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

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

The consolidated financial statements were prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern and further states that our recurring losses from operations, accumulated deficit and inability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our obligations and sustain our operations raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our plans concerning these matters are discussed in Note 1 to the accompanying audited consolidated financial statements.
 
In August of 2009 a stock acquisition/reverse merger agreement was entered into by Nature Vision, Inc. (nka Swordfish Financial, Inc.) (the “Company”) and Swordfish Financial, Inc., the Texas corporation. The reverse merger was closed on August 14, 2009. Pursuant to the terms of the reverse merger, the equity holders of Swordfish Financial, Inc., the Texas corporation acquired 10,987,417 shares of common stock constituting 80% of voting control of the Company in return for a $3,500,000 note, bearing interest at the rate of 5% per annum.  The financial statements have been prepared to include the results of operations for the Company for the year ended December 31, 2010.
 
As a result of the reverse merger being accounted for as a reverse merger acquisition, Nature Vision’s assets and liabilities assets and liabilities as of  the closing date of the reverse merger, have been incorporated into Swordfish Financial, Inc.’s balance sheet based on the fair values of the net assets acquired, which equaled the consideration paid for the acquisition.  FASB ASC 805-10 requires an allocation of the acquisition consideration to the individual assets and liabilities. Further, the Company’s operating results (post-Merger) include Swordfish Financial, Inc., a Texas corporation, operating results prior to the date of the closing and the results of the combined entity following the closing of the Merger. Swordfish Financial, Inc., a Texas corporation, was considered the acquiring entity for accounting purposes.

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

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

Despite cost reduction initiatives, the Company will be unable to pay its obligations in the normal course of business or service its debt in a timely manner throughout 2012 without completing a recovery project, raising additional debt or equity capital.  There can be no assurance that the Company will complete a recovery project, raise additional debt or equity capital.

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

    In 2011, the Company raised $307,620 from the sale of common stock in private placements, $106,950 from advances from shareholders and $85,500 from the issuance of debt instruments.

 
Plan of Operations

Swordfish Financial had no revenues from its financial asset recovery operations in 2011 and 2010.  It operates as a diversified financial asset recovery company for high net worth individuals and companies with orphaned or dormant assets held in financial institutions around the world.  It will recognize its share of the recovered assets on its financial statements upon the successful completion of each recovery project.  Swordfish Financial plans to take the financial capital resources recovered, retire all of its debits and invest in companies that have the mission of being eco-friendly and providing a better standard of living for our world’s people.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  We incurred net losses of $1,367,059 and $2,696,278 in fiscal years 2011 and 2010, respectively, and had an accumulated deficit of $8,948,540 as of December 31, 2011.  We have managed our liquidity during the fourth quarter of 2011 and the first quarter of 2012 through the sales of common stock, issuance of debt and advance from shareholders.
 
Despite the cost reduction initiatives, the Company will be unable to pay its obligations in the normal course of business or service its debt in a timely manner throughout 2012 without being successful on an asset recovery project, raising additional debt and/or equity capital.

            The Company is currently evaluating strategic alternatives that include the following: (i) raising of capital and (ii) securing capital through the issuance of debt.  This process is ongoing and can be lengthy and has inherent costs.  There can be no assurance that the exploration of strategic alternatives will result in any specific action to alleviate the Company’s twelve month working capital needs or result in any other transaction.
 
 The Company believes that the effect of inflation has not been material during the year ended December 31, 2011.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements
 
As of December 31, 2011, there were no off-balance sheet arrangements, unconsolidated subsidiaries and commitments or guaranties of other parties.
 
Critical Accounting Policies

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

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



 
9

 
 
Subsequent Events

We adopt changes issued by ASC Topic 855 – “Subsequent Events,” formerly FASB 165, which establishes general standards for accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. The pronouncement requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date, whether that date represents the date the financial statements were issued or were available to be issued.     In conjunction with the preparation of these financial statements, an evaluation of subsequent events was performed through April 13, 2012, which is the date the financial statements were issued.    

Business Combinations

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

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

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

Impairment of long lived assets

 Considerable management judgment is necessary in estimating future cash flows and other factors affecting the valuation of long-lived assets, including intangible assets, including the operating and macroeconomic factors that may affect them. The Company uses historical financial information, internal plans and projections and industry information in making such estimates.   The Company had no long lived assets at December 31, 2011 to evaluate against expected future cash flows.

Income taxes

Significant management judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against net deferred tax assets. We record a current provision for income taxes based on amounts payable or refundable. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. The overall change in deferred tax assets and liabilities for the period measures the deferred tax expense or benefit for the period. We recognize a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that deferred assets are not recoverable.   During fiscal 2011 and 2010, the Company established its valuation allowance for the entire amount of the deferred tax assets.  If actual taxable income by jurisdiction and the period over which our deferred tax assets are recoverable are materially different than our estimate, the change could be material to our consolidated financial statements.

Item 9A.   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The  Company's  management  evaluated,  with  the  participation  of  its  Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), the effectiveness of the design/operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and  15d-15(e)  under the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act")) as of December 31, 2011.

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

Management conducted its evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures under the supervision of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer.  Based on that evaluation, management concluded that, considering the existence of material weaknesses identified, our internal control over financial reporting disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2011.

Material Weaknesses Identified

We identified the following  deficiencies  which together  constitute a material weakness  in our  assessment  of the  effectiveness  of  internal  control  over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011:
 
o    The  Company  has  inadequate  segregation  of duties  within its cash disbursement control design.
 
o    During the year ended December 31, 2011, the company internally performed all aspects of our financial reporting process, including, but not limited to the underlying accounting records and record journal entries and responsibility for the preparation of the financial statement due to the fact these duties were performed often times by the same people, a lack of review was created over the financial reporting process that might result in a failure to detect errors in spreadsheets, calculations, or assumptions used to compile the financial statement and related disclosures as filed with the SEC.  These control deficiencies could result in a material misstatement to our interim or annual financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.
 
o   The Company does not have a sufficient number of independent directors for our  board  and  audit  committee.  We currently have no independent director on our board, which is comprised of two directors, and we do not have a functioning audit committee. As a publicly-traded company, we should strive to have a majority of our board of directors be independent.
 
 
 
 
11

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

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our  management is also required to assess and report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley  Act of 2002 ("Section 404").  Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011.  In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO)
in Internal  Control -  Integrated  Framework.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

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

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

Auditor Attestation

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

Former Officer and Director Loans to Company

In July 2008, the Company amended the terms and replaced the original $1,000,000 demand note issued to Richard P. Kiphart, a member of its Board of Directors (Mr. Kiphart resigned on August 17, 2009), in October 2007.  The amended $1,000,000 demand note is held by the same former member of the Company’s Board of Directors.  The demand promissory note is unsecured and bears an interest rate of 15% (the maturity date was extended to August 17, 2010 by agreement).  Interest is payable on the first day of each month.  The entire principal and interest is payable upon demand anytime after August 17, 2010.    The Company paid no interest and accrued $150,000 of interest on this note during the year ended December 31, 2011.

On August 17, 2009, the Company borrowed $200,000 from a former Board of Directors in order to meet its short-term cash flow requirement. This demand promissory note is secured by a second lien on the Company’s assets and has an interest rate of 15%  The entire principal and accrued interest is payable upon demand anytime after February 17, 2010.  As part of the terms of the $50,000 note described below, the noteholder, at any time prior to the maturity of the note, has the option to convert the note principal and accrued interest into the Company’s common stock at $.10 per share.  The Company paid no interest and accrued $30,000 of interest on this note during the year ended December 31, 2011.
 
On August 18, 2010, the Company borrowed $50,000 from a former Board of Directors in order to meet its short-term cash flow requirement. This demand promissory note is secured by a second lien on the Company’s assets and has an interest rate of 15%  The entire principal and accrued interest is payable upon demand 180 days from the date of the note.  At any time prior to the maturity of the note, the noteholder has the option to convert the note principal and accrued interest into the Company’s common stock at $.10 per share.  The Company paid no interest and accrued $7,500 of interest on this note during the year ended December 31, 2011.

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

Director Independence

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

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

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


 I have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Swordfish Financial, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2011.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit.

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

In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Swordfish Financial, Inc.  as of  December  31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and cash flows for each of  the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2011 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the company has suffered recurring losses from operations and negative cash flows from operations the past three years.  These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

SWORDFISH FINACIAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(Formerly Nature Vision, Inc.)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2011


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

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

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

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

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

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

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
 
The Company maintains its cash balances in various area banks. Cash balances are insured up to $250,000 per bank by the FDIC. The balances, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company defines cash and cash equivalents as highly liquid, short-term investments with a maturity at the date of acquisition of three months or less.
 
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
 
The Company reviews customers' credit history before extending unsecured credit and establishes an allowance for uncollectible accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers and other information. Accounts receivable are due based on agreed upon customer terms. Accounts receivable are considered past due once they are over the due date of these terms. The Company does not accrue interest on past due accounts receivable. If accounts receivable, in excess of the provided allowance, are determined uncollectible, they are charged to expense in the year that determination is made. Accounts receivable are written off after all collection efforts have failed. Accounts receivable have not been reduced by an allowance for uncollectible accounts at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

NOTE RECEIVABLE -RELATED PARTY
 
On August 14, 2009, the Company closed a Stock Purchase/Merger Agreement with Swordfish Financial, Inc., the Texas corporation  (which was controlled by the Company’s Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive Officer and majority shareholder)  pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of 10,987,417 shares of its common stock in exchange for a $3,500,000 promissory note, payable in two installments of $1,750,000 each with the first installment being forty-five (45) days from the date of the note and the second installment being one-hundred twenty (120) days from the date of the note. The Company expects payment of the note and accrued interest to be made by the Texas corporation.  The note bears interest at the rate of 5% per annum the note and the related accrued interest at December 31, 2011 and 2010 was $415,625 and $240,625, respectively.  As of the date of this filing, no payments have been made on the note and accrued interest.  The Company expects payment of the note and accrued interest from the Texas corporation.

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

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

 
 
 
F - 7

 
 
GOODWILL

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

The Company had no goodwill as of December 31, 2011.

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

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

REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
The Company’s revenues will be generated from successful recovery projects.  Each project will have its own terms as to the percentage of the recovery that the Company will retain as revenue.  The recovery revenues will be recognized by the Company when it takes possession of the revenues from each individual project, and be recognized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as outlined in the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 “Revenue Recognition” which requires that four basic criteria be met before revenue can be recognized: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) the price is fixed or determinable; (iii) reasonably assured it is collectible; and (iv) product delivery has occurred.   The Company’s policy is to present tax imposed on revenue producing transactions on a gross basis.
 
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
 
The Company expenses as general and administrative expense all costs related two product research and development agreements carried over from the previous company over the term of the agreements.  Research and development expense expensed relating to these two consulting agreements as detailed in Note 11 was $235,000 and $384,984 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
  
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition and measurements provisions of SFAS No. 123(R) (now ASC Topic 505, “Equity”), which requires companies to measure and recognize compensation expense for all stock-based payments at fair value.  SFAS No. 123(R) is being applied on the modified-prospective-transition method.  Prior to the adoption of  SFAS 123(R), the Company accounted for its stock-based compensation plans under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations, and accordingly, recognized no compensation expense related to the stock-based plans.

In accordance with SFAS No. 123(R), cash flows from income tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for stock-based awards have been classified as financing cash flows prospectively from January 1, 2006. Prior to adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), such excess income tax benefits were presented as operating cash flows. There were no cash flows from income tax benefits for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.

The Company did not issue any stock options during the year ended December 31, 2011.
 
LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
 
Net loss per common share was based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods when computing the basic net loss per share. When dilutive, stock options and warrants are included as equivalents using the treasury stock market method when computing the diluted net loss per share.  There were no dilutive common stock equivalents, options and warrants, for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.   There were no anti-dilutive options and warrants at December 31, 2011.

 
 
 
F - 8

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

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

The federal and state tax returns are open to examination for the years 2005-2011.

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

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) . This ASU is intended to create consistency between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards on the definition of fair value and on the guidance on how to measure fair value and on what to disclose about fair value measurements. This ASU will be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption prohibited for public entities. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2011-04 will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

In December 2011, theFinancial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issuedAccounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210) - Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” ASU 2011-11 requires an entity to disclose both gross information and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of financial position and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. ASU 2011-11 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. Retrospective disclosure is required for all comparative periods presented. We are assessing the impact of ASU 2011-11 on our disclosures.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08 “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Testing Goodwill for Impairment.” ASU 2011-08 allows an entity the option to make a qualitative evaluation about the likelihood of goodwill impairment to determine whether it should calculate the fair value of the reporting unit. 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. We are assessing the impact of ASU 2011-08 on our goodwill impairment test but do not expect an impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
 
 

 
 
F - 9

 

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05 “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) — Presentation of Comprehensive Income.” ASU 2011-05 requires that all non-owner changes in stockholders’ equity be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, 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. In December 2011, FASB issued ASU No. 2011-12 which defers the effective date of the requirement in ASU 2011-05 to present items that are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to net income alongside their respective components of net income and other comprehensive income. ASU 2011-05 is effective retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. We are assessing the impact of ASU 2011-05 on our comprehensive income presentation.
 
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04 “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) - Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs.” ASU 2011-04 changes the wording used to describe many of the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements. Consequently, the amendments in this update result in common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs (International Financial Reporting Standards). ASU 2011-04 is effective prospectively during interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011. Early application by public entities is not permitted. We are assessing the impact of ASU 2011-04 on our fair value disclosures.
 
In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-03 “Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860) - Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreement.” ASU 2011-03 removes from the assessment of effective control the criterion relating to the transferor’s ability to repurchase or redeem financial assets on substantially the agreed terms, even in the event of default by the transferee. ASU 2011-03 is effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011. The guidance should be applied prospectively to transactions or modifications of existing transactions that occur on or after the effective date. Early adoption is not permitted. We are assessing the impact of ASU 2011-03 on our financial condition, results of operations, and disclosures.
 
In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-02 “Receivables (Topic 310) — A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring is a Troubled Debt Restructuring.” ASU 2011-02 clarifies whether loan modifications constitute troubled debt restructuring. In evaluating whether a restructuring constitutes a troubled debt restructuring, a creditor must separately conclude that both of the following exist: (a) the restructuring constitutes a concession; and (b) the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. ASU 2011-02 was effective July 1, 2011 and was applied retrospectively to January 1, 2011. The new disclosures are presented in Note 4 - Loan and Lease Financings. The effect of applying this standard was not material.

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

NOTE 2 –   GOING CONCERN 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  We incurred net losses of $1,367,059 in 2011 and $2,696,278 in 2010 and had an accumulated deficit of $8,948,540 as of December 31, 2011.  We have managed our liquidity during the fourth quarter of 2011 and first part of first quarter of 2012 through cost reduction initiatives and the proceeds from the sale of common stock and advances from shareholders.  The Company is in default on notes payable and outstanding judgments totaling $1,731,421 and $1,102,037, respectively, and expects to repay the notes payable, judgments and accrued interest plus all of its other liabilities from the proceeds derived from the first asset recovery it completes.

NOTE 3 – NOTES PAYABLE - Affiliate

Former Member of Board of Directors

On October 19, 2007, the Company borrowed $1,000,000 from a member of its Board of Directors (who resigned on August 17, 2009) in order to meet its short-term cash flow requirement. This demand promissory note was unsecured and had an interest rate of 15%. Interest was payable on the first day of each month, commencing on December 1, 2007.
 
On July 8, 2008, the Company amended the terms and replaced the original demand note issued to the member of its Board of Directors (who resigned on August 17, 2009) on October 19, 2007.  The amended demand note is held by the same member of the Company’s Board of Directors.  The demand promissory note is unsecured and bears an interest rate of 15%.  Interest is payable on the first day of each month.  The Company incurred approximately $150,000 and $150,000 of interest for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  The entire principal and interest became payable upon demand anytime after August 17, 2010.  



 
F - 10

 

On August 17, 2009, the Company borrowed $200,000 from a former Board of Directors in order to meet its short-term cash flow requirement. This demand promissory note is secured by a second lien on the Company’s assets and has an interest rate of 15%  The entire principal and accrued interest is payable upon demand anytime after February 17, 2010.  As part of the terms of the $50,000 note described below, the noteholder, at any time prior to the maturity of the note, has the option to convert the note principal and accrued interest into the Company’s common stock at $.10 per share. The Company incurred approximately $30,000 and $30,000 of interest for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
In August 2010, the Company borrowed $50,000 from a former Board of Directors in order to meet its short-term cash flow requirement. This demand promissory note is secured by a second lien on the Company’s assets and has an interest rate of 15%  The entire principal and accrued interest is payable upon demand 180 days from the date of the note.  At any time prior to the maturity of the note, the noteholder has the option to convert the note principal and accrued interest into the Company’s common stock at $.10 per share.  The Company incurred approximately $ 7,500 and $2,759 of interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

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

The Company has entered into two Security Purchase Agreements with an accredited investor for the sale of convertible promissory notes bearing interest at 8.0% per annum.  The first note dated September 9, 2011 for $53,000 is payable on or before June 12, 2012.  The second note dated November 22, 2011 is payable on or before August 28, 2012.   Pursuant to the convertible promissory notes the investor may convert the amount paid towards the Securities Purchase Agreements into common stock of the Company at a conversion price equal to 55% of the average of the 3 lowest volume weighted average trading prices during the 10 day period ending on the latest complete trading day prior to the conversion date.  Trading price means the closing bid price on the OTC Market Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board Pink Sheets.

If any portion of the principal or accrued interest on these convertible debentures is not paid within ten (10) days of when it is due, the note shall become immediately due and payable and the Company shall pay to the noteholder in full satisfaction of its obligations hereunder, an amount equal to the greater of (i) 150% times the sum of the then outstanding principal amount of the Note plus  accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principle amount of the Note to the date of payment plus default interest, if any.

The Company shall have the right to prepay the principle and accrued interest of the convertible promissory notes during the first 180 days from the issue date at amount from 130% to 150%.    The Company evaluated the terms of the convertible notes in accordance with ASC 815-40, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, and concluded that the Convertible Notes did not result in a derivative. The Company evaluated the terms of the convertible notes and concluded that there was a beneficial conversion feature since the convertible notes are convertible into shares of common stock at a discount to the market value of the common stock.   As required by Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 98-05 “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features,” we valued the beneficial conversion feature related to the convertible promissory notes which were treated as loan discounts of $53,000 and $32,500, based on intrinsic values. The discounts related to the beneficial conversion features are being amortized over the term of the promissory notes. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company recognized $20,376 of interest expense related to the amortization of the discounts.

On December 9, 2011, the Company converted $40,000 of a note payable to a convertible promissory note due December 31, 2012 with interest at 15% per annum.  Pursuant to the convertible promissory notes the investor may convert the amount paid towards the Securities Purchase Agreements into common stock of the Company at a conversion price equal to 50% of the average of the 3 lowest volume weighted average trading prices during the 10 day period ending on the latest complete trading day prior to the conversion date.  Trading price means the closing bid price on the OTC Market Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board Pink Sheets.

If any portion of the principal or accrued interest on these convertible debentures is not paid within ten (10) days of when it is due, the note shall become immediately due and payable and the Company shall pay to the noteholder in full satisfaction of its obligations hereunder, an amount equal to the greater of 150% times the sum of  the then outstanding principal amount of the Note plus accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principle amount of the Note to the date of payment plus default interest, if any.  The note was fully converted ($2,000 in 2012 and $38,000 by the middle of January 2012.)   The Company evaluated the terms of the convertible notes and concluded that there was a beneficial conversion feature since the convertible notes are convertible into shares of common stock at a discount to the market value of the common stock.  The Company recorded a discount equal to the value of the convertible promissory note and amortized the total discount to interest expense in 2012.

The change in the valuation allowance was $584,800 and $839,000 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  There was an 80% change in ownership control in 2009 making it highly unlikely that subject to limitations set forth in Internal Revenue Code 382, the Company will be able to carry forward any benefits of the deferred tax assets created before the change in ownership.  The Company has recorded a 100% valuation allowance related to the deferred tax asset for the loss from operations, interest expense, interest income and other income subsequent to the Swordfish Financial change in ownership, which amounted to $817,058 and $606,570 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. 
 
The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, historical taxable income including available net operating loss carryforwards to offset taxable income, and projected future taxable income in making this assessment.
