NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1: Basis of Presentation

Citadel prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  The accompanying interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information in accordance with Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the Company’s opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three month periods ended December 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full years. While management of the Company believes that the disclosures presented herein and adequate and not mis-leading, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the footnotes thereto for the periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 filed in its annual report on Form 10-K.

Note 2: Other Assets

In November 2012, Citadel purchased various sports memorabilia from Art to Go, Inc., a New York Corporation for 4,000,000 Series C preferred stock.  Citadel obtained an independent valuation of the assets acquired and the consideration given and determined that the value was $2,972,000.  

Impairment of long-lived assets - The Company reviews the carrying value of its long-lived assets annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical-cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the asset by comparing the undiscounted future net cash flows expected to result from the asset to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flows of the asset, an impairment loss is measured and recognized. An impairment loss is measured as the difference between the net book value and the fair value of the long-lived asset. Fair value is estimated based upon either discounted cash flow analysis or estimated salvage value. An impairment charge of $0 was recorded in the quarter ended December 31, 2012.

Note 3: Stockholders’ Equity

Preferred Stock

On November 7, 2012 Citadel amended the designation of Series C preferred stock to increase the number of shares from 30,000,000 to 70,000,000 shares.

In November 2012, Citadel issued 4,000,000 Series C Preferred Shares for the acquisition of sports memorabilia.  

Additionally during the three months ended December 31, 2012, Citadel issued another 443,000 Series C Preferred shares to various consultants for services rendered and valued at $329,149.  Also, 13,500 Series C Preferred shares were issued to various consultants to settle liabilities of $67,500. A gain on settlement of liabilities of $49,344 was recorded. All of these shares were also valued based on the independent valuation method.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis provides information that management believes is relevant for an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition. This information should be read in conjunction with our audited historical financial statements which are included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012and our unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q in Part I. Item 1.

General

We have about 1,700 merchant-clients that use our terminals to process their credit card transaction which has allowed us to be profitable, even in our infancy. A further drop in U.S. economic activity beyond the severe slowdown since 2008 will undoubtedly have an effect on our revenues, as we make our money principally on “residuals”. Residuals are based off a pre-negotiated and contracted percentage rate for each transaction that our merchant-client incurs by its customers. Although we have a standard contract, the rates at which we have negotiated with each of our merchant-clients may vary slightly.

The main challenges we face are continued competition from new entrants into the industry, and limiting our exposure to any erosion of our client base as a result of any possible further deterioration of the economy.

Our other chief concern is competition. Our industry has relatively low barriers to entry. We believe this may lead, in the near-term, to a further splintering of this market industry, but in the mid- to long-term will lead to a consolidation through mergers and acquisitions within this industry. We believe that by streamlining our operations into one public vehicle, we will be in a better position to maximize our value during this foreseen splintering, and then consolidating phases.

Industry and Executive Outlook

Our specific goal is to continue the expansion of our business by growing our customer base. Internet advertising has been the greatest marketing and sales-generating vehicle. We plan to continue to spend more advertising dollars on Internet advertising.

We will also use marketing experts to generate new clients for Citadel. This includes but is not limited to using blogs, chat rooms, internet promotion companies, search engine placement, opt-in email promotion, self- producing web sites, and referrals.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended December 31, 2012 Compared to Three Months Ended December 31, 2011

Revenues

Revenues decreased by $29,919, or 24 percent to $94,775 for the three months ended December 31, 2012 from $124,694 for the three months ended December 31, 2011.  The revenue rate decreased due to smaller number of merchants and transactions. Revenues are reported net of amounts paid to sponsor banks, as well as interchange and assessments paid to credit card associations (MasterCard and Visa) under revenue sharing agreements pursuant to which such parties receive payments based primarily on processing volume for particular groups of merchants.   

Operating Expenses. 

Our operating expenses decreased from $553,812 for the three months ended December 31, 2011 to $403,802 for the three months ended December 31, 2012.  The primary reason for the decrease was $70,000 of executive compensation recorded during 2011.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Overview

Over the course of the past three years of operations, including the operations of our predecessor company, we have not seen large, sudden shifts in revenues, although because our business model is reliant on the size of consumer transactions, we have seen, over the past three years, a slight, general increase in revenues likely owing to gradual inflation. We have made no attempt to quantify the amount of increase in our revenue that is due to inflation, although we suspect that it tracks the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index of approximately 5% over the past three years, owing to the breadth of goods and services in which credit cards are used.

Our primary source of liquidity is cash from operations. Were our residuals from credit card processing transactions to drop steeply, we would not be able to quickly or automatically make up the liquidity through other sources.

While one of the strong current trends in the consumer credit markets is for the paying down of personal debt and the increase of personal savings among consumers, our management believes, based only upon our own activity and revenue data which it has observed, that this trend is most likely occurring in the form of paying off a larger portion of each respective consumers' monthly credit card bills, and not through a reduced use of the card itself. Our management's belief is that consumers still use their credit cards for purchases in a slow economic climate; even increasing the amount they spend on a credit card, as a way to manage their own contracted or uncertain cash flows.

Cash Flow from Operating Activities

During the three months ended December 31, 2012, cash provided from operating activities was $60,443 as compared to cash flows provided by operating activities during the same prior year period of $21,200  

Cash Flow from Investing Activities

During the first quarter 2012 and 2011, cash used in investing activities was $0, respectively.

Cash Flow from Financing Activities

During the first quarter 2012 and 2011, cash used in financing activities was $90,000 and $0, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policy Updates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our unaudited consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments that may affect assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition and related allowances and income taxes including the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets.  We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Revenue Recognition  

We derive revenues primarily from the electronic processing of credit, charge and debit card transactions that are authorized and captured through third-party networks. Typically, merchants are charged for these processing services based on a percentage of the dollar amount of each transaction and in some instances, additional fees are charged for each transaction. Certain merchant customers are charged a flat fee per transaction and may also be charged miscellaneous fees, including fees for handling charge backs, monthly minimums, equipment rentals, sales or leasing and other miscellaneous services.

Revenues are reported net of amounts paid to sponsor banks, as well as interchange and assessments paid to credit card associations (MasterCard and Visa) under revenue sharing agreements pursuant to which such parties receive payments based primarily on processing volume for particular groups of merchants.

We follow the requirements of ASC 605-45, “Revenue Recognition, Principal Agent Considerations,” in determining our revenue reporting. Generally, we report revenues at the time of sale on a net basis where we are not the primary obligor in the arrangement, have minimal latitude in establishing the price of the services, do not change the product and perform part of the service, do not have discretion in supplier selection, do not have latitude in determining the product and service specifications to meet our client’s needs and do not assume credit risk. This amount includes interchange paid to card issuing banks and assessments paid to credit card associations pursuant to which such parties receive payments based primarily on processing volume for particular groups of merchants

Refer to Part II. Item 2 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2011 for a discussion of our Critical Accounting Policies.

Inflation and Seasonality

We do not believe that our operations are significantly impacted by inflation.  Our business is not significantly seasonal in nature.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.   We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our sole Executive officer serving in both the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer capacities, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weakness described below to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and 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.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.    There have been no changes to our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2011 which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.   Management is responsible for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements of Citadel EFT, Inc. Management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

(i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and(iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

During the Annual 10-K review process for the year ended September 30, 2012, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.  Based on this evaluation, our management concluded our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 2012 and the deficiencies reported continue to be deficiencies as of December 31, 2012. 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.  We have identified the following material weakness.

As of December 31, 2012, we did not maintain effective controls over the control environment.  The Board of Directors does not currently have any independent members and no director qualifies as an audit committee financial expert.  We did not maintain the following controls: sufficient policies and procedures over the administration of our accounting and fraud risk policies, and a sufficient segregation of duties to decrease the risk of inappropriate accounting since there is only 1 employee. Since these entity level programs have a pervasive effect across the organization, management has determined that these circumstances constitute a material weakness. Additionally, this control deficiency could result in another material weakness that could result in a material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.
