Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Statements

Certain statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K constitute "forward-looking statements". These statements, identified by words such as “plan”, "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "should," "expect" and similar expressions include our expectations and objectives regarding our future financial position, operating results and business strategy. These statements reflect the current views of management with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from those described in the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include those set forth under the caption "Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation" and elsewhere in this Form 10-K. We advise you to carefully review the reports and documents we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), particularly our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our Current Reports on Form 8-K.

Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. We discuss many of these risks in greater detail in “Risk Factors.” Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Also, forward-looking statements represent our management’s beliefs and assumptions only as of the date of this report. You should read this report and the documents that we reference in this report and have filed as exhibits to the report completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements publicly, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future.

As used in this Annual Report, the terms "we", "us", "our", Empirical” and the “Company” mean Empirical Ventures, Inc., unless otherwise indicated. All dollar amounts in this Annual Report are expressed in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.
 
PART I
 
ITEM 1.      BUSINESS.
 
            We are a development stage company. Originally our plan was to commercialize a travel and tourism management program and related software applications.  We have since ceased development stages for our software application and infrastructure build out due to the obsolescence and being cost prohibitive of the initial software application and have not as yet engaged in revenue producing activities.  We are currently seeking new business opportunities and have earned no revenues to date.
 
Corporate Background
 
            Empirical Ventures, Inc. is a corporation formed under the laws of the State of Nevada on April 14, 2004, whose principal executive offices are located in Bellvue Washington.  Originally, our principal business was the further development, and future production, marketing and sales via the Internet of a software product called Darrwin. We are currently seeking new business opportunities and have earned no revenues to date.

Recent Corporate Developments Subsequent to June 30, 2013

            On November 28, 2013 we entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with Pstech Corporation to obtain an exclusive license for the use of Psitech's proprietary Mobile Marketing Platform called Go-Page, in North America.

           On February 11, 2014, we entered into an exclusive license agreement with PsiTech Corporation and on March 6, 2014 entered into an Amended License Agreement with PsiTech for the use of Psitech's proprietary Mobile Marketing Platform  called Go-Page, in North America (the “License Agreement”).  In consideration of the licenses granted and other undertakings by Licensor hereunder, Licensee shall pay Licensor a License Fee in the amount of two hundred thousand dollars (US$200,000) (“License Fee”) and 20,000,000 restricted common shares.  The License Fee shall be due and payable as follows:

About Go-Page
 
             The following information has been provided by PsiTech Corporation (“PsiTech”).  PsiTech management has extensive experience in developing in cloud computing technologies, and has gained a deep understanding working with a wide range of enterprises and small businesses to understand the technological marketing needs and challenges they face. PsiTech found that that the average small business owner values and budgets for advertising and promotions through direct mail, media, yellow page listings and that most had a personal social listing but not any kind of online business presence because they do not have either the time or the technical skills to build and manage a website. 
Go-Page is a mobile device friendly page that displays specifically for small screens. Owners of the website administer their go-page on gopage.com (which website is expressly not incorporated by reference to this filing) to their liking, where they can offer daily deals coupons and incentives.

Go-Page provides business analytics to track and offer statistical and retail data so that the website owner doesn't have to. It is an enhancement offering to their customers, analogous to a Facebook or Twitter link. Facebook feeds them social status; Go-Page will feed them relevant locale-data.

It appears that today’s consumers are becoming more present-centered, they are very interested in immediate gratification, and are focused on what is going to benefit them right now. 
 
Mobile applications  require a completely different approach, as it is a completely new format of spatially and contextually driven communications – a new marketing language, serving relevant, congruent information to consumers based on where they are and what they’re doing.

Consumers are looking for specific information or are making quick-decision purchases.
 
Mobile sites and landing pages must provide simple and direct-response functionality — such as click-to-call features and only the most relevant information

Effective mobile optimization of websites and “responsive” design is more than shrinking a webpage down to the size of a smartphone screen. Consumers have an intimate and personal relationship with their devices. People are on the go, the structure of information needs to be entirely different with new properties for maximum user experience. Contextual relevance: The communication should be relevant to the place and the intended user response has to be appropriate given what the individual is likely doing in that place.
 
5

 
Communications should be simple, elegant and navigable at a glance. The communication should promote immediate consumer action. The goal is to reduce consumer friction to have the consumer do something of value to them right now, up to and including making a purchase…now.

Many of PsiTech's clients have inquired about PsiTech  building a website for them so they could take advantage of online marketing programs like the daily deal offered by companies like Groupon. They were in need of a website but the process discouraged them; they informed PsiTech that they found that building a website through online companies was often too complicated, expensive and confusing.

PsiTech has also discovered that the clients that did have websites were frustrated with their sites being outdated, no contact info, no social links, no special deal promotion capability, and no understanding of mobile optimization. We recognized the need in the market and set out to create a “hub” webpage that had all their essential information in one page for SMB’s to connect with customers and promote their business online. As online purchases and mobile purchases via tablets and smart-phones increase, SMB survival depends on being visible and found.

Empirical's management believes that Go-Page is a new way to create a dynamic online web-presence to promote and increase sales for your business. Go-Page is all about making webpage building a simple and enjoyable experience, accessible for everyone. Users don’t need to deal with HTML coding or any of the technical aspects of hooking up the site to a domain and hosting. Go-Page is an affordable, easy-to-use, accessible and secure cloud-based web portal that provides SMBs (Server Message Block) with the power to develop and maintain professionally designed webpages or “Go-Pages”. Go-Pages are search engine optimized (SEO) – visibility; and formatted for computers, smartphones and tablets – mobility. Server Message Block operates as an application-layer network protocol mainly used for providing shared access to files, printers, serial ports, and miscellaneous communications between nodes on a network. It also provides an authenticated inter-process communication mechanism.

The Business Opportunity

How people find, gather and sort information has radically evolved in the last few years and is constantly changing. Almost all consumers now use online media when researching products or services in their local area.

The numbers of media sources consumers are using when shopping for products and services in their local area continue to grow. Yet, despite changes in consumer behavior only half of all small businesses have their own website and less than a quarter of those who do have social media links.  Why?

Management believes that there are two primary reasons for the current state.  First is cost, measured in time and money; many small businesses simply cannot afford the high costs associated with the development and maintenance of their website.  Secondly, many small and medium businesses do not have the internal skill set or aptitude to build and update a basic webpage.  In order to grow, small and medium enterprise has a critical need to market their offerings to existing to current and prospective customers in a cost effective, efficient manner.

Traditional print advertising is costly and not as effective as it once was. A strong online presence is a must in today’s highly competitive online marketplace. Without a visible, accessible webpage, small business risks losing customers to big business and more business savvy competitors.

Intellectual Property

To date, we have not been granted any patents, trademarks, franchises, concessions or labor contracts at this time, however, we are preparing applications for trademarks in Canada and the United States and in the future other jurisdictions, and have no assurance of our ability to continue to use such names in association with the sale of our products and services.

In the future we will enter into confidentiality and proprietary rights agreements with our employees, consultants and other third parties and control access to software, documentation and other proprietary information and intend to apply for other protections in the form of patents and copyrights if applicable. Failure to provide adequate protection our proprietary rights could expose us to infringement of our rights by other parties and could offer similar services, significantly harming our competitive position and decreasing our revenues.

Government Regulation

We currently do not require approval of any government to offer our products and services. We do not expect that there will be any governmental regulations on our business. We will voluntarily refuse to accept orders from the following countries: Afghanistan, Angola, Cuba, Democratic People's Republic of Korea [North Korea], Eritrea, Federal Republic of Yugoslavia [Serbia and Montenegro], Iran, Iraq, Liberia, Libya, Myanmar [Burma], Rwanda, Sierra Leone, Syria, and Sudan. We expect no costs or effects of compliance of federal, state and local environmental laws on our business.

Employees

We have two full-time employees who are officers and directors, our directors and officers dedicate about 40 hours per week to our business.

Subsidiaries

We have no subsidiaries

WHERE YOU CAN GET ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

We file annual, quarterly and current reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC. You may read and copy our reports or other filings made with the SEC at the SEC’s Public Reference Room, located at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, DC 20549. You can obtain information on the operations of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. You can also access these reports and other filings electronically on the SEC’s web site, www.sec.gov.

ITEM 1A.    RISK FACTORS

The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing us. Other events that we do not currently anticipate or that we currently deem immaterial also may affect our results of operations and financial condition. If any events described in the risk factors actually occur, our business, operating results, prospects and financial condition could be materially harmed. In connection with the forward looking statements that appear elsewhere in this annual report, you should also carefully review the cautionary statement referred to under “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Statements.”

You should carefully review the risk factors together with all other information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, and in prior reports pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Our risk factors, including but not limited to the risk factors listed below, are as follows:

SHOULD ONE OR MORE OF THE FOREGOING RISKS OR UNCERTAINTIES MATERIALIZE, OR SHOULD THE UNDERLYING ASSUMPTIONS OF OUR BUSINESS PROVE INCORRECT, ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER SIGNIFICANTLY FROM THOSE ANTICIPATED, BELIEVED, ESTIMATED, EXPECTED, INTENDED OR PLANNED.

The report of our independent registered public accounting firm contains explanatory language that substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern.

The independent auditor’s report on our financial statements contains explanatory language that substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern.  Due to our lack of operating history and present inability to generate revenues, we have sustained operating losses since our inception.  As of June 30, 2013, we had $0 in cash, and accumulated net losses of $172,916 since inception.  If we are unable to obtain sufficient financing in the near term as required or achieve profitability, then we would, in all likelihood, experience severe liquidity problems and may have to curtail our operations.  If we curtail our operations, we may be placed into bankruptcy or undergo liquidation, the result of which will adversely affect the value of our common shares.
 
7

We may not have access to sufficient capital to pursue our business and therefore would be unable to achieve our planned future growth.

We intend to pursue a strategy that includes development of our Company’s business plan.  Currently we have limited capital, which is insufficient to pursue our plans for development and growth.  Our ability to implement our Company’s plans will depend primarily on our ability to obtain additional private or public equity or debt financing.  Such financing may not be available, or we may be unable to locate and secure additional capital on terms and conditions that are acceptable to us.  Financing exploration plans through equity financing will have a dilutive effect on our common shares.  Our failure to obtain additional capital will have a material adverse effect on our business.

Our common shares have been subject to penny stock regulation in the United States of America.

Our common shares have been subject to the provisions of Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the (US) Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), commonly referred to as the “penny stock” rule.  Section 15(g) sets forth certain requirements for transactions in penny stocks and Rule 15g-9(d)(1) incorporates the definition of penny stock as that used in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act.  The Commission generally defines penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price less than US$5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions.  Rule 3a51-1 provides that any equity security is considered to be penny stock unless that security is: registered and traded on a national securities exchange meeting specified criteria set by the Commission; issued by a registered investment company; excluded from the definition on the basis of price (at least US$5.00 per share) or the registrant’s net tangible assets; or exempted from the definition by the Commission. If our common shares are deemed to be “penny stock”, trading in common shares will be subject to additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell penny stock to persons other than established customers and accredited investors.

Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) sales practice requirements may limit a shareholder’s ability to buy and sell our common shares.

In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a client, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that client.  Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional clients, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the client’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information.  Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some clients.  FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their clients buy our common shares, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.

As a public company we are subject to complex legal and accounting requirements that will require us to incur significant expenses and will expose us to risk of non-compliance.

As a public company, we are subject to numerous legal and accounting requirements in both Canada and the United States of America that do not apply to private companies. The cost of compliance with many of these requirements is material, not only in absolute terms but, more importantly, in relation to the overall scope of the operations of a small company.  Our relative inexperience with these requirements may increase the cost of compliance and may also increase the risk that we will fail to comply.  Failure to comply with these requirements can have numerous adverse consequences including, but not limited to, our inability to file required periodic reports on a timely basis, loss of market confidence, delisting of our securities and/or governmental or private actions against us.  We cannot assure you that we will be able to comply with all of these requirements or that the cost of such compliance will not prove to be a substantial competitive disadvantage vis-à-vis privately held and larger public competitors.

Compliance with changing regulation of corporate governance and public disclosure will result in additional expenses and pose challenges for our management.

Changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and SEC regulations, have created uncertainty for public companies and significantly increased the costs and risks associated with accessing the U.S. public markets.  Our management team needs to devote significant time and financial resources to comply with both existing and evolving standards for public companies, which will lead to increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue generating activities to compliance activities.

The price at which you purchase our common shares may not be indicative of the price that will prevail in the trading market. You may be unable to sell your common shares at or above your purchase price, which may result in substantial losses to you. The market price for our common shares is particularly volatile given our status as a relatively unknown company with a small and thinly traded public float, limited operating history and lack of profits which could lead to wide fluctuations in our share price.

The market for our common shares is characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share price will continue to be more volatile than a seasoned issuer.  The volatility in our share price is attributable to a number of factors.  First our common shares, at times, are thinly traded.  As a consequence of this lack of liquidity, the trading of relatively small quantities of shares by our shareholders may disproportionately influence the price of those shares in either direction.  The price for our shares could, for example, decline precipitously in the event that a large number of our common shares are sold on the market without commensurate demand, as compared to a seasoned issuer which could better absorb those sales without adverse impact on its share price.  Second, we are a speculative or “risky” investment due to our limited operating history, lack of profits to date and uncertainty of future market acceptance for our potential products. As a consequence, more risk-adverse investors may, under the fear of losing all or most of their investment in the event of negative news or lack of progress, be more inclined to sell their shares on the market more quickly and at greater discounts than would be the case with the stock of a seasoned issuer.  Many of these factors are beyond our control and may decrease the market price of our common shares, regardless of our performance.  We cannot make any predictions as to what the prevailing market price for our common shares will be at any time or as to what affect that the sale of shares or the availability of common shares for sale at any time will have on the prevailing market price.

Shareholders should be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse.  Such patterns include control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer;  manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses.  Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market.  Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities.  The occurrence of these patterns or practices could increase the volatility of our share price.

Volatility in our common share price may subject us to securities litigation, thereby diverting our resources that may have a material effect on our profitability and results of operations.

The market for our common shares is characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share price will continue to be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future.  In the past, plaintiffs have often initiated securities class action litigation against a company following periods of volatility in the market price of its securities.  We may in the future be the target of similar litigation.  This type of litigation could result in substantial costs and could divert management’s attention and resources.

Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) could have a material adverse effect on our business and our operating results.

If we fail to comply with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act regarding internal control over financial reporting or to remedy any material weaknesses in our internal controls that we may identify, such failure could result in material misstatements in our financial statements, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and have a negative effect on the trading price of our common shares.

Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and current SEC regulations, we are required to prepare assessments regarding internal controls over financial reporting.  In connection with our on-going assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, we may discover “material weaknesses” in our internal controls as defined in standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or the PCAOB.  A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.  The PCAOB defines “significant deficiency” as a deficiency that results in more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected.
 
9

 
In the event that a material weakness is identified, as it has been for this report, subject to expansion of the size of our Company and our finance department, we will employ qualified personnel and adopt and implement policies and procedures to address any material weaknesses that we identify.  However, the process of designing and implementing effective internal controls is a continuous effort that requires us to anticipate and react to changes in our business and the economic and regulatory environments and to expend significant resources to maintain a system of internal controls that is adequate to satisfy our reporting obligations as a public company.  We cannot assure you that the measures we will take will remediate any material weaknesses that we may identify or that we will implement and maintain adequate controls over our financial process and reporting in the future.

Any failure to complete our assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, to remediate any material weaknesses that we may identify or to implement new controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our operating results, cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations or result in material misstatements in our financial statements.  Any such failure could adversely affect the results of the management evaluations of our internal controls.  Inadequate internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our common shares.

Should we lose the services of our key executives, our financial condition and proposed expansion may be negatively impacted.

We depend on the continued contributions of our executive officers to work effectively as a team, to execute our business strategy and to manage our business.  The loss of key personnel, or their failure to work effectively, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.  Specifically, we rely on Derek Ward, our Chief Executive Officer, Peter Schulhof, our President, Stewart Irvine, our Chief Operating Officer and Anthony Jackson, our Chief Financial Officer.  We do not maintain key man life insurance.  Should we lose any or all of their services and we are unable to replace their services with equally competent and experienced personnel, our operational goals and strategies may be adversely affected, which will negatively affect our potential revenues.

We do not intend to pay dividends.

We do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common shares in the foreseeable future.  We may not have sufficient funds to legally pay dividends.  Even if funds are legally available to pay dividends, we may nevertheless decide, in our sole discretion, not to pay dividends.  The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors, and will depend upon, among other things, the results of our operations, cash flows and financial condition, operating and capital requirements, and other factors our board of directors may consider relevant.  There is no assurance that we will pay any dividends in the future, and, if dividends are paid, there is no assurance with respect to the amount of any such dividend.

We are exposed to general economic conditions, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Recently there have been adverse conditions and uncertainty in the global economy as the result of unstable global financial and credit markets, inflation, and recession. These unfavorable economic conditions and the weakness of the credit market may continue to have, an impact on our Company’s business and our Company’s financial condition. The current global macroeconomic environment may affect our Company’s ability to access the capital markets may be severely restricted at a time when our Company wishes or needs to access such markets, which could have a materially adverse impact on our Company’s flexibility to react to changing economic and business conditions or carry on our operations.

Future issuances of shares for various considerations including working capital and operating expenses will increase the number of shares outstanding which will dilute existing investors and may have a depressive effect on the company's stock price.

There may be substantial dilution to our shareholders purchasing in future offerings as a result of future decisions of the Board of Directors to issue shares without shareholder approval for cash, services, payment of debt or acquisitions.

Public disclosure requirements and compliance with changing regulation of corporate governance pose challenges for our management team and result in additional expenses and costs which may reduce the focus of management and the profitability of our company.

Changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and SEC regulations, have created uncertainty for public companies and significantly increased the costs and risks associated with accessing the U.S. public markets. Our management team will need to devote significant time and financial resources to comply with both existing and evolving standards for public companies, which will lead to increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue generating activities to compliance activities.

SHOULD ONE OR MORE OF THE FOREGOING RISKS OR UNCERTAINTIES MATERIALIZE, OR SHOULD THE UNDERLYING ASSUMPTIONS PROVE INCORRECT, ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER SIGNIFICANTLY FROM THOSE ANTICIPATED, BELIEVED, ESTIMATED, EXPECTED, INTENDED OR PLANNED

Record Holders

As of June 30, 2013, an aggregate of 9,586,662 shares of our Common Stock were issued and outstanding and were owned by approximately 37 holders of record, based on information provided by our transfer agent.
 
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

As of June 30, 2013 we have sold 9,586,662 shares of unregistered securities. All of these 9,586,662 shares were acquired from us in private placements that were exempt from registration under Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933 and were sold to Canadian residents.

The shares include the following:

1.   On May 7, 2004, we issued 5,000,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.001 per share for cash proceeds of $5,000 to our President (the funds from this offering were received by May 7, 2004); and

2.   Between May 8, 2004 and November 30, 2004 we issued 4,586,662 shares of common stock to 37 non-affiliate Canadian residents at a price of $0.015 per share for cash proceeds of $68,800

The offer and sale of all shares of our common shares and warrants listed above were affected in reliance on the exemptions for sales of securities not involving a public offering, as set forth in Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act. The Investor acknowledged the following: Subscriber is not a United States Person, nor is the Subscriber acquiring the shares of our common stock and warrants directly or indirectly for the account or benefit of a United States Person. None of the funds used by the Subscriber to purchase the shares of our common stock and warrants have been obtained from United States Persons. For purposes of this Agreement, "United States Person" within the meaning of U.S. tax laws, means a citizen or resident of the United States, any former U.S. citizen subject to Section 877 of the Internal Revenue Code, any corporation, or partnership organized or existing under the laws of the United States of America or any state, jurisdiction, territory or possession thereof and any estate or trust the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax irrespective of its source, and within the meaning of U.S. securities laws, as defined in Rule 902(o) of Regulation S, means: (i) any natural person resident in the United States; (ii) any partnership or corporation organized or incorporated under the laws of the United States; (iii) any estate of which any executor or administrator is a U.S. person; (iv) any trust of which any trustee is a U.S. person; (v) any agency or branch of a foreign entity located in the United States; (vi) any non-discretionary account or similar account (other than an estate or trust) held by a dealer or other fiduciary for the benefit or account of a U.S. person; (vii) any discretionary account or similar account (other than an estate or trust) held by a dealer or other fiduciary organized, incorporated, or (if an individual) resident in the United States; and (viii) any partnership or corporation if organized under the laws of any foreign jurisdiction, and formed by a U.S. person principally for the purpose of investing in securities not registered under the Securities Act, unless it is organized or incorporated, and owned, by accredited investors (as defined in Rule 501(a)) who are not natural persons, estates or trusts. Further, we anticipate that additional funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock. However, we cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding for additional phases of exploration. We currently believe that debt financing will not be an alternative for funding additional phases of exploration. We do not have any arrangements in place for any future equity financing.

Re-Purchase of Equity Securities

None.
 
Dividends

              We have not declared any dividends on our common stock since our inception. There are no dividend restrictions that limit our ability to pay dividends on our common stock in our Articles of Incorporation or bylaws. Chapter 78 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the “NRS”), does provide certain limitations on our ability to declare dividends. Section 78.288 of Chapter 78 of the NRS prohibits us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend we would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or except as may be allowed by our Articles of Incorporation, our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed, if we were to be dissolved at the time of the distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights upon dissolution of stockholders who may have preferential rights and whose preferential rights are superior to those receiving the distribution.
 
Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans
 
None.

ITEM 6.        SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.

ITEM 7.        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
 
OPERATIONS ("MD&A")
 
The following is management’s discussion and analysis (|MD&A”) of certain significant factors that have affected our financial position and operating results during the periods included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, as well as information relating to the plans of our current management. This report includes forward-looking statements. Generally, the words “believes,” “anticipates,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “continue,” and similar expressions or the negative thereof or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including the matters set forth in this report or other reports or documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time, which could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those projected. Undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements which speak only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to update these forward-looking statements.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto and other financial information contained elsewhere in this Form 10-K
 
          The Company's MD&A is comprised of significant accounting estimates made in the normal course of its operations, overview of the Company's business conditions, results of operations, liquidity and capital resources and contractual obligations. The Company did not have any off balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2012 or June 30, 2013.
 
The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations is based upon its financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (or "GAAP"). The preparation of those financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of its financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
 
Our Ability To Continue as a Going Concern

Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued its report in connection with the audit of our financial statements as of June 30, 2013 and 2012 included an explanatory paragraph describing the existence of conditions that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements as of June 30, 2013 have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. If we are not able to continue as a going concern, it is likely that holders of our common stock will lose all of their investment. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Operating Expenses and Net Loss

Operating expenses for the year ended June 30, 2013 was $8compared with $1,174 for the year ended June 30, 2012. The decrease in operating expenditures was a result of the reduced costs of their ongoing reporting requirements.

Net loss for the year ended June 30, 2013 was $8compared with net loss of $1,174 for the year ended June 30, 2012. The overall decrease in net loss was attributed to the reduced costs of their ongoing reporting requirements.

As at June 30, 2013, our cash balance was $0 compared to $8 as at June 30, 2012 and its total assets were $0 compared with $8 as at June 30, 2012 The decrease in total assets is attributed to the decrease of cash and inability to settle obligations

 As at June 30, 2013, we had total liabilities of $99,616 compared with total liabilities of $99,616 as at June 30, 2012. The total liabilities have not changed and this has been attributed to lack of available funding and in ability to settle obligations

Cashflow from Financing Activities

During the year ended June 30, 2013, the Company received $0 of cash from financing activities compared to $0 for the year ended June 30, 2012.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no significant 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.

Future Financings

We will continue to rely on equity sales of our common shares in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of the equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund planned acquisitions

Climate Change

Our opinion is that neither climate change, nor governmental regulations related to climate change, have had, or are expected to have, any material effect on our operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

We have identified certain accounting policies, described below, that are most important to the portrayal of our current financial condition and results of operations. Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in the notes to the audited financial statements included in this Annual Report.

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 amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes for the reporting period. Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates relate to the valuation of its business.
 
Development Stage Enterprise

Our financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting. We are a development stage company as we devote substantially all of our efforts to acquiring and developing businesses. Until such business are acquired and developed, we will continue to prepare our financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with entities in the development stage.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

We do not expect the adoption of any recent accounting pronouncements to have a material impact on its financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Empirical Ventures, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
 
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Empirical Ventures, Inc. (A Development Stage “Company”) as of June 30, 2013and 2012 and the related statement of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 and for the period from July 1, 2008 to June 30, 2013. 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 audit.The financial statements of the Company from April 14, 2004 (Inception) through June 30, 2008, were audited by other auditors, whose report, dated November 20, 2008, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statementsand also included an explanatory paragraph that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits include 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. Our audits include examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also include 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 Empirical Ventures, Inc. as of June 30, 2013 and 2012, and the result of its operations and its cash flows for the period endedJune 30, 2013 and 2012and for the period from July 1, 2008 to June 30, 2013in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has had no revenues and earnings since inception. These conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 2, which includes achieving profitable operations and raising additional funds through financing. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Empirical Ventures, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on April 14, 2004.  The Company is a development stage company. The Company’s plan is to commercialize an enterprise and related software applications. The Company is in the early stages of the software application and infrastructure build out, and has not as yet engaged in revenue producing activities.  The Company will provide products and services to enable the travel and tourism industries to more effectively manage all travel and tourism related services. The Company’s objective was to complete development and pre-marketing activities and to actively market and support a commercial product and to earn revenues from the travel and tourism industries or other related organizations worldwide via the Internet from the Company’s website. The Darrwin software development has since been abandoned due to the obsolescence of the program. The company is currently seeking new business opportunities.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

These financial statements are presented on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business over a reasonable length of time. As of June 30, 2013 the Company had $0 in cash, and accumulated net losses of $172,916 since inception. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Its continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis and to obtain additional financing or refinancing as may be required. The Company will attempt to locate and negotiate with a business entity for the combination of a target company.  No assurances can be given that the Company will be successful in locating or negotiating with any target company. The Company has been formed to provide a method for a foreign or domestic private company to become a reporting company with a class of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Management's plans for the continuation of the Company as a going concern include financing the Company's operations through issuance of its common stock. If the Company is unable to complete its financing requirements or achieve revenue as projected, it will then modify its expenditures and plan of operations to coincide with the actual financing completed and actual operating revenues. There are no assurances, however, with respect to the future success of these plans.  Unless otherwise indicated, amounts provided in these notes to the financial statements pertain to continuing operations. The Company is not currently earning any revenues.

NOTE 3 –SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Development Stage Company

All of our operating results and cash flows reported in the accompanying financial statements from April 14, 2004 through June 30, 2013 are considered to be those related to development stage activities and represent the 'cumulative from inception' amounts from our development stage activities required to be reported pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 915, Development Stage Entities.

Basis of Presentation
 
These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and are expressed in United States (US) dollars. The Company has not produced any revenue from its principal business and is a development stage company.

EMPIRICAL VENTURES, INC.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 these financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 Start-up Expenses

The Company has adopted an accounting policy which requires that costs associated with start-up activities be expensed as incurred. Accordingly, start-up costs associated with the Company's formation have been included in the Company's general and administrative expenses for the period from inception on April 14, 2004 to June 30, 2013

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Loss per Share

The Company computed basic and diluted loss per share amounts using generally accepted accounting principles  There are no potentially dilutive shares outstanding and, accordingly, dilutive per share amounts have not been presented in the accompanying statements of operations.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments - On July 1, 2008, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("Topic 820"). Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follows:
 
 
Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
 
 
Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
 
 
Level 3 inputs to valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair measurement.

The Company’s adoption of fair value measurements and disclosures did not have a material impact on the financial statements and financial statement disclosures.

Income Taxes
 
The Company records income taxes in accordance with the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” The standard requires, among other provisions, an asset and liability approach to recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax basis of assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are provided if based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Adopted

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-04, Liabilities (Topic 405): Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The amendments in ASU 2013-04 provide guidance for the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of this update is fixed at the reporting date, except for obligations addressed within existing guidance in U.S. GAAP. The guidance requires an entity to measure those obligations as the sum of the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors and any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. The guidance in this Update also requires an entity to disclose the nature and amount of the obligation as well as other information about those obligations. The amendment in this standard is effective retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. We are evaluating the effect, if any, adoption of ASU No. 2013-04 will have on our financial statements.

In April 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-07, Presentation of Financial Statements (Top 205): Liquidation Basis of Accounting.

NOTE 8 - INCOME TAXES

The Company has incurred operating losses of $172,916, which, if utilized, will begin to expire in 2022. Future tax benefits, which may arise as a result of these losses, have not been recognized in these financial statements and have been offset by a valuation allowance.
 
The tax effects of temporary differences which give rise to significant portions of the deferred taxes are summarized as follows:
 
   
As of June 30, 2013
   
As of June 30, 2012
 
Deferred tax assets:
           
Net operating loss (from inception to June 30, 2013)
  $ 172,916     $ 172,908  
Statutory tax rate (combined federal and state)
    34 %     34 %
                 
Deferred tax assets
    58,791       58,789  
Valuation allowance
    (58,791 )     (58,789 )
                 
Net deferred tax assets
  $ -0-     $ -0-  
 
The potential future tax benefits of these losses have not been recognized in these financial statements due to the uncertainty of their utilization. When the future utilization of some portion of the carry-forwards is determined not to be "more likely than not" a valuation allowance is provided to reduce the recorded tax benefits from such assets.
As a result of the implementation of certain provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes, the Company performed an analysis of its previous tax filings and determined that there were no positions taken that it considered uncertain. Therefore, there were no unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2013 and 2012.
 
Future changes in the unrecognized tax benefit are not expected to have an impact on the effective tax rate due to the existence net operating losses. The Company estimates that the unrecognized tax benefit will not change within the next twelve months. The Company will continue to classify income tax penalties and interest, if any, as part of interest and other expenses in its statements of operations. The Company has incurred no interest or penalties as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.

ITEM 9A.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2013. Based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, and in light of the material weaknesses found in our internal controls over financial reporting, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2013 using the criteria established in “Internal Control - Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO").  
 
18

 
                A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2013, the Company determined that there were control deficiencies that constituted material weaknesses, as described below.
 
     
1.     
We do not have an Audit Committee – While not being legally obligated to have an audit committee, it is the management’s view that such a committee, including a financial expert member, is an utmost important entity level control over the Company’s financial statements. Currently the Board of Directors acts in the capacity of the Audit Committee, and does not include a member that is considered to be independent of management to provide the necessary oversight over management’s activities.
 
   
 
2.     
We did not maintain appropriate cash controls – As of June 30, 2013, the Company has not maintained sufficient internal controls over financial reporting for the cash process, including failure to segregate cash handling and accounting functions, and did not require dual signature on the Company’s bank accounts.  Alternatively, the effects of poor cash controls were mitigated by the fact that the Company had limited transactions in their bank accounts.
     
 
3.
We did not implement appropriate information technology controls – As at June 30, 2013, the Company retains copies of all financial data and material agreements; however there is no formal procedure or evidence of normal backup of the Company’s data or off-site storage of the data in the event of theft, misplacement, or loss due to unmitigated factors.
     
Accordingly, the Company concluded that these control deficiencies resulted in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the 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 the material weaknesses described above, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2013 based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by COSO. 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with our evaluation we conducted of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2013 that occurred during our fourth fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.  

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

Continuing Remediation Efforts to address deficiencies in Company’s Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Once the Company is engaged in a business of merit and has sufficient personnel available, then our Board of Directors, in particular and in connection with the aforementioned deficiencies, will establish the following remediation measures:

     
 
1.
Our Board of Directors will nominate an audit committee or a financial expert on our Board of Directors in the next fiscal year.
   
 
2.
We will appoint additional personnel to assist with the preparation of the Company’s monthly financial reporting, including preparation of the monthly bank reconciliations.

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert

The Company does not have an audit committee or an audit committee financial expert (as defined in Item 407 of Regulation S-K) serving on its Board of Directors. All current members of the Board of Directors lack sufficient financial expertise for overseeing financial reporting responsibilities.  The Company has not yet employed an audit committee financial expert on its Board due to the inability to attract such a person.

The Company intends to establish an audit committee of the board of directors, which will consist of independent directors. The audit committee’s duties will be to recommend to the Company’s board of directors the engagement of an independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company’s financial statements and to review the Company’s accounting and auditing principles.

The audit committee will review the scope, timing and fees for the annual audit and the results of audit examinations performed by the internal auditors and Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, including their recommendations to improve the system of accounting and internal controls. The audit committee will at all times be composed exclusively of directors who are, in the opinion of the Company’s board of directors, free from any relationship which would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment as a committee member and who possess an understanding of financial statements and generally accepted accounting principles.

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a Code of Ethics (the “Code”) that applies to our directors, officers and employees, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.  A written copy of the Code is available on written request to the Company and is filed with the SEC hereto as Exhibit 14.1.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our directors, executive officers, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of change in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of the Company. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based solely upon a review of Forms 3 and 4 and amendments thereto furnished to us under Rule 16a-3(e) during the year ended June 30, 2013, Forms 5 and any amendments thereto furnished to us with respect to the year ended June 30, 2013, and the representations made by the reporting persons to us, we believe that during the year ended June 30, 2013, our executive officers and directors and all persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities have not complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements.

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

Related Party Transactions

None of the directors or executive officers of the Company, nor any person who owned of record or was known to own beneficially more than 5% of the Company’s outstanding shares of its Common Stock, nor any associate or affiliate of such persons or companies, has any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction that has occurred during the past fiscal year, or in any proposed transaction, which has materially affected or will affect the Company.
 
With regard to any future related party transaction, we plan to fully disclose any and all related party transactions in the following manner:
 
·         Disclosing such transactions in reports where required;
 
·         Disclosing in any and all filings with the SEC, where required;
 
·         Obtaining disinterested directors consent; and
 
·         Obtaining shareholder consent where required.
 
Director Independence

For purposes of determining director independence, we have applied the definitions set out in NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2). The OTCBB on which shares of common stock are quoted does not have any director independence requirements.

According to the NASDAQ definition, Derek Ward is not an independent director because he is also an executive officer of the Company.

According to the NASDAQ definition, Peter Schulhof is not an independent director because he is an officer of the Company.

According to the NASDAQ definition, Stewart Irvine is not an independent director because he is  an officer of the Company.

According to the NASDAQ definition, Anthony Jackson is not an independent director because he is an officer of the Company
