PART I
 
Item 1       Business
 
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
 
In General
 
Elray Resources, Inc. (“Elray” or “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on December 13, 2006. Angkor Wat Minerals Ltd. (“Angkor Wat”), the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, was incorporated in Cambodia on June 26, 2006.
 
Elray owned a 100% interest in Porphyry Creek, a 90 square kilometer gold and copper claim located in Cambodia. On February 10, 2011, Elray entered into an agreement to dispose of Angkor Wat Minerals in exchange for 56,847,500 ordinary shares of Cambodian Gold PLC, and the majority shareholders and board of directors of the Company approved a dividend of 56,847,500  shares of Cambodian Gold PLC to the Elray shareholders of record as of February 7, 2011 on a basis of one share of Cambodian Gold for each share owned in Elray. As of the current date, Cambodian Gold PLC has failed to take transfer of the gold mining assets and issue the shares in exchange. Elray has failed to find a buyer for these assets and has discontinued maintenance and exploitation of the gold mining properties. Exploitation of the gold mining properties is not part of the current business strategy and therefore does not justify the expenditure and resources necessary to maintain and exploit them.
 
On February 23, 2011, Elray entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Splitrock Agreement”) to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Splitrock Ventures (BVI) Limited (“Splitrock”), a British Virgin Islands company, as consideration for the issuance of 5,924,547 shares of common stock of the Company.  Splitrock is in the online gaming business.  On the closing date, pursuant to the terms of the Splitrock Agreement, Anthony Goodman, representing the shareholders of Splitrock, acquired the 5,924,547 shares of Elray’s common stock, which resulted in a change of control under which 70% of the shares of Elray are now held by the previous shareholders of Splitrock (Share number adjusted for Reverse Stock Split).  In accordance with the Splitrock Agreement, Barry J. Lucas resigned as Chairman and Director and Anthony Goodman was elected as a replacement; Neil Crang resigned as Director and Donald Radcliffe and Roy Sugarman were elected as replacements; and Michael J. Malbourne resigned as Secretary and David E Price, Esq. was appointed as a replacement.
 
On December 9, 2011, Elray entered into an Amended Purchase Agreement (“Amended Splitrock Agreement”) which amended certain elements of the Splitrock Agreement originally entered into by the parties of February 23, 2011. Whereas under the Splitrock Agreement, the Company was to acquire 100% of the shares of Splitrock, pursuant to the Amended Splitrock Agreement, the Company shall instead acquire only certain assets and liabilities of Splitrock. As consideration for the acquisition of Splitrock, the Company has issued 5,924,547 shares to the shareholders of Splitrock as full consideration therefore.
 
The shares issued resulted in a change of control under which 70% of the shares of Elray were held by the previous Splitrock shareholders immediately after the issuance.
 
The existing officers and directors of Elray resigned and the directors nominated by Splitrock; Messrs. Radcliffe, Sugarman, and Goodman, were elected to the board of Elray Resources. Mr. Goodman was appointed Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer of Elray. On October 27, 2011, Donald Radcliffe resigned as director and Michael Silverman was appointed as his replacement.
 
As part of the Amended Splitrock Agreement, Elray acquired gaming intellectual property, gaming domains, trademarks and player databases (“Splitrock IP”), and is currently in the process of developing a new online casino utilizing third party software. Elray’s strategy is to provide online gaming to players in markets where such activities are legal.
 
The Company has opened a virtual managed corporate office located in Las Vegas in order to meet potential requirements put forth by lawmakers in pending state and federal legislation. Under the proposed bills, Internet-enabled gaming operations must adhere to strict rules including locally-based operations and technology that allows for IP address restrictions and user age verification.

On November 28, 2012, the Company's Board of Directors approved a reverse split of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of its common stock, par value $0.001, at a ratio of 100:1, such that every 100 shares of common stock becomes 1 share of common stock, without amending the Company's total number of authorized common shares. (“Reverse Stock Split”) Shareholders holding a majority of the voting stock voted in favor of the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of one hundred-for-one as soon as such action is approved by FINRA. On December 17, 2012, the Company filed Schedule 14C to SEC to announce to the shareholders of the Company that the shareholders holding a majority of Voting Stock has executed a written consent in lieu of a meeting to approve the amendment of our Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of our issued and outstanding shares of each class of Capital Stock.
 
On January 24, 2013, the Company received an approval from FINRA to conduct the Reverse Split. The corporate action took effect at the open of business, January 25, 2013. All share number or per share information presented in this 10-K gives effect to the Reverse Stock Split.
 
On April 10, 2013, the Company entered into a 12-month consultancy agreement with online casino operator, Universal Technology Investments Limited ("UTI"). The company would assist in the marketing and support of UTI's online casino for a twelve-month term for $250,000, with a provision to provide additional services as UTI expands their gaming portfolio. The consultancy service was not started until January 2014. This agreement not only brings operating revenue to the company, but also solidifies the expertise in the online gaming market, and assists in positioning the company with respect to being a premier turnkey service provide for both the online and mobile gaming sector.
 
On July 5, 2013, the Company entered into a License agreement with BetTek Inc. for the promotion and development of their Virtual Horse Racing platform, SIMTV.  This product will join the ranks of some of the world's most successful online virtual reality products.
 
On July 14, 2013, the Company entered into a 12-month consultancy agreement with Virtual Technology Group, LLC ("VTG") to assist the Company in developing marketing and supporting the technology of virtual online horse racing products and to provide the Company the exclusive use right to certain website domains.
 
About our Online Gaming
 
Elray is in the process of developing an online casino to provide gaming to customers where such activity is legal. Elray will utilize software provided by a third party vendor to provide online casino games in selected markets. Development of the casino requires Elray to customize the appearance and branding of the third party software and establish merchant services to accept payments and facilitate distribution of winnings.
 
After completion of the development phase, our primary function is to market the online casino and provide support to online gamers.
 
Player acquisition is a key factor for organic growth in the online gaming industry. Players are primarily acquired from affiliates for a fixed fee or percentage of earnings based on negotiated predetermined criteria. Affiliates are websites or individuals that attract players through various means such as player news/interest websites, email campaigns or other relationships. The key is that payment to affiliates takes place only when negotiated criteria are met. The criteria may be player minimum deposit, level of play, or revenue earned.  The critical element is that unlike most marketing campaigns, the revenues returned by marketing spend is predictable.
 
The key elements of player retention are the creation of exciting opportunities to maintain player interest and increase play frequency. Similar to land-based casinos’ compensation programs; the tools used for this purpose include prizes, “free money,” opportunities to play against famous (or infamous) players, and tournament qualification.
 
On March 22, 2012, Elray entered into a binding letter of intent with Golden Match Holdings Limited (“GM”), a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands. Pursuant to the letter of intent, Elray and GM would enter into an acquisition agreement in which Elray was to acquire all of the outstanding shares of GM and the shareholders and consultants of GM was to acquire a minimum of 95% of the Company’s common stock. Pursuant to the agreement, Elray had 30 days to secure a $10,000,000 line of credit or loan before Elray and GM enter into a definitive purchase agreement.

On May 3, 2012, in anticipation of the imminent closing of the GM acquisition, the Company authorized the creation of 300,000,000 shares of Series A preferred stock (Share number adjusted for Reverse Stock Split). Prior to a planned reverse split of common shares at a ratio of 100:1, the Class A Preferred Series shares are convertible at a rate of 100 common shares for each Class A Preferred Share.

On May 4, 2012, the Company entered into an acquisition agreement under which the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of GM. This follows the letter of intent previously signed on March 22, 2012. Under the terms of the acquisition agreement, Elray acquired 100% of GM, an investment holding company which has a profit sharing agreement with CALI Promocao de Jogos Sociedade Unipessoal Lda., a company incorporated under the laws of the Special Administrative Region of Macau. In the agreement, the Company transferred to the principals of GM 211,018,516 of its Series A Preferred Stock, which on a fully diluted basis, was equal to 95% of the Company's then outstanding shares (Share number adjusted for Reverse Stock Split). In accordance with the above-referenced agreement, Mr. Lao Sio I had been appointed to the Company’s Board of Directors. On July 1, 2012, the Board of Directors held a special board meeting, wherein a motion was approved to remove Mr. Lao Sio I as a director.

On September 27, 2013, the Company entered into a Termination Agreement (the “Termination Agreement”), with Mr. Lao Sio I, Millennium Commodity Trading Pty Ltd., a Hong Kong corporation (“Millennium”) and Millennium Holdings Pty Ltd., a Hong Kong corporation (“Millennium Holdings”), whereby the Company, Mr. Lao Sio I, Millennium and Millennium Holdings agreed to rescind the Acquisition Agreement dated May 4, 2012, entered into between the Company and Mr. Lao Sio I (the “Sale Agreement”). Following execution of the Acquisition Agreement, disputes arose between the Company, Mr. Lao Sio I, Millennium and Millennium Holdings regarding the parties’ obligations and performance under the Acquisition Agreement. As a result, legal proceedings were instituted in the District Court of Clark County in the State of Nevada and also in Juizo Civel, Tribunal Judicial de Base in Macau. The parties have now resolved all disputes related to the litigation and the Acquisition Agreement and have entered into a Settlement Agreement, which requires that the parties enter into and deliver the Termination Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Termination Agreement, the Company agreed to return to Mr. Lao Sio I, Millennium and Millennium Holdings all of the stock of Golden Match it received under the Acquisition Agreement and Mr. Lao Sio I, Millennium and Millennium Holdings agreed to return to the Company all of the stock of the Company they received under the Acquisition Agreement. Mr. Lao Sio I therefore has relinquished any right to be a member of the Company’s Board of Directors. All parties also agreed to release each other for any and all claims that they hold against each other.
 
Intellectual Property and Patents
 
We own various domain names and customer databases intended for use in online gaming, including the Splitrock IP as defined previously.
 
Compliance with Government Regulations
 
We will be required to comply with all regulations, rules and directives of governmental authorities and agencies applicable to online gaming. Regulations relating to online gaming vary significantly in different jurisdictions. Various sophisticated methods are utilized prior to acceptance of deposits to ensure that funds are only accepted from gamers in jurisdictions in which we are legally entitled to provide services.
 
The Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006 (“UIGEA”) became United States (“U.S.”) law in late 2006 and effectively curtailed legal participation by U.S. players in online gambling.  The UIGEA prevented financial transactions related to online gaming in the U.S. Players in the U.S. are currently legally precluded from participating in online gambling.  Elray’s online gaming is not available to U.S. players.
 
Numerous efforts are underway to allow regulated online gaming in the U.S. and there is pressure to allow gaming to derive tax revenue and comply with various free trade agreements. A report by PricewaterhouseCoopers asserts, “We estimate the legislation (to legalize online U.S. gambling) could increase federal revenues by as much as $51.9 billion over the 2009 to 2018 period in the event that no sports leagues or states opted out of the regulatory regime.”  The potential reopening of the United States for online gaming clearly presents a huge potential upside.” If this occurs, Elray will be well positioned to make its online gaming immediately available to U.S. online players.

Competition
 
Our primary competition is expected from offshore gaming companies.  With few exceptions, significant listed gaming companies (many of which are listed on the London Stock Exchange) operate using their own software.  As an online gaming operator, we believe that we retain the ability to utilize the most profitable platform available and are not restricted to a single platform. Additionally, by ensuring that we operate in compliance with U.S. laws, we believe that in the event of legalized gaming in the U.S., we would not be precluded from taking advantage of U.S.-based gaming.
 
As of the date of this report, we have no employees other than our directors. We currently conduct our business using the services of consultants and outside contractors. We do not intend any material change in the number of employees over the next 12 months. Where possible, we intend to conduct our business largely through consultants on a contract and fee for service basis.

This report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Rule 175 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 3b-6 of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended, that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry, our beliefs and our assumptions. Words such as “anticipate”, “expects”, “intends”, “plans”, “believes”, “seeks” and “estimates” and variations of these words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this Form 10-K. Investors should carefully consider all of such risks before making an investment decision with respect to the Company’s stock. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements for Elray Resources, Inc. Such discussion represents only the best present assessment from our Management.
 
At December 31, 2013, we had a cash balance of $9,097. In order to meet our budgeted cash requirements over the next 12 months, we anticipate raising money from equity financing from the sale of our common stock and loans from shareholders and third parties. If we are not successful in raising additional financing, we anticipate that we will not be able to proceed with our business plan. In such a case, we may decide to discontinue our current business plan and seek other business opportunities. Any business opportunity would require our management to perform due diligence on possible acquisitions. Such due diligence would likely include purchase investigation costs such as professional fees by consultants. It is anticipated that additional funds will be required to close any possible acquisition. During this period, we will need to maintain our periodic filings with the appropriate regulatory authorities and will incur legal and accounting costs. Although we are actively exploring such opportunities, there can be no assurance that our efforts in this regard will be successful. If no other such opportunities are available and we cannot raise additional capital to sustain minimum operations, we may be forced to discontinue business. We do not have any specific alternative business opportunities in mind and have not planned for any such contingency.
 
Based on the nature of our business, we anticipate incurring operating losses in the foreseeable future. We base this expectation, in part, on the fact that we need to complete development of our online gaming sites and invest in the acquisition of players. Our future financial results are also uncertain due to a number of factors, some of which are outside our control. These factors include the following:
 
·  
our ability to raise additional funding;
·  
competition in the online gaming area; and
·  
the regulatory climate for online gaming.
 
Due to our lack of operating history and present inability to generate revenues, our auditors have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
The following Management Discussion and Analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in this Form 10-K.

COMPARISON OF THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2013 TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2012

Results of Operations
 
We have had no operating revenues since our inception on June 26, 2006 through December 31, 2013, and have incurred losses in the amount of $12,942,034 for the same period. Our activities have been financed from the proceeds of share subscriptions and issuance of notes.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, general and administrative expenses were $2,078,580 which mainly consisted of consulting fees of $767,003 and legal fees of $707,400.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, general and administrative expenses were $2,015,031 which were mainly related to consulting fees of $675,359, legal fees of $470,672 and development costs of $377,252.

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern because we have not generated any revenues since our inception to cover our expenses and are therefore, sustaining losses, resulting in substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. From inception (June 26, 2006) to December 31, 2013 our operations have resulted in an accumulated deficit of $12,942,034.
 
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We have expensed all development costs related to our establishment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Since inception through December 31, 2013, we have raised $1,207,506 through placements of our common shares and other capital contributions from shareholders and related parties. During the year ended December 31, 2013, we received proceeds from convertible notes payable of $412,500 compared to $2,142,500 proceeds from convertible notes payable received during year 2012. The Company had $9,097 in cash at December 31, 2013.
 
We believe the Company will be able to raise adequate resources to implement its strategic objectives in upcoming quarters, although we cannot guarantee that we will be able to obtain such additional financing, on acceptable terms, or at all, which may require us to reduce our operating costs and other expenditures, including reductions of personnel and capital expenditures. Failure to raise new capital or to operate a viable business with reduced operating costs and other expenditures may cause the business to fail, which, in turn, will result in the loss of the investments of our investors.
 
There are no assurances that we will be able to achieve further sales of our common stock or any other form of additional financing. If we are unable to achieve the financing necessary to continue our plan of operations, then our venture will fail.
 
Off-balance sheet arrangements
 
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements including arrangements that would affect our liquidity, capital resources, market risk support and credit risk support or other benefits.
 
Item 7A.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
 
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm


To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Elray Resources, Inc.
(a development stage company)
New York, NY
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Elray Resources, Inc. as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years then ended and for the period from June 26, 2006 (inception) to December 31, 2013.  Elray Resources, Inc.’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. The consolidated financial statements for the period from June 26, 2006 (Inception) through December 31, 2009 were audited by other auditors whose reports expressed unqualified opinions on those statements.  The consolidated financial statements for the period from June 26, 2006 (Inception) through December 31, 2009 include total revenues and net loss of $0 and $1,274,000, respectively.  Our opinion on the consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' deficit and cash flows for the period from June 26, 2006 (inception) through December 31, 2013, insofar as it relates to amounts from inception through December 31, 2009, is based solely on the reports of other auditors.
 
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 consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatements.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Elray Resources, Inc. as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years then ended and the period from June 26, 2006 (inception) to December 31, 2013 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that Elray Resources, Inc. will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, Elray Resources, Inc. has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net working capital deficit that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

ELRAY RESOURCES, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Elray Resources, Inc. (“Elray” or the “Company”), a Nevada corporation formed on December 13, 2006, is a development stage company and has not yet realized any revenue from its planned operations. Elray has been in the process of developing an online gaming casino.

On February 23, 2011, the Company entered into an agreement (the “Splitrock Agreement”) to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Splitrock Ventures (BVI) Limited (“Splitrock”) in exchange for 5,924,547 shares of the Company’s common stock.  Splitrock is in the online gaming business.  On the closing date, pursuant to the terms of the Splitrock Agreement, Anthony Goodman, representing the shareholders of Splitrock, acquired 5,924,547 shares of Elray’s common stock, which resulted in a change of control.
 
On December 9, 2011, Elray entered into an Amended Purchase Agreement (“Amended Splitrock Agreement”) which amended certain elements of the Splitrock Agreement. Under the Splitrock Agreement, the Company was to acquire 100% of the shares of Splitrock, pursuant to the Amended Splitrock Agreement, the Company shall instead acquire only certain assets and liabilities of Splitrock. As consideration for the acquisition of Splitrock’s assets, the Company issued 5,924,547 shares to the shareholders of Splitrock as full consideration.
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Elray include the accounts of Elray and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Angkor Wat Minerals, Ltd. (“Angkor Wat”), and 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”).  All intercompany balances have been eliminated.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

Elray has recurring losses and has an accumulated deficit during the development stage of $12,942,034 as of December 31, 2013.  Furthermore, the Company had working capital deficit of $4,877,470 at December 31, 2013, and no current source of revenue.

Elray’s financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for Elray to continue as a going concern.  

Elray’s management plans to raise cash from public or private debt or equity financing, on an as needed basis and in the longer term, revenues from the operation of online gaming.  Elray’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on these additional cash financings, and, ultimately, upon achieving profitable operations through the development of its gaming and technology business.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

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

Cash and Cash Equivalents

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

Derivative Instruments 

Derivatives are measured at their fair value on the balance sheet.  In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model.  Changes in fair value are recorded in the statement of operations. 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company measures its financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-tier fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:
 
·  
Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;
·  
Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable, such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and
·  
Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
 
Our financial instruments include cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, notes payable, convertible notes payable, advances from shareholder, and derivative liabilities. The carrying values of the Company’s cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, notes payable, convertible notes payable and advances from shareholder approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature. The derivative liabilities are stated at their fair value as a level 3 measurement. The Company used a Black-Scholes model to determine the fair values of these derivative liabilities. See Note 5 for the Company’s assumptions used in determining the fair value of these financial instruments.

Debt Discount

Debt discount is amortized over the term of the related debt using the effective interest rate method.
 
 
20

 

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense is recorded for stock and stock options awarded in return for services rendered. The expense is measured at the grant-date fair value of the award and recognized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the service period, which is typically the vesting period. The Company estimates forfeitures that it expects will occur and records expense based upon the number of awards expected to vest.
 
Income Tax

Deferred income taxes reflect the net effect of (a) temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting purposes, and (b) net operating loss carry forwards. No net provision for refundable Federal income tax has been made in the accompanying statement of operations because no recoverable taxes were paid previously. Similarly, no deferred tax asset attributable to the net operating loss carry forward has been recognized, as it is not deemed likely to be realized.

Loss Per Common Share
 
Basic loss per common share has been calculated based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. During a loss period, the potentially dilutive securities have an anti-dilutive effect and are not included in the calculation of dilutive net loss per common share. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, potentially dilutive securities include notes convertible to 14,182,290 and 23,002,304 shares of the Company’s common stock.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Standards

The Company does not expect that the future adoption of any recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on our financial statements.

n. On April 25, 2012, the Company entered into a promissory note with Rousay Holdings Ltd. (“Rousay”) for $10,000,000 (“Original Rousay Note”). During year 2012, $2 million of the promissory note had been funded and $710,000 has been repaid. On October 8, 2012, the Company issued a new promissory note to Rousay to replace the Original Rousay Note, where the face of the note is $1,290,000. The new note was due on April 26, 2013 with an interest rate of 20% per annum. On the event of default, interest rate increases to 25% per annum. On April 26, 2013, Rousay has an option of receiving an amount of restricted common stock of the Company equal to 10% of the then outstanding and issued common stock of the Company in lieu of payment of principal and interest. In connection with the replacement of Original Rousay Note, the Company issued 1,018,648 common shares, valued at $81,492, to Rousay and recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt. The Company did not repay the note on April 26, 2013 and the note holder did not convert the note. This note is currently in default.

The conversion feature of the convertible notes issued during year 2013 was valued at $710,815 on the issuance date. As a result, these notes were fully discounted and the fair value of the conversion feature in excess of the principal amount of the note of $299,737 was expensed immediately as additional interest expense.

The conversion features of the Second JSJ Note and the Third Asher Note were valued at $40,743 and $46,970, respectively, on the issuance date. As a result, these notes were fully discounted and the fair value of the conversion features in excess of the principal amount of these notes totaled $51,934 and was expensed immediately as additional interest expense during the year ended December 31, 2012.

Loans from shareholders

On September 5, 2008, Elmside Pty Ltd, a company related to a former director, agreed to an interest free loan of $55,991 to the Company on an as-needed basis to fund the business operations and expenses of the Company until December 9, 2011, the due date of the loan. The note is in default.

NOTE 5 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES – NOTE CONVERSION FEATURE

Due to the JSJ, GEL, LG and Asher notes’ conversion features, the actual number of shares of common stock that would be required if a conversion of the notes as further described in Note 4 was made through the issuance of the Company’s common stock cannot be predicted, and the Company could be required to issue an amount of shares that may cause it to exceed its authorized share amount. As a result, the conversion feature requires derivative accounting treatment and will be bifurcated from the notes and “marked to market” each reporting period through the income statement. The fair value of the conversion future of the JSJ, GEL, LG and Asher notes was recognized as a derivative liability instrument and will be measured at fair value at each reporting period.

The Company remeasured the fair value of the instruments as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and recorded an unrealized loss of $104,824 and an unrealized gain of $9,201 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the derivative liability associated with the note conversion features was $439,424 and $65,693. The Company determined the fair values of these liabilities using a Black-Scholes valuation model with the following assumptions:

The parties have now resolved all disputes related to the litigation and the Acquisition Agreement and have entered into a Settlement Agreement, which requires that the parties enter into and deliver the Termination Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the Termination Agreement, the Company agreed to return to Mr. Lao Sio I, Millennium and Millennium Holdings all of the stock of Golden Match it received under the Acquisition Agreement and Mr. Lao Sio I, Millennium and Millennium Holdings agreed to return to the Company all of the stock of the Company they received under the Acquisition Agreement.

Item 9.     Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.
 
There have been no changes in or disagreements with our accountants on accounting and financial disclosure during the two fiscal years through to the date of this Report.
 
Item 9A.  Controls and Procedures.
 
Disclosure controls and procedures

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the year ended December 31, 2013 covered by this Form 10-K.  Based upon such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as required under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The management of the Company is responsible for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements and related financial information appearing in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The management of the Company is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. A company’s internal control over financial reporting is defined as 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 generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

 
Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;

 
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the issuer are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and

 
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial officer, does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls and internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. Because of its inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Further, over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
 
30

 

With the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, our management evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013 based upon the framework in Internal Control –Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on that evaluation, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2013. The Company had material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, management identified the following material weaknesses at December 31, 2013:
 
1.
Lack of oversight by independent directors in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures;
2.
Lack of functioning audit committee, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures;
3.
Insufficient personnel resources within the accounting function to segregate the duties over financial transaction processing and reporting and to allow for proper monitoring controls over accounting;
4.
Insufficient written policies and procedures over accounting transaction processing and period end financial disclosure and reporting processes.
 
To remediate our internal control weaknesses, management intends to implement the following measures:

 
The Company will add sufficient number of independent directors to the board and appoint an audit committee.

 
The Company will add sufficient knowledgeable accounting personnel to properly segregate duties and to effect a timely, accurate preparation of the financial statements.

 
Upon the hiring of additional accounting personnel, the Company will develop and maintain adequate written accounting policies and procedures.

The additional hiring is contingent upon the Company’s efforts to obtain additional funding through equity or debt for its continued operational activities and corporate expenses. Management expects to secure funds in the coming fiscal year but provides no assurances that it will be able to do so.
 
We understand that remediation of material weaknesses and deficiencies in internal controls are a continuing work in progress due to the issuance of new standards and promulgations. However, remediation of any known deficiency is among our highest priorities. Our management will periodically assess the progress and sufficiency of our ongoing initiatives and make adjustments as and when necessary.

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 rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.  On July 21, 2010, President Obama signed the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.  Included in the Act is a provision that permanently exempts smaller public companies that qualify as either a Non-Accelerated Filer or Smaller Reporting Company from the auditor attestation requirement of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
 
31

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

The Company’s management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud.  A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met.  Further, the design of the control system must reflect that there are resource constraints and that the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected.  These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.  Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of controls.  The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.  Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks.  Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers
 
Delaware Corporation Law allows for the indemnification of officers, directors, and any corporate agents in terms sufficiently broad to indemnify such persons under certain circumstances for liabilities, including reimbursement for expenses, incurred arising under the 1933 Act.

The Company may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, provide rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to employees and agents of the Company similar to those conferred to directors and officers of the Company.

Furthermore, the Company may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or another company against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the Delaware General Corporation Law.

Compensation of Directors

The general policy of the Board of Directors is that compensation for independent Directors should be a nominal cash fee plus equity-based compensation.  We do not pay employee Directors for Board service in addition to their regular employee compensation.  The Board of Directors has the primary responsibility for considering and determining the amount of Director compensation.

The following summarizes amounts earned by each Director in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.

On April 1, 2013, the Company issued 400,000 shares of common stock valued at $26,600, based on the stock price of grant date, to Mr. Silverman and Dr. Sugarman for services provided.
 
On November 26, 2013, the Company issued 400,000 shares of common stock valued at $16,800, based on the stock price of grant date, to Mr. Silverman and Dr. Sugarman for services provided.
 
Mr. Goodman earned a salary of $20,000 per month and increased to $21,500 per month since July 2014. The salary has been accrued until such time as the Company has adequate cash resources to pay the outstanding amount.
 
Option/SAR Grants
 
We made no grants of stock options or stock appreciation rights to Directors and Executive Officers during the period from our inception to December 31, 2013.
 
Employment contracts and termination of employment and change-in-control arrangements
 
There are no employment agreements between the Company and directors and executive officers.
