PART I
 
ITEM 1.   BUSINESS

Iconic Brands, Inc., formerly Paw Spa, Inc. (“Iconic Brands”), was incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 21, 2005. Our plan was to provide mobile grooming and spa services for cats and dogs. Our services were going to include bathing, hair cutting and styling, brushing/combing, flea and tick treatments, nail maintenance and beautification, ear cleaning, teeth cleaning, hot oil treatments, and massage. We did not have any business operations and failed to generate any revenues. We abandoned this business, as we lacked sufficient capital resources. On June 10, 2009, the Company acquired Harbrew Imports, Ltd. (“Harbrew New York”), a New York corporation incorporated on September 8, 1999 which was a wholly owned subsidiary of Harbrew Imports, Ltd. Corp. (“Harbrew Florida”), a Florida corporation incorporated on January 4, 2007. On the Closing Date, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company issued to the designees of Harbrew New York 27,352,301 shares of our Common Stock at the Closing, or approximately 64% of the 42,510,301 shares outstanding subsequent to the merger. After the merger, Harbrew New York continued as the surviving company under the laws of the state of New York and became the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

In anticipation of the merger between Iconic Brands, Inc. and Harbrew New York, on May 1, 2009 the Board of Directors and a majority of shareholders of Harbrew New York approved the amendment of its Articles of Incorporation changing its name to Iconic Imports, Inc. (“Iconic Imports”). On June 22, 2009, this action was filed with the New York State Department of State.

Prior to the merger on June 10, 2009, Iconic Brands had no assets, liabilities, or business operations. Accordingly, the merger has been treated for accounting purposes as a recapitalization by the accounting acquirer Harbrew New York/Iconic Imports and the financial statements reflect the assets, liabilities, and operations of Harbrew New York/Iconic Imports from its inception on September 8, 1999 to June 10, 2009 and are combined with Iconic Brands thereafter. Iconic Brands and its wholly-owned subsidiary Harbrew New York/Iconic Imports are hereafter referred to as the “Company”.

The Company was a brand owner of self-developed alcoholic beverages. Furthermore, the Company imported, marketed and sold these beverages throughout the United States and globally.

On September 23, 2011, Iconic Imports, Inc. (“Imports”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Iconic Brands, Inc., filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 7 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of New York. The Bankruptcy case is being administered under case No. 8-11-76814.  The petition indicated that Imports had no assets and had liabilities of approximately $3,354,000.
 
On September 12, 2012, the Company announced the signing of a non-binding letter of intent (the “LOI”) to acquire 45% of the membership units of United Spirits, LLC (“Spirits”) owned by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Richard DeCicco. As material terms have yet to be negotiated or agreed to, there is no assurance that the acquisition of membership units will close and, if it closes, that the terms will be favorable to the Company.

On February 14, 2013, the Company issued a Convertible Promissory Note in the amount of $15,000 in exchange for the lender's payment of legal and audit and accounting fees totaling $15,000 on behalf of the Company. The Note bears interest at 9%, is due January 31, 2014, and is convertible at holder's option into Company common stock at a conversion price of $.02 per share (or a total of 750,000 shares of common stock). Additionally, in consideration for making this loan, the Company shall pay to the holder a fee equal to 10% of the original principal amount ($1,500) of this Note on the Maturity Date, which is also convertible at a conversion price of $.02 per share (or a total of 75,000 shares of common stock).

On March 13, 2013 the voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 7 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of New York filed on September 23, 2011 by Iconic Imports, Inc. (“Imports”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, was closed. The petition indicated that Imports had no assets and had liabilities of approximately $3,354,000.

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

Our current business plan is to attempt to identify and negotiate with a business target for the merger of that entity with and into the Company. In certain instances, a target company may wish to become a subsidiary of the Company or may wish to contribute or sell assets to the Company rather than to merge. No assurances can be given that we will be successful in identifying or negotiating with any target company. We seek to provide a method for a foreign or domestic private company to become a reporting or public company whose securities are qualified for trading in the United States secondary markets.

A business combination with a target company normally will involve the transfer to the target company of the majority of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company, and the substitution by the target company of its own management and board of directors. No assurances can be given that we will be able to enter into a business combination, or, if we do enter into such a business combination, no assurances can be given as to the terms of a business combination, or as to the nature of the target company.

Sources of Opportunities

The Company anticipates that business opportunities for possible acquisition will be referred by various sources, including its officers and directors, professional advisers, securities broker-dealers, venture capitalists, members of the financial community, and others who may present unsolicited proposals.
 
The Company will seek a potential business opportunity from all known sources, but will rely principally on personal contacts of its officers and directors as well as indirect associations between them and other business and professional people. It is not presently anticipated that the Company will engage professional firms specializing in business acquisitions or reorganizations.
 
 The officers and directors of the Company are currently employed in other positions and will devote only a portion of their time (not more than three hour per week) to the business affairs of the Company, until such time as an acquisition has been determined to be highly favorable, at which time they expect to spend full time in investigating and closing any acquisition for a period of two weeks. In addition, in the face of competing demands for their time, the officers and directors may grant priority to their full-time positions rather than to the Company.

Evaluation of Opportunities
 
The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by or under the supervision of the officers and directors of the Company. Management intends to concentrate on identifying prospective business opportunities which may be brought to its attention through present associations with management. In analyzing prospective business opportunities, management will consider such matters as the available technical, financial and managerial resources; working capital and other financial requirements; history of operation, if any; prospects for the future; present and expected competition; the quality and experience of management services which may be available and the depth of that management; the potential for further research, development or exploration; specific risk factors not now foreseeable but which then may be anticipated to impact the proposed activities of the Company; the potential for growth or expansion; the potential for profit; the perceived public recognition or acceptance of products, services or trades; name identification; and other relevant factors. Officers and directors of the Company will meet personally with management and key personnel of the firm sponsoring the business opportunity as part of their investigation. To the extent possible, the Company intends to utilize written reports and personal investigation to evaluate the above factors. The Company will not acquire or merge with any company for which audited financial statements cannot be obtained.
 
It may be anticipated that any opportunity in which the Company participates will present certain risks. Many of these risks cannot be adequately identified prior to selection of the specific opportunity, and the Company's shareholders must, therefore, depend on the ability of management to identify and evaluate such risk. In the case of some of the opportunities available to the Company, it may be anticipated that the promoters thereof have been unable to develop a going concern or that such business is in its development stage in that it has not generated significant revenues from its principal business activities prior to the Company's anticipation. There is a risk, even after the Company's participation in the activity and the related expenditure of the Company's funds, that the combined enterprises will still be unable to become a going concern or advance beyond the development stage. Many of the opportunities may involve new and untested products, processes, or market strategies which may not succeed. Such risks will be assumed by the Company and, therefore, its shareholders.
 
The Company will not restrict its search for any specific kind of business, but may acquire a venture which is in its preliminary or development stage, which is already in operation, or in essentially any stage of its corporate life. It is currently impossible to predict the status of any business in which the Company may become engaged, in that such business may need additional capital, may merely desire to have its shares publicly traded, or may seek other perceived advantages which the Company may offer.

 Acquisition of Opportunities
 
In implementing a structure for a particular business acquisition, the Company may become a party to a merger, consolidation, reorganization, joint venture, franchise or licensing agreement with another corporation or entity. It may also purchase stock or assets of an existing business. On the consummation of a transaction, it is possible that the present management and shareholders of the Company will not be in control of the Company. In addition, a majority or all of the Company's officers and directors may, as part of the terms of the acquisition transaction, resign and be replaced by new officers and directors without a vote of the Company's shareholders.
 
It is anticipated that any securities issued in any such reorganization would be issued in reliance on exemptions from registration under applicable Federal and state securities laws. In some circumstances, however, as a negotiated element of this transaction, the Company may agree to register such securities either at the time the transaction is consummated, under certain conditions, or at specified time thereafter. The issuance of substantial additional securities and their potential sale into any trading market which may develop in the Company's Common Stock may have a depressive effect on such market. While the actual terms of a transaction to which the Company may be a party cannot be predicted, it may be expected that the parties to the business transaction will find it desirable to avoid the creation of a taxable event and thereby structure the acquisition in a so called "tax free" reorganization under Sections 368(a)(1) or 351 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). In order to obtain tax free treatment under the Code, it may be necessary for the owners of the acquired business to own 80% or more of the voting stock of the surviving entity. In such event, the shareholders of the Company, including investors in this offering, would retain less than 20% of the issued and outstanding shares of the surviving entity, which could result in significant dilution in the equity of such shareholders.

As part of the Company's investigation, officers and directors of the Company will meet personally with management and key personnel, may visit and inspect material facilities, obtain independent analysis or verification of certain information provided, check references of management and key personnel, and take other reasonable investigative measures, to the extent of the Company's limited financial resources and management expertise.
 
The manner in which each Company participates in an opportunity will depend on the nature of the opportunity, the respective needs and desires of the Company and other parties, the management of the opportunity, and the relative negotiating strength of the Company and such other management.
 
With respect to any mergers or acquisitions, negotiations with target company management will be expected to focus on the percentage of the Company which target company shareholders would acquire in exchange for their shareholdings in the target company. Depending upon, among other things, the target company's assets and liabilities, the Company's shareholders will in all likelihood hold a lesser percentage ownership interest in the Company following any merger or acquisition. The percentage ownership may be subject to significant reduction in the event the Company acquires a target company with substantial assets. Any merger or acquisition effected by the Company can be expected to have a significant dilutive effect on the percentage of shares held by the Company's then shareholders, including purchasers in this offering.
 
The Company will not have sufficient funds (unless it is able to raise funds in a private placement) to undertake any significant development, marketing and manufacturing of any products which may be acquired.
 
Accordingly, following the acquisition of any such product, the Company will, in all likelihood, be required to either seek debt or equity financing or obtain funding from third parties, in exchange for which the Company would probably be required to give up a substantial portion of its interest in any acquired product. There is no assurance that the Company will be able either to obtain additional financing or interest third parties in providing funding for the further development, marketing and manufacturing of any products acquired.
 
It is anticipated that the investigation of specific business opportunities and the negotiation, drafting and execution of relevant agreements, disclosure documents and other instruments will require substantial management time and attention and substantial costs for accountants, attorneys and others. If a decision is made not to participate in a specific business opportunity the costs therefore incurred in the related investigation would not be recoverable.
 
Furthermore, even if an agreement is reached for the participation in a specific business opportunity, the failure to consummate that transaction may result in a loss to the Company of the related costs incurred.
 
Management believes that the Company may be able to benefit from the use of "leverage" in the acquisition of a business opportunity. Leveraging a transaction involves the acquisition of a business through incurring significant indebtedness for a large percentage of the purchase price for that business.
 
Through a leveraged transaction, the Company would be required to use less of its available funds for acquiring the business opportunity and, therefore, could commit those funds to the operations of the business opportunity, to acquisition of other business opportunities or to other activities. The borrowing involved in a leveraged transaction would ordinarily be secured by the assets of the business opportunity to be acquired. If the business opportunity acquired is not able to generate sufficient revenues to make payments on the debt incurred by the Company to acquire that business opportunity, the lender would be able to exercise the remedies provided by law or by contract. These leveraging techniques, while reducing the amount of funds that the Company must commit to acquiring a business opportunity, may correspondingly increase the risk of loss to the Company. No assurance can be given as to the terms or the availability of financing for any acquisition by the Company. During periods when interest rates are relatively high, the benefits of leveraging are not as great as during periods of lower interest rates because the investment in the business opportunity held on a leveraged basis will only be profitable if it generates sufficient revenues to cover the related debt and other costs of the financing. Lenders from which the Company may obtain funds for purposes of a leveraged buy-out may impose restrictions on the future borrowing, distribution, and operating policies of the Company. It is not possible at this time to predict the restrictions, if any, which lenders may impose or the impact thereof on the Company.

Competition

The Company is an insignificant participant among firms which engage in business combinations with, or financing of, development stage enterprises. There are many established management and financial consulting companies and venture capital firms which have significantly greater financial and personnel resources, technical expertise and experience than the Company. In view of the Company's limited financial resources and management availability, the Company will continue to be at a significant competitive disadvantage vis-a-vis the Company's competitors.

Regulation and Taxation

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

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

Employees

As of December 31, 2012, the Company had no employees other than its sole officer.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND PLAN OF OPERATIONS.
   
The following discussion is an overview of the important factors that management focuses on in evaluating our business, financial condition and operating performance and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in this Annual Report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward looking statements as a result of any number of factors.

Our Business

Iconic Brands, Inc., formerly Paw Spa, Inc., was incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 21, 2005.
 
We are now considered a blank check company. We intend to comply with the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for so long as we are subject to those requirements.
 
Under SEC Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Act, we also qualify as a “shell company,” because we have no or nominal assets (other than cash) and no or nominal operations. Many states have enacted statutes, rules and regulations limiting the sale of securities of shell companies in their respective jurisdictions. We intend to comply with the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for so long as we are subject to those requirements.
 
Our current business plan is to attempt to identify and negotiate with a business target for the merger of that entity with and into the Company or to acquire assets so that we will no longer be qualified as a shell company. In certain instances, a target company may wish to become a subsidiary of the Company or may wish to contribute or sell assets to the Company rather than to merge. No assurances can be given that we will be successful in identifying or negotiating with any target company. We seek to provide a method for a foreign or domestic private company to become a reporting or public company whose securities are qualified for trading in the United States secondary markets.
 
Plan of Operation - General

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

Although we hope to be in the spirits business, the Company will not restrict its search to any specific business, industry or geographical location, and the Company may participate in a business venture of virtually any kind or nature. The discussion of the proposed plan of operation under this caption and throughout this Annual Report is purposefully general and is not meant to be restrictive of the Company's virtually unlimited discretion to search for and enter into potential business opportunities.

 
12

 
 
The Company will have to obtain funds in one or more private placements to finance the operation of any acquired business. Persons purchasing securities in these placements and other shareholders will likely not have the opportunity to participate in the decision relating to any acquisition. The Company's proposed business is sometimes referred to as a "blind pool" because any investors will entrust their investment monies to the Company's management before they have a chance to analyze any ultimate use to which their money may be put. Consequently, the Company's potential success is heavily dependent on the Company's management, which will have virtually unlimited discretion in searching for and entering into a business opportunity. None of the officers and directors of the Company has had any experience in the proposed business of the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise any funds in private placements. In any private placement, management may purchase shares on the same terms as offered in the private placement.
 
Management anticipates that it will only participate in one potential business venture. This lack of diversification should be considered a substantial risk in investing in the Company because it will not permit the Company to offset potential losses from one venture against gains from another. The Company may seek a business opportunity with a firm which only recently commenced operations, or a developing company in need of additional funds for expansion into new products or markets, or seeking to develop a new product or service, or an established business which may be experiencing financial or operating difficulties and is in the need for additional capital which is perceived to be easier to raise by a public company. In some instances, a business opportunity may involve the acquisition or merger with a corporation which does not need substantial additional cash but which desires to establish a public trading market for its common stock. The Company may purchase assets and establish wholly owned subsidiaries in various business or purchase existing businesses as subsidiaries.
 
The Company anticipates that the selection of a business opportunity in which to participate will be complex and extremely risky. Because of general economic conditions, rapid technological advances being made in some industries, and shortages of available capital, management believes that there are numerous firms seeking the benefits of a publicly traded corporation. Such perceived benefits of a publicly traded corporation may include facilitating or improving the terms on which additional equity financing may be sought, providing liquidity for the principals of a business, creating a means for providing incentive stock options or similar benefits to key employees, providing liquidity (subject to restrictions of applicable statutes) for all shareholders, and other factors. Potentially available business opportunities may occur in many different industries and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex.

As part of any transaction, the acquired company may require that management or other stockholders of the Company sell all or a portion of their shares to the acquired company, or to the principals of the acquired company. It is anticipated that the sales price of such shares will be lower than the current market price or anticipated market price of the Company's Common Stock. The Company's funds are not expected to be used for purposes of any stock purchase from insiders. The Company shareholders will not be provided the opportunity to approve or consent to such sale. The opportunity to sell all or a portion of their shares in connection with an acquisition may influence management's decision to enter into a specific transaction. However, management believes that since the anticipated sales price will be less than market value, that the potential of a stock sale by management will be a material factor on their decision to enter a specific transaction.

The above description of potential sales of management stock is not based upon any corporate bylaw, shareholder or board resolution, or contract or agreement. No other payments of cash or property are expected to be received by Management in connection with any acquisition.
 
 
13

 
 
The Company has not formulated any policy regarding the use of consultants or outside advisors, but does not anticipate that it will use the services of such persons.
 
The Company has, and will continue to have, insufficient capital with which to provide the owners of business opportunities with any significant cash or other assets. However, management believes the Company will offer owners of business opportunities the opportunity to acquire a controlling ownership interest in a public company at substantially less cost than is required to conduct an initial public offering. The owners of the business opportunities will, however, incur significant post-merger or acquisition registration costs in the event they wish to register a portion of their shares for subsequent sale. The Company will also incur significant legal and accounting costs in connection with the acquisition of a business opportunity including the costs of preparing post-effective amendments, Forms 8-K, agreements and related reports and documents nevertheless, the officers and directors of the Company have not conducted market research and are not aware of statistical data which would support the perceived benefits of a merger or acquisition transaction for the owners of a business opportunity.

The Company does not intend to make any loans to any prospective merger or acquisition candidates or to unaffiliated third parties.

Going Concern Consideration
 
As of December 31, 2012, the Company had negative working capital of $4,154,105 and a stockholders’ deficiency of $7,536,518. Further, from inception to December 31, 2011, the Company incurred losses of $16,492,729. These factors create substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company plans to improve its financial condition by reorganizing and acquiring a new business. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing this objective. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
Results of Operations

Years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011

Revenues

The Company had no revenues for the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.
 
Total Expenses
 
Total expenses for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $106,748, as compared to $105,506 for the year ended December 31, 2011. This was comprised of professional fees of $40,370, interest expense of $46,198 and other general and administrative expenses of $20,180. This was similar for the total expenses for the year ended December 31, 2011 which consisted of professional fees of $37,750, interest expense of $45,307 and other general and administrative expenses of $22,449.

Years Ended December 31, 2011 and 2010

Results of Operations
 
Years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010
 
Sales:

Sales decreased by $371,113 or 100% from $371,313 for the year ended December 31, 2010 to $0 for the year ended December 31, 2011. The decrease in sales for the twelve months reflects the company’s inability to raise capital and to continue its business operations. As of September 28, 2010, the Company’s assets were sold at auction and the Company ceased its business operations.
 
Cost of goods sold:

Cost of goods sold decreased by $235,000 or 100%, from $235,744 for the year ended December 31, 2010 to $0 for the year ended December 31, 2011. This decrease in COGS is consistent with the cessation of the Company’s operations as the Company could not raise sufficient funds to support its business.
 
Gross profit:
 
Gross profit was $135,569 for the year ended December 31, 2010 and $0 for the year ended December 31, 2011, mainly attributable to the fact that the Company ceased its business operations.
 
Selling, general and administrative expenses:
 
Selling general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 were $0 and $1,751,982 respectively, a decrease of $1,751,000 or 100%, mainly attributable to the fact that the Company ceased its business operations.
 
Income (loss) from Operations:
 
Loss from operations was $105,506 for the year ended December 31, 2011 and $199,317 for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease in the loss from operations for the year results from the fact that the Company ceased its business operations.
 
Interest Expense:
 
Interest expense for the year ended December, 2011 and 2010 was $45,307 and $133,978, respectively, a decrease of $88,671 or 66%. The decrease in interest expense for the year was a result of a rate reset by our largest creditor, and the conversion of convertible debt, and notes to equity.
 
Net Income (loss):
 
Net loss was $184,677 for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to $2,738,761 for the year ended December 31, 2010, a decrease of $2,554,084 or 93%. The decrease in the net loss for the year was a result of the culmination of all the reasons previously described
 
Liquidity And Capital Resources
 
As of December 31, 2012, the Company had no cash. For the period from January 1 2012 through February 21, 2013, two entity lenders (one holding $102,000 of the 0% loans payable aggregating $112,300 and one holding $10,000 of the 0% loans payable aggregating $112,300, the $30,000 6% convertible promissory note and the $70,000 12% convertible promissory notes at December 31, 2011) paid legal, audit and accounting, and consulting fees on behalf of the Company. The loans are due on demand and are not memorialized.
 
 
15

 
 
On February 14, 2013, the Company issued a Convertible Promissory Note in the amount of $15,000 in exchange for the lender's payment of legal and audit and accounting fees totaling $15,000 on behalf of the Company. The Note bears interest at 9%, is due January 31, 2014, and is convertible at holder's option into Company common stock at a conversion price of $.02 per share (or a total of 750,000 shares of common stock). Additionally, in consideration for making this loan, the Company shall pay to the holder a Lender Fee equal to 10% of the original principal amount ($1,500) of this Note on the Maturity Date, which is also convertible at a conversion price of $.02 per share (or a total of 75,000 shares of common stock). The loan is not memorialized.
 
The focus of Iconic’s efforts is to acquire or develop an operating business. Despite no active operations at this time, management intends to continue in business and has no intention to liquidate the Parent Company. Iconic has considered various business alternatives including the possible acquisition of an existing business, but to date has found possible opportunities unsuitable or excessively priced. Iconic does not contemplate limiting the scope of its search to any particular industry. Management has considered the risk of possible opportunities as well as their potential rewards. Management has invested time evaluating several proposals for possible acquisition or combination; however, none of these opportunities were pursued. Iconic presently owns no real property and at this time has no intention of acquiring any such property. Iconic’s significant expected expenses are comprised primarily of professional fees incident to its reporting requirements.
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming Iconic will continue as a going concern. Iconic’s recurring losses from operations, stockholders' deficiency and working capital deficiency, and lack of revenue generating operations, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
Management believes Iconic will continue to incur losses and negative cash flows from operating activities for the foreseeable future and will need additional equity or debt financing to sustain its operations until it can achieve profitability and positive cash flows, if ever. Management plans to seek additional debt and/or equity financing for Iconic, but cannot assure that such financing will be available on acceptable terms.
 
The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. There can be no assurance that management will be successful in implementing its business plan or that the successful implementation of such business plan will actually improve the Company’s operating results.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
There are no off-balance sheet arrangements between us and any other entity 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 stockholders.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

A summary of significant accounting policies is included in Note 2 to the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011. Management believes that the application of these policies on a consistent basis enables us to provide useful and reliable financial information about our Company's operating results and financial condition.

Code of Ethics

We currently do not have a code of ethics that applies to our sole officer and director.
 
Conflicts of Interest

Certain potential conflicts of interest are inherent in the relationships between our officers and directors, and us.

From time to time, one or more of our affiliates may form or hold an ownership interest in and/or manage other businesses both related and unrelated to the type of business that we own and operate. These persons expect to continue to form, hold an ownership interest in and/or manage additional other businesses which may compete with ours with respect to operations, including financing and marketing, management time and services and potential customers. These activities may give rise to conflicts between or among the interests of us and other businesses with which our affiliates are associated. Our affiliates are in no way prohibited from undertaking such activities, and neither we nor our shareholders will have any right to require participation in such other activities.

Further, because we intend to transact business with some of our officers, directors and affiliates, as well as with firms in which some of our officers, directors or affiliates have a material interest, potential conflicts may arise between the respective interests of us and these related persons or entities. We believe that such transactions will be effected on terms at least as favorable to us as those available from unrelated third parties.

With respect to transactions involving real or apparent conflicts of interest, we have adopted policies and procedures which require that: (i) the fact of the relationship or interest giving rise to the potential conflict be disclosed or known to the directors who authorize or approve the transaction prior to such authorization or approval, (ii) the transaction be approved by a majority of our disinterested outside directors, and (iii) the transaction be fair and reasonable to us at the time it is authorized or approved by our directors.

ITEM 8.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.
 
 
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Iconic Brands, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Iconic Brands, Inc. as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficiency, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 and the development stage period January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2012. Iconic Brands, Inc.’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Iconic Brands, Inc. as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 and the development stage period January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2012, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 of the financial statements, the Company has limited operations and resources, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Iconic Brands, Inc., formerly Paw Spa, Inc. (“Iconic Brands”), was incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 21, 2005. Our plan was to provide mobile grooming and spa services for cats and dogs. Our services were going to include bathing, hair cutting and styling, brushing/combing, flea and tick treatments, nail maintenance and beautification, ear cleaning, teeth cleaning, hot oil treatments, and massage. We did not have any business operations and failed to generate any revenues. We abandoned this business, as we lacked sufficient capital resources. On June 10, 2009, the Company acquired Harbrew Imports, Ltd. (“Harbrew New York”), a New York corporation incorporated on September 8, 1999 which was a wholly owned subsidiary of Harbrew Imports, Ltd. Corp. (“Harbrew Florida”), a Florida corporation incorporated on January 4, 2007. On the Closing Date, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company issued to the designees of Harbrew New York 27,352,301 shares of our Common Stock at the Closing, or approximately 64% of the 42,510,301 shares outstanding subsequent to the merger. After the merger, Harbrew New York continued as the surviving company under the laws of the state of New York and became the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

In anticipation of the merger between Iconic Brands, Inc. and Harbrew New York, on May 1, 2009 the Board of Directors and a majority of shareholders of Harbrew New York approved the amendment of its Articles of Incorporation changing its name to Iconic Imports, Inc. (“Iconic Imports”). On June 22, 2009, this action was filed with the New York State Department of State.

Prior to the merger on June 10, 2009, Iconic Brands had no assets, liabilities, or business operations. Accordingly, the merger has been treated for accounting purposes as a recapitalization by the accounting acquirer Harbrew New York/Iconic Imports and the financial statements reflect the assets, liabilities, and operations of Harbrew New York/Iconic Imports from its inception on September 8, 1999 to June 10, 2009 and are combined with Iconic Brands thereafter. Iconic Brands and its wholly-owned subsidiary Harbrew New York/Iconic Imports are hereafter referred to as the “Company”.

The Company was a brand owner of self-developed alcoholic beverages. Furthermore, the Company imported, marketed and sold these beverages throughout the United States and globally.

Effective June 10, 2009, prior to the merger, Harbrew Florida affected a 1-for-1,000 reverse stock split of its common stock, reducing the issued and outstanding shares of common stock from 24,592,160 to 24,909, which includes a total of 317 shares resulting from the rounding of fractional shares. All share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split.

On August 20, 2010 (see Note 6), the Company and Seven Cellos LLC terminated the License Agreement relating to the distribution of an alcoholic beverage known as “Danny DeVito’s Premium Limoncello”. In the year ended December 31, 2010, this brand accounted for approximately 96% of total sales.

On August 20, 2010, Capstone Capital Group I, LLC, a holder of a Promissory Note with a then remaining balance of approximately $233,000, delivered a Formal Notice of Default to the Company demanding payment of the balance on or before September 1, 2010. On September 16, 2010, Capstone delivered a Notification of Disposition of Collateral to the Company notifying the Company of its attachment of the Collateral (including cash, accounts receivable, inventories, equipment, and contract rights) and its intent to sell the Collateral to the highest qualified bidder in a public sale on September 28, 2010. On September 28, 2010, Capstone acquired the Collateral in exchange for the Promissory Note at the public auction sale; there were no other bidders.

On September 14, 2010 (see Note 6), the Second District Court of Suffolk County New York issued a Warrant of Eviction removing the Company from its Lindenhurst, New York office and the Company ceased its business operations.

On September 23, 2011, Iconic Imports, Inc. (“Imports”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Iconic Brands, Inc., filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 7 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of New York. On March 28, 2013, the Company was advised by counsel that the case (Case No. 8-11-76814) was closed March 13, 2013 and that the claims scheduled were discharged. See Note 9.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a “going concern” basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, as of December 31, 2012, the Company had negative working capital of $4,154,105 and a stockholders’ deficiency of $7,536,518. Further, from inception to December 31, 2012, the Company incurred losses of $16,492,729. These factors create substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company plans to improve its financial condition by reorganizing and acquiring a new business. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing this objective. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

(b) 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 dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
(c) Principles of Consolidation
 
The Financial Statements include the accounts of Iconic Brands, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary Iconic Imports, Inc. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
(d) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The Company’s financial instruments consist of current portion of debt, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, and long term debt. Except for long term debt, the fair value of these financial instruments approximate their carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets due to their short term maturity.

(e) Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

(f) Accounts Receivable, Net of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company extended unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigated the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts was established and recorded based on historical experience and the aging of the related accounts receivable.

(g) Inventories

Inventories were stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market, with due consideration given to obsolescence and to slow moving items.

(h) Property, Plant, and Equipment, Net

Property, plant, and equipment, net, were stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation was calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2012
 
(i) Revenue Recognition

Revenue from product sales was recognized when all of the following criteria were met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement existed, (2) the price was fixed or determinable, (3) collectability was reasonably assured, and (4) delivery had occurred. Persuasive evidence of an arrangement and fixed price criteria were satisfied through purchase orders. Collectability criteria were satisfied through credit approvals. Delivery criteria were satisfied when the products were shipped to a customer and title and risk of loss passed to the customer in accordance with the terms of sale. The Company has no obligation to accept the return of products sold other than for replacement of damaged products. Other than quantity price discounts negotiated with customers prior to billing and delivery (which are reflected as a reduction in sales), the Company did not offer any sales incentives or other rebate arrangements to customers.

(j) Shipping and Handling Costs

Shipping and handling costs were reported as selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, shipping and handling costs were $0 and $0, respectively.
 
(k) Advertising

Advertising costs were expensed as incurred and were included in selling, marketing, and promotion expense. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, advertising expenses were $0 and $0, respectively.

(l) Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718, “Compensation- Stock Compensation”. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, stock-based compensation totaled $18,142 and $18,140, respectively. These amounts consist of stock-based compensation given to the Company’s chief executive officer.

(m) Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the assets and liability method. Current income taxes are provided in accordance with the laws of the respective taxing authorities. Deferred income taxes are provided for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to 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 in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is not more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized.

(n) Net Income (Loss) per Share

Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive securities (such as stock options, warrants, and convertible securities) outstanding. Dilutive securities having an anti-dilutive effect on diluted net income (loss) per share are excluded from the calculation.

Long term debt
    $ 71,869     $ 55,381  
__________
(A) The $100,000 face value of the 7% convertible note outstanding at December 31, 2012 is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.50 per share. The $56,500 face value of the 8% convertible note outstanding at December 31, 2012 is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a variable conversion price equal to 60% of the Market Price, as defined.

(B) These promissory notes were issued to the same entity lender on April 15, 2010. The notes provide that upon an event of default that is not cured within the allotted time, the holder shall have the option to convert the outstanding principal and interest into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.00001 per share. The Company has defaulted on all three notes and has failed to cure the defaults within the time allotted specified in the note default provisions.

While the Company has not received any notice or indication from the lender of its intention to convert the $100,000 debt (or a portion thereof), if the lender does elect to convert the $100,000 of debt and related accrued interest at December 31, 2012 at the $0.00001 per share conversion rate it would require the Company to issue 12,769,400,000 common shares to this lender (or over 99% of the 12,823,761,412 shares of Company Common Stock outstanding after this lender’s conversion). However, by virtue of his ownership of the 1 share of Series A Preferred Stock, Mr. DeCicco would retain voting control of the Company.

Also, the notes provided for the grant of a total of 1,200,000 warrants exercisable at an exercise price of $0.20 per share for 3 years. The $51,600 fair value of the warrants (valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: stock price of $0.092 per share, exercise price of $0.20 per share, term of 3 years, risk-free interest rate of 1.62%, and expected volatility of 100%) and the remaining $45,400 intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature arising from the default provisions in the three promissory notes due to this lender described in the two preceding paragraphs (the total debt discounts are limited to the amount of proceeds allocated to the convertible instrument) were recorded initially as a debt discount and amortized as interest expense over the term of the notes ended June 30, 2010.

(C) In the year ended December 31, 2012, the two entity lenders described in Note 9 paid legal, audit and accounting, and consulting fees totaling $25,240 on behalf of the Company, as follows:

Legal fees
  $ 5,270  
Audit and accounting fees

4. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

On June 10, 2009, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company issued to the designees of Harbrew New York 27,352,301 shares of Common Stock at the Closing. Of this amount:

1)  
24,909 shares were issued to Harbrew Florida stockholders,
2)  
19,634,112 shares valued at $1,963,411 were issued to Company management and employees for services, including 15,972,359 shares to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, 100,000 shares to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, and 2,586,753 shares to Donald Chadwell,
3)  
2,086,973 shares valued at $208,697 were issued to Danny DeVito and affiliates for services,
4)  
4,606,307 shares were issued to noteholders in satisfaction of $2,125,625 of debt and $177,529 of accrued interest, and
5)  
1,000,000 shares were issued to Capstone as part of the Termination Agreement.

Also, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company issued 1 share of Series A Preferred Stock valued at $100,000 to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer for services and 916,603 shares of Series B Preferred Stock valued at $1,833,206 to Capstone as part of the Termination Agreement.

The one share of Series A Preferred Stock entitles the holder to two votes for every share of Common Stock Deemed Outstanding and has no conversion or dividend rights. Each share of the Series B Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference of $2.00 per share, has no voting rights, and is convertible into Common Stock at the lower of (1) $2.00 per share or, (2) the volume weighted average price per share (“VWAP”) for the 20 trading days immediately prior to the Conversion Date. The Series B Preferred Stock has been classified as a liability (pursuant to ASC 480-10-25-14(a)) since it embodies a conditional obligation that the Company may settle by issuing a variable number of equity shares and the monetary value of the obligation is based on a fixed monetary amount known at inception.

On January 6 and 13, 2010, the Company issued a total of 200,000 shares of common stock, 100,000 five year warrants exercisable at $0.22 per share, and 100,000 five year warrants exercisable at $0.23 per share, along with two promissory notes in the amount of $110,000 each (one due March 31, 2010 and one due May 31, 2010), to an investor in exchange for a $200,000 loan. The fair value of the common stock ($45,000) and warrants ($33,930), along with the $20,000 discount, were recorded as debt discounts, which are being amortized over the terms of the notes as interest expense. The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: risk free interest rates of 2.6% and 2.55%, volatility of 100%, and terms of five years.

On February 24, 2010, the Company issued 300,000 shares of common stock to CorProminence pursuant to a 45 day consulting agreement dated January 4, 2010.

On March 16, 2010, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of common stock and 2,000,000 five year warrants exercisable at $0.25 per share to Cresta Capital Strategies pursuant to a one year extension of a consulting agreement. The fair value of the common stock ($350,000) and warrants ($246,000) at date of issuance was capitalized as a prepaid expense (see note 5) and is being amortized over the one year term as professional fees. The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: risk free interest rate of 2.37%, volatility of 100%, and term of five years.

On April 19, 2010, the Company satisfied debt totaling $455,635 through its commitment to issue to the respective 5 creditors a total of 4,556,350 shares of its common stock and 4,556,350 three year warrants exercisable at $0.20 per share. The Company expects to issue these shares and warrants in the near future.

On April 19, 2010, the Company agreed to issue to a note holder 250,000 shares of its common stock in consideration of the note holder’s extension of the due date (from March 31, 2010 to May 31, 2010) of a $110,000 promissory note. The $21,400 fair value of the common stock at date of commitment was expensed in the three months ended June 30, 2010 and included in interest expense. The Company expects to issue these shares in the near future.

On January 18, 2011, the Company issued 1,842,105 shares of Iconic common stock to Asher Enterprises, Inc. (“Asher”) pursuant to Asher’s Notice of Conversion to convert $3,500 debt at a price of $0.0019 per share, resulting in the reduction of debt due to Asher from $60,000 to $56,500.

5. INCOME TAXES

No provision for income taxes was recorded in the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 since the Company incurred net losses in these periods.

Based on management’s present assessment, the Company has not yet determined it to be more likely than not that a deferred tax asset attributable to the future utilization of the net operating loss carryforward as of December 31, 2012 will be realized. Accordingly, the Company has maintained a 100% valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset in the consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2012. The Company will continue to review this valuation allowance and make adjustments as appropriate.

Current United States income tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Lease – Company Evicted from Facility

The Company occupied its facilities in Freeport, New York up until March 2009 under a month to month agreement at a monthly rent of $14,350. In March 2009, the Company moved its facilities to Lindenhurst, New York pursuant to a three year lease agreement providing for annual rentals ranging from $85,100 to $90,283. Provided certain conditions were met, the Company had an option to renew the lease for an additional two years at annual rentals ranging from $92,991 to $95,781. On September 14, 2010, the Second District Court of Suffolk County issued a Warrant of Eviction removing the Company from its facilities. At December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, accounts payable of Iconic Imports, Inc. (discontinued operations) includes $22,913 of unpaid rent due to the former Lindenhurst landlord and $450,021 of unpaid rent and penalties due the Freeport landlord.

For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, rent expense was $0 and $0, respectively.

Licensing Agreements

Danny DeVito Brand

On April 26, 2007 and as amended November 1, 2007, the Company entered into an exclusive License Agreement with Seven Cellos, LLC (“DDV”), pursuant to which the Company was granted a limited license of certain rights in and to Danny DeVito’s name, likeness and biography for use by the Company in connection with the Danny DeVito Premium Limoncello brand. The term of the Agreement was to continue through perpetuity unless otherwise terminated. In consideration for the license, the Company agreed to pay royalties as follows: a) 5% of Net Profits (as defined) to Behr Abrahamson & Kaller, LLP (“BAK”), (b) a payment of 50% of the remaining Net Profits to DDV after the payment described above; and (c) a payment of 2% of Net Profits to Sichenzia Ross Friedman Ference LLP after payment of 50% of Net Profits to DDV.

On August 20, 2010, the Company and DDV terminated the License Agreement.

For the periods presented, the Company calculated agreement defined cumulative “Net Profits” from the brand to be negative and thus did not pay or accrue any royalty expense under the License Agreement. The Termination Agreement provides that DDV has not waived or otherwise prejudiced any of its rights with respect to the Company’s past conduct with respect to the brand, including DDV’s right to accrued and unpaid royalties based upon its right to inspect Company records and conduct an audit of the Company reported agreement defined net profit.

Godfather Brand

On June 12, 2009, Iconic Imports, Inc., the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a merchandising license agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Paramount Licensing Inc. (“PLI”) granting Iconic Imports the non-exclusive right to use the title of the theatrical motion picture “The Godfather” in connection with the development, importation, marketing, and distribution of an Italian organic vodka and Scotch whiskey throughout the United States. Under the terms of the License Agreement, which had a term of 5 years ending on June 30, 2014 and could have been extended to June 30, 2019 upon certain conditions unless it was sooner terminated, the Company agreed to pay PLI a royalty fee of five percent (5%) and guaranteed a total of $400,000 in royalties due as follows; (1) $60,000 as an advance payment due upon signing of the License Agreement, (2) $100,000 due on or before November 1, 2010, (3) $100,000 due on or before November 1, 2011, and (4) $140,000 due on or before November 1, 2012. In addition, PLI was granted warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock in substantially the same form as other warrants previously issued, which is (a) a five-year warrant to purchase 1,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share; and (b) a five-year warrant to purchase 1,333,334 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share. On August 12, 2009, the Company paid $60,000 to PLI as the advance royalty due under the License Agreement. The License Agreement became effective on this date as the advance payment was a condition precedent to the effectiveness of the License Agreement.

The Company never commenced sales of the product named “The Godfather”. The second royalty payment of $100,000 due on November 1, 2010 was not paid. On February 23, 2011, PLI terminated the License Agreement due to nonpayment.

Tony Siragusa Brand

On January 15, 2010, we entered into an exclusive License Agreement with Tony Siragusa, pursuant to which we were granted a limited license to certain rights in and to Tony Siragusa’s name, likeness and biography for use by us in connection with Tony Siragusa’s YO Vodka. The term of the agreement was four (4) years. In consideration for the license, we agreed to distribute net profits of the venture as follows: 42.5% to the Company, 42.5% to the licensor, 10% to William Morris Endeavor Entertainment, LLC and 5% to Brian Hughes. In addition, we issued 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, 5 year warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of our Common Stock at a price of $1.00 per share, and 5 year warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of our Common Stock at a price of $1.50 per share. Tony Siragusa agreed to use reasonable efforts to be available for a reasonable number of promotional appearances during each consecutive 12 months period, the duration of each will not exceed six days. On September 28, 2010 (see Note 1), Capstone acquired the License Agreement rights.

For the periods presented, the Company calculated agreement defined net profits from the brand to be negative and thus did not pay or accrue any royalty expense under the License Agreement. The product was never introduced to the market.

Under the License Agreement, Tony Siragusa had the right to terminate the agreement, upon 10 days written notice to the Company, if the Company fails to launch the distribution of and secure availability to the general public of the beverage throughout the United States prior to June 1, 2010. The License Agreement did not provide for financial penalties that would be accruable by the Company in the event of a default.

Chief Executive Officer Employment Agreement

On January 23, 2008, the Company entered into an employment agreement with its chief executive officer Richard DeCicco. The agreement provided for a term of 5 years, commencing on January 1, 2008.

The agreement provided for the grant of a non-qualified ten year option to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price which shall represent a discount to the market price. Mr. DeCicco had the right to terminate the agreement upon 60 days notice to the Company for any reason. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, if Mr. DeCicco was absent from work because of illness or incapacity cumulatively for more than 2 months in addition to vacation time in any calendar year, the Company could terminate the agreement upon 30 days written notice. The agreement also provided that the agreement could be terminated upon 90 days notice to Mr. DeCicco if: (A) there was a sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets to a single purchaser or group of associated purchasers; (B) there was a sale, exchange or disposition of 50% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s outstanding stock; (C) the Company terminated its business or liquidated its assets; or (D) there was a merger or consolidation of the Company in which the Company’s shareholders received less than 50% of the outstanding voting shares of the new or continuing corporation.

(discontinued operations) includes approximately $233,000 in unpaid compensation due the Chief Financial Officer. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, selling, general and administrative expenses of Iconic Imports, Inc.

Litigation

The Company is party to a variety of legal proceedings brought by suppliers and creditors. We accrue for these items as losses become probable and can be reasonably estimated. Most of the amounts sought have already been provided for through previous charges to operations and are included in Company liabilities at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. While the results of these legal proceedings, which principally involve debt and lease default obligations and vendor disputes, cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the final outcome of these proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future consolidated results of operations and financial position.

For the period from January 1, 2013 through March 20, 2013, two entity lenders (one holding $127,238 of the 0% loans payable aggregating $137,540 and one holding $10,000 of the 0% loans payable aggregating $137,540, the $30,000 6% convertible promissory note and the $70,000 12% convertible promissory notes at December 31, 2012 described in Note 3) paid legal and audit and accounting fees on behalf of the Company as follows:

   
For the Period from January 1, 2013 through March 20, 2013
 
Legal fees
  $ 2,500  
Audit and accounting fees
    2,500  
         
Total
  $ 5,000  

The amounts advanced bear no interest and are due on demand, but are not evidenced by a promissory note.

On February 14, 2013, the Company issued a Convertible Promissory Note in the amount of $15,000 in exchange for the lender's payment of legal and audit and accounting fees totaling $15,000 on behalf of the Company. The Note bears interest at 9%, is due January 31, 2014, and is convertible at holder's option into Company common stock at a conversion price of $.02 per share (or a total of 750,000 shares of common stock). Additionally, in consideration for making this loan, the Company shall pay to the holder a Lender Fee equal to 10% of the original principal amount ($1,500) of this Note on the Maturity Date, which is also convertible at a conversion price of $.02 per share (or a total of 75,000 shares of common stock).

ITEM 9A(T).  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluations of Disclosure Controls

Our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this annual report, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. We believe our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Management’s Report on Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. As defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s principal executive, principal operating and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the Company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records, that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company’s assets; (2) 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 the Company’s management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
 Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
The Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. In making this assessment, management used the framework in “Internal Control - Integrated Framework” promulgated by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, commonly referred to as the “COSO” criteria. Based on the assessment performed, management believes that as of December 31, 2012, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective based upon the COSO criteria. Additionally, based on management’s assessment, the Company determined that there were no material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012.
 
 
18

 
 
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent 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 temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
 
Changes in Internal Controls
 
During the year ended December 31, 2012, there was no change in internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
 
The Company’s management, including the chief executive officer and principal financial officer, do not expect that its disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. In addition, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.
 
Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management’s override of the control. The design of any systems 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. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of these inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Individual persons perform multiple tasks which normally would be allocated to separate persons and therefore extra diligence must be exercised during the period these tasks are combined. Management is aware of the risks associated with the lack of segregation of duties at the Company due to the small number of employees currently dealing with general administrative and financial matters. Although management will periodically reevaluate this situation, at this point it considers the risks associated with such lack of segregation of duties and that the potential benefits of adding employees to segregate such duties do not justify the substantial expense associated with such increases. It is also recognized the Company has not designated an audit committee and no member of the board of directors has been designated or qualifies as a financial expert. The Company will address these concerns at the earliest possible opportunity.

Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer

Richard J. DeCicco, Mr. DeCicco has served as president, secretary and a director of Iconic Brands, Inc. since 2007. Mr. DeCicco also served as president of Harbrew Imports Ltd. since its inception in 1999.

Mr. DeCicco brings a great deal of creativity, market savvy, and brand development knowledge to our company.
 
Auditors; Code of Ethics; Financial Expert

We do not have an audit committee financial expert. We do not have an audit committee financial expert because we believe the cost related to retaining a financial expert at this time is prohibitive. Furthermore, because we are only beginning our commercial operations, at the present time, we believe the services of a financial expert are not warranted.
 
Potential Conflicts of Interest

We are not aware of any current or potential conflicts of interest with any of our executives or directors.
 
Stock Option Plan

We do not maintain any equity incentive or stock option plan. Accordingly, we did not grant options to purchase any equity interests to any employees or officers, and no stock options are issued or outstanding to any officers. We do, however, anticipate adopting a non-qualified stock option plan where we will be granting our officers options to purchase shares of common stock pursuant to the terms of their employment agreements. But, no such plan has been finalized or adopted.

ITEM 12.  SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
 
The following table lists, as of May 20, 2013, the number of shares of common stock of our Company that are beneficially owned by (i) each person or entity known to our Company to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding common stock; (ii) each officer and director of our Company; and (iii) all officers and directors as a group. Information relating to beneficial ownership of common stock by our principal shareholders and management is based upon information furnished by each person using “beneficial ownership” concepts under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a beneficial owner of a security if that person has or shares voting power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security, or investment power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security. The person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any security of which that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Under the Securities and Exchange Commission rules, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities, and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which he or she may not have any pecuniary beneficial interest. Except as noted below, each person has sole voting and investment power.

The percentages below are calculated based on 49,555,062 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding as of May 20, 2013. We do not have any outstanding options, warrants or other securities exercisable for or convertible into shares of our common stock. Unless otherwise indicated, the address of each person listed is c/o David Lubin & Associates, PLLC 10 Union Avenue Suite 5 Lynbrook, New York 11563.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
 
Family Relationships

There are no family relationships between any of our directors or executive officers and any other directors or executive officers.

 
23

 
 
Code of Ethics

We currently do not have a code of ethics that applies to our officers, employees and directors, including our Chief Executive Officer and senior executives, however, we intend to adopt one in the near future.

Conflicts of Interest

Certain potential conflicts of interest are inherent in the relationships between our officers and directors, and us.

From time to time, one or more of our affiliates may form or hold an ownership interest in and/or manage other businesses both related and unrelated to the type of business that we own and operate. These persons expect to continue to form, hold an ownership interest in and/or manage additional other businesses which may compete with ours with respect to operations, including financing and marketing, management time and services and potential customers. These activities may give rise to conflicts between or among the interests of us and other businesses with which our affiliates are associated. Our affiliates are in no way prohibited from undertaking such activities, and neither we nor our shareholders will have any right to require participation in such other activities.
 
 Further, because we intend to transact business with some of our officers, directors and affiliates, as well as with firms in which some of our officers, directors or affiliates have a material interest, potential conflicts may arise between the respective interests of us and these related persons or entities. We believe that such transactions will be effected on terms at least as favorable to us as those available from unrelated third parties.

With respect to transactions involving real or apparent conflicts of interest, we have adopted policies and procedures which require that: (i) the fact of the relationship or interest giving rise to the potential conflict be disclosed or known to the directors who authorize or approve the transaction prior to such authorization or approval, (ii) the transaction be approved by a majority of our disinterested outside directors, and (iii) the transaction be fair and reasonable to us at the time it is authorized or approved by our directors.
