AF OCEAN INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2013



NOTE 1.

BACKGROUND AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION


Background.  AF Ocean Investment Management Company, formerly known as Dinello Restaurant Ventures, Inc., was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on April 2, 2003.  After disposing of the restaurant assets (see Note 9 below), AF Ocean Investment Management Company (together with its subsidiaries, hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Company”, “AF Ocean” or “we”) changed its operations to promoting business relations and exchanges between Chinese and U.S. companies, facilitating international mergers and acquisitions, and increasing co-operation between Chinese companies and Wall Street financial institutions.  The new mission is to help Wall Street investors identify and work with respectable and reputable Chinese counterparts and companies and assist Chinese corporations to understand that the only way to benefit from the world’s biggest capital market is through strict and consistent adherence to the rules and regulations that govern companies listed on American stock exchanges.


On July 6, 2012, the Company completed the acquisition of AF Ocean Investment Management (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., a wholly foreign-owned enterprise (“WFOE” or “AF Ocean (Shanghai)”) in Shanghai.  Pursuant to the terms of the Equity and Capital Contribution Transfer Agreement, which was executed on May 4, 2012, the Company acquired all of the interest in AF Ocean (Shanghai) from Island Capital Management, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, in exchange for $200,000 plus a $100,000 Promissory Note convertible into 150,000 shares of the common stock of AF Ocean.  The acquisition was approved by Shanghai Government; accordingly, a Certificate of Approval and a Business License were issued to AF Ocean.  AF Ocean Chairman & President Andy Fan was in Shanghai to witness and celebrate the smooth transfer. Following the consummation of the transaction, AF Ocean Investment Management (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. became a wholly-owned subsidiary of AF Ocean in China which we believe furthers the Company’s mission of increasing cooperation between Chinese and U.S. companies.


President Fan personally contributed the $200,000 lump sum payment on behalf of the Company and on July 9, 2012, in exchange for cancelling the $200,000 debt, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of stock to Mr. Fan (a stock value of $0.20 per share).




NOTE 2.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Basis of Consolidation.   

The financial statements include the accounts and activity of AF Ocean Investment Management Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, AF Ocean Investment Management (Shanghai), Co. Ltd. as of July 6, 2012, the date of acquisition.  All intercompany balances and activity have been eliminated.  



Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates.   

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of AF Ocean at June 30, 2013 are unaudited, but, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim period. The unaudited consolidated interim financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2012 restated, audit pending consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. These amended financial statements have not yet been filed. The company subsequent to year end discovered additional cash accounts that were not included in the 10-K filing. The Company’s quarterly results are subject to fluctuation and, thus, the operating results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any future fiscal period.


The Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. These principles require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management believes that these estimates are reasonable and have been discussed with the Board of Directors; however, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Quick Link to Table of Contents






Cash and Cash Equivalents.  The majority of cash is maintained with a major financial institution in the United States.  Deposits with this bank may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits.  Generally, these deposits may be redeemed on demand and, therefore, bear minimal risk.  The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.




Property and Equipment.  Property and equipment is stated at cost.  Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over estimated useful lives.   The carrying amount of all long-lived assets is evaluated periodically to determine if adjustment to the depreciation and amortization period or the unamortized balance is warranted. Based upon its most recent analysis, the Company believes that no impairment of property and equipment exists at June 30, 2013.




Foreign Currency Translation.  The Company addressed the effect of the exchange rate differences resulting from the translation of the financial statements of its WFOE into the consolidated corporate statements on the Balance Sheet with an Exchange rate adjustment.  There was a foreign currency translation adjustment in the amount of $365 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.




Intangible Assets.   Intangible assets consist of business licenses in the Peoples’ Republic of China and goodwill acquired in an acquisition during 2012.  Management believes that these assets have unlimited lives and will not be amortized.  




Impairment of Long-lived Assets. Long-lived assets such as property, equipment and identifiable intangibles are reviewed for impairment whenever facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.  When required impairment losses on assets to be held and used are recognized based on the fair value of the asset.  The fair value is determined based on estimates of future cash flows, market value of similar assets, if available, or independent appraisals, if required.  If the carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not recoverable from its undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between the carrying amount and fair value of the asset.  When fair values are not available, the Company estimates fair value using the expected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk associated with the recovery of the assets.  We did not recognize any impairment losses for any periods presented.




Revenue Recognition.  Revenue from consulting services is recognized according to the terms of the consulting agreement.  Generally, consulting revenue will be recognized over the term of the agreement.  At times deposits or prepayments may result in deferred revenue which will be recognized into income as the services are performed.

Share-based Compensation.  The Company may issue stock options whereby all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options are recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements based on their fair values. That expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). The Company had no common stock options or common stock equivalents granted or outstanding for all periods presented.


The Company accounts for stock-based instruments issued to employees in accordance with ASC Topic 718.  ASC Topic 718 requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity based compensation issued to employees.  The value of the portion of an award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods using the straight-line attribution method.  The Company accounts for non-employee share-based awards in accordance with the measurement and recognition provisions ASC Topic 505-50.  The Company estimates the fair value of stock options at the grant date by using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.


The Company may issue restricted stock for various business and administrative services.  Cost for these transactions are measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of the common stock is measured at the earlier of (i) the date at which a firm commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached or (ii) the date at which the counterparty’s performance is complete.   There was no share-based compensation paid in the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.




Income Taxes.  The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provisions of ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes.  The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities.  A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized.




Earnings per Share.  In accordance with ASC 260-10, “Earnings Per Share”, basic net earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net earnings (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common stock equivalent shares outstanding during the period.  At June 30, 2013 and 2012 dilutive earnings per share were not calculated as the effect is anti-dilutive.




Segment Information.  In accordance with the provisions of ASC 280-10, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”, the Company is required to report financial and descriptive information about its reportable operating segments which meet the quantitative thresholds delineated.  The Company has one reporting segment that does not meet any of the quantitative thresholds to require separate reporting.   However, see Note 8 for limited disclosure.




Recent Accounting Pronouncements.  The Company reviews new accounting standards as issued. No new standards had any material effect on these financial statements. The accounting pronouncements issued subsequent to the date of these financial statements that were considered significant by management were evaluated for the potential effect on these consolidated financial statements. Management does not believe any of the subsequent pronouncements will have a material effect on these consolidated



-8-


Quick Link to Table of Contents



financial statements as presented and does not anticipate the need for any future restatement of these consolidated financial statements because of the retro-active application of any accounting pronouncements issued subsequent to June 30, 2013 through the date these financial statements were issued.





NOTE 3.

GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The Company discontinued its restaurant operations in 2011 and continuing to evaluate its new direction.  The Company had $315,000  in consulting fee income for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  During that same period, the Company had net loss of $458. These factors indicate the Company is generating revenues; however, there is still substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.  The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate revenues through its new business direction.   

 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.




NOTE 4.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS


During the year ended December 31, 2012, the majority shareholder advanced $673,281 to the Company. Of this amount $437,244 was converted to shares of stock during 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the shareholder was repaid $58,992. The balance due to the majority shareholder at June 30, 2013 is $177,045.




NOTE 5

NOTE PAYABLE


On July 6, 2012 AF Ocean signed a promissory Note to Island Capital Management, in the amount of $100,000, with stated interest of 5% and a one year maturity date of July 6, 2013.  The accrued interest on the note is recorded as a payable.  The debt discount associated with the conversion to stock at a stated rate was $51,953. It has been amortized from July 6, 2012 to June 30, 2013. The balance of the discount at June 30, 2013 is $1,068.




NOTE 6.

STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY


The Company has no options or warrants issued or outstanding.  


No preferred or common shares have been issued during the six months ended June 30, 2013.  


 


NOTE 7.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES


From time to time the Company may be a party to litigation matters involving claims against the Company.  Management believes that



-9-


Quick Link to Table of Contents



there are no current matters that would have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.


The Company rents office space in New York, New York, Shanghai, China, and Sarasota, Florida.  The terms for each location are month to month and were started on March 1, 2012. The monthly rent is approximately $200, $3,600, and $300, respectively.  




NOTE 8.  

SEGMENT REPORTING


In the third quarter of 2012, we acquired one operating segment, AF Ocean Investment Management (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., in Shanghai, China, which we intend to develop as a provider of business services to Chinese individuals who have investments in U.S. companies.  There was no revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2012, due primarily to the change in ownership.  The following are the expenses attributed to AF Ocean (Shanghai) for the six months ended June 30, 2013. At this time, the operating segment does not meet any of the quantitative thresholds which would require separate reporting of its operations, however, management believes that the following information about the segment would be useful to readers of the financial statements.

Fan, is a large Shareholder and President and Sole Director of the private Hong Kong Company.  After the Share Exchange, which was completed on July 9, 2013, AOIM HK became a wholly owned subsidiary of AF Ocean Investment Management Company.  The shares were exchanged on a one for one basis, resulting in the issuance of 50,000,000 shares of AFAN in exchange for the entire 50,000,000 shares outstanding of AOIM HK.  The only assets acquired were the shareholder base and $500,000 in cash.  With this new acquisition, the Company believes it is better positioned to tap into the huge financial resources of Hong Kong.  Also on July 9, 2013, the majority shareholder, Andy Fan, paid in $280,000 for 28,000,000 shares of company stock.  As of June 30, 2013, $425,000 had been received from the shareholders of AOIM HK in anticipation of the share exchange.


Consequently, after the July 9, 2013 share issuance to Andy Fan and share exchange with AOIM HK, the Company had 85,327,720 shares issued and outstanding.


Management has evaluated subsequent events through September 18, 2013, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.   In 2012 and early 2013, the Chairman of the Board added three (3) bank accounts to the balance sheet that were not disclosed with the internet banking access.  The accounts were not discovered by our former Chief Financial Officer prior to the original filing of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.  Accordingly, the December 31, 2012 financials presented in this quarterly report have been restated, but the audit is pending.  An Amended and Restated 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 will be filed subsequent to this report.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION


The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes thereto.


Forward-Looking Statements


This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements relating to us that are based on the beliefs of our management as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, our management. When used in this Report, the words “anticipate”, “believe”, “estimate”, “expect”, “intend”, “plan” and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements reflect management’s current view of us concerning future events and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including among many others: our potential inability to raise additional capital, the possibility that third parties hold proprietary rights that preclude us from marketing our products, the emergence of additional competing technologies, changes in domestic and foreign laws, regulations and taxes, changes in economic conditions, a general economic downturn, a downturn in the securities markets, Securities and Exchange Commission regulations which affect trading in the securities of “penny stocks,” and other risks and uncertainties. Should any of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in this Report as anticipated, estimated or expected.


Use of Certain Defined Terms


Except as otherwise indicated by the context, references in this report to "AF Ocean" "we," "us," or "our" and the "Company" are references to the business of AF Ocean Investment Management Company.   


Use of GAAP Financial Measures


We use GAAP financial measures in the section of this quarterly report captioned “Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operation.” All of the GAAP financial measures used by us in this report relate to the inclusion of financial information.


Overview


This subsection of MD&A is an overview of the important factors that management focuses on in evaluating our businesses, financial condition and operating performance, our overall business strategy and our earnings for the periods covered.


General


We are an operating company in the business consulting services. We have an operating history from our prior restaurant business and have generated revenues from our prior business model activities that have produced both net incomes and losses in the periods in which we have been fully operational.   We have a limited operating history form our current consulting service business and only just begun generating revenue.


Our Board of Directors believes that we can operate as a business consulting firm during the next twelve months.  A change in the strategic business direction of the company may take years to complete and future cash flows, if any, are impossible to predict at this time. The realization value from any strategic change in operations is largely dependent on factors beyond our control such as the market for our services.   We may raise cash from sources other than our operations. Our only other source for cash at this time is investment by others in the Company.


Employees


As of June 30, 2013, there were five (3) full time employees (two (2) in Shanghai for AF Ocean Investment Management (Shanghai), Ltd. and three (3) in Florida for AF Ocean).  This did not include the three (3) officers and directors who manage the corporation.


Critical Accounting Policies


The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Our actual results could differ from those estimates.  To be as accurate with our estimates as possible, we use our historical data to forecast our future results.  Deviations from our projections are addressed when our financials are reviewed on a monthly basis.  This allows us to be proactive in our approach to managing our business.  It also allows us to rely on proven data rather than having to make assumptions regarding our estimates.

Management does not believe that our actual results are related to any sensitivity in estimates made by management.  The year-end consistency of our results has shown that our prior year’s historical data is the best projector of our future results.


Income Taxes


We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.


We record net deferred tax assets to the extent we believe these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. In the event we were to determine that we would be able to realize our deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, we would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes.


Impairment of Long-Lived Assets


FASB ASC 360 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by an entity be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  We assess the potential impairment of long-lived assets, principally property and equipment, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. We determine if there is impairment by comparing undiscounted future cash flows from the related long-lived assets with their respective carrying values. In determining future cash flows, significant estimates are made by us with respect to future operating results of the restaurant over its remaining lease term. If assets are determined to be impaired, the impairment charge is measured by calculating the amount by which the asset carrying amount exceeds its fair value. This process of assessing fair values requires the use of estimates and assumptions, which are subject to a high degree of judgment. The adoption of FASB ASC 360 has not materially affected the Company’s reported earnings, financial condition or cash flows.


Results of Operations


The following table provides a summary of the results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 and for the last two full fiscal years.

Liquidity and Capital Resources


As of June 30, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents of $611,268.  


In the event we are unable to generate sufficient funds to continue our business efforts or if the company is pursued by a larger company for a business combination we will analyze all strategies to continue the company and maintain or increase shareholder value.  Under these circumstances we would consider a merger, acquisition, joint venture, strategic alliance, a roll-up, or other business combination for the purposes of continuing the business and maintaining or increasing shareholder value.  Management believes its responsibility to maintain shareholder value is of paramount importance, which means the Company should consider the aforementioned alternatives in the event funding is not available on favorable terms to the Company when needed.

Income (Loss). For the six and three months ended June 30, 2013, total income (loss) from operations was $12,357 and $(20,922), respectively, compared to ($80,002) and ($38,177) for the six and three months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The income generated in the current period was directly attributable to $315,000 revenue from the new direction of the company.


Operating Expenses. The increase in expenses is due to the addition of three employees, travel expenses for investigating candidate Chinese companies, and professional services necessary for the new operations and (2) the acquisition of AF Ocean Investment Consultancy Company, formerly known as Endeavour (Shanghai) Business Services, Ltd., in the third quarter of 2012 and its additional employee, professional services expense, and new office rent.


Net Income (Loss). As a result of the factors described above, the loss of $(80,002) for the six months ended June 30, 2012 decreased to a net loss of $458 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


General. At June 30, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents of $611,268. We have historically met our cash needs through shareholder loans, however, in 2013 we have generated enough revenue through our consulting services to cover our expenses, which are generally fees for professional services and general and administrative activities. Nonetheless, we believe that our cash balance is not yet sufficient to finance our cash requirements for expected operational activities, capital improvements, and repayment of debt through the next 12 months.

 

Our operating activities used cash of $148,704 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  Operations used $88,424 for the six months ended June 30, 2012. With $315,000 in consulting fee income for the six months ended June 30, 2013, our operations are not being supported through loans from the majority shareholder.


$8,682 net cash was used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to using $2,954 for the six months ended June 30, 2012.


Financing activities provided $366,010 in the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to generating $512,976 during the comparable period in 2012.


As of June 30, 2013, current liabilities exceeded current assets by $98,010.

Going Concern


The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The Company had consulting fee income of $315,000 and a net loss of $458 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to revenue of $30,000 and net loss of $80,002 for the six months ended June 30, 2012. These factors indicate the Company is generating revenues; however, there is still substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.  The Company is highly dependent on its ability to obtain clients and investment capital from future funding opportunities to fund the current and planned operating levels.  The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to bring in income generating activities and its ability to continue receiving investment capital from future funding opportunities. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts.


Inflation  


Inflation does not materially affect our business or the results of our operations.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


The Company has carefully considered the new pronouncements that altered generally accepted accounting principles.  The Company does not believe that any new or modified principles will have a material impact on the Company’s reported financial position or operations in the near term.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


We do not have any off-balance arrangements.



ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK


The following discussion about the Company’s market rate risk involves forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.


In general, business enterprises can be exposed to market risks, including fluctuation in commodity and raw material prices, foreign currency exchange rates, and interest rates that can adversely affect the cost and results of operating, investing, and financing. In seeking to minimize the risks and/or costs associated with such activities, the Company manages exposure to changes in commodities and raw material prices, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates through its regular operating and financing activities. The Company does not utilize financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes, nor does the Company utilize leveraged financial instruments or other derivatives.


Our operations are conducted primarily in the United States and are not subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk. Some of our products are sourced internationally and may fluctuate in cost as a result of foreign currency swings, however, we believe these fluctuations have not been significant.


ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

 

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Securities Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The Company’s management has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, management has concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.


Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting.
