Monster Arts, Inc.

(A Development Stage Company)

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012

(Unaudited)

 

 NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION & BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

 

On May 2, 2013, the Company amended its articles of incorporation to change its name from Monster Offers to Monster Arts, Inc. (a development stage company) (the "Company"). The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, as Tropical PC Acquisition Corporation on February 23, 2007 ("Inception"). On December 11, 2007, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation changing its name from Tropical PC Acquisition Corporation to Monster Offers. On November 9, 2012 the Company executed a share exchange agreement with Ad Shark, Inc., a privately-held California corporation incorporated April 12, 2011. As a result of the share exchange agreement, Ad Shark, Inc. became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Ad Shark, Inc. organizes advertising sales efforts by constructing media and advertising delivery systems for Smartphone and Tablet application developers including the delivery of mobile banners, mobile video, mobile text messaging, and mobile email advertising.

 

On August 8, 2013, the Company approved the execution of an asset purchase agreement with Iconosys, Inc., a private California corporation which shares an officer with the Company for the rights to domain names, web site content and trademark assignments.

 

The Company is a popular daily deal aggregator, collecting daily deals from multiple sites in local communities across the U.S. and Canada. Focused on providing innovation and utility for Daily Deal consumers and providers, the company collects and publishes thousands of daily deals and allows consumers to organize these deals by geography or product categories, or to personalize the results using keyword search. The Company has been unable to commence its primary operations to-date due to lack of sufficient working capital, and therefore remains a development stage company.

 

The Company earns fees via marketing services including the online promotion of its affiliate partners daily deals through its website, selling of industry data and analysis reports, and executing internet and social marketing campaigns for customers.

  

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN

 

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. Since inception (February 23, 2007) through September 30, 2013, the Company incurred an accumulated deficit during development stage of approximately $7,275,971. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon its ability to achieve and maintain profitable operations and its ability to raise additional capital as required.

 

Management plans to raise equity capital to finance the operating and capital requirements of the Company, and also plans to pursue acquisition opportunities of other revenue-generating companies that provide complementary capabilities to that of the Company. Amounts raised will be used for further development of the Company's products and services, to provide financing for marketing and promotion, to secure additional property and equipment, and for other working capital purposes. While the Company is devoting its best efforts to achieve the above plans, there is no assurance that any such activity will generate funds that will be available for operations.

 

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

  

NOTE 3 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Accounting

 

These financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in The United States of America and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information.  Accordingly, they do not include all the information necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position and results of operations.

 

It is management's opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statements presentation.  The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of the Company and Ad Shark, Inc. as of September 30, 2013. Ad Shark, Inc. was acquired through a share exchange agreement on November 9, 2012. Therefore, the Company only reports the profits and losses from Ad Shark, Inc. after the date of merger. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Development Stage Company

 

The Company is currently a development stage enterprise reporting under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 915, Development Stage Entity. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Reclassification

 

On April 9, 2012, the Company executed a 300 to 1 reverse stock split, which was retrospectively applied to all financial statements.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there are no cash equivalents.

  

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Advertising

 

Advertising costs are expensed when incurred. The Company incurred advertising expenses of $12,097 and $2,630 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

 

In accordance with ASC 605 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 104, fee revenue is recognized in the period that the Company's advertiser customer generates a sale or other agreed-upon action on the Company's affiliate marketing networks or as a result of the Company's other services, provided that no significant Company obligations remain, collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured, and the fees are fixed or determinable. All transactional services revenues are recognized on a gross basis in accordance with the provisions of ASC Subtopic 605-45, due to the fact that the Company is the primary obligor, and bears all credit risk to its customer, and publisher expenses that are directly related to a revenue-generating event are recorded as a component of commission paid.

  

Earnings per Share

 

Historical net (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share include additional dilution from common stock equivalents, such as stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of securities or other contracts to issue common stock that were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that shared in the earnings of the entity.

 

At September 30, 2013, the Company had multiple convertible debentures outstanding that if-converted would result in 3,630,683 new common shares being issued. The Company also has a stock payable balance outstanding related to the Ad Shark merger and other outstanding commitments to issue stock for consulting services which total approximately 16,457,916 common shares.

 

Accounts receivable

 

Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from balances outstanding at year end. Management provides for probable uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to an allowance based on its assessment of the current status of individual accounts. Balances that are still outstanding after management has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we have $6,423 and $5,423, respectively, in accounts receivable $1,250 charged to allowance for doubtful accounts.

  

Equipment

 

Equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which consist of computer equipment, which is 3 years. The cost of repairs and maintenance is charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for equipment betterments and renewals are capitalized. Upon sale or other disposition of a depreciable asset, cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in other income or expense. The Company will periodically evaluate whether events and circumstances have occurred that may warrant revision of the estimated useful lives of equipment and website development costs or whether the remaining balance of equipment should be evaluated for possible impairment. The Company uses an estimate of the related undiscounted cash flows over the remaining life of the equipment in measuring their recoverability.

 

Website Development Costs

 

The Company recognizes the costs associated with developing a website in accordance with FASB ASC 350-50 Website Development Costs. Accordingly costs associated with the website consist primarily of website development costs paid to a third party. These capitalized costs are amortized based on their estimated useful life over two years upon the website becoming operational. Internal costs related to the development of website content will be charged to operations as incurred.

The carrying amounts of the financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities, approximate fair value due to the short maturities of these financial instruments. The notes payable are also considered financial instruments whose carrying amounts approximate fair values.

 

Intangible assets

 

The Company follows Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (FASB) Codification Topic 350-10 (“ASC 350-10”), Intangibles - Goodwill and Other to determine the method of amortization of its intangible assets. The Company’s intangible assets are capitalized at historical cost and are amortized over their useful lives. The Company amortizes its license of SSL5 intellectual property using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 10 years (see Note 8).

 

Stock-based compensation

 

The Company records stock based compensation in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 718 which requires the Company to recognize expenses related to the fair value of its employee stock option awards. This eliminates accounting for share-based compensation transactions using the intrinsic value and requires instead that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method. The Company recognizes the cost of all share-based awards on a graded vesting basis over the vesting period of the award.

 

ASC 505, Compensation-Stock Compensation, establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments to non-employees for goods or services. Under this transition method, stock compensation expense includes compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted on or after January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of ASC 505.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for its income taxes in accordance with Income Taxes Topic of the FASB ASC 740, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date.

  

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

SU 2011-04. In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-14, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820). This Update will improve the comparability of fair value measurements presented and disclosed in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The amendments in this Update result in common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs and they explain how to measure fair value and they do not require additional fair value measurements and are not intended to establish valuation standards or affect valuation practices outside of financial reporting. The amendments in this Update apply to all reporting entities that are required or permitted to measure or disclose the fair value of an asset, a liability, or an instrument classified in a reporting entity’s shareholders’ equity in the financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

 

The amendments in this update are to be applied prospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early application by public entities is not permitted. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 is not expected to have any material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

ASC 480, In March of 2012, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity; primarily originated from FAS 150 and related interpretations. This subtopic establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. The guidance applies to freestanding financial instruments, thus reinforcing the importance of this determination.

 

We have examined all other recent accounting pronouncements and believe that none of them will have a material impact on the financial statements of our company.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from the information provided in Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations", included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.

 

Overview of Current Operations

 

On May 2, 2013, the Company amended its articles of incorporation to change its name from Monster Offers to Monster Arts, Inc. Monster Arts, Inc. (the “Company") was incorporated in the State of Nevada on February 23, 2007, under the name Tropical PC Acquisition Company. On December 11, 2007, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation changing its name from Tropical PC Acquisition Inc., to Monster Offers. The Company was originally incorporated as a wholly owned subsidiary of Tropical PC, Inc., a Nevada corporation. Tropical PC was incorporated September 22, 2004.

 

On November 9, 2012, the Monster Offers, Monster Offers Acquisition Corporation, a Nevada corporation and Ad Shark, Inc., a privately-held California corporation (“Ad Shark”), entered into a Acquisition Agreement and Plan of Merger pursuant to which the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Merger Sub, acquired Ad Shark in exchange for approximately 27,939,705 shares of the Company's unregistered restricted common stock, which were issued to the holders of Ad Shark stock based on their pro-rata ownership.

 

On August 8, 2013, the Company approved the execution of an asset purchase agreement with Iconosys, Inc., a private California corporation which shares an officer with the Company for the rights to domain names, web site content and trademark assignments.

  

Amendment to Articles of Incorporation- Name Change

 

On May 16, 2013, we filed an information statement pursuant to Section 14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Information Statement"). The company's board of directors and shareholders holding a majority of its outstanding voting capital stock approved an amendment to the articles of incorporation (the "Amendment") to change the Company's name from "Monster Offers" to "Monster Arts" (the "Name Change"). On May 2, 2013, the Company obtained the approval of the Name Change and the Amendment by written consent of the stockholders that are the record owners of 21,377,597 shares of common stock, which represents an aggregate of approximately 65.72% of the voting power as of May 2, 2013.

 

21
 

 

The Company's board of directors believes that the amendment to the Articles of Incorporation to change the name from "Monster Offers" to "Monster Arts Inc." is necessary in light of the proposed future business operations of the Company. The Board of Directors believes that the current name defines and limits the Company to an area which is involving less and less the substantial business operations of the Company. Those business operations pertain to daily deal aggregation, which involves collecting daily deals from multiple sites in local communities across the U.S. and Canada. The Company focuses on providing innovation and utility for daily deal consumers and providers by collecting and publishing thousands of daily deals and allowing consumers to organize these deals by geography or product categories, or to personalize the results using keyword search. The Company will continue these operations but intends to expand its operations.

 

The Board of Directors, therefore, believes that the name "Monster Arts Inc." will better reflect the evolution of the Company's future business operations including, but not limited to, growing the Company outside the daily deals space utilizing the core competencies of analytics and research that the Company has garnered during the prior years, including expertise in software and smartphone app development. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, the Company has pending several agreements and/or negotiations with entertainment related firms to build out smartphone applications for their catalogs and/or catalogs for the purpose of promoting and enhancing the offerings and brands for clients.

For the three month period ended September 30, 2013, the Company incurred operating expenses of $476,016 as compared to operating expenses of $185,837 incurred during the three month period ended September 30, 2012. Operating expenses for the three month period ended September 30, 2013 consisted of the following: (i) $326,274 (2012: $30,269) in general and administration; (ii) $69,651 (2012: $147,718) in consulting; (iii) $46,926 (2012: $1,150) in wages; (iv) $6,011 (2012: $-0-) in marketing and promotions; (v) $11,609 (2012: $-0-) in depreciation and amortization; and (vi) $15,545 (2012: $6,700) in professional fees.

 

Consulting expenses decreased by $78,067 to $69,651 from $147,718 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, primarily due to the issuance of stock for consulting services.

 

Salaries and wages increased by $45,776 to $46,926 from $1,150 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, primarily due to the Company’s merger with Ad Shark and taking over the payroll of Ad Sharks officers and directors.

 

Professional fees increased by $8,845, to $15,545 from $6,700 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, primarily due to increased legal fees due to the asset purchase agreement with Iconosys.

  

Therefore, during the three month period ended September 30, 2013, the Company incurred a loss from operations of $458,874 as compared to a loss from operations of $180,087 during the three month period ended September 30, 2012.

 

During the three month period ended September 30, 2013, the Company further incurred: (i) interest expense- derivative of $417,623 (2012: $0); (ii) interest income of $2,267 (2012: $-0-); (iii) interest expense of $-0- (2012: $1,045).

 

As a result of the above, the Company incurred a net loss of $874,230 ($0.13 per share) and of $181,132 ($0.06 per share) for the three month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

Results of Operations for the Nine Month Periods Ended September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012

 

Revenues

 

During the nine month period ended September 30, 2013, the Company generated $37,592 in revenues as compared to $78,168 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2012. The revenue generated during the nine month period ended September 30, 2013 consisted of: (i) $13,750 (2012: $36,250) in commission revenues; (ii) $12,773 (2012: $-0-) in commission revenues to related parties, (iii) $7,869 (2012: $8,585) in services; (iv) $3,200 (2012: $-0-) in services to related parties; and (v) $-0- (2012: $33,333) in license revenues. There can be no assurances that the Company can be profitable or that the Company will not incur operating losses in the future.

 

Operating Expenses

 

For the nine month period ended September 30, 2013, the Company incurred operating expenses of $1,065,257 as compared to operating expenses of $506,355 incurred during the nine month period ended September 30, 2012. Operating expenses for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013 consisted of the following: (i) $385,924 (2012: $200,956) in general and administration; (ii) $384,335 (2012: $261,588) in consulting; (iii) $147,494 (2012: $20,806) in salaries; (iv) $12,097 (2012: $-0-) in marketing and promotions; (v) $34,827 (2012: $-0-) in depreciation and amortization; and (vi) $100,580 (2012: $23,005) in professional fees.

 

Consulting expenses increased by 122,747, to $384,335 from $261,588 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, primarily due to the issuance of stock for consulting services.

 

Salaries and wages increased by $126,688 to $147,494 from $20,806 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, primarily due to the Company’s merger with Ad Shark and taking over the payroll of Ad Sharks officers and directors.

26
 

 

Professional fees increased by $77,575, to $100,580 from $23,005 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, primarily due to increased accounting and legal fees with the year end audit and merger with Ad Shark.

  

Therefore, during the nine month period ended September 30, 2013, the Company incurred a loss from operations of $1,065,257 as compared to a loss from operations of $506,355 during the nine month period ended September 30, 2012.

 

During the nine month period ended September 30, 2013, the Company further incurred: (i) interest expense of $4,520 (2012: $63,635); (ii) interest income of $7,443 (2012: $-0-); (iii) financing expense of $-0- (2012: $16,148); (iv) derivative interest expense of $1,039,558 (2012: $-0-); and (v) loss on debt settlement of $-0- (2012: $2,514,865).

 

As a result of the above, the Company incurred a net loss of $2,064,300 ($0.38 per share) and of $3,022,835 ($1.61 per share) for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet its needs for cash.  The following table provides certain selected balance sheet comparisons between September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012: 

 

  September 30, December 31, $ %
  2013 2012 Change Change

Plan of Operation

 

Management does not believe that the Company will be able to generate any significant profit during the coming year. Management believes that general and administrative costs as well as building its infrastructure will most likely curtail any significant profits.

 

Notwithstanding, the Company anticipates it will continue to generate losses and therefore it may be unable to continue operations in the future. Originally, management anticipated a need to raise $475,000 to fully implement its business plan. After careful consideration and a detailed analysis by new management, the Company now expects it will need to raise $5,000,000 to forward its business plan, and the Company would have to issue debt or equity or enter into a strategic arrangement with a third party. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to the Company, especially with the current economic environment.

 

Management is concerned that the Company may not have sufficient funds to meet its financial obligations for the next twelve months. Management believes the Company can generate sufficient cash reserves to keep the Company operational through the fourth quarter. Management will need to obtain outside funding to keep the Company operational beyond the third quarter. There are no assurances that management will be able to secure outside funding. Management anticipates that the Company will need to spend a minimum of $30,000 over the next twelve months to pay for audit and legal fees to keep the company fully reporting. Failure to secure additional funding can result in the company being fully reporting, but not operational. The Company will require additional funds to build its business infrastructure. In the event the Company requires additional funds, the Company will have to seek loans or equity placements to cover such cash needs. There are no assurances additional capital will be available to the Company on acceptable terms.

 

28
 

 

 

If the Company falls short of capital to keep the Company fully reporting, our officers/directors have agreed to donate funds to the operations of the Company, in order to keep it fully reporting for the next twelve (12) months. No agreement exists that our officers/directors will continue to donate funds to the operations of the Company for the next twelve months; therefore, there is no guarantee that they will continue to do so in the future.

 

Going Concern

 

Going Concern - The Company has recognized an accumulated deficit since inception (February 23, 2007) through September 30, 2013 of $7,275,971. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon the successful completion of additional financing arrangements and its ability to achieve and maintain profitable operations. The financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue to operate as a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. No adjustment has been made to the recorded amount of assets or the recorded amount or classification of liabilities which would be required if the Company were unable to continue its operations. (See Financial Footnote 2).

 

Summary of any product research and development that we will be performed for the term of our plan of operations.

 

We do not anticipate performing any additional significant product research and development under our current plan of operation.

 

Expected purchase or sale of plant and significant equipment

 

We do not anticipate the purchase or sale of any plant or significant equipment; as such items are not required by us at this time.

 

Significant changes in the number of employees

 

As of August 16, 2013, we have two part-time employees and one full-time employee. We are also dependent upon our officers and director for our future business development. As our operations expand we anticipate the need to hire additional employees, consultants and professionals; however, the exact number is not quantifiable at this time.

 

Employment agreements

 

On August 1, 2011, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Ad Shark, entered into an employment agreement with its President Wayne Irving. The term of employment shall be three (3) years, commencing on the August 1, 2011 and terminating on July 31, 2014, or at a later mutually agreeable date. Salary compensation is to be paid at the rate of $88,500 annually, payable on a monthly basis. On the anniversary of employment, this rate will increase 5% annually. At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had accrued wages of $133,145 and $127,219, respectively which are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses balance. In the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company made cash payments to Wayne Irving totaling $63,767 and $0.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

29
 

Revenue Recognition: We recognize revenue from product sales and service agreements once all of the following criteria for revenue recognition have been met: persuasive evidence that an agreement exists; the services have been rendered; the fee is fixed and determinable and not subject to refund or adjustment; and collection of the amount due is reasonably assured.

  

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in rules and forms adopted by the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

 

Management, with the participation of the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, who is also the sole member of our board of directors, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer concluded that, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. Our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the "material weaknesses" described below under "Management's report on internal control over financial reporting," which are in the process of being remediated as described below under "Management Plan to Remediate Material Weaknesses."

 

 Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting, as defined in rules promulgated under the Exchange Act, is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer and affected by our 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 GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

 

  • pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
  • provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and our Board of Directors; and
  • provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements

 

Because of its inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process, and it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Further, over time control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

30
 

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2013. In making its assessment, management used the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO"). Based on its assessment, management has concluded that we had certain control deficiencies described below that constituted material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting. As a result, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 2012.

 

A "material weakness" is defined under SEC rules as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company's internal controls. As a result of management's review of the investigation issues and results, and other internal reviews and evaluations that were completed after the end of quarter related to the preparation of management's report on internal controls over financial reporting required for this quarterly report on Form 10-Q/A, management concluded that we had material weaknesses in our control environment and financial reporting process consisting of the following:

 

1)   lack of a functioning audit committee due to a lack of a majority of independent members and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures;

 

2)    insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements;

 

We do not believe the material weaknesses described above caused any meaningful or significant misreporting of our financial condition and results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2013. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and the lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods.

  

Management Plan to Remediate Material Weaknesses

 

Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth in item (2) above did not have an effect on our financial results. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and the lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods. In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we have initiated, or plan to initiate, the following series of measures:

 

We plan to appoint one or more outside directors to our board of directors who shall be appointed to an audit committee resulting in a fully functioning audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures such as reviewing and approving estimates and assumptions made by management when funds are available to us.

 

We believe the remediation measures described above will remediate the material weaknesses we have identified and strengthen our internal control over financial reporting. We are committed to continuing to improve our internal control processes and will continue to diligently and vigorously review our financial reporting controls and procedures. As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, we may determine to take additional measures to address control deficiencies or determine to modify, or in appropriate circumstances not to complete, certain of the remediation measures described above.

 

 Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

31
 

 

This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of the Corporation's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Corporation's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Corporation to provide only the management's report in this quarterly report.

 

 

 

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1 - Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business.

 

We are not presently a party to any material litigation, nor to the knowledge of management is any litigation threatened against us, which may materially affect us.

 

Item 1A - Risk Factors

 

See Risk Factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 and the discussion in Item 1, above, under "Liquidity and Capital

Resources."

 

Item 2 - Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

 

In the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company issued 9,329,562 common shares of which 861,751 shares were for $454,300 cash ($278,425 received in 2012), 5,164,500 shares were to consultants for services, 160,000 shares were for the reduction of 30,000 in debt, and 3,143,311 shares for the conversion of 13,767,684 shares of Ad Shark. The shares to consultants were valued at the closing stock price on the date of the executed agreement. This resulted in a consulting expense of $516,503 being recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The uncompleted portions of the consulting contracts for future services were recorded as prepaid expenses because the Company has an enforceable right to receive consulting services. At September 30, 2013, the Company recorded $429,573 in prepaid expenses pursuant to future consulting services, further described in Note 4. Of the 5,164,500 shares issued to consultants, 323,833 shares were incorrectly issued and later returned and cancelled.

 

The Company plans to use funds raised through the sale of equity securities to support operating capital which includes rent, server and website support, officer’s salaries, legal fees, marketing, accounting, travel, app development, and administrative expenses.
