Zinco Do Brasil, Inc.(Formerly Turkpower Corporation)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

November 30, 2012

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

 

Zinco Do Brasil, Inc. (formerly Turkpower Corporation) (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on November 4, 2004 as Global Ink Supply Company and was organized for the purpose of forming a vehicle to pursue a business combination. On September 28, 2012, an amendment was filed with and approved by the Secretary of State of Delaware to (i) change the name of the Company to Zinco do Brasil, Inc., (ii) effect a reverse split on a 1:15 basis and (iii) increase the number of the Company’s authorized shares of capital stock from 310,000,000 shares to 810,000,000 of which 800,000,000 shares are common stock with a par value $0.0001 per share and 10,000,000 shares are preferred stock with a par value $0.0001 per share. The amended Articles of Incorporation were approved by the State of Delaware effective September 28, 2012.

 

The reverse split does not affect the number of common shares authorized for issuance.  All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split in the financial statements and in the notes to financial statements for all periods presented, to reflect the reverse stock split as if it occurred at beginning of the comparable year.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended November 30, 2012 and 2011 are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  The results of operations realized during an interim period are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year.  These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the information filed with the SEC as part of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed on September 18, 2012.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned US subsidiary, TurkPower USA Corporation and its foreign subsidiary, Turkpower Enerji San. Ve Tic. A.S., of which the Company has a 99.8% controlling interest.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 as well as the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

Discontinued Operations

 

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 205-20, Presentation of Financial Statements-Discontinued Operations, we reported the results of our Turkey operations as a discontinued operation. This is discussed in Note 4 “Discontinued Operations”.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and debt approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Management believes the Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

 

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable.

 

6
 

 

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. These are typically obtained from real-time quotes for transactions in active exchange markets involving identical assets.
Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices included for identical or similar assets and liabilities that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. These are typically obtained from readily-available pricing sources for comparable instruments.
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs, where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability. These inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own beliefs about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, based on the best information available in the circumstances.

 

The following table presents the derivative financial instruments, the Company’s only financial liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets on a recurring basis, and their level within the fair value hierarchy as of November 30, 2012:

 

   Amount   Level 1   Level 2   Level 3 
Embedded conversion derivative liability  $8,836   $-   $-   $8,836 
Warrant derivative liabilities   108,491    -    -    108,491 
Total  $117,327   $-   $-   $117,327 

 

The following table presents the derivative financial instruments, the Company’s only financial liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets on a recurring basis, and their level within the fair value hierarchy as of May 31, 2012:

 

   Amount   Level 1   Level 2   Level 3 
Embedded conversion derivative liability  $159,000   $-   $-   $159,000 
Warrant derivative liabilities   349,819    -    -    349,819 
Total  $508,819   $-   $-   $508,819 

 

The following table provides a summary of the changes in fair value, including net transfers in and/or out, of the derivative financial instruments, measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs:

 

Balance at May 31, 2012  $508,819 
Unrealized derivative gains included in other expense   (391,492)
Balance at November 30, 2012  $117,327 

 

The fair value of the derivative liabilities are calculated at the time of issuance and the Company records a derivative liability for the calculated value. Changes in the fair value of the derivative liabilities are recorded in other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

The derivatives were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

 

   November 30,
2012
   May 31, 2012 
Market value of stock on measurement date  $0.10   $0.16 
Risk-free interest rate  0.00 – 0.16%  0.03 – 0.18%
Dividend yield   0%   0%
Volatility factor   153 – 154%    152 – 179%
Term   0.00 – 0.75 year    0.06 – 1.25 years 

 

The Company has considered the provisions of ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, as the conversion feature embedded in each debenture could result in the note principal being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares.

 

7
 

 

Reclassification

 

Certain accounts in the prior period were reclassified to conform with the current period financial statements presentation.

 

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

 

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

 

NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN

 

As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company had a net loss of $3,908,934 for the six months ended November 30, 2012 and had a working capital deficit as of November 30, 2012 of $5,232,600. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company intends to raise additional working capital either through debt or equity financing.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

NOTE 4 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

 

In November 2011, the Company determined that it would cease all operations in Turkey and sell its Turkish subsidiary, including its investment in the mining company. As a result, the Company has identified the assets and liabilities of the Turkish subsidiary as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations at November 30, 2012 and has segregated its operating results and presented them separately as a discontinued operation for all periods presented.

 

A summarized operating result for discontinued operations is as follows:

   November 30, 2012   November 30, 2011 
         
Revenues  $-   $9,988

NOTE 6 – CONVERTIBLE DEBT

 

Six-Month Secured Convertible Debenture issued with warrants

 

On August 22, 2011, the Company issued a $250,000 secured convertible debenture to a third party together with 75,757 common shares and warrants to purchase 73,333 shares of common stock with a term of one (1) year and an exercise price $3.75 per share.  The secured debenture was due on the earlier of 1) six months (February 22, 2012) or 2) upon the Company’s receipt of $500,000 of debt or equity proceeds and, together with any unpaid interest, are convertible into common shares at a conversion rate of $3.75 per share.  On February 29, 2012, the Company and the noteholder agreed to extend the maturity date of the secured debenture to June 22, 2012. Further, the 73,333 warrants issued in connection with the secured debenture were modified by (i) extending its expiration date for another twelve months to September 1, 2013 (ii) lowering the exercise price from $3.75 to $1.91 per warrant share and (iii) increasing the number of common shares exercisable from 73,333 shares to 146,667 shares. 

 

On July 21, 2012 the Company entered into an agreement with the holder to extend the maturity date of the secured debenture to November 1, 2012 and to convert $25,000 of accrued interest to principal. Under the terms of the new agreement, the conversion price of the debt was changed from $3.75 per share to $1.5 per share. Additionally, the 146,667 1-year warrants issued in connection with the secured debenture were modified, lowering the exercise price from $1.914 to $1.5 per share and the holder was issued an additional 533,333 shares of common stock, valued at $623,200.

 

The Company evaluated the modification and determined that it was substantial and was therefore accounted for as an extinguishment of debt.  Consequently, the fair value of the 533,333 common shares of $623,200 and the incremental fair value of the modified warrants of $8,276 was recorded as loss on debt extinguishment of $631,476 during the six months ended November 30, 2012.

 

As of November 30, 2012, the outstanding balance on the debenture amounted to $275,000 and is currently in default.

 

One Year Term Debentures

 

Borrowings

During the six months ended November 30, 2012, the Company borrowed $32,000 by issuing convertible debentures to a related party together with 2,133 common shares. The convertible debentures bear annual interest at 18%, mature in one year and, together with any unpaid interest, are convertible into common shares at a conversion rate of $0.25 per share. The relative fair value of the shares at the time of issuance was $1,953 and was recorded as a debt discount and a corresponding increase in equity. The discount is amortized to interest expense over the terms of the debentures using the effective interest method.

 

The convertible debenture was analyzed for a beneficial conversion feature at which time it was concluded that no beneficial conversion feature exists. The Company also analyzed the convertible debentures for derivative accounting consideration and determined that derivative accounting does not apply to these instruments.

 

Conversions

During the six months ended November 30, 2012 the Company converted $2,643,159 of convertible debt and accrued interest of $817,337 into 2,306,998 common shares. In order to induce conversion, the conversion price on these debentures was modified from $3.75 per share to $1.50 per share. The Company accounted for the conversion as induced conversion under the guidance of FASB ASC 470-20. Consequently, the Company recognized a debt conversion expense of $1,857,432 which is equivalent to the fair value of the incremental shares issued as a result of the reduction in the conversion price.

As of November 30, 2012, the balance of convertible debentures was $1,857,000 (including related party debentures totaling $32,000) which includes convertible debentures amounting to $1,125,000 that are currently in default and subjected to a default interest of 20%.

(a) Overview

 

Zinco Do Brasil, Inc. (formerly Turkpower Corporation) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on November 4, 2004 as Global Ink Supply Company and was organized for the purpose of forming a vehicle to pursue a business combination. On September 28, 2012, an amendment was filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware to (i) change the name of the Company to Zinco do Brasil, Inc., (ii) effect a reverse split on a 1:15 basis and (iii) increase the number of the Company’s authorized shares of capital stock from 310,000,000 shares to 810,000,000 of which 800,000,000 shares will be common stock par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and 10,000,000 shares will be preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”) par value $0.0001 per share. The amended Articles of Incorporation were approved by the state of Delaware effective September 28, 2012.

 

The Reverse Split does not affect the number of common shares authorized for issuance.  All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split in the financial statements and in the notes to financial statements for all periods presented, to reflect the reverse stock split as if it occurred at beginning of the comparable year.

 

Business of the Company

 

On December 20, 2011, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Share Exchange with BEST, LLC (“BEST”) and the equity holders of BEST to acquire all of the capitalization of BEST in a subsidiary to be formed for such purpose, in exchange for an aggregate of (i) 8,000,000 newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), (ii) 1,000 shares of a newly-created Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share which are convertible into and vote 17,333,333 shares of Common Stock (the “Series A”) and (iii) 1,000 shares of a newly created Series B Perpetual, Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share which are Convertible into and vote as 6,666,667 shares of Common Stock, have a liquidation preference of $25,000 per share (the "Series B") (collectively, the “Exchange Shares”).

The Exchange Shares were held in escrow pending satisfactory, documentary proof of (a) transfer of a minimum forecasted extractable quantity of coal of 100,000,000 metric tons of coal and the owner of saleable coking coal stock of not less than $20,000,000 (the “Inventory”) to the Company and the Inventory’s value from an independent third party or through sale of the Inventory; (b) transfer of title and mining rights of a forty-nine (49) year lease to develop operate and mine Zavyalov Square, Part 1 at the Toguchina Coal Field, located in Novosibirsk, Russia (the “Toguchina Operations”) to the Company; (c) that there is a forecasted extractable quantity of coal equal to a minimum of 100,000,000 metric tons at the Toguchina Operations (“Extractable Coal”); (d) that Seacrest has delivered audited financial statements prepared in US GAAP format within sixty (60) days of the date hereof (the “Seacrest Financial Statement”); and (e) that the Seacrest Financial Statements report no outstanding material liabilities that would have a material adverse effect on the operations of Seacrest and/or the Toguchina Operations or ownership of any other assets other than the Toguchina Operations (collectively, the “Release Conditions”). The foregoing is only a summary of the material terms of the Supplement. Pursuant to the Supplement, the Company has the right to terminate if the Release Conditions have not been satisfied within sixty days from the closing of the transaction. Accordingly, the Company exercised its right to terminate the Supplement, cancelled and retired the Exchange Shares and has taken steps to retain and perfect title to the Toguchina Operations. The Company is not expected to incur any early termination penalties as a result of the termination of the Supplement.

 

As of July 24, 2012, the Company had not received documentary proof of any of the Release Conditions and exercised its right to terminate the share exchange agreement and has advised Seacrest of the related termination. As a result of the termination, the 166,667 common shares and 425 Series A Preferred shares are not shown as issued and outstanding in the consolidated financial statements.

On August 14, 2012, the Company entered into a Binding Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Ouro do Brasil Holdings Ltd. (“OBH”) and IMS Engenharia Mineral Ltda. (“IMS”) for the proposed acquisition of 99.9% (the “Transaction”) of the capital stock of Zinco do Brasil Mineracao Ltda., a company to be formed under the laws of Brazil (“ZBM”), which will be owned by OBH and IMS. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company will acquire 99.9% of the total capitalization of ZBM in exchange for (i) 7,166,667 newly issued shares of the Company’s restricted common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), to OBH (the “OBH Shares”) and (ii) 1,075,000 shares of a newly-created Series C Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, to IMS (the “IMS Shares”). At the closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”) all officers, directors and shareholders holding 10% or more of the Company’s Common Stock shall enter into lock-up agreements.

 

The Company issued 3,466,667 of the OBH Shares to OBH and the IMS Shares to IMS. The balance of the respective shares will be issued to OBH at the Closing pursuant to a Final Transaction Agreement (“Transaction Agreement”) to be executed by the parties upon the formation of ZBM. The Transaction Agreement will contain customary terms, conditions, and covenants for a transaction of this nature. 

 

In connection with the Transaction, the Company will convert an aggregate of approximately $5,000,000 of outstanding debt into approximately 3,333,333 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. In addition, following the closing of the proposed transaction, the Company shall consummate a private placement offering of $300,000 secured convertible notes and, within six months of closing the proposed transaction, the Company must: (i) raise up to $6,000,000 or such amount necessary to satisfy payment to Vale S.A. to complete the acquisition of the zinc mine; and (ii) raise $17,000,000 on or before the anniversary of the closing for working capital and general corporate purposes (collectively, the “Financing Conditions”). If the Financing Conditions are not met, IMS shall have the right of rescission provided that IMS has not converted any of its IMS Shares into Common Stock.

 

Upon execution of the Agreement, Ahmet Calik, Juvenil Felix, Ed Dowling and Jose Mendo de Souza shall be appointed to the Company’s Board of Directors on or before the Closing; James Davidson shall be appointed Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Ryan Hart, the Company’s current Chairman and Chief Executive Officer will serve as President and Adriano Espeschit will be appointed a Director and Chief Operation Officer. As of the date of this filing, Juvenil Felix, Ed Dowling and Jose Mendo de Souza have been appointed as members of the Board of Directors, and Adriano Espeschit has been appointed a Director and Chief Operation Officer.

 

ZBM will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Company has amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name to “Zinco do Brasil, Inc.” This change was approved by the State of Deleware effective September 28, 2012.

 

Further, on or before the second anniversary of the closing, the Company shall divest itself of all current assets and operations in Turkey (the “Turkish Operations”) in exchange of the assumption of any liabilities associated with the Turkish Operations.

 

As of the date of this filing, ZBM has not been formed and the transaction has not been completed. The fair value of OBH shares and IMS shares of $14,731,927 has been recorded as a deposit on the acquisition.

 

On December 20, 2012, James Davidson resigned as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and Ryan Hart was appointed as interim Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

 

(b) Going Concern

 

As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company had net losses of $3,908,934 for the six months ended November 30, 2012 and had a working capital deficit as of November 30, 2012 of $5,232,600. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company intends to raise additional working capital either through debt or equity financing. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

(c) Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation.

 

For the Six Months Ended November 30, 2012

 

For the six months ended November 30, 2012 and 2011 our professional fees were $171,414 and $232,641 respectively. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in accounting fees from $87,431 to $35,418 due to timing of services performed.

 

13
 

 

For the six months ended November 30, 2012 and 2011, our selling, general and administrative expenses were $728,811 and $1,053,870 respectively. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was due to a decrease in investor relations of $75,000, a decrease in stock compensation of $227,000.

 

For the six months ended November 30, 2012 and 2011, we recorded other expense of $2,847,132 and $ 1,100,397, respectively. The change is primarily a result of the loss on debt extinguishment of $631,476 and debt conversion expense of $1,857,432, offset by the gain on derivative of $391,492 for the six months ended November 30, 2012, compared to a loss on derivatives of $54,350 for the six months ended November 30, 2011, and the decrease in interest expense of $296,331.

 

For the six months ended November 30, 2012 and 2011, we recorded a loss from discontinued operations of $161,577 compared to $3,280,343.  The decrease is due to the ceased operations in Turkey; activities for the current period consisted solely of interest expense.

 

For the Three Months Ended November 30, 2012

 

For the three months ended November 30, 2012 and 2011, our professional fees were $88,428 and $79,410, respectively. The increase in professional fees was due to an increase in legal expenses for the quarter due to efforts related to acquiring Zinco do Brasil, Inc.

 

For the three months ended November 30, 2012 and 2011, our selling, general and administrative expenses were $243,812 and $367,567, respectively. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was largely due to stock compensation, which decreased by approximately $147,000.

 

For the three months ended November 30, 2012 and 2011, we recorded other expense of $1,249,688 and $537,546, respectively. The increase in other expense was due to debt conversion expense totaling $890,685 and a derivative loss of $3,708 for the three months ended November 30, 2012 compared to a gain of $129,638 for the three months ended November 30, 2011, offset by a decrease in interest expense of $311,889.

 

For the three months ended November 30, 2012 and 2011, we recorded a loss from discontinued operations of $88,777 compared to $3,079,347.  The decrease is due to the ceased operations in Turkey; activities for the current period consisted solely of interest expense.

 

(d) Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

At November 30, 2012, we had cash of $362, as compared to $299,298 at May 31, 2012. This decrease was a result of cash used in operating activities of $295,036 and cash used in financing activities of $3,900.

 

During the next 12 months we anticipate incurring costs related to the consummation of the acquisition of ZBM, the exploration and development of ZBM’s mineral rights and fundraising activities.

 

We believe we will be able to meet these costs through the use of funds, to be loaned by or invested in us by our stockholders, management or other investors. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to secure such funds or that if we do so, that they will be on terms that are favorable to the Company.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of the date of this Quarterly Report, the Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company's financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. The term "off-balance sheet arrangement" generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with the Company is a party, under which the Company has (i) any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest; or (ii) a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets.

 

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

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of its wholly owned US subsidiary, TurkPower USA Corporation and its foreign subsidiary, Turkpower Enerji San. Ve Tic. A.S., of which the Company has a 99.8% controlling interest.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

Discontinued Operations

 

In accordance with ASC 205-20, Presentation of Financial Statements-Discontinued Operations (“ASC 205-20”), we reported the results of our Turkey operations as a discontinued operation. The application of ASC 205-20 is discussed in Note 4 “Discontinued Operations”.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and debt approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Management believes the Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

 

Seasonality

 

To date, we have not noted any significant seasonal impacts.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Not applicable for smaller reporting companies.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

 

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, Management has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective because of the identification of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, which we view as an integral part of our disclosure controls and procedures. The material weakness relates to the Company not having personnel with knowledge of generally accepted accounting principles. Our executive management does not possess accounting expertise and our Company does not have an audit committee. This weakness was due to our lack of working capital to hire additional staff during the period covered by this report. We intend to obtain this knowledge of generally accepted accounting principles by hiring a contractor and/or hiring additional accounting personnel.
