the closing of any such transaction. These amendments to Form 8-K may eliminate many of the perceived advantages of these types of transactions. These types of transactions are customarily referred to as "reverse mergers" in which the acquired company's shareholders become controlling shareholders in the acquiring company and the acquiring company becomes the successor to the business operations of the acquired company. These regulations also deny the use of Form S-8 for the registration of securities of a shell company, and limit the use of this Form to a reorganized shell company until the expiration of 60 days from when any such entity is no longer considered to be a shell company. This prohibition could further restrict opportunities for us to acquire companies that may already have stock option plans in place that cover numerous employees. In such an instance, there may be no exemption from registration for the issuance of securities in any business combination to these employees, thereby necessitating the filing of a registration statement with the Commission to complete any such reorganization, and incurring the time and expense costs that are normally avoided by reverse reorganizations.

 

Any of these types of transactions, regardless of the particular prospect, would require us to issue a substantial number of shares of our common stock, that could amount to as much as 95% or more of our outstanding voting securities following the completion of any such transaction; accordingly, investments in any such private enterprise, if available, would be much more favorable than any investment in our company.

 

Management intends to consider a number of factors prior to making any decision as to whether to participate in any specific business endeavor, none of which may be determinative or provide any assurance of success. These may include, but will not be limited to, as applicable, an analysis of the quality of the particular business or entity's management personnel; the anticipated acceptability of any new products or marketing concepts that any such business or company may have; the merit of any such business' or company's technological changes; the present financial condition, projected growth potential and available technical, financial and managerial resources of any such business or company; working capital, history of operations and future prospects; the nature of present and expected competition; the quality and experience of any such company's management services and the depth of its management; the business or the company's potential for further research, development or exploration; risk factors specifically related to the business or company's operations; the potential for growth, expansion and profit of the business or company; the perceived public recognition or acceptance of the company or the business products, services, trademarks and name identification; and numerous other factors which are difficult, if not impossible, to properly or accurately quantify or analyze. Furthermore, the results of operations of any specific business or company may not necessarily be indicative of what may occur in the future, by reason of changing market strategies, plant or product expansion, changes in product emphasis, future management personnel and changes in innumerable other factors. Also, in the case of a new business venture or one that is in a research and development mode, the risks will be substantial, and there will be no objective criteria to examine the effectiveness, or the abilities of its management or its business objectives. Additionally, a firm market for its products or services may yet need to be established, and with no past track record, the profitability of any such enterprise will be unproven, and cannot be predicted with any certainty.

 

Our management will attempt to meet personally with management and key personnel of the business or company providing any potential business opportunity afforded to us, visit and inspect material facilities, obtain independent analysis or verification of information provided and gathered, check references of management and key personnel and conduct other reasonably prudent measures calculated to ensure a reasonably thorough review of any particular business opportunity; however, due to time constraints of our management, and the lack of available funds for these purposes, these activities may be limited. We are unable to predict the time as to when and if we may actually participate in any specific business endeavor. We anticipate that proposed business ventures will be made available to us through personal contacts of directors, executive officers and principal stockholders, professional advisors, broker dealers in securities, venture capital personnel, members of the financial community and others who may present unsolicited proposals. In certain cases, we may agree to pay a finder's fee or to otherwise compensate the persons who submit a potential business endeavor in which our Company eventually participates. Such persons may include our directors, executive officers and beneficial owners of our securities or their affiliates. In that event, such fees may become a factor in negotiations regarding any potential venture and, accordingly, may present a conflict of interest for such individuals. Management does not presently intend to acquire or merge with any business enterprise in which any member has a prior ownership interest.

 

Our Company's present and former directors and executive officers have not used any particular consultants, advisors or finders on a regular basis.

 

Although we currently have no plans to do so, depending on the nature and extent of services rendered, we may compensate members of management in the future for services that they may perform for our company. Because we currently have extremely limited resources, and because we are unlikely to have any significant resources until we have determined a business or enterprise to engage in or have completed a merger or acquisition, management expects that any such compensation would take the form of an issuance of our common stock to these persons; this would have the effect of further diluting the holdings of our other stockholders. There are presently no agreements or understandings between us and members of management respecting such compensation. Any shares issued to members of our management, persons who may be deemed to be our "promoters" or "founders," or our "affiliates," could be required to be resold under an effective registration statement filed with the Commission because subparagraph (i) of Rule 144 ("Rule 144") promulgated by the Commission makes Rule 144 unavailable to companies such as ours that are deemed to be "shell" or "blank check" companies. This provision could further inhibit our ability to complete the acquisition of any business or complete any merger or reorganization with another entity, where finder's or others may refuse to provide us with any introductions or to close any such transactions unless they are paid requested fees in cash or unless we agree to file a registration statement with the Commission that includes any shares that are issued to them. These expenses could limit potential acquisition candidates, especially those in need of cash resources, and could affect the number of shares that our shareholders retain following any such transaction, by reason of the increased expense.

 

Substantial fees are often paid in connection with the completion of all types of acquisitions, reorganizations or mergers, ranging from a small amount to as much as $600,000 or more. These fees are usually divided among promoters or founders or finders, after deduction of legal, accounting and other related expenses, and it is not unusual for a portion of these fees to be paid to members of management or to principal stockholders as consideration for their agreement to retire a portion of the shares of common stock owned by them or the loans extended by them to the Company. Management may actively negotiate or otherwise consent to the purchase of all or any portion of their common stock as a condition to, or in connection with, a proposed reorganization, merger or acquisition. It is not anticipated that any such opportunity will be afforded to other stockholders or that such other stockholders will be afforded the opportunity to approve or consent to any particular stock buy-out transaction. In the event that any such fees are paid, they may become a factor in negotiations regarding any potential acquisition or merger by our Company and, accordingly, may also present a conflict of interest for such individuals. We have no present arrangements or understandings respecting any of these types of fees or opportunities. Any of these types of fees that are paid in our common stock would not be resalable under Rule 144.

 

An aggregate of 848,391 shares, constituting all of our shares of common stock owned by our former sole director and executive officer, Mark L. Meriwether ("Meriwether"), are subject to a registration agreement letter (the "Registration Agreement") restricting the resale of such sales. An aggregate of 848,391Shares of common stock owned by our current principal stockholder, Crowther Holdings Ltd., a Turk and Caicos corporation ("Crowther") were purchased from Meriwether and are also subject to resale restrictions under the Registration Agreement. Also, neither Meriwether nor Crowther will be able to sell his or its shares under Rule 144.

 

Competition

 

Management believes that there are literally thousands of blank check or shell companies engaged in endeavors similar to those planned to be engaged in by us; many of these companies have substantial current assets and cash reserves. Competitors also include thousands of other publicly-held companies whose business operations have proven unsuccessful, and whose only viable business opportunity is that of providing a publicly-held vehicle through which a private entity may have access to the public capital markets. There is no reasonable way to predict the competitive position of our company or any other entity in the strata of these endeavors; however, our company, having limited assets and cash reserves, will no doubt be at a competitive disadvantage in competing with entities which have recently completed IPOs, have significant cash resources and have recent operating histories when compared with the complete lack of any substantive operations by us for the past decade.

 

Regulation and Taxation

 

The Investment Company Act of 1940 defines an "investment company" as an issuer, which is or holds itself out as being engaged primarily in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading of securities. While the Company does not intend to engage in such activities, the Company could become subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940 in the event the Company obtains or continues to hold a minority interest in a number of development stage enterprises. The Company could be expected to incur significant registration and compliance costs if required to register under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Accordingly, management will continue to review the Company's activities from time to time with a view toward reducing the likelihood the Company could be classified as an "investment company."

 

The Company intends to structure a merger or acquisition in such manner as to minimize federal and state tax consequences to the Company and to any target company.

 

Employees

 

The Company's only employee is its sole officer and director who will devote as much time as is necessary to carry out the affairs of the Company.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

Smaller reporting companies are not required to provide the information required by this Item 1A.

 

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

 

We have no unresolved staff comments.

 

Item 2. Properties

 

Our principal executive office is located at, 79 Meadow Street, Litchfield, Connecticut. Such office space is minimal and provided to us at no cost.

 

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

 

There are no pending legal proceedings to which the Company is a party or in which any director, officer or affiliate of the Company, any owner of record or beneficially of more than 5% of any class of voting securities of the Company, or security holder is a party adverse to the Company or has a material interest adverse to the Company. The Company's property is not the subject of any pending legal proceedings.

 

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures

 

None

 

 

PART II

 

Item 5. Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters and Small Business Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.

 

Market Information

 

Our common stock has been eligible to be traded on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board ("OTCBB") since June 10,1998 under the symbol "MCMV". There has been no active trading in the Company's securities, and there has been no bid or ask prices quoted.

 

The shares of our common stock owned by Meriwether and Crowther are subject to a Registration Agreement. In accordance with this Registration Agreement, neither Meriwether nor Crowther will be able to sell his or its holdings pursuant to Rule 144 in "routine trading transactions," because his or its public sales, if any, must be made pursuant to an effective registration statement filed with the Commission. Any person who acquires any of these securities in a private transaction from Meriwether or Crowther will be subject to the same resale requirements.

 

Holders

 

As of March 29, 2012, there were 50 stockholders of record of our common stock.

 

Dividends

 

We have not declared any cash dividends with respect to our common stock, and do not intend to declare dividends in the foreseeable future. The future dividend policy of our Company cannot be ascertained with any certainty, and if and until we determine to engage in any business or we complete any acquisition, reorganization or merger, no such policy will be formulated.

 

Equity Compensation Plans

 

We do not have any equity compensation plans.

 

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

 

None.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Forward-looking Statements

 

Statements made in this Annual Report which are not purely historical are forward-looking statements with respect to the goals, plan objectives, intentions, expectations, financial condition, results of operations, future performance and business of our Company, including, without limitation, (i) our ability to raise capital, and (ii) statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words "may", "would", "could", "should", "expects", "projects", "anticipates", "believes", "estimates", "plans", "intends", "targets" or similar expressions.

 

Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and important factors (many of which are beyond our control) that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements, including the following, general economic or industry conditions, nationally and/or in the communities in which we may conduct business, changes in the interest rate environment, legislation or regulatory requirements, conditions of the securities markets, our ability to raise capital, changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines, financial or political instability, acts of war or terrorism, other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory and technical factors affecting our Company's operations, products, services and prices.

 

Accordingly, results actually achieved may differ materially from expected results in these statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. We do not undertake, and specifically disclaim, any obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of such statements.

 

Plan of Operation

 

During the next 12 months, the Company intends to seek, investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire an interest in one or more business opportunities presented to it by persons or firms who or which desire to seek the perceived advantages of a publicly held corporation. At this time, the Company has no plan, proposal, agreement, understanding or arrangement to acquire or merge with any specific business or company, and the Company has not identified any specific business or company for investigation and evaluation. No member of management or promoter of the Company has had any material discussions with any other company with respect to any acquisition of that company.

 

The Company will not restrict its search to any specific business, industry or geographical location, and the Company may participate in a business venture of virtually any kind or nature.

 

The Company will have to obtain funds in one or more private placements to finance the operation of any acquired business. Persons purchasing securities in these placements and other shareholders will likely not have the opportunity to participate in the decision relating to any acquisition. The Company's proposed business is sometimes referred to as a "blind pool" because any investors will entrust their investment monies to the Company's management before they have a chance to analyze any ultimate use to which their money may be put. Consequently, the Company's potential success is heavily dependent on the Company's management, which will have virtually unlimited discretion in searching for and entering into a business opportunity. The officer and director of the Company may not have had any experience in the proposed business. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise any funds in private placements. In any private placement, management may purchase shares on the same terms as offered in the private placement.

 

Management anticipates that it will only participate in one potential business venture. This lack of diversification should be considered a substantial risk in investing in the Company because it will not permit the Company to offset potential losses from one venture against gains from another. The Company may seek a business opportunity with a firm which only recently commenced operations, or a developing company in need of additional funds for expansion into new products or markets, or seeking to develop a new product or service, or an established business which may be experiencing financial or operating difficulties and is in the need for additional capital which is perceived to be easier to raise by a public company. In some instances, a business opportunity may involve the acquisition or merger with a corporation which does not need substantial additional cash but which desires to establish a public trading market for its common stock. The Company may purchase assets and establish wholly owned subsidiaries in various business or purchase existing businesses as subsidiaries.

 

Results of Operations

 

Years Ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010

 

We had no revenues during the years ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

 

We had $0 in cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2011. We had a net loss of $61,885 for the year ended December 31, 2011, a net loss of $62,386 for the year ended December 31, 2010. General and administrative expenses for both years consisted primarily of legal and accounting expenses relating to our reporting requirements.

 

We have incurred a cumulative net loss of $394,839 for the period August 18, 1998 (inception) to December 31, 2011.

 

Liquidity

 

At December 31, 2011, we had no cash resources. In addition, the Company had a working capital deficiency and stockholders' deficiency of $223,409 at December 31, 2011.

 

During 2009, 2010 and 2011, Crowther, our principal stockholder advanced funds to the Company and paid expenses on behalf of the Company in the aggregate amount of $207,940 which is outstanding at December 31, 2011. These loans are unsecured, non-interest bearing and payable on demand. Crowther is not obligated to continue providing funding to the Company and may not be willing or able to continue to do so in the future.

 

On November 8, 2011, we issued a convertible promissory note to one accredited investor. The note is due on December 31, 2013, bears interest at the rate of 5% per annum and is convertible at the election of the lender into 240,000 shares of our common stock at any time after December 31, 2012 at $0.05 per share. We have the right to prepay the note at any time without penalty or premium unless the lender elects to convert the note into 240,000 shares of our common stock within 3 business days of receiving our notice of prepayment. We also have the right to compel the lender to accept 240,000 shares of our common stock if we are unable to pay the principal of and interest on the note when due.

 

The focus of our efforts is to acquire or develop an operating business. Despite no active operations at this time, management intends to continue in business and has no intention to liquidate the Company. We have considered various business alternatives including the possible acquisition of an existing business, but to date have found possible opportunities unsuitable or excessively priced. We do not contemplate limiting the scope of our search to any particular industry. Management has considered the risk of possible opportunities as well as their potential rewards. We presently own no real property and currently have no intention of acquiring any such property. Our significant expected expenses are comprised primarily of professional fees incident to our reporting requirements.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company's recurring losses from operations, stockholders' deficiency and working capital deficiency, and lack of revenue generating operations, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Management believes that the Company will continue to incur losses and negative cash flows from operating activities for the foreseeable future and will need additional equity or debt financing to sustain its operations until it can achieve profitability and positive cash flows, if ever. Management plans to seek additional debt and/or equity financing for the Company, but cannot assure that such financing will be available, or if available, on acceptable terms.

 

The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. There can be no assurance that management will be successful in implementing its business plan or that the successful implementation of such business plan will improve the Company's operating results.

 

The financial statements contained herein for the period ending December 31, 2011, have been prepared on a "going concern" basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. For the reasons discussed herein and in the footnotes to our financial statements included herein, there is a significant risk that we will be unable to continue as a going concern. Our audited financial statements included in this Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2011, contain additional disclosures describing the circumstances that lead to this disclosure by our independent auditors.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off balance sheet arrangements.

 

The Company believes that its existing capital will not be sufficient to meet the Company's cash needs required for the costs of compliance with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, and for the costs of accomplishing its goal of completing a business combination, for the next twelve months. Accordingly, in the event the Company identifies a business combination during this period, it anticipates that its existing capital will be insufficient to allow it to accomplish the goal of completing a business combination. There is no assurance that there will be available funds to allow the Company it to complete a business combination, and once a business combination is completed, the Company's needs for additional financing are likely to increase substantially.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

The Board of Directors and Shareholders

Microsmart Devices, Inc.

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Microsmart Devices, Inc. [a development stage company] as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 and for the period from inception [August 18, 1998] through December 31, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

 

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 has determined that it 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 purposes of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal controls 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 the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Microsmart Devices, Inc. (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 and for the period from inception [August 18, 1998] through December 31, 2011 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note D to the financial statements, the Company has accumulated losses, no assets, negative working capital, and is still developing its planned principal operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note D. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE A SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Company Background

 

The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on August 18, 1998 with the name "Design By Robin, Inc." with authorized common stock of 50,000,000 shares at $0.001 par value. On July 5, 2004, the name was changed to "Microsmart Devices, Inc."

 

The Company was organized to engage in the business of designing, manufacturing and distributing items of women's and girl's apparel. However, during the year 2000, the Company abandoned its activity and became inactive.

 

The Company is in the development stage and is developing its planned principal operations.

 

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U. S. generally accepted accounting principles. The following summarizes the more significant of such policies:

 

Articles of Incorporation

 

On November 8, 2005, the Articles of Incorporation were amended and restated to authorize 100,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.001.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash is comprised of cash on hand or on deposit in banks. The Company has $0 as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.

 

Property & Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line or declining balance method over the useful lives of the related assets. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. There are no depreciable assets as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company applies Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) , ASC 740 "Income Taxes," which requires the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. The asset and liability method requires that the current or deferred tax consequences of all events recognized in the financial statements are measured by applying the provisions of enacted tax laws to determine the amount of taxes payable or refundable currently or in future years.

 

The Company classifies income tax penalties and interest as general and administrative and interest expense, respectively.

 

Net Loss Per Common Share

 

Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average outstanding shares to assume conversion of all potentially dilutive common share equivalents. As of the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, there were 240,000 potentially dilutive shares equivalents.  Due to the net loss, these would be anti-dilutive and have been excluded from the calculations.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue when earned, which will be when services are rendered or products are delivered to customers, collection is reasonably assured, and price is fixed or determinable. There has been no revenue since the Company abandoned its apparel operations.

 

Use of Estimates in Preparation of Financial Statements

 

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

 

Impact of New Accounting Standards

 

Fair Value Measurement- In April 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued new guidance to achieve common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. This new guidance amends current fair value measurement and disclosure guidance to include increased transparency around valuation inputs and investment categorization. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company does not believe the adoption of the new guidance will have an impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

The Company has reviewed all other recently issued, but not yet adopted, accounting standards in order to determine their effects, if any, on its results of operation, financial position or cash flows. Based on that review, the Company believes that none of these pronouncements will have a significant effect on its financial statements.

 

NOTE B CAPITAL STOCK

 

During 1998, the Company issued 214,314 shares of common shares for inventory.

 

During 1998 and 1999, the Company conducted a private placement of its common stock for $20,000.

 

During 2001, the Company issued 85,728 shares of common shares pursuant to a plan of reorganization. These shares were subsequently cancelled when the plan of reorganization was terminated.

 

During June 2004, the Company issued 857,418 common shares for $2,500 in a private placement, to an officer of the Company.

 

On July 5, 2004, the Company completed a reverse common stock split of one share for 35 outstanding shares. This Report has been prepared showing post split shares from inception.

 

On July 10, 2006, the Company effected a three for one forward split by dividend of its outstanding common stock, with all fractional shares being rounded up to the nearest whole share and such a dividend subject to mandatory exchange of certificates. In accordance with the SEC's SAB Topic 4C, all disclosures of common stock outstanding have been stated in post split shares.

 

NOTE C PLAN AND AGREEMENT OF REORGANIZATION

 

On May 24, 2001, the Company entered into a plan and agreement of reorganization with Globalnet Technologies, Inc. in which the Company acquired all the outstanding stock of Globalnet, Inc. (subsidiary). On March 30, 2002, the agreement was retroactively rescinded, by mutual agreement between the parties, and the stock of the subsidiary was returned to the previous owners. The stock of the Company issued under the agreement was returned and canceled, except for 86,716, which was canceled on August 8, 2006.

 

NOTE D GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company does not have sufficient working capital for its planned activity, and to service its debt, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company's ability to achieve a level of profitable operations and/or additional financing impacts the Company's ability to continue as it is presently organized. Management continues to develop its planned principal operations and is seeking qualified merger candidates. Should management be unsuccessful in its operating activities, the Company may substantially curtail or terminate its operations.

 

NOTE E ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES

 

For income tax reporting purposes, the Company's net operating loss carryforwards of $394,839, which begin expiring in 2018, subject to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, which places limitations on the amount of taxable income which can be offset by net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes after a change in control of a loss corporation. As a result there can be no assurance that some or all of the Company's net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes will be available to offset future taxable income and associated tax, if any.

 

The Company has the following carryforwards available at December 31, 2011

No provision has been made in the financial statements for income taxes because the Company has accumulated losses from operations since inception. Any deferred tax benefit arising from the operating loss carried forward is offset entirely by a valuation allowance since it is currently not likely that the Company will be significantly profitable in the near future to take advantage of the losses. The valuation allowance increased by $9,282 to $59,226 as of December 31, 2011 from $49,944 as of December 31, 2010.

 

The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax asset at December 31, 2010 are as follows:

We have not identified any material uncertain tax positions of the Company on returns that have been filed or that will be filed. The Company has not had operations and is carrying a large Net Operating Loss as disclosed above. Since it is not thought that this Net Operating Loss will ever produce a tax benefit, even if examined by taxing authorities and disallowed entirely, there would be no effect on the financial statements.

 

The Company has filed income tax returns in the US. All years prior to 2008 are closed by expiration of the statute of limitations. The tax year ended December 31, 2008, will close by expiration of the statute of limitations on April 5, 2012. The years ended December 31, 2009, 2010, and 2011 are open for examination.

 

NOTE F RELATED PARTY PAYABLE

 

During the year 2011 and 2010, the majority shareholder loaned funds of $110,972 and $3,421, respectively to the Company to cover operating expenses. A balance of $207,940 is outstanding as of December 31, 2011, is unsecured, non-interest bearing, due and payable on demand.

 

NOTE G CONCENTRATIONS

 

The Company depends significantly on funding from a shareholder to meet its obligations and maintain its filing status. If funds from the shareholder were no longer available, the Company may experience significant adverse affects including the need to cease operations.

 

NOTE H CONVERTIBLE NOTE PAYABLE

 

On November 8, 2011, the Company signed a $12,000 convertible promissory note with a third party. The note bears interest at 5% per annum and will be due on December 31, 2013. The note has conversion rights that allow the holder of the note to convert the principal balance into the Company's common stock at a price of $0.05.

 

In accordance with ASC 470, the Company has analyzed the beneficial nature of the conversion terms on the above mentioned notes and determined that a beneficial conversion feature (BCF) exists. The Company calculated the value of the BCF using the intrinsic method as stipulated in ASC 470. The value of the BCF was determined based on the stock price on the day of commitments, the discounts as agreed to in the notes, the number of convertible shares, and the difference between the effective conversion price and the fair value of the common stock. The value of the BCF of the note has been calculated at $72,000, but has been limited to the proceeds of $12,000. The BCF has been recorded as a discount to the note payable and to Additional Paid-in Capital and will be amortized over the life of the note.

Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

 

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

 

Our management evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in Internal Control - Integrated Framework. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2011, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to Section 989G of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.

 

Management is aware of the risks associated with the lack of segregation of duties at the Company due to the small number of employees currently dealing with general administrative and financial matters. Although management will periodically reevaluate this situation, at this point it considers the risks associated with such lack of segregation of duties and that the potential benefits of adding employees to segregate such duties do not justify the substantial expense associated with such increases. It is also recognized the Company has not designated an audit committee and no member of the board of directors has been designated or qualifies as a financial expert. The Company will address these concerns at the earliest possible opportunity.

 

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

 

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

Family Relationships

 

There are no family relationships between our officers and directors.

 

Our director and officer is not a director in any other U.S. reporting companies, nor has he been affiliated with any company that has filed for bankruptcy within the last ten years. The Company is not aware of any proceedings to which our officer and director, or any of his associates, is a party adverse to the Company or any of the Company's subsidiaries or has a material interest adverse to it or any of its subsidiaries.

 

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

 

There are no legal proceedings that have occurred within the past ten years concerning our directors, or control persons which involved a criminal conviction, a criminal proceeding, an administrative or civil proceeding limiting one's participation in the securities or banking industries, or a finding of securities or commodities law violations.

 

Code of Ethics

 

We have adopted a Code of Ethics, and it was filed as Exhibit 14 to our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.

 

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires officers and directors of the Company and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company's equity securities to file reports of ownership and changes in their ownership with the Commission, and forward copies of such filings to the Company. We believe, based solely on our review of the copies of such forms, that during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, all reporting persons complied with all applicable Section 16(a) filing requirements, except that Hernandez Cruz, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and a director failed to file a Form 3 disclosing his appointment to such positions.

 

Nominating Committee

 

We have not established a Nominating Committee because, due to our lack of operations and the fact that we only have one director and executive officer, we believe that we are able to effectively manage the issues normally considered by a Nominating Committee. Following the entry into any business or the completion of any acquisition, merger or reorganization, a further review of this issue will no doubt be necessitated and undertaken by new management.

If we do establish a Nominating Committee, we will disclose this change to our procedures in recommending nominees to our board of directors.

 

Audit Committee

 

We do not have an Audit Committee due to the size of our operations.

 

Since we do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors, the functions that would have been performed by such committees are performed by our director. The Board of Directors has not established an audit committee and does not have an audit committee financial expert, The Board is of the opinion that such committee is not necessary since the Company has only one. Director. There is a potential conflict of interest in that our director has the authority to determine issues concerning management compensation, nominations, and audit issues that may affect management decisions.
