PART I

 

Item 1. Business

 

Company Overview

 

Our business focuses on the design and development of solar and power management technologies and incorporates these into its manufacturing and distribution of solar-based portable power stations and devices. Under an Exclusive License/Royalty Agreement with SP Innovations, Inc. (“SP”), we hold the exclusive right to manufacture, import, export, use, and sell a line of portable, solar-powered generators developed by SP. Under the License Agreement, we pay SP a royalty of five percent (5%) of our total wholesale price for all of the licensed products sold by us. We have begun production and sale of our first portable solar-based power generation station, the Solar Survivor. We are currently marketing the Solar Survivor model as a clean, portable electrical energy solution for every American household. We have also begun development of an intregrated battery management and charge controller system for the optimization of electric power storage systems especially those that are lithium chemistry based.

 

On February 19, 2013 we hired Randy Sindelar as Vice President of Research and Development with the expressed purpose of furthering our manufacturing quality control systems and processes and to boost our technology development. Mr. Sindelar is spearheading the Company’s lithium iron phosphate and advanced battery management system technologies.

 

We received our first order from our distributor, American Portable Power, on October 12, 2012, which totaled $85,185.00 with a deposit of $12,500.00 paid. The first delivery of this order was made on January 15, 2013. We were developing an online presence for both consumer and commercial sales with twelve (12) online businesses displaying our product line and have discovered that our sales efforts are better concentrated with a focus on the wholesale, commercial and government marketplaces. We are also developing a sales and distribution network through contracted dealers, energy system integrators, and OEMs nationwide to support our planned sales growth vertically and horizontally.

 

Products

 

We began production of our first (1) product this quarter and have scheduled the production of our next three (3) products in the third quarter of FYE 2013. Each product model features our innovative storage and charge design with the overall product line marketed as the economical, sturdy and reliable choice for portable solar energy as part of an emergency/disaster preparedness plan or for those seeking an off-grid, odorless, noiseless and non-flammable source of power.

 

The Solar Survivor was the first model released and became available for delivery on January 15, 2013. The Solar Survivor is a rugged solar power electrical generator originally housed in a durable hard plastic Styleworks container manufactured by Rubbermaid. The Solar Survivor has been redesigned to feature a customized metallic case with two (2) Inline wheels and telescoping handle that provide users extra easy mobility. The Solar Survivor is powered by a 50AH battery from Universal Power Supply, one of America’s premier battery manufacturers, with power provided by a 45W monocrystaline solar panel, a Windsor 1600 Watt Inverter with three (3) AC receptacles, a USB connection, and a remote control switch. The Solar Survivor configuration provides an efficient source of solar power collection and generation at a suggested retail price of $999.00.

 

The next three (3) models we planned to release were the Solar Tote, the Solar Rescue and the Solar Kart 420. We have discontinued the pursuit of the Solar Tote and have integrated some of its features into the Solar Survivor. The suggested retail price for the other two (2) models is not determined at this time.

 

The Solar Rescue is our premier model that has a water resistant customized Pelican Rescue resin case with telescoping handles and two (2) Inline wheels featuring a foldable 45W solar power film panel, a SunSaver Charge Controller with LVD, a 75AH battery from Universal Power Supply, a Windsor 1600 Watt Inverter with three (3) AC receptacles, a USB connection, and a remote control switch.

 

We are developing and testing our first model targeted for commercial use, the “Solar Kart 420”. The formal name of the unit will be determined in the near future. This portable unit is targeted to feature a Lithium Iron Phosphate battery system complete with a proprietary battery management. This model is scheduled to begin production some time early summer 2013 with distribution available shortly thereafter.

 

Suppliers and Manufacturers

 

We currently manufacture our product line through a contract manufacturer, Installing Dealer Supply, Inc. Installing Dealer Supply, Inc. is a Southern California business specializing in componentized manufacturing and assembling for the past 23 years. It provides use with procurement, assembly and inventory services for manufacturing and finished goods for our entire product line on a per piece cost-plus basis. With staff on-hand at the point of assembly, we work with our contract manufacturer to maintain a high product quality and assure continuity and consistency while managing and maintaining lower production costs. We pay our contract manufacturer monthly based on production.

 

Expansion and Development Plan

 

We have contracted with American Portable Power, an ID Brandz, Inc. company based in Santa Ana, CA as our distributor nationwide. Our strategy includes building an independent dealer base initially throughout the U.S. by attaining a dealer in every state within the third quarter of FYE 2013. To that end, we have contracted with Global Results Marketing (GRM) on January 30, 2013 to lead this effort with over thirty-five (35) dealers having been signed as of the close of its third quarter FYE 2013. We are also targeting niche markets that we believe will be readily receptive to our product line, including the off-road vehicle community and hiking, camping, boating and other recreational activities where a clean, quiet and portable electrical energy supply is needed in a remote or off-grid location. Other potential marketplaces include first responders and others that provide disaster relief or emergency services. Many consumers and businesses cannot utilize fossil-fuel based solutions. With our product line, they will have a choice for safe and “green” electricity from solar power generation.

 

Item 2. Properties

 

We sub-lease approximately 3,000 square feet of office and warehouse space in Lake Elsinore, California from our manufacturer, Installing Dealer Supply, Inc. The space is used to house our executive offices, as well as for manufacturing and storage. We currently pay rent on the space in the amount of $1,383 per month. The sub-lease is currently a verbal arrangement.

 

 Item 3. Legal Proceedings

 

We are not a party to any pending legal proceeding. We are not aware of any pending legal proceeding to which any of our officers, directors, or any beneficial holders of 5% or more of our voting securities are adverse to us or have a material interest adverse to us.

 

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures

 

Not applicable.

PART II

 

Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

 

Market Information

 

Our common stock is quoted under the symbol “IDST” on the OTCBB operated by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) and the OTCQB operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc.  Few market makers continue to participate in the OTCBB system because of high fees charged by FINRA.  Consequently, market makers that once quoted our shares on the OTCBB system may no longer be posting a quotation for our shares. As of the date of this report, however, our shares are quoted by several market makers on the OTCQB. The criteria for listing on either the OTCBB or OTCQB are similar and include that we remain current in our SEC reporting. Our reporting is presently current and, since inception, we have filed our SEC reports on time.

 

A trading market for our securities did not begin to develop until after the fiscal year ended August 31, 2012.

 

The following tables set forth the range of high and low prices for our common stock for the each of the periods indicated as reported by the OTCQB. These quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.

As of December 11, 2013, the last trading price of our common stock was $0.015 per share.

 

Penny Stock

 

The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a market price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation of such duties or other requirements of the securities laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type size and format, as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.

 

The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statement showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.

 

In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement as to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.

 

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity for our common stock. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling our securities.

 

Holders of Our Common Stock

 

As of December 11, 2013, we had 35,646,447 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding, held by sixty-nine (69) shareholders of record.

 

Dividends

 

There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or bylaws that prevent us from declaring dividends. The Nevada Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:

 

1.	we would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business, or;
2.	our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of shareholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution.

 

We have not declared any dividends and we do not plan to declare any dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

Item 6. Selected Financial Data

 

A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements.” These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse affect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.

 

Results of Operations for the Years Ended August 31, 2013 and August 31, 2012.

 

During the year ended August 31, 2013, we earned $37,074 in revenue and incurred $93,727 in costs of sales. Our total operating expenses for the year ended August 31, 2013 were $1,154,067, consisting of general and administrative expenses of $389,330, salaries and wages of $283,706, professional fees of $127,517, and marketing and advertising of $353,514. We incurred interest expense of $21,388, loss on a derivative liability of $10,794, amortization of debt discount in the amount of $92,751. In addition, we generated $2,662 in interest income during the year. Our net loss for the year ended August 31, 2013 was therefore $1,332,991. By comparison, during the year ended August 31, 2012, we earned no revenue and incurred operating expenses of $70,667 and interest expense of $110. Our net loss for the year ended August 31, 2012 was $70,777.

 

During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013, we began operation of our portable solar generator business. As we go forward with the development of our business during the current fiscal year, we expect that our operating expenses will continue to increase significantly and that we will also begin to generate increasing revenues from the sale of our products.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of August 31, 2013, we had total current assets of $199,707 consisting of cash in the amount of $1,960, prepaid expenses of $80,196, inventory of 32,682, accounts receivable of $4,950, a related party receivable of $77,307, and interest receivable from a related party of $2,612. Our total current liabilities as of August 31, 2013 were $937,118, and consisted of accounts payable of $159,596, accrued interest of $19,990, notes payable of $30,000, notes payable to related parties of $290,098, convertible notes payable (net of discount) of $265,992, accrued expenses of $10,159, and a derivative liability of $148,870. Our working capital deficit as of August 31, 2013 was therefore $737,411. During the year ended August 31, 2013, we used net cash of $709,026 in operations and were provided with cash of $695,846 from financing activities.

 

We have received short term loan financing for the launch of our new portable solar power generator business under various promissory notes. Our promissory note obligations currently issued and outstanding are as follows:

 

1.  We owe the principal sum of $33,850 to Argent Offset, LLC under the terms of a Promissory Note dated February 27, 2013. This note bears interest at an annual rate of eighteen percent (18%), with interest payable monthly. All principal and interest was due August 26, 2013. On November 26, 2013, the lender agreed to waive any default until December 15, 2013 under a temporary forbearance.

 

2.  We owe the principal sum of $125,000 to Steven J. Caspi under the terms of a Convertible Promissory Note and Security Agreement (the “Note”) issued November 19, 2012. The Note bears interest at an annual rate of five percent (5%), with all principal and interest being due on or before November 30, 2013. The Note is convertible to shares of our common stock, in whole or in part at the option of Mr. Caspi, at a conversion price of $1.25 per share. The conversion rights under the Note are subject to a limitation under which Mr. Caspi may not, upon any conversion of the Note, own more than 4.99% of our issued and outstanding common stock. The amounts due under the Note are secured by a security interest in substantially all of our assets. The Note is currently in default and we are in the process of renegotiating terms for repayment.

 

3.   Through August 31, 2013, we have borrowed the total sum of $289,998 from our former President and CEO, Bruce R. Knoblich. Our obligations regarding this loan are currently memorialized in a Promissory Note dated May 31, 2013. The note bears interest at an annual rate of five percent (5%). The note was due on November 30, 2013 and is currently in default.

 

4. We have received financing under a series of Convertible Promissory Notes (the “Notes”) issued to Asher Enterprises, Inc. (“Asher”). The Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 8%, with principal and interest coming due approximately nine (9) months from the respective dates of issue. The Notes may be converted in whole or in part, at the option of the holder, to shares of our common stock, par value $0.001, at any time following 180 days after the issuance dates of the Notes. The conversion price under the Note is 51% of the Market Price of our common stock on the conversion dates. For purposes of the Notes, “Market Price” is defined as the average of the 3 lowest closing prices for our common stock on the 30 trading days immediately preceding the conversion dates. The number of shares issuable upon conversion is limited so that the Holder’s total beneficial ownership of our common stock may not exceed 9.99% of the total issued and outstanding shares. This condition may be waived at the option of the holder upon not less than 61 days notice.

 

Upon conversion of the Notes in whole or in part, we will be obligated to deliver the conversion stock to the holder within 3 business days of our receipt of notice of conversion. Failure to timely deliver conversion stock will cause us to incur daily penalties. The conversion price will be subject to adjustment in the event of certain dilutive issuances of securities, distributions of stock or assets to shareholders, mergers, consolidations, and certain other events. Pre-payment of the Notes will result in certain penalties depending on the time of pre-payment, and will not be allowed after 180 days.

 

The amounts and respective due dates of the Notes are as follows:

 

	Date				Principal Amount			Due Date
	March 20, 2013			$	32,500			December 26, 2013
	April 4, 2013			$	15,500			January 8, 2014
	June 3, 2013			$	32,500			March 5, 2014
	August 5, 2013			$	32,500			May 7, 2014

 

5. On June 19, 2013, we entered into a Promissory Note (the “Note”) with JMJ Financial (“JMJ”). The nominal principal sum of the Note is $300,000, with an original issue discount of ten percent (10%). Upon closing, JMJ will loaned us the sum of $55,000 under the Note, with any additional advances up to the total principal sum to be made in the future and at the sole discretion of JMJ. On August 31, 2013, JMJ loaned us an additional $25,000 under the Note. All unpaid principal and interest due under the Note must be paid within one (1) year of the effective date of each advance made by JMJ under the Note. If we repay the Note in full on or before ninety (90) days after the effective date, no interest will be due. If we do not repay the Note in full on or before ninety (90) days after the effective date, a one-time interest charge of twelve percent (12%) will be added to the principal balance of the Note. We may also pre-pay the Note between 90 and 140 days after the effective date, but any pre-payment during this period must be in an amount equal to 150% of the principal amount being re-paid, plus any unpaid interest and fees due at that time. The Note may be converted in whole or in part, at the option of the holder, to shares of our common stock, par value $0.001. The conversion price under the Note is 60% of the lowest trading price for our common stock in the twenty-five (25) trading days prior to the conversion. In the event that conversion shares are not issuable to the holder by DWAC, an additional 10% discount will apply. The number of shares issuable upon conversion is limited so that the holder’s total beneficial ownership of our common stock may not exceed 4.99% of the total issued and outstanding shares. Upon conversion of the Note in whole or in part, we will be obligated to deliver the conversion stock to the holder within 3 business days of our receipt of notice of conversion. Failure to timely deliver conversion stock will cause us to incur daily penalties.

 

We will require significant additional financing in order to move forward effectively with the development of our new portable solar power generator business and our battery management and charge controller products line. We intend to fund the development of our new business through debt and/or equity financing arrangements. We do not have any formal commitments or arrangements for the sales of stock or the advancement or loan of funds at this time. There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, in amounts sufficient to fund our planned acquisitions and other activities, or at all.

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of August 31, 2013, there were no off balance sheet arrangements.

 

Going Concern

 

We have yet to achieve profitable operations, have accumulated losses of $1,411,613 since our inception and expect to incur further losses in the development of our business, all of which casts substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing from shareholders or other sources to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has no formal plan in place to address this concern but considers that we will be able to obtain additional funds by equity financing and/or related party advances, however there is no assurance of additional funding being available or on acceptable terms, if at all.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

In December 2001, the SEC requested that all registrants list their most “critical accounting polices” in the Management Discussion and Analysis. The SEC indicated that a “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results, and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. At this time, management does not believe that any of our accounting policies fit this definition.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company has reviewed issued accounting pronouncements and plans to adopt those that are applicable to it. The Company does not expect the adoption of any other pronouncements to have an impact on its results of operations or financial position.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Board of Directors of

IDS Industries, Inc.

Lake Elsinore, California

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of IDS Industries, Inc. as of August 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. 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 audits 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 audits 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 IDS industries, Inc. as of August 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended August 31, 2013 and 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 10 to the financial statements, the Company has negative working capital, has not yet received revenue from sales of products or services, and has incurred losses from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans with regard to these matters are described in Note 10. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AUGUST 31, 2013 

 

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Nature of Business  

IDS Industries, Inc. (“IDS” or the “Company”) is a GIIRS-rated “green” energy company that designs and develops solar and power management technologies and incorporates these into its manufacturing and distribution of solar-based portable power stations and other solar-based products for consumer, business, government, and disaster relief applications. We offer a line of portable solar power generators under our Company brand name, IDS Solar TechnologiesÔ.

 

The Company was formed as Step Out, Inc., a Nevada corporation on May 2, 2011. On July 18, 2011 Step Out issued 10,000,000 common shares to acquire 100% membership interest in SOI Nevada, LLC, a Nevada limited liability corporation from the sole shareholder. The membership interest was acquired at book value from the shareholder. SOI Nevada, LLC became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Step Out, Inc.

 

On September 19, 2012, the Company entered into an Agreement of Conveyance, Transfer and Assignment of Membership Interests and Assumption of Obligations (the “Agreement”) with our sole officer and director, Sterling Hamilton. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company transferred all membership interests in our operating subsidiary, SOI Nevada, LLC, to Mr. Hamilton. In exchange for this assignment of membership interests, Mr. Hamilton agreed to assume and cancel all liabilities relating to our former business of developing a chain of flotation tank therapy spas. In addition, Mr. Hamilton agreed to release all liability under a promissory note due and owing to him in the amount of $2,000.

 

As a result of the Agreement, the Company is no longer pursuing its former business plan. Under the direction of our newly appointed officers and directors, as set forth below, we intend to develop a business focused on the design, development, manufacturing and distribution of renewable-energy based portable and mobile electrical generators and power stations under our own brand name, IDS Solar TechnologiesÔ.

 

Effective October 12, 2012, the Board of Directors approved a merger with our wholly-owned subsidiary, IDS Acquisition, Inc., pursuant to NRS 92A.180. IDS Acquisition was incorporated in the state of Nevada on September 25, 2012. As part of the merger with our wholly-owned subsidiary, our board authorized a change in the name of the company to “IDS Solar” Technologies, Inc.”

 

On January 7, 2013 we launched our planned new product line on a limited basis; with the initial model, the Solar Survivor. The Company continues to design and development other models of electric generators and power stations based on customer input and feedback.

Effective February 7, 2013, the board of directors approved a one for twelve forward split of the Company’s common stock. All shares throughout these financial statement and Form 10-K have been retroactively restated to reflect the forward split. This event was reported in an 8-K on February 4, 2013.

 

Effective May 29, 2013, the board of directors authorized a change in the name of the company to “IDS Industries, Inc.” The new name reflects the direction and focus of the Company more accurately given the full slate of products in advanced development including the battery management and energy storage fields.

 

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary in order for the financial statements to be not misleading have been reflected herein. The Company has adopted an August 31 year end.

 

Development Stage Company

The Company is deemed to have exited the development stage on February 28, 2013 as it began planned principle operations.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of August 31, 2013 and 2012. 

 

 

Basic Loss per Share

Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. There were no such common stock equivalents outstanding as of August 31, 2013 and 2012.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company continually monitors its banking relationships and consequently has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.

 

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided utilizing the straight-line method over the related asset’s estimated useful life of three years.

 

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; renewals and improvements that extend the useful life of the assets are capitalized.  Upon retirement or disposal, the asset cost and the related accumulated depreciation and amortization are eliminated from the respective accounts and a resulting gain or loss, if any, is included in the results of operations.

 

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method; market value is based upon estimated replacement costs.

 

Allowance for doubtful accounts

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses that result from the failure or inability of our customers to make required payments. When determining the allowance, we consider the probability of recoverability of accounts receivable based on past experience. Accounts receivable may also be fully reserved for when specific collection issues are known to exist. The analysis of receivables is performed quarterly, and the allowances are adjusted accordingly.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

For certain of the Company’s non-derivative financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, receivables, prepaids, inventory, accounts payable, and other accrued liabilities, the carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The estimated fair value of long-term debt is based primarily on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for similar debt issues. The fair value approximates the carrying value of long-term debt.

 

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures.  The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for receivables and current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

 

·

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

·

Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly;

·

Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

 

The following presents the gross value of assets and liabilities that were measured and recognized at fair value, as of August 31, 2013.

 

		Level I				Level II				Level III				Fair Value
Derivative liability		$	—			$	148,870			$	—			$	148,870

 

Stock-Based Compensation

We account for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from non-employees. Costs are measured at the fair market value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earlier of the date on which there first exists a firm commitment for performance by the provider of goods or services or on the date performance is complete. The Company recognizes the fair value of the equity instruments issued that result in an asset or expense being recorded by the Company, in the same period(s) and in the same manner, as if the Company has paid cash for the goods or services.

 

The Company accounts for equity based transactions with non-employees under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” (“Topic No. 505-50”). Topic No. 505-50 establishes that equity-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The fair value of common stock issued for payments to non-employees is measured at the market price on the date of grant. The fair value of equity instruments, other than common stock, is estimated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. In general, the Company recognizes an asset or expense in the same manner as if it was to pay cash for the goods or services instead of paying with or using the equity instrument. During the current fiscal year, the Company issued 3,157,750 shares of common stock valued at $467,448 to non-employees. A total of $402,624 was expensed during fiscal year ended August 31, 2013, and $64,824 remains in prepaid consulting as of August 31, 2013.

 

The Company accounts for employee stock-based compensation in accordance with the guidance of FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation which requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values.  The fair value of the equity instrument is charged directly to compensation expense and credited to additional paid-in capital over the period during which services are rendered. There has been no stock-based compensation issued to employees.

 

Income Taxes

Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method of accounting. Under the asset and liability method, a deferred tax asset or liability is recognized for estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences and carryforwards. The measurement of deferred income tax assets is adjusted by a valuation allowance, if necessary, to recognize future tax benefits only to the extent, based on available evidence; it is more likely than not such benefits will be realized. The Company’s deferred tax assets were fully reserved at August 31, 2013 and 2012.

 

The Company accounts for its income taxes using the Income Tax topic of the FASB ASC 740, which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns.  Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.

 

Revenue Recognition

Sales of products and related costs of products sold are recognized when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred, (iii) the price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. These terms are typically met upon the prepayment or invoicing, and shipment of products.

 

Reclassification

Certain reclassifications have been made to the August 31, 2012 financial information to conform to the presentation used in the August 31, 2013 financial statements.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2012-04, ''Technical Corrections and Improvements" in Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-04. The amendments in this update cover a wide range of Topics in the Accounting Standards Codification. These amendments include technical corrections and improvements to the Accounting Standards Codification and conforming amendments related to fair value measurements. The amendments in this update will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2012-04 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

 

In August 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-03, "Technical Amendments and Corrections to SEC Sections: Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 114, Technical Amendments Pursuant to SEC Release No. 33-9250, and Corrections Related to FASB Accounting Standards Update 2010-22 (SEC Update)" in Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-03. This update amends various SEC paragraphs pursuant to the issuance of SAB No. 114. The adoption of ASU 2012-03 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

 

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, "Intangibles -Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment" in Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-02. This update amends ASU 2011-08, Intangibles -Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment and permits an entity first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test in accordance with Subtopic 350-30, Intangibles, Goodwill and Other General Intangibles, other than Goodwill. The amendments are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim impairment tests performed as of a date before July 27, 2012, if a public entity's financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued or, for nonpublic entities, have not yet been made available for issuance. The adoption of ASU 2012-02 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect.  These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued, that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations. 

 

NOTE 2 – PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

 

Property and equipment consisted of the following August 31:

 

		2013				2012
Property and equipment		$	—			$	10,080
Less: accumulated depreciation			—				—
Property and equipment, net		$	—			$	10,080

 

No depreciation expense was taken for the year ended August 31, 2012 or thereafter, as the asset acquired had not yet been placed into service. The asset as of August 31, 2012 was owned by the Company’s prior subsidiary, SOI Nevada, LLC, of which full ownership was transferred to the sole officer and director on September 19, 2012; therefore, the asset is no longer owned by the company.

The Company’s management plans on raising cash from public or private debt or equity financing, on an as needed basis and in the longer term, upon achieving profitable operations through its business activities.

 

NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES

For the year ended August 31, 2013, the Company has incurred a net loss of $1,332,991 and, therefore, has no tax liability. The net deferred tax asset generated by the loss carry-forward has been fully reserved. The cumulative net operating loss carry-forward is approximately $1,412,000 at August 31, 2012, and will expire beginning in the year 2031.

 

The provision for Federal income tax consists of the following for the years ended August 31, 2013 and 2012:

 

		2013				2012
Federal income tax benefit attributable to:
Current operations		$	453,217			$	24,064
Less: valuation allowance			(453,217	)			(24,064	)
Net provision for Federal income taxes		$	—			$	—

 

The cumulative tax effect at the expected rate of 34% of significant items comprising our net deferred tax amount is as follows as of August 31, 2013 and 2012:

 

		2013				2012
Deferred tax asset attributable to:
Net operating loss carryover		$	479,948			$	26,731
Valuation allowance			(479,948	)			(26,731	)
Net deferred tax asset		$	—			$	—

 

Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $1,412,000 for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur, net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in future years.

 

ASC Topic 740 provides guidance on the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company's financial statements. Topic 740 requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more-likely-than-not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements.

 

The Company includes interest and penalties arising from the underpayment of income taxes in the statements of operations in the provision for income taxes. As of August 31, 2013, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

 

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in the state of Nevada.

 

NOTE 12 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Item 9. Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

 

None.

 

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

 

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this annual report, being August 31, 2013. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our company’s reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Based upon that evaluation, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Management has assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2013 based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. As a result of this assessment, management concluded that, as of August 31, 2013, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective. Our management identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which are indicative of many small companies with small staff: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both US GAAP and SEC guidelines.

 

We plan to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal control over financial reporting. During the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we hope to implement the following changes during our fiscal year ending August 31, 2014: (i) appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management; and (ii) adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting. The remediation efforts set out in (i) and (ii) are largely dependent upon our securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected in a material manner.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to an exemption for non-accelerated filers set forth in Section 989G of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

Term of Office

 

Our Directors are appointed for a one year term to hold office until the next annual general meeting of our shareholders or until removed from office in accordance with our bylaws. Our officers are appointed by our board of directors and hold office until removed by the board.

 

Family Relationships

 

There are no family relationships between or among the directors, executive officers or persons nominated or chosen by us to become directors or executive officers.

 

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

 

To the best of our knowledge, during the past ten years, none of the following occurred with respect to a present or former director, executive officer, or employee: (1) any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; (2) any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); (3) being subject to any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended, vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his or her involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; and (4) being found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the SEC or the Commodities Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated.

 

Committees of the Board

 

We do not currently have a compensation committee, executive committee, or stock plan committee.

 

Audit Committee

 

We do not have a separately-designated standing audit committee. The entire Board of Directors performs the functions of an audit committee, but no written charter governs the actions of the Board when performing the functions of what would generally be performed by an audit committee. The Board approves the selection of our independent accountants and meets and interacts with the independent accountants to discuss issues related to financial reporting. In addition, the Board reviews the scope and results of the audit with the independent accountants, reviews with management and the independent accountants our annual operating results, considers the adequacy of our internal accounting procedures and considers other auditing and accounting matters including fees to be paid to the independent auditor and the performance of the independent auditor. Our Board of Directors, which performs the functions of an audit committee, does not have a member who would qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” within the definition of Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K. We believe that, at our current size and stage of development, the addition of a special audit committee financial expert to the Board is not necessary.

 

Nomination Committee

 

Our Board of Directors does not maintain a nominating committee. As a result, no written charter governs the director nomination process. Our size and the size of our Board, at this time, do not require a separate nominating committee.

 

When evaluating director nominees, our directors consider the following factors:

 

-	The appropriate size of our Board of Directors;
-	Our needs with respect to the particular talents and experience of our directors;
-	The knowledge, skills and experience of nominees, including experience in finance, administration or public service, in light of prevailing business conditions and the knowledge, skills and experience already possessed by other members of the Board;
-	Experience in political affairs;
-	Experience with accounting rules and practices; and
-	The desire to balance the benefit of continuity with the periodic injection of the fresh perspective provided by new Board members.

 

Our goal is to assemble a Board that brings together a variety of perspectives and skills derived from high quality business and professional experience. In doing so, the Board will also consider candidates with appropriate non-business backgrounds.

 

Other than the foregoing, there are no stated minimum criteria for director nominees, although the Board may also consider such other factors as it may deem are in our best interests as well as our stockholders. In addition, the Board identifies nominees by first evaluating the current members of the Board willing to continue in service. Current members of the Board with skills and experience that are relevant to our business and who are willing to continue in service are considered for re-nomination. If any member of the Board does not wish to continue in service or if the Board decides not to re-nominate a member for re-election, the Board then identifies the desired skills and experience of a new nominee in light of the criteria above. Current members of the Board are polled for suggestions as to individuals meeting the criteria described above. The Board may also engage in research to identify qualified individuals. To date, we have not engaged third parties to identify or evaluate or assist in identifying potential nominees, although we reserve the right in the future to retain a third party search firm, if necessary. The Board does not typically consider shareholder nominees because it believes that its current nomination process is sufficient to identify directors who serve our best interests.

 

Code of Ethics

 

As of August 31, 2013, we had not adopted a Code of Ethics for Financial Executives, which would include our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions.

 

Item 11. Executive Compensation

 

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

 

Our President and CEO, Scott Plantinga, has been paid a salary of $100,000 per year. Subsequent to the reporting period, and effective September 1, 2013, we entered into an Executive Employment Agreement with Mr. Plantinga (the “Agreement”). The Agreement provides him with a base salary of $121,000 per year, together with a signing bonus of $25,000, and annual bonuses in the discretion of the board. In addition, Mr. Plantinga shall receive 6,500,000 shares of common stock at the outset of the Agreement and will also participate in future employee stock option programs. The initial term of the Agreement is two years, subject to renewal. The Agreement contains various other terms and conditions and should be reviewed in its entirety for more information. The goals of the Agreement are to continue to retain Mr. Plantinga with a cash salary commensurate with his experience and responsibilities, while also providing him an incentive to maximize shareholder value by vesting him with significant stock ownership.

 

We do not have formal written employment agreements with our other executives. We currently pay our Chairman, Bruce R. Knoblich, a salary of $100,000 per year. We pay our Vice President, George Rodriguez, a salary of $70,000 per year. The salary for our CFO, Pamela McKeown, was $60,000 per year until July of 2013, when she received an increase to $75,000 per year. At this time, we do not have a formal system of compensation for our executive officers. Compensation arrangements with our officers and directors are the subject of ongoing development and we will make appropriate additional disclosures as they are further developed and formalized.

As used in this table, "beneficial ownership" means the sole or shared power to vote, or to direct the voting of, a security, or the sole or shared investment power with respect to a security (i.e., the power to dispose of, or to direct the disposition of, a security). In addition, for purposes of this table, a person is deemed, as of any date, to have "beneficial ownership" of any security that such person has the right to acquire within 60 days after such date.

 

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

 

Except as stated herein, none of our directors or executive officers, nor any proposed nominee for election as a director, nor any person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, shares carrying more than 5% of the voting rights attached to all of our outstanding shares, nor any members of the immediate family (including spouse, parents, children, siblings, and in-laws) of any of the foregoing persons has any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction over the last two years or in any presently proposed transaction which, in either case, has or will materially affect us.

 

1. On September 19, 2012, we entered into an Agreement of Conveyance, Transfer and Assignment of Membership Interests and Assumption of Obligations (the “Agreement”) with our former sole officer and director, Sterling Hamilton. Pursuant to the Agreement, we transferred all membership interests in our operating subsidiary, SOI Nevada, LLC, to Mr. Hamilton. In exchange for this assignment of membership interests, Mr. Hamilton agreed to assume and cancel all liabilities relating to our former business of developing a chain of flotation tank therapy spas. In addition, Mr. Hamilton agreed to release all liability under a promissory note due and owing to him in the amount of $2,000.

2. Through August 31, 2013, we have borrowed the total sum of $289,998 from our former President and CEO, Bruce R. Knoblich. Our obligations regarding this loan are currently memorialized in a Promissory Note dated May 31, 2013. The note bears interest at an annual rate of five percent (5%), with all principal and interest due on or before November 30, 2013.

3.  Over the past year, we have advanced funds in the total amount of $77,307 to Installing Dealer Supply, Inc., a company owned by Bruce R. Knoblich, our former CEO and our current Chairman and member of the board of directors. These advances have been documented under a Note that bears interest at a rate of 8% and matures in 90 days.

Director Independence

 

We are not a “listed issuer” within the meaning of Item 407 of Regulation S-K and there are no applicable listing standards for determining the independence of our directors. Applying the definition of independence set forth in Rule 4200(a)(15) of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc., we believe that Anthony Hama is an independent director.
